Helldivers 2 director weighs in on Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree's difficulty: 'A game for everyone is a game for no one'
  • Don't know why you're getting downvoted, but yeah he's probably the worst boss in the game if you're running defensive builds or are used to backrolling attacks. Mohg is sooo much easier when using aggressive builds + rolling forwards or to his right though.

  • Helldivers 2 director weighs in on Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree's difficulty: 'A game for everyone is a game for no one'
  • I think some people are just frustrated that the majority of the new cool weapons/ashes are locked behind difficult content. If you are too rusty to clear the initial difficulty wall, you'd be restricted to very little stuff after buying the $50 dlc.

    That being said, a castle skip already exists so you can go collect the Smithscript series and Anvil Hammer - without killing a thing - as long as you explore hard enough!

  • HORI announced a special gamepad for Steam / Steam Deck [classic "Xbox layout"]
  • HORI is a household name for fighting sticks btw, there's some degree of quality asurance there. But for regular controllers I do think there are better alternatives.

    8BitDo is absolutely fantastic, loved using my Pro 2 because of the back buttons

  • Twitch banned Dr Disrespect after viewing messages sent to a minor, say former employees
  • Twitch's behaviour is mildly disturbing for this case, in that they were monitoring Beahm's private DMs, and then tried to hide it with a settlement when wrongdoing was found (to hide that they were monitoring prominent users of the whisper system?)

  • Twitch banned Dr Disrespect after viewing messages sent to a minor, say former employees
  • Zero receipts, entire essay with little to no point being made, starts off talking about how honest, responsible and how much he totally hates pedophiles. While posting an admission to sexting a minor, years after telling the world he'd sue Twitch for a ban that he let people speculate for years so he could avoid responsibility.

    Unless he shows the world what exactly he texted the minor soon, this statement is one hell of a self inflicted wound for his case.

  • Meta Now Lets You Force Update Your Quest System Software
  • Account to login, and the initial version of oculus program was pretty functional

    Iirc Meta bought Oculus already but they didn't push their stuff until halfway through Quest 1 lifetime and before Quest 2 launch

  • Meta Now Lets You Force Update Your Quest System Software
  • Remember when the Rift and early OG Quest weren't chained to shitty software forced by Facebook? Oculus was once the gold standard in value for dollar VR experience. Arguably still is - if you intend to use it for half a year after purchase and never again.

    Don't buy Meta VR sets:

    parts tend to break in time with no easy/existing replacement (ex. Rift S adjustment wheel, specialized unbuyable cable), shitty customer service, they phase out support for perfectly working sets (Quest 1), and their required software enshittifies every year (third party alternatives like OcuTrayTool worked for me before but idk now).

    • signed, former Oculus fan who used them for work and personally bought a Rift S (RIP my beloved)

    The Pico 4 has absurdly durable hardware for a cheaper price too (check out the 1 year after reviews/drop tests compared to Quest 2/3 sets), I'd be so sad if Pico exits the cheap VR market after 4S.

  • As CEOs chase infinite growth, Hidetaka Miyazaki says FromSoftware gets "better games and better decisions" from a "conservative forecast" with "room to fail"
  • If there's one company that doesn't do this, with leadership criticizing layoff culture, it's FromSoft. You can give some benefit of the doubt for this company as they have been here forever.

    Admittedly their team is quite small and they do go through multiple crunch times + super stressful Japanese work culture though. The tradeoff being their employees find work 'meaningful' as their games are genre leaders.
