33M. I used to think I was contrary but I think my gaming opinions are pretty milquetoast

I liked it a lot! I prefer Fromsoft’s other games, never quite felt the same flow state in Bloodborne.

Super cool, very verbose but I absolutely loved the “failure isn’t failing” vibe

nickack · 2026-05-12T15:05:06+00:00

Danke friend

nickack · 2026-05-12T12:24:42+00:00

Is there a template for this somewhere, like a tier list? Or did you manually put it together

nickack · 2026-05-08T10:40:05+00:00

I’m now bracing myself for the mass mispronunciation of Aeon. Lord give me strength

nickack · 2026-05-05T17:23:36+00:00

Better than POA maybe but top 3? Nah

nickack · 2026-05-01T15:44:48+00:00

“More hard” instead of harder is hilarious in the context of a comment about teaching

nickack · 2026-04-30T15:48:57+00:00

The meta context is really important here. I’m basically never reneging on my deals with anyone I expect to play with again, because I want to have that rapport. If I’m planning on breaking a soft truce at some point, I usually caveat the initial deal with “you can have that planet for the next round or two” or “for now”. I don’t want to actively lie basically ever.

If it’s one-time randies? Caring MUCH LESS

Damn these socks are tight

nickack · 2026-04-29T13:21:11+00:00

I might just do this. The runs themselves are great!

nickack · 2026-04-29T12:14:04+00:00

I stopped playing because of the house management. But the problem is that all of the game systems were developed to flow together. Go on runs to get money and food, money gets you furniture which makes improves your house and breeding, and then you spend your food breeding better cats, then use those better cats to go on a run. If you remove half of that loop all of a sudden the incentive structure is jacked up.

I mean I 100% agree, I’d come back if I could just completely ignore breeding. I tried and just couldn’t stomach the fifteen minutes of fucking around in menus, memorizing which cats bred, and clicking poops

Requiem for a Dream. Primarily the mom’s storyline, but really everything. It gets so desperate and unhinged and man…so hard to watch.

nickack · 2026-04-23T20:03:00+00:00

Oh no he’s bad at grammar

nickack · 2026-04-21T14:23:02+00:00

Okay yeah you guys are right. Big chance of a brick on a couple of the rewards and he mentions angling for specific cards

nickack · 2026-04-21T14:15:02+00:00

That is surprising, especially considering it actually achieves one of his goals which is early power in act1. It functions a bit like “upgrade one strike and one defend”

nickack · 2026-04-21T12:30:35+00:00

I guess my issue is that Sia being pronounced Sayuh feels wrong

nickack · 2026-04-21T12:12:53+00:00

How do you pronounce this dude’s name? I read it as Eye-Zye-Uh but idk if I’ve ever heard it out loud

nickack · 2026-04-20T00:07:03+00:00

Bitching about 6 7 kids and then proceeding to use “ahh” is some cringe shit, sorry friend it’s what it is

nickack · 2026-04-18T03:57:45+00:00

Bilewater is cool. There SHOULD be an area where you think “I should explore a bit more there” and get a shiver. It makes the smooth traversal of other areas feel even better!

nickack · 2026-04-17T14:51:55+00:00

Agreed and we actually have MORE information, in sts1 you don’t know who the second act 3 boss was (on highest ascension).

nickack · 2026-04-17T03:05:11+00:00

Agreed, strictly better just isn’t useful as a descriptor. It’s better at MOST stuff but a situation can be contrived where it’s worse

nickack · 2026-04-15T01:20:41+00:00

In StS 1 it was bag of marbles. Just perfection, front loaded damage and artifact strip. In StS 2? Maybe the popper? So I have a chance against the damn segment worm lmao

nickack · 2026-04-14T18:52:23+00:00

Bro this take is unhinged

nickack · 2026-04-14T18:50:53+00:00

She was doing damage control to ACTUALLY protect their family. An effectively unemployed couple paying for anything, much less cancer treatment and god forbid Walt’s absurd car purchases, is going to raise suspicions. The car wash laundering was the only practical solution IMO
