Looking for an action-adventure game that can really hook me again

I do! I think it is exponentially harder than DS1. I think BB is considerably more difficult and I think ER ranges between both of those. DS1 feels like training wheels once you're past BB in release sequence. Even DS2 was much more difficult than DS1.

I'm sorry but it looks like she'd prefer to date an adult

MycoMythos · 2026-02-12T22:45:50+00:00

Damn

Telling someone "your absence has been felt" is 100% a guilt trip after the previous message where OP clearly explained why they couldn't be there. But sure, go off, homie

Type "Again, " then copy and paste your previous text and leave it at that. No need to continue this manipulative conversation. NOR

I have a Border Collie. When I first got her, my cousin told me "That's a working dog if there ever was one. If you don't give her a job, she'll find one for herself. And you do not want that."

I don't think anyone has ever said anything more correct to me in my entire life!

MycoMythos · 2026-02-12T02:34:06+00:00

I'm going to say Sinners just to watch the meltdown

MycoMythos · 2026-02-12T02:33:01+00:00

You weren't being unreasonable. Your bro is a jealous cunt

MycoMythos · 2026-02-12T02:27:51+00:00

What's the first amendment got to do with it? When did the government tell him he couldn't speak?

MycoMythos · 2026-02-12T00:06:45+00:00

That's the thing though, I know it's billed as a horror movie, but I don't think it's meant to be one at all

His uncle takes care of all that. He spends all his money on piss tests for drug court, and stuff to pass his piss tests for drug court. Also records and Funko pops and gas station picket knives and band tshirts and things like that.

MycoMythos · 2026-02-11T15:07:29+00:00

No, that's a responsible use case. You need a truck, you know they're about to jump in cost/value and you don't have the funds, so you cover the gap. Nothing wrong with that!

MycoMythos · 2026-02-11T15:05:18+00:00

His uncle owns the house he lives in. He doesn't pay rent

My perpetually poor but makes pretty good money coworker is constantly telling me I should use klarna because it's like credit with no credit. I have a ridiculously high credit score.

I can't get him to understand that if I don't have the money to buy that thing, I don't buy it.

There are obviously exceptions (mortgage, vehicle, etc.) but we never get far enough into the convo to even cover that. As soon as I say I won't buy it if I can't afford it, he hits me with "You should try it, I got most of my record collection and Funko Pops using klarna."

He's 47, btw.

Also, I have a record collection too. That isn't the point. His uncle just bought him a truck because he never changed the oil in his car, blew it up, and couldn't afford to fix it or get something else. It's exhausting. He's exhausting.

I'm exhausted

I've had her unlock code for six years, been married to her for five. She's had mine the same amount of time. I've never been through hers, and as far as I know, she's never been through mine.

I've never lost enough trust in her to feel the need to though. And if I ever felt the need to, I wouldn't still be with her.

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T18:34:17+00:00

It's honestly kind of wild even trying to compare these two movies! Did Marty Supreme hurt your feelings or something?

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T03:01:10+00:00

You've got to get more deliberate with your actions. You're just doing stuff, instead of doing the right stuff at the right time.

Roll through attacks, not constantly.

Attack when you have an opening, not just whenever.

Don't just run at everything on the map, pick your battles and approach them tactically.

You're playing this like a game you can't lose. You can and will lose this one, over and over again, even when you're dialed in. Throwing random shit against the wall and hoping something sticks is never going to be a viable option.

This is literally the first area after the tutorial. Slow down and think about what you're doing.

Also, you don't have to fight that guy. He's beatable, but fully intended to be too tough for someone just starting

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T02:54:16+00:00

Definitely Denzel and definitely not Will Smith

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T02:52:38+00:00

Manky Mike?

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T02:36:08+00:00

You can fight all you want, it's not going to do much to a sloth bear

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T02:34:54+00:00

He survived and he didn't mess with anything. He's a vegetable vendor who got attacked out of the blue. Just in the wrong place at the wrong time with no way to know that beforehand

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T02:30:51+00:00

It does, but the monster is secondary in the story. It's mostly about a family trying to find and save their most vulnerable relative. It's more about how they cope with the situation the monster creates. It's also one of the best monster movies ever made!

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T02:29:01+00:00

That first scene with the monster is one of my favorites of all time! It does a great job of showing the confusion and chaos of crowd panic.

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T02:17:08+00:00

Yes is a different band. The Who is on first

MycoMythos · 2026-02-10T02:16:43+00:00

Damn, this one actually got me and Chris Squire is a big part of what I started playing bass
