Broadsword: The Proof That Dark Souls Is All About Skills, Not Power

I am loving my broadsword. Extremely easy to be overlooked, this is one of the most basic of all straight swords and the starting weapon for the knight class. Just like its name, the sword is broad, almost gladius-like. Its downside are its short range and absence of thrust attack. But I love thrust attack! In fact, my main weapon in Dark Souls 2 was the Drangleic Sword, which power attack is the thrust. And the power attack was pretty much what I used all the time as if it was a regular attack. So I'm not surprised to see that many players have overlooked the Broadsword and go for Longsword instead, in favor of the thrust. Then why am I loving the broadsword instead? Because of the speed; it's perfect weapon for combos. As of now, my broadsword has been ascended to +10.

Great News! Lag Is No Longer a Legitimate Reason to Die in Dark Souls!

Here's a short but joyful post! Christmas present came early to me this year! Leading up to this point, if anyone who plays Dark Souls on the PC complains that they die because of lag, you better believe it. For once, this is more of a reason than an excuse, and it is legit. However recently, Durante; the guy who came up with the fix for the lag that the Dark Souls PC port has been suffering from; released a new version of the fix here. This is probably the smallest form of update I ever downloaded for a video game but it is also the one that I appreciate the most!

Finally Made It Through Winter in Don't Starve

Last July, after having been playing the survival game Don't Starve long enough (two years, to be exact), I finally pulled my off long-time objective: to survive the winter. Perhaps now is a good time to reflect what I experienced and how I survived such an amazing ordeal (hehehehe). How come surviving winter can be this hard, you ask?
