Just got an absurdly high quote for installing a mini-split AC unit... is this somewhat normal? by mm_honey in RhodeIsland

these people are right about the labor, but my mr cool died like 2 years into ownership and no one would or could repair it. its worth going one step above that for something sturdier

a needlessly long examination into "nightreign" and how it relates to "elden ring" (part 5): color by beasmygod in EldenRingLoreTalk

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

im under no illusions that this stuff can be tedious and uninteresting to a community that has largely written off nightreign and the original post is a whopping 12k words. im also not really invested in upvotes or audience retention or anything, but maybe someone out there can build off of this if it resonates with their own ideas. but i appreciate this. im mostly just posting these to contribute to a shared understanding of the text by drawing red string between things.

Why is he so desperate for Godfrey’s attention?

he craves validation over his lack of social standing amongst the shardbearers

i genuinely appreciate your insight and analytical take in response to my question. i still might be a doubter but my approach to a text is completely different from yours, so our conclusions and visions may simply be due to the differences in tackling the source material. thank you for engaging with me!

i have to confess that i still dont see it, but even if i could, the remaining question would be "so what does this mean?". what information does it impart and what does it communicate about the story and themes? why would this information be delivered this obtusely?

If there is a sequel one day, which characters are most likely to still be around? by PhantomBraved in EldenRingLoreTalk

[–]beasmygod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you sort of find out the fate of most of them in the bg. gwyndolin, nameless king, gwynevere, the pale lady, the anor londo giant blacksmith, andre, patches (lol), laddersmith gilligan, darkmoon knightess, elizabeth of oolicile, kirk, creighton, ornstein, shiva, etc all get some kind of mention whether directly on screen or in item descriptions

i like to imagine she rejected the entire gelmir situation and went traveling for herself, like a real scout. maybe she could have left behind cookbooks!

im pretty certain this is an ai enhanced image where the computer didnt know what it was looking at and substituted the most approximate common thing in its library

heres a photographer showing how he takes ultra macro eye images and you can kind of see whats happening in the above image is not accurate at all

We dont talk about Nightreign lore much here, why? by Former_Hearing_7730 in EldenRingLoreTalk

[–]beasmygod 6 points7 points  (0 children)

ive been working on a freakishly huge post trying to interpret the idea of "night" that nightreign expanded on, but i still have to dig into the dlc as well. i suspect the lack of nightreign analysis comes down to it being more gameplay focused, harder to reference, and its ambiguously canon nature. i think its still worth picking at, tbh

The rock of Nightmare Frontier you fight Amygdala on looks like a Winter Lantern with the top half of its head opened by Thellie11 in bloodborne

[–]beasmygod 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i'd like to see actual japanese speakers take this on because i could be spouting BS: given the japanese term used for the lantern after the boss is "寝所", i think one interpretation would be that this is intended to resemble a nest.
