Rom was almost my breaking point. Those meteorites always. fucking. got me. I still not sure how I succeeded. Well, I had summoned a friend, so that helped, but even then, I was dying all the time.

“Nowadays, this is the only kind of game that makes me feel anything.”

Agreed.

Why all the hate on Mo'Nique? I know she recently did an interview where she said her career has been derailed because she was perceived as difficult, so has it been deemed her view is not correct? I was confused by that scene.

That scene made me laugh in an uncomfortable, what's-going-on-way.

I agree, but I do enjoy any scenes that Deon Cole is in. He's the Winston of this show.

Both the show and your comments are extraordiCaroly amusing.
6 years of community college. And a movie!

That's an intriguing idea - that Carol was prodding him to action, so his punishment/death would be justified. I thought it was just the writers giving us another "Carol is badass" scene, which she is, and which I enjoy. But thinking there might be an actual motive behind it makes it even better.

Yup, as long as you keep glowing when you hit as they collapse, you get some blood. It's not a long window, but every drop helps!

It was so hard to get used to the combat. I really had to fight my instincts, and instead of backing off once I got hit, to stay up in their faces & spamming R1 to regain health back. But reserve just enough stamina to roll before they can attack again. Also, you can keep hitting their dying bodies to keep getting…

Yep, I was told by a friend, who was told by a friend, and so on and so on…

I know - nothing in this game is straight-forward, but I love it!

re:artwork around impressionists: Did you see Abyss Odyssey? I've not purchased or played it, and it's not based on the Impressionists, but Art Nouveau, which, now that I'm typing this message, I realize isn't what you're looking for at all. But I'll finish my comment, because I think the game looks beautiful.

Be lucky, LOL!

Oh my god, Old Yharnam. I just beat the boss last night, and he wasn't that bad (Souls-speaking), but getting TO it, or even just opening up the shortcuts - it took me FOREVER. That damn gunman. I was on the verge of rage-quitting. Oh, From Software, you know where my buttons are and just how to push them!

Wow, I think Bloodborne is brutally hard, but I'm really enjoying it.

I think I might actually watch this. You know, on Netflix or whatever.

Please do! Believe me, I completely understand about social anxiety. We won't even have to voice chat unless you want to.

Ugh, I completely agree with you about the obtuseness of reinforcing vs. ascending of weapons.

Did you like Valiant Hearts? I went in not expecting much, but thought it was really well done. I was so afraid.. some.. thing.. would.. occur.. I don't know how to tag spoilers, so I guess I should just stop.
