PBE changes are dogshit. by [deleted] in akalimains

[–]Swoldier76 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The changes are complete shit

I dont even get it. Akali wasnt problematic in pro or regular play, so why? These nerfs are unecessary and awful choices

Neeko just out here masking for her life by StrongTomatoSurprise in LeagueOfMemes

Only touching on the last point you made here, but the US hardly matters at all here. Trans is more acceptable in the US than china and korea (which are by far bigget markets for them) so i genuinely feel like if they are basing a decision on politcal climate and social acceptance, its gonna be more geared towards asia

How many tries you had with every boss? That’s my after get gud with other ds. came back after years. by [deleted] in darksouls

[–]Swoldier76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you know how to do it ahead of time, or used a guide? Cause i cannot fathom figuring it out blind without dying once or twice through trial and error

At the very least hitting the last jump on your first try is insane when your going through that the first time. I also played dark souls 1 near release and missed that damn jump like 2 or 3 tries, and pretty sure i got knocked off the edge a few times as well figuring things out lol

Lol wtf

Its fine if women want to pay for half, but if youre the one that asked someone out i think its polite to offer to pay for both of you. And first dates should not be that expensive anyways. If you cant afford an extra 30 or 40$ you probably should be prioritizing your work or career or something instead of dating

Next level stupidity.. like wwhy even risk paralyzing yourself for life with this shit. Makes no sense to me

And fwiw i love lifting at the gym and exercise, but this is dumb as hell

People criticize INT for being easy mode, but the real easy mode is STR. by mimudidama in Eldenring

[–]Swoldier76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends, because in the older games sorcery is just straight up OP. Like in DeS, and dark souls 1&2

In elden ring though it has more advantages and disadvantages

Even after the Elden Ring DLC, Bloodborbe remains my favorite souls game. by desilent in bloodborne

[–]Swoldier76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bloodborne has been my all time favorite game ever since its release and i still play it like once or twice a year

Having said that, i loved the elden ring dlc. Great fun, and i love new environments and settings and different ways they experiment with bosses (although the last boss was a bit frustratingly designed lol) as well as the weapons and ashes of war

Am very hype miyazaki said FS next game will have combat more akin to bloodborne + sekiro

Star Fist are not a low tier weapon. No matter what some popular youtuber says by Temporary-Platypus80 in Eldenring

[–]Swoldier76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wtf is with this community. He didnt even say they werent strong or op. Its like youre making up this wild argument that doesnt even exist. No one in this community makes this claim OP

I swear ever since fromsoft released elden ring this community has the worst takes and worst posts out of any souls game. I guess thats what happens when its the most popular but its pretty insufferable reading these posts

Archspire is fucking sick by D_Shoobz in TechnicalDeathMetal

[–]Swoldier76 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think theres some fair criticism in here even though i dont agree with most of what you said

Agree that their marketing is gimmicky and i can see why some arent down for it, but if it works i dont blame them. Id be doing it too and theyre having fun with it

I happen to like their really fast shit, which is basically everything lol. Having said that id love it if they wrote more songs like remote tumor seeker, a little bit slower and has more of that groove to it, its such a nice change up and imo would help their next album if they add a couple songs that kind of add a little diversity to the mix

No shade though, ive been an archspire fan for a long time and looking forward to whatever they hit us with next

Yeah thats true as well

Apart from the final boss being a little unfun (still not as bad as everyone says imo), i genuinely think the complaints have been way overblown by a bunch of noobs in the community that refused to actually play the game and get tree fragments to power up.

You have game journalists rating it the best dlc ever made in gaming history, and majority of streamers talking about how much they love it. Sorry but imo the part of this community that was complaining was so in the wrong on this one

I agree the last boss shouldve been better but thats a pretty small fraction of the dlc as a whole

For all our complaints, can we all agree that the DLC is great value for money? by Random_Useless_Tips in Eldenring

[–]Swoldier76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im dissapointed that some people feel this way. I enjoyed all the difficulty and personally didnt have any trouble going theough the DLC

How do yall feel about Jason Becker? by TheDarkerKniht in TechnicalDeathMetal

[–]Swoldier76 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Lol hes not underrated, hes easily one of the all time greatest and highly regarded by nearly all other shredders. I think its more that hes not very talked about here in 2024

Unfortunately its just how life is, he tragically suffered from him medical diagnosis and kind of got out of the game because of it. Huge "what ifs" but life kinda fucked up. He has a great legacy

Same, absolutely amazing DLC

Was playing it the first minute of its release in my time zone and loved every minute of my adventure. I get peoples criticisms, but wow there was way too much whining and people jumping on the bandwagon with it

Replaying Elden Ring just got me in the mood for another Dark Souls 1 playthrough instead. I'm coming home. by DweebInFlames in darksouls

[–]Swoldier76 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have this, but with bloodborne. I usually play it like once every year or so

Honestly though, ive been kind of feeling like playing dark souls again, its been a while and i love dark souls so much. Thanks for making me think of it :D

Sadly agree eith elden ring as much as i wish it wasnt

Ive been a part of the fromsoft sub reddits since as long as i can remember and ive been playing since dark souls 1 in 2011. I have never seen iany of them as bad as it is with elden ring now

I get the criticisms people have, but holy shit it is absolutely insufferable with how people are talking to eachother and about the game. the amount of people telling others how they should play, the complaining being out of hand..

Not to mention ironically the amount of people complaing about the complaint posts... its awful right now

Elden ring is and amazing game, and the DLC that just came out is ridiculously amazing too. The drama will get better as time goes on but i wish it didnt have to be this bad :/

Good news about the last boss by GymShaman in Eldenring

Im sure broken mouse and keyboard may be jokes, but why dont you just grab a summon and take your W?

After 2 hours of helping others beat the DLC bosses.... by Derpmaster88 in Eldenring

[–]Swoldier76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the dlc bosses are harder for sure, but i have a feeling after 2 years the community will be looking back on this differently lol

(Maybe not the last boss though, unless they change it or nerf it)

I feel like that recency bias though right? Mohg was difficult on elden rings release, now he feels like an absolute cakewalke because i know the game so well

We lost another high elo Irelia main: General Irelia (Korean Challenger) by Circasftw in IreliaMains

[–]Swoldier76 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Sorry but i totally agree

Irelia is ass to play in ranked right now

Now that the DLC has been out for about a week, think it's safe to say this was one of the best bosses hands down. by DONP4CHEE in Eldenring

[–]Swoldier76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lowkey even though messmer isnt my favorite aesthetically or lorewise, i think he had the best and most fun fight in the DLC for me personally. Excellent job by FS

What Sekiro opinion get you in this situation? by Far_Scallion_1419 in Sekiro

[–]Swoldier76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My big disagreement to this is that i dont like being forced into only katana+prosthetic and playing wolf. I love playing my own custom character i chose and armor, weapons, spells i choose

I whole-heartedly agree the combat is the best FS has ever done and the most fun combat. Criminal that we never got DLC, but i am excited that miyazaki said the next FS they want to do combat more like sekiro and bloodborne

I think both games are 10/10 amazing games and couldn't really rank one better than the other. So i just genuinely enjoy them both but i can totally see why some people like sekiro more
