There are lots of reasons why this is a boon for trump but here’s one:
Failed assassination attempts make your political opponents impotent.
From this point forward in the campaign Biden has to hold trumps assassins accountable and use state resources to condemn the actions taken against trump. Effectively your opponent has to support you otherwise they look like they are consenting to the assassination attempt.
What can the Biden campaign really say to counter this narrative? ‘Hey you probably shouldn’t have invited violence because you’ll reap what you sow’ - that’s terrible strategy.
Instead they have to condemn all political violence, ensure trumps safety and effectively congratulate him for surviving.
Bad days for Biden’s campaign. No worthy challenger to Biden will take the mantle now.
Of all nuclear powers France is top of my list to actually use nuclear weapons first.
Never fuck with the French.
They lost 1 war after centuries of successful military campaigns and now people associate them with the white flag. They were a super power. There’s a reason everyone on the planet knows what a croissant is.
I had a terrible time with DAO until I read one thing that helped improve the whole game:
‘Get Wynne’
Once you unlock her character you will actually be able to progress at a reasonable rate without incredible headache allowing you to enjoy more of the story.
I broke through the exact same situation you had and finished the game beyond what most Hollow Knight players will achieve just so I can legitimately criticise this game that so many people apparently love.
You’ve picked out the exact same mechanic that I also criticise. It wastes the players time and is anti-fun.
I’d also add that the map mechanic is also terrible.
My fun factor increased 10x when I found a hollow knight map online to use that had key locations marked. Ironically it was a very soft touch map that just gave general guidance without too many spoilers and this improved my experience of the game.
I’d question whether hollow knight is really a skill issue on your part.
I’ve done the ‘path of pain’ and I still don’t understand why people love the game so much.
It has solid combat, true, but some of the fundamental game mechanics (like save points and the map system) are designed to pad the game time and frustrate the player. Its poor design and the fact they weren’t called out on it is disappointing.
Making a save point 40 seconds from a difficult boss fight doesn’t make me or any player git gud. It’s needlessly frustrating.
One of many reasons; people are shift workers and keep different hours and don’t want to disturb each others sleep when alarms go off/they get out of bed.
