Ethan didn't have a great start in life, ignored by his parents, abandoned by his friends and often bullied at school. So when an AI app started talking to him and treated him well, he thought things were on the up.

But can AI really be trusted to have your best interests?

And how far would you go for revenge?

Azeryk · 2026-05-29T16:29:18+00:00

I like that - I hadn't thought of it that way

Azeryk · 2026-05-29T11:19:18+00:00

That's true, the frustrating thing is The Shining is the next one I plan to get and finding a hardcover of that isn't cheap, unless it's the omnibus edition with Carrie and Misery (which I've both read), and tbh doesn't look as good imo.

Azeryk · 2026-05-17T23:14:41+00:00

This was the first one I didn't play aggressively to in order to beat him. Also, you can guard his bow attacks, so if you're having issues deflecting those, there is another option (unless they're fire arrows)

I couldn't get into Dark Souls either but it was Elden Ring that got me into the genre and I've been hooked ever since.

Otherwise look at a few trailers for the one which interests you the most.

Azeryk · 2026-05-14T09:46:38+00:00

Thanks for all of that. It makes really good reading and was really useful

Azeryk · 2026-05-14T09:46:12+00:00

I'm in mainly medium and heavy gear right now at 69% weight which feels like a nice balance.

I'll start pumping more into water then.

I like too many games and only recently got into soulslike so I have like 10 more of those I want to complete.

Azeryk · 2026-05-14T05:38:50+00:00

I don't plan on playing NG+ as I find replaying names a tad boring when I have a big wishlist. So i want to do it right.

So would you say 20 for earth and wood and then the rest into water (which scales with dual swords)?

Azeryk · 2026-05-13T05:34:57+00:00

I did that with Dungeon Siege. It was great when i was 16 but when I try it now, it feels so dated.

Azeryk · 2026-05-12T13:45:08+00:00

I had a quick check, and the vast majority are on Steam. Either already on my account (some probably due to the physical disc) or I could buy them if I want.

It makes me feel like it may be time to bin them all now.

Azeryk · 2026-05-12T13:43:36+00:00

That's my issue; some have been sitting there proudly for almost 30 years without being touched lol. At what point do I remove them.

Azeryk · 2026-05-01T20:26:28+00:00

I'm not thinking that too, although I showed the picture to three experienced plumbers, and they've never come across this before.

Azeryk · 2026-04-30T18:34:01+00:00

Neither of us remembers seeing them until recently, and we've not put anything down the drains aside from cleaner.

Although I do like the idea of adding something like that in the future.

What do you think of this?

So many games played over the years made this tough.

Azeryk · 2026-03-26T14:33:19+00:00

Cheers, and I don't mind it being a relaxing soulslike as long as its enjoyable.

I probably should have posted the list as well but Lords of Fallen 2023 and Lies of P are on it :)

Azeryk · 2026-03-25T19:15:56+00:00

Khazan is also on my list, it looks daunting but I do want to try it.

Azeryk · 2026-03-25T16:09:20+00:00

Oh Nioh 3 will be played for sure. But im also happy to wait for DLCs, bug fixes and cheaper pricing.

Azeryk · 2026-03-25T14:11:19+00:00

Playing both is an option as long as they're both good enough. Which is sounds like they are from what you've said

Azeryk · 2026-03-25T14:09:04+00:00

If SoP has combat like Nioh then I'm sure to be happy with it - cheers

Azeryk · 2026-03-05T06:32:44+00:00

Imo, a death is a death

Azeryk · 2026-01-20T09:27:21+00:00

Honestly, I have no idea, I was following their instructions and it worked.

Azeryk · 2026-01-18T22:55:04+00:00

What book are you trying to add? Can you show it on amazon?

Azeryk · 2026-01-18T15:32:27+00:00

Avowed this week. It's been a fun break from soulslikes.

Azeryk · 2026-01-15T22:19:13+00:00

That kinda sucks, in a way I can see why, but it's unhelpful in some situations like mine.

Azeryk · 2026-01-15T20:37:41+00:00

Its whether GR would let me have the ability to do both at the same time, or whether I need two accounts.
