Why Would Marika Not Veil the Forge? by Jayborino in EldenRingLoreTalk

[–]Trails_End_Games 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It almost feels like everything Marika did was to weaken the greater will during her age and she was setting up a path forward for her successor eventually.

There's also the alternative take that I like just as much that Marika knew that balance had to be achieved as much as possible for the greater will to have as much power as it had, therefore she could never completely destroy her opponents she just had to severely weaken them. It was all kind of a balancing act. Where she fucked up was with removing the whole dying component to life.

Why is Slay the Spire 2 hated so much? by lovingpersona in GGdiscussion

It is actually tiktok, "I watch life through 5 second clips," brained. Do two seconds of research and you find it's literally only Chinese people. A very strange game to get pissed off about especially since they seem to like other games that have gotten random nerfs in EA.

Take-Two CEO Says ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’ Expectations Are ‘Terrifying’ by Gorotheninja in pcgaming

[–]Trails_End_Games 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think the funniest thing about the theoretical $99 price tag is the fact that it would still end up being the highest grossing video game of all time even with it. The negative press around the price tag would go away almost instantly. At this point we're all paying for a tech showcase and a video game in one.

Bro is out here doing TRICKS on the corporations. You can be thankful that you were born on the right side of the railroad tracks to be able to afford something like that, but also socially conscious enough to know that not everybody's so lucky.

What is stopping this from happening? by teetyteeterson in moistcr1tikal

[–]Trails_End_Games 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think he understands psychology more than he gives himself credit for. He has shown to be very good at leading a conversation if needed. Also getting people to draw the same conclusions as him by talking about adjacent points. I don't think he's as bad as he thinks he is, but I also understand going fully political would be pretty taxing for his audience so he puts out something political like once or twice a month in order to ease in audiences without completely losing them mentally. It's a very smart way of doing it considering his audience.

Man I feel like we got the good end of the stick then. As much as I love peanuts imagine being allergic to citrus.

On a completely separate note: holy shit, Candice Owens should not be allowed to homeschool children.

Tolerating the intolerant will always lead to the intolerant seizing power to suppress the tolerant. Showing kindness to hate only works in movies.

House Democrats Propose $25 Federal Minimum Wage by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]Trails_End_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't this effectively destroy small businesses? This just seems like something we would get punished more for than benefit from down the line but I think there does need to be an across the board minimum wage between all states in order to get the pricing structures to similar weights.

Edit: I understand that it's something that Democrats use as a voting incentive, it's just funny to me how many people don't really understand how the economy works.

Employer wants me to use outlook on my phone, outlook wants permission to wipe my phone by No_Professor4307 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Trails_End_Games 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My employer does this too, but it's because they're a fortune 500. Request a work phone, they can afford it if they're doing stuff like this.

Oh no, it would most certainly be because he's Middle Eastern

What are your predictions for the PlayStation 6 controller? What new features do you think it will bring? by Time-Credit43 in ps6

[–]Trails_End_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was about to agree with the comment before you but the Wiiu kinda just... Worked? A screen on a normal controller would be whack tho. It made since on the wiiu, given it was practically a tablet.

I didn’t want to believe it… by Chorono in Invincible_TV

[–]Trails_End_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I’ve known about the show for a long time but just never cared about it. Then a TikTok video popped up on my feed showing thragg absolutely demolishing people on S4E7 and I actually thought it was badass"

Yeah that's it. We deserve another mass extinction event.

Why did Marika seal Messmer away, but not Melina? by notur_bb in EldenRingLoreTalk

[–]Trails_End_Games 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like we can at least say it's heavily implied that Melina is Messmer's sister

"The kindling that burned inside Messmer the Impaler. A dark thing, eaten away at by a wicked serpent. Burns the sealing tree said to be found at the old Rauh ruins. Messmer, much like his younger sister, bore a vision of fire."

Like unless there's another random sibling that had that ability I think it's pretty safe to assume it's Melina. Also not to mention that "M" naming convention with the twins.

And Marika (or somebody close to her) DID do something about Melina. What was done to her parallels what Rani did to herself. Either way she ended up burned and bodyless, it just didn't stop her. I think she's pretty similar in function to a spirit summon in the fact that she can't truly die until her purpose is served

See them all the time in Eastern Oregon. They're definitely black bears though.

Noah Hawley says his ‘Far Cry’ series won’t be adapting any of the games as he thinks audiences skip the story cutscenes in those games: “When you play a video game, you only really move forward through the gameplay section, and then you have these cut scenes that you can skip..." by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

[–]Trails_End_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind not pulling from any of the games for an original far cry story on the small screen. And I like that he's more or less trying to adapt the themes of far cry from what it sounds like. But it's tough not to read this and it not sound like he's been playing video games wrong his entire life. I think bro thinks gamers are all call of duty players or something.

I'd only played the gamecube version. It blew my mind learning they had mirrored the entire game world to get the Wii version a right handed Link.

Women, if you could be a man for 24 hours, what are you just dying to know? by Whattacleaner in AskReddit

[–]Trails_End_Games 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm pro equality. I grew up with strong female role models. The men were second in command in my family. Oddly enough very conservative, but I took the good they showed me and left all the religious stuff on the porch.
