People rarely play that cheaply
I so would.

I'm not even sure what you guys are saying, but whatever "cheap" strategies there'd be in PvP, I'd so use them.

Invaders usually complain if the host heals or uses cheap tactics to get rid of them

Which is funny because it's your world and you can kill them however you want.
Not "usually" at all nowdays. Maybe two years into Xbox release that was true.

poise ruined PvP balance sadly
LOL

If it wasn't for poise those faggots with no armor using that ring that lets you do cartwheels are fucking unstoppable.
Poise = continue to do damage while your opponent is stunlocked
The ridiculous iframes of flip-ring = stalling the game


one of these things definitely seems to be "either play this meta or you lose"
People rarely play that cheaply and if they do just be cheap back.
Havel's and Giant's and Wolf are all very prolific because of poise.


of my last 3 invades in woods 3/5 people had havels

Have you ever been literally two pixels away from recovering your souls, and you just die?

Thankfully I didn't lose that much. Still, fuck this mechanic.
Recovery is pretty forgiving really.
Except when you lose it in a boss area.
If souls weren't as important as they are, I wouldn't consider it an issue. But they're everything.
As long as you don't die prior to the furthest you got before, you can keep trying until you survive. Usually the biggest payouts from boss kills are immediately followed by a fire. Everything else can just be farmed again. Game gives the player fair chance to get it again. (Except for boss areas, but even then you know the risk you take when you move through fog)

Gotta disagree on this one. Dark Souls isn't all too punishing for death if you don't take risks upon yourself. It's not like Isaac or Nuclear Throne where you can lose a run to RNG spawning a car on top of you.

There ARE some instances of losing stuff to weird AI cheese or some poorly designed areas.

kind of sucks you aren't gunna play online tho
there are some really cool little things about it

like soap jokes or getting free estus when others are fighting in the same area as you

and some other things I can't reveal yet
I've contemplated jumping online towards the end of the playthrough, just so I can have something to say about it in the review, but I'll worry about that when it comes.

That would legitimately be a mistake. If you don't like online at the start of the game, you'll like it even less at the end of the game.

Primarily because that's when you'll meet people with high tier equipment or pursuers and you'll just get fucking melted by them.
By now everybody's high level. He should try dueling when he's at least level 125.
DS1 works with level ranges, not soul memory.

That said, people at all levels in PvP are probably minmaxed and basically going to wreck him. I made a cheese build right now at lvl 20 and am going against cheesers of equal merit running around with Furysword maxxed out.

Pretty sure we had the exact same lines before Winy but again:

You have nothing to say to someone who gets the raw end of a bad dice roll in life other than "sorry that just happens sometimes", which is an admission of guilt. Sure. Most people have the will to say that life is worth living, and in a cumulative sense, those successes erase the fact failures happen. But in the end you should consider the principle of putting others through that ordeal in order to achieve that net gain. I don't think slavery is moral even if it can improve the quality of life of the masters.

Why would you want to be antinatalist if you can't know what happened before life or what happens after death?
shut up you filthy spiritualist
Where is the spiritualism in that?
the idea that consciousness exists past physical means
i know the experience of existence itself is surreal and not necessarily sensical
but
it's a deep rabbit hole
Unfortunately you don't just get to ignore potential problems for your perspective.
The idea of consequences in the afterlife for your actions begets all actions.
You cannot say to not do something because it'll negatively effect your afterlife, because it could very equally improve your afterlife. Or it might even hurt your afterlife to not do these things.

Suffering does not have to be absolute for anti-natalism to be sound.

Of course it does. Verbatim has said many times on here than any amount of suffering nullifies any potential good that may be experienced in life.
You can choose to make that trade, but I do not see how you can make it for others without risking that they will not feel the same.

Because a foundational premise of anti-natalism is that suffering is always bad; this is demonstrably untrue.
By the way--if you're going to make this argument, that suffering is good because humans can learn or derive wisdom from it, I could easily argue that the wisdom I have derived from the suffering that pervades our existence has manifested itself as anti-natalism.

Well sure, and of course it'd be true (your experiences of suffering has led to your belief in anti-natalism). But you'd also be telling me that suffering could result in something good, which undermines your entire premise.
Suffering does not have to be absolute for anti-natalism to be sound. It just has to be possible. As long as it exists, it will be irresponsible to create life, because not doing so entails no risk or consequence.

It's just a toxic mindset that appeals to the depressed who want to feel morally superior to others.

It's as if you order a sandwich and you don't like it, and along comes Mr Antinatalist to tell you if you were dead you wouldn't have eaten that sandwich you disliked. It's one of the most retarded ideologies around.
Oh, yeah, eating a sandwich you don't like. That's totally what I'm concerned about in life.

Not murder, genocide, rape, torture, thievery, war, poverty, oppression, extortion, starvation, disease, depression, pain, suffering, death--all over the world, to almost every single goddamn human fucking being on this planet, for the past four billion years. You're right--all of that is comparable to eating a bad sandwich.

Thank you. Thank you for showing my philosophy for the blight it truly is.
That's the childishness of your ideology though.

Something bad happened? Just don't have kids and wait to die. 👍
Kind of the opposite of childishness to have restraint and concern for others, tbh.

Really though anyone who honestly wants to reproduce instead of adopt because "they want their own" is the equivalence of an ape.

I mean if you want to run the line of "people agree with this ideology because of their experiences", can't it be said that you don't follow it because of your lack of experience?

For a minute there I thought the lady in the video was a man.. <.<
She's trans.

Your movement attracts the worst of fronts to present itself.

Nothing against trans folks but damn.
if you judge an ideology by the attractiveness of its followers you need to get your dick out of your brain

I wasn't judging based off attraction. And I wasn't explicitly judging either. The fact that she's trans, with that whole debacle being the thing that it is in society at the moment, pans out to be a negative reinforcement to most people who'd look at this ideology.
Are inescapable conditions that could not be prevented (other than the person not existing) not reasoned evidence that creating life comes with the responsibility of considering said things happening? And how do the parties responsible for taking that risk respond if confronted about the fact they took that risk? "Oops, sorry you experienced inexorable pain, we just kind of hoped it wouldn't happen that way."? Is that a situation an ethical person should put themselves in?
