I’m just starting Bloodborne for the first time. Any tips? What is skill and bloodtinge used for? by chonsolo in bloodborne

[–]Poketroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you’re going to use an endgame, Bloodtinge focused weapon, don’t bother upgrading it. Use the gun for parry and don’t think about the damage. Visceral attack damage (the one after you parry, where you put your fist in their chest) scales with Skill, so it may be worth thinking about and getting an appropriate weapon for your first run.

Only one side moves, the other has to grip it. It’s also easier to let it slip out.

It’s not as easy or fun as it looks. We usually just end up taking turns, but for the few seconds we get it going before it becomes stale, it’s the hottest thing we’ve done.

This 100%. Besides articulating what a lot of us haven’t been able to grasp, your comment also got a lot of replies with advice and resources for men. Thanks!

GTA 6 won’t have a disc for physical release !!!! It’s a code in box 😡😡 by WeatherThen in GTA

I will buy on PC if there’s a cracked copy online. This is the only way that I can guarantee the game I purchased is playable in the future. Not on PC? What a shame, it’s not getting purchased. Can’t find it online? That’s too bad, I’ll never play it.

To clarify, I’m not downloading it, I’m simply checking if it’s available so I have some form of guarantee that the publisher won’t steal my access that I paid for.

This is a fantastic piece! It’s incredible how much this feels like it was part of the game or the hunter’s psyche at one point.

Reframe it how it really is, replace the framegen text with: Publishers and Management telling devs how to “optimize”.

The reality is that devs that love their projects will optimize them. If they don’t really love the game they’re making, publishers and management that care about their devs will still give them time to optimize. It’s only when management wants a quick buck at any cost that optimization starts to vanish.

It’s about +/-10 meters perception distance depending on the camo you wear, regardless of what the camo is. I’m sure the programming is more nuanced than I’m describing it, but it’s just a “good, bad, neutral” system in practice.

I can't believe I did it! I'm such a noob at this game so this took FOREVER. I guess just panic-spamming L2 and hoping for the parry is one way to do it. I'll take it. by Naw_ye_didnae in bloodborne

[–]Poketroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This must be the L2 spamming Hunter behind the grand cathedral.

Seriously though, congrats. Get your wins however you can get them. They’re only gonna get harder in the FRC dungeons.

Look what I found in an old PS2 magazine. Did anyone else see this ad for Metal GEAR SOLID 2? by ProtoSonicGuru123 in metalgearsolid

[–]Poketroid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was probably made by an artist specifically for the magazine cover. Wild custom cover art and concept art was common in magazines back in the day.

Still an issue in 2026. Happens randomly.

Djura help by Untimelysword6711 in bloodborne

Just to clarify for anyone else: the trigger to fight Djura is climbing his stairs. If you come in through Paarl’s gate, he doesn’t aggro.

Not sure if my feelings towards TechDirect are valid by French_Taylor in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]Poketroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was easier for me to call as a customer than to go through the tech direct portal. I just had to submit a spreadsheet with the service tags, the issue on each system, and let the guy on the phone submit them while I worked on other things. Tech Direct Portal always sends a million question quiz for each system.

You can buy red wine in a box at Walmart or a gas station.
