You'll either get invade by Knight Lautrec in Anor Londo, or you use the item to invade him, I'm not sure.

Either way, it's towards the end of Anor Londo. There's also a firekeeper at the first bonfire there who can reinforce your Estus Flasks like the woman below Firelink Shrine could.

It's not utterly terrible, but I'm still glad it's not in my GT.

I just got to Anor Londo, at the bonfire where you meet that firekeeper. Right now I'm just farming the giant knights there to get my endurance and vitality up a bit.

Good plan, Anor Londo can be a bitch the first time you go through it

Dat thread Carpi linked.

Why are they talking? Clearly no-one outside of this thread knows a lick about games.

Threads like that are like old socks that you find behind the drawer. You know it's horrendous, but you just gotta take a whiff.

God damn, those archers in Anor Londo are ridiculous. I finally managed to get past them after dying at least 20 times, but that is the first time in this game I felt like my deaths were cheap rather than just from me making mistakes.

Once you realize the parrying window for them, the archers become seriously not a big deal at all. I maybe die once if I am unlucky when I go there now. You really just have to run past all the bats, take a little break after the first bridge, and run right up to the one on the right and parry him off.

Running past the bats didn't even occur to me, I was fighting them each time which made dying even more annoying. I tried parrying them once but I ended up falling off the ledge, so I stopped trying that.

Any tips for those giant knights right before the fog gate for the boss? My lightning spear only does 64 damage and they always run away and heal before I can kill them, and any non-spear weapon takes too long to swing so that they kill me before I can do any real damage. It doesn't help they refuse to be seperated, if I try to lure one with an arrow they both charge.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a path that allows me to take them on one by one, which is more than doable. Now I just need to figure out how to kill them efficiently so I can fight the boss with most of my flasks in tow.

Guys! I finally have a computer worth a shit!

A friend/regular customer of mine at work is in the tech field, and works on and with computers for a living, and he refurbishes "broken" computers and laptops, and sells them (people give him computers with "problems" that take no time and effort to fix, then he sells them), and I got a sweet little laptop for $200 with my tax refund today.


So, now that I have Steam on it, I plan on having very little recognizable free time, for the near future.

TF2 was good when it came out. I tried it last month and it got really bad. Every server I joined just had people running around doing nothing and staying in the safe zone with ******s yelling on the mic

That's exactly what it was like when it came out. Except without ******ed items and hats, and maybe less afkers because of trading.

I use to play it as spy before his cloak even recharged from ammo, now he has a yol50000x watch.

I wonder how much longer Valve can or will keep TF2 running. They just keep cramming shit into it year after year. It takes about 12 GB of disk space and it's really inefficient. The load/connect times can be insanely long at times. My friend was telling me how it can take about 20 minutes to get into a server. I wonder if they'll eventually reach a limit to the amount of shit they can add to it.

Probably, all they're adding is models and shit so they can keep this up for a decent amount of time.

The game has grown increasingly unprofessional in its art style, optimization and balance system. I found it hilarious that the sniper got like 20 items to counter the spy with, and the heavy got one to counter snipers (Fist of steel) which wasn't even great and the community went apeshit.

I'm not even sure how a game with such big changes like tf2 can have a competitive scene when the balance system is so unstable.

NothingRocks

Not necessarily, they've also been putting in new game modes like MvM.
