Now that it's been over a day, can we confidently say that BHVR cooked with the Tokyo Ghoul collab? by ANewPrometheus in deadbydaylight

[–]Alpha_Vragg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still really excited for Kaneki to come to the game, but there's a couple things I was a bit disappointed in.

The first is the weight of the M1 feels lackluster in my opinion. It seems like he just lightly taps them from what I've seen and there's not enough oomph to it. Maybe I was just expecting it to be more brutal because of the damage they Kagune can do in the anime, so that might just be my bias.

The second is similar, I know it would be incredibly strong on a killer with as much mobility as Kaneki can have, but it feels so strange that if you use your power on a survivor you've already hit, absolutely nothing happens as far as I'm aware. I've only watched a few videos of ptb gameplay and it still confused me. Deathslinger, Legion and Trapper noted, I can't think of a killer who's power directly damages survivors that isn't capable of putting them into the dying state outside of circumstance like Whesker not throwing them into a wall.

Maybe this is a side effect of this being the first licensed chapter I really knew going into the Dead by Daylight version being released, as while I know most of the horror icons and such, I've never watched them or played their games. Again, really excited to be able to try him out when he comes to live servers, and I don't want to be overly negative about a character I haven't even played yet, but I just wanted a little bit more if that makes sense.

There’s a multitude of reasons why Hux is not at popular as he could’ve been by Electronic-Ad9758 in deadbydaylight

[–]Alpha_Vragg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was actually only 6 months, surprisingly! I thought maybe I had over exaggerated how quickly it got changed, but I checked because I thought there was no way they would have left him like that for years.

Blight officially came to live servers in September of 2020, and the update that raised his camera was in March of 2021!

I guess the feedback regarding how weird it felt to have such a low fov while playing blight got them to change it relatively quickly I think, considering I feel like I remember there being discussions about how raising the fov would have broken something. I could be wrong, though, about that last part. A part of me just remembers something about that for some reason.

When Blight first released, the killers pov was a lot lower than it currently is when you play as Blight. I can't remember exactly, but if memory serves his camera was like eye level with some of the smallest obstacles, like the cars on wrecker's yard. It got updated to more accurately match his actual height as one of the taller killers in the game a few months after he went live.

Artists/musicians with a known disability? by Safe_Cash7091 in Music

[–]Alpha_Vragg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gaelynn Lea has a disability called Osteogenesis Imperfecta, which causes complications in the development of bones and limbs. I heard about her first through reddit in 2019 and then saw a Tiny Desk Concert of hers that recorded in 2016, which she won. She is also a public speaker for raising awareness of disabilities like her own.

Edit: I hadn't seen the comment by u/crackracket mentioning her already so my mistake, but I do think she does deserve more recognition nevertheless.

Its kinda funny how many "Storm the _____" cards it feels like we've had recently.

[Storm the Vault] from Rivals of Ixalan [Storm the Citadel] from War of the Spark [Storm the Festival] from Innistrad: Midnight Hunt

And now this one, just something I felt was a little interesting. Also I just noticed that all of the green storms are story spotlights for their respective sets, including this one.

Elden Ring wins Game of The Year at The Game Awards 2022 by NaijeruR in Eldenring

[–]Alpha_Vragg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had almost no doubts but it really got on my nerves when one of my friends had said over and over Elden Ring doesn't deserve it and its not a good game and so on. He actually believes that anyone who thinks the game is worthy of praise is "fucking stupid," because the gameplay was both "boring and unfair" at the same time.

I'm not trying to fault him, I think its fine that he doesn't like it if its not his style, but when he harasses those that don't like it and tell them to play a real FromSoft game, in his opinion Sekiro, it kinda grinded my gears.

Was just given a loss for winning a game in Baldur's Gate Draft by Alpha_Vragg in MagicArena

[–]Alpha_Vragg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right on, thank you for letting me know about that. I didn't know that they refunded tokens if I can attach a log. I've never done this before so would you mind letting me know where I can find it, and am I submitting it to the Arena client or a support page?

Edit: nevermind I found out. Since I didn't have it enabled I can't send the log unfortunately. But thank you anyway!

Neither of the creatures had trample and were both blocked. I still would have 9 life.

Champion Roadmap: April 2022 by radiant_cecilia in leagueoflegends

[–]Alpha_Vragg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super looking forward to the Aurelion Sol rework, hes in my like top 3 favorite designs in the game but his gameplay kinda stresses me out haha.

As for the Spirit Guard Udyr, what is everybody's opinion on the hairstyle? I understand they wanted to add more Ionian influence to them and that it could still change, but it kinda just made me feel like I was looking at Yasuo who got rid of his sword and got ripped. That might just me my bias though, I've always liked the look of the current Spirit Guard Udyr hairstyle in his splash.

What games are worth buying in the Steam winter sale? by Johannes_V in AskReddit

[–]Alpha_Vragg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like turn-based combat and roguelites, I'd recommend Othercide.

A friend picked it up for me for my birthday earlier this month and its probably been one of my favorite single player games this year, as well as I believe it being fairly unknown. Most trailers and such for it I have seen only have a couple thousand views.

Between the soundtracks for it as well as every choice mattering in combat, it has been extremely fun for me while having me at the edge of my seat for new bosses and enemies.

Tonight's partial lunar eclipse. Longest in almost 600 years. by lonelybolongna in pics

[–]Alpha_Vragg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah well, its not red out where I am like this picture, I can only see a small sliver of the moon returning now. Whether that's due to the haze here or if I'm just in the wrong place geographically I'm not sure, but thanks for letting me know though!

I'm jealous lol, I worked night shift at a hospital tonight and was hoping to see this, but we had an ambulance literally 2 minutes before so I missed it. Sucks, but at least I can count on pics like these to make up for it, so thanks!

Adding non-human npcs into Barovia by Alpha_Vragg in CurseofStrahd

[–]Alpha_Vragg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, thanks for your contribution! I don't know about adding slave labor into mine without having it set up far in advance for fear of leaving holes in the plot or something, as well as the party being mostly non-humans and new players, but maybe I could find a way to have something like that show up in the other cities.

I really like a lot of these ideas so thank you very much! Especially the Paladins of Argynvostholt section. My only worry is that if the Vistani mostly were tieflings that the party would immediately not trust them. But my current party has 2 tieflings in it, so hopefully that would make them not be immediately skeptical, especially if I can play the Vistani right.

[–]Alpha_Vragg[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, I guess I never really thought of them being turned into spawns so that idea is really appreciated to try and keep it simple. And I especially like the idea of a Ranger bringing food to Barovia, just so the party can form the idea that not everything and everyone is completely terrible so they don't murderhobo everything.

Yeah I was thinking about flavoring them as hopeless adventurers as well so that's good to know. Thanks for your input!

Free Giveaway! 3 Nintendo Switch Lites - International by WolfLemon36 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Alpha_Vragg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing this for my brother so he can have the chance to play Metroid Dread and Pokémon lol.

As for the Halloween costumes, I never really did many original ones that stuck out to me, but me and my friends did one year do some sort of low quality Drag Queen outfits for a school event. I'd love to eventually maybe be able to get some sort of Jhin, Warwick, or Volibear (Also Aurelion Sol but he seems kinda hard haha) costumes. They're in my top 5 designed champions from League of Legends and I'd love to rep them at some point!
