I feel you TC. While I love a good parry combat system, this game feels like it took two steps back from what they had going with Nioh to achieve it.

Combat is just... basic? Too basic. I think that is my feeling of it.

I also hated the moral system in the demo and still hate it in the main game. Locking certain spells out until you get to a certain moral level just locks you out of combat options in an all ready very limited combat action game.

It found there was little evidence that biomedical factors related to male puberty such as lung size, bone density and hip-to-knee joint angle predict an unfair advantage. But some evidence that social factors like nutrition, training and access to equipment do.

So transgender females have the advantage cause they received better nutrition and training while a male in the men's program, so they compete better after transitioning? Is that what this is alluding to since men's programs do get better funding in many sports?

So it was found in 2021. I wonder why it took 2 years for the media to cover it. Wonder what changed in the last couple of weeks to finally have this info.

Media could not report on it 2 years ago cause the documents were found last week in the home he purchased in 2021...

Personally, I prefer debit cards. I like to know exactly how much money I have on my bank account.

Ultimately, you need to have enough money anyway, whether payment is made by debit or credit card. For people who have enough money anyway, it really doesn't matter which one to use.

I always tell people to avoid using your debit cards unless you are making an atm withdrawal when needing cash on hand. The reason is credit cards generally have more fraudulent protections than your debit card where it is easier to get your account restored. You also have more days to report a credit card dispute than a debit dispute to where you are protected.

Debit card theft also means a thief is spending cash from your account. That means you have to fight to get your money returned. When a credit card fraud happens, the lender of the credit card account is having to fight to get their money back. You have not lost your money, but only have credit charged against you that is part of the disputed charges.

The base addition was awful.

The royal addition added some more things such as playing as the other bros, but the base game was hard to salvage.

Magic and summons systems were bad.

You will never die as long as you have healing items unless you self limit yourself for challenge.

I found the game tried to merge open world, with action elements and RPG elements. All 3 of them were mediocre.

So many story elements being in sources outside the game was an awful decision to me.

Not really expecting it, but I'd love if they had like, minor voice acting like in BN5: Double Team DS where they'd have the VA say like, 3-5 really basic lines that get said a lot, like when Megaman would jack in or out.

I don't really care much about online play, but that's a cool feature to have. Its definitely a big part of what kept the fandom going so long.

someone actually found it but they played the wrong follow-up move and didn't see they had checkmate

I was still analyzing so many line variants, I did miss the one that defeats Nxd3.

eaglei3 posted...

Overall, I don't think stalling with the white bishop works as the line I see is either: 1) B7 or C6: Nxd3 2) Nb3+ or Nf3+: Kc4. Alternate: 1) B7 or C6: Nxd3 2) Rxd3: exd3.

Looking back, Nxd3 is beaten by e3# with the Pawn. I lost visualization briefly that the black knight when moved there kills the king from moving to d3. After that, 2 spots the black king cannot move to from its own pieces and the other 6 are defended by white attackers so the King is trapped in the mating net. So the stall on B7 or C6 should work with the appropriate response to what black does.

Forgot to mention their black Pawn as well.
If that moves, then Queen will check for mate.
Pretty much any passive move is needed initially with White.
I think.

Stalling the way you mentioned cannot work. Black has Bf3 and Bf5 which both prevent mate in 2 as the bishop can then take the attacking rook from its new location.

Can you tell me how mine fails? I'm not seeing it.

From the brief look at the puzzle I did, the moment you move the queen, you unpinned the black rook. The unpinned rook immediately ends you winning in two moves as the rook can then put your king in check and force you to take the rook.

Havent read the article yet, and wondering how many people commenting even actually have, etc. Goes without saying, the nature of this tragedy is especially bad.

If it is a Russian fired missile/bomb that hit Poland, whether or not they intended for it to strike Poland is irrelevant and the topic title is correct.
