That’s another way to go about it. :)

Don't forget your Purifying Crystal Tear appetizer before dinner.

I keep reading the first text bubble in Hank Hill's voice. Maybe it's the "marihuana", I'll tell you hwhat.

You’re welcome, enjoy!

Thanks! Happy cake day! 🍰🎉

Getting back to your original post...Miyazaki has it bad for poison areas. I feel your pain.

Dark Souls Remastered was the first souls game I’ve played. The online talk of difficulty put me off from trying for a while. Then I was gifted DS 1 Remastered and gave it a shot.

I fell in love with the world design and the supporting characters. The way most areas connect was unexpected and fun to discover. Difficulty is high for a game of this era. I started playing video games in the Atari 2600/NES days so having little health and few or no checkpoints isn’t foreign to me. Still DS was a strong reminder to being a more thoughtful player. To better choose when and how to attack or defend. Maybe sneak or just flat out run by and hope at times.

I’m not saying that playing older games made things easier or better, just that I wasn’t put off by dying a lot and some of the long run backs.

Then I jumped to DS 3 as I didn’t care for the gameplay mechanics made in DS 2. I’ll give it a chance someday. DS 3 didn’t have the same magic as the first but technical gameplay (movement, fighting, jumping) were all improved.

After that on to Elden Ring. Wow! By the time I got to the base game the DLC had been out for several months. My method was to complete the main game in its entirety before starting DLC. The open world and exploration is really great. I took my time and thoroughly enjoyed playing.

When it was time for Shadow of the Erdtree I thought I’d be plenty leveled and ready. I was wrong. My character was around level 140 (possibly higher) going into the DLC and I was getting handled like a new player. The story, not as good as the main game. Still, something new, interesting and connected to a part of history in the base game. I do wish the map had more points of interest. DLC map size is plenty large but too many big empty spaces.

Old news for many but to anyone struggling with the DLC be sure to find those Scadutree fragments and spirit ashes. Or don’t and get good I guess.

I may have strayed a bit off topic and made a longer post than intended. :)

The Amateur (2025)

A solid action/thriller but nothing groundbreaking. Rami Malik made this movie for me. Scoring is a 67 but I’d give it closer to 75.

Profits over prune juice? Prune juice over profit? The world may never know…

Happy cake day Demigodrick! 🍰🎉

Happy birthday Lemmy.zip! 🎂🎉🥳

I’m new to this instance but after Reddit I spent a few months on Kbin, then just shy of two years on Lemm.ee.

The Fediverse has come a long way thanks to a lot of time and hard work by the admins, mods and anyone else helping along the way.

Congratulations, and here’s to many more years!

Hello Sean and welcome aboard!

Yes, some episodes can really bring on the emotions.

I have the DVD version with an option for no laugh track. I grew up with it being present so I can tune it out but this show is much better without the canned laughter.
