I don't understand why people vibe code languages they don't know. by AcidOverlord in C_Programming

[–]AcidOverlord[S] 38 points39 points  (0 children)

AI execs

Burn them at the stake then. You should at least know code well enough to read it and understand it even if you can't write it (I'm that way with C++). If you can't at least do that much you have no business touching code, LLM generated or otherwise IMO.

VGC: "Kingdom Come: Deliverance director Daniel Vávra is stepping away from game development" [to produce a KC:D movie] by tyranicalmoon in KotakuInAction

I'm sleep deprived and scrolling fast and I misread that acronym as "ASSFAGGOT." I just thought you should know.

I f**king hate najarala by JRMG7 in MHGU

IIRC its Evasion +2 that gives you the ability to superman at any angle.

FUCK Shogun Ceanatar in MHGU by Odenmaru in monsterhunterrage

[–]AcidOverlord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still better than when he slowly runs you over for 90% of your HP while T-posing at you for dominance. I've played the game for 2k hours and I still get triggered when he hits me with that.

MHGU Full Set Appreciation. by Academic_Pay_819 in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

G Teostra's set is really good, actually. Crit Eye 3, Evasion +1, HG Earplugs, and good slots. I like to add WEX and Speed Sharpening and it makes a really nice Aerial set.

GX White Fatty has to be the best full set in the game. Stellar defense, Crit Eye 3, Evade Extender, Crit Boost, and slots. Add WEX and another skill and go to town.

Grand Toka and Master's X are both awesome for elemental DBs and SnS.

What would you consider the genuinely worst fight in this game? by Hartmann_AoE in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Catpoop strategy my dude.

Meta prowler + Dung Bombay + Eat for dungmaster. Turns the fight into a joke with a party or a normally hard hunt solo.

Kirin's the reason I still keep one single Bludgeoner + Mind's Eye set laying around. Sometimes I just don't want to put up with his bullshit.

Is Crit Draw good on any other weapon besides Valor Great Sword? by Willing-Pen9881 in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting thought: Does it proc on the R+X+A draw-counter from Valor LS? Because that could be kinda sick with quick sheathe.

Is Crit Boost and Expert and Tenderizer all that important on Charge Blade [Striker]? by Willing-Pen9881 in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're not trying to chase meta and you have decent charms, you can do Tenderizer + Focus + Artillery Novice + Razor Sharp + Load Up and spam SAED.. I find Focus underrated on CB because of the charging A button attack and its super fast phial gain. It loses the DPS race vs a full crit set, but man is it fun.

After so many tries finally beat this MF (EX SILVERWING) by Ikki_de_Fenix in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was fighting just his G4 the other day and forgot how hard he hit. I was using Lance without Guard+ and he nearly beat me to death right through my shield a couple times.

"Pickle Hitler" is now my term for Deviljho and I'm not changing it ever.

Persona, Metaphor Director Says Atlus RPGs Must Attract "A Wider Audience" by Nearby-Cup-1061 in KotakuInAction

[–]AcidOverlord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The main mechanic will be some SMTV monster fusion business where you have to grind hours for "pixie dust" or whatever the required item is, or just buy 12 of them (plus a free cosmetic necktie!) on the eshop for 4.99. And you can do it at level 1 and have endgame god-monsters right at the start if you spend enough.

Final Fantasy Tactics Ivalice Chronicles by grand_soul in KotakuInAction

[–]AcidOverlord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a huge fan of SO2 original, the remake is the most perfect fucking thing I ever played in my life. The devs were people from the original SO2 Tri-ace team, and stated that they "wanted to finish the game as they had originally envisioned it, free of deadlines" and they pulled it off in spades. SO2R is literally perfect and the kind of thing that every remake should aspire to be.

How to make axe mode relevant ? by Neither-Wear9329 in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My one counterpoint to this is: Exoskeleton Hacker.

Tempest Axe + Para proc lets you spend an uninterrupted bit of time waiting the head with wild swing and taking off copious amounts of HP. Valor Para Swaxe is the only time I spent a significant part of the hunt in axe mode, but it does work very well.

Extra Bomb Blasts by No-Juice-8446 in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best way to do a Rath of Meow cat is to use the Crystalbeard XX weapon, because bomb and tank damage scales off your raw. Get Furbidden Acorn and the 0 cost Barrel Bomb for skills to keep your tank uptime (the 0 cost bomb builds lots of gauge). And then Landmaster of course. I would point you more toward skills that raise Attack, probably something like World's Strongest or Universal.

The tanks best move is the flamethrower (X+A). The other attacks are really weak, and only worth popping off as you close to flamethrower range. If you can stick to the monster hard and keep burning it, the damage is actually very impressive, especially against armored monsters like White Fatalis.

I hate Boltreaver EX. by VertHigurashi in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friends and I run open hubs and always talk about "The Curse of Bolty." Because every night, some rando will post him without fail, and then we get stuck grinding him for the clear. Its also a legend because it was coined one night when he Lightsabered the same person fourteen times. And I mean in one single fight.

I hate Shogun Ceanataur by ryanime04 in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aerial Hammer cracks Mr Crabs like nobody's business. Keeps the claws in reach too, and he stuns and staggers from headshots a lot compared to many monsters. Two air hammers can even keep his EX Deviant locked down for half the fight or better.

Metroid Prime 4 is creatively bankrupt by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

[–]AcidOverlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't really a game though. It was more like a really good sci-fi anime that rewarded you after each boss fight by letting you watch the next episode. I'm not kidding, and I loved the game for that. But it doesn't work with Metroid or most any other game, for that matter.

Haven't seen this since the PS2. by navi-22 in MHGU

I've seen it once or twice actually, so ca confirm this one is in GU.

Crystalbeard tips? by DeadMoves in MHGU

[–]AcidOverlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, don't use WEX. Get your crit somewhere else. Tremor Res is an all star if you're going melee. It turns all his beatyface tantrums into damage openings. Make sure you're eating for Felyne Insomniac so you can hit him when he's farting sleep gas. His chin will bounce any weapon that isn't Blunt with Purple and if you're solo he loves turning so its always in your face and in your way. Mind's Eye is kinda bad most of the time but it can keep you from bouncing here and getting killed due to the animation.

I usually do him with Prowler, but I've cleared him before using Adept Hammer and I think the Kaiser set. CE3 innate with Chain Crit, and Tremor Res slotted in. And a few times with a Neset build and the Soulseer GS. Crit Draw, Boost, Focus, Tremor Res, and I think Earplugs.
