speaking of revenant did the buffs to her summons based on depth level help at all
>>
>>554094342
The buildup is kinda low, so the base Caligo one with Chilling Mist tends to be better.
It's pretty good for Scholar though, specially when paired with Blood Blade in another relic.
His 50 ARC makes the cold proc fast and the invisibility makes the Blood Blade spam even more braindead than it already is.

They aren't nearly as good as they are in D0. With the DLC we were all playing normals to fuck around with the new map and the summons were all extremely hard to kill for the enemies. Any sort of red D5 enemy will still just charge at them and kill them with their gap close attacks.

Balancers + Increased Cursed Sword power
His enhanced L2 is absolutely worth using with that build
>>
>>554101036
It was a really good patch for him, didn't just buff him but also helped out a ton of different playstyles. If you have no preference the easiest thing to do is to just go double balancers and then the yellow free relic that gives him attack up on suncatcher, HP/gauge on guard. Deep relics are whatever physical attack up you have. That's going to perform solidly in every situation without having to learn techs.

Bleed clawshot is massively overrated. Rally is S tier, learn to play. Ninvaders would be nice but won't fit and yes ISA is good, it's a damage boost on non-deep relics which is hard to get.
>>
>>554101991
The video would be really long if each section was a full on "how to win hitless" guide for every boss. It's more like for each boss section he highlights tricky attacks, counter strategies, and some common strafes/punishes you should take advantage of.
>>
>>554102295
bleed clawshot adds extra successive points to your grapple attacks. You should absolutely be using it if you ever use the successive talismans, successive negation, or successive necklace. To not do so would be fucking stupid.

what the fuck is stopping you from replacing that dogshit middle relic with ANYTHING with night invaders? jesus christ just say you don't have a green relic with Ninvaders on it instead of trying to act like it somehow isn't good enough

I'm D3 and I don't think I want to go higher. This is about as far as I can go with Raider without crashing a party.
>>
>>554098882
Why bother with luck when you can just double Balancers instead?
>>
>>554102607
Elden Ring is hilariously unbalanced, you can make your damage nutty even with that restriction.
>>
>>554102435
I don't care. If I want successive with Wylder, I'll powerstance. Your only real argument is I'm missing Ninvaders. Having ISA x2 is like having 4 Ninvaders on every R1.

ive got tons of good bleed clawshot relics. they dont seem that hard to find i really cant imagine not using it in the depths. rally is okay but i usually dont plan around it. in d5 so many times you will still be one pixel of health short of full and you have to flask anyway. the stronger versions with curses are not worth it at all.

Rally is insane if you're good at abusing negations. Just get 1 or 2 full HP negs and you can trade all fucking day.

>>554104702
It also helps you make the gap to full HP all the time. Nothing hurts more than having to sip TWICE to get to full HP. With rally the little bits of healing you snag naturally help close those gaps.

>>554101302
L2 doesnt count as a weapon skill and does pure physical. If you really want to main suncatcher, you want phys ups instead since they also affect ult damage and don't waste relic lines. The ED Balancer relic is fine for the random negation chance but you shouldn't rely on it defensively. Every character has a chance to proc it on weapon swings already, as swinging your weapon temporarily lowers thrust negation during the animation.

In this case I was specifically fighting stuff I've fought less often or ones I thought parrying would be unintuitive or bad against, like Sentient Pest and Adel so that I won't be caught off guard in the future

I got non everdark Adel the other day in DON and it was first time I've fought the normal version of him in months and it made me realize that I need to occasionally practice the normal versions too, even though they are generally easier. I also just lack runs against the DLC in general so I'm doing them more often currently

It's still a strong spell anon. And Release or whatever they slapped onto rotten is INSANE if you get an opening. Any time the boss gets poise broken or a serious stagger is a chance to upzip the BIG damage. You can also cast it over pankcaked Ninvaders so they wakeup into it.

What are some good weapons for an RKR build? I'm leaning heavily towards Zwei, I love the CR2 on it. I don't really like the charged heavy for the giant crusher even though it has some of the biggest bonks in the game
>>
>>554112314
Seems like a solid build. It's not as strong as mine though. Mine can use any spell any weapon art and any weapon that isn't a STR weapon. Mine is RNG proof, works amazingly when cursed by or blessed by RNG and can slot into -any- party because I can simply leave somebody their niche and focus on another niche. Somebody's Balancesloppering it up? That's okay, I can build Spellcaster. Somebody specced for Magic? That's fine, I'll stick to Balancerslop and Incants.
Looks fine though. Fun stuff. Cool build. Quality Duchess is a-ok when you build it out right. You must hate getting the Cipher Pata.

