So is the whole point of the Dark Souls series (other than the journey is meaningful by virtue of itself) is that life is pointless and ultimately an aberration?

you can't prove that we were ever primordial sludge

It's more that death is inevitable no matter what you do and trying to stop it will only make it worse.

Then throw yourself into a vat of acid

Your word "improve" is open to discussion.

It improved at being more able to want

>literally citing wikipedia
>scientism
you presuppose that scientists actually know what they're doing and are being truthful about it, for which there is little evidence. 50% of peer-reviewed studies are fake.
>inb4 YOU DARE QUESTION SCIENCE?!???????
yes, i do when there's a history of proven fakery.

Unless you go full UBERMENSCH like the end of DaSII and move out of the cycle of link, decay, link to a realm where undead curse becomes a miracle thanks to Vendrick's blessing and you are literally unable to die as you create a new world free from this cycle

> 50% of peer-reviewed studies are fake
citation required

>scientists ... know what they are doing
lets call it an educated guess

and by all means question everything

The citations aren't from wikipedia; it's two peer reviewed papers on the fossil record.
>"The papers are fake! Fuck you!"
The 50% figure isn't about fake papers, it's about data is shown to have some empirical flaws. Geology isn't a field typically affected and the second paper has over 40 citations, so it has been thoroughly reviewed and corroborated.
Either way, even a chance of evidence, no matter if there is a chance of empirical flaw, is better then your complete lack of evidence.

Really enjoyed this aspect of II.
That's more so an idea in III, but they don't go all out on this idea unfortunately.

He's talking about another paper that indicates that 50% of papers could contain a single flaw. The "they're fake" shit is something he cooked up in his head from Jesus camp.

Well user, supposedly the very first organisms to exist on earth were stromatolites. Before they came along, the earth was covered in hot shallow ocean and in it were the components for life (certain elements and molecules). It was a soup or sludge that cooked and reacted in a way which eventually begot the first life. That's how it's told in most geology textbooks.

Not before I throw you faggot

look it up, the studies are completely unreproducable. you can have a peer reviewed study say anything you want - so you're right, question everything.
>lets call it an educated guess
educated by what measure? the fact that "scientists" get away with fakery proves that you can't take them at their word. academia in general has little to do with actual learnedness and more to do with ass kissery, money and politics.
>MUH PEER-REVIEWED PAPERS
50% chance that there is fakery afoot in both of them, lol. the fact is that even if they are telling the truth as they believe it, there's no way for them to prove it: ultimately, it's guesswork and our understanding of the world is in a constant state of change based on our current technology. either way what you cited says nothing about primordial soup (which is also just a theory). i find it funny how offended you are that someone would question scientists... it truly is the new religion.
>The 50% figure isn't about fake papers, it's about data is shown to have some empirical flaws
that's a very funny way of saying "50% chance of lies/incompetency that renders the paper largely or completely invalid".
everything you just said is guesswork/theorizing. i want to know the truth too, i just can't trust science anymore. there's "science" that says trannies are a natural part of life therefor we must accept them.. peer-reviewed studies "prove" it too!

I love how you're willing to be cynical about primordial microorganism life, but your answer to that is a deity with literally zero evidence. Aliens being on Mars is nonironically a prospect of greater likelihood than God in Heaven. Since we have zero evidence of God at all, the stupid bacteria rock on Mars wins.

science

The 50% isn't faked; it's flawed data, ranging from everything definitions, models, presentation of negatives, outcomes, etc... and it's not 50% of the data. Secondly, it is more applicable to new data in the last ten years. Furthermore according to the actual paper itself:
>In this framework, a research finding is less likely to be true when the studies conducted in a field are smaller; when effect sizes are smaller.
--the fields effected most are dumb shit like tranny studies and sociology. Hard science is less evocative of these sorts of errors and it is a large field where studies as typically corroborated and found to be in-line with one another and based on EVIDENCE and not studies.

What if life on Mars came from micro bacterial life on Earth (created by God)

How low does your IQ have to be to consider life a gift? Maybe you are a privileged parasite who gets handed everything but tons of people out there have bad luck and get nothing but suffering in life.

The idea in 3 is that "all good things must end". It was also a meta commentary about how the series felt fresh in the beginning but now it's "rotting" from repeating the cycle too much.
The whole thing about the girl painting a new world was a reference to how the creators of the souls series need to make a new kind of game. She needed to see fire (inspiration) one more time to be able to do it.

