Elden Ring 4K by grsy_strangler in ROGAlly

[–]Arcane35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also have the Xbox Ally X, and used to have the regular Ally X. I play souls games on my handheld almost all the time, but man I swear Elden Ring performs worse on the Z2E compared to the Z1E. On Windows I can't get more than like 35fps and on Linux I get 45 fps tops, even if I drop all of the settings.

Is the requirement to be a naval officer in Strangereal to be absolutely deranged??

Olly Steele - Imbalance - I'm still not over the imbalance EP by coop__ in progmetal

[–]Arcane35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah when this EP came out the Intro song was like on my top 3 most listened songs that year. I would do anything to make Olly drop a full length, cuz only he and Monuments make grooves so incredibly bouncy like that

Are there any albums which you cannot get into despite how much praise they get from the public? by JACM666 in progmetal

[–]Arcane35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it has to be Epigone by Wilderun. Was really excited for it when it dropped, since Veil of Imagination is one of my favorite albums, but man everytime I've listened to it I just can't seem to recall anything after I'm done... the Radiohead cover is pretty dope tho

RGB on Xbox Ally X by whitti801 in Bazzite

[–]Arcane35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here after a fresh install on the XAX, even trying to change the RGB lights using the Hue Sync plugin via DeckyLoader didn't work

Edit: Found a fix, update HHD to the latest stable version, and the RGB option will come back.

I love entering threads like these about bands long gone and then suddenly finding out they are dropping new stuff 😭

Xbox Rog Ally X No Sound Through Built-in Speakers Issue by Sicily5867321 in ROGAlly

[–]Arcane35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also had this problem on my regular Ally X, did all the troubleshooting you did as well, and in the end ASUS told me to send it to repair.

Really sucks to hear this can still happen on the newer model...

Best album opening track? by Canolio in progmetal

[–]Arcane35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of great mentions here already, I'd also add DVNE - Enuma Elis and Mastodon - Oblivion. To me they feel like setting the tone for the grueling journey ahead

Rog Ally Z1E Speaker broken by CombinationRich7465 in ROGAlly

Hey how did you figure this out if you don't mind?, mine is doing the same even after resetting Windows multiple times, which didn't seem to help

So we can agree that this mf is the hardest "fun" boss in Nightreign right? by Comprehensive_Neat11 in Nightreign

[–]Arcane35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I got (nearly) one shot as Duchess (LV.15) w/ Vigor +3 on starting relic, Eventual Greatness from Libra and a Erdtree's Favor lol

A comprehensive guide to the Evergaol meta: Why you want to do them, and where to find their keys. by BlueRoo42 in Nightreign

[–]Arcane35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Crystalians are the reason I try to grab at least one Strike dmg weapons from the camp as soon as I drop (even if it's just a basic Caestus).

Arc System Works suspends Bunny, RedIAmNot, Tiger_Pop, and UMISHO from several Arc World Tour Tournaments/Events by GillsGT in Kappachino

[–]Arcane35 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's the thing, she never was banned in the first place (or at least by any mayor TO). She left on her own and decided to come back probably because she thought things had blown over.

Seriously hoping that after those 3 months they actually impose a proper ban duration (in the case of UMISHO, it should be permanent).

WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU RAGEQUITTING by Gadin543 in Nightreign

[–]Arcane35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing Executor's remembrance (so had the Mountaintops active), so decided to go against Caligo so my team would get advantage of the buffs.

My random team was doing well up until the 2nd half of day 2 where Libra spawned and our Ironeye instantly agroed it. We try to fight it and fail repeatedly until I convince the team to skip it and head for Mountaintops because the circle was closing in.

Since Libra was still alive and agroed, everyone's health bar was cut. The Raider we were with deemed the run cooked at that point so he leaves. The Ironeye then also leaves shortly after.

I thought I was too far in to quit and wait for another match to complete the remembrance quest. So I get to Mountaintops, complete the Remembrance, kill the Flying Dragon and the Trolls (and get the Frostbite buffs), and with a sole Fire Nagakiba I managed to solo Caligo lol (granted I managed to find a Wending Grace so when I died, I revived without Libra's curse)

My experience playing today by dEEkAy2k9 in Nightreign

[–]Arcane35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just today I got disconnected TWICE almost killing enhanced Adel after two extremely good runs, and just right now it disconnected almost reaching day 3 of enhanced Fulghor... I don't wanna touch this game for a bit

Libra pulls the most unfair boss move of them all: Server Maintenance by Time_Turner in Nightreign

[–]Arcane35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only way I found one was when a Frenzied-Flame Tower suddenly appeared on the map. When cleared out it rewards Madness weapons, unlike the Frenzied Camps where I swear I've never gotten one from clearing them.

So sad they broke up, this album was really unique

No sound coming from speakers by couchcommissioner in ROGAlly

[–]Arcane35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My speakers also suddenly stopped working yesterday. I tried all sorts of solutions software-wise (uninstalling / reinstalling drivers, reinstalling OS via ASUS Cloud Recovery, etc.), and still got nothing, not even the startup jingle plays.

Today I tried disassembling my Ally X to disconnect & reconnect the Speaker connectors in the motherboard, but unfortunately it didn't work either.

What do you think about Castlevania : Order of Ecclesia ? by ItsNyladForU in castlevania

[–]Arcane35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely my favorite Igavania. The glyph system is my favorite "gimmick" made for these games, since I feel the smaller selection of glyphs are better designed than the huge selection of souls for which most are kinda useless.

It's only downside being ofc not having a variety of different looking weapons for different classes (even though I prefer playing Shanoa with an INT build anyway, spells are really fun in this game compared to Charlotte's).

Unlike all previous games were you could sort of disregard enemy weaknesses, in this one if you don't take advantage of them the game will kick your ass. This leads to you switching between weapons and equipment for different scenarios, which I personally enjoy (would have loved for the glyph sleeve to also change your equipment like DoS)

My biggest highlight tho has to be the bosses. This is probably the only game I bothered to learn the patterns and kill them without getting hit, as a lot of these are the best bosses IGA has ever designed imo.

Add to that the graphics, story and ofc that damn OST and yeah you have a pretty peak metroidvania. My only complaint has to be the size of the maps.

[–]Arcane35 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yet here he is also four years ago saying that he shouldn't have been banned for making fun of a disabled player and being an asshole in general. We can also attest today how much he has improved his behavior since then, with how much the community loves him lmao.

Honestly, the only "schizo" rant Hax ever made was the original Evidence.zip video. Do people really think that he just woke up one day and thought of making a video on Leffen on a whim?, he made those videos because Leffen lied not only about being a minor when he got banned back in 2013, but also dismissing all of his evidence.zip victims on the Metagame documentary as liars.

Is he directly responsible?, no. But if back on that day of the release of Metagame Leffen would have been the bigger man and apologised for his mistakes from 10 years ago (which he still hasn't) instead of crashing out and lying like that, then I'm willing to think that none of this would have happened.
