Keeping it close to the chest isn't going to make it better or go away. If something is frustrating or stressing you it's best to process it. You don't need to talk to someone about it but at least try and find an understanding of it that gives you closure.

but with bows instead of belts

>>656274 Wow that really is a dress made of belts. What a terrifying thing to behold.
did Neopets have an email server? I think I remember this but it's hard to judge the quality of memories 2002-06
月🤷
i dunno i never used it i did however use the sailormoon.com email server which i was very proud of even though the site closed, the email server was kept up so i had a legacy email there but that mail server closed a few years ago very distressing
Anno
There was probably an @Neopets domain but probably only available to the staff working on the site.
Anno
My eye's getting twitchy again. Hopefully it goes away after a bit of sleep.
man it has to be when im broke as fuck with no paycheck this week, waiting a couple weeks to reactivate my phone at this exact time that i have to get an offer from my phone company saying i get a $25 account credit if i pay today with recurring autopay (and henceforth going forward) and also the day superspeciosa has its first sale in like a year 30% off all the kratom products 50% off cbd products
im gonna get paid and everything is gonna go back to normal prices that i cant afford again life is so cruel

24 hour sale
Anno
Well there will always be future opportunities to save money. It is definitely frustrating when there's a good sale and you can't take advantage of it.
you just spent a bunch on those shoes you needed i cant >>656420 idk i feel like there never has been or will be opportunities to save money if i ever get anything, i feel like the government's allowed to just come and take it between taxes and student loans im so fucked
There was a girl on the train this morning with a phone strap of Sasuke's brother. She was doodling on an app on her phone too. Pretty good, considering she had no stylus and was drawing with her finger.

Everything I wanted at the store was on sale. Sure it was only peanut butter and apple juice but it did also mean I could pick up a half-off pack of pączki and still have change for coffee tomorrow.
>>656444 I would have bought some other things, like spices, flours, food oils, etc
Anno
Well I still live with my folks so the common use stuff is generally covered already. I'm pretty much the only apple juice drinker and I consume a lot of the peanut butter. Plus we were out of both.
>>656448 I don't know if those things were on sale though. I went in for the juice and peanut butter so I had eyes for those. Only picked up the pączki because they were positioned at the entrance to the store with a Very Noticeable half off sticker on the box.
Disney should really throw ea into a bin and just start giving SW to multiple studios instead of just one and especially a company such as EA
Anno
>>656454 alternative at the moment but it's a potential future solution.
Anno
>>656455 Apparently Disney is reviving a Lucasfilms Games department, but the majority of positions are mainly for publicity management or things like brand analysis. And EA has been delivering very good profits on the games they've developed even if their reputation is shit.
But on the other hand Disney has generally understood the best profits are made in conjunction with good publicity (even if that assumption can backfire like with Gunn's firing) so maybe there's hope for the future yet.
They should do something like GW is doing with warhammer/40k and just give it to anyone with a good idea, though maybe not as "shotgun pasta on wall" like they do but restricting it to just one studio is not a good idea in my opinion.
>>656457 Whatever shit EA pulls doesn't harm or cost disney anything since if I understand correctly EA just pays them money for the license and then shares the profits it is 100% win for disney and is not like EA hasn't tried, you can say lot of shit about both battlefronts, but they do and feel like Star Wars games, though are nothing like the previous iteration of the same series. But waht has pissed people more, is how they have shelved and axed projects they poured good amount of money in, like the single player bounty hunter game turned MMo turned NOTHING EA afterall is the company who really loves the "live services" model so, a game that only has single player and not nonstop money making aside from frontal payment + possible expansions, no that isn't how you swim in dollaroos
