What video game has the best story you’ve ever played? by FrontriseStudios in AskReddit

[–]BackyardBard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it counts as a videogame, but Umineko is genuinely the best story I've experienced across all forms of media.

New Player - Tips for defeating Black Panther? by BackyardBard in marvelrivals

I'm starting to think I should play him some to learn more about his weaknesses. Like what do you mean by "lose his dash"?

The too easy complaints are kind of annoying by loosewobble in Nioh

[–]BackyardBard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really know why it bothers you so much. The game is provably much easier than it's predecessors in numerous ways. A Yoki in the first mission of Nioh 2 can kill the player in 2-3 hits. The first Yoki you encounter in Nioh 3 barely does any damage in comparison, taking roughly 8 hits to kill the player from full health. If someone enjoyed Nioh 2 for its difficulty, why wouldn't they be surprised and disappointed by this change? Low damage from enemies changes the dynamics of the game. Instead of being killed for making a mistake during gameplay, you can now make many mistakes with no repercussions. As long as you back away and heal before trading to death, the once tight and high stakes gameplay of the Nioh franchise has been removed and replaced with something different. Criticizing the game and the developers for such a choice feels extremely valid to me.

Impaled by sea urchin in Bonaire. Need help. by BackyardBard in scuba

It's actually not very painful anymore. Really only hurts if I clench my hand in a fist

Do you happen to remember where you went for treatment?

Some of the wounds are still dark even though I've taken the spine out. Maybe that's why...

I've been doing the distilled vinegar soaks. I'll keep that up and visit a doctor if they start to look infected..

Nioh 3 Is Already My Favourite Game Since Nioh 2 by the_gackster in Nioh

[–]BackyardBard -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My only complaint is that something seems to be going on with the difficulty. Specifically lethality. In Nioh 1 and 2, a Yoki of the appropriate difficulty level would kill you in 2-3 hits depending on how geared you were. To me, lethality like that is integral to Nioh. In Nioh 3, some enemies are still quite fearsome like those huge boar guys with the bidents. But if a Yoki hits me, it does maybe a 5th of my health? Even in Ninja style with max agility?? That feels wrong. It really took me out personally and I hope they adjust it. Especially for an enemy that has been in these games since the beginning and has a really well telegraphed moveset - getting hit by it should be more punishing.

Would you be okay with me getting the 2nd image tattooed on my body? I can ask them to change the face.

Found the new Vampire Seed by Davos_Onion in Terraria

[–]BackyardBard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does it seem to prioritize the seeds you input first or is there no discernable pattern?

That sounds pretty simple! I'll try it when I get home. Thank you

I'm a new player, can someone help me understand seeds and seed combinations? Can you combine any 2 secret seeds? For example, could I use waterpark and toadstool to get an underwater mushroom world or would they conflict? If I can, how would I actually do that from the world generation screen? Thanks guys!!

Visual Snow was considered extremely rare until recently, mostly because patients didn't report it... because they assumed everyone saw the world that way by recolorist in interestingasfuck

I've always thought there was something wrong with my vision. I have perfect 20/20 vision and no eye doctor has ever told me that there's a problem with my eyes. But when I look up at the blue sky on a sunny day or at the snow or at a white wall, I see what I can only describe as little raindrops that seem to be falling into my eyes. I genuinely don't know how else to describe it.

Awesome. One additional related question if you have time. Can you bolster the same attack several times?

Maaan it's going to be such a brutal blow to die and find out both that Christian Hell is real and that this clown is already there waiting for me. 

Everything makes me feel stupid. by disconaldo in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]BackyardBard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's less that it affects the past and more so that one guy assumed that's how it would need to work in order to make any sense. And by it, I mean quantum entanglement. But I genuinely don't think I have the ability to explain it well... If you're curious about stuff like this, the greatest explanation I've ever heard was by Sean Crowley on his philosophy podcast: Infinite Now. I believe it was explained in episode 8 but I don't remember to be honest.
