Fuckin laaaaaaaaaaaame. I want a roll back option on this. If your gonna rebalance it for everyone crying just give them the “Im afraid to die mode”

Broken_Monitor ,

I likely will run my RL1 guy through it at some point. Man I really hit a nerve with the participation trophies for everyone crowd here, didn’t I?

Broken_Monitor ,

I don’t, they are right, I can create my own challenge. It’s not really what I’m annoyed about either, its the whole design by a committee of vocal internet people which results in the same bland shit over and over. Part of what made these games cool is the things that are unique, and often times the most memorable moments are also the most difficult. Seeing From pivot because a bunch of people whined about it is just disappointing really. There was a time where the tag line for Dark Souls was “Prepare to Die”, but come down the line to Elden Ring and you can really feel how they’ve softened that edge up. The DLC feels like they sharpened the blade for its final outing, and people want it dulled immediately. To me that’s boring. Embrace the challenge and what you will remember and be satisfied by is overcoming it.

Yeah that’s a potentially endless discussion right there. I actually think Sekiro was the hardest, even if it’s technically not a souls game. Part of what makes Elden Ring so easy is the number of tools and abilities to use, the summoning ashes, OP spells, and nearly always being able to summon two helper players for tough fights. Melania is so much like fighting Isshin, I think he’s way harder than her, and especially because you have to nail the timing with him. There’s no respeccing, using cheesy spells, or summoning help with that guy. Don’t get me wrong, Elden Ring is a great game, but most of the difficulty is easily overcome by just trying out the other stuff you can use.

There’s a UI mod that makes a world of difference. Adds categories and columns for sorting, one of the categories is junk so you know what you can just trash without worries. Another is a weight/value ratio so its easier to drop heavy armor that looks sort of valuable but really isnt. It saves an incredible amount of time. Game still takes forever to beat if you wanna do all the quests.

Broken_Monitor ,

Yeah by my standards pic 1 looks fantastic. For anyone who thinks otherwise, whatever you do, don’t move to an American city.

Why not serve fried chicken on Juneteenth? How is it different from serving corned beef on St. Patrick’s day? ( old.lemmy.world )

Disclaimer: I am not trolling, I am an autistic person who doesn’t understand so many social nuances. Also I am from New Hampshire (97% white), so I just don’t have any close African-American friends that I am willing to risk asking such a loaded question.

Broken_Monitor ,

Every time this comes up I gotta say, who the fuck doesn’t like fried chicken and watermelon?! It’s like making fun of someone for liking sunshine and the ability to breathe. Not that I needed another reason to point at racists and call them a bunch of fucked up morons, but goddamn they are bunch of fucked up morons.

Broken_Monitor ,

Thats why you just gotta keep eating more. More flavor! Also yes some definitely have more flavor than others, I’m no good at picking them but if you cut it open and it’s deep red you’re probably in for a good tome.

Broken_Monitor ,

I really tried to pick two things that couldn’t be argued with so now I’m just waiting for someone to tell me they don’t like breathing either.

Broken_Monitor ,

Holy fuckin shit

Broken_Monitor ,

Yes. Seriously stop giving them free content.

Broken_Monitor ,

Switch to Tor? I dunno of that solves this problem but it’s probably worth switching anyway.

Broken_Monitor ,

I look at this thing wondering why the hell it has 9 antennas?? Or is that really just for looks? Which only raises more questions really…

Is there a website that collects Donald Trump's most incoherent speeches and tweets?

Sorry if this is the wrong community for this. I'm looking for a compilation of Trump's most rambling moments (e.g., "Look, having nuclear"; Gettysburg being beautiful; etc.). Does anyone know of any sites that would have something like this? Thank you!

Broken_Monitor ,

I was going to suggest r/thedonald back on that shit show called reddit, but hey just go straight to the source!

Broken_Monitor ,

Ah of course. I can’t say I’m surprised at that

Broken_Monitor ,

Seems that way. Windows 10 support stops October 2025. You have until then to switch, but I suggest getting familiar with a Linux distro now if you can.

Broken_Monitor ,

For games as a whole, I will go way back to Medal of Honor: Frontline. All the Medal of Honor games are about war (mostly WW2) but this one really stuck with me for its depiction of storming the beach on D-Day. You really did have to sprint from cover to cover where there was barely any while soldiers around you get mowed down by MGs from the bunkers ahead. It was intense and one wrong move would have you annihilated. There’s definitely a long list of military shooters depicting battlefields where you work your way through from cover to cover, but this one was one of the earliest I can think of that did it well, depicted a real battle, and really drove home the absolute insanity of the situation those soldiers went through.

On the complete opposite end there’s always the dynasty warriors games where you melee fight through battlefields full of soldiers, but those are ridiculous for being completely unrealistic in the process. However, they do all retell the classic stories of real battles that took place between the ancient Chinese battles, and for the ones I played pretty much every level involved navigating a huge battlefield to turn the tide between two armies clashing as you went.

I was just gifted a bag of Domain Kona and thought it was excellent. Admittedly I’m new to better coffee so my palette may not be as refined as other people’s, but I haven’t had anything better yet. This stuff is very pricey so I’m searching for some middle ground, but I would treat myself to this again.

Broken_Monitor ,

I keep seeing this pop up lately like its news. Its so obvious. How do people not realize that combustion of nearly everything creates carcinogens? It’s like cigarettes all over again. If you take something thats already bad for you, light it on fire, then inhale what that creates, what are the chances that its now not bad for you?

Broken_Monitor ,

Monty Python and Futurama is the crossover I never knew I wanted

    This image looks so familiar. NES cartridge cover for Gauntlet, maybe?? I don’t know if its that but my brain is having some weird nostalgia twitch looking at it.

    Broken_Monitor ,

    Haha I looked it up too. It’s not really the same, maybe a little similar to the goblin shown on the title screen but even that is a stretch.

    Broken_Monitor ,

    Its all fun and games until they shut off some poor bystander’s pacemaker. Not that the police give a flying fuck about collateral damage at this point.

    If Reddit had a soul/conscience, I think it was us, and we're all on Lemmy now...

    As a little background, I didn't actively use Reddit for months following the blackout. I still barely stop in over there and if I do I'm never logged in our contributing to the communities there (where I was previously a daily poster/commenter)....

    Broken_Monitor ,

    I was wondering if I’m in the socially awkward category or the neurodivergent category… pretty sure I’m both.

    Broken_Monitor ,

    I dont even know what BGS is so they must suck.

    Broken_Monitor ,

    Oh hahaha I know them. Yeah they suck, havent released anything good since like… Fallout 3? Maybe Doom 2016? I do mix uo the dev and the publisher in this case but wow the latest fallout games and starfield were utterly tragic

    Broken_Monitor ,

    Shit if you really wanted to you could use Blender too