Well, no shit. 'Peer review' is a masturbatory practice popularized by social """scientists""" in order to make it seem like they are actually doing real science despite never seeming to be able to recreate a single experiment with statistically similar results in the known history of their field.

I have no problem with gods or religion, I'm just reasonably cynical and doubtful of them. If the data is proven wrong and god is proven right tomorrow, great. I'm not worried about it frankly.

spotted the bitter atheist. the issue in life isn't suffering, it's how you react to it. you act like a bitch, therefore you are one.

Good thing geology isn't an experiment in that case. Studies and experiment models can always be wonky... empirical fields aren't.

>Undead Curse is really the Curse of Want

>Primordial Serpents are also referred to as avatars of greed and gluttony, aspects derived from the base emotion of Desire, ie Want
>Primordial Serpents are simply Dragons that have been afflicted with the Curse of Want, the Undead Curse

In other words, Aldia pretty much wasted all his time on Dragon research when Dragons themselves were just as susceptible to the Curse as any other being was

Furthermore, people who believe the Curse was Gwyn's fault are literal Dark-fags that foolishly think they wouldn't be anything but feedgrain for Serpents and Insects in an age of Dark--Gwyn was a dick, but the Curse was around before he even threw himself into the Flame, and realistically is actually at it's worst when the Flame starts to fade, indicating it's root in Darkness
By being Undead and cursed to be remade again and again, Serpents and Insects have a food supply that is too resilient to be wiped out but too mindless to fight back

>he thinks using the world "geology" proves we used to be soup
what kinda soup? mushroom perhaps?

Pure data tells me life is a gift. Endless beautiful ecstasy. Everything I want, given to me by virtue of hard work, and the love of others. Truly life is good for those who are not lazy or retarded.

Also I like videogames.

I didn't call anyone soup.
Geology has never been commandeered by politics because it's not a political field and the study of the fossil record and radiocarbon started in the 40's finding organisms millions of old even then. You're actively trying to cloud the issue by implying that sciences are compromised. Hard sciences aren't effected, and the figure you're using, the paper that you believe (that is in-and-of-itself a social and study/sample-based paper) says this is an issue in smaller social fields.
You need to argue in good faith and not dishonestly.

eastern philosophy is self refuting garbage nonsense, just peak nihilism. buddha was a rich kid, thats the only way you can actually engage in it, completely financial security.
lol you're so bitter it's funny to witness

You're being too literal. The curse isn't LITERAL want, it's that being alive means one is always wanting. Nashandra wanted to covet the First Flame instead of being content to live by Vendrick's side.

All available information suggests evil and stupid people get to enjoy life more (business school parasites, networkers, actors, models, athletes, etc), and all of the people who actually support civilization (laborers) suffer endlessly with no payout at the end.

>still minimizing
face it, science is your religion.

Hello

What is "world geology"?
And does it prove? No. but nothing can be proven at all ever, so I suppose that's fine... but going forward we use the best data available to us and try to learn more instead of sitting on our laurels.

>empirical fields aren't wonky
Chemists were discovering the weight of the electron in a charge-to-mass ratio at the same time they still believed light propagated through the presence of a luminiferous aether

>nothing can be proven at all ever
this is an amazing line to use when you want to announce losing a debate, lmao. you just ceded that science is pointless (which it isn't)

We were made as a food-source for a Higher Being that feeds off of our deaths not much unlike a soulfeeder in this very series, all our developments and discoveries have already been done in the past, our existence is cyclical.

what are you basing this off of? something you heard in a video game or on r/atheism?

Frenzy
Curse
Terror

Nothing, it's just something I think is cool yet sad, so I'd like it to be true.

You're the one minimizing.
You're saying some data in some fields is corrupted thus all data is corrupted.
This would also imply half of all religious scripture is corrupted--arguably more since it was politically and motive driven.
I'm not particularly against god, that's the best part. Religion is a scam, but belief isn't.

positive people don't even deserve to be called intolerable

It's a modern application of deist theology to adapt for contemporary events such as abortion movement.

you actually like frenzy? why?

Who's losing? In all debates you vote on the greater likelihood based on evidence to which you have none and can't present any. If you want to say "well, you can't prove this" you might as well go full Cartesian since you're so willing to dismiss anything resembling evidence just to keep an arbitrary belief "in the game."

The fuck? We all get nothing but suffering. It's a cold, indifferent universe waiting to kill us all. That's not nihilism, it's fact. Worms eat the rich and the poor. But life is a gift because we all have the ability to make it better. Maybe not by much, maybe in paradigm shattering ways. You honestly think Martin Luther grew up thinking he'd break the most powerful organization of all time? Or that George Washington signed up for military service to topple the largest empire in history? And those are equally moves on the behalf of good as giving a sandwich to a bum or helping an old lady reach high up at the grocery store.