I think the biggest issue with the live services mentality is that you can't expect it to be an infinite well afterall, the average consumer can maybe do one or two of those, before using too much money or simple time issues afterall, who could actually say play two MMOs at once?
Anno
Those reasons you brought up are totally why I can say they haven't tried. In a series universe rich in history, fantastical worlds and creatures, and spaceships, the best they can offer is a battle arena style game with no narrative or emotional appeal. It's a disgrace to such a high-potential universe.
They could just remake some old games and no one would really complain if they were good or decent enough like Podracer Hell just make a new JEdi Knight style game, people are STILL PLAYING academy with a very large community around it
Either way the new trilogy is concluding soon so unless Lucasfilms has a new blockbuster series idea lined up I imagine they might be looking to pour more resources into other media domains in the near future. I know we're getting a Jango or Bobba Fett television series called The Mandalorian at least.
I still wonder why disney killed Expanded Universe?
Anno
Because Lucas had let it grow too rampantly. Don't get me wrong, it's a really cool idea for letting a vast, complex galaxy grow organically, but there's no authoritative control there. Like look at Marvel Studios. All sorts of directors, producers, or correspondents, but tied to literally everything? Kevin Feige. And if you look at the results there it's hard to fault the philosophy.
>>656469 ofc not as large an IP, but a quite laissez faire emthod has worked well with GW stuff usually when they push something, they fuck it up, which is amusing poor archaon and the armless
Anno
And of course you can go full D&D and go "lol it's a multiverse everything is real"
But really, you rent out the license to companies, get money initially and get money from their profits, if they fuck it up, it iso n them not you >>656473 I mean, they could go and just expand on Disney canon while allowing EU canon to exist separately people who like disney direction could consume that and people who don't like it or like the odl stuff more, would then have their toys nobody really loses there
there is now talk of some Old Republic era show or movie, so wonder what will come out of that.
Anno
That's kind of what they did. All the pre-Disney stuff falls under a Legends category that exists kind of like a pseudo-canon (but not legally if asked).
They should just make some Legends movie maybe adapt the hmm what was that skywalker or solo called some grand grandkid of luke's or leia's during era which had Empire reformed as somewhat democracy living alongside the republic with the empire having its own Imperial Knights order and so on and then new sith arise and FUCK everyone up that is an awesome storyline
I'd really like just Thrawn trilogy to be adapted, but >recasting the main trio yeaaaah
also I would have much preffered ep8 to be some war movie hell they even had Thrawn launched into the Unkown regions in rebels, so they could have actually brought him as the grand admiral of the first order to the scene
the biggest issue with the new trilogy is how it treats the universe and concentrates moreo n just driving the plot, instead of really thinking what is logical and so on >we need chase scene >so fuel runs out for the first time in main movies >why don't they call for more ships or have one ship jump ahead to cut them off and so on or why did han lose millenium falcon for who knows how many decades or if luke didn't want to be found, why did he leave a map
Anno
>>656476 They've already given Thrawn a new book series on top of his appearance in Rebels. So it's unlikely he'll be in anything cinematic, but who knows.
it would have just worked so well empire fled to unknown regions met with whatever thrawn was and they allied somehow snoke enters scene and becomes leader goal unified galaxy to face off BIGGER THREAT but this isn't revealed just alluded finish movie finish skywalker saga and then make movies about the coming of the BIGGER THREAT and then have them be dem yuzhang wong
blam pleased everyone and made the first order make more sense and made the "evil" side not be just evil for the sake of evil, but more like extremists

