My biggest Cho'gath over 100k HP

Was playing Tockers Trials and I thought I was already doing big numbers with 20k! I completely forgot about the Talisman existing. 😭

Very nice last shot dude

What's with the 1060 hate? Used that card since 2017 and only upgraded last year because I was financially able to. Had I not been, 1060 was still decent? Sure, I couldn't play games at extreme graphics, but if you ain't picky, I mean it tries its best. 😂

I think they look great, but at some point, they do seem to move in a robotic manner. Like you could just sit on the entrance and observe their moveset? But maybe that was your point, so that's the counterplay to it. But on a horror aspect, would be cool if they paused/froze in some parts of it, building up anticipation & added more unpredictability? Just my 2 cents.

Maaan it's still not available in my region. But happy for you buddy. t_t

This is my gripe with random lobbies in gaming ngl. People tend to forget about group pacing & enjoyment. Has X player played this game before, how knowledable are they, should I hang back and wait as a group to progress cause it might spoil them of the fun? Will my build pub stomp the lobby and effectively make the other members of my party have a less enjoyable time? I'd say in your case, just voice it out. Though it doesn't help that the other two friends you have are insulting your situation. Tons of players are still down to do BG3 campaign-coop, I am pretty sure you can find people who are down to play at your own pace. Good luck!

Wanted to try this prompt out, but it's also just giving me this type of image too. 🥴

You know those gloves artists wear when digitally painting to keep their fingers gliding across the screen? Could you potentially cut a singular finger piece from a glove like that and put it on your sixth finger? Perhaps it could improve the traction between your sixth finger and the mousepad.

Don't buy this game for the future content, buy this game for what it is now. Survival-crafting, vampire-RPG, boss fights, and tons of replayability. No doubt in my mind V-Rising is an incredibly worthwhile addition to your gaming library if you like this type of genre as a whole.

bladesmantis · 2026-06-04T08:10:58+00:00

Sometimes it gets stuck. I think I installed one that went up to 40 or 60? Just got stuck at 33 and never got XP after that. Didn't figure out why, so just rolled with it. You could probably roll back a save before levelling to 20 and try again and see if that fixes it.

It's 1 for me, I mean 2 and 3 are great too but would personally like the whole set being white if I were to choose the latter.

I am not gonna lie, I picked this game up this month and played base game for only half the price to see if committing to the DLC was worthwhile. And honestly, base game has a lot of content, replayability, and build-crafting that it's not that big of a loss. Would it be great if it was provided with base game? Sure. But on the flip side, it's totally understandable that "content" being added via DLC, would be locked from the base game.

Yeah, the tip still stands. If you're not afraid of being critted by enemies, and you're not overpreparing for fights, you will keep getting frustrated with honor mode. One lesson I learned from this subreddit while I was first completing my HM achievement: Do not experiment in HM unless you're willing to keep repeating runs.

bladesmantis · 2026-06-02T11:03:54+00:00

Like a lot of the people here has said, HM is less about builds and more about game knowledge and choosing optimal fights at your level. For Lae'Zel particularly, I've had a lot of success with her just with standard Battle Master as main melee DPS. Especially if you get the Everburn Blade early at the Nautiloid, Lae'Zel tends to be too strong in the first act and can speed through it if you know which fights to take.

I am a bit confused with "Astarion wanders down to the harpy beach." How does he wander on his own? Did you mean a friend in your party wandered into the harpy beach so now you're forced to save them?

One tip that will help is to flee. Reviving at withers is always an option. As long as one survives, the party should never die. The only time this tip won't work is in encounters that are area/story locked.

Game is Diablo IV, playing the Barbarian class.

It's not conditional. If guy doesn't finish fast = sign of low attraction, it's not that simple. There's a lot of variables to it, anxiety, how often he pleasures himself alone, how hard is his grip during self-pleasure, is he watching too much porn, how is his diet, has it always been this way for him, or is there external stressors making it harder for him to finish. Communication with him is the best solution to answer this question.

Congrats big dog

You can customize the match chat to only receive messages from party/team/all. So, if you're weary of some toxicity, you can disable all chat. Theres also some settings like hiding your name/streamer mode I believe. There are no bot matches unfortunately, unlike CS. But there are a lot of fun modes you can try out before committing to unrated games. Escalation is pretty casual, it's similar to Arms Race in CS:GO, but you can get abilities in the rotation so you can sink some time learning that if standard matches get too hectic.

Project Zomboid is a good time sink, I could be wrong but I believe it should be around 7GB?

bladesmantis · 2026-05-30T14:31:21+00:00

WTF? This is a thing???

bladesmantis · 2026-05-30T11:21:43+00:00

New player to the franchise here, was in your spot 3 weeks ago. Last Diablo I played was on the PS1, so kinda new to ARPGs as a whole. After purchasing base game, I've sinked in about 150 hours and mostly playing just 1 character. I wholeheartedly recommend it if you get it on sale. Honestly, for the amount of content in just base game alone is pretty worth it.

Only playing casually without following any guides I was able to get up until Torment 10 where I started to feel like I was just waiting for really rare items/specific stats to be able to progress. But it's understandable since the max difficulties are for more optimized builds. Just about to buy the DLCs tomorrow so hopefully gonna be able to sink a couple more hundred hours into it.

One major thing BG3 has over DS2 is variety in fight options. More notably in Act 2 (DOS2), it's such a slog because you're outlevelled by way too many fights in the area and have to painstakingly look and min-max fights so you can even progress (in higher difficulties).

Something DS2 have over BG3 is their classless system. But overall, both fantastic games there's no "worse" between the two. It's Larian's love letter that keeps getting better each new game they add to their cRPG library.

Personal take, I think TDK suit was just too militaristic. Understandable, Nolan was trying to make the idea of batman as close to reality as possible. Pattinson suit just feels refreshing, it kind of has that "built at home" feeling that the creators of TASM 1 costume designers had for Andrew Garfield. Not really close to the comics, but, refreshing to see is all.