I help people when I can, I don't tear others down. I try to teach my kids to not be assholes and I don't let my shitty lot in life sour me. I'll never be rich or famous. I barely scrape by. But then my son will laugh or my daughter will hug me and it's worth it. The blood and sweat of my efforts are a gift because I get to be here for them at least a while longer.

Being a bitter little cunt about how hard you have it when the entirety of human history is at your fingertips, you aren't hungry, you aren't scared a warlord is going to butcher you tonight...fuck you pal. You have it better than 99% of every human that ever lived. The poorest people on the planet live better than the average 200 years ago. Get over yourself. Life is great if your head isn't jammed up your bleeding twat.

>He thinks that he got what he has from hard work when tons of people work just as hard or harder and get jack shit.

enough of peer-reviewed studies are fake to a sufficient degree that they cannot be called upon as a source of evidence as readily as you do. at best you could use them as a point of reference... which is not evidence, just a point of view. thats the whole point.
we need to get onto the real issues, like the truth about 9/11, iraq/afghanistan, the moon landing and whatever other government lies we are being fed. since you won't find peer-reviewed studies about any of those things i suppose you find them impossible to question lmao
the fact that society is ruled over by a satanic elite doesn't mean we have to assume their world view

Kuhn theorized about this at length. Science goes through paradigm shifts when a new model is discovered, so you have to throw out a lot of bathwater. That's the thing about science, you change it as you go. We don't use Newtonian physics anymore, but a great deal of what Newton discovered is still around.

Actually when I think about it, Frenzy probably would make more sense in Sekiro since itäs a line of sight thing. It would fit in line with the lite stealth theme. Terror and curse are basically the same thing but at least curse gives you a cool stone statue thing.

Wrong. 50% of papers in obscure social fields about social and gender studies having flaws in the last ten years doesn't invalidate thousands journals that have been written since the 40s about geology and the fossil record. This is active hand-waving and dismissal. There are literally hundreds of thousands of fossil exhibits that corroborate.

If you have to tell people this then isn't it clearly not true? There's a segment of the population for which this is true (parasitic, handsome, lucky, totally worthless), but clearly there were people in the past far happier than the average is now. Clearly it's not necessarily worse to live in a small town in the 1800s than it is to be an average slave nobody in 2019. The reasons for that are numerous.

Having a good life is not respectable in the least, nor is it an indication of having accurate beliefs. Happy people are always either dumb or lucky.

I have been mentally ill my entire life, I have tried to get better tons of times and failed, it wasn't until I started treatment that involves spending 12 hours at a hospital Mondays to Fridays 9 months ago that I understood that I nor any psychologist/psychatrist could have been able to fix this shit.
I'm now 26 years old, I still have at least three years of treatment left until I can start living my life in a proper way
I feel I have been truly cursed and I haven't experienced having free will once I my life, am I fucking alive? Or can life really be absolute dread too?

the fact that you still think a "good life" is about what you believe and not how you feel and how you live says everything about how ignorant you are. i'm probably right in assuming you're a veritable black cloud and wet blanket on everyone around you.

The worst part is your mental illness was most likely caused to you by evil people who will never face justice.

>Why am I a miserable asshole?

>wishful thinking.
It's not wishful thinking: it was in the paper you're citing actually. Smaller experimental fields were the ones being scrutinized. It is mostly healthcare and sociology. Here's the study: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1182327/
The source you're using as the base to attack studies in general cedes that is confined to smaller fields.
>scientism: science as a religion: more wishful thinking
Truly, you're the one that is wishfully thinking since religion is only wishes with not even flawed evidence. The beauty of science is you don't have to due on a hill like a zealot. The fact that you're typing on a machine right now means that science works pretty well all things considered. I hope you don't eat fish on a friday, masturbate, and follow the 21 Sacraments of Paul.
>weird how you don't realize the projection
You have presented nothing to hand-wave frankly. You won't present anything because I don't have to hand-wave it when there will likely be a full debunking out there. Your whole argument is built around a paper that you believe to be true that asserts some science papers are wrong, even though the author cedes it is to a specific place specific fields. Even if 50% is wrong, you don't even need papers. You can just point to the exhibits themselves with their corroborated data.
>again, assuming that scientists know what they're doing and are being truthful about it
Geology is a field where people spend their whole lives looking for things. It's the field with the best chance of finding any evidence of of a deity. It's not a field of sensationalism or social upheaval.
>more hand-waving and dismissal, huh? its people like you that would have burned people like me back in the day :) question everything... EXCEPT science!
That's the beauty of science--you always question it. You think I'm stuck to it, but you're just waiting around for one of Kuhn's scientific revolutions. Only a fool is attached to a belief even in data

>questioning peer-reviewed studies makes you mentally ill

the world's unlucky people want to listen to shit like this, and their only real option is to work to tear down the people who undeservedly have more.

