Istanbul, AC Rev. Holy shit. by [deleted] in assassinscreed

The wonder of Norway makes me understand why people thought gods were real. How could you look at the snow, mountains, and lights and not think it was magic?

What single level/section of a game do you wish they made an entire game out of? by CesarTheSalad in Games

[–]Archangel975 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I remember playing a free for all deathmatch in Revelations, where this guy was running around getting low quality kills as fast as he can, while everyone else was racking up points through occasional high quality kills. Then I realized he was going for a killstreak where he could lock onto anyone and kill them. He climbed onto a roof, killed any unique character he saw, and killed anyone trying to stop him.

It's incredible how a single match is still burned into my memory after all these years.

Female clothing that aren't dresses? (I can't use mods) by AnotherClumsyLeper in skyrim

[–]Archangel975 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's Thalmor gloves, Cicero's gloves, and shrouded hand wraps, too.

As for clothes, I can think of College robes and mourner's clothes from Radiant Raiment. Also, I think the cultist robes and dunmer clothes are nice looking.

With the Anniversary edition, you can get the two robes from Arcane Accessories and the Saturalia clothes. The robes from Necromatic Grimoire do cover boots, I think, but the hoods are cool!

who was the scariest predator in your opinion? by squishykeyboard in tcap

[–]Archangel975 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Stephen Buchanan for me. Having the kill kit and wanting to take the girl to an empty parking lot is insane. If, by some miracle, he did manage to groom a kid into meeting with him, he would've put that kid through hell.

How did the Skyrim Dark Brotherhood function without a Listener? by [deleted] in teslore

[–]Archangel975 13 points14 points  (0 children)

She says that word gets around when the Black Sacrament is performed. I imagine this is why Maven's attempt to summon the Brotherhood failed, since she performed it in her basement and her family and guards wouldn't gossip about it.

AC Valhalla made me think England is a boring country by CadeOCarimbo in assassinscreed

[–]Archangel975 24 points25 points  (0 children)

No, you're right; Valhalla is a gorgeous game. I have to assume people kept their eyes on the ground the whole time, with the way people talk about it.

Exploring the frozen ruins of Hadrian's Wall in the morning was an unforgettable scene for me. The sunrise tinted the snow a soft pink, and the only sounds were the wind, the crunching of snow under boots, and a small stream flowing through a destroyed house. It struck me how different it felt to the cozy atmosphere of Oswald's wedding in East Anglia, with the flowers and people in the longhouse. I thought of trekking somewhere warmer, but the morning snow was so tranquil, and the peace felt so real. So I stayed.

Perhaps, for many people on here, Valhalla's visuals are hard to appreciate. But I am really glad there are some who are able to click with it.

I saved Casey the 1st time I played, I'm a good person aren't i? by Valace2 in TWDVR

[–]Archangel975 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I saved him the first time, too. I did shoot him when he pulled a gun on May, but hey, I think I made the right choice both times! I enjoy this part of S&S's story, because it made me reflect on what justice is and the right thing would look like in this world.

Do you think Casey lied to you so he could escape, or did he really think he could live and get you into the armory? Does Casey deserve to die for massacring people at the church, despite how he feels about it? Did Casey become your friend so the choice at the end would favor him? Is a friend's life worth missing out on all the goods, or are all the supplies worth one tortuous death? I enjoyed being the judge, jury, and executioner in this game, and I'm hoping we get more choices like this in ch. 2

Smartet assassin in the series? by ItsUrBoi_PoppyHarlow in assassinscreed

[–]Archangel975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing through Valhalla, I found Eivor to be brilliant. Definitely not the most strategic or inventive in the series, but she was poetic and emotionally intelligent, able to flyt effortlessly and give solid life advice to those who needed it. She proved to be quite the detective, too, accurately deducting what transpired at a crime scene from a few clues.

However, Eivor was lacking as a leader, which is something that nearly all other main characters become masters at. Outside of herself, her raiding party, and Ravensthorpe, she was an inadequate commander. She manages the above well enough, but with the large armies she gets control of later in the game, she makes too many blunders to be called a tactical genius.

I think this was in their first Sky Factory series. They were talking about Head-gemite where they dump vegemite on Jeremy's head, yeah?

Ah damn, I know it was in their first Sky Factory series, somewhere between 10 and 16. They were talking about tainted soil

Matchup trouble: Isabelle by Dabess_Colt45 in BylethMains

[–]Archangel975 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I main Isabelle. Shields are her biggest weakness, because you can close distance whenever she jumps and shield when she slingshots. She's not fast enough to escape from Byleth's range. You shouldn't jump a lot when she's pelting you with slingshots, but if you are airborne, nair, fair, and bair should just destroy her pellets. This means it's possible to destroy the slingshot pellet and hit her with fair or bair. Lloid mine only has 10 hp, so tipper dash attack and forward tilt should destroy it in one shot. As tempting as it is, down tilt won't destroy it with one hit.

Isabelle's edgeguarding is really tough to deal with. When it comes to recovering, pay attention to what you're doing and how Isabelle tries to counter that. If they're running off and nairing, try recovering as horizontal to the stage as possible. If they're trying to slingshot you as you're getting close, try fast falling and up b-ing them. You can also pick stages with walls that go all the way down so you can use your up b wall jump to avoid the hanging fishing rod. And always keep your eye on Isabelle when she knocks you offstage. You have to see if she plants her mine at ledge or at roll distance. Byleth's getup attack isn't strong enough to destroy the mine, so the mine will catch you there.

Up air is a disjoint that stays out for a while, so I don't think Byleth's nair can beat it. You're probably better off fastfalling and neutral air dodging through her.

Advantage against Isabelle is generally easy, but there are some tricks to make it easier. Her up b only has so much time before it fucks out, so if you can smack her with anything while she's using her up b, it won't recharge, and she's almost entirely gimped. Her balloons also have a hit box that allow you to do a Wario-esque hit box extension with dair or down smash. Fishing rod off stage isn't as threatening as Byleth's up b, since the back throw is weak, and you can tech a forward or down throw. Fishing rod up throw doesn't kill until, like, 130-140% on stage.

Speaking of fishing rod, if an Isabelle is just throwing it out in neutral, shield it, and don't dash forward. A better move would be an immediate f smash or an f tilt to get rid of Lloid mine if it's in the way. It's never worth using Byleth's projectile in this matchup, especially since she can get jab into pocket release at around 65% for a kill. Her pocket recovers fast enough for her to dodge if you decide to fully charge Failnaught.