I wonder how well the keyboard functionality for Sekiro is going to be. I'd be interested it playing it but if it's got lousy keyboard support I'll just wait until I have a controller set up.
>>656489 MonHun World took a bit but the PC controls ended up pretty nice and very customizable.
wonder what the antagonist is going to be they took down the evil scientists so I guess the mind flayer or whatever they called it will come for revenge? >>656488 I don't think any hack'n'slash or similiar has ever been ported to KBM well or even just KB
>>656488 it can work if they allow keyboard users to customise and ADD MORE commands than a controller would have some games, like GTA has done this and it works but others like mass effect, especially 3, didn't andw ell
Anno
The biggest problem with World's PC release is moving your mouse only simulated the effect of pushing the camera stick on a controller. So even if you moved your mouse very fast it was only moving as if you'd pressed the stick in that direction, which means it started slow and accelerated. But they changed that to an authentic mouse response not too long after releaes. Release even.
The announcement poster does have the cast in snowy weather gear, which apparently is from a novel arc? So odds are it'll be original content from that arc. ... Which is probably not the best thing to call an adaptation, hah hah. What I meant was I didn't know for certain if it was a television recap or more adaptation. But it's looking like more adaptation.
the anime btw, covered vol1 and then the water city part from vol 2 I think i have more than one vol on me, but havn't read more than 1 got distracted by other stuff so I just forgot I was reading them
Anno
Yeah, I'm familiar with what the anime covered. Maybe I'll check out the novels at some point but LNs are LNs. They're a little exhausting to read translations of.
if you do start from vol1 it is always fun to see what you miss in the books compared to anime. or just how well did the anime do visual story telling, when you have 5 pages of internal rantings, like in Overlord, but actually something like 30 second scene the overlord does it qutie well btw you do miss some characterisation for the MC, but they do deliver the same feeling
Anno
Oh fuck, now that new Obsidian game in the style of Fallout New Vegas but in space is an Epic-only release on PC. Epic can go off themselves they're a fucking blight on PC gaming.
>>656503 Yup but the 15% cut instead of whatever steam offers is juicy for companies.
Anno
Yeah, savings that only go to the company. You'll pay the same price as a buyer on Steam, Epic, or elsewhere. Though actually a lot of people pay more because part of that cut that Steam takes goes towards them offering pricing in local currencies Or all the other infrastructure services Steam provides.
>>656507 Tencent has a forty percent stake in Epic They claim to be hands off the management and information of Epic but, well, wouldn't be the first corporate lie.
!C0.PerkELE
also I hear some giant chinese company owns good half or nearly half of it, so that does play in their favour financially though I dislike dealing with chinese companies
Also there's an unencrypted file in your PC's Steam folders that contains some random information regarding your account, like games you own, playtime, the categories your games are sorted into, and, possibly most important to this post, the games in your wishlist. Recently it was made public that Epic's launcher has been reading information from that file pulling some unspecified information from it. So theorizing has some people guessing Epic was looking at wishlists to see what games they might bribe producers to steal an exclusivity deal for.
the basic thing with me is, that I don't mind competition, but exclusions are NEVER good with hardware exclusive I can somewhat accept it forexample a ps4 is quite different from xbone and pc and especially nintendo stuff is very different from its competitors and especially if it is an inhouse production, then do as you wish. But the kind of >it is exclusive for X for 1 year/half a year and then is released elsewhere is just shitting it especially if it is a game with online features
Well maybe it'll just be a time-gated exclusive and I'll get to play it eventually. But I'm also kind of pissed with the general practice of game-sniping so maybe I'll just not play it.
!C0.PerkELE
yeah votign with vallets against companies doing it, would be a goodw ay to protest it
!C0.PerkELE
wallets even
!C0.PerkELE
lompakko, hyvät ihmiset tai kukkaro
Anno
Well it's easy to feel it's futile, since Epic has enough saturation to sell the game to a wide audience and plenty of people are still going to buy these timed exclusives on Steam once they release that I can definitely see the publishers feeling like they got their cake and ate it too. So things will continue and all I'll get out of it is a feeling of self-righteousness and a sore feeling of missing out on a game I expected to enjoy.
>>656517 It is as futile as previous boycots DLC, mini-dlc, pay to win dlc, lootboxes even if people hate them in general, enough will still pay for them
>>656520 damn I think if you edit that small sunspot away, this would be damn artsy pic
!C0.PerkELE
as in floor
Anno
>>656520 Yeah, it's probably easy to bypass this whole thing if you do most of your gaming on console. Maybe I should get around to picking up a PS4 so I can sidestep it too. Though I don't really know if that would really solve my moral qualms about it.
Yeah, there's really no recourse. Boycotts for things like this are hardly noticable because they won't see a reduction in profit. They'll just see a number and compare it to projections. And despite a boycott, it will still probably meet projections.
It is curious how there aren't more economical bubbles and crashes, but I guess the big corporations are truly "too big to fail" nowadays, in terms ofa lways getting more money through loans or/and investors and by the fact, that almost every US big corp pays practically 0 taxes
月🤷
are you talking about content developers? bubbles and crashes don't really happen in entertainment and digital content there are instances where bubbles happen within that setting, like early internet and content platforms but that's more about the medium and the service than the actual content it's easier to be too big to fail when you design, publish, and advertise something because the market is tangible i.e. you can do market research to find what's going to work before you do it
instead they just kind of have a slow burn where they've over-relied on research like that until they get products that are so generalized that they're forgettable and the brand presence just loses traction so it's more like the treads wearing down on a tire than a bubble bursting

