    i'm doing a magic playthrough of dark souls 2 but i don't really like it

    magic is dumb in it

    but it is awesome in salt and sanctuary. much faster and more fun.

    how does it work? I'm doing a strength build with no magic at all, though i'm contemplating saving up grey pearls for respeccing a bit into prayers

    Reporter: Or the radio.
    Pop: He listens to a lot of people on the radio, but not you. [Laughter] I listen to you all the time though.
    Reporter: I appreciate that Pop, thanks.

    magic is tight. it's all fire or lightning

    each time you cast one, it moves the balance over and if you go too far you redline and take a lot of damage

    i have a ring that ups that imbalance but gives me more damage. so if i spam my lightning bolt 3 times i'll take damage. but if i go like 2 bolts then a fireball, i'm good.

    it's fast to cast but not instantaneous so you gotta plan. i've had enemies zoom at me and get in too close for my bolt because my guy extends his hand. then i shout SHIT SHIT SHIT on the stream and roll away and run for my life

    Two things that should be opt out rather than opt in at 18:

    1) Voting

    2) Organ Donation

    Organ donation is an interesting one. I did a research paper on it as my capstone getting my JD.

    My thesis was related to first amendment issues concerning religious preferences of the decedent being overidden by next of kin who are not party to the donative gift decision. It turned into an economic analysis of available organs.

    Long story short, we could literally end organ shortages tomorrow if Organ Procurement Organizations - i.e. groups of doctors managing nonprofit entities responsible for organ collecrion in each state - stopped asking next of kin for permission to effect already-made valid donative gifts.

    OPOs are shielded from any liability under the 1984 National Organ Transplant Act. Next of kin are only given a veto as a courtesy.

    Some really interesting literature out there about getting around NOTA bans on valuable compensation for a donative gift by tying it to a rebate in driver's license renewal fees as a legal fiction.

    SummaryJudgment on
    Some days Blue wonders why anyone ever bothered making numbers so small; other days she supposes even infinity needs to start somewhere.

    I really loved Dark Souls 1. It has it's flaws but it's probably one of the most inventive, forward-thinking games of the last generation.

    It was already a sequel though!

    I totally like the first one better too.

    sakura con sounds like hell on earth

    It was pretty much like any other random comic book convention when I was there, though I haven't gone in years. More cosplay, and more girls than at a comic book convention, but otherwise pretty much the same.

    I like PAX a lot more because omg fuck spending a whole weekend buying merch, but I'd go back to sakuracon before I went back to emerald city comic-con.

    The biggest thing I dislike about these forums is how incredibly eager some posters are to differentiate the Bad Nerds from Us Good Nerds, when it's all just a bunch of kids having fun with their friends.

    before they nerfed spell counts, faith lightning was ridiculous cheese mode in DS2


    not just the spells either, any lightning weapon was silly strong

    of course they still are strong but in the DLC basically everything has 99.999999999999999% lightning resistance

    i don't know if this is because women aren't used to making initial contact and therefore suck at it

    or it's just that people suck at it in general and men aren't used to being on the receiving end of mediocre initiation

    more the second probably, given what i've seen from women on tinder complaining about dumbs

    like, it's not about nerd-on-nerd violence

    It's about my passion for convention management and frustrations with a pigheaded venue.

    the WSCC should be able to differentiate a well-run convention from an amateur-hour show, but they don't, and it will always irk me to some degree because it drags down the show I work so hard to make happen year after year.

    i am probably doing two concurrent runs, one with bow/dex and one with light armour + ultra greatsword

    but it will all depend on what kind of neat stuff they've added - i might try a hybrid str/fai build, or a shield build if bashing/shield battle arts are effective, or if a polearm matches my build and is fun to use i'll do that
