once I’ve mastered how to dodge everything on the way and if it’s not too far of a distance.

It certainly was fun to perfect the sprint to the boss in a few Souls games.

I guess it just grew old with every Souls like doing it. Some games do it quite well but most are just annoying.

Demon’s Souls was probably the worst culprit for brutal runbacks of all the souls games I’ve played.

Even Dark Souls 1 is pretty bad by today’s standards. Luckily it has gotten better with each release, with Elden Ring essentially spawning you right back in the fight.

Definitely a pure souls like, a pretty polished one as well. Trailer makes it look pretty epic but it’s generally fairly slow and methodical, stamina management is key.

In addition to the normal souls gameplay, it also has 3 stances you can switch between depending on if you want to play offensive/defensive or if you want to dodge or parry.

It also has “Ki”, which you can use to regenerate a part of your stamina after each hit. Essentially after an attack you can either attack again or time a Ki pulse. If your timing is right, you get back some stamina. Pretty neat system actually.

There’s also quite some inventory and skill management. It’s overdoing it a little bit in that department but I have seen worse.

The running back to the boss is my biggest gripe with souls games, just let me try the boss on repeat. I get 0 enjoyment out of running the same route over and over again, so I’m happy when games skip it entirely.

Finished the Lies of P DLC, it was great. Started Nioh 1 now since it was on sale for a few bucks.

I sort of ignored Nioh up until now but Iron Pineapple keeps raving about it so I thought I should check it out. So far I really like it, aged surprisingly well.

Once again, the music goes hard in this show.

Didn’t quite warm up to the new voice actors yet, especially Panty.

Is the system completely automated in the US? We still have people from that department going through each picture, checking if there is indeed a violation. That person will then type out your license plate and a letter is sent to you.

If you pay, it’s done. If you don’t pay you will have to show up to court and make your case, while they will show up with that picture and date/time as proof.

The accuser in that case is the person that read the license plate from the picture.

That’s weird. Isn’t the accuser in that case the police or whoever is in charge of those cameras? The camera just provides evidence, doesn’t it?

Yea exactly. It didn’t suck per se

It sucked pretty hard for me. Arena too small, enemy constantly pushing you against the wall, camera inside of you all the time, random clutter laying around the arena you get stuck on while dodging and fuck that grab move.

In the end I just stopped parrying and only dodged around him since parrying just seems to punish you by pushing you against the wall.

Do you use it complete or did you put it on a different handle?

Default handle for now. The range of the heavy attack is insane.

My favourite weapon by the end was a certain DLC weapon you get from the “first” boss. Love it to bits

Are the quotation marks because the actual first boss sucked and didn’t even give a weapon?

I’m playing through Lies of P Overture right now and the

has to be my favorite so far.

They have a guide for how to set things up in a Proxmox LXC: https://games-on-whales.github.io/wolf/stable/user/quickstart.html

what’s to stop me from just selecting Finland and entering bogus info?

The petition needs to be signed with the eID of a EU country, a EU passport or a EU identification card in most countries.

Unless you have one of those, you can’t sign the petition with bogus info.

Not sure how countries that don’t have those handle it.

Another cool option is Games on Whales: https://games-on-whales.github.io/

Altough you probably have to run it in a privileged LXC.

Proton-GE is available as Flatpak directly: https://github.com/flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam.CompatibilityTool.Proton-GE

After installation it will be picked up by the flatpak version of Steam automatically.

If you use Steam in a flatpak, you can download the Proton-GE flatpak, which updates automatically.

Steam automatically uses the native version if one is available, unless you override the compatibility tool to be Proton instead of the Linux runtime on a per-game basis. Nothing changed in that regard.

I don’t have a Behringer UV1 but I do have an UMC404HD and an UMC202HD. Both work flawlessly on Linux out of the box.

Doesn’t work for me unfortunately, always falls back to CPU ever since the packages were split up.

Looks like you’re right.

I switched to it when Alpaca stopped working on AMD GPUs and was under the impression it is open source.

Distrobox is much more suitable for installing RPMs on immutable distros, unless they need deep system access (e.g. Docker).

Bazzite even ships with DistroShelf for that purpose.

Just create a Fedora container for RPMs and a Ubuntu/Debian container for DEBs and install them there.
