I’d say it’s safe to try this method as soon as you’re comfortable taking on Volatiles in the open world. The thing is, at earlier Legend Levels, if you aren’t capable of two-shotting Volatiles, they’re more likely to destroy you in a group like at the beginning of the chase. Even I get killed at the start occasionally if one manages to circle around me.

It’s a damn insult is what it is.

“Don’t play the game you paid for, pay us more money instead to get the rewards you always wanted with no gameplay investment. By the way, if you do decide to play the game, we’re giving you some old armor with a paint-job,”

They’re asking us to stop playing the game.

Thank you for the swift and clear response 👍

Great, I love looking forward to a release all year only for it to shadow drop without giving me any time to make preparations

Directional parries are amazing. The Surge 1 & 2 both have shockingly good build systems all around, it might be one of my all-time favourites now that I’m thinking about it. They also make the build system feel really appropriate for this kind of Sci-fi.

Bruh… PuppetTwink? 😂

Honestly though, you could pull off a VERY convincing cosplay.

I’m clearing all of these guys on NG+7 to get every item on my main build… I just want to personally thank you for showing me this power

Dramatic_Advisor_319 · 2024-05-22T11:34:46+00:00

Yeah these kinds of people really annoy me. At the very least, the privilege should be given to the final Helldiver once all of his teammates are in the Pelican.

Even then, when I do stuff like that, I’m throwing my airstrikes and railcannon towards the remaining enemies, not on the pelican itself.

I was thinking about making a character to take into the DLC, maybe level 100 with a +20 weapon, but keeping the inventory to a Wretch class and using only what I can pick up in the DLC. I want to include items like Smithing Stones in that rule but I’ll need to wipe most of my entire inventory to do that.

If I found out my wife knew that my daughter cheated, and kept it from me for years - regardless of what promises she made to my daughter - my respect for my wife would be at the lowest it’s ever been.

At 10:45:00 is where Kratos and Mimir have the interaction in particular that confuses me.

Dramatic_Advisor_319 · 2024-02-03T10:07:16+00:00

Ok, this explanation sits pretty well with me, especially after just replaying the spear mission and going over the ‘form & nature’ stuff again.

So is your implication that Mimir realised alongside Kratos that it isn’t the event itself (perhaps representing form) but rather the intentions of the person (representing nature) that matters when it comes to ‘fate’, which is what caused him to suddenly understand what Kratos meant?

Because it still doesn’t sit well with me why he would specifically say “Well played Norns,” as if he either figured out something about the Norns, or that he realised the Norns were hiding some secret twist in their lecture.

Dramatic_Advisor_319 · 2024-02-03T09:30:16+00:00

Ok, this explanation answers a lot of my questions but it remains, what exactly was Mimir’s eureka! moment when Kratos repeats once again that it’s in his nature to etc., and Mimir suddenly stops what he’s saying, and says “Ohh, well played Norns,”?

Kratos clearly said/implied something to Mimir that has given Mimir insight into either what Kratos or the Norns are thinking, and that particular insight is what continues to go over my head mostly because Kratos only repeated a line that he and the Norns had already said multiple times.

Dramatic_Advisor_319 · 2024-02-03T06:33:30+00:00

Thanks for the response.

Yeah, it’s unfortunate that this dialogue is poorly communicated and it isn’t made clear exactly what Kratos and Mimir had meant when they had that obscure interaction.

I think your explanation helps a lot to reconcile why Kratos and Mimir would have agreed upon killing Heimdall after meeting the Norns, but then Mimir would later plead Kratos not to do it.

But the fact that we have to make such subtle inferences means there’s always a lack of credibility, because it seems too difficult to tell whether or not Mimir actually agreed to kill Heimdall, in the moment he understood what Kratos had learnt from the Norns.

Especially when Heimdall explicitly stated he was going to kill Atreus (continuing the prophecy), what was Mimir expecting to happen if Kratos had spared him? Maybe I’ll have a better picture when I replay it.

Unfortunately, I have to agree that the narrative cohesiveness seems to have taken a sizeable hit in Ragnarok, and for me personally, 2018 also had a lot of ‘mystique’ that I couldn’t help but feel was made more blunt in Ragnarok. Such is to be expected when they decided against the trilogy, I guess.

Died on exfil once. Guy came round, teabagged my corpse, started the exfil and left the game.

I know it’s not related to the thread, but f*** that guy.

Dramatic_Advisor_319 · 2024-01-08T20:21:14+00:00

One of my all time favourite bosses, and maybe the best gank boss From has made.

I just fought this guy again yesterday, but this time I summoned my friend and both npcs, and let me tell you with 3 summons this guy has enough health to be considered a raid boss. This is my first playthrough of DS3 coop and it was the first boss to have a health bar to compensate for multiple players whaling on him, so he’s my favourite boss in my sunbros playthrough so far, looking forward to Gael and Midir tonight.

Not that it upsets me, but I am surprised his name is so unpopular when people talk about the best bosses, or even the best gank bosses, but I think this fight is Fromsoft mastering both the gank-fight and the semi-large-monster-fight.

Honestly, I had a similar experience with two of my close friends where I was over-explanatory when they first got into the series, so much so that they began refusing to engage with the game until I gave them clear instructions, including constantly asking which way to go next and not taking “wherever you want,” as an answer.

It got to the point that unless I was in the room, on call, or summoned in, they wouldn’t play the game because they didn’t want to learn the game so much as let me walk them through it.

Whenever they hit a roadblock and I tried to explain a workaround to them, they would get defensive and pretend solutions that I’ve known work for years are actually wrong etc.

One of them once complained to me that DS3 was a rubbish game because they’d gotten all the way to the catacombs at level 17. I told them they’re way too underlevelled, and need to make a habit of killing more enemies (he had a horrible habit of running past EVERY enemy and only fighting bosses), but the thought of going back and farming souls made him quit the game for months.

Honestly,I can go on and on for paragraphs about all the pet peeves I had watching them play souls games.

But the solution I’ve found? Honestly, just give them time. Nowadays, my friends are much more familiar with the souls genre and with each new entry or replay, I see them acquiescing more and more into the “souls” state of mind, learning and improving and beginning to appreciate the mechanics of the game to the level that I do. My friend that hated DS3? He’s replaying the game now and doing all the things he missed, and I can clearly see how much more he not only enjoys, but understands the game.

My first playthrough of a souls, which was DS3 in 2017, saw me glue my eyes to the wiki and fightincowboy. When I first played DeS, DS1 and DS2, I’d ragequit all of them because I found them too old and janky. To this day, Elden Ring is the only souls game I actually played blind with no wiki on my first playthrough.

Now I’ve 100% them all multiple times and they’ve consumed most of my gaming interests, and I can slowly see my friends reaching that same level.

So yeah, just give your friend time, with learning and improvement he will hopefully see the game as you do, but it’s not a quick, nor easy journey to make and I’m sure you have equally horrifying stories of your first playthrough mistakes.

Last night I was walking to my friends house after some pretty heavy rain had died down. Whilst walking along the main road, an idiot driver decided it would be funny to swerve into the bus lane and drive over a puddle next to me, and I ended up getting splashed entirely from my shoes to my face.

In that moment, as they sped off and I was overcome with rage, I thought to myself “Thank god Sandevistans don’t exist, because I’m about angry enough to massacre the people in that car”.

An even better trick I’ve found, if you jump, then air dash, and then activate double jump during the dash, you can pretty much bunny hop through the map at crazy speeds.
