I'd really like to see them add alt formats for each season. It would add a lot more incentive to keep playing, plus gives people a reason to use the Legacy Packs.

I find the menu system to be overwhelming. Just trying to keep track of all the shit you pick up and how to equip it (or use it) and trying to make sense of the stats. It's a lot!

Yeah that's a problem with the Souls games in general. You either gotta do research on how it all works or just take the time to experiment, but with most things costing resources I usually just resort to using the Internet

For anyone that's stuck on Margit, there's an item you can find that will hold him down for a bit.

You have to go to the Murkwater Cave I think. And fight Patches, then give the item he drops to the twins at the Table of Lost Grace and you can then buy it from them.

Raya Lucaria - Not only do we get an awesome doggo boss fight, but the actual boss of the area starts off very similar to Deacons of the Deep, then it turns into a real fight on a lake with a full moon. Definitely reminiscent of the Rom fight. Really great stuff here.

It sounds like this avoids the BotW problem of having incredible game design but barebones content though.

Honestly if I had a problem it's almost that there's too much content. I know it's a weird nitpick, but there is so much to do it can pretty overwhelming. So far I've put in almost 18 hours and have barely even scratched the surface of the game.

Although I'm also generally not too into open world games, so it really could just be my issue with the genre and not so much the game itself.

If anyone finds anything out of the way that's good for FTH/STR I'd appreciate the tip!

There's a turtle shell shield in the Weeping Pennisula. It's on top of a tower you have to use a wind gust and Torrent to get it.

It comes with a War of Art that strengthens it to a point where not only does it prevent most forms of damage, but it staggers a lot of enemies when they hit it.

The Third Man - 1949
Starring Joseph Cotten, Alida Valli, Orson Welles

I really wish I enjoyed this one more. I've always loved the noir style and want to watch more of them, but after this I just don't know if these older ones are for me! I'll start with the positives though, because there were quite a few things I liked.

First and foremost I really enjoyed the setting. A post war Vienna with a variety of people all speaking different languages definitely adds to the tension and makes not only the protagonist feel unwelcome, but the viewer too. The night scenes added to this feel even more, the empty, dimly lit streets mixed with the clever use of shadows was really fun. I also really enjoyed the entirety of the third act. Orson Welles as Harry Lime is actually fantastic, he just carries this smug confidence that almost makes me want to root for him. The entirety of the Ferris Wheel scene is just great and we get a top tier villain speech. The ending was also top notch, sure killing kids with watered down penicillin is evil, but so is trying to bang your childhood friend's girlfriend after you sold him out and killed him. So yeah Holly got was coming to him too.

Speaking of which, Holly sucks. Yeah I think he's supposed to, but to me there just isn't anything endearing about him. I enjoy a flawed protagonist and all, but you still need that one thing to keep us invested in him and it just wasn't there for me. My other main issue was the mystery just wasn't engaging enough. Maybe I'm just spoiled by things like Ace Attorney or Knives Out. I'm used convoluted murders and absurdly unique characters, but here it's just hearing a bunch of people give the same account until someone mentions The Third Man, (ooooooohhhhh). So its admittedly kinda hard just watching that happen for an hour and a half with a dull protagonist. Honestly though it doesn't even matter because Harry just reveals himself shortly afterwards anyway. So uh yeah there really wasn't much that surprised me or left me thinking. It just kind of all happened. Oh yeah and what was up with that score? It was definitely unique that's for sure, but it was completely distracting and I really wonder what their intention was with that.

Maybe I'll watch it again someday when I'm more educated on film techniques or something, but at this current moment I just thought it was alright. Some things were cool, but it just didn't hook me like I hoped it would.

3/5

How's the FP management feel compared to DS3? In DS3 I felt like the FP system was scare enough that it wasn't worth engaging with.

I haven't played with it too much yet since it took me a little bit to get the first Ashes of War, but you do get a Flask for refilling them. It looks like there's also other uses for FP. I got a blessing that uses it to boost your Poise

EDIT: I did some playing around with Storm Stomp, it doesn't take up much FP at all will stun enemies. So I could see it being pretty handy.

So I've been playing for about an hour so far and reached the first boss. It's been a pretty fun time, I wouldn't compare it to BotW though. It obviously has the difficulty of a Souls game and you can tell from the start the game has a huge variety of combat options. Most of the encounters I've had so far have felt pretty varied.

