Does Elden Ring count?

As a follow-up to DS3 (yeah I’m not counting Sekiro in this), enemies move too quickly, boss movesets a little too erratic and the world way too open for my tastes. I’m a grown-ass person with things to do, I don’t wanna waste the two hours I have to myself each day dicking around and getting dicked-down for exploring some corner of the map, only to find loot that doesn’t apply to my build. It doesn’t respect my time.

I also don’t think I’m alone in thinking that replayability is harmed by making progression more of a slog than other Souls games. I need to grind more enemies (that are spread out, mind you) to level up my VIT stat so I don’t get 1-shot by bosses.

Build variety and boss-runs were definitely improved over other entries, I will admit. If these QoL improvements were made in a Bloodborne follow-up (peak souls imo), it might be the best Souls game made. Maybe I’ve outgrown the franchise tho; the tryhard-edgelord culture it invites is not for me.

Everyone’s laughing now but wait til a Shoot and Cry biopic is released. We’ll never hear the end of it

They’ll find out that mejorando la raza means fuck-all in this country

If family guy was ever funny, it was seasons 1-3 when it lampooned 70s and 80s pop culture, and even THAT is hard to watch since it’s got its moments of reactionary cow shit. Seriously, watch the “halloween” special on hulu. It’s almost comical how unfunny it is.

I’ll provide a heat source, power, and refrigeration

I have to agree. It’s great seeing everyone’s hot takes about movies/tv shows but posts get very little engagement because they’re siloed off to a different community from CTH/main. The old subreddit ( ) had lots of activity on most threads. It’s definitely the biggest thing I still miss from back then

Instead of sending the Cum Extraction Unit, why don’t all IOF fighters just beat off in the barracks before going out? They can even make a game out of it idk

I’ve tried to get into other 4X’s like Europa, Stellaris CK but the learning curve is pretty high admittedly! I’ll give Europa another shot someday.

I actually welcome how each Civ tries to do something different, but the districts in 6 are such a huge addition that I’m a little sad they won’t return in 7 in the same fashion. Nothing lights up my monkey brain like finding a +6 Campus/IZ/Harbor tile

If there’s one thing I worry for 7, it’s that the fanbase for 5 is very vocal online. I enjoyed 5 for what it was at its time but going back now it seems TOO simple with the streamlined culture tree and the overemphasis on building Tall. It’s a 4X game, turtling at 4 cities is no fun!! The less influence the better.

I started with Civ Rev I for the PS3, I appreciate the goofy art style in 6 haha.

I’m just glad to get another Civ game this decade. I just hope it’s as good as Civ 6

Ah but you didn’t mention the ads. The ads fucking load in the comment sections now, in between comments, not just at the top.

Obviously reddit was always shit but each update is engineered to become even more hostile to its userbase. Don’t even get me started on botting.

I feel comfortable letting my bosses know when I can take on a little more as I now trust them with not overloading my plate. But I also feel the anxiety that I should be hauling ass the entire workday like I did back at major warehouse retail.

When you’ve gone above your pain tolerance for docking in orbit and refuse to use MechJeb.

Maybe someday I’ll expand past Minmus…

Watching the Bills-Dolphins game rn and the Miami QB suffers a concussion right on the field. Something like his 4th in two years? I feel immense guilt watching this shit, poor guy’s brain is jello at this point

With great sadness I have to report that Latino immigrants also fell in line with Reagan for granting citizenship to them.

Captain America 1 and 2 are enjoyable imo. I don’t think 2 relies on the viewer doing much homework besides the first movie.

The first is obv a WW2 war movie while the second is a “political thriller” about Nazi stand-ins infiltrating the US govt. It’s the most grounded of the MCU and probably the best of the bunch.

These people want to go back to 2012 Tumblr and nothing fills the void

Nothing like your team losing to ruin your mood lol

And I’m supposed to be studying

I want Maduro to give Musk the Oberyn Martell treatment

Praying for Paraguay to shit on Isr*el

That’ll be $19.17 at the next window, thank you
