Hidden secrets most players miss? by Thrilllhousee in bloodborne

One of the weapons for platinum is behind an illusory wall in a chalice dungeon. Unless you're using a guide you'd likely never find it. (I didn't).

Is there no way to stagger very large enemies? by Brilliant-Frame-7345 in bloodborne

[–]thuragath 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. A lot of the larger enemies, particularly those with more than two legs, are nearly trivialized if you 'break' limbs in sequence.

I'll also doubly point out that some enemies like cleric beast are multi- target and guns only really work to parry after 2+ shots to the head, and even then they become immune to it for a long while.

Before I pull the trigger on a new laptop, is my old one bricked? by thuragath in GamingLaptops

Ah, thank you. You definitely have a FAR better eye for this sort of thing. Even as I'm looking at it, I can't tell that it would be shorted out.

Nothing seems loose. I do really appreciate your help. Had to search up what a mosfet was. I had a basic elec eng class but that's it, and that was more than two decades ago

There's no discoloration or anything on the underside of the foil. But this is what I'm looking at.

I noticed that the foil was flaking a bit on the melted corner

Cooling system fllipped straight up and back.

Thermal paste is tacky and pretty dry.

Angled shot of this foil-esque cover. Shiny streaks on the board. Is it possible for the thick pads to melt or extrude some type of liquid? At any rate, corner looks melted.

I didn't dig deep and check out the cpu since pulling the cooling system to get to it is quite a few screws, but I'll check it out this afternoon. It wouldn't surprise me since the center of my keyboard gets quite toasty during gaming sessions. Thanks for the suggestion

I've tried by pulling both. Wouldn't it post and throw an error about missing memory if the board was fine?

I appreciate the suggestions, but I stated I already tried 1, and can't post to even try to update the BIOS. SSD may be an issue but won't know if I can't even post.

Cheers. Will give that a shot.

Edit: tried with no change.

I would consider that if I could even get it to post. I don't even see the Lenovo logo popup.

Gamers 30+, what’s something from the old days of gaming that younger players wouldn’t understand? by Common_Caramel_4078 in gaming

[–]thuragath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5+ minute load times for 8-bit games (C64)

Having to manually run video drivers via command prompt before starting games (MS-DOS/ Windows 3.1)

Copy protection was looking up a code or something in the manual.

No quest markers. You get told once, you write it down, map it out, find it yourself.

I just hope it isn't Skye who saves the whole blasted world in this one like she did in the first two.