I would run too if I was horse-whipped as bad as you were my plucky friend.
A scientist would hop on the god bandwagon if it ever showed up, but I don't think that'll be happening in the lifetime of this planet. Be well and know this:
Fossils themselves aren't studies--they're raw evidence. And inevitably, that's all that matters.

Thank god you don't need peer-reviewed prove we started as primordial sludge because the fossil record is ion-and-of-itself empirical evidence that we were far predated by organisms that exist today.

lol nice talking to you user. god bless and good night.

the nostrils are plainly visible on the front of its snout, doofus.

>fossil record
do you seriously believe these 2 words prove that we used to be soup?
you as well! =)

>calls other Elliot Rodger incel-type.
>has weird fetish for being burned at the stake while decrying alcohol and being a 9/11 truther.
user... Elliot hated alcohol and was a 9/11 truther.

Don't like these guys fuck you for posting these guys OP I don't like these guys fuck you.

he wants to hurt other people for having a better lot in life and refuses to try and fix anything in his life. he's probably going to rape a woman, he should be in an institution, preventative measure.

Going on good faith, it proves we were the first things here not by a long shot. It also proves that we had hominid ancestors that were not human and they can be traced down to lower mammalia.

how? its not like you touch them and see the history of humanity. the coal dating method or whatever, how do you know that's accurate whatsoever?

carbon dating

the determination of the age or date of organic matter from the relative proportions of the carbon isotopes carbon-12 and carbon-14 that it contains. The ratio between them changes as radioactive carbon-14 decays and is not replaced by exchange with the atmosphere

and its pretty accurate

I could explain it to you, but basically it's measuring radioactive carbon istopes. It is understood to be accurate by basically everyone in every field from physics to chemistry. This is how I'd explain it to a child:
Say you have a water bottle that's a little leaky, and water leaks out constantly. You actively keep the water level up by refilling it all the time.
If you died, no one will refill this water bottle, so the water level will begin to drop. If I know what level you've kept it at, and the rate at which the water level drops, I can tell when you've stopped refilling it, and when you died.
It's the same with carbon dating. Carbon-14 is an isotope of carbon that decays at a known rate. Your sample is considered to have a level of carbon-14 carbon-14 that is in equilibrium with its environment, and this equilibrium is not maintained when the organism dies. By knowing the equilibrium condition and the rate of Ca14 retrograde, you can work back to when the equilibrium ceased to be maintained.

but how do you know its accuraste after hundreds of thousands or millions of years? i would say you dont?

scientists have this down to a .... science as far as telling how fast the carbon decays. soooo testing how much carbon in the fossil they can tell how old the fossil is

but how do they or you know that? its circular reasoning to say "they know"

What a prick you are.

>hurt other people
bringing them down to the level of unprivileged people is hurting them? guess you're admitting your whole world view is stupid.

if you know better than "them" and can prove "them" wrong then publish your findings and win a Nobel prize and shut "them" up forever about carbon dating or just keep posting on an anonymous mongolian horse weaving forum about how you know better

Damn man. Go easy on him.

>larping as a commie on Yea Forums dot com
it was an honest question. if you immediately resort to challenging someone rather than just giving your best explanation, it's a tell that you're wrong and trying to cover up for that.
the fact is that nobody can tell for sure whether or not its possible to detect how old an item is if you go far back enough, there's no telling how variables change the older something is. obviously i won't be able to produce a word salad sprinkled with big sciencey words and thats probably what you're looking for.
i'm more into actual substance than fluff like that, though.
in other words, you don't know and probably neither do them. it's just more guess-work and theorizing...

How do you defend the most worthless people having the best lives? How do you defend an evil dumb person who goes to business school to learn how to be a parasitic shitstain having a better life than even something like a janitor who actually does something useful?

life is unfair, get over it... or dont and just kys. utopian ideologies will never become real no matter how much you sperg. you're no different than all the rapists and pillagers that go back thousands of years, you're just too much of a wimp to actually do anything about it lol.

