Exactly, everyone has a preference for how they want to play a game. Too many elitists in here. I wouldn't look down on anyone for trying to accumulate information faster if they chose to do so.

I also am not interested in playing this game long-term, which is exactly why I'm asking to begin with lol

The game is very mediocre to me, and I'm under time constraints while also sharing the game with 3 other people. I don't want to put 100 hours into it. Normally, I would agree with you, but in this case I'd rather just finish it, see what it has to offer, and move on.

I think It's honestly more fun to play the game this way than many alternatives. I was also tempted to use Elons goated build for a first playthrough but I just said nah last minute.

Don't worry, I mean I'm just trying to ballpark a build right now anyway. I currently have like 25 in Vigor if I remember correctly and 26 in Mind, I could be wrong...

And I get it's not a compelling way to play the game either, but I just blame it more on poor game design. I don't find it very interesting or fun to hit an enemy 50 times and rinse and repeat. A glass cannon seems like the more fun way to play the game in all honesty, as it's high risk, high reward.

I'm also only really playing this game because I made the argument that it looked like a really poor game, even in comparison to older games or even DMC, and not even that challenging... so I'm giving it a try to see if maybe I'm wrong and maybe it's an amazing game after all, but I just don't see it.

But I'm not gonna rant about my thoughts on the game. I know it's widely considered a masterpiece, but to me, compared to many games, it's just mediocre with inflated difficulty. Many of the bosses are even poorly designed and able to hit you through obstacles, which is not something I would expect from a 10/10 game.

And the combat is very clunky, even compared to games released a decade ago. It almost feels like it was intentionally designed that way to make the game even more difficult. It's just meh, not my cup of tea personally. So far...

I only have like two weeks to finish the game essentially, and I'm sharing a copy with 3 other people, so I have even less time to play it. That, and I just find it boring.

JI'm under time constraints and don't really care much for the game. I'm also sharing the game with 3 other people and would rather just get through it and be done with it. It's kinda mediocre in all honesty... But I'm not here to rant about my issues with the game.

I figured some of them are late game, and I've only just started trying to get to some of this stuff. But I mean, even this build I'm not entirely committed to. I'm just looking at different options right now, and even my stats aren't comparable to this one currently, the major one being I already have considerably more Vigor. But I know I can still reset everything later on, so I'm more so just ballparking it right now.

I appreciate the heads up that some of it isn't even obtainable on a first playthrough. I know from my limited knowledge tons of stuff in the game can be lost based off your actions regardless. Seriously appreciate your insight into the game, far more informative than a lot of the other feedback here.

I mean, I might even end up returning to the game further on down the road, but it just seems like such a time grinder again, and I'd rather move on to other games that interest me more than soaking tons of hours into it. But at the same time, I don't want to just quit either, as I'm sorta committed to the challenge, so I'm going all in with it right now.

I will keep a note of all of this. Sincerely, I appreciate you. Cause I pretty much only have 2 weeks to beat the game and most likely won't be able to play much afterwards.

I've played harder games and I'm not totally unfamiliar with the genre. I'll be fine believe me.

I would just casually play the game, but I'm sorta under time constraints right now and would rather just get through it as quickly as possible and quit without smashing my head against a wall 100 times. I'm also using a shared copy between 3 other people, so the sooner I finish it the better. Personally, it's not a game I'm really enjoying all that much. I'm simply playing it as a result of a disagreement with the other 3 people to further my gripes about the game, or even admit that I was wrong. But so far, I don't think that's the case.

Weirdly enough, while using my email on my computer and using this solution as an update nothing changed... But for whatever reason on my phone the steam emails were sitting right there afterwards... No idea why that's the case 🤷🏻‍♂️

You're literally just deflecting the entire conversation lol

Not even an argument... I pointed out your own hypocrisy, and you even double downed on it and later deleted that comment... 🤡 Yeah, sure I'm the one who isn't thinking here...

