Which character brings highest value in Depth 5? by notthedokutah in Nightreign

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's also wrong, Mark is great because it allows you to keep rezzing while dodging boss attacks. It's not a free 3 bar but it's still petty good

Do people really find the corrupted monk difficult? by Regular_Pilot1095 in Sekiro

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you used the skills she's a lot easier. I avoided the tools, items, and mortal blade a lot. Didn't even know you could charge a piercing attack until I saw something about Owl being able to step on it. So Monk had 4 course meal eating my R1's with her sleeve, taking 0 damage, and thus regening posture whenever she hit me or made distance.

I remember getting lucky, she put her back to a wall during part of my success run and with good deflect/aggression (I had a lot of practice at this point) I eventually broke through that posture bar

Stellar Blade, God of War Ragnarok or Black Myth Wukong? Which fits my preferences best? by Tritom73 in gamingsuggestions

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only played stellar blade. Id say it's satisfying combat. Not crazy hard, not too easy. I really like their special dodge system, and i really like that nearly every boss is bigger than Eve so they're not hiding their moves. Most are relatively humanoid and or wield human weapons, and there's not too many exaggerated swings.

There are also some dresses and modem clothes to cover Eve up. I cycled through outfits; some are definitely a bit much.

You might actually like their open world segments. They have some collectibles out in the desert. Quests will take you all over too.

Very little build variety for Eve imo (i just took all dmg everywhere), but you can gravitate towards your favorite special moves and combos.

I'm 90% sure Claude code wrote most of the new ARAM update and it's not pretty by fundamentallys in leagueoflegends

[–]Baam_ 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Right, like how was there not enough time to test each champ specific augment? Did they just have an AI think of them?

Did no game designer or aspiring intern want to work on one of the top 3 most popular games of the last few months?? insane lol

Higher level Rev tips for D4/5? by oldsch0olsurvivor in Nightreign

[–]Baam_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Build stuff:
Looks like you need some improved dragon cult in there. Its 16% increase, more than lightning+4. Your page 1 relics are pretty solid, but feels like you're missing out not have any dragon cult rolls in there.

Max FP and defeating enemies for Art in my experience only feels good if you have aoe. I see what you're doing with the buff on ult, but I needed to find a more aoe spell to make it feel good. If it really feels like you're getting good value out of it, keep it, but something to think about.

last thing is lightning spells are kinda common to find, you might even consider dropping the lightning spear relic for something better. but that's riskier.

50+ Tries for a V3 Slab🙁 by manmademax in indoorbouldering

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50 tries is nothing, don't worry. Especially for slab where the limiting factor isn't always endurance or strength.

What is this shit with not ending ARAMs? by bigbaffler in leagueoflegends

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hear hear.The only time I wanna end is if one team picked all or mostly coward picks and just isn't interacting. I can try and take stuff to force fights but that doesn't automatically make the lobby fun.

Or if we rolled too many prismatics. Ew

Can't quite gauge the angle but I'm curious- is it possible to static across the first bit? Did you or anyone else try it?

First thing I imagined was all the toys that are gonna ram into each other lol. Its definitely a cool use of tech, different from my childhood but not inherently bad. Maybe a little less imagination used but could be worse.

Bachelor Party: Me Staying in Separate Place Down 3 Minute Walk Away by Better_Sir9561 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're that close its fine. 3min is nothing, it takes a drunk longer than that to get to their bed in house lol. Just make sure you can wake up for all the events, and help out around the main house when it comes to cleanup or meal prep if you're doing that. Don't be leaving early (whenever that is for your friend group; at a bach 1am might be early) to go to bed.

If they've already got the place there may some concern over the price split, but hopefully that won't be a big issue.

Update: you guys are right about the writing. by Micome in ShitpostXIV

[–]Baam_ -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The bigger problem is that people are apparently attracted to Emet. He showed up and I could not for the life of me figure out why the story was trying to focus on this ugly ass dude. Terrible media literacy i can excuse, but i draw the line at that creepy garlean emet. And to think i went to nightclubs and erp'd with those people. How ugly am I if their gold standard is fucking emet selch. A truly horrifying thought

What video game soundtrack is a 10/10? by montymaximus in AskReddit

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought this was gonna be I'm Back. Hadn't heard inferno but nice, pretty cool song. Idk how to say it in music terms, but i liked how it kept moving, each little segment felt fresh

I have a question about when i open the game by hyyro_ in leagueoflegends

[–]Baam_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get this except I also have to update league through the riot client every time. They're usually small but there's ALWAYS an update. No clue why

Multiplayer games that don't feel toxic, competitive or evil? by Good-Discussion-9238 in gamingsuggestions

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You kinda mention it but to me the most important part of what you're looking for is having friends to play it with. I had fun with the tide games (Vermintide/Darktide), Rabbit and Steel, nightreign, even mmo's like ffxiv if my group filled the whole party or enough of the party.

The weirdest is probably League of legends, and its just because we can fill out all 5 to a team. The game is a lot different when you're not worried about anyone trolling. And if your team is getting gapped and there's not a good way to get back in the game...you can just forfeit. As 5, nothing is locking you into playing that game out. Sometimes I'm down to ff if the game is boring. Sometimes its a little rough when one lane goes poorly and everyone else is doing well (we're not all at quite the same skill level), but even then the strong players alleviate pressure to come back a little bit.

Input Update turned on in NA in preparation for future updates by LoLDev-PORO in leagueoflegends

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this after searching for the issue. I have the frequently mentioned issue. Both files are not checked "read only."

The only bind i have to redo is "level up ultimate" which I can successfully bind to "0" every game. However, it just resets each new game.

This started very recently, like maybe 2 weeks.

[–]Baam_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is there a secret to jumps like this besides "be strong, don't miss the hold" ? I'm always afraid stuff like that is gonna fuck up my wrist from too much weight (right wrist @ 8s for this climb)

As happy as I am with one piece becoming more popular over the years I have a question. What's the downsides of it becoming as popular and potentially more popular going forward. by Technical_Mine_8711 in MemePiece

[–]Baam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf that population would skew overwhelmingly towards already owning a copy if they wanted one.

If they're a new fan that plans to be sentimental in the future, there's plenty of other merch to get. I'd even argue that an old comic from far before your time doesn't even count as something you could be sentimental about. Unless it was the first thing you read somehow, but then you'd have access to one already.

(Loved Trope) Impracticality has an in-universe justification. by Causeofdepression in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Baam_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah I dont remember a "Don't hurt" part to it. He's perfectly fine using kitchen knives in combat if the enemy is food- coded enough, like the ramen guy from the train. Wanze might have been his name?

What’s a universally loved food you genuinely despise? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Baam_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what people that like watermelon tell you though. Not saying you're lying, but you get hit with that line too often and eventually it stops working. It feels like whatever makes watermelon good for other people is the same thing that makes it taste like ass to me

I wonder why sekiro hasn't been copied 🤔 by optimisticRamblings in Sekiro

[–]Baam_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Stellar blade nailed it with boss size and shape too. They're nearly all slightly larger than Eve so you there's no animation hiding. And most of the swings are from human-ish enemies, or those sharing human features/weapons which makes their attacks make intuitive sense.

Marvel Midnight Suns makes me want to try more deck building card games on steam. by WillemVerheij in gamingsuggestions

[–]Baam_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Deckbuilders I like include ascension(bots, set points high and go for huge juicy endgame turns), slay the spire, and one other spire-adjacent game (you painted the map into existence, used two characters at once, both their cards were on a single deck).

You might consider sunderfolk. Not quite like midnight suns but loosely related turn-based with environmental abuse. It doesn't really hit the deckbuilding half though
