I think it should be "The cakes are swiftly dealt with, first with cameras, then with forks, and we all go back to sitting some more." but I'm not sure.

@OrigamiRobot it looks right but that first comma might be wrong

@spugsley The problem is I read "The cakes are swiftly dealt with first" as a thought, but the word "first" doesn't go with that part of the sentence.

i'm in another room already but i'm worried the slug will slowly go somewhere i dont want it to go in the house, i would hate to accidentally step on it or find it crawling over kitchen surfaces

user58869

how can i eject this thing from my home without killing it

Chippies

@Alex try sliding a piece of paper under it gently while holding something under it to catch in case it falls (it will fall)

then put it wherever you want

user58869

i'll try that, but i'm worried that the paper will cut it, not meaning to make loads of fuss over a slug, but i'd just rather not cause it suffering, though it could be argued that i have no way of knowing that a paper cut will cause suffering to it, or that it is capable of suffering at all

Yuki

@Sterno I don't think I have you added on Bnet.

Sterno

Sterno#1494

Chippies

@Alex that's why you do it gently and slowly. Best if you use a harder type of paper and you can kinda push it towards the door at an angle, so it's less likely to pinch the slug between paper and door

@Alex also, from what I have read, slugs have no pain receptors whatsoever

user58869

@Chippies i used a tissue and put it outside

Chippies

^actually scratch that, I think that was about ants, not slugs

@Alex good job! I'm assuming it's not cold winter where you are :P

user58869

it's cold out there

user58869

12:37 AM

but not snowing

Chippies

@Alex well either way, if it was already outside, it probably will do just fine remaining outside.

user58869

today was quite a nice day... i imagine the slug will survive, after all it came in from the cold in the first place... but maybe it found it's way in because of the warmth

user58869

according to this they come in because they smell the pet food

The problem with the Bioshock stats, at least in my case, is that the game has no replay value for me.

I play for the story and once I get through one playthrough, all the value is lost. Or used up, rather.

Fluttershy

@DragonLord That pretty much sums it up. It takes a good bit of patience to learn how things attack, and what you can do to counter.

GnomeSlice

and gave them the proper game names

Chippies

2:46 AM

@DragonLord you do need to learn the timing and animations of your own and enemy attacks and you have to know what to expect from everything.

it does require set amount of skill, but it also requires a lot of in-game knowledge

Which is where trial-and-error comes in. Or google.

DragonLord

It just looks like what matters is "tight" gameplay

Caution every step of the way.

Some prior experience with playing "tightly":

"incredibly high difficulty": I'm playing the Android version in Hard mode, which matches the DS version in difficulty, and aside from the bosses, the game isn't too difficult for me. Yes, some bosses do require very tight play. When I fought Leviathan, Rosa had to cast Curaja right from the start while Cecil casted Shell. Then I had to revive and heal any KO'd characters, with very tight timing (like having Anna omnicast Curaga, then having someone else use a Phoenix Down halfway into the charge time). — DragonLord Jul 15 '13 at 4:15

(continued from previous comment) All of this had to be done before any attacks could be made, and I had to have Rosa and Cecil cast more healing spells in advance and in a staggered fashion while attacks were made so that I could keep up with Leviathan's attacks. Yes, it can get hard, but it isn't obviously so to someone with more than a decade of JRPG experience (one of my first JRPGs was Pokémon Crystal). — DragonLord Jul 15 '13 at 4:41

For context: the mentioned game is Final Fantasy IV for Android.

If I'm prepared to play in a similar fashion, should I expect much trouble with Dark Souls?

Chippies

@DragonLord I had to click on the android version link to figure that out. I was stunned by the fact that Dark Souls is on android, lol, which I found out it's not

@DragonLord I can't comment on Dark Souls 2, but if you have patience and you can learn from mistakes, then you can certainly enjoy Dark Souls

DragonLord

Like I said, I'm not a fan of the Dark Souls style, but I take my skill seriously and would like to improve my overall gameplay ability

Chippies

it is extremely satisfying to parry enemy attacks more or less consistently after a lot of trial and error

Yuki

Dark Souls is all about realizing when you're making mistakes (and you will make mistakes) and learning from them.

Also, do not expect to go into Dark Souls and never die. Those runs only happen after playing the game for a long time.

