    Pfft, sometimes you just want wreck shit all casual. Ain’t no shame in it as long as you aren’t trying to pretend you’re uber 1337, or fucking someone over.

      There are games for that (GTA, Just Cause, any RPG ever), don’t play a game that’s intended to be challenging on god mode, because that kills the entire point of the game.

        Nah, it doesn’t.

        The entire point of any game is to have fun while killing time.

        sometimes that means just going ham. Sometimes it means jacking up the difficulty setting, or nerfing yourself, or speedrunning, or wandering around and doing nothing at all except look at the.graphics.

        Maybe, for you the only point of a game is to fuck around on.whatever the max difficulty is, and I genuinely hope that you always have games that can give you that.

        But, my gaming homie, there’s no single point to gaming.

        And, can we be real for a minute? Most games, the skill involved is hand-eye coordination combined with reflexes. Which is fine for what it is, but it isn’t like the challenges involved are.something special.

        If it’s a single player game, who cares?

        If you have fun playing the game then congrats! The point is a game is to have fun.

    I’m just gonna put this anecdote out there:

    When I first started dating my ex, I wanted him to play through some Dark Souls to see if he had any determination. He failed completely and whined a lot, but I kept dating him anyway. Nearly 5 years later, I ended up leaving him, and a big part of it was his defeatist outlook and complete lack of willpower.

    I’m not saying being bad at Dark Souls is a red flag, but I think girlie would be justified in getting out now.

      I’ve 100%'d all 3 souls games.

      Can we date (As an experiment)? I suspect dating someone with the obsessive qualities to do this is also frustrating.

        I’ve only 100%'d DS1, so I’m pretty impressed by your ability. I’m not obsessive enough over most of the franchise to get 100%, namely because there’s sections of DS2 and DS3 I don’t love replaying, but I love DS1 to death so I wanted to have the Dark Soul achievement.

        Anyway, if you wanna shoot your shot dm me, just know you gotta be cool with bussy.

          Bitch, I don’t care what colour your snatch is, but you better be stacked like the Asylum Demon.

          Lay down some soapstone for me and I’ll drop into your ass like I start that fight.

          When I’m done with you, you’ll be begging for NG+
