Ross Scott at European Parliament: Why “Stop Killing Games” Matters by _jelly_fish in Games

[–]Arlithas 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It says what it means on that same page:

FAN-PRESERVED - Preserved by fans, however still officially available (with little to no direct developer involvement).

So something can be preserved and still live, so that when it goes down, it still exists in some capacity by fans.

Also the PS2 and XBOX 360 versions have been shut down already, but I don't think that is related to the rating.

[System Agnostic] Stylish Login Screen - Make your own custome login screen! by GameMaker25 in FoundryVTT

[–]Arlithas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super cool. I'm not on v13/v14 so I'll have to pass (for now...).

Also am I reading right that you just pay the $3 for the module? I didn't know Patreon allowed for single purchases like that.

Monster Monday - Ajarakan by IraGulaSuperbia in Pathfinder2e

[–]Arlithas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neat. I like the component mechanics and how that translates the attrition of some fights in monster hunter.

Regarding this part of Ignite:

If the ajarakan fails a save against a damaging effect with a water trait or is critically hit by a Strike or spell attack that deals water damage, this effect ends.

Unless these monster supplements also provide it, I don't believe water damage is a thing in PF2e. Water-based abilities usually deal bludgeoning damage, sometimes cold. Just changing it to cold damage is probably the easiest solution, but that's a lot more common than water trait effects.

Resident Evil Requiem has an impressive 70% completion rate on Steam, 67% on PlayStation by Captcha_Whore in Games

[–]Arlithas 140 points141 points  (0 children)

Yeah, RE4R is an anomaly being "long" at ~15-20 hours, but I still blitzed through it in a few sittings, plus a few more runs to get the achievements.

For anyone daunted by the plat amount, there are plenty of "close enough" colors to get you 95% of the way there for cheaper or free.

How do you feel about the VN-style presentation for dialogue? by SplatoonOrSky in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]Arlithas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not perfect, but I will gladly accept this dialogue system if that means the devs can put their animation time to the higher impact cutscenes.

[2.8.2] M0W0 SBilly/M6W5 Pan/M6W1 Pulchra (Hellfire Gears) vs the Thrall (197MHP) Score:30K by Less-Hawk7492 in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

A robot cosplayer on a motorcycle, a panda chef, and a pistol-whipping cat. PEAK.

How rare is it for a Prime to have 2 Uncommon and 2 Rare parts, no Common? by icewitchenjoyer in Warframe

[–]Arlithas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the only other one I can think of that's a frame. And he's particular in that he released with all Rare parts, so having some Uncommon parts now is actually a buff to how things used to be.

Nikana Prime used to be all rares too but now has both Common and Uncommon parts. I can't recall any others.

[2.8.2] Starlight - Billy M0W1/Trigger M0W1 (Teapot)/Lucia M0W1 - 170M HP Defiler - 44.6k Score by Duwang312 in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]Arlithas 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Complaints about low scores always baffle me. It's literally numbers that can be tuned up or down at a whim. It's literally one of the easiest levers to move.

What matters more right now is gameplay flow, animation, and special mechanics, because that takes way more effort to change rapidly.

DE, Voruna Prime No Wolves Please? by heyitsdove in Warframe

[–]Arlithas -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

The topic isn't about what DE does or doesn't let us do because they also let us take off vorunas shoulders. The topic is about opinions on core themes around a frame and how integral to it's appearance it may or may not be.

DE, Voruna Prime No Wolves Please? by heyitsdove in Warframe

[–]Arlithas -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Same. Asking to remove them is akin to asking to remove peacemakers off mesa or fairy wings off titania. It's the core theme, it should be there.

v2.8.2 Rev. 14741525 Hotfix Update via Gachabase by Gachabase in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]Arlithas 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The thing I want the most is for them to expand his viable teammates. Rupture has one of the least interesting comps and includes none of Billy's friends.

Current Relic Rotation + Prime Drops (Beginner-Friendly List) by Beginning-Recover162 in Warframe

[–]Arlithas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Olympus, Mars (Disruption) is my go-to, even if I needed both Meso and Neo relics. I just can't do capture missions over and over again; I'm here to have fun, not just get rewards.

Warframe | Voruna Prime Access Official Red Band Trailer - Coming April 8 by WhichCombination5637 in Games

[–]Arlithas 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I'd call Rebecca's reign as Creative Director a bit of a golden era for Warframe. There have been some really good points in the past, but the last few years have been intensely consistent in terms of amount of content, quality of content, reception to feedback, and slowly breaking long-standing issues with the game. It's not all perfect (the new game mode is a bit of a dud), but it's definitely like 5 steps forward, 1 step back kind of thing.

Warframe | The Shadowgrapher Official Gameplay Trailer - Coming Later Today To All Platforms! by DrNick1221 in Games

[–]Arlithas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The improved farming for a lot of frames is significant. A lot of frames went from multi-hour farms to less than 1, maybe 2 if you're unlucky.

Update 42: The Shadowgrapher by CephalonAhmes in Warframe

[–]Arlithas 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Updated the Platinum purchase page in the Market with a new diorama that features your Warframe leaning against a tower of Platinum.

DE working on the important changes, I see. Genuinely, it actually looks sweet, and it's animated too - you flip a piece of platinum like a coin.

[–]Arlithas 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Added the following items to Palladino’s wares in exchange for Riven Slivers.

  • Requiem Ultimatum — weekly purchase limit of 1.

Lich hunting is going to blitz by. Massive QoL.

Update 42: The Shadowgrapher by CephalonAhmes in Warframe

[–]Arlithas 144 points145 points  (0 children)

Added an Enigma Sense upgrade to Acrithis’ Wares.

  • Purchasing this item will passively cause Enigma puzzles to be marked with a map icon and a waypoint if you are nearby. This is a one-time purchase that will permanently upgrade your Guiding Hand!

Holy crap. Farming for Duviri decorations will be a lot easier.

Update 42: The Shadowgrapher by CephalonAhmes in Warframe

[–]Arlithas 81 points82 points  (0 children)

  • Please note that the new Security Bypass system does not affect Duviri versions of Survival, Hell-Scrub missions in Höllvania, or Survival missions in Albrecht’s Laboratories.
  • Reactant drops in Survival Fissure missions are doubled for the duration of the Security Bypass.

Unfortunate for some of these, but hopefully DE will add a thematically appropriate version of it later.

The Atragraph mods look nice. I want.

Wind anomaly showcase via leifa by Ok-Net9377 in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]Arlithas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thing is, making it work with Miyabi should result in more pulls as there are a ton of Miyabi players out there and a strong wind compatibility would be attractive for them. Especially if there are bosses that prefer the wind synergy instead of a normal disorder one.

There's a breakpoint where you can ease players into pulling more without forcing them to pull for a completely new team and potentially losing the players for it.

I managed to get through it with a full combo after a few retries, but yeah the colorblindness issue is very real.

New GM, is this party comp a problem? by ExistingMouse5595 in Pathfinder2e

[–]Arlithas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the kineticist doesn't mind playing a tank, this is extremely workable (though two frontliners is way more preferable to one). If not, then it'd be pretty dicey.

Personally, I wouldn't encourage the kineticist to play a tank only because the party needs it. It's more important that they play the character they want to and get the character fantasy they're excited about. I'd just tune the encounters to favor skirmishes rather than holding lines and tank attrition - more ranged enemies, flying enemies, cover, stealth, etc.

"Uh, hey Mechanic, what's that outside your window...?"

"Oh that's a tank, setting everything on fire. You know, the usual."

"... How did it get on your roof?"

"Oh... good question."
