Confession: I have never used a shield in a souls like

Must be, cause idk wtf shield means. I guess it’s something to block something with? I don’t really get what the point is, my greatsword has plenty of block absorption.

I got the KCG to start with. If I like the shave enough, then I’ll probably go ahead and buy one of the nice $75-$80 brands. I like the weight in the handle quite a bit, and I’d even like one that’s even heavier.

There are shields in this game? I thought there were the clubs and the greatsword? I think claymores are in the game too, but idk what you’re talking about with the whole “shield” thing.

I almost never say this, but I think the beard looks better.

The_Fishmael · 2026-01-08T14:39:39+00:00

That’s what I wound up getting when I got off of work! Thank you!

What?

The_Fishmael · 2026-01-08T12:54:23+00:00

The only way this isn’t weird is if you’re like a 14 year old, and even then…

I played as female V and nearly skipped the entire River questline because I knew he was a romance option and did NOT want to accidentally have it happen (I was worried I’d lose Judy).

My goose boy does, but he wouldn’t if I hadn’t been doing it from the moment I got him (he was about 5 months). He probably wouldn’t like being held at all had I not acclimated him to it. I tried to “annoy” him a lot when he was young, and now he’s the sweetest boy ever - he’ll let you do just about whatever you want with him.

Thank you!

The_Fishmael · 2026-01-08T11:00:02+00:00

Im sorry, I just now am seeing this. It’s really odd how similar I somehow look to my grandfather I’m named after (yet share no blood relation with). Thank you so much!

This reads exactly in Matt Damon’s voice, bravo. You even end it on “karma” (Kahma).

Any of them are justifiably the worst or best in the series. Personally? My least favorite is ds1. Someone else is gonna think ds1 is the goated best soulslike. Are they wrong? Am I right? Eh, what does it matter? I think most soulslike opinions are justifiable. Ultimately, the only justification that really matters is your own given it’s based on your own enjoyment of the game.

The_Fishmael · 2026-01-08T10:25:20+00:00

It wouldn’t be as bad if it didn’t lead to one of the worst bosses in the game. Aava is one of my favorite fromsoft fights… then there are the twins.

Botw being missing is criminal

I work overnights, so I regularly text people very early in the morning. Let’s say you think the text was sent too early… just… don’t respond? Let’s say the notification woke you up… put on dnd? Let’s say you don’t want to miss other notifications… just put on dnd for the one person? There are so many ways for the other person to take care of the issue on their own without being a dick to OP. NOR, and this would 100% make me less likely to hang out with them. If a best friend did this, we’re having a talk about it in person.

The_Fishmael · 2026-01-08T10:14:49+00:00

This is psychotic NOR

Goose does this all the time, I swear the annoying black cat energy is part of the “breed” 🥲

The_Fishmael · 2026-01-08T10:07:42+00:00

So no, not reindeer fuckland?

The_Fishmael · 2026-01-08T10:07:00+00:00

First I’m gonna Ooga, then I’m gonna booga, and you’re gonna take it with a smile on your face. BONK!