No I'm saying your relics overall are worse compared to mine and invuln is only a safety net that helps with mistakes, not an actually significant DPS advantage. It's only a matter of time before my own Affinity + 2 Restage Invuln relic drops. Then you'll have absolutely nothing over me at all. Get Affinity +6 and Fth without a -FTH Curse and find a secondary damage boost too. The more the better.

My DoN relics aren't even that good. It's possible to be better and not be a cheater. It's just that you aren't. So sit the fuck down.

Later material describes Shub Niggurath as a lower dimensional intrusion, or abstraction of our approximated perceptions, comparable to the dimensional proportions of Yog Sothoth. They are cosmic aspects, or forces of nature, much like the Outer God of Rot. All things decay and break down and adhere to entropic principles.

Correct. The anon saying “it’s all Lovecraft” isn’t wrong. Miyazaki does gargle Lovecraft’s semen.

The Erd/Ring is quite literally the ‘Color out of space’ but instead of leaving abruptly it decided to influence civilization. Glintstone is also similar but doesn’t appear to actually have a (discernible) will of its own.

The amount of knowledge you need to bring with you into elden ring to understand it is immense. A lot of the kvetching you see about the lore being incomprehensible comes from people that don't have the prerequisite knowledge base to begin with. If you do have that knowledge base the game isn't hard to understand.
I don't recommend going deep with it because the game is schizo core and you'll start seeing hidden faces everywhere and it'll drive you nuts. You'll unironically instill a pareidolia into yourself, I'm not joking.
>>
>>554123796
Falls in line with how glintstone is likely the fractured lifeforce (blue/green stars) of the former “one great”. Its guiding will (evolution?) being yellow stars. Or maybe not. I like the ambiguity.

no he really is that much better. obviously with fists you step around the issues that were solved by the buffs, but until you got your hands on fists you basically could not use his charged attacks at all. its an issue you would run into every single run as raider because his moveset would frequently get you killed even in the starter camp.
and beside that, he now gets a huge damage buff for trading deep, something that happens a lot in d5 whether you meant to or not.

The orbs on the astels back mimic the primeval current with 1 being amber like the elden beast before they fractured and left the void. The primeval sorcs peered into the current and saw it fracture and leave a void behind. Thats the physical event that spurred the fractured nature of the aliens that the insane 3 fingers wants them to return to. The astels are just set dressing so you can have suppporting evidence for the mystery once you figure it out along with the other stuff Thops discovers.

unironically true. it’s one of the poster boy movies for post 2010s nu-horror “trope -subverting, genre redefining, atmospheric, aesthetically heavy craft by post horror auteur with an arthouse edge” A24 shit. the director is some comical jew who stated he wanted to subvert the whitest and safest looking setting possible and turn it into a horror show.

Yeah but whether it was a literal big bang event that started all life and cosmic happenings everywhere, or if there was life beforehand to actually witness it, is a mystery to me. Ymir describes it as a rupture, and glintstone is certainly a nod to stardust, or how we all come from the stars.

Perhaps there was life, before life as we know it, similar to the Everlasting Dragons in Dark Souls, that saw the coming of some starry catastrophe that change life altogether forever.

I say this because apparently the original astrologer was a giant. Goliath in the original text. Perhaps it was one of those insanely massive titans we see lying around here. Perhaps they all died to it. Maybe life was born of their corpses.

The Elden Ring might have also hijacked the star system itself and forced it into becoming geocentric rather than heliocentric. You’ll notice that the sun is far and distant and replaced with the warm sustaining brilliance of the Erdtree. The moon is also way too close.

Pretty much everything in the game is a fantastical rendition of real world stuff. The dragon culture was the dinosaur age, the crucible knights are all named after periods like the Ordivician and Silurian eras. The primeval current is the milky way spiral arms. The erdtree era was the Greek Halcyon days, the GO and GO fundamentalism are the Roman empire splitting into Holy See.

If you have a general historical knowledge base you can see the references straight up.

Hornsent were the Gaelic subhumans as viewed thru the lens of the romans. Literally everything is a fantasy of history. They are just the general pagan rabble that the romans looked down on for being debased. In ER the debasement is dialed to 11.

