  • I think of him as a stronger version of Rennala, who I’d call the least fun demigod. Both spam magic and teleport around while summoning crap.

    However, I’d argue the worst fight is the gank fight just before the final boss. It’s the only one I’d never even think about trying without doing any summoning myself. I probably could win eventually, but I don’t think there’s a second of enjoynent to be found here.









  • Just finished the Elden Ring DLC, which was overall still fun but felt overtuned at times. While I didn’t use any summons throughout the base game and initially tried to keep it that way, some bosses simply weren’t fun to learn anymore.

    Afterwards I dove into my backlog and started God of War 2018. I had pretty high expectations, given how beloved it is. Honestly, it’s fine at best - the combat is boring and the overall design can be summarized as AAA slob. Maybe it does get better, I’m not very far yet.







  • Doesn’t work, since they are fulfilled sequentially.

    Do the opposite of my next wish. -> Fulfilled, he is set to do the opposite next.

    Don’t fulfill my 3rd wish. -> Fulfilled, the wish does effectively nothing and he’s got one left that will be fulfilled. All instructions from the first wish are done with and discarded.

    Ignore my first wish. -> Fulfilled, there is nothing left to be ignored about his first wish anymore since it’s already done. The wish does nothing and he successfully wasted all 3 by trying to be a smart ass.




  • I admit I only read about half of it, but I don’t think the second half could convince me why anyone would ever think this concept works.

    If you teach children to guess based on the pictures, they are not reading - that much should be obvious. I’m confused how they would even start to read anything without pictures. You cannot guess based on the context if you cannot read deep enough to establish one, even worse your context could be wrong.

    However, the worst advice is to skip words. You’re not learning new words if you skip anything you don’t know already.
