I feel like this is a pretty good summary of Dark Souls, the series.

It's hilarious that you can kill ancient monstrosities, steal their souls and turn them into legendary weapons, but those legendary weapons are always going to be garbage compared to your stick wrapped in barbed wire that's had a few bits of metal hammered into it (or your really big branch, or your plain old standard-issue longsword).

I should have another go at Irithyll now I've given up on pure melee and have to use a bow for pulling like its a drat MMO.

Too busy finishing RE 6 on professional with Sylphid at the moment though.

In other news High School Fleet seems pretty good? It's giving me Bodacious Space Pirates vibes with characters actually being competent instead of ditzes and a more serious storyline than you'd expect. The hoops the story has to jump through to make girls going to school on a boat seem like a reasonable thing are pretty lolworthy though.

Update: The lady ghost was actually 5 identical sisters, who were gaslighting him so they could take his sword, which they needed to steal back their father's golden pinball machine.

I'm gonna watch this at work when I'm not dark soulsing

Question though: Is it worth it in the early game to infuse a weapon with a raw gem? It looks like it gets rid of scaling for a big base damage boost, but is there a break even point where that hurts you?

It's probably only worth it until you get the coal that lets you infuse with whatever damage stat you're mainly putting points in to, which was pretty early for me. It's probably more useful if you're going for a magic build or something.

Cool, I'll just use my fire gem then

Halberd feels way better than spear btw, I'm pretty sure it's what I was rolling with in 1 now that I think about it

It's pretty useful if you're going for a faith build from the start. Raw infuse a straight sword, buy the dark weapon miracle if you're real nasty and go nuts.

Blessed weapons suck, the lightning coal is in a late game area and you can only get two lightning gems until a super late game option area, and you have to give up a cool hat for one of them!

Also, since I'm not watching much this season and have liked the eps of Cutey Honey I've watched so far, I might just go all out and watch a bunch of 70s anime. Could be a fun ride.

By original show you mean the 90's one right? First season Crystal is bad.

I wanna say that it turned out one of the honorifics the English voices used was different from the Japanese voices? (In general, not just that game) That makes it even weirder