You buncha nerds. If you want to argue about philosophy or the validity of religion go to Yea Forums. If you want to argue about geological findings go /his/ and /sci/.

It doesn't need big eyes to see. Why evolve big ones?

Rather, those large fake ones are probably a lizard's best trick - extra, intimidating body mass that can be discarded in a pinch.

>rapists and pillagers
not even this user but that is some nice false equivalency you got there

>challenging someone rather than explain
its already been explained how carbon dating works. either you refuse to accept it or don't understand what you're being told. if the former, deal with it, if the later git gud.

>its already been explained how carbon dating works.
nobody explained how they know that it accurately dates things that are supposedly hundreds of thousands of years old or millions... therefore i can only conclude that nobody actually knows this and they're just taking what "seems" like the best explanation, which is not scientific, merely a guess.

you keep calling me useful idiot as if you aren't the useful idiot advocating for government mandated mass theft. people like you will never be happy, it's the endless spiral of communism. all you'll achieve is mass murder (during which the leaders get filthy rich, btw lol). remember the 100+ million.

Humanity improved by wanting "better" wanting "more" has resulted in disaster

>people are idiots for accepting the reality that sometimes things don't always go your way

>half life
so the isotopes decay at a constant rate yes!?
this isotope in question being carbon-14
test for this carbon-14 to see how much there is and you have your answer its not that hard to understand or test for

but how does that prove that something hundreds of thousands of years (or millions) is actually that old? iirc there was a controversy involving carbon dating in that it was actually as accurate as it was first thought to be. this gives you no pause?

Both can be true.

Are buddhist monks dead then?

>give you no pause
isotopes decay. they have a half life. their argument is if its "as old" as they think it is. meaning does it decay as fast as they claim which given a -/+ 5 thousand years per carbon atom its still pretty fucking OLD

Am I crazy, or do the Angel cocoon whatevers look similar to the Abyss Locusts?
Like, they could be divergent paths on some kind of metamorphosis, or maybe one becomes the other?

Attached: A3.png (1280x720, 1.3M)

so the rates of decay were always the same? literally since the "beginning of time" which supposedly is trillions of years ago, or more? how would any human that ever existed know that? our recorded history only goes back a few thousand years, actual science even less than that...

>always the same
as far as we can tell and test/observe yes its pretty accurate. we have made atomic clocks more accurate than any other clocks possible based on this principle alone.

Don’t care for communism, but lucky people deserve to lose everything.

i think there is a disconnect here. so we have only been observing this half life for what, decades? 100 years? you're basically saying that we can know something seemingly unknowable based on a few decades of observation... it doesn't really jive.
>as far as we can tell
this is what i don't like about "established truths" in science, they always seem to lead to questions answered in this manner - "we think" - "likely know" - i'm believe we know a whole lot less than we think. i wish more people would be up front with the "we believe" part of what they say is objectively true
why?

Just because their lucky? Also what does communism have to do with anything involving the fact that sometimes life sucks ass?

>established truths
science isn't written in stone, its not a holy manuscript that must be obeyed. the laws of gravity or motion aren't actual laws if you can defy them or prove them wrong you aren't going to jail.

you should tell the science community that. people lose their jobs, income, status and honors for opposing the popular narrative. they guy who discovered the double helix was punished for making some fleeting remarks about human biodiversity... it's basically a religion at this point to most people

capitalism is literally destroying the planet

the locusts do say that they're linked to humans, and the lower half of angels resemble something from an insect rather than a human

Well, Shira does bitch at the Ashen One for his "shameless yearning", so I guess that concept carried over.

So what was the Want?

I'm not claiming to be a scientist or historian,I barely passed high school. I'm not going to argue that there isn't shitty things that happen in academia because there is(fuck those cunts) but at some point either test it yourself and show your findings or stop with the tinfoil tier assertions.

Well, the whole theme of 3 is how festering and rotten things got because its been perpetuated forcefully instead of allowing the cycle to move.

Lol you're very passive aggressive to call it tin-foil hattery. you literally just said "test it yourself and show your findings or stop talking about it". why would i test it? i don't even believe that the results can be proven because there are unknown variables at play. to believe in the carbon dating method is to make some pretty serious leaps of faith.
i can't imagine being annoyed by someone asking the simple questions of "how" and "why".

why do you want to know?

Since Gwyin trying to prolong the age of fire is what caused all the suffering, I would guess the message is that trying to cheat time and avoid change is pointless, you cant turn back the clock or change the past, and life will always go on, with or without you.

i have been and it's endearing. they just want to know stuff :)
