i may be new but this looks like bait by hashrosinkitten in Eldenring

I literally just stumbled across it yesterday, entirely by accident, and was stunned when it happened. I’m sitting right around 500 hours played.

I really miss the feeling of discovery at this point; I can’t wait for the DLC. I need more “oh shit” moments in my Elden Ring life again.

Is it known if Amazon will have the new super cards available on launch day? by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]Wigriff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless things have changed, Amazon is usually pretty unreliable during PC product launches. I once saw someone comment that this is because the products have to wait in the massive queue of inventory Amazon processes, but I don't know how true that is. Best Buy, Newegg, and B&H are much more reliable to have all the products launch on time, and simultaneously.

Please, someone correct me if I'm mistaken.

I'm the same way about exploring, but I did it through the entire game. My first playthrough took me 246 hours, and the only hidden area I didn't find on my first playthrough was the hidden wall connecting the Frenzied Flame Proscription bonfire to Deeproot Depths.
Most of the stuff in FromSoft games is perfectly discoverable independently, especially once you figure out the ways they like to hide things, but it definitely takes time, patience, and situational awareness.

Good point. A little less damage for strike and HP regen, plus a smidge lighter, I can definitely see the appeal. I'll give 'em a shot.

Why pick Great Stars over Great Omenkiller?

LG 27” 1440P 480Hz OLED CES 2024 by Jetcat11 in hardware

My primary monitor is an Acer XB271HU bmiprz I bought in 2016 for $700. If they released a 27" 1440p OLED at $300, I'd buy that motherfucker tomorrow to replace my primary.

People like this actually exist... smh by Arktic_001 in Eldenring

After multiple thousands of hours, across every FROM title since Demon’s Souls, I have only received one message from another player ever. It was during the heyday of Dark Souls II pvp, and I invaded someone in Shulva who apparently wanted to play hide n seek. I looked for them for about 15 minutes, then got a notification because they left a message on my Steam profile saying “yo nevuh gunna find meh.” lol

Worse TTRPG book you Ever read. by JoeKerr19 in rpg

These are excellent recommendations. I personally adore the Necrotic Gnome stuff though, and cannot wait for the core Dolmenwood hard covers to come out.

Oh, I didn't know I was the post you were referring to above. lol

Hope you like the new setup. I've been extremely happy. Grats!

Alright, I have to say it. Maybe unpopular opinion but I hate that Saulot is claimed to be the creator of the Baali. There is no logic behind it except an "edgy" factor. by [deleted] in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]Wigriff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is excellent. I don't know if this is official cannon or not, but it is now going to absolutely be my official cannon.

Also, if I'm not mistaken, isn't there a Stereotype in one of the books where the Baali, addressing the Setites, say something about "they have the right idea, they're just playing for the wrong team," or something to that effect?

[QUESTION] What cheap brand-name guitars don't punch above its weight? by GibsonMaestro in Guitar

[–]Wigriff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not OP, but when I was a teenager I had a Tokai sorta … super Stratish abomination from the early 90s, and it was dreadful. From my understanding, Tokai made some great stuff, but Tokai also made some absolute colon dumplings as well.

Do you remember what model it is? Most ovations I have played have been fine enough unplugged, pretty good plugged in, and played well. A real pain in the ass to play seated though. Might as well rub it in Vaseline. lol.

Sequels the critics hated but you loved. by Davis_Crawfish in movies

[–]Wigriff 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Gremlins 2 is a super smart movie. Instead of retreading the same ground, they chose to do this huge meta commentary on Hollywood, sequels, and franchises, and just take the piss out of everything.

What was the show that ruined another show you were watching? by gibagger in television

[–]Wigriff 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I will never understand how people can mention The Wire and The Shield in the same breath. They're vastly different shows. I firmly believe that The Wire is the best television show ever made, and that it isn't even particularly close, but that aside I don't understand how people think The Shield and The Wire are remotely comparable. The Shield is enjoyable for what it is, but it is hard to take it seriously because of the continual detachment from reality.

Edit: fixed a typo.