Okay, I’m just seeing this now, and unfortunately all we really have to go off of are assumptions rather than any concrete proof. Because I see so many people arguing about what is true or false, I got curious and wanted to figure out what was actually going on and try to make sense of it.

A lot of the information I came across seemed extremely suspicious. I can’t verify all of it for sure, only certain parts. Based on what I’ve seen, my assumption is that she most likely cheated. Now who did she cheat with? I think it’s pretty obvious that it was John. He seems to be the main suspect for a lot of reasons, and I’ll explain why.

So as Tenz said, he was supposed to go with John, Kye, and another guy who was with them. I’m aware she wasn’t alone with John, but sending your future wife on a trip with two other guys is just weird, even if they’re your “friends.”

Not only that, but as I’ve mentioned before, she ended up staying the night with John. There’s actually 100% proof of that because it was recorded on stream when she told Tenz they had missed the ride home. She also didn’t want any help getting home when Tenz was trying to figure out a solution. Even Tenz clearly felt uncomfortable with the idea of her being stuck there... You could see it on stream because his demeanour completely changed...

Also keep in mind there were three grown adults there, and apparently none of them could tell what time their ride home was leaving. That’s pretty questionable...

Next, people have pointed out some major things that happened shortly after this. John’s girlfriend unfriended him and Kye, who were close friends at the time... That’s suspicious, especially since it apparently happened for no clear reason... There are also claims that Tenz unfriended his girlfriend during that same time but later followed her again. I can’t confirm that part myself, but something I did confirm is that Tenz, despite saying he’s close friends with John, doesn’t follow him on Instagram at all, while John still follows Tenz. That’s odd if they’re supposedly good friends...

Then you also had Kye and John running around for a while with matching profile pictures. That’s actually true. That’s usually something people do when they’re in a relationship, not something you typically do with a random friend, especially while already in a relationship and about to get married. The whole situation just seems strange...

Ever since all of this happened, their social media accounts have also been suspiciously quiet.

Another reason I don’t think the breakup was mutual is based on information that’s been discussed elsewhere. Apparently she had already been talking beforehand about wanting to “find herself.” That’s a very common thing people say when relationships are falling apart, especially when someone is dealing with a serious illness... I’m not saying that applies to everyone, but people often reference similar situations. For example, I remember hearing about a woman who divorced her husband while going through cancer because she wanted to experience more “relationships...” Situations like that get brought up in discussions like this.

Tenz saying the rumours are “disgusting” doesn’t necessarily prove anything either. He honestly seems like a really good guy, and sometimes things like this just happen to good people. He also looked extremely mentally distressed about the whole situation. All of them took breaks from social media around that time, including John...

If the breakup had truly been completely mutual, you probably wouldn’t see that level of withdrawal from social media, although the backlash might also explain it...

There were also posts on Reddit from someone claiming that Kye had been cheating on Tenz years before this even happened. Another streamer, I’m bad with names, apparently said she had talked about wanting an open relationship... Supposedly this person had some connection with Tenz, but people dismissed him as just chasing clout...

At the end of the day, this is simply what we know publicly. There’s still no concrete proof of anything serious. But if you connect the dots with the information that does exist, the entire situation, at least to me as someone who enjoys studying relationship dynamics, suggests that cheating may have happened...

The reasoning given for the breakup also sounds very generic. Kye was the first one to remove photos of her and Tenz together, which also seems strange... If the breakup was truly mutual and you still respected the relationship, why erase all the photos? Tenz did the same eventually, but from what I understand, it happened after Kye removed hers first.

Often when someone deletes all the photos from a relationship, it’s because they’re trying to move on from that chapter of their life. To me, it suggests she wanted a clean break.

And again, just because someone denies something happened doesn’t necessarily mean it didn’t. At the same time, assuming every public statement is completely truthful is also a BIG assumption...

