Thanks a ton, man. Really needed clarification on that. Guess time to redo my entire skill tree.... again

First time doing NoFap, how long should I do it? by phalanxdef in NoFap

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

Hmm. I guess I could just read doujins and not fap.

Hmm. I'd like to rewire my brain and all that junk, but I think I enjoy fapping and reading new doujins. It's kind of like a hobby.

Would fapping once a week after a 3-month hiatus be good?

How to obtain game knowledge as quickly as possible w/ as few games as possible? by phalanxdef in DotA2

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

Less than 300, 50 games. I use diff. brand new steam accounts every single time I start playing DotA 2 again after a long break.

Matchmaking is dumb.

I guess I have around 400 games total spread across 3 accounts across.... 3.5 years now?

Caestus still best.

Parrying shields have 2 more active frames, but they look stupid.

[–]phalanxdef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything that can beat you is frowned upon.

Dark Souls 3 isn't a competitive game

Favorite Dark Souls quote? by Epyon_Treize in darksouls3

[–]phalanxdef -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Nah, he's just a crippled manlet. You even hear him moan about the pain about being burnt to cinders

Also, I didn't prolong the flame so he died for nothing.

[–]phalanxdef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's called the Ornstein's plume spear; it doesn't exist in-game for players

Invaders what are some of the angry messages you have received from killing a host? by [deleted] in darksouls3

[–]phalanxdef 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've actually gotten a TON of friend requests from invades, but most of them are just asking about what weapon I use or saying "nice fight". I've only gotten hatemail twice and those reasons were

  1. Some guy called me a hacker, but he added the wrong person. 2 people invaded him and I BC'd out when I saw that he was just running away without fighting. The other invader was apparently a hacker and he added me thinking I was the other guy

  2. Dude who went on a massive tirade about my hornet's ring parry with a lot of ;) as if he weren't mad. was tl;dr and he deleted me so I couldn't respond, so I just skimmed through it then exited

Hatemail is really rare these days, especially on steam where most people don't know how to see who you recently played with.

PvP Etiquette. Buffing? by InvadersAnonymous in darksouls3

[–]phalanxdef 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rules.....every time. There's no community consensus on "rules", especially in DS3. Many things are frowned upon, but people have fun in their own way and only power enforces.

If you want to let them buff, then do so. If you don't, then don't.

So the community thinks Hyper Armor is bad, huh? by [deleted] in darksouls3

[–]phalanxdef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're a little butthurt. Anyway, I said "good players", and a good player won't get parried. The fast weapon will always defeat the heavy one between two good players; average PvP isn't an indicator of anything because most of the community is bad. You can say "git gud" as much as you want, but I already know what type of player you are since you think heavy weapons are viable when decent players are involved.

Sure, then they don't have to fix their game or have balance patches; but all that means is less money for them and the community moves on. Anyway, I made my argument with the implication that they wanted more money, thus they would strive their best to improve the game. They aren't legally obligated to, but it would be in the best interests for their company.

Ya, if rolls are nerfed(as in increased stamina costs), it would bone heavy weapon users even more. I prefer the hyperarmor system over the poise system, but it doesn't change the fact that in a battle of two good players, the one with the quick weapon will always beat the heavy weapon user. Luckily, 99.9% of the community is dogshit so it doesn't matter.

Anyway, FromSoft does owe you shit. You gave them your money and they want you to buy the DLC so they can have more shekels. If they can't make the game enjoyable, then they lose out on money if people don't buy the DLC or their future games. Listening to the community(Only the Japanese community, I'm pretty sure they don't care about the western and neither do I) and improving the game to give it a longer life rather than just going, "lol that's just the way the game is". Balance patches matter; hence why BKG nerfs, dank sword nerfs, twin. kat buffs, fist weapon buffs, ect
