I've played a lot of Soulslike games and just difficult games in general in my life. The boss at the end of the memory Lady Butterfly is the absolute most challenging boss fight I've ever done in my life. Probably didn't help that she was the first boss I fought in the game since I immediately went to explore, but damn. Must have taken me 30-40 tries to beat her. There's another boss fight later in the game that is supposed to be difficult for most people. Beat it on the first try either without getting hit, or getting hit only once. Nothing compares to that one boss for me. But also, I didn't beat the game. I made it a little over halfway through it before juggling too many games and dropping all of them eventually. I want to go back through it. Especially since I've been playing Nioh again lately.

But someone please tell me just what the utter hells is America's obsession with the gun? I do not understand this love affair you have with guns.

It's only a certain kind of people with the obsession for guns. A certain kind of people who think Trump is the second coming of Jesus.

I really hate that they didn't release it on Steam day 1. I'm dying waiting to play it. I almost caved and bought the PS5 version at one point.

Heh, a few days ago, I randomly decided to open my 3DS after not playing it in years. Saw that the back was bulging a little. Knew exactly what that meant. Opened it up and took the bloated battery out and ordered a replacement. Actually, I went to steal my gf's battery since she hadn't played hers in even longer lol. But her battery was swollen too even though it didn't make her back bulge. Ordered her a replacement battery too after I confirmed the replacement I got was decent.

PS2 Dynasty Warriors or modern Dynasty Warriors?

I wouldn't care in the slightest.

Pump it up!



My first word was wedge. From that, I thought the spangram would be "stilettos" and then I found it. But it wasn't a related word. Took the S off and it was just a regular theme word. Realized I should have looked for high heels instead and then found it 0.5 seconds later lol.

It's like saying Goku going to Namek is a spoiler. It's not.

Nappa's death to Vegeta is absolutely NOT a major plot point or twist. Ridiculous to get modded for spoilers for that.

MK11 was the first Mortal Kombat game I ever regret buying. MK1 was even worse for me. MKT was my favorite for nostalgia reasons, and MKX is my favorite modern MK. I put so many hours in MKX. I mained Royal Storm Kitana (a character that I gave 0 fucks about before MKX) before she got any buffs and went on a rampage online.

I pullout game worked for years. Until the one time I intentionally didn't pull out. >_> Also, for some reason, baby #2 has been impossible. Think we've been trying for like 2 years now.

The kameo system took me out completely. It was so bugged on launch and never, ever (even in this trailer) looks good or smooth. It's such a distracting and integral element.

MK11 had their best combat, just wish they kept that engine and sped it up a bit. I also hate that they removed 98% of zoners, it's my favorite style. Guess I need to be good at rushdown, aerial combat, or teleport characters.

Yea, I despise the Kameo system. I wish they'd just go back to regular, non-gimmicky fighting. I thought I'd be happy with the variation system gone, but Kameos are even worse. I think MKX is peak MK for me. MK11 was definitely too slow, and I hated the custom variations even more than MKX.

I hate how many guests Mortal Kombat has now. I know why they have guests because they sell, but I hate it. Just breaks the immersion for me.

A good workout



Pretty easy. Didn't care to find the spangram first though.

I actually saw that on FB a day or two ago.

When I think of naked cat, I think of a hairless cat.

I wonder if Steam will look at an accounts history and be like "This account is 100 years old, there's no way the original owner is alive now" and delete it lol

Lol I doubt they have policies like that. If it never would have come up, I doubt anyone would have even looked at stuff like that.

Still waiting for a response on this if anyone knows.

It's in beta. I think the only actual restriction is needing to be in the same country. But it combines the libraries of everyone in the family into one giant actual library. I think a family can have up to 5 or 6 members.

Playing a game from someone's library no longer locks that entire library, only the game itself. So if Person A owns Dragon Quest 11, Person B can play it while Person A can play other games belonging to Person A's library.

And actually, if 2 people own the game, that means 2 copies are available to be played across the family at the same time. It's treated like an actual library with books. Much better system than before where it would lock the entire library.

I wonder how all those slurping over Valve the other day in that Microsoft topic feel now.

Lol I thought this was a joke post, but you are actually serious, aren't you?

Probably could have found the spangram first if I would have looked harder. Part of the spangram was the first thing I saw.

Noodle on this one

I just beat Nioh 1 again on Steam this time. God damn that fight before the true final boss in that one side mission post game is bullshit. The one with the clones of a certain someone. Harder than the damn boss fight at the end lol. I did farm a shit ton of divine gear from the revenants each trip though. But finally, I can try the DLC. I didn't have the DLC on the PS4 version.

