Re: 2020 elections superthread

Good thread Brin, you hit on almost every prediction.

I really considered Bloomberg the only real threat to Trump so now that he's out it could get ugly.

Re: president cheato shitshow thread

It's gotta be nuts in that family where he husband has always been 100% anti Trump and she has supported him, or at least feigned like it for a couple years.

Re: brinstar's dark souls idiot journey

So I've finished Anor Londo and Catacombs. One shot killed Ornstein and Smough...was surprised how easy it was just focused on the fat one first and dealt with other one with Solare distracting him.

Died alot in catacombs falling through graves and running into that titanite demon only when you ...

I beat Sif and am currently slogging my way through Sen's

The warrior guy at firelink is gone as is my sorcerer vendor there, and the big snake guy popped out of the water but at least he's friendly and converts green titanite to regular for upgrading my stuffs.

Died two times in Sen's so far and ...

Re: brinstar's dark souls idiot journey

Beat Queleeg and now moved to the darkroot forest past the crest or artorias. Finally beat my first invader there too!

Are the boss souls worth keeping or should you just eat them?

Well i made it to the bottom of blighttown and am now farming slugs for large titanite.

I had my first bitch-out disconnect as well. I had pumped humanity up to 10 to farm and like immediately get invaded. Not really knowing if you lose all that humanity when you die, I immediately was like aw hell ...

I'm starting blighttown now too. I've probably farmed more than I should have but have a Ugi +9. Level 49 i think. Using Havel's ring as well.

I've been loosely following fighting cowboys walkthroughs but try to only watch an area after I've already trialed and error'd it. One shotted Moonlight ...

Re: brinstar's dark souls idiot journey

My main complaint with this game is how damn dark it is. I feel like it's a bit of a cop out to make areas "harder" by only allowing you to see 5 feet in front of you.

I'm in the depths right now and it's just a garbage mechanic.

Other than that, I'm loving it so far.

Re: Pantheon: Rise of the falle

The problem they have is the window is already closing / closed on this type of game IMO.

All of us would LOVE to have another awesome "original EQ" type game with some modern comforts thrown in, but really who has time to play something like that these days?

That said, I hope it's great. I'd ...

Re: Witcher 3

Heck no! I'm on normal.

These days I don't want a crazy challenge unless I'm willingly getting into it (Soulsbourne games). Especially on games that are super big/long anyway like this one and Skyrim. Just want to play through once, get the story and hang it up.

I'm mildly surprised EQ is actually still running. Also surprised they're still charging 35 bucks for the base expansion? wtf

Re: The Stock Market

Very nice!

I split it up with about 2000 worth of ethereum at 450 each. 2000 worth of litecoin at 180 each, then put the other 6000 into the bitcoin trust investment (GBTC).

So far up on all of them but try not to look at them much since I know it will be pretty large peaks and valleys

Re: The Stock Market

Anyone taken the plunge on cryptocurrency investing? I put in about 10k a few days ago.

Read an article that made some sense, saying just to put in 1000 bucks (if you have it obviously) in about 10 different "coins" under 50 bucks valuation. Even if you hit it big on just one of them you're set.

Re: i can't find a damn NES classic

They're re-releasing this next Summer apparently.

I got so annoyed with the way the first one was handled though, unless they allow pre-orders and just ship you one when they can I can't see getting one.
