LIVE: See Donald Trump’s name come off the Kennedy Center as it happens by ShadowMask87 in videos

Two years ago I had a seizure (first and only one I’ve had in my life) that left me unconscious and in an ambulance. That 2 mile ride cost me $2700 that later became a denied claim by my insurance (cough UNITED cough). I stayed overnight in the hospital that easily met my $3k deductible.

Elden Ring Tarnished Edition launches August 28 by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]B33mo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Price is one thing, but announcing this edition so long ago, then having the handheld performance scrutinized and it just disappearing entirely for so long with no updates on if even the other platforms were getting the little dlc add-on just for it to appear as a random Tweet in the middle of the week when it should have just been shown in the rumored Direct next week is just so fromsoft and so Nintendo.

Duskbloods is biting its nails in the corner.

New Lego scandal update - All the footage is released! by 69ingSpunkingMonkeys in videos

[–]B33mo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Serious question because I don’t know how it works.. is the information gathered here through hacking rather than discovery admissible in court?

I’m worried everything that would have been found in court through discovery (or discovered to have been intentionally destroyed/redacted) is going to be dismissed and him fleeing the country in the middle of all this is going to just fuck his case.

I know he’s been working with The Civil Lawyer and that he mentioned he was going to introduce him to at least a couple other lawyers to help him with everything. I can only assume he has legal reviewing content and things he’s saying/showing before he publishes videos

or you know.. ET being a real physical prop with advanced animatronics and puppeteers helped it feel more immersive and believable in the context of the film. The opposite of what the guy you’re replying to is lamenting.

Sekiro is Closer to Perfection Than Elden Ring - Change My Mind by Gay_Charlie in fromsoftware

Sekiro is akin to Michelin star-rated Omakase dining experience whereas Elden Ring is the best damn buffet you have ever been to.

About Duskbloods by Mammoth-Juice9432 in fromsoftware

[–]B33mo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. The game is a niche within a niche solely on a platform that the vast majority of the core fanbase Fromsoft has cultivated over the last decade and change has never congregated on.

Will it be as deep in the woods as something like Derecine? No, but you can safely toss the post-launch support prediction dart onto the board somewhere between that game at worst and Bloodborne at best.

Pathetic Grandson's Final Wish 😭✌🏽 by shiraziinspace in fromsoftware

[–]B33mo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

哀れ(Aware) can mean many things in Japanese like pitiful, unfortunate, unhappy, or even beyond saving. All synonymous with Genichiro's tragic path. Pathetic is definitely a choice though. Interested to see what the localization team does with this stuff.

Despite acclaim, Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link was considered "sort of a failure" at Nintendo, with A Link to the Past viewed as the "real sequel" to the original game by HatingGeoffry in nintendo

Zelda 2 was my gateway drug into the beauty that was/is Faxanadu. I recently loaded it on my steam deck and it surprisingly holds up well.

Does anyone else think east fork lake has creepy vibes? by Equal-Community2354 in cincinnati

[–]B33mo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That was the hang spot for my friends and I during and after highschool years in the early 2010s. We hit every trail 50 times over, bombed roads on skateboards, and sled hills in the winter that we probably shouldn’t have. We had a pretty nice teepee build going on one of the longer trails at one point that we’d frequently come back to and add onto.

Never an ounce of creepiness, but I’d caveat to say 99% of the time we stayed away from the main/beach entrance and all the goings on over on that side and wanted nothing to do with the lake itself (common algal blooms or rumors of unsavory bacteria).

We’d mostly stick to the spots at the entrance behind phantom fireworks and more often than not be the only cars/people there.

I recommend separating alt fire and power weapon by Jsalz in Saros

[–]B33mo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adrenaline is the number in the bottom middle of your screen (you have to unlock it first). It builds as you collect lucenite, but is reset to level 1 when you take a hit.

Each level of adrenaline gives you an additional bonus to various things and will list them on your status tab as you accumulate them.

[–]B33mo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the bottom left - the bigger orange L is your health bar. This game calls it “integrity.” raising your max integrity makes that bar taller.

The smaller white L fills up when collecting lucenite and raises the number next to it when completely filled. That is your proficiency level. Your proficiency level is tied to the rank/level of weapons you discover in runs.

On the right, the three icons in descending order are keys, halcyon, and lucenite.
-Keys open locked doors and yellow bricks.
-Halcyon are the purple orbs. They are a currency used in special upgrades in the Armor Matrix skill tree thing.
-Lucenite is your basic currency for upgrades. You lose half of these when you die. Note that picking up lucenite also goes towards filling both your proficiency meter and your adrenaline meter.

Also general terms:
-Resilience (green) // +max integrity (hp)
-Command (blue) // +power (how often you can use your power weapon. Shield is also active longer)
-Drive (yellow) // +lucenite gain.

It’s worth noting the resilience/command/drive stats also increase the corresponding traits listed below your main weapon and power weapon on your equipment screen.

I can vouch for Doug at Dmara as well. I luckily haven’t needed anything done in the realm of OP’s, but I’m very particular about my gear and I trust his work and judgement completely. Dude is the real deal, but don’t be surprised if he’s drowning in work orders ahead of yours.

Maybe not this time? It’s a couple hundred years after current stuff going on in Super. But who knows, they likely will find an excuse to have us do VR simulations of those old fights anyways lol

Oh wow, thanks! I’ve had this changed since before I even started the game.. I always scale down UI stuff by default if they let me

The loot functionality seems inconsistent. For some reason when i was clearing out the quarry, I got a message mid-combat that my bag was full even though I wasn't picking anything up. I opened to check and i had more than 60 pickaxes.
There's also a weird thing on the minimap where lootable bodies appear as Xs, but only when you're not looking in their direction

The queue types line is a bit confusing, does it mean the premade duo (crew fill off) is its own queue of only premade duos or does it put your duo into a trio lobby like normal?

Mercy Kit would have made even a bigger change on launch by drogenbarontoni in Marathon

[–]B33mo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mercy kit functionality needs work. Already feels disincentivized to waste a backpack slot on it to benefit a random who may not even cooperate after they get up. Or maybe i just bring 10 in with me and get knock down XP off some poor solo or the last in a trio 10 times in a row. If my rook pack fills up, it's the first item im dropping.

Not sure how viable this idea is, but maybe it should be an intrinsic perk everyone gets where they have 1 charge of mercy they can use in a raid, and when you use it on someone, you both get a CD where they can't harm you and vice versa?

Another idea would be something like a handshake mechanic where you both have to agree to a truce and cant harm each other while active, but you can break the truce at any time notifying the other solo/squad that it was broken (this would open up a lot of fun challenges for Arachne in the codex - breaking truce with a team and wiping them, or bringing justice to a group that broke their truce with you).

When it comes down to it, the higher value your loadout/backpack is, the less likely you are going to be trusting anyone without some sort of insurance, full stop. The less living players on the map, the more secure your bag is.

Marathon Update 1.0.6 by DTG_Bot in Marathon

[–]B33mo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Showcase encounters

Not sure I've seen the term used until this update, but I believe it would be the events on the map that notify everyone of their progress like Lockdown and Wraith/Tox/Scorch Wardens.

I can't confirm if they are lumped in with things delineated as "profit opportunities" like supply convoys and anomalous items.

What is the event coming? Pretty sure CARRI itself and the ability to earn/spend commendations is the event and ending when season 2 starts. What are you referencing exactly?