There are overlaps but the architecture and words used make them Levantine/Semite-coded too. With a smide of China stuff just for flair [dancing dragon and the yellow turban armor on hornsent warriors]

They were exterminated with a similar premise but this is where your "it's all 1-1" bit falters. It's not 1-1. It's just very very openly inspired and similar.

Moon worshippers. In ER they take the split between moon/sun worship of antiquity and change it by replacing the sun with the elden tree and has its own lore on why the sun was replaced in this split. Moon worship in antiquity were related to Selene (goddess of the moon), Artemis (goddess of the hunt and the night - nox create the Night), and Hekete (triple goddess representing witches - witch culture in ER is moon based).

Totemism and shamanism. The hornsent believe that spirits inhabit everything and they want to control it. Their stonkest warriors can house spirits of very strong things inside them because they are willing participants in that process.

Are you saying not!Moses (Elden John) came after Marika? I like the Tower of Babel motives, and I’ve always seen it as that, but I keep thinking that what the Hornsent are (were) doing wasn’t the original Tower of Babel. I think the idea of making a god, a big tree, and a towering civilization was an ancient one. They’re emulating the Rauh.
>>
>>554128351

Moses is Moses because he’s leading a migration of his people. The Numen. Who came from a foreign place.

Is no one remembering the Numen boats slash coffins in the DLC? Elden John was from somewhere else.

They likely came with the Elden Beast all things considered. Visitors “from another world”.

I don't think so. I think Elden John coexisted with old gods like Fulghor served. He's more like an early Sumerian where maybe Horsent are more late Babylon.

Numen is just the name for someone who has high runic power or potential. It’s why runes eventually become Numen runes. All Lords and Heroes are Numen. Marika is the most Numen of all. In that sense, it is perhaps accurate to claim that they came from another world, when runes are themselves from the Ring/Beast, an alien visitor.

The Hellenistic period overlaps with the rise of Rome. The Greeks were notorious seekers of wisdom and knowledge in all its forms. You’re mistaken in that they didn’t seek out the most foreign of information. Pythagoras learned from Egyptians and Babylonians and Persians and Chaldeans and even Indian Brahmin.

The Greeks copied the Persians and the Egyptians. The Romans copied Greeks. Romans also copied Persians too. Rates of copying were either barely noticeable to largely noticeable.

This isn’t really odd since that’s exactly what the Greeks and the Romans did. They even spliced their gods with foreign gods, and one of them (Thoth+Hermes) became the dominant force of esoteric thought in the west.

The Greeks were learners OF their own way. Philosophy means a love of wisdom and learning. They took (learned) what (wisdom) interested them, and then did what they wanted from there. This is why you see random high technology in antiquity. It’s usually because of some Greek person who compiled esoteric knowledge and made a thing. Like the Antikythera mechanism or the automated servant of Philo. They didn’t it because they could.

Heliocentrism is a different topic. No one in ER is heliocentric they they think the center of reality is the primeval current or there is no center because the GW left so reality is devoid of meaning.

A heliocentric worldview is that the world revolves around something, namely the sun. A geocentric worldview is that everything revolves around it. The sun is far off and distant. The Erdtree has taken up its position, and the farther you go from the Erdtree the colder it gets.
>No one in ER is heliocentric they they think the center of reality is the primeval current

You’re using one example and trying to say it was the norm. *Some* of the Greeks built on what other cultures did yes and they likewise created and did shit barely anyone even had a conception of. They practically invented the fields of taxonomy, aerodynamics, algebra, automata theory, etc.. One or two thinkers does not change that most of the sum of their achievements and knowledge were largely gained from scratch. Romans on the other hand openly acknowledged that a large sum of what they knew and possessed was derived from earlier peoples who inhabited earlier Italy like the Etruscans and much of what they knew about warfare and architecture was derived from Greeks, though they regarded them as lesser in turn. They even got chain mail from the Gaelics. Roman ability to take and incorporate at a whim is widely famous. The analogy simply works better for them.

Nope. Just the Carians. Life and fate does not go back to normal once you kill Radahn. It only affects Ranni and Sellen. In fact, the lore states the Carians gave fate over to the order of gold when they married into its family. Radahn didn’t halt the stars though, since day/night happens.

