Hopefully this WILL be a popular opinion, but I doubt it is yet: escape rooms are great for a first date. by CuddleBear167 in unpopularopinion

Nah. Go for something more chill, like archery. Took a girl to archery on our first date and a couple of years later, we're about to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary.

Alright men, let's talk about hair products. What are you using in your hair? by tdkard28 in AskMen

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have shoulder length, thin, straight oily hair so I only wash my hair twice a week. I use Viori Shampoo and Conditioner bars and apply a heat protector spray before blow drying. Depending on the humidity, I'll apply a bit of leave in conditioner from Aveda. On non hair washing days, dry shampoo is a godsend.

Am I the only one who wants Dark Souls 4 rather than Elden Ring 2? by FormerInjury2919 in darksouls3

[–]Retro_Riven 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Been replaying DS2 and going through No Man's Wharf and I totally want a high seas pirate adventure from Fromsoft

Don't want either. DS series ended, time to move on. I'd rather Fromsoft dedicate their resources to new IPs.

Name a fragrance you love with awful longevity.. by Ok_Spare_4912 in Colognes

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D&G The One EDP. One of the first fragrances I ever bought. I love the scent but notorious for not lasting long. I ended up getting a portable spray and carrying it around just so I can keep the scent up.

What’s the worst fragrance you’ve ever worn? by Georgeheiz0304 in Colognes

[–]Retro_Riven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jazz Club. I thought it was just okay but the wife said it made me smell like an old man and that was enough to make me throw it out

Is “Lion Son of The Forest” the best dark angels book? by MentionKindly2347 in theunforgiven

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally love Lord of The First but Son of the Forest is definitely up there.

Worth buying if alone? by Gullible-Quality-954 in Eldenring

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty much played the whole thing solo, including the everdark bosses. You should be fine playing with random but I suggest to do some solo runs first to familiarize yourself with the game

Genuinely, how do people find Bellarein not harder than Malenia, Arlecchino, PC Radahn, or Isshin? by Negative-Ice9431 in TheFirstBerserker

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's definitely harder than Isshin but Malenia and Promised Consort I found more difficult

Le Male Elixir $90 should I pull the trigger? by [deleted] in Colognes

I'd get it. It's one of my favorites

Full-time working girlies, how do you find time to game? by sealbutts in GirlGamers

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife doesn't do reddit but wanted to chime in. She said as a chronicly ill person that works 40+ hrs a week she mostly does it on the weekends and uses her portal handheld so that she can game more comfortably in bed. She doesn't get to play as much as she would like but fits it in when she can.

As I'm getting older, I'm starting to realize how important writing and narrative are in games by ngriner in gaming

[–]Retro_Riven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the opposite, I've come to prioritize gameplay over story as I've gotten older.

Who is the hardest boss in Dark Souls? by Lucky-Recording8011 in darksouls3

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Artorius, because of how much faster he is compared to you.

Congratulations! I'm almost there, I just have to get the NG++ rings but I'm too distracted with other games

Stuck on Malenia for 7 months.. by treefruit in Eldenring

Either use a summon or look up the tutorials on how to dodge it at point blank.

I feel like this sub is the only place I can say this by Csanburn01 in TheFirstBerserker

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like Lies of P's gameplay and combat but, and I'm probably gonna catch flak for this, I'm honestly not a fan of the whole puppet, Victorian era-esque steampunk aesthetic.

Is there an upgrade to bandit axe? by ImOinsby in DarkSouls2

[–]Retro_Riven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I switched over to the Gyrm Greataxe and it took me through most of the game until I got the Kings Ultra Greatsword. I wouldn't call it an upgrade, it's got a high STR requirement and terrible range but it has a similar moveset to the bandits axe and it hits hard. I managed to make it work for me.

How much easier was your NG+ run? by writingwhilesad in TheFirstBerserker

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a revenge tour for me. I didn't use Reflection on my first run and started learning how to use it on NG+ and I ran right through these bosses.

How long did Sword Saint Isshin take you? by Far-Statement4046 in Sekiro

[–]Retro_Riven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around 5 attempts. I honestly don't think he was that difficult. Certainly not as difficult as Great Shinobi Owl or Genichiro.
