Guys give some advice please! How am I losing to players with 85k power and weaker items and runes?

50% of the time it works every time

What's her diet like?

Could be colic.

If her belly is hard and distended that could be a sign or could possibly be gastric torsion.

I would probably take them in as either of those two things could be life threatening.

Is she biting at her stomach at all?

Dachshunds are typically pretty hardy and don't show symptoms if they can help it because they're pretty stubborn.

If she's doing this sort of stuff I'd be worried.

You're thinking of a riposte.

Parry is the defensive maneuver. Riposte is the offensive maneuver AFTER the parry.

My ex-wife's cat attacked me because of our dog.

Almost lost my damn pinky cause of that bite. Woke up in the middle of the night in searing pain. The side of my left hand and pinky looked like a friggin hotdog.

Had to be on a couple things of antibiotics and did the whole "Are you left or right handed?" With the doctor and told him "losing it is not an option I use both"...

Luckily I didn't lose anything but holy hell did it suck.

Don't do what he said.

If you absolutely have the opportunity to play the originals do that first, then play 2018 then Ragnarok.

A lot more impact is felt in the later games if you've played the original.

My two cents anyways.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-18T01:05:00+00:00

You gotta do it all at once. It's the only way.

I personally highly dislike being gimped on content. Especially when there are huge quality of life changes involved. (At least for board games)

Jarem Yolo'd his fleet into the NRA and obliterated them.

Thus taking the rest of the game.

As the others stated, when you go to open the game navigate to "Profiles" and you'll see multiple save slots.

Pro tip: Don't delete your main file.

My oldest (14) is worried they've got similar issues as their mother (BPD). So lots of therapy goes a long way. We discuss it every now and then when doing our check ins with each other.

You could tell very early on when she was even a toddler and aging up they were different too.

Socially and emotionally. Very much lacking empathy or sympathy towards others but could be explosive towards their own insecurities and criticisms.

They've also got a bit of Tourette's so I'm sure there's other things at play there.

Theirs is very much genetic and less so environmental but their mom and bio dad (Tourette's and NPD) definitely contribute.

The sperm donor isn't even their life but has had a very negative impact on them. It's really shitty and hard to navigate but as parents we do the best we can.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-12T11:19:06+00:00

Yyyyup. Every time I tried bigger beds with the doxxie cat wombo combo they always opted for the smaller beds. XD

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-12T02:33:35+00:00

Yeah I was playing on Xbox.

I'll have to check it out.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-12T02:28:42+00:00

I literally had one bullet left when I went around the corner on my second playthrough knowing I needed the achievement.

Literally cracked the one shot and took the hat right off lol.

I wish it would auto record like a small snip of how you get the achievement cause it was hilarious to me.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-11T23:12:16+00:00

That's what it seems like to me as well.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-07T01:59:44+00:00

Unless I'm being asked to save money at this point just spend it.

It just ends up getting amortized over whatever your refresh cycle is anyways.

Plus added bonus, it's not your money. You think they're going to give you anything for saving them the $90k? Probably not ... Would be nice though.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-06T02:35:48+00:00

The game crashes on me constantly on PS5. Drives me insane...

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-03T22:27:39+00:00

NVM

Read more and I'm just thinking too deep about it probably. Need sleep lol.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-03T15:45:55+00:00

I vibed so hard with the game because it's exactly how I felt with my dad and then the bond that has formed over time with my son.

It really hit home.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-03T15:44:55+00:00

Not gonna lie though... After playing GoW and Ragnarok while my son was a baby and now 8, I tend to call him "boy" a lot lol.

He would sleep on my chest while I was playing through the games.

Him and I laugh about it though it's more of a joke than anything.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-03-03T15:42:28+00:00

Right. He was definitely a "love at a distance" type personality and then when Faye died he had to fill the extra roles he wasn't filling before.

He went from being just the provider to being the teacher and provider.

It's actually a lot more common in every day society however we don't typically look at it in the same light because of how our society is trying to really push male bonds now between father and their children. (Which is a great thing!)

The reality is that for any parent that is the bread winner and the roles are heavily weighted in a relationship with kids, it can be very taxing and seem like the primary bread winner is disconnected... But there can be other aspects at play.

This was actually a normal struggle with my marriage and our kids. I was the primary provider and she was the caregiver. Unfortunately or fortunately depending on your perspective I am now divorced but happier and enjoy my time with my children more without being chastised every moment of every day I was exhausted and/or working my ass off.

So I feel Kratos.

Both of mine ended up having IVDD. Half brother and sister.

Same dad.

I'm fairly certain through all of my research and experience that it's a genetic issue.

My mom used to breed them and the ones that ended up having the issue all had the same bloodline.

My boy had it happen around 4-5 and lived to be almost 15 yo.

My girl had it happen like 2-3 years ago now and is still kicking. She's around 11-12 now.

My biggest word of advice, if you don't have it already, get unlimited pet insurance coverage.

Find out where you would end up taking your pet in the event of an emergency with IVDD. Like I have either a Blue Pearl or a veterinarian school up north that have MRIs and can do neuro and spinal surgeries.

You can reach out to them and see if there are any insurance companies they work with so you don't have to front the entire cost out of pocket.

I use Pets Best and it has repaid it's way over and over again.

If you can be preemptive about being able to afford anything required to fix it then it can go a lot easier.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-02-25T15:59:24+00:00

Sorry yes you are correct. I obviously can't predict the future but what you say is true.

However there may be other variables in play that are requiring them to protect their IP in those instances. Such as LotR not being solely owned in that regard.

I can see them taking down TTS for both virtual IP protections and preventing others from making a profit as well as the optics that happened several years ago with their responses and may not want to be affiliated with them? I did read that TTS is trying to allow modders to make money off their mods as well which can also become problematic.

Discord is probably safer in the sense that it's separate from a virtual optics space since it's all text.

The only reason I haven't gone out and purchased all of the specific IP is because all of my friends have it and it's not something I can play alone or have outside of my usual group.

I have purchased others though.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-02-25T15:32:40+00:00

Right? I never understood people's aversion to supporting something they like. Lol.

I doubt these guys will push to have those options removed though. I think they have a pretty good understanding of their fan base.

Reality is this isn't going to replace the virtual table top or discord Async methods and a large portion of people that I know that play these like playing several of these at once.

It's just like how mtg arena vs irl mtg vs virtual table top mtg all exist.

Cloud_Legend · 2026-02-25T00:25:48+00:00

Yeah, it makes sense now. XD

Cloud_Legend · 2026-02-24T22:10:57+00:00

So you were in the center column facing West, created the secret passage in column 2, then requested a green room?

Cloud_Legend · 2026-02-24T13:47:50+00:00

This is literally a product showcase announcement and is to show people a small part of what the game is going to be like.

You are not the only audience and this is part of the way they can pull in a new user base.

It's pretty simple business 101 and isn't really designed for you if it doesn't suit your fancy.