And then she said she couldn't do anything for it this week because of her "scheduled trip" which she never told me about. I got really frustrated by her bullshit and decided I'm not working this weekend at all.

You guys don't need to worry about me. I've got it under control. There isn't anything I can really do, anyway. If I do any work on it, then it'll make things more complicated.

why would it say delivered if it’s lost in the mail when my jp packages get stuck they say nothing, they dont say “delivered” the only thing close to that was my recent jp package that said delivered to my city when it meant delivered to a hub in a completely different city which is also bullshit but at least is blatantly lying to me
Well, the Amazon update thing updates based on the USPS tracking number. When USPS delivers a package, they mark it as delivered. >>656905 Well, the same way works for UPS. They mark it delivered on their device.
ToN
this is being delivered by ups, which is really the only time i have trouble with this stuff
ToN
then why is it marked delivered when it is not at my house why was kh3 marked delivered when it showed up a week later
I dunno, but if anyone can tell you, it'd be UPS. If their person marked it as delivered when it wasn't, that's a big problem, and they may be able to rectify it for you.
ToN
i would definitely contact them were i not stuck at work
ToN
Imm just mad the thing im looking forward to isnt at home for me
Well, maybe the person who was supposed to deliver it is still on their route. If you look at the UPS tracking information, maybe you can find out. Then, if you can take a break or maybe you do it after work, you can call them and complain. The delivery tracking screen should have your UPS tracking number and you can probably check on the UPS website with that.

if you fall off a cliff accidentally in sekiro it doesn't automatically kill you
it puts you back where you fell from with lower hp also you can swim

Oh I figured you'd just take damage and that's it.
I also heard while combat is really hard in Sekiro dying is a bit more forgiving than in the Souls games.
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
the combat is really hard yeah leagues harder than any souls game the timing is everything but it's really hard to get a hang of because to deflect an attack, you do it when their attack connects with you so if you deflect improperly, you take damage or just block it depending on if you're too fast or too slow
the traversal through the maps is really well done and the stealth is pretty good too
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE

Kirara, the Baseball Mom
and if you play carefully like in souls, you're probably going to die it's like all about exchanging blows and if you aren't willing to run in like a dumbass and attack, the enemies are just going to wittle you down to nothing also the enemy AI is good enough now that enemies will swarm you and coordinate moves

>Play carefully like in souls Hah hah I never learned my lesson. Aggressive attacking is always more fun!

I would // I tried to contact the local UPS store but they don't handle distribution so they said customer service. When I did customer service last, since it's amazon they told me to contact amazon due to their special deal. That's when I managed to get KH3 refunded, but then it showed up 6 days later. I kinda forget about my KH3 I wanted to return once it got here when I get back from work, but when I tried to look up the label to have my aunt print, they said my return was complete even though I can confirm KH3 is still in its package, wrapped, on my entertainment center. I would like to contact amazon to rectify this, but if it shows up again in a few days I'm going to feel like I'm just stealing from amazon and also wasting space on my Ps4 HDD if I get a digital copy instead. It's a really bleh situation.

>>657195 Amazon is definitely not harmed by your not returning the physical copy. Just give it away to someone who might want it or something, or sell it for an extra thirty or forty bucks. The money could even go towards getting some storage expansion for the PS4.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
And I also have no way or knowing when sekiro will actually appear.
true but I don't want to get accused of something I'm not trying to do. If I'm going to get a game for free I'm not going to deceive someone about it.
Anno
You haven't deceived anyone about it. The game is marked as returned on their side. One game in a stock of hundreds of thousands is a drip in the ocean.
>>657201 Who do you think will think you're trying to deceive them? Some employee at Amazon? A statistician at Kadokawa?
Yes. The fact that some employee at amazon could think I'm some petty thief is legitimately putting a bad taste in my mouth.
Anno
No one at Amazon is going to think you're a petty thief. The people that handled the packaging and failed delivery of your game are far from the person who handled the cancellation and marked off the return of your product. The packager thinks the game was sent off and forgot about it afterwards and the person who marked the game as returned didn't even factor you into their action, they just didn't want to have to handle the continued follow-up of dealing with a returned product.
Not to mention Amazon deals with porch pirates all the time, if anything that would be their more plausible assumption, that your product got jacked and you cancelled the order because you never saw it appear. This is by far the simpler and more rational assumption for them to make.
I'll give them their requested 36 hours or so and then probably try the chat again.
Fortunately not everything going through amazon game-wise is saying delivered then isn't. EOX came fine.
I was a little concerned about my recent JP package for some granblue merch. The tracker said delivered in my city when it wasn't, but looking on amazon JP it said it was delivered, but to a different city. That city is actually an international distribution center nearby, so if it had just said 'delivered to distributor' or something instead I would have been happier about that. But it arrived just fine two days later. Plus it's not like a prime package or anything so they have more leeway in when that gets here anyway. I was just concerned about another delivered-but-not-here scenario.
>they took candy, coffe and sugar and that is it is quite a creepy break in report
!C0.PerkELE
man that wouöd be an amusing way to be a thief break in and steal a single item or something maybe do it even so you don't leave an obvious trace reel sneek theef
Damn they are in every city or so it seems too bad this is EU and it will still pass
!C0.PerkELE
or they won't pass it because elections in may but post that, they will do it just do it more sneakily
!C0.PerkELE
something like, inform the public ON THE DAY they vote about it or not inform at all afterall, EU is all about pushing issues untill they get the "right result"

