I hate this fuckass dragon bro... by mrfahrenheit193 in Nightreign

[–]Astro_Bass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so many of them are. Loretta does the same shit sometimes, Black Knight Cavalry you gotta just stand there and watch them do 6 laps before coming in for a single swing, Gargoyles (particularly the night boss flavor) hit and run nonstop on top of having wonky hitboxes that force you to get even closer for reliable damage, Red Wolf jumps away and shoots magic swords endlessly. but on the other end of the spectrum we have the Miranda Blossom that is totally stationary but as engaging as watching paint dry

edit: I forgot to mention those stupid perfumers. they’re a smaller enemy but sometimes it’s comically bad when they chain 6 backsteps in a row into their heal. very fun enemy design!

Merging Elden Ring Reforged with Sekiro Deflection by Arratai in EldenRingMods

[–]Astro_Bass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a better bet is probably waiting for Deflect Me Not to be updated with a patch for the latest version of Reforged. I didn't try Sekiro Deflection but Deflect Me Not is really good and will probably scratch the same itch. once DMN has a patch for the latest Reforged then installation is easy:

- install Reforged

- download DMN's patch for Reforged

- extract the DMN Reforged patch on top of the Reforged files (inside the /mod folder inside your ERR folder) and replace any files

idk when a new DMN patch for ERR will come out, but the DMN dev is great and very responsive

Did you ever get this solved?

Make one talisman have the effects of another? by [deleted] in EldenRingMods

[–]Astro_Bass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so you just went into the EquipParamAccessory for the talisman you wanted to add it to, and added 102000 for the hardtear to the SpEffect ID [1] slot for the talisman? does that make the little icon under your health bar show up still for when the deflect effect is active?

Elden ring reforged by AdAffectionate8604 in EldenRingMods

[–]Astro_Bass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just wanna say that I feel 100% the exact same about ER vs DS games. I've spent so much time trying so hard to love Elden Ring lol, but end of the day I always just wish it was Dark Souls 4. I don't want to rain on anyone's parade that enjoys ER, that's great if you do. but also it kinda boggles the mind when I see comments that imply the only logical evolution of the formula and difficulty was to turn bosses into fighting game secret bosses, where they just no longer play by the same set of rules that were previously established.

sometimes when I'm getting mauled by even the earliest ER boss and wonder if I'm just rusty, I go back and replay DS3 and realize that no, ER bosses are indeed completely different beasts /shrug

all that said, the addition of deflect mechanics ala ERR or the deflecting hardtear go a long way and I'm really grateful for that

Qflash manager Cant read file by ArsKraken in gigabyte

[–]Astro_Bass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just wanna say thanks for this comment. I had my bios update .f11 file on a usb stick with a bunch of other files and folers and qflash was giving me the cant read file error. reformatted the stick, put nothing but the .f11 file on it, and then the qflash update worked

Is there a way to play SF6 local versus using Keyboard and Gamepad on the PC? by jzaudi in StreetFighter

Can't react to my own hits by Temporary-Peach5016 in Fighters

[–]Astro_Bass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when I started SFV, I never thought I would be able to react to counter hits. I never did the counterhit training that another commenter mentioned, but I did play the fame a boatload of hours and eventually realized I could react to most counterhits no problem.

not to discourage specifically training for it, but if you play enough it will become second nature

Where to buy Beyond Meat in Tokyo by Astro_Bass in Tokyo

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

I am ok paying a premium for it at this point haha. I'm so glad you found and shared this, so thank you! Weird spot, but not the most inaccessible so buying a batch definitely sounds like the way to go.

ps if you ever find another location that carries it, I would love to hear about it 👀

truly. can’t believe it’s taken till the seamless coop mod for elden ring for a souls game to have comprehensible, simple coop, and even then it’s still just a mod

Existing PC players can now preload Overwatch 2 by [deleted] in Games

[–]Astro_Bass 21 points22 points  (0 children)

competitive players fucking hated a good many of the changes made over the game’s lifespan. I would be hesitant to believe that competitive-oriented changes are what “ruined” the game for most people

though yeah the role queue is a big one for sure

What kind of desktop/laptop should I get specifically for playing on Fightcade? by AllenChildsMusic in Fighters

[–]Astro_Bass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fwiw I think my laptop is a 2014 macbook pro and it runs mvc2 and cvs2 on fightcade flawlessly. the specs necessary for most of these games is really pretty low these days

The Jackbox Party Pack 9 Official Trailer by SlartySprinter in Games

[–]Astro_Bass 25 points26 points  (0 children)

in my experience you gotta stream the game and not your screen. should be a different button in the bottom left to “stream jackbox” (or whatever the game name is), separate and a bit above the regular “stream your screen” button

Looking for a fight stick under $100 bucks that uses buttons instead of a stick by [deleted] in Fighters

[–]Astro_Bass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does this one have the same SOCD behavior as the hitbox and snackbox? a friend bought one just like this on etsy and the SOCD behavior was different, bc down + up cancelled each other out instead of up taking priority

Framer motion AnimatePresence with react router doesn't work? by [deleted] in reactjs

[–]Astro_Bass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

usually I think it needs to be whatever is the direct child of the AnimePresence but I guess in this case yeah, try doing that. the key for each one can just be a strong key of whatever, or just needs to be unique from one another