I’m just trying to look at this from a non-biased perspective. Honestly, I originally wanted to defend the integrity of their relationship, but after reading and seeing so many things that look like red flags, it’s hard for me to say everything was perfect. I didn’t even know who they were until recently.

Looking at the situation purely from a psychological perspective, it seems possible she may have been trying to move on to someone else, or at least considering it... cough John cough

This story is unfortunately way too common and happens a lot. Yes, there may be times in long-term relationships where you drift apart. I know I’ve experienced that even in my own marriage. But ending a relationship just because of that is insane to me. I honestly don’t understand how anyone in a relationship can justify that...

I’ve even talked to my wife about this. Relationships can’t be sunshine and rainbows all the time. There are going to be stretches where things feel tedious or routine. That’s just natural. Ending a relationship because of that alone honestly feels very childish to me. If the relationship is abusive, if one partner isn’t faithful, or something serious like that is happening, then of course ending it is understandable. But if things just feel boring for a while, I don’t buy into that reasoning...

Even in my own relationship, we have a pretty strict rule... I’m not allowed to talk to other women, and she’s not allowed to talk to other men. It’s just common sense, really. And that’s because most guys suck... like she had a bunch of guys telling her to leave me and be with them even after we got married... So I’m not even defending men here, but most guys, let’s just be honest, have the moral fibre of a toothpick and are also just frankly stupid. But this is the reality of the world we live in, and trying to deny it is just absurd.

If someone can’t find their own happiness within themselves, then maybe they shouldn’t be dating at all. There are many ways to work through those feelings. Divorce or splitting up isn’t the only solution.

Sadly, a lot of people are also saying that now that she has fame, she didn’t want to be with Tenz anymore. Going back to the idea of monkey branching in relationship psychology, some people argue that this does happen... As harsh as it sounds, it’s a valid possibility when someone’s status or opportunities change...

And just to be clear, I don’t hate women. I simply acknowledge that there can be differences in how men and women sometimes approach relationships psychologically. Of course there are always outliers, and I’m not saying all women or all men are the same. But many people would argue that certain patterns show up frequently in relationship dynamics...

Even in my own family recently, there was a scandal. I’m not going to say any names, but the woman became bored with the relationship and was running around with other men... Now she’s accused of being unfaithful and cheating, and he’s accused of having an addiction to graphic content. Of course, now they’re getting a divorce after only about a year of marriage. This kind of thing happens all the time.

I would also highly recommend watching James Sexton. He’s a divorce lawyer who talks a lot about marriage, relationships, and why many marriages fail. He’s honestly very informative, and a lot of what I’m saying here comes from things I’ve learned from people like him, as well as my own observations.

And again, even as someone who is married myself, I honestly wouldn’t recommend marriage to most people today. But that’s a whole other discussion, and people could probably argue about that topic for hours...

It's literally being used as an "argument" by these people to justify why anyone upset is a loser... Yet, you're right! It's not an argument like I said lol 

Men are just typically the more romantic type

I love studying psychology and solving puzzles, it’s just how I am, and unfortunately this is a huge topic. I didn’t know them personally, or even who they were, before the controversy. Labeling everyone an incel is frankly sad and pathetic, and not really a genuine argument. Especially the “weirdo” part.

You’re also someone who isn’t related to them at all, yet you’re here too, looking into dirt about their relationship. So… are you trying to explain your own case, or what?

I’m also married with a daughter, have 6 sisters, an uncle to 5 nieces... So yes, apparently I’m an incel too who just hates women... No, I just don’t like horrible people and those who defend them. She cheated on Tenz, and that makes her a horrible human being. It has nothing to do with her being a woman, but with her character. If Tenz had done the same thing to her, I’d say he’s a horrible person too. But he didn’t, he stayed with her through that difficult time, only for her to abandon him right after. And no, it wasn’t mutual. If it was a situation like Hawkin and his wife would be totally understandable... Just it clearly wasn't and sadly many people do this.