Beyond Nashville



Figured the theme out just from the description. Found the rest pretty quickly.

NBA superstar without a doubt. I love playing basketball and even used to joke with my friends in my late 20s that I'm going to get in shape and head for the NBA combine. I'm 33 now though. >_> Worse shape I've been in my life lmao. Plus I'm only 5'9 and had 3 ACL surgeries already.

Sounds delicious!




Got the theme immediately after finding the first word. Didn't take me long at all, although I did get caught up on the right side.

I love Warframe.

Literally the start of Gattaca

Only reason I even know about this movie is my AP Biology teacher played it for the class. I liked it.

Lol I just found a screenshot on my from of 2k16 from 2017. Apparently I've been sending my MyCareer player to the Timberwolves as early as 2017. Didn't realize it's been that long. I took the screenshot though because my player almost posted a quintuple double lmao. Just needed 2 more steals and 3 more blocks.

Got these all pretty quickly. Probably could have found the spangram first if I would have really tried, but margarita stood out to me as soon as I opened the puzzle.

Took me forever to find the first word (mafia) but once I did, I found the rest pretty quickly.

Yall act like the billionaires that rule every other major company arent also evil corner cutting clowns. You just dont know their story because its not their turn to clickbait their every move yet.

Youll run the rotating villain story til the end of time Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk, whatever comes after him and not vote for guys like Bernie just trying to get us off that treadmill.

While this isn't even true, there's also a huge aspect of Elon Musk constantly showing us just how fucking unintelligent he actually is.

Lmao got damn at that Kyle + Tucker pic. Wish it wasn't photoshopped.

I don't want the tech to fail. I'm all for breakthroughs and whatnot. However, I don't trust it because of Elon being behind it. And I don't trust it because of the trials I've heard on the monkeys. Things like monkeys were in so much agony that they started biting their fingers off or something.

I was originally going to say that I really doubt people actually want the tech to fail, just that they just don't trust it to succeed because of Elon. However, a few posts in this topic have proven me wrong. I do think it's weird to want to fail. And to want it to fail because you don't trust tech like that in general makes no sense. There's a big difference between not trusting that it is safe and actively wanting it to fail/not be safe.

You did not disinfect all the things you touch.

Not that this is a perfect method, but I actually keep hand sanitizer in my door and use it every time I get in my car.

I actually didn't know Wite-Out was the brand name. >_> Especially since I haven't even heard the term in over a decade probably lmao.

Reese's pieces. I don't really like non-chocolate candy too much.

Probably 200 lightning dodges. I didn't have too much trouble as a kid, but I don't even think I have the patience to try anymore. Getting lower than 0:00:0 in the Chocobo race was always pretty easy for me though. I remember getting really frustrated with Kimahri's forest thing with the butterflies as a kid, but doing it eventually. I tried on Steam just a couple years ago and did it on the first try with ease. I'm not sure if the Steam/international version is easier or if I had no encounters turned on or something (but pretty sure no encounters are turned on during the minigame anyway).

Wtf kind of response is to blame the victims for being secretly recorded in a fucking bathroom?

I changed career paths and started out as help desk a few years ago then got promoted to Systems Administrator. Before the promotion, I was unsure if I wanted to go this route or developer. Jumped at the promotion though since it meant more money, plus I was able to get from under my help desk supervisor that I wasn't a fan of. I think I used to be somewhat interested in network engineering, but after being in my current role, I for sure think I'd prefer being a developer. Especially since I feel a developer would have a higher chance of working from home.

Words have different meanings for everyone regardless of the original context. It's how you say them and who you say it too as well.

Which is probably why you were asked how do you define it since clearly your definition appears to be different than the actual meaning.

LoveLikeJazz posted...

They said this about the Saints Row reboot, and then the studio went under or something?

They also said this about Mortal Kombat 11, but then that went on to becoming the highest selling Mortal Kombat game ever. Not sure if Mortal Kombat 1 topped it.

Took me a while to find the first word, but once I did, I started finding them pretty easily. Got stuck on the top 2 at the end for a few minutes though.

Didn't they have a mobile game that was turn based? Completely forgot about that.

Edit: Or maybe it's not turn-based, but just an RPG. It's Mortal Kombat Onslaught. But yes, I'd play it. RPGs and fighting games are my two favorite genres (although fighting games are starting to decline for me). Mortal Kombat is my favorite fighting game series although I've been very disappointed with the last 2 entries. I also love turn-based combat.
