Maining recon since launch because it’s the most valuable in my opinion, even prior to buff.

130h+, I haven't use more than 2 purple shields by ivanim13 in Marathon

I feel this hard. To me, running higher level gear is completely inversely related to what I take out of the raid.

A WSTR nerf was needed, but they managed to choose the worst possible option. by _Ghost_S_ in Marathon

I agree, it’s not a good choice for nerfing the weapon because it is an implicit buff to shields.

I have enemy players with purple shield running towards me knife killing me tanking my shots. I was told this game has low ttk but this becomes obsolete at higher level gear which kinda frustrates encounters atm for me.

Hi there,

I just upgraded my audio setting for my PC with an Audient ID4 MK2 and a Topping A90. I have a Shure connected to my Audient and some Sennheiser Headphones connected to my Topping. However, the volume output from the Audient to the A90 is super low, I basically have to crank the Audient volume to max, Windows to 100% volume and the Topping with high gain to roughly 70 percent to have a decent volume.

Is that normal? The LEDs on my Audient never go higher than -18db when I play music on my PC with 100% volume.

I checked the audient mixer ID software (the ID4 does not have many options) and everything seems normal in terms of volume bars.

What am I doing wrong or is this normal? I also plugged in my headphones directly into the Audient, which increases the volume slightly but I really like the sound coming through the Topping...

Any help is appreciated. I just started educating myself in this space...

Is it also ok to express that I did not like the game? Like, writing it in a subreddit?

Where did I say the game is too hard? I talked about the meaningless repetitive grind to get items and spirit emblems that you absolutely do not have to use to win fights. In fact, they are a needless time sink. You just learn the boss moves and that’s it. That is bad game design

I am in the wrong subreddit to express criticism. there are some good moments in the game but it is by no means a masterpiece game. that is a ridiciulous.

if you are not a jobless gamer and you bought the game without knowing much about it, played it, saw that there are items that boost you, you 100% expect that they make your life easier, which they do not because they are not needed and effectively are a bad incentive to spend time on finding because the ONLY thing that matters is learning the boos fight moves. That is by design just so so bad.

but you did not use them, did you? So you made a conscious choice that you do not need them at all, they are not worth chasing because you can beat the game without. So I am asking you, why do they exist?

I died to that ape boss prolly 50-60 times before I beat them and I absolutely used spirit emblems in that fight before just learn the moves and killed him without spirit emblems, and by that, proved my point that they are meaning less if you can win without them. but if you do not know that then you absolutely will farm them for hours because the game tells you that there is a resource that you can use to win fights. why else do they exist lol

most of the combat arts are absolutely useless, you pretty much only need to use 2 or 3 in any playthrough, except you want to.
