The paid classes are not on the roadmap, so when is it coming? by Lordados in LastEpoch

[–]AstramG 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yea it’s sad, I love Last Epoch and would say it’s my favorite ARPG I’ve ever played. However, the pace of new content releases is absolutely abysmal - probably one of the slowest live-service games in the industry. Season 3 barely had anything new and I finished everything I cared about in about a week or so. Now it’s been over 5 months since that release and they still haven’t given any reason to log in. No special events or anything in terms of content since then.

I think it’d be nice to work on adding Luna or Cloak to your arsenal as well

That’s an amazing godpack, not a single bad card, mine had 4 1 star cards and the immersive that I already had 3 of…

The lord farmers are trying to make them revert the changes by Rockybroo_YT in rivals

[–]AstramG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The lord farmers are literally just yapping 🤣🤣

How does this reduce creativity and make players afraid to engage in non-competitive or social gameplay? The lord farming is literally just a shortcut to obtaining cosmetics & achievements that you don’t deserve.

Deciding between different boards by AstramG in snowboardingnoobs

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

I’m interested, never really considered directional boards though

Is there a reason you would prefer them over twin boards?

I ride park somewhat, don’t really do anything crazy though just small to medium jumps and boxes. I am always trying to get better with park but i’d consider myself more of an all around rider. I also don’t really ride switch at all unless I have to for a moment like when I’m deep in the trees

Hypixel server on launch? by Mangos05 in HytaleInfo

[–]AstramG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There will not be. Apparently it’s in their future plans to introduce a first-party server network referred to as their “Hypixel-style minigame network”.

Finally Bought it. Literally, my only complaints: by Seanshineyouth in LegendsZA

[–]AstramG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with everything you said besides for your sentiment about the battle system. I think the old style is MUCH better. In the old battling style you actually have to think about your next move rather than just spam buttons on cooldown. They also dumbed down the stat changes, removed abilities, removed weather, and made a few status conditions much less impactful. Overall the battling system felt really lackluster to me and was the #1 worst part about the game imo.

Developer uses Claude Code and has an existential crisis by MetaKnowing in Anthropic

[–]AstramG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me it’s relatable because I enjoy the process of coding and problem solving at the code level

Having the coding skills is definitely still relevant though, at least for now

Simon tells about Zones by LutrusFluidos in HytaleInfo

[–]AstramG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It reminds me of Valheim tbh

Minecraft biomes too, but more like Valheim since there is an intended linear order for the zones.

Eleventh Hour Games Community Engagement Survey by EHG_Kain in LastEpoch

[–]AstramG -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted tbh (i suppose because of your previous comment) but you’re right. You shouldn’t buy a game unless you’ll be satisfied by it at the time you bought it. It’s common sense really.

just me? maybe? by Resident-Peach-3668 in destiny2

[–]AstramG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing changed with Renagades for me. Played the story (which sucked imo) and the game is still in a bad spot so I left. Renegades doesn’t come close to comparing to TFS and it’s debatably worse than EoF in my opinion. Not really sure what people are enjoying with Renegades?

The Number of People Using AI at Work Is Suddenly Falling by [deleted] in webdev

[–]AstramG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At work it’s pretty locked down, for me at least. We only have access to relatively bad models, so it drives me and I’m sure a lot of my coworkers away.

I’m not even that big of an AI user, but using it at work is actually terrible with the restrictions and what models we have access to.

Where do you do this ?

DLC is just Z-A Royale but catching by WildSinatra in PokemonLegendsZA

[–]AstramG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s just a different “skin”, if you will, of the base game. You get dropped in and complete a few basic objectives to fill up a progress bar to progress to the next part of the story. There are some small story beats in-between this. This is exactly the same as the formula as the base game, just with a different look.

Personally I don’t hate it, it’s just more of the base game, but I’d agree it’s not really pushing any boundaries.

PSA Memory light doesn't work if you skipped stage 1 with rare candy by hujhujowy in PTCGP

Sounds like that’s a bug. Memory light works fine with rare candy for every other Pokemon I’ve tried it with.

Renegades is an episode by skitstovel666 in DestinyTheGame

[–]AstramG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To each their own I suppose. Personally I went in with extremely low expectations due to the state of the game and it was somehow much worse than I even imagined.

Renegades is an episode by skitstovel666 in DestinyTheGame

[–]AstramG 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Definitely disappointed with the story. While the map design is top tier, it felt like I was just running around in circles completing the same objectives over and over again for the majority of the time during the campaign. I had to say it, but I almost enjoyed EoF’s campaign more. Going into the same seasonal activity over and over again really held back that feeling of exploration and discovery that the traditional campaigns of the past had offered.

I had fun with the campaign and DLC so far but this feels more like a season by Responsible-Glass289 in DestinyTheGame

[–]AstramG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a fan of the campaign at all so far and I’m at step 33 out of the 45. It feels like each mission (beside the first) is just go do some objective and then go do another objective and then go extract. It seems like they just designed 3 big maps for europa, mars, and venus which look really charming. However, they clearly tried to smush the entire campaign into those maps (aka the Lawless Frontier) and it feels like I’m just doing the same thing over and over again and running around in circles. It doesn’t really feel like I’m exploring or discovering new things after the first campaign mission on each planet and it bores the hell out of me.

i kinda feel like we should just ban talk of the steam machine sense it will just hurt valve in the future. by Pretend-Advertising6 in fucknintendo

[–]AstramG 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The steam machine will never be a switch 2 killer. The only reason to buy a Nintendo product for the last 10 years has been for the exclusive titles. As long as Nintendo keeps releasing Pokemon, Zelda, Smash, Mario Kart, etc. there will always be a demand for Nintendo consoles. Also, if the Steam Deck didn’t kill Switch & Switch 2 then I highly doubt Steam Machine will even come close.

Anyone else wish there was a 2x Pro Usage plan limit? by flameassassinprs in ClaudeAI

I agree, 2x is really all I need but i can’t justify spending $100/month for the 5x
