Captain Invictus posted:as also a major coward when it comes to eye stuff, I considered just dealing with it forever because "having your cornea scraped off with a scalpel or lasered off" is not a pleasant proposition, but now that it's over and done with I can say I am happy I had it done even if the last ~10 days sucked because seeing well out of both eyes instead of one is a good thing Not quite eye stuff, but I had a sort of similar feeling when I got nasal surgery. Like before it wasn't bad enough that I didn't think I could live with it, and the surgery and recovery period sucked, but afterward I'm glad I did it. Pain pills definitely helped, and thankfully I did not get addicted. On a games note, today I will undertake the ultimate challenge and do my taxes.

1. Get rich. 2. Make sure one of your businesses gets into trouble. 3. Write it off as a loss so that you never have to pay income taxes again.

Nasgate posted:I missed it a few pages back, but while I understand gacha complaints usually, I dont get it for Fire Emblem. The heroes you get from the story mode cover the 3 weapon types as well as an archer. And those story heroes have some kick rear end abilities. The rpg progression really prevents the gacha from being a necessity, especially if you invest the tonnes of currency they give you into increasing your exp gain. Targeting whales is bad you idiot

I only have a W2 and 1099-G to worry about typically, so turbotax works fine. gently caress if I'm gonna do it by hand from the basic forms.

LawfulWaffle posted:Oh no, this game very few people have played is so much harder than the game everyone has had years to practice! It'll take like a week before someone uploads a series of SL1 naked/barehanded runs through each stage and people pounce on doomsayers for not "gitting good" Did you actually read the series of tweets linked or just that one? The reason the person said that is because even basic enemies can one-shot you.

the polygon article does mention getting combo'd to death which you can prevent by just hitting the block button so

lets hang out posted:the polygon article does mention getting combo'd to death which you can prevent by just hitting the block button so There is a strong tendency for people, including me, to exhagerrate quick deaths into "being one-shotted". Playing a lot of souls, I have learned to become more observant about when and where damage is happening. Before developing this as a skill, lots of very quick deaths feel like being one-shotted. But actually you were only at 80% health and it was a 2-hit combo and you mid-attack so they got counter-damage. Stuff like that.

Just because you ignore it doesn't mean it's not there. Likewise, just because it is ignorable doesn't mean it's not a problem.

Basic enemies can oneshot you but "basic enemies can oneshot you" is pretty exaggerated. If you're going for a low-armor build and are fighting a dude with a giant axe who does a flourish you don't get out of the way of, yeah, you'll die in one hit. Notice how many caveats are added to that.

There is precedent for hard-rear end games having slightly-less-hard-rear end demos. That'd be pretty interesting in that case, because the demos were still pretty hard and had a pretty small margin for error. I'm curious to see if that's the case on Tuesday or if some people are just not adapting to how important upgrading your armor is and how important it is not to get hit in the back.

Dark Souls II was easier than the demo because you got to level 100 like halfway through the game and you could get a max weapon in a few hours of playing