sekiro is soooooo fuckin hard jesus christ
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
I might just buy it on PSN tonight tbqh I was getting owned by a spear boy
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
shinobi hunter killed me a few times but like some of these mini bosses are soooo fucking hard they all have pretty clear telegraphs for their moves but they're so fast and it's so hard to time deflections every time i meet a new type of mook, it without exception completely fucks me up because i don't know its moves and the combat is so punishing
don't even have a monitor that would benefit from beyond 60fps so not an issue to me, but stillc apping framerate to any number is still a weird decision if you ask me.
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
the bosses in this game terrify me ive beaten two bosses and they were both really hard the first one was like only comparable to eldritch placenta in difficulty maybe
>Only comparable to what is generally considered the hardest boss in soulsborne
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
yeah it was incredibly difficult not as hard as placenta but it's definitely in that difficulty gap between placenta and the other bosses well, maybe that's because i didn't understand combat fully? i dunno i think it'll be really hard if i fight it again
this game is really amazing it's definitely the hardest game ive ever played
hurt me more, sekiro make me feel alive
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Now As for "why are you buying it for console" My Ps4 controllers keep D/C-ing because the connectino between a USB and the controller does not take well to moving. And when the controller D/Cs not only do I not get to move but Sekiro on PC was freezing for 20 seconds or so every time it unplugs, and then again on when it plugs back in.
And finally "Why did you buy it on PC" I didn't
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
there was a tip on how to redirect lightning back at my enemies like right before the next boss room and that horrifies me
Anno
>>657235 sekiro is probably the hardest game I've ever played dude not even fucking around Ninja Gaiden Black was more forgiving than this
I have my old credit card still that I need to cancel, and I planned on splitting that limit on my remaining ones. I wasn't expecting them to up my newer card without doing that first.
I hope they get lawhammer on them, but several moblepay companies or companies adding mobilepay to their services, have managed to fuse "short term loans" with the payment function. On paper, it is just "well you can easily get this loan, so why does it matter" but when you can just ACCIDENTALLY and so easily start buying on credit on your phone, compared to applying for a credit card etc Not to mention even the short term loan companies got hit with much harsher restrictions after investigation into their way too loose loan policies. as in they granted their loans awy too easily to people.
But seriously, kids these days have way too many financial ruin baits around them, hope they get told and taught not to fall for them.
I have the good fortune that, while it's painful to do, the only character currently availble in Granblue I desperately want is Nier, who I can get without gacha. The only character in the story that's likely to be added in the future I want is Zwei, and she's currently a bad dude. So I'm probably safe
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
holy shit this boss has like 10+ attacks and he switches up the direction he swings his sword AND he has a fucking dragon piercer
!C0.PerkELE
>>657267 >you open them towards you holy shit that takes some str
!C0.PerkELE
>inb4 one boss fight starts with the boss KICKING the doors on you
but his ass cheeks would be too loud to be a boss?
Anno
I wish I could find people talking about how the keyboard and mouse controls are like for the game. I get it, it's a FromSoftware game, to play it not using a controller is heresy. But the only comfortable controller I have on hand is a PS3 controller with gummy control sticks that are physically unpleasant to touch. ... Which makes it not really a comfortable controller I guess hah hah. So unless I want to figure out a workaround my only option is to play it with the keyboard and mouse.
HOLY SHIT do shelters have a lot of GEAR in them... damn there is like 10k€ worth of stuff stashed in any appartment complex evacuation shelter in gear and tools, atleast judging by listed prices
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
>>657291 no, that came out like yesterday morning. I'm 105/200 still for Nier.
!C0.PerkELE
note to self, if end up in survival situation that didn't involve using evacuation shelters - ie zombie apocalypse - go loot evacuation shelters
dodging in sekiro is basically "if i don't know where im going the enemy cannot possibly predict my movements"
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
>smash announcer voice WOLF.....
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
some random dude in this game was like "hmph. you won't tell me your name? then your name is sekiro now" i don't think it was even a major character
Anno
The writers at FromSoftware have a weird sense of humour at times.
!C0.PerkELE
wonder what sekiro means
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
My favorite shooter protagonist is Halo
