I just got my first VPS ever a few weeks ago and now a price hike ohh myy gaaaawdd (MFW it’ll be like 30 cents more or sum)

The combat isn’t bad, and the animations are really good (especially getting body slammed by a 600 kg sumo wrestler) but to me it just boils down to parrying until an attack window opens.
I know you have quite a few options with status effects and being able to use two weapons in tandem, but I rarely use those features. Regular enemies die too fast to be worth applying poison and bigger ones take so many hits they don’t get poisoned at all.
And why should I switch weapons if my main weapon deals double the damage of my next best weapon.

So at least for me combat is just rhythmic parrying and attacking. Again not bad but I’ve been able to use the same technique in combat for the 10 hours I’ve played so far and nothing has really forced me to adapt to a different playstyle.

Yeah I play on PC and it runs fine for me maxed out with RT but I have a beefy PC.

It’s a really weird mixture of a lot of games so I can kinda understand why people aren’t into it. I’d say the biggest influence on this game is actually Assassin’s Creed. At least in the way the cities and the world is built. And there are NPCs everywhere, which goes a long way into making this game feel alive.

When you’re out in the open riding a long distance to your next objective you’ll see people walking around, maybe a wandering merchant, a cat or a dog to pet, or something else. This makes the riding feel way better than in Elden Ring even tho mechanically they’re practically identical. But in Elden Ring most of your encounters are gonna be combat based or static NPCs. And I really love that vibe in Rōnin.

Also the Yokohama pleasure district is 10/10 gorgeous.

Currently into Rise Of The Rōnin and omg it’s soo good. The whole atmosphere is so enjoyable to just be in. The combat isn’t anything to write home about but as a whole package it’s better than the sum of its parts. I will never not feel like a badass seamlessly transitioning from flying to horseback riding.

Thanks. Hadn’t seen it until now and this post made me wanna look it up n I thought I was going crazy cause I could not find it anywhere

Yeah I’m a hard ground starer too. But def scanning periphery when not looking down. Especially at night when it’s most dangerous but I’ve always avoided going outside at night as much as possible.

1. They said they were never gonna paywall parts of the map. 2. It’s not DLC. It’s a 24 hour lease. 3. The game is early access and all early access games paywalling features get slammed. Most do it thru DLC but I guess EA found a way to make more money than selling a one time purchase.

Bond villain vibes

When the shit the actor went thru in their life is more interesting than the movie

I’m laughing my ass off rn because I’m imagining this process happening today like imagine giving birth to your daughter the normal way and she gives birth by laying eggs

hource so good they made a second one but big hource lobby keepin it from the public RELEASE THE HOURCE FILES (hource code)

NOBODY woulda thunk we be doing this shit 6 years later so if it’s unmarked this is from the optimistic past where we thought this shit would blow over so no need to indicate the year

Fun fact, if I didn’t just jinx it, Mel Brooks will celebrate his 100th birthday this year.

Some games need TPM2 and secure boot to ensure you don’t load cheats at boot time. It’s very invasive and doesn’t even protect games for more than a few days (Battlefield 6 cheats bypassed it during the beta phase)

I had that recently. Tummy ache did not want to go away. Next day I was in emergency surgery (hernia).

Don’t do it. I have an orphaned FB account too that I can’t log in to because they want video verification. So I just set the password to a keyboard smash and left it as is.
It’s kinda comforting to know that even if you had my email and pw you still couldn’t use my acc.
So it’s just stale data rotting on their servers that they can’t link to anything. And giving them more info just to delete my acc knowing they prolly aren’t gonna delete the verification data doesn’t make sense imo.

Wieso beharrt man darauf, Ausweise Kinder/Jugendlicher gezielt zu sammeln? Nachdem bei Discord die Verbindung mit Palantir/Peter Thiel rauskam, und die ganze Epstein Sache, glaube ich echt so langsam die wollen ihre zukünftigen Opfer nur noch einfacher finden.
Ich finde ja auch, Social Media ist nix für junge Menschen, aber lass das doch bitte Sache der Eltern sein. Kein Grund, direkt auf „guilty until proven innocent“ umzuschalten.

Cloud based password managers are a scam imo. They get total control of your data AND dictate how you can access it (paywalls, ads etc) meanwhile you get dick. On top of that the headline kinda made it sound like real password managers (like keepass) could have been compromised too.

Doesn’t surprise me that cloud based ones are vulnerable. And when they get breached they just write a oopsie apology letter and continue going about their business.

Too efficient. Why not rage bait AND raise your neighborhoods energy prices at the same time?

Haven’t gotten far into it but the max0r viddy made me go back to Pirate Yakuza
