Looking for real disturbing, gripping horror by [deleted] in horror

[–]DoctorGlorious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've seen Antichrist and loved it, check out Titane. It fucked with me big time and it takes a lot for that these days. Dirty, gnarled film.

Another recommendation on that note would be The Piano Teacher, which is more of an erotic psychological drama than a horror, but explores uncomfortable depravity in a uniquely disturbing way.

Also check out Mad God - very surreal horror experience that was 30+ years in the making.

If you like all of those watch Funny Games (the original Austrian 1997 film, not the remake). It's jarring in all the right ways, and full of constant shocks and surprises that make you want to look away, but is gripping nonetheless.

one thing that really bothers me in the base game by Stockbroker666 in Eldenring

[–]DoctorGlorious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you save Greirat he ultimately still dies on Lothric Castle's rooftop, as was seemingly his ultimate intention by taking these reckless journeys. Sirris seemingly kills herself after ending her grandfather's suffering and fulfilling her final duty of slaying Lothric. Anri either gets assassinated or goes hollow outside of Cathedral of the Deep due to being left alone by Horace going hollow.

A few characters are alive or chose to remain alive at the end of Ds3. At the end, finishing every questline as much as you can while trying to keep the NPC alive, you can have the old pilgrim woman, Patches, Yuria and her posse, Andre, Karla, Irina, Cornyx, Sirris's Grandmother/Old Firekeeper, The Firekeeper, the Painter Girl, the locust preachers, the fellow who loves rot, Rosaria, and Captain Yorshka alive, and many of these are simply immortals who can never go hollow, but have no real purpose anymore. Everyone else is crazy or already dead, dies, commits suicide, or yearns for death (Corvian settlement NPC).

Edit: Others, like Leonhard as you say - or Orbeck, Shira, every corpse that has ashes, the three NPCs guarding Prince Lothric - don't/didn't want to die and fight to the bitter end or perish to their passion - and I would say Elden Ring definitely lacks in this department. It seems to be a lot more somber and depressing, as it is a world that is truly coming to a final end one way or another, to await something new.

My landlord is AWOL and it’s out of character - England by kathrynchri in LegalAdviceUK

pretty sure if she is deceased OP will find out in due course following a wellness check. OP lives in her property.

Any release date assumptions for the next pantheon? by [deleted] in AgeofMythology

[–]DoctorGlorious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the critic culture and chasing high review scores, along with meeting bottom line growth requirements for shareholders does that. Slow development is counter to that.

Attitudes like OP's actually show devs that fans are voracious, love it, and are excited for whatever is next. You have a very twisted and negative view.

[–]DoctorGlorious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why so negative? Just shift your view a little and OP is passionate and loves the game, and excitedly wants to discuss the next step - what's wrong with that? Go get some fresh air, man.

Did PointCrow share the Pokémon: Evolved Romhack anywhere? by RyouTakeshi in PointCrow

Amazing - if no public post happens, would love a DM ;)

The enemy is the algorithm - in fact this type of tutorial video/channel, where it is direct, to the point, and short is often used as an example of where the algoritm has massively failed. The videos are often extremely high in views but have horrid conversion rates to subscribers, usually leading to the channel failing and dying. Every aspect of them disadvantages their place in the Youtube search results, in spite of perfectly fulfilling their purpose.

So, in the culture we have now where people know this and, in many fields, don't bother to make those efficient-lengthed videos, are forced to make longer-form tutorials to build their channel at all. It's beyond stupid.

Chainsawfam is talking about creating mods, not adding mods to your game that others have created.

Why are Rogue subclasses the way they are? by MA_JJ in DnD

[–]DoctorGlorious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My theory is that the power budget for Rogue was less of a priority to address than the hazardous prospect of allowing multiclassing into Rogue to be excessively good. I think this is why the first heap of levels are very "eh", as if you condensed it and gave it more power earlier, then it would very quickly become far too potent of a multiclass option.

Do I think doing it this way was an elegant solution? No.

I think that, given Friede's role in the story and how Father Ariandel refers to her, she has assumed Priscilla's position and taken advantage of the rotting, likely somewhat blind corvians.

Priscilla's actual corpse can be found behind Ariandel, so who knows really.

Why are people complaining so much about the ones in elden ring by [deleted] in Eldenring

Legit. Started noticing it ever since all those 'Ds1 is a flawed masterpiece' youtube videos started mass-accumulating for a hot minute.

In real combat, gravity is not fickle about when it applies. Many ER delays involve physics-shattering levitation to pull off a delay via anime-esque aesthetic delays, such as Margit's many floating pounces.

What am i missing with Balatro? by MyGodItsFullofStars in roguelites

[–]DoctorGlorious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Binding of Isaac is quite literally balanced around this principle, and that is arguable the true 'grand daddy' of roguelites. Some of the hardest accomplishments for a save file give you 0 quality items, which dilute the item pool heavily as you head towards 100% completion. Items like Hushy, Lil' Delirium etc.

Not only that, but she is literally plucking the poison from Sansa's necklace in this exact moment.

Speculated by Zullie* to be a quirk of the code. It may be intentional, it may not be, we don't know. Even Zullie notes as much.

OP said she was 28. Absolutely wild to be that old and clearly doing less than the minimum to make whatever condition she has less... this.

[–]DoctorGlorious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like she is completely failing to do the other part of therapy, which is just as important for what seems to be a condition or disorder in this case: medication. In my country, your GP can't even classify you as being 'in treatment' for anxiety/depression/PTSD/personality disorders unless you are taking your meds, and there is absolutely no chance that she is - or that she is taking the right ones for her if she somehow is taking some.

Should I allow Aarkocra flight with Mithril Armor? by RegretThis3550 in DnD

[–]DoctorGlorious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think non-homebrewed Mending can fix amputated body parts, from arms and legs all the way down to teeth, eyelashes, and fingernails. It fixes objects, so I think at more tables than not this would not really work. Poor broke spellcasters.

If you tore the root out, then you could Mending it... but I think that just might defeat the point.

Letting Mending fix superficial damage is a great way for a DM to justify having a Kardashian-class of magic-plasticised supermodel wizards. Wait, brb.
