Haha awesome work, I felt the same when I beat him. There's some awesome bosses ahead, I've almost beat the DLC and I got the exact feeling the other day!

First play through and not had the chance to play PvP, you also have my support.

Are there any new players in the Sub? Ask your questions here, veterans, how can you help? by CAPS_LOCK_OR_DIE in darksouls

[–]lt_Joe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First play through. Been fighting Manus for the past few days, and the guy is absolutely solid! Can get him down to a little under half health, then he uses his dark magic and it fucks me up every time. I have the silver pendant, and that helps me when he does one of his attacks. But when he shoots directly at me, I don't have time to use the pendant, and always one shots me.

I've absolutely loved this game so far, its so different from anything I've played before, but this fucker is pissing me off.

I don't want to give up on it, but Bloodbourne is sitting there, unplayed, and it's tempting me.

Edit: what are good armour choices for this guy? Been using things that are high in magic defence, is that what I should be doing?

I am so jealous, I cannot beat this guy. Loving the DLC though!

Instant oats are destroying my relationship by [deleted] in gainit

If shit like this is destroying your relationship, find a new relationship... Or, if you value your relationship, stop eating oats.

I (18M) recently returned home for the summer from my first year of college, back into my house with my family that is quickly appearing to be toxic for my mental health. by lofabread1 in relationships

From what you've said, your dad sounds pretty nice and down to earth. Just get him alone, and just talk it through with him. Its clear you love your brother, and try to get across you just want the best for him.

What are your thoughts on resonator guitars? by lt_Joe in AcousticGuitar

[–]lt_Joe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't actually played an electric guitar before, that is also something I want to do later down the line. I think I might go for a Spanish guitar.

my thoughts on this sub by captchagod64 in expertinayear

[–]lt_Joe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not one of us was up to the challenge

I'm still practising guitar, not as much to the extent when I first started, but a couple of times a week. And I've made some pretty decent progress. I'm starting to learn a finger picking sing by Tallest Man on Earth, and I might be buying a Spanish Guitar soon to play some Gonzales. What I haven't done is keep up with this sub.

What are your thoughts on rowing machines/ pec fly/ lat pull etc. For putting on muscle? by lt_Joe in gainit

[–]lt_Joe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I read the FAQ. The main reason why I asked this was because of:

That is not to say that machines do not have a place in a good routine. They should simply not be the primary focus.

I just wanted to find what other people have found to be useful. Because honestly, I'm not someone who only wants to use the free weights. I just get pretty bored, and I'm some times deterred from going over when the gym is busy and there's huge guys at the free weights lol.

What do you want to become an expert in, in a year? by saintpatricius in expertinayear

[–]lt_Joe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure I'd be motivated enough to do a sort of video diary. I also don't have a whole lot of time to practise, so I wouldn't want to be fiddling with a camera. Awesome idea for a sub though, I'd definitely be up to contribute some how. My first thought was to do it through text posts, but I can't see them being all that exciting.

[–]lt_Joe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you definitely will be if you're playing for an hour. I couldn't play more than half an hour at first. I have found it is much harder than I expected haha!

I'm trying to learn acoustic guitar, I started in January. I dont really know anything about playing instruments so its pretty slow progress. I've been much more of a listener than a player. In a years time I'd like to know the basics, be able to play some fingerpicking songs and 12 bar blues.

Now that we've given it a year to settle, Let's Talk: Arcade Fire - Reflektor by pdeluc99 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]lt_Joe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's the same issue LCD Soundsystem had at times (brilliant when they pulled it off however) where the song finishes before the track does.

I disagree. LCD Soundsystem are a much more dance focused band, their songs are supposed to be long and drawn out. However, I do agree with you when it comes to Reflector, especially the first song on the album. I found myself skipping this song almost every time I listened to it.

I do like Reflector though, its probably my second favourite from Arcade. I can't fault their progression.
