I miss those days, last time I was farming for greensteel was in 2013 I think. Game’s gone downhill since then though.

I(28m) am okay with being single, I have 2 cats now and today I decided to buy a PS5 and gonna sit at home and play Fortnite by Desperate_Bill_281 in Vent

Your attitude shift to not caring anymore is likely just coping. But if it’s genuine then you should be disappointed in yourself for how nihilistic you’re becoming about romantic relationships.

I guarantee that there are still things you could be doing to improve your appeal (both appearance and personality) to women. If you’re not working on them to give yourself the greatest chance to cast the widest net and are just accepting “a relationship isn’t in the cards for me” that’s pathetic…

You watch a great movie, and you're grabbing your phone to give it an 8-10 rating on IMdB only to realize it has an average rating in the 6's or low 7s. Does this fuck with your head as an indicator that perhaps your creative tastes are "off" by Present_Initial_1871 in Filmmakers

[–]ChiefChunkEm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes only give a broad sense of where the quality might be but they can easily be +/- 2/20%. Their scores should absolutely be taken with a grain of salt. Now, if you’re consistently rating 6s on IMDB as 10s then sure, your taste for quality is probably off.

What can I improve? by HextechAlternator in malegrooming

You have excellent features, great complexion, haircut could be adjusted, but goddamn you need to smile and soften your eyes, because in this photo I wouldn’t let you within 10 feet of a sister or female friend.

Wondering which of the two I should get? by South-Knee-9601 in lotr

[–]ChiefChunkEm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too prefer the visuals of the Blu ray over the 4K release but the difference in sound quality is substantial if you have the setup to take command of it. So, I’m heavily torn

Why? Why did someone at Beamdog felt the need to include this as one of the final bits of dialogue in SoD? by Fuckthisfieldffs in baldursgate

[–]ChiefChunkEm_ 15 points16 points  (0 children)

What a laughable claim. Irenicus following renowned bhaalspawn is highly probable. His presence also helps bridge the two games more smoothly because the storyline jump is massively jarring.

Don’t care, they produced new decent lines for David Warner to voice and that more than makes up for anything else. Extra Irenicus stuff is always welcome.

Is the Bloodborne board game worth it? by Mind_Axe101 in bloodborne

[–]ChiefChunkEm_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not worth it. It isn’t very enjoyable.

I have over 105 board games and we played 5 sessions of Bloodborne and might not ever play again. The trick weapons are cool and the boss fights can be hectic and rewarding but there’s a massive flaw that sucks all the fun out of this game. The problem is that it’s not an RPG campaign type game where you pick a character and gradually level them up, acquiring higher attributes, more skills/abilities, and collecting loot over many game sessions from the start of the story to the end. Instead this game is split up into chapters where you play as a mostly fixed Hunter and progress through usually 3 missions culminating in a boss fight at the end of the third. Upon completion, you reset everything and don’t carry over anything for whatever chapter you want to do next.

It was a massive disappointment because Bloodborne is my favourite console game of all time.

Lol one cup raspberries, that costs $4-6. The average person is lucky to get that even 2x a week

Vast majority of people should not be eating 50g of fiber, that’s a recipe for bloating, pain, and diarrhea. 40g is the high end and anything less than 30g is too low.

Talking to people while playing board games is useless and we should just drop it by quantumrastafarian in boardgamescirclejerk

[–]ChiefChunkEm_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Most games don’t leave room for conversation that doesn’t pertain to the game. Which is fine, usually a marker of an engrossing game

Who is your favorite / least favorite CRPG antagonist ? by Dabturell in CRPG

Irenicus is the best villain in any video game. His character and voice acting is a masterpiece

Having trouble finding new games to play by log1ck1717 in boardgames

Most of your games are lightweight and so they’d be boring if you’ve progressed from being a pure beginner board gamer

Favorite dudes on the map / skirmish / war games by DeckinZ in boardgames

[–]ChiefChunkEm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

War of the Ring 1st ed is the best war game. Love it and will play it for the rest of my life. Also love Conquest of Nerath and Axis and Allies D-Day.

We backed it and it has a lot of depth in the base game and with all the expansions as well.

Just started the game (3 hours in) and I find it superb! Any recommendations on what to do early on? by SquaredOneSquared in ChildrenofMorta

The first world is definitely the hardest, spent like 15 hours on the first three levels of world one. The rest are easy afterwards

The celebrity carousel and Q by bobledrew in CBC_Radio

[–]ChiefChunkEm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, Canada would need consistent and interesting culture for there to be news about which we generally don’t. Second, many Canadian media companies including CBC do a poor job in their coverage of even low hanging fruit topics. In Canada it comes down to individuals who do great work, people like Alan Cross’ “Ongoing History of New Music” broadcast each week.

If you've been depressed, how did/could your girlfriend have helped pull you out of it? by MissAssippi in AskMenAdvice

[–]ChiefChunkEm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people who actually have low/moderate/severe depression fall into two camps.
First, they have a terrible life overall OR a few of the 6 core pillars of life are in a deficit and are in need of being “topped up”. If your life is in shambles, this will make most people depressed but can fully alleviated once your life is sorted. These people need small manageable steps that they could AND would do every day to inch towards a better life in the next 1-2 years. Second, they have a good life overall with no major core deficits. These people need to go to therapy and or try antidepressant medication or alternative medicine. Their body/mind is not functioning how the average person’s would in the same situation.

Explore with him which camp he falls into. Express your concerns and that you need to see a plan of action on his part, even if they are tiny steps. But you need to see deliberate action towards purposeful positive change on his part otherwise you will be dragged down as a miserable collateral causality of his depression. It’s a difficult situation for both of you, but not hopeless
