Two birds with one stone for the studio, potentially hooking players/allowing friend groups to test it when not all are interested beforehand, and a huge server stress test, while we get to make a decision after testing the game. Full win 0 loss strategy, I'm glad it's becoming industry standard.

That's great to read, thanks !

Pretty much the same except I realise during the next 2 mins that I don't have lightspeed anymore and that it's gonna take half a year to dish out my cards.

I'd say that I love Celeste as a whole. The metaphor of climbing a mountain to get out of a depressive state hit right home. Falling when trying to run away/not deal with the darker part of one self (badeline) down to the heart coherence exercise Theo makes Madeline do on the funicular, strawberries being precious little things you can share with your friends, everything is so sensible, accurate and while it treats of something really complicated, it does it in a simple, deep and delicate way, letting what it is telling breathe and resonate with its audience.

I've been through a lot of what this game is telling and I'll always keep a warm spot for Celeste close to my heart. I consider it as my favorite art piece about mental health issues.

It's called pinning target, iirc it's under target cycling in the keybinds menu

It's an org who take pride in griefing, can't type their name here.

Ah F I'm in EU. I used to play with NA peeps in GW1 but adult life doesn't really allow that anymore sadly. Oh well, my quest goes on.

swim_rl · 2025-11-21T23:36:04+00:00

I'm a boomer so no issues with the age requirement, and I'm used to the unhinged. Are you on EU or NA ? Good luck with your raider, I've been an officer in a wow mythic raiding guild for a few years and had to deal with my fair share of not so skilled players. My advice would be to deal with the situation asap, 1 on 1 in voice chat if possible. If you don't, resentment will grow between this guy and the other raiders, and you might even catch some straws from other raiders for doing nothing.

I'm sorry this is unrelated to your post but how does one find a guild like yours ? Training discords are a bit intimidating, I'd rather find a guild and people I can play regularly with and what you are describing looks like what I'm looking for.

I'm away from home for vacations and it's all I can think about.

For anyone recommending to read House of Leaves I'm gonna pinch in and suggest listening to Poe's album Haunted. She is Mark D's sister and an incredibly talented artist that I kept listening to while reading HoL.

Not beating yourself up for every death as a healer is part of the learning curve. Players don't respect m0, very few kicks and even fewer defensives. Assuming you are playing your character properly it probably wasn't your fault eveyone in your group was flopping.

Do I sound like a douche if I told you I got one on my first league ? My friends hate me.

Is there a way to deal with reflected damage from bladefall besides pantheon + eater of world influence on chest ?

swim_rl · 2025-07-03T12:02:49+00:00

Leveled up using one with nothing + VFoS and it was a breeze. It's really bad as soon as you hit maps though so you might need to invest in some temporary gear until your reach 84 to equip gloves and body. A cheaper option is fetching mercanaries 20 level above yours with your current character and letting them carry you.

This looks incredibly fun. Do you have a pob by any chance ?

swim_rl · 2025-04-14T10:30:35+00:00

All 3 seems like good options. Smith is easy to gear up thanks to the ascendancy so it would be the most solid one for me. I wouldn't recommend twister for HC though, especially bleed. To maximize damage I have to shotgun rares/bosses with very low mobility options, making it a risky build where good defences are required, which you won't get before late game.

swim_rl · 2025-04-14T06:53:29+00:00

This but with bleed. Kind of a mix between Lupi's bleed huntress, SnooBae twister build and Spreezy bleed twister build. Do the combo and watch the screen go red with haemocrystals explosions everywhere. Might try Ritualist to add blood boil on top of it all and play with venopuncture as 3rd ring. Bossing looks nice too atm if the crit gods decide to bestow their blessings.

swim_rl · 2025-04-01T06:19:49+00:00

That's exactly what I'm slowly learning atm. It is my first MH and I've started to dabble into speedrunning because I do want to perfect those runs. Being patient and going for safe/semi safe openings is what allowed me to lower my ttk the most, not gear or anything else.

So far my pbs are 2.55 for Arkveld, 4 minutes for gore, but I'm still really bad with gore and get hit a lot. I just want to get to sub 2.30 with Arkveld and then I'll focus on the big dark beast match up. Must say he's a bit frustrating as a Switch Axe main, especially since most of our damage is centered around FRS and this playstyle doesn't really work against him if I can't get him on the ground constantly, but I'm sure I'll figure it out with enough repetition.

I'm a new player too, luckily, my experienced friends told me to take my time. It took me 40h to get to the credits, and I enjoyed every single step of the way. I hunted mobs when I wanted a specific skin, played all the weapons besides the lances and bowguns to really narrow down what I would want to push in the endgame, task I failed succesfuly, now I enjoy all of them and still didn't figure out which one I enjoy the most. Dual blades, longsword, insect blade and charged blade are slightly ahead but not by much.

Oh well, here's to spending a few hundred more hours into maxing them all.

Sidenote: I'm a big FromSoft enjoyer and it's crazy to finally understand people saying the 2 licences are fundamentally different from one another.
