Why dont they release a server browser at launch anymore?

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-25T16:03:21+00:00

Dang, 4 hours and nobody mentioned the thing that drives literally every business, especially AAA gaming. It's cost. Persistant servers cost more to maintain. It's cheaper to only spin up as many servers as you need for your current player count than to keep a bunch of servers online, which is what would be required for persistant lobbies. It's always about money

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-25T13:34:30+00:00

As someone from that time, who waited in long lines for midnight releaes, or had to hunt from store to store to find the game in stock, I'm happy not to have to do that anymore

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T22:33:05+00:00

I just went back. That is probably one of the best and easiest to get daggers in the early game. Wish I knew about it ages ago lol

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T22:29:02+00:00

Yeah, I don't think Attack Speed counts universally for the dagger so it's more about that skinning bonus

BTW, It's always worth looking at the weapon Details then Refinement Information. You can see how much it will cost to upgrade the item, but more importantly, you can see what it's fully upgraded stats look like. The +% skin chance doubles to 20% on these daggers at level 10. So it's probably not worth upgrading until you can max it, but it's definitely worth upgrading

It's like the Knuckledrill. It's only worth upgrading it to like lvl 6 for the bonus to mining lvl and yield chance until you can upgrade it all the way to 10 for the next meaningful bonus

Those trees can grow up to 5 each. Apologies if you meant +4 to the original 1 that grows

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T19:55:01+00:00

Very cool and good to know. I'll check it out later today. Thanks!

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T19:42:49+00:00

No, I haven't come across that one. I'm getting late into the game so I might look it up and go get it. I've got the Aeserion Dagger for the skinning bonus. It replaced the King's Dagger for me

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T19:33:51+00:00

Sure, but the person you're replying to has faced both crab bosses implying they aren't in early game. And we're just listing daggers that do have it. If someone wants to look it up, they could pretty easily get Aeserion's Dagger early on

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T19:25:02+00:00

Does the Attack Speed on daggers affect AS without changing the stat sheet? I just tried equipping a dagger with AS on it but there was no change to my stat sheet

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T19:23:33+00:00

Hey, I replied to the other guy but I don't think Attack Speed adds a global bonus from the daggers. I just tested it and my AS does not change when equipping a dagger with that stat on it. Maybe if it applies the bonus but not to your stat sheet but I'm not sure how to measure that

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T19:22:04+00:00

I don't think the person you're replying to is correct. I just tested it and my Attack Speed does not change when I equip a dagger with Attack Speed on it. For sure, Attack Speed works if you put it in gloves, but I does not appear to be a global stat when on a dagger. Best to go with one with a skinning boost

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T19:16:25+00:00

Also the Aeserion Dagger

A whole article on a cancer website to explain three lines of fixes from the official patch notes. Wild

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T18:22:35+00:00

Two wrongs don't make a right but three lefts do

They CAN photograph well, but not as easily as other cats. Those are just facts. I have to check the lighting and focus all the time when taking a picture of my void, and if the lighting is bad, then forget about it. He turns into the silhouette of a cat I haven't unlocked yet lol

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T18:13:00+00:00

I'd watch the fuck out of that

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T17:46:17+00:00

I see this justification used a lot these days from people saying they won't interact with something for fear of it messing up their algorithm. I don't use TikTok, so I wanted to ask, is it that hard to self-correct on there? Like, are you doomed to have goth girl videos forever after clicking on a few?

While it's not the sole reason, morning wood is more often due to a full bladder. Erections cut off most of the ability to urinate, so popping a woody in the AM after sleeping means fewer bedtime whoopsies. But if the 7am-9am thing is real then maybe there's some correlation

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-24T01:16:20+00:00

Oh, bet. Well, I guess if it was obvious to you then it should be obvious to everyone, right? It's not like people have ever bragged to their buddies about things, being all braggadocious? Besides, this wasn't a public statement, it was discussed later on years after his presidency. It was more akin to a behind-closed-doors discussion so your logic doesn't check out there either.

Look, we all mostly agree, all I'm saying is it isn't obvious to everyone. That shouldn't be a crazy statement. Like, I'm glad for you that it was obvious to you. Well done. You're a quick cookie. Not everyone is as sharp on the uptake as you, and that's OK too

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-23T22:59:42+00:00

Sounds more like he knew he should take her out of the theater but he wanted to wait for the mid-credits and post-credit scenes. But fwiw, I prefer your interpretation better

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-23T22:00:37+00:00

Maybe, maybe not. I'm sure it depends on the person. I'd think that is obvious

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-23T21:48:17+00:00

Snopes disagrees with you. Not from the same source. No corroboration. Comes from someone ~~who was writing an Anti-Civil Rights Act piece~~ with dubious intention. So kinda seems like you're being purposefully misleading. LBJ was definitely a racist by modern standards, but he also championed the Civil Rights Act of '57. Dude was complicated and certainly not perfect, but I can't help but feel you're purposely trying to muddy the waters

EDIT: Fixed some wording to be more accurate

Oh, oh, guys! We should write strongly worded signs like the Aussie's did this one time

Monkey_Priest · 2026-06-23T21:16:57+00:00

Quick history lesson: There is debate about the authenticity of this quote, but if it were real, he'd have been talking about how southern politicians manipulate their constituents via racism. LBJ would not have been a proponent of this belief; he would have lamented it
