    The first game was pretty good, the second one was genuinely great. The rest were all trash.

    People News Chris Avellone wins settlement after lawsuit over sexual assault accusations

    Well it's good that he gets his pseudo-apology and (theoretical) pay-day, but there's really no winners in this situation. His career is still fucked, and actual victims are less likely to be believed. A proper shit-show all around.

    Community RPG Codex 2022 GOTY - VOTE NOW!

    I feel like their needs to be some kind of pre-filtering done on this list. Too much random shovelware that obviously doesn't belong in such a contest.

    From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

    Because I am trying to deceitfully push him away from yet another Bleed build. :lol:

    You're at a good place to do Stormveil and the associated bosses. As has been said you'll want to end up with a minimum of 40 vigor. 60 is where it starts giving diminishing returns, so somewhere in that range is best for endgame. You'll probably benefit more in the immediate term from pumping...

    From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

    I actually meant the opposite, that those things are easier/harder on an INT build compared to STR/FAI so yes I agree with you. I had a much easier time on Alecto on literally any build other than a pure sorc where I mostly just won by luck.

    From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

    Yeah, it's certainly not easy mode. It's more like it wildly fluctuates between easy mode and insane difficulty mode. FWIW when running an INT build I only really used the 12 faith for the lake of rot, and otherwise ran a pretty much pure sorc, and never really found anything much more...

    I mean, with 12 faith many of those complaints are removed. Royal Revenants are easy for an int build if you don't suck (yes, even the ones in the Haligtree). Gargoyles are melted by Glintstone Spiral. You can easily pick up some fire sorceries, but even without them the hands aren't that bad...

    Incline Official unofficial RPGCODEX 2021 GOTY thread. PARTICIPATE NOW! HOOKERS! BLACKJACK! VOTING!

    My vote for 2021 is: no. Nothing released was good enough to be given an award.

    Return To Monkey Island - MI2 sequel from Ron Gilbert

    I think the main takeaway from the ending is that Ron Gilbert is incapable of writing an ending that isn't shoved so far up its own ass it can see the sun. Aside from that though I don't really see much justification for the hate the game is getting here. The art style is a bit off-putting at...

    I personally approve of whatever methodology was used to land Terranigma in its rightful place.

    Well, you give up a chance to be king of shit mountain to help a sentient love doll work through her issues with authority.

    It seems more chaotic simp than evil, really. On the evil side of the spectrum I would say are

    They didn't nerf her per se, but they did buff light rolling in a big way which made it easier.

    Return To Monkey Island - MI2 sequel from Ron Gilbert

    Eh, I'm kind of fine with this being stuck 20 years in the past. Not much worthwhile has happened since then anyways.