!C0.PerkELE
mine is fear
Anno
>>657300 > The shinobi awakens to find that his missing arm has been replaced with a prosthetic by a mysterious sculptor, who dubs him Sekiro, or "the one-armed wolf".
every time i learn this boss' moveset and get him down another 25%, he starts throwing all kinds of new moved and variations of old moves at me it's amazing
Anno
>>657255 he probably just went back in time like Wolf did
>>657312 I wonder what kind of reaction would you get from people RL
!C0.PerkELE
if you shouted that kinda stuff mid fight
!C0.PerkELE
might be amusing in sports atleast
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
shiuld i get a PS4?
Anno
Considering you've got a Switch already, I would say the PS4 is the only other current console worth getting since Microsoft is looking to provide the XBOX library on the Win10 platform anyway. So as far as exclusives go if you've got a PC, a Switch, and a PS4 you're probably covered. But I don't know how much lifespan Sony still has planned for the PS4. It's doing pretty well as a console but consoles that try to compete with cutting-edge hardware seem to have to go through updates a lot more rapidly in recent years.
On the other hand it also has a pretty nice and diverse exclusives game library to pick from already, so even if the console is being retired in the near future, there's games to play on it.
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
ahhh my beloved genichiro that was the best fucking fight ive ever had oh man
holy shit this is like three boss fights non-stop in a row and if you die on one you have to do them all again omg
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
i don't know if i can possibly do this haha
Anno
>>657326 How far do you figure you're into the game?
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
>>657328 im only on the third boss i believe there are like 10 bosses that's what someone told me at least i think there are around 30 minibosses and ive probably killed 8 of them
I bet the 10 bosses is where the game starts, if we take any previous fromgame as an example
Anno
>>657329 And the difficulty scaling is already at this point on the third, hah hah. Sasuga FromSoft.
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
>>657331 this is absolutely the hardest game ive ever played and this fight with the third boss is the most fun ive ever had in a boss fight in a fromsoft gamr usually i get frustrated by the 10th death but this boss has such a fun moveset and he switches it up so often that it's fun every time but yeah the difficulty is ridiculously hard i think the second boss was less difficult than the first, but more fun than the first, who was really hard and frustrating and just felt unfair
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
>>657321 thanks there’s a bunch of existing games that would be jice to have my sole objection is having tocthumbstivk aim for like HZD and RDR
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
i think ps5 is supposed to be 2020 or 2021 but who knows if there will be backwards compatibility
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
>>657333 RDR aims for you when you aim the reticule just automatically goes onto the enemy that was closest to it when you aimed
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
interesting
!C0.PerkELE
>>657335 a common mechanic in almost all rockstar games, tho and disableable too
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
ps4 has spider man, god of war, tons of awesome games
dnno how it works in rdr2, tho, but atleast in gta4 and 5, with little practice you can do very quick chains of headshots when you figure the "jump" timing between targets and time a slight upwards nudge with it
ofc you can play without the "assisted aim" or whatever it is called, but I kinda think rockstar balances their games expecting the player (on consoles atleast) to have it on
!C0.PerkELE
>>657338 and best of all shadow of the colossus HD remake
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
that's definitely one of the games available
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
man im still on this boss it's so hard but i can get through the first two parts without too much trouble now now i just have to learn the third one
Kirara, the Baseball Mom
wow ive been on this boss for two hours
Anno
I know how that goes. There's been games I settle into a long period of being unable to beat a point in and the hours just all blur into each other.
I can feel my performance dropping, though, so I think I'll stop here and come back fresh in the morning.
>>657346 I dunno, I've never had so much fun fighting the same boss over and over. I can really feel how this boss helped me solidify my understanding of the combat and I've gotten a lot better through it, which is fun to see. He's also an amazingly designed boss and honestly, I'd be okay with fighting him forever.
>>657345 Somehow reminds me of Warrior Within on hard >oh hello the game just started here are tutorials >and here is first boss, btw did we go over counters? >uuh no... >well, have fun spending next 30-300 minutes LEARNIGN THEM SCRUB >had fun? >well now after 1 hour of gameplay, you get to fight this boss again, and now she has 3 ways of INSTANT KILLING YOU and then you know how to counter, dodge and not to position yourself so, that you get kicked off a cliff
