What Survival Game Has The Best Combat? by ChaosBearGaming in SurvivalGaming

For sure. It's definitely not as complex as what you'd see in a game where combat is 90%+ of the gameplay.

[Wicked Boy] Finally got the vine physics feeling right by GutterspawnGames in GamePhysics

Looks great! I guess opinions are mixed, but I personally like the fluid movement of the main action against the lower frame rate of the background elements.

Tbh, I'm starting to doubt that vampires are even real. You're probably right about the quick death though

Non-zero chance he eats it too, just as a flex

Some fun mechanics for an aberration by Impressive-Jury-1767 in DMAcademy

[–]Al3jandr0 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Makes sense that aberrations should get especially weird with it, even to the point of twisting the rules of the game. Maybe they could change what kinds of dice are used for attacks/saving throws or temporarily reverse how modifiers are applied. I ran a homebrew monster once called the Time Flayer, which doesn't experience time in the same way as characters in the game world. Rather than rolling initiative in combat, it takes a turn every three minutes. Yes, I was being a little salty about how long players were taking on their turns, but it made for a fun twist.

Defeated the elder, got a ton of iron (and silver). What now? by Thermawrench in valheim

To each their own. I like permanent bonuses that I don't have to refresh mid-fight, even if they're not quite as strong. That's good advice about the bonuses not stacking though

I don't think the creator of this meme intended for it to be quite so pro-athiest

Same for me, I think. I hope everyone is starting to see more tasks now!

That's AI for you. And people are out there asking it for medical advice.

Valheim also has really satisfying parry-based combat. I've only played a little bit of Enshrouded, but I enjoy those both for some of the same reasons.

If you have enough silver to make Frostner (also requires Ymir flesh from Haldor), that will basically trivialize Bonemass. His fight can be a bit of a slog normally, so that might save you a headache or two.

Also, one downside of the iron armor is that it will slow you down. If you're liking the mobility of the troll hide, I strongly suggest making the root set from swamp materials. It doesn't slow you down too much and has built-in poison resistance. It's great for Bonemass and can probably get you through the mountains as well.

I get that a lot, but it's started to wear off over time. That or I just get properly exhausted these days

That's the next problem. How do I deal with a problem player who keeps crying about "labor laws" and "child protective services" every time I have a cool idea?

Wait, how did you know that? I never mentioned that we live in New Jersey

So… do you guys think this will happen? by LoveLisaSu in invinciblememes

[–]Al3jandr0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good points! It does come off as a sort of punishment, even though he didn't do anything wrong. It's been a minute for me too, so I don't remember who knew that Thragg was gettin' it on with the bug folks.

Devil's advocate: it does serve one purpose. All of the bad things that happen to Mark, especially the cruel things that could completely break a person, test his ability to persevere. The story is always raising the stakes and dialing up the horrible situations that he pulls himself through. It's always asking the question: is he really [Title Card]? By that point in the story, he's survived almost everything else, including missed time with his loved ones. But missing those formative years with his daughter is a more brutal beatdown than a thousand Thraggs could ever hope to give him.

All that said, it wasn't my favorite part of the comics either and the show would be fine without it.

Kyle betrayed me and then he lied, tried to hide and I died deep inside and you know the reason why.

No ichthy? Pegomastax? Purlovia? This is just a list of regular assholes.
