I first visited GameFAQS before I even made this account. Looking up guides for N64 games and whatnot. Especially GameCube games.

The whole time Ive also been visiting CE. I dont even remember how or when I first found it.

And honestly I love you guys. The old days were the best and CE has its share of weirdos, me included, but I discovered a lot through CE. Games and music and ideas and whatever else. Sorry if Ive offended or annoyed anyone, especially lately. Ive learned a lot from this place but I think its time for me to close my account and hit the old dusty trail. We all gotta move on sometime.

See you space cowboys.

Your opinion is demonstrably wrong however.
That article is inherently unreliable as it has been deemed that she did not experience abuse, and was an abuser instead.
Let that sink in.

It was deemed one way in the US and another in a UK court. I dont think a differing view than a non-sequestered jury, in which one of the members spouses was texting them about how Herd was a total psycho makes it INHERENTLY unreliable. Even if you ultimately disagree!

Heard isn't an abuser. Period. Full stop.
That is the consensus of the mental health professional, the jury, various judges, and 80%+ of the witnesses called.

A victim of abuse that lashes out against their abuser is not committing abuse.

Id agree with that - thats valid.

meestermj posted...


You are trying so hard to defend Amber Heard in some bid to feel like you "lieten" and "support women" that you are entirely demeaning and minimalizing an actual victim to hold up the abuser.
Your actions are harmful and you need to self reflect.

again, not expecting to convince anyone here but this is not why. Ambers original article was something like I spoke up against domestic violence and was punished for it and now its happened to her again. That I feel is whats harmful to other victims of abuse. Thats just my opinion! Please dont crucify me.

You should probably reevaluate that. He seems to be a lot like the Facebook fool I mentioned, believing things for the sake of believing them, without actually considering evidence and thinking for himself.

but why do you say that when he does such a deep dive into the evidence? If anything his non-popular view is evidence that he IS at least thinking for himself.

Holy shit, you chose a biased moronic article to try to back yourself up. Have you watched the trial at all, or read much of anything except trash articles like that?

You remind me of someone on my Facebook who was trashing Johnny Depp and supporting Amber simply because of Me too, Believe all Women, etc. This is a uber liberal who gets offended for the sake of others simply for the sake of being offended, it's very cringe. He considers himself well read too.

Amber well deserves the hate she's getting, she's a literal sociopathic snake who takes no responsibility and admits to no faults, instead choosing to direct blame to everyone but herself.

she can be all that and also a victim of abuse.

From the inception of his legal attack on his ex-wife, Depp has claimed that she engaged in a calculated, pre-meditated, years-long project to destroy his life an elaborate hoax to generate positive publicity for Ms. Heard and advance her career.

Depps account of events doesnt hold up to the slightest scrutiny. Heards first text messages to friends and family alleging abuse were from 2013 two years before she even married Depp, much less divorced him. For his narrative to align with the available evidence, Heard would have had to convince numerous friends, ex-friends, professional contacts and neighbors to lie numerous times, under oath, for years all while leaving no trace of her diabolical plan in the form of texts or e-mails.

Correct. They deemed that the accounts of abuse were "probably true" as Depp wasn't successful in debunking them.

Most of her evidence didn't hold up under scrutiny. Despite this, she said she had mountains of much more damning evidence, which raised the question of why she hadn't included any of that as well. It made her look like she was grasping at air.

Added with her being caught lying multiple times, it made it just all the more likely that a lot of her photographic evidence was indeed staged.

a lot of that scrutiny seemed bad though? A lot of pseudoscience about reading her reactions and facial cues and saying that because this one type of makeup wasnt on the market yet she cant possibly have used a different kind or whatever. This from a jury that wasnt even sequestered.

When it came time to actually figure out if abuse had been committed in the recent trial, basically none of Amber's evidence was deemed credible, due to her tampering with photos and multiple witnesses breaking apart her accounts of events. And it was decreed that the newspaper article was indeed published with the intent of defaming him.

The UK case was about a newspaper being able to run their articles that called Depp a wife-beater, not about proving he was one or that it was done with the intent of defamation.

It basically ended with them going, "Yeah, the newspaper was in their right to publish these things because it sounded likely enough and they weren't just making shit up to attack Johnny," and called it a day.

but to do that they have to prove what they published was substantially true?

Defamation is harder to prove in the American court system. The ruling was that the Washington Post article about Depp was defamatory.

but was the UK judge talking about defamation or that domestic abuse occurred?

Defamation may be harder to prove but wasnt he saying that her evidence that she was abused was essentially compelling? Regardless of other findings and decisions.

Yeah the increased agility is such a blessing for bows vs other Souls game.

And I'm with you on the rock throw sorcery. It's insane how useful it is. Enemies that dodge attacks usually dodge too early, when the rocks rise out of the ground. And the range on level-ground is long, but if you fire it downhill it seems to have unlimited range, or at least as long as is practical.

Yeah I need to use Alexander's ashes and the talisman that increases bow damage. With the barrage skill and blocking enemies in with the skeletons with great shield ashes, it's pretty good. For New Game +2 I'm surprised it's as useful as it is, but I do definitely need to whip out the daggers/whip a lot.

Also yeah it was the Stone of Gurranq, which is awesome.

1st time around: Dex with the Bloodhound Fang, and a couple of miracles (incantations or whatever).

2nd: Magic/Incantations with that pointy sword, I can't remember the name, but it does Scarlet Rot damage and I added poison to it as well. I mostly used the boulder throwing incantation and the red claw thing. I only really used 1 sorcery I think.

3rd: I was going to do strength but instead I'm gonna do some kind of thief/assassin. I'm using the dagger that does extra critical damage, a small parry shield, and the fire giant's braid as a whip. Also the black bow, and a pretty tanky spirit ash so I can stand back and just fire off arrows or whatever. I'm also using some cool talismans that I found on the first 2 times around, like one that increases arrow damage and one that makes me more hidden when I'm crouching, pots do more damage etc. The idea is to use more pots and items as well.

One more ending and I have the Platinum trophy too. My first run took me about 75 hours, then 35 for my second doing most of the sidequests I missed (which were a lot) and this time I'm probably gonna just gun it for the end. I have seen all the major secret and optional areas, I think I'm just missing a number of minor dungeons and mines and whatnot.