If you guys have any questions I can do my best to answer them

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre - 1948
Starring - Humphrey Bogart, Walter Huston and Tim Holt

I don't often have fun watching some of these older films. I can usually appreciate them well enough, but I often find myself needing to take a break halfway through.

Thankfully, Sierra Madre was a huge exception to this rule. It was a pretty easy watch and was genuinely fun! The biggest reason for this is the performances. Humphrey Bogart, whom I didn't think much of after Casablanca, really impressed me here. You can tell pretty early on that he's going to be a problem on this expedition and his gradual descent into paranoia is both hilarious and terrifying. Sorry for doubting you Humphrey! Walter Huston as the old prospector has to be my favorite though, he creates the perfect balance between goofy and endearing. He's definitely the glue that holds both the characters and the film together.

Even putting aside the preformances, I found the entire plot engaging. There's a surprisingly wide variety of set pieces and side plots, all of which hold actual significance to the movie as a whole. The story of Mr. Cody was a particularly interesting detour that really left me thinking.

Finally, I want to talk about the ending as I'm kinda torn on how it was handled. I really like the idea that sometimes life is gonna screw you over and you've just gotta take your lumps and move forward. That said, if I spent 10 months slaving away on a mountain I certainly wouldn't look around for 5 minutes then start laughing about how it's gone. Maybe it's just the Dobbs in me, but even a single bag of that gold is worth a lot of money.

Either way I had a great time watching it and I'm really happy this little project is off to a great start!

4.5/5

COMING SOON: The Third Man

Hey y'all. Recently I've been wanting to pick up writing and watching more movies. So what better way to motivate me than making a topic out of it?

For the sake of trying to complete this, I'll be starting in 1948. I know it's a weird year to start with, but I did my best to choose movies I'm already interested in and I couldn't find enough prior to '48 to justify going further back. However if this topic is fun enough, I may consider doing a sequel where I go further back (maybe with user nominated movies?)

Anyway, the first movie I've chosen is...

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre - 1948

The biggest problem with Imperial Order and Skill Drain is they counter each others weaknesses. Then on top of that Master Duel doesn't have siding, so if you want to counter Eldlich then you need to run specific cards that are trash against most other Meta decks.

Link 4 monsters can only be treated as 1 Material or 4 Materials
Accesscode (like all link 2+ monsters) requires at least 2 materials and 4+1 is too much.

Ohhhh okay. I definitely remembered using Shuraig for that effect before, but I must've had three other monsters on the field when I did it. Well at least it's nice to know I didn't misplay there, because there really wasn't much else I could do there.

So I'm kinda confused. I was playing against @ ignister and they brought out their boss monster with 6000 attack and it's immune to card effects. So I knew I needed Accesscode and needed it to use a Link 4.

So I had Shuraig (L4) and Kerass on the field, but it wouldn't let me summon Accesscode. I know after you use Kerass' Effect it limits the materials you can use for a Link summon, but both him and Shuraig qualify. Is there something I'm missing with Link summoning?

She's an influencer who is selling selfies of herself. Doesn't sound too much different than any other influencer, aside from that she's doing selfie commissions. Are you guys saying that those influencers are putting their lives at risk, too? None of it is explicit content and it seems like they're making it clear what's okay and what isn't, and it's unlikely that there will be another stalker that goes THAT far after what happened to the first one. Unless I missed something.

It's not what the daughter's doing that's the issue. The dad thinks he can handle everything with a gun. What happens when his daughter goes out to a party and one of the stalkers follows her there?

I understand that stalkers are always going to be a problem and its certainly not the victims fault. But that incident put their entire family at risk. Imagine if one of them actually got hurt, he'd be singing a much different tune. It's just incredibly irresponsible.

So I tried to do something pretty scummy today.

I figured since the game punishes you for surrendering and people love playing their awful floodgates decks. I thought I'd try letting the game time out to see if it would count as a surrender or not and to piss off my opponent.

So I got up grabbed a drink and came back, but I somehow auto surrendered. There was like 300 seconds left when I got up.

I know I deserved it either way, but now I'm curious. If the game doesn't detect any moves after X amount of time does it auto surrender early? I also saw a rumor that hackers can force a surrender on their opponent. But haven't bothered to look at any evidence for it.
