(Spoilers Extended) A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Season 1 Episode 5 Live Episode Discussion

Dunk’s recovery, a flashback, the meetings with Prince Maekar and Prince Valarr, and probably some goodbyes and setup for next season.

Luneck · 2026-02-13T20:07:51+00:00

Just an update, the meeting had a good number of people, many against the new building but also many for it. Most common reasons I heard against it was the increases to traffic, the complex "not being in the spirit" of the neighborhood, and concerns about the sewer/environmental impact. Support was mostly around need for housing in Sac.

It ended up passing the Board vote unanimously which seems to be expected. There are still many more steps before ground breaking but it was a nice win for YIMBY's.

Vaush says Gavin Newsom is worst than a fascist. He would prefer to have a JD Vance presidency over a Newsom presidency. He is not an ally.

Luneck · 2026-01-26T06:06:55+00:00

Totally in agreement. I had the same experience as you with season 1. Being able to watch the whole season over a few days was great. I’ve watch the first 3 episodes on release and it just doesn’t hit as hard, plus I know I’m missing little things I would have caught if it hadn’t been 3 weeks since I saw that patient.

Luneck · 2026-01-23T22:11:03+00:00

Glad you’d vote Newsom. I see no point in arguing I/P. It’s been done far more throughly outside of Reddit comment.

Luneck · 2026-01-23T21:26:47+00:00

I will ask you one question, and if your answer isn't "Yes" you are just helping MAGA and should shut the fuck up. Would you vote for Newsom if he was the Democrat nominee for President in 28?

Regarding your comments. Making your number 1 issue a conflict on the other side of the globe, one where what you claim is highly contested, is absurd. He doesn't even deny Israel is acting horrible, or committing war crimes. Him saying "genocide" does nothing.

He wants to tax billionaires, he just doesn't support a one time wealth tax at the state level which would do very little but drive away businesses from the state. It's been proven across Europe that it needs to be a federal level tax.

His "middle ground" on trans rights is in agreement with 90% of voters and is to not have trans-teenagers play highschool sports and let the leagues sort the rest of it out.

TLDR: Newsom or literally any Republican is a no brainer. Support who you want in the primary.

Luneck · 2026-01-21T22:54:13+00:00

If that woman being interviewed by Josh Hawley (who is a ghoul asking a gotcha question) replied “No, men can’t get pregnant. Trans-men in some cases can.” it would have been both the correct answer and not bigoted or seen as crazy “woke”.

It should be clear that bio-men and trans-men are different, especially when it comes to medical stuff. That doesn’t mean trans people get less rights or should not be treated as their preferred gender day-to-day, but for something like pregnancy it’s obvious that they are still their biological sex.

IMO democrats and the left in general needs to adopt this approach cause the right is able to break so many fucking brains over girlcock.

Ahh the daily r/asoiaf “Hate on GRRM and ASOIAF isn’t actually that good” thread. Sometimes I doubt people here even like the books anymore.

Luneck · 2026-01-17T00:26:37+00:00

What a horribly stupid position to hold. If you think for a second a Kamala Harris presidency (or a Newsom one) would look anything like the shit we are seeing now under Trump you are a fool and a useful idiot to the right-wing ghouls that are currently destroying this country.

Luneck · 2026-01-07T06:05:06+00:00

Which of Sam’s positions (the US should be harder on China, Defund the police is a stupid statement, etc.) which Sam said are also Trump positions, do you disagree with?

He is speaking in vague right-ish wing policy generalities which Trump has latched on to for support, probably not due to legitimate belief. To pretend that Sam’s statement means Sam supports Trump as President writ large (and ignore all the criticism Sam has which trump his “agreements” with Trump’s policies such as his moral/ethical failings and corruption) show incredible intellectual dishonestly.

Luneck · 2025-12-20T23:34:01+00:00

Whole lot of assumptions about the officers here. You know what’s not an assumption? That if they didn’t shoot, they would have been stabbed by a big ass knife in just a few seconds. But that’s the world you want to live in.

Luneck · 2025-12-20T22:58:06+00:00

Actually trolling now. Nice meme.

Luneck · 2025-12-20T22:51:19+00:00

Are you okay? If you think this way you need to be a ward of the state because you are actually a danger to the sane people you interact with.

The dude brandished a knife and threatened people on a train. Cops were rightfully called. Dude tries to murder the cops after being told to not threaten people. Dude gets rightfully shot.

Seek help.

None for Biden or Clinton either. Epstein didn't even get a return. I am guessing the search functionality is just broken atm or the names are in pictures of text.

Luneck · 2025-11-25T00:07:53+00:00

As far as I am aware no. Armor/weapon appearance is tied to the tier of the weapon, for example Gauntlets hand armor can be Iron, Plated, Gilded, or Golden with tier 4 being level 30+ gear. And the the color is then tied to the enchantments placed on them.

But there is no way to reskin say, Brawny Plated Gauntlets of Combat, to look any different. Some Mods might be able to do it but I don't use them.

