Gaming / Re: When you play the Souls games...
« on: March 05, 2018, 12:02:26 PM »
i tend not to use guides for any game in general, partly because of pride, partly because of how good it feels when i'm finally done, and partly because, in theory, a well-designed game is not going to require you to use any guides in order to beat it

i'll ask people questions about small mechanics, but in terms of progression, if i'm ever lost, it's up to me to figure out where to go, because i view that feeling of being lost as part of the whole experience, something i'd rather not lose

dark souls is no exception, but i have allowed people to drop hints on me, if only to emulate the experience of having the soapstone messages that i'm missing out on, since i play the game offline

i'm not above asking about obscure mechanics if it'll only help me understand the game's combat more, but i would never look up where to go, what to do, or how to beat certain bosses though

basically, anything that helps me understand the rules of the game? that's fine
lore? that's fine, generally speaking
anything that helps me progress or beat the game? that's for me to figure out

for example, not understanding how poise works isn't really going to enhance my experience of the game once i eventually learn how it works, and it's not going to ruin my experience if i just ask about it; that's just a matter of saving time

not understanding how to beat a boss, though, is part of the idea of fighting a boss in the first place

It's not a profanity filter, it's a slur filter.

If you feel the need to constantly use slurs because freeze peach or some non sense, then fair warning Sapphire probably isn't the place for you
There are several practical instances where using a slur unfiltered would make having certain conversations about certain subjects run a lot smoother.

Given the context, our minds will be able to fill in the blanks anyway, so having a filter doesn't actually filter out the word at all. The only effect it produces is making the website look like it's comprised of small, overly-sensitive children.

It wouldn't be a Verbatim nuzlocke if some stupid shit didn't happen at some point.

So the other day, I was making my way up to Victory Road, but not before getting my penultimate encounter for the Johto region, not counting Mt. Silver: Route 26. After clearing the route of all its trainers, this is the last area in the game where I'm able to get a Pineco. Not only have I never used this thing, I've never even seen it a single time in a Gen II game, and this was my last chance to find one.

Unsurprisingly, I found a Hoothoot instead. Mildly vexed, I close the 3DS, intending to play some more of it later.

So I pick it up and turn it back on to discover that I forgot to save. I was back in the Dragon's Den where the last thing I did was get the Extreme Speed Dratini, and now I have to re-fight every single trainer on Route 26 again. Not devastating, but still kind of annoying.

So, I'm trying to clear the route as fast as possible, not thinking too hard about what I'm doing. Suddenly, my Kingler wound up biting the dust after making a retarded and rushed decision that I wouldn't have made at all if I were focusing.

I'm wondering if I should count this death. I literally already cleared this route already, and I was just making up for lost progress. But at the same time, all of this shit was easily preventable and is 100% my fault. So maybe I should count it. But technically, if I count the death, then maybe I should also give myself a second chance at Pineco, too. I'm not going to do that, though. I just kinda wish this didn't happen, because no matter what choice I make, it's going to make me feel guilty.

So, here's my compromise:

1.) I'm gonna keep Kingler. The death doesn't count because I cleared this area already.
2.) I'm banning Kingler from the Elite 4. So, if I want to use him again during this run, I have to win.
3.) No extra Pineco attempt.
4.) This is the only time I'm ever allowing anything like this to happen again.

Suicune will have to replace Kingler for the time being. It's way stronger anyway, and I'm normally not cool with using legendaries, but given that Suicune was the first legendary I ever caught, and the first thing I ever used a Master Ball on, there's sentimental purpose to using it, too.

What I find particularly funny is that people who hate on capitalism seem to be very aggressive and bitter towards anyone who is successful or even just in disagreement with them, and yet they do not seem to care that they display that kind of attitude, even though it virtually saps any influence they might have over the average population and makes it incredibly hard for them to actually create any of the change within government they would like to see.

Your average working man or woman who just wants to make their way in life, provide for their family, and be happy is going to look at that kind of hateful rhetoric, even if it's directed at the rich or the country, and be completely turned off by it.

Hate doesn't initiate change, not without violence. You have to present yourselves as respectable. There's a reason why Martin Luther King Jr asked his supporters to march in dress clothes and not black block or something intimidating. He understood the value of the public's perceived image of your movement.

i mean i fucking hate rich people, so i guess that makes me a classist too

but the fact that poor people are the ones having the most kids, despite being the ones who shouldn't be having any period, doesn't put them in my favor either

this is probably the most who-gives-a-shit form of bigotry there is
the idea that you can actually be classist against the rich is about as valid as the idea that racism against whites in america is a problem. classism is very much a valid concern; you would know this if you were actually dedicated to morality. and you really have no place to be telling poor people how many kids to have you ugly little chucklefuck.
nobody on this website has dedicated themselves to morality more than i have, especially not you

and i am in every place to tell everyone in the world how many kids they should be having

Can someone from Sapphire explain to me what ideologies/beliefs they considered bannable, and why does everything on there seem to boil down to politics, at least from an outside perspective that's what it seems like.

I can understand the dislike of banter/rudeness, but what I don't understand is what seems like the very firm political thought that controls the group, and the apparent disdain for any opposing thought.
the only thing that gets people banned is bigotry.

if someone says something that is racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, classist, ableist, etc then they'll be warned or banned.
you people are such sheltered little bitches hahahaha

You don't think it's weird how the country shut itself off from communications, or how there's no electricity on satellite images? How about testimonies from people who've escaped the country, or the fact that they hunt down people who try to leave? You're just gonna ignore these things because you're so high on your what if scenario?
they do have electricity. and uh, you know people expatriate from every nation right? and for that matter, isn't it pretty funny that US media focuses so much on people leaving this one particular nation, the one that we havent quite been able to topple for the better part of the last century? almost like we're using it as a justification for the continued encirclement/threats of invasion. and the US has never lied about justifications for those sorts of things, as we all know.
The Soviet Union actually did this to Afghanistan. Did you support that colonialism? They wanted to destroy Islam completely (as well as other minor religions, some far older than Islam) and force Afghanis to speak Russian. Do you support that behavior just because it was committed by communists instead of capitalist Americans? Keep in mind they did half succeed with countries like Tajikistan etc.
i dont support much of anything the soviet union did after stalin. lenin's revolution was betrayed; communism in russia was doomed well before the USSR actually fell. and im not talking about stalin with you again. it's funny how terribly off base your perceptions of me can be.
>it wasn't real communism
