Surprising but welcome to see that this update was mostly buffs. I’ve been trying to take down Malenia for the second time using a colossal sword, so this is coming at a good time.

We have high speed internet access in the Triangle, which is where Epic is headquartered. Insomniac also has an office here. It stands to reason that there is also a decent talent pool of game devs in this area.

He just uploaded a sub-7 minute any% run, too. There’s no stopping him.

Beat the game on my first run using Moonveil (as well as a bunch of other fun sorcery stuff). No regrets. It’s a perfect and beautiful weapon.

Yeah, that thing is like a rail gun.

Bears and birds are totally valid, but I would have never thought a giant lobster could be so mean before playing this game. Add those to the list of things I give a wide berth to.

Losing those music channels is such a tragedy. As recently as last month, I was listening to Promethean’s upload of the Spire of Stars boss music. Not only can you not purchase or listen to the official release of that track, but the version put out on the Warmind soundtrack pales in comparison to the version that…

The Moonveil is unnerfed. Praise the Moonveil, a balanced weapon in every regard.

Deleted my bookmark last week and was happy to support the strike. Glad that y’all made it happen!

Should we take bets now on whether Destiny or Elden Ring gets the header image next week?

Good for them. It’s the dream, I swear. My company has moved to at least having no meetings on Friday, which is nice... but it sure would be nicer to just not have to pretend to work at all on those days.

I pick a different word every day because I’m fishing for that 1/6. Guessing the same word every day might get me there, too, but that feels more like waiting than playing.

One of my fav’s, Ticuu’s, is about to be even more lit. Also, on top of Trace Rifles also getting buffed, they realized their heinous mistake in nerfing the guard damage on Ruinous Effigy.

Curious to see if the SMG will have a similar interaction with Necrotic Grip the way Thorn does. I guess the poison AoE is kind of built-in here, so maybe that combo would be redundant.

This is... weird? Mainly because of the proposed lack of exclusivity. Like, that’s a direct counter to Microsoft’s wishy-washy “we’ll honor existing agreements” language when they buy a studio, but it is also the exact opposite of what you’d expect from Sony, right?

Is Nintendo’s ideal version of people engaging with the soundtracks to their games just like... carrying a switch around everywhere with the sound test menu opened on a game like a giant mp3 player? I wish there was any way to actually listen to their music.

Not a bad idea, but I’m sitting at 498/500 and I don’t want to worry about inventory management during those first few weeks of the expansion.

After reading that article about the Root the other day, I got angry all over again about how things work around here. I hate to see you go. Good luck with what comes next.

Glad they didn’t make you turn this into a slideshow.