Its literal stars. The people of ER are idiots and don't fully understand cosmology. Very powerful aliens that want to rule over them are in control of their fate in a literal sense so they've developed a cowed philosophy that reading those stars influences fate. The stars they actually fear turn out to be aliens bombarding their planet in meteors.

Ancient people in our reality used to think a red comet would be a harbinger of ill omens and saw it as a red serpent coming to get them.

It’s a whirlpool, or spiral of rivers. The primeval current is the flow of physics and cosmic star stuff. Even nebulae. It’s a SPIRAL galaxy (this is an actual galaxy type), and what shape is associated with life and the primeval current? The spiral.

The analogy is absolutely not flawed. The Greeks dove into literally anything that interested them and made do with it, likely even do better with it. Pythagoras didn’t actually originate the Pythagorean theorem; he was simply the most successful with it. The Babylonians and the Greeks and the Indians did it before him. The Greeks were simply the best learners around, and did more with what they were given, or took/learned.

If you think I’m downplaying the Greeks rather than pointing out their passion for knowledge, you’re mistaken. I’m also pointing out that these bases of knowledge didn’t happen in a vacuum, and the Greeks absolutely did look to even earlier cultures and civilizations and orders of intellectuals, like the Persian Magi.

I just gave you multiple examples of fields they pioneered that had either no or largely no equivalent anywhere else. This was the norm. Pythagoras Theorem and anything to do with math was obviously the exception, since of course they didn’t invent math or anything. Most Greeks did not have the resources or access to knowledge that Pythagoras, Aristotle, etc. did. The latter was literally mentor to Alexander the Great for gods sake and travelled the known world.
They were just as much innovators and fundamental basis providers as the Persians, Chinese, etc. were. That’s my point. Romans were the ones who were drinking in the world around them at literally every point and turn, but of course they too came up with their own accomplishments, just not without help.

You’re contradicting yourself. They can’t be stars, as in LITERAL balls of plasma and gas that can sometimes exceed the size of planets, if they were also aliens. Then they’re not stars. Radahn being able to do something like that is grossly out of line with everything we know about him. It would be like if I had the power to destroy moons with a thought and then still struggled to fight against a modern military. You need to look at the lore within the context of the game and story presented to us. Hun being able to hold up interstellar bodies with his own abilities would be literally setting breaking. If you want to say they were aliens, then that’s another story.

You DO know that Aristotle was an idiot right? I’m not saying he wasn’t smart, but he was also an idiot. He thought flies had four legs (did he think them rubbing their hands counted as arms?). He thought the head’s function was not to think (he thought the heart did that!), but to cool down the body, or a heat sink for the heart.

Then you have ‘the father of the atom’, also an Ancient Greek, who just knew shit got smaller and smaller, and smaller.

Self inflicted trauma with some consequences of his own actions. Anons warned him not to do this when he set himself up for it like an hour ago. Don't know what he thought would happen these lorefags love talking about this esoteric shit.

>>554132278
>Most Greeks did not have the resources or access to knowledge that Pythagoras, Aristotle, etc. did. The latter was literally mentor to Alexander the Great for gods sake and travelled the known world.
No, but the ones that mattered actually travelled and learned shit. Philosophers back then wrestled and travelled and went to fucking war.
>>
>>554131275
>The stars even literally fall when Radahn dies!
Not all of them. Just the ones he stopped, perhaps the ones closest nearby.
>>
>>554133016
Or the ones that aren't stars but actually aliens in rocks. Its very obvious that not every single star up in the sky is actually an alien in a rock. To us that is, the people in the game are pretty regressive because of theology.

According to some sources, on a visit to the Street of Sages, where Hierodas was living, Radahn asked Hierodas what he could do for him as the philosopher sat by the road reading a book. Hierodas replied “Try finger, but hole”. He meant it quite literally. He needed for nothing and Radahn was blocking the Erdtree’s light. It is a statement typical of Hierodas, the ultimate minimalist, who valued simplicity and authenticity above all.

Radahn likely flexed his territory magically and the retarded space bugs interpreted it as a dangerous predator to avoid, lol. It’s probably not that complicated. He likely defended Caelid from them. Same as how they destroyed the Eternal, just with no protector.
>>
>>554133302
>He likely defended Caelid from them. Same as how they destroyed the Eternal, just with no protector.
How many Astels is too many? Perhaps Radahn got lucky.
>>
>>554133302
Could have been simple as his action showed a definitive 'no' to the control so they knew they weren't going to waltz in like before. Radahn is autism incarnate. He understands metaphysics like gravity wells with emotion instead of knowledge.
In a setting where everyone is an idiot that can be duped into believing bullshit he oopsed into a way to reject them in a way you can't reason with. And that would be terrifying if your ponzi scheme grift as been working like a charm for generations.

