OT: Video Game Talk (oh, also the Week before the All-Star Break Pre-Game Talk "archive")

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Holy hell, this Elden Ring game is effin' legit, thanks for the recommendation @The Merchant . I have no clue what 90% of the items I am acquiring do, but defeating an enemy that you struggled with is so satisfying. I can't believe I didn't play a Dark Souls type of game before. I am just exploring the Limgrave and I came across this ultra Superbear that has seriously 99% life-taking moves. I used my Supremely Powerful Jellyfish and wrecked his arse. The only thing that sort of sucks is that I go into these battles as a non-nerd not knowing what could help me, get my arse kicked in, having to google search, and then wrecking it. Takes sort of the fun away, but I rather not waste time on a mini-boss so I can face this dragon thing that flew from the sky.

E: As I was writing this, I just came across a troll cargo Oregon trial-looking wagon that has this huge black-looking coffin. I will ambush this MFer like it was The Patriot. Wish me luck, lads.

I swear, one of these years I am going to buy a game when it comes out and play it while it is still popular.

Until then.... *slinks back into DayZ*

I still think of this tweet daily.

Do you think about it for 3-5 minutes and then stop thinking about it until the next day?

It’s really when the most absurd task is handed to me and I’m like… same, same, but different.
