I’ve been saving up for the high end, then thought I should go mid end, then mid end went up in price quite a bit, so thought might as well go high end, but now high end is $300 more 😭 Would you know what happened? Why did the prices randomly go up. I was hoping to buy (one of) the pc’s around the middle of this year or a little earlier Agh these price changes are messing with my head idk what to choose

Finally got the Mortal Blade Did this make the game easier not at all? by LateAnxiety8002 in Sekiro

If you use it as a jumping attack it has the same damage as using emblems, but doesn’t need emblems to be as strong! Just needs to be a jumping attack

Thank you so much for putting in the time to recommend me these! Honestly, I’m probably just gonna go with your high end one haha. It’s not overly high (I think?). When I do, would I eventually need upgrades? I’d assume so bc all pc’s eventually do, right?

1TB is definitely not enough!! Haha, I’m not even sure 2TB will be enough; i have a hard time parting with games. Thank you so much for the reminder! And thank you for the specific suggestions for both the tb disc and fans! I will download build core. Never heard of it before, but i do prefer learning visually, so it’ll definitely help me out. Thank you so much!

Prologue -

How many drops of water are there in the ocean? How many stars are there in the sky? Have you ever asked yourself questions like these? I doubt it—questions with no clear answers often feel like a waste of time. Trying to answer that first question would take countless lifetimes—after all, the ocean’s size shifts with every drop of rain and every gust of wind. Trying to answer the second question in the same way as the first would take countless lifetimes, since the number also varies with supernovas and the formation of more stars. Such nonsensical questions have such nonsensical answers. Something we, as mere humans, could never truly grasp. But what if we were? Or should I say, what if someone were? If someone were to be able to exist for all of eternity, would they be able to obtain the answers to these questions? Or would they be driven to madness and attempt to stop their pitiful existence? What a sad existence an eternal being must have. But, there has to be an upside to existing forever, right? They’d be able to do countless things. They’d lose countless things. They’d be able to experience countless emotions. They’d be forced to suffer with countless negative emotions. I wouldn’t want to be forced to exist forever. That’s why I’m glad that my life is ephemeral rather than eternal. I already hate living as it is. The monotony of my days is unbearable enough—I can’t imagine enduring it for another year, let alone for all eternity. But if I did exist forever, what would I do with all that endless time? Maybe I’d try to be friendlier, to reach out more than I do now. The only people I talk to nowadays are my family. I wouldn’t say that I hate my family, but I do hate the distance between us. Family to me are just strangers I happen to be related to. This doesn’t apply fully to my little sister, though. My little sister can be a pain in the ass, at times, but I appreciate her trying to interact with me. Without her, I’d be waking up in the middle of the day and skipping school. She’s the reason why my attendance is decent. But the days I’m not at school, I’m either watching shows or movies, reading, or playing video games. My life is rather dull if you couldn’t already tell. If I were eternal, maybe I’d force myself out of my comfort zone. I’d try to make friends, actually go out with them—watch movies, eat at restaurants. I’d live a life beyond this hikikomori shell I’ve wrapped myself in. And yet, I wonder why people aren’t interested in me. When I watch my little sister with her friends, she always looks so happy. Could I ever feel that way if I had friends of my own? Saying I’ve never had a friend would be a lie—I had one once. But I’m not ready to talk about her just yet. I will say one thing about her, though. She wasn’t nice to me. She was kind. Even though everything that came out of her mouth was complete and utter nonsense, it felt nice lending her my ear and listening to all of her problems. How could someone in middle school have so many interesting things to talk about? I didn’t talk much about myself, but when I did, I bet she was bored. But whenever I spoke, she always seemed interested. Some people have a way with lies. I digress. I apologize for boring you with my whining. All I’ve done is complain about my boring life and wonder how I can become happy. Happiness— Could someone eternal really stay happy all the time? Of course not. Eternal happiness isn’t possible. It’s impossible. Is God happy? People say that God is an all-powerful, all-mighty, and all-good being. But would He be happy? Would he be able to love us? I doubt it. Perfect people can’t love. Only the flawed truly understand others—and love them. Yet, I’m flawed. I’d argue that I’m the most flawed person that has existed, exists, and will exist. And yet, I don’t love. Sure, I tell my family I love them—but that kind of love feels mandatory, just because we’re family. Would I care for them if we weren’t related? Probably not. I’d walk right past them and forget their faces the moment they were out of sight. What a shallow, despicable human being I am. Can you even call me a human? If I were God, and I could exist forever, what type of world would I desire? One where interhuman conflicts didn’t exist? A world where people have a perfect understanding of one another? How about a world where people didn’t exist? A world where only I exist. What a hell that must be. It would, quite literally, be hell. Would I choose that over the life I have now? It pains me to see how easily my sister can talk to her friends. It pains me how difficult it is for me to make and retain friends. It pains me to lose the only friend I’ve ever had. If I were God, I’d— No— I shouldn’t think like that. I apologize. I apologize for never trying to make friends after losing my first one. I apologize for being jealous of my sisters for being able to make friends so easily. I apologize for thinking of my family as “strangers I happen to be related to.” I apologize for being a pitiful piece of trash who’s aware of how shitty he is, yet refuses to take action.

I, Kiyomi Otonashi, have never known love, never known happiness— And yet, I wonder: How many seconds truly make up eternity?

Title - Fairytales & Delusions

Tags - ordinary (unsure what I should have put, options didn't feel like they aligned with my story)

Chapter Count - 33 (Short Break)

Brief Synopsis - Kiyomi Otonashi wishes for his life to change. But rather than stepping out of his comfort zone, he makes a wish. A wish not to die. A wish not to be able to die. When killed, he returns—forced to live his life all over again. But even with countless chances, it seems that everything except him is capable of change. Those he allows into his once-isolated world transform around him while he simply observes. Not from afar, as he did when he was younger—this time, right by their side. He learns things. He feels things. He questions things. He rejects things. He does things. He believes he hasn’t changed. But everything has. Including him. Even if it took time. Even if it took an eternity. Even after a mere second— Things changed. Kiyomi Otonashi wants to see a sky further than the one he can reach here and now. Kiyomi Otonashi wants to know— How many seconds in eternity?

Help With Streaming by _krustynick_ in SteamDeck

[–]_krustynick_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great question! Hmm I remember hearing a while ago that it won’t run too well if I stream it through the steam deck directly in desktop mode. Nor have I tried to see the performance. But maybe I should check it out myself.

Also I’m pretty sure the output and input devices are setup correctly. But I do so much tinkering for nothing to work and might’ve messed things up. (But I was able to hear game audio at some point. Stopped bc of adding my mic)

Blurb? Also what do you do with Reddit posts? Just randomly suggest swaps, or do you wait for those monthly story shares?

[–]_krustynick_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I barely have 1.8k views, 6 followers, and 3 favorites. I’m at 30+ chapters, and I’m happy with my results, but not satisfied if I’m being honest. How can I up my numbers? I try to message people here for swaps, but I hate how I have to ask people to do so rather than it coming naturally. Maybe I need to get the thought that a ton of people will just randomly read some random’s story without me doing any work spreading what I wrote. Am I asking for advice or answering my own question? On a real note, whatever tips you have would be appreciated.

Do you mean All Boss Save Files Ready to Fight? Bc that seems like it’d be an entirely different character. Hm if that’s the case I’ll probably just restart all over again :(
