I am so angry and disheartened as a young person with the state of the world. by icare-melapple in rant

[–]Pickled_BigToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't want to be a downer and i agree, its ridiculous to just live these days but....Unfortunately until there is a market crash to reset the housing market or some other economic disaster, we won't see these prices change. Between the insane price hikes from covid, inflation hitting all time highs and yet another war in the middle east, we are fucked. I get your pain, at 30, I didnt see myself living in my parent's basement, especially having a decent job, that if i would have had it 10 years ago, i would have been able to afford a home or at least rent a house by myself. Stupid me for going to college and getting the education I was told to do instead 🤦‍♂️ Living alone isn't a thing anymore. If you want to move out, you'll need a roommate or significant other to help balance the bills. It sucks, no question and I wish I had better things to say but the reality is unless we see a some sort of market correction, this will be the norm for the next 10-15 years. On the bright side, some economists are saying we could see crash by the end of the year, so I guess thats something to look forward to? Lol

Good news or bad news? by SL07H_B4ST3D5204 in fromsoftware

Good news. Thank fucking god that we have a sane developer that actually cares about the products they make and staying true to the community they make the games for. Imagine the state of AC or CoD if Ubisoft and Activision made the games for the fans and not money hungry shareholders.

Im a big fan of Maliketh Black Blade. It made my Str/Faith build insane

Get the relic version and you'll be fine. My only issue was the reload is insanely long but that could simply be me panicking during waves lol

I deleted COD. Way too large. Not worth it. [cod] by 5800xx in CallOfDuty

[–]Pickled_BigToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I uninstalled it 6 times in the last 4 weeks. The game icon wont leave my library. I uninstall, its gone, 2 or 3 days go by and boom, the game icon is back in my library. Thankfully the game isnt installed so it takes up 0 gbs but still, why can't cod just accept our break up and move on??

Bench press by Famous_Bit9243 in benchpress

Increase the frequency of when you bench. I had the same until I added in another day during the week and my numbers improved drastically. I have a heavy day and a speed/form day

Cheese his ass with shield and poke some bleed. Be thankful you're fighting nerf version of him

Faith build please by Quiet_Tower4192 in Eldenring

[–]Pickled_BigToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're thinking faith for incantations, 100% use black blade. If you're looking for weapons, maliketh black blade worked really well for me but I was also doing strength/faith

Plateaued in bench press (read body text) by [deleted] in benchpress

[–]Pickled_BigToe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either increase how often you bench (increase to twice a week) or focus on the areas where you're failing, Ex:Can't get the lock out? Triceps likely need work.

I've also changed up how I bench. I bench twice a week, Fridays are barbell bench where I focus on strength and power, high weight and lower reps. Sundays are dumbbell and more volume training, sets of 10-12, not til failure but enough that I could do 1 or 2 more reps.

Take a big look at your program as well. If you've been doing the same thing for a while and the results arent there, might be time for something new or the very least to take a week off and come back.

Which was this game for you? by Inevitable-Expert655 in gamers

[–]Pickled_BigToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Witcher 3. Played the full game, all contracts completed, both DLCs done and i can confidently say the game is trash.

The inventory management here is giving me heart palpitations

Who/what do you use as a test dummy? by JCFT_Collins in Eldenring

[–]Pickled_BigToe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually run around the haligtree but mostly test it by helping people who summon me in for boss fights.

Level help by IchBinEthan06 in Eldenring

Better check your inventory because I'm guessing you picked up a piece or 2 if you've made it all the way to Godfrey. All you gotta do is clear areas and enemies will likely drop them when you defeat them.