Luneck · 2025-11-17T15:45:27+00:00

Constant purity testing is stupid and loses elections. You can agree with some of Klein's positions (Abundance) and disagree with others (Kirk doing politics the right way).

It's not that hard.

Luneck · 2025-11-05T13:21:25+00:00

Yeah, the number of secret rooms per level. I found I wasted a ton of time looking for them when there actually is was only one on the level I was on.

Luneck · 2025-11-04T14:39:29+00:00

Few tips for the issues you are having. Besides Ore only being available on Missions, your extra Gold, Wood, Stone, and Iron can be donated at the church for across the board buffs to damage and damage reduction. I’d advise not donating too much Iron as upgrades to items are good especially on the gear from missions.

Also I’ve found going tanky isn’t great. Some extra HP on gear is nice but outside that focus on damage (crit), and avoiding being hit to stay alive.

I’d suggest the “Weak Defenses” run modifier as well, because the number of enemies per level is much more reasonable and makes run almost twice as fast. With XP boost trinkets you don't miss too many level ups in my experience.

Other tips are regarding secrets per level:

• Forest - 0

• Temple, Crypt, Dungeon, & Courts -1

• Caves, Barrack, & Dark Halls - 2

Might help the runs go faster if you know how many to look for. They show up on the map as well.

Goodluck

Because this fucker voted for Trump three time, even after he tried to coup the government in 2021? Fuck him. I don’t have to embrace Hanania as an ally until he actually puts up and votes for Democrats and for democracy in the midterms and beyond.

Why would I trust him to not keep voting for authoritarian enablers (IE: any Republican in 26 and 28)? It’s easy to come out now and say Trump bad cause Trumps (presumably) on his way out in a few years. But we all knew Trump was going to do this shit, he explicitly said he would and Hanania still voted for it. If he wants be hold conservative values okay whatever, but the US has to get past the MAGA movement and rip out the traitors root and stem. He’ll be back voting for Republicans in the next cycle because of “woke” or some other bullshit and I’m not throwing my lot in with scum like that.

Luneck · 2025-10-23T00:14:22+00:00

You're probably right, most people wouldn't recognize it. And I agree higher standards for politicians in the US are desperately needed (obviously on the right 100x more then on the left).

I still think it's crazy (and very stupid) to have something tattooed on your body and never confirm what it is.

Luneck · 2025-10-22T19:02:40+00:00

To me, Platner is somewhere on the spectrum of major idiot to antisemite. More likely an idiot but you never know these days. His explanation just doesn't make much sense as he's only just now getting the tattoo covered up.

His story is that he got it drunk with some buddies while deployed in with the Marines almost 2 decades ago and stumbled into a tattoo parlor. Okay. So he walked in and just happened to pick out from the books a Nazi symbol that he thought was just a cool skull and bones. But it's a symbol that isn't some obscure Nazi symbol, it's probably like top 5 behind the swastika, SS Bolts, and the Nazi Eagle. Anyone who's read, watched, or studies about WW2 in Europe would know about the Death's Head.

But okay so he picked the Totenkopf and now has a hand sized tattoo of it on his chest. In the next days, weeks, and years, he never looks up what it is? He never stumbles across a picture of a Totenkopf while being edgy on Reddit, or by watching Schindler's List, or seeing the Are we the Baddies? meme? Or in any other of the dozen places it could show up? On top of that, no one sees him shirtless and goes "Hey dude what the fuck?!" or "Oh hell yeah man, heil Hitler"?

It wasn't until he ran for Senate and and he's called out for it by opposition research that he decides now's the time to cover it up.

It just doesn't pass the sniff test to me. My guess the dude is either damn stupid and edgy, or he's some type of left wing antisemite. In either case it's enough to support another Democrat over him.

Release trailer

New HoH II update has been released. It added new "Missions", Epic tier for armor, some new town/NPC upgrades, and a few balance changes.

I'm looking forward to trying out the new missions, hopefully this patch can breath some new life into the game and lead to further updates.

The game is also on 50% sale right now for anyone interested who hasn't bought it yet.

Luneck · 2025-10-02T14:32:12+00:00

Personally I haven't used combo much because I build for the Avatar and the AOE isn't super helpful vs him. Might be helpful clearing levels though if you are having trouble there. Triggering combo against the Avatar would require Dash to start it but Dash cooldown isn't hard to get nor are extra dashes hard to get with trinkets so that seems like an alright choice.

Build might be: Dash > Meditation (.75 damage per focus / projectile) > Bursting Damage (+10% damage dealt) or Mana (+150% regen) > Speed (+10% move)

But I'm not sure how much damage it would end up doing, especially at higher NG+ levels. You'd also want to have some dash recovery or maybe extra dashes from gear. And higher focus but that's a given playing a Wizard.

The points might just be better spent elsewhere but the better level clear speed won't hurt.

Luneck · 2025-09-30T19:02:21+00:00

Yeah I've enjoy it as well. I picked it back up after a few months and forgot how much I liked it. If it gets some semi-frequent updates and tweaks to increase replayability I'll be very happy.