Not very skilled and too lazy to make a Nioh General. And no one bothers to open a thread either. But, man. Nioh 1 is clunky. Stance switching gets points for being stylish but is more situational in Nioh 1, since Omnyo is fucking busted in the game, and makes non-magic builds kind of boring and uninteractive with the game's systems. Don't even get me started on LW, which is still broken as hell even in the latest patch. Everything in the game is clunky. Nioh 2 and later games overwhelm you, but it's better to be overwhelmed than to play an entire playthrough to get the most out of the game. And even then, the game is still slow. I'm trying deathless because it's less boring than deathless Bloodborne, and I'm starting to get burnout from the game. When you start taking the game seriously, every problem is stressful. Now I understand people complaining about “ganks” in Soulsborne games. More about being consistent

>They can’t be stars, as in LITERAL balls of plasma and gas
On that topic. What IS glintstone energy, anyway? Does it burn? Does it radiate a temperature? Is it cold? Comets have an association with ice, which gives them their streak, or tail. Perhaps the damage it inflicts is a cold burn.

It’s a little misleading, “aerodynamics” as we understand them apparently is agreed to not have really existed until the 17th~ century so I doubt it, not that Greeks were flying planes or anything but what they were doing with it was just about the height of what could be done with it. But that’s why I said “or largely no”.
>>554132638
Ancient thinkers rarely had an equally advanced understanding of every field they dabbled in, yes. Needless to say Aristotle isn’t remembered for his theories on where and why poop was stored. The Father of the Atom also posited that different combinations and arrangements of “atomos” explained all phenomena which is pretty close to the case (ironically dismissed by Aristotle).

Answer me this.
What are moons really?

If they’re physical objects, they shouldn’t be able to overlap, and yet Rennala and Rellana’s moons overlap, or ‘nestle’. And we find the shards of the broken moon of the Nox. Was it an artificial moon?

Physical or non-physical?
>>
>>554134652
Outer gods that choose not to smash down into the planet and want to be passive observers instead. They step in in the end because shit has spiraled waaaaay out of control.
You could make an argument that they aren't doing it for mankind but actually doing it so they can observe without it being tainted by something else.
>>
>>554134652
The moons represent the caster. The twin moons symbolize the Carian sisters who were close. Very close. There is a frigid despair to Ranni, and so her moon is cold and dark. If I had to make a rather adventurous guess, the monarch of the Nox who symbolized the black moon was probably slain. This symbolizes the destruction of the black moon and the fall of the eternal. Ranni is its (the dark moon’s) reviver.
>>
Is Raider's default dormant just colossals or are great axes and great hammers included?
>>
>>554135106
What about the snowy crone? Didn’t she teach Ranni about the icy moon? I’m still torn on whether she’s the third sister, or if she is their mother.
>>
>>554134894
Is that why ranni's mentor begs her not to get involved?
>>
>>554134894
They value intellectual ingenuity over that or blindest faith. In such a way, those who take notice of them are rewarded. Ranni’s mentor still implies they’re dangerous.
>>
>>554135239
All 3 merged into the same pool.
If you use dormant Colossal/GA/GH it's pretty easy to notice the difference.
>>
>>554135285
Mostly. Last time a moon enjoyer got involved the nox culture tried to make great runes and caused the Night and had their patron dark moon killed. The snow crone was sort of like the hornsent and chose to cuck out of the be as gods mindset because she saw it fuck the world over. Ranni is at a point where she doesn't care she thinks this farce has to end.

I 100% guarantee you Radagon was the one to suggest banning primeval current shit due to it not meshing all that well with his tree shit. “Nooo blue rocks are baaad, a gold tree is coooler”, and it’s likely due to the fact that with glintstone you don’t actually need to resort to the roots of the Erdtree to live forever… you just need to be a massive dick (stealing bodies).

Pretty sure that’s why he gave them the gold egg too, to make up for their lack of old longevity. Replacing the old with the new. Or maybe not. It’s possible he just planted the egg there the moment he left as a sort of failsafe. I just suspect he had brought the rune of rebirth with him when he married into the Carian family.

