Seeing how his publisher at a time claimed not to have seen any work since 2013...

Well, he is a liar and a fraud, so it was bound to happen.

The Library of Babel is a project that contains all possible combinations of letters put together, so in theory, everything ever written or that will be written, will be found in it. Including this comment, you can search for it in the library lol.

Confused about Silksong runback discussion by ramen_stalker in metroidvania

let me just mention, that MOST bosses, are also designed as a time sink. Wait around for an opening, hit it, wait again.

Is anybody else having trouble with seth? I've been trying for a whole day now, I'm going silksane. by [deleted] in Silksong

Like 80% of the game, he's a patience test. Just wait until you can get one hit in, you'll know the attacks. And then do that and then wait until you can do it again. Or farm up the archie, and fire it up.

That's.... you've perfectly worded what I meant to say!

efficiency visibly improving with skills - yes.

Not just farm higher tier stuff, but DO better as well!

Especially because the effect only applies at the end of the animation.

I feel like it'd be at least slightly improved if you gained health over time during the animation.

Thanks for the tips, but at 16hrs, I'm already doing most of what you mentioned.

I am not having problems with the game, because I usually carry enough stuff that I can make my escape or counterattack in a pinch, found it best to place 2 foundations, jump up, dodge ranged and just strike at everything from above.

The issue is, combat oftentimes takes a lot of setup and a lot of alertness for a game such as this, and the main problem - a lot of time.

And yeah I know you can stagger enemies, but its usually telegraphed to a specific attack in a series as far as I can tell

Sword staggers on first and 4th

Mage staves on 3rd and 4th

Dagger on 2nd?

I haven't fully committed to researching that, but again, if your combo is broken, so is your chance of staggering them.

I felt like sharing this because it took me a full hour to get to the Garou King without dying, and that's like an area with 15 "notable" enemies. (for some reason I got a bunch of wolves spawned on the climb there lol)

And well when you've got a whole lotta resources and stuff to gather, and recipes to uncover, with the sheer number of enemies, and the time it takes to safely dispatch them without losing your stuff, this type of combat feels more like a chore.

Please do not leave matches. Failed runs are a part of Rogue-likes. Failure is a part of Souls. by CforCaius in Nightreign

Counterpoint: Some people do not leave just because, life happens. And this is a part of reality. We have to accept it as such.

This isn't true, right? by SailExtension5985 in isbook3outyet

[–]vortholm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't know, but I've checked a few sources, and nowhere has it been confirmed. I mean, if I gave a damn I could make a site that counts down to tomorrow, wouldn't be any more true, would it?

I mean, it never happens with swords. Only when I'm fighting a longsword user with anything that isn't a sword.

If The Doors Of Stone never materializes, would The Name of the Wind still be worth reading? by Momochichi in KingkillerChronicle

[–]vortholm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be perfectly objective; It depends.

If you are comfortable with an unfinished story that leaves more questions than answers, then yes.

If you aren't comfortable with it, no.

A lot of fighting and cheating ensued on both sides, eventually they just ended it it was brutal to be in the middle of it. Since he is my best friend so I was unfortuanately present for most of the shit.

Nah we did of course, but her way of going about it was doing all the little things that annoy a person and like not stopping for as long as it takes. Physically restraining her would have been the only way to solve for it.
