Sword and shield is nooby

You must be thinking of longsword, which 20% of the playerbase uses. SnS is one of the least popular weapons in the game.

last time I checked the in-game guy who tells you it was above 50%

now i am fighting the Anjanath. Figured I'd try out the bow.

This fucking boss keeps killing me in one hit. MHW does an absolutely horrible job at prepping you for this fight because everything until now has been stupidly easy and now i have to waste time sitting online googling how mechanics work. can't SOS either because the online servers for this game are trash.

ugh

The game ramps up in difficulty as you progress, as it should. You can dampen the difficulty curve by using the mechanics the game has taught you such as improving your armor or using some consumables that improve your stats.

Starting with anjanath, running up to monster and hitting them randomly until they stop you, using a potion, and repeating the process will no longer work. You will have to learn the fight and adapt accordingly. For some people, this is the core of the game and what makes it fun. For others, it will be what turns them off from the game because they can't faceroll anymore because it's too hard for them.

Also, using MP as a crutch will be a detriment to the experience. If you can't beat a monster then try again until you can. If you avoid all difficult encounters through online you will never feel accomplished.

I'm a hair short of being a rabid irrational nintendo fanboy but their online play is fucking terrible in every sense. I partly wonder if that's because they don't want to be branded for more "serious" gamers and lose their casual status, but that could just be the fanboy in me talking. For whatever reason their online platform still royally sucks.

They're very hesitant to implement systems where free social interactions can happen because of their family oriented philosophy. This becomes very clear when you look at how much they control player communication in their games. They want to be able to control everything that happens in their games/consoles and by attempting it they inevitably gimp the whole experience.

They basically don't want kids to go online on their games and then hear and see profanity everywhere, get insulted, etc, because it goes against their policies.

That's my takeaway based on their statements on the matter, anyway.

I agree with the TC, that sounds like a pain.

The bottom line is that visiting her family is an activity she wants to do but that the TC doesn't. It's completely normal for these things to come up in a relationship but if this is a weekly event then it's bullshit unless she is also doing some 5 hour activity she doesn't want to do for the TC on a weekly basis. Otherwise it's a very lopsided deal.

That being said, since it's "visiting family" she probably won't concede that it's something only she enjoys and that she's being selfish, which makes it a pain to negotiate.

They'll be back, hopefully.

DBZ abridged is wildly popular and they've been leveraging this for years, pumping out tons of other (very mediocre to downright terrible) content in the same channel to take advantage of their subscriber count. Abridged episodes make sup less than 10% of their uploaded videos.

It started out releasing over 1 episode per month and recently they've been averaging 3-4 episodes a YEAR! For reference, Cell achieved his perfect form in abridged in december of fucking 2015, it's insane how slow paced it is. It's an abridged series with a longer run than the original.

Once they realize that losing DBZ abridged will also lose most of their relevancy, they'll come back.

I think speed limits are too slow. It's honestly a shame we have to consider the lowest tier of drivers' inability to operate a vehicle.

Just the way it is, the law has to be the same for everyone for the sake of fairness and you have to take into account society's lowest denominator.

Speed limits make no sense from a logical standpoint because there are so many factors at play. Quality of the road, driver experience, driver age, quality of the car, just to name a few.

That's just patently untrue. Unless you don't need to be diagnosed to be given anti-depressants, but if that's the case I think we've got a real case of it's a problem with the healthcare industry not treating mental health properly at play.

13% of americans take anti-depressants and the majority don't commit mass murder. If that's all you're going by to attempt and diagnose what makes someone a mass shooter then that's a really poor definition.


30% of Americans own guns and the majority don't commit mass murder. A gun doesn't magically "make" someone a mass shooter; their mental state does. Why are we laughing off actually looking into if medication that drastically change our brain chemicals has a role here?

Because people on anti-depressants can't commit mass shootings without guns. FFS is it a massive coincidence they happen in the US where guns are easily available?

You'd think deranged people in other countries would find and buy illegal weapons and commit mass shootings everywhere but you simply don't see it.

Is the argument that the average american is SEVERELY more mentally unstable and that's the cause for so many shootings?

Quick question

Do you take anti-depressants?

Because you seem to really be upset that anyone would even dare to accuse anti-depressant use having a hand in these tragedies.

Probably the same way that the majority of gun owners who don't go on spree killings don't really like everyone acting like it's the guns fault or something.

Nope.

You're right though and if you notice I never suggested a ban on guns ITT. Responsible gun owners are fine in my book. All I said was that regular civilians shouldn't have access to some types of guns and you guys lost your shit immediately.