Ive never really felt the need for the starting sorcery relics, pebble is still one of the best spells in the game, and unlike incants you can reliably find something that is useful because nothing but the moth is significantly resistant to magic. Its really too bad you cant use the starting spell relics with non recluse/rev characters.

I agree. Unless you're going all on one of the starting sorc schools there's no point. Meanwhile any rev build will benefit from beast claw start

None of the starting sorceries are worth it, in the first place pebble is a solid starting spell and as a Recluse you're quickly upgrading into stronger spells, if you was to use a starting spell relic it says you're willing to stick with this spell or you have a spell school in mind and the spell choices fail at both.

You can parry caligo alot better than I expected

>>554140986
triple status was the go-to build before double balancers, you could do 5k damage in 3 seconds with just r1s, even more if you had a better weapon than the starting katana

Just last game, I died suddenly to an explosion. I was confused at first. Then I realized the wylder used his fiery follow up near explosive barrels. He could have taken out the whole team.

>>554144320
I'm not taking my relics off. I am Creasy O'Toole
>>
>>554144364
Very nice.
I'm climbing up D3 myself. But so far I've been lucky to get base bosses. I'm afraid what would happen if I got a string of ED bosses. Especially Libra.
>>
>>554140456
Stacking crit damage on Executor is pretty pointless.
Improved Crits +0 is 18% extra damage on crits only, Physical +4 is 15% for all physical damage, and the Suncatcher deals pure phys damage on everything, so you already don't want to run it on your deep relics.
Then you have to spare a slot on your regular relics for Night Invaders, which leaves you with two remaining slots.
You could use ED Adel + another crit relic on these slots, but Double Balancers will basically lead to the same damage in the end due to all the boosted Suncatcher L2s, while also allowing you to deal 50% more damage against the eventual enemies that you can't crit.

>just saw there was a NR patch
>increased FP cost for beast claw
Noooo it's over.
>>
>>554144984
It goes from 10 to 13fp. It's nothing. I'm still not using more than a couple shards during nightlords
>>
I really don't get why people recommend +magic damage over +affinity for recluse
it's a difference between x1.1 and x1.12, at best it's 6% more damage
in exchange for not being able to use incants or even the magma spells

like sure, it won't happen always but if you could have had god damn elden stars vs hotdogs that handily beats out that 6%

If I see an Evergaol, I'll open it.
Simple as.
>>
>>554144983
I mixed up ISA and Phys +4 numbers, it's just 12%, but the point still stands.
Swapping one Balancers relic for ED Adel could be pretty good though since it has both Crit +1 and +0.
>>
stop fucking dodging troon merchant

>going to have a day one on my winstreak because terr is retard who alt f4s in the walk in
Thanks
>>
>>554145683
even then, you're not guaranteed to get your spell early and that 6% isn't really going to matter as much vs dealing 30% more damage on that giant's flame seal you picked up off the starter church

even if you're running a school type build, the faster you finish early POI's the more loot drops you get which in turn means the faster you'll get that spell you're looking for

I did not play with a venus. Pretty close Dreggy but we lost at the end.

Well they probably changed their name because i seriously doubt more than one or two dumbasses with fake chinese profiles are actually queueing our dead as bricks password right now
>>
i crashed, sec
>>
>>554149309
I dunno, I checked their profiles after our game out of curiosity and they were both Chinese. One of them disconnected for half the game and it made some enemies invisible for me until they came back.

maybe terr is fine now but honestly he has intentionally threw and griefed so many past games the dude is never getting an unblock from me
>>
>>554150008
I have played a grand total of one game on the tag(been lurking these threads for a long while but I mostly play with randos) so I don't think I'm one to post profiles and tell people to block them, sorry.
>>
>>554144236
thats nice sweaty but ut doesn't run scythes
>>
i wonder what erg means in chinese
>>
>>554150162
why did no one else in your game post in the thread
how come you couldnt post any details about your teammates
weird
>>
>>554150352
Because I turned the game off after losing to dreglord in d4 with two chinks? It was a rev named youwaijf and a recluse named yan I think.
>>
How do you find people you played with through Steam?
>>
>>554150579
On results screen click on the stick and then hover over your teammates and hold select. It opens their steam profile. These guys had Chinese names and also Chinese people in their friends list so I'm pretty sure it wasn't larping or anything like that.
