Es gibt einen Grund, warum ich mich vorbereite, nach Neuseeland zu fliehen, wenn die AFD noch größer wird. Sobald die an meine Daten bei der Krankenkasse kommen oder Gesprächsverläufe, werde ich, wenn’s nach denen geht, in einen Zug gesteckt und verschwunden.

This might be a weird one as the game is often blamed for not having difficulty settings, but Elden Ring. While it doesn’t have a straight up setting that says easy, there’s a lot of ways to make the game easier.

I really hate how Fromsoft put the “Prepare to Die” tagline onto Dark Souls when it came to PC and seems to develop into more bullshitty scenarios that kill you in unpredictable ways. Elden Ring has for example a lot of enemies that hold their attack for unintuitively long just to catch you off guard and punish you when you roll on the intuitive timing.

The community is to blame as well for the bad reputation of the games with people making fun of others using big shields and summons to beat the game. And herein lie the difficulty options of Elden Ring:

• Using greatshields makes a lot of the game a lot easier
• Using spirit ashes makes places that allow them a lot easier (as opposed to player and npc summons they don’t affect the enemies health pool)
• Using magic allows you to attack with little risk to yourself

You can also summon other players but i don’t know if that makes the game easier: As noted above it raised the enemies HP so everyone has to do their part to succeed but if you are a caster you can mostly sit back and blast enemies from afar while your summons tank. Using player summons also opens your world up for invasions and while the invader usually is in a 1v3 situation they also usually know what they are doing and how to deal with such situations.

If you’re still stuck at a boss, just go somewhere else and explore. The game is designed to teach you that lesson with the first actual boss but a lot of people take it as the game just being hard.

All of this is to say: it is okay to use the games integrated mechanics that make it easy. It doesn’t make you less of a gamer. Elden Ring has such a beautifully crafted world and if you’re looking very interesting lore and it’s a shame that seemingly all people talk about is the difficulty. It is actually the easiest Fromsoft title if you want it to be as it gives you a lot more and more powerful tools than the other games.

(Also if you see a chonky looking gal in black full body armour called Sieglinde, summon me. I have great heals, a big chonky sword and love helping people 😘)

When the sun dies it will take the earth with it iirc so if you can wait until then you’re good

That honestly sounds like a good idea. I might try that, thx 😊

Well shit I live in Germany and was very much considering fleeing to NZ if the right wing parties get any bigger and Russia gets closer to defeating Ukraine. I heard Auckland is one of the gayest cities in the world so that’s where I was planning to go. Is it really that hard to find other lesbians over there?

Makes sense then that entire YouTube channels got big by explaining said “boring nonsense”.

I was and kinda still am pretty devastated :( I listened to their new song and was immediately in love with her voice and thought it was a perfect fit only to later find out that she most likely sucks as a person

Literally not, how Elden Ring multiplayer works.

1. You can’t invade solo host unless they specifically use an item for it

2. If you are coop you open yourself up for invasions and since a session has a 4 player limit you’re always either in the majority (aka ganking) or on even grounds if you decide to only summon 1 friend and let the invader live long enough for another to show up. If you invade you are pretty much always going to be in a 1v3 situation.

Wenn “der Wähler” wollte, dass die regieren, hätten 50% oder mehr die gewählt. Das ist nicht der Fall und der Rest will explizit nicht, dass die AFD regiert. Du würdest also die Mehrheit ignorieren, um ein paar Afd Affen glücklich zu machen.

The soulsborne communities are pretty much useless because it’s all just a bot reposting Reddit posts and as these are usually “i did a cool thing” you can’t really comment on posts as the person that did the thing is over on Reddit

Only with friction. Without it you’ll build exactly enough speed on your fall to the center of gravity that it carries you out to the same distance on the other side.

Think a swing on the playground. If you’re high up and swing down you build up speed and that speed carries you up again, just that due to friction you have to input energy to keep going up to the same height.

Fun story: my dad built a swing for my niece recently and the friction was very low. When i tested it, i was swinging standing up and because almost no friction slowed me down I was unable to stop and got quite scared. I had to sit down while swinging and put my feet on the ground to break.

Me neither but now I’m interested in Femboi-Hooters 👀

So in German we have different forms of job descriptions depending if the gender of the person. So doctor would be Arzt for a dude and Ärztin for a lass. Now when talking about a mixed gender group of doctors, the plural form of the masculine form would be generally used. This kinda leads to people always thinking about a group of male doctors. To mitigate that, there’s been multiple attempts to make more inclusive forms. For the most time listing both forms was the go to, as in Ärzte und Ärztinnen. The gender star was an attempt to combine it into Ärzt*Innen in which the star was read as a little pause. Other ways to write that pause include ÄrztInnen where you just capitalize the I and my favourite Ärzt:Innen, as the : is read as a pause by screen readers while the star is read as it’s own word by then. My actual favourite form however is gendering after Phettberg which entirely gets rid of the gender and builds a different plural: Ärztis. It also sounds cute and I’m all for more cuteness. That form sadly is used nowhere.

Been the younger sibling to an abusive 4 year older brother. Beating him up wasn’t an option as even small age differences are big regarding strength. All i could do was de-escalate, lock my room (and turn my key slightly because our rooms had the same key shape so he could just push my key out from the outside and unlock it) and hope he doesn’t still manage to get in there. I honestly have no advise for this to op :( My situation ended when my brother got drafted to the military for 2 years or so and when he was back he moved out.

Because ublock origin is like 2 clicks and doesn’t need a cryptobro chromium browser

Summoning animals to kill themselves does not sound like a thing a druid would do

100% agree. While i love showing off my general form some days because I’m proud of myself, it’s never just the chest and if something is visible there it’s by accident and not meant for public viewing. Sometimes it’s very hot out which might get me to put on fairly loose blouses but that’s not for show and more for me to not die of a heat stroke. So unless we’ve been dating for a bit, no, please don’t stare at my chest. If we’ve been dating however, i might do it on purpose 😋

I’ll be honest i hate those really bright lights. I get blind spots in my vision when coming across them during daytime already and don’t want to imagine how blind they’d make me at night. I also don’t see the use of them. I have my small light that came with my bike and see by far enough at night.

My lesbian heart just beats for Galadriel and that’s enough for me to watch. Also it wasn’t that bad.

Trans women were allowed in the Olympics for 20 years and haven’t won a single gold medal. The whole debate is just some made up unscientific garble by bigots.