DragonLord

2:54 AM

@Yuki Of course not

But I don't like having to retry dozens of times to get past something

And I realize that dying several hundred times is perfectly normal in any Souls game

Unless, of course, you're not making meaningful improvements every time you die

Michael Frank

@DragonLord You'll hate Dark Souls then

Chippies

a very important thing to learn early in the game is to dodge attacks

when you have that, you have to learn to parry consistently

Michael Frank

@Chippies Also, HP is just a mistake buffer. The real resource is your Stamina.

DragonLord

Any other games which challenge players to learn from mistakes without being so tedious? I take skill very seriously.

Chippies

when you can do both of those, you will be able to not die long enough to find out good ways to kill stuff or if you even should kill stuff

@DragonLord @DragonLord if you take skill very seriously, you shouldn't have many issues with Dark Souls

you WILL die, but if you are skilled enough, you will die due to lack of knowledge

which obviously once you die, you'll have learned that you can die that way

so if you are skilled, next time you can avoid that death

Michael Frank

3:02 AM

Also, figuring out what enemies reset or can be skipped is extremely useful.

Chippies

also, @DragonLord you mentioned FF IV as a skill example, but it's a jrpg

Dark Souls is much more action'y than any jrpg

DragonLord

If we ignore technical mistakes in gameplay (and yes, I have experience in ARPGs), what are the most common causes of death?

Chippies

I haven't played FF IV, but I imagine "skill" in that game is more about thinking what to use and when

Michael Frank

@DragonLord "Try Jumping."

or fighting an enemy 10, 20, 30+ times and then suddenly they pull a different attack on you.

DragonLord

So it seems Dark Souls requires either a lot of experimentation (with the attendant deaths) or a lot of prior research (which would include reading bloodstains left by other players)?

Dark Souls II statistics: On PS3, 67% of deaths result from enemies--which would seem to suggest that technical errors made by players account for the majority of deaths, but how many of them do you think arose from lack of experience or knowledge in handling a particular situation?

user15026

3:18 AM

user15026

Apparently this info was on hte back of a still-non-expired box of cereal

Fluttershy

@DragonLord Honestly, I'd say as many as were not the result of lack of experience or knowledge.

There are certain enemies in DS1 that I know how to deal with, but they still manage to surprise me from time to time.

DragonLord

As a person, what do I expect to gain if I spend 10-15 hours on Dark Souls?

How would it impact my playing style in other games, and would it affect the way I do everyday non-gaming tasks?

(As a high-difficulty game, completion is probably not the end goal.)

People seem to get a sense of enlightenment, so to speak, after playing Dark Souls

I'm evaluating a possible purchase of the Prepare to Die Edition on Steam, and I'd like to know if it's worth it.

The gist of the game's marketing seems to be "take the Dark Souls challenge, and see if you have what it takes to master one of the most difficult games in the world"

@DragonLord Well, it definitely makes you more cautious.

And you start to try to learn patterns in enemy AI. Which may or may not help, depending on the game.

If you've played Dark Souls a lot, it definitely makes button-mashing combo games harder to play (God of War, DMC, Bayonetta if IIRC, etc.)

LessPop_MoreFizz

Dark Souls skill set is about pattern recognition, patience and timing. That isn't a skill set that's universally useful in video games (and, you could argue, it's a skill set that's actually declined significantly in the number and kind of AAA titles that really tap into it over the past ~10 years or so), but for those games in which it's valuable, you'll absolutely get better at it by playing DS.

If you're more interested in speed, coordination, strategy, or any number of other video game skillets, DS might not be the game for you.

The best comparison I can think of, in some ways, is Shadow of the Colossus. Both games employ very similar gameplay loops of exploration, observation, and exploitation. The key difference is that SotC builds those loops across a very small number of very large encounters, whereas DS builds them over a very large number of very small encounters.

Which has the interesting knock on effect of substantially increasing the raw quantity of failures, because that basic loop is basically sped up to 11.

@LessPop_MoreFizz ...which is why it's normal to die hundreds of times in a typical Dark Souls playthrough. It all boils down to reproducibly precise play.

Dark Souls is all about precision.

I've read that timing windows can be narrower than a tenth of a second, and of course, there is very little room for error.
