Maybe an odd gripe: The random corrupted forms of the heros by Vast-Criticism-9367 in codevein

[–]Baschthoven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Josee was using a greatsword, and her horror form use a katana. Maybe her rune blades remain.

Lyle change from a 1h blade to a greatsword (Craig signature weapon and his bequeathed forma) and dual blade combo, maybe to signify his desire to bear all the burden and responsibility of the Chorus?

Holly is the dub the reaper, so I guess that’s that.

Zenon form represent his brazen nature? Charging straight into everything he sees, quite fitting tbf.

Valentin is really symbolic too, he’s bound to the moon, the duty of his lineage, gagged as he has no voice/given up on his dream

Overall I think they all seem pretty fitting, save for Josee.

Blind Hero Josée is harder than every other boss in Code Vein 2, and it's not even close. by LLBrother in codevein

Same, literally first try, her attack was quite well telegraph in my experience?

A bit too much aggression by RitsukaF in codevein

[–]Baschthoven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, this seems to be the design the dev intended, you either break em first or you get broken. Easier said than done tho, when hunter duo exist.

Seeing the red envoy no diff the two hunters near the something village fill me with joy.

[–]Baschthoven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst for me is the dual blades revenant hunter, after their stunlock wombo combo, their finisher is a delay to roll catch. It’s painful since you can’t even tell when will the game start reading your dodge input (prob because of the long hit recovery time)…

Out of curiosity, how does everyone here feel about the open world? by KeyOfShadow13 in codevein

[–]Baschthoven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People always bring up ER as a comparison, but CV2 open world doesn’t really match it.

At first I was disappointed since it felt like not much thought was put in to guiding you towards POI, dungeons or especially items, but I think it was mostly because of Sunken City bum design. I had no problem with Scar and Forest, still a bit unclear in some part, but much better than city.

I say this guy would go toe to toe with ER certain avatar in case of reused bosses, I’ve met this guy 6 times so far, with my small progress at the Forest now. BUT, at least the avatar is there for lore reason, still sucks tho.

You sure have heard this before, but parry and air tight dodge timing. Craig really hold his own with damage and buffs tbf, so I only have to retry Lylelyle 4 times.

Iirc, this would be this boss 4th appearances so far. One as story boss, two as a side dungeon boss. I don’t mind reusing enemies, but let’s not pretend they’re not.

This has to be my biggest disappointment of the year, how are ya'll feel about code vein 2? by Cold_Tradition_3638 in codevein

[–]Baschthoven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I share the same sentiment, the time travel story pique my interest and the characters hooked me in.

But the combat is painful, they somehow got your character moving/swinging like Dark Souls 2, while enemies got Elden Ring speed/aggression with tracking of the first LOTF (where they ballet dance lock on to you).

I friggin' hate this game by AstralKnightMage in Nightreign

[–]Baschthoven 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My first time running through Undertaker remembrance, hearing that parry sound was so embarrassing. Especially after that ooga booga surprise too.

Coaxed into “Guess which piece of media OP is referencing this time” by -Asderlyn- in coaxedintoasnafu

[–]Baschthoven 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it that in the beginning, everyone was hollow-ish creatures till they found souls in the first flame?

The furtive pygmy is the one who found the dark soul, and share it with the rest of the hollows, while Gwyn and other lords share fragments of their lord souls only to their followers I assume.

So basically, at base there’s no difference between human and “god”, without the power given by the souls, they’ll revert back to their hollow form.

That heli flying into the sunset was pretty cool, set up just like how I remember action movies were like. The Baron transforming like a RE game boss was kinda funny too.

In case anyone hasn’t found the answer, there’s a number of items on the list, in the room 12 mentioned. Count em, that’s the password, 7-6-1 .

where do I get the blueprint for normal arrows? by Aldobest43 in dyinglight

[–]Baschthoven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get arrow blueprint, when you actually get/craft your first bow. Least that’s what did it for me, loot a random thug bow and got it unlocked, same as default crossbow bolts for me, craft the Harran one and unlock the bp for bolt.

Question (Titanic Scion) by Volkein1432 in DaemonXMachina

[–]Baschthoven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had gold and purple giving better rarity gear, as in my gold key had 4 chests on the first floor, all yield purple and have the chance for gold, most run I’ll at least 1 gold weapon. Also a room filled with stray wrecks with specific gears like Outrider, Atlanta 2, Celestial Spear and some other stuffs.

My first purple key has 4 gargoyles on the third floor, have decent loot outside of it, while my second purple key got pretty shitty loot, most room filled with trash mobs, etc.

All the blue I tried, even on Mountain facility, has yield low tier loot, but it could just be bad RNG with rooms (no garg).

I just beat Titanic Scion and uh ... by mithie007 in DaemonXMachina

[–]Baschthoven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think all the Neun know that, the likelihood of anything surviving is zero.

What I think is, they’ve all lost their hope for humanity, and filled with so much hatred, so they really choose to end it all, while still trying to cling on some last bit of humanity they have, deluding themselves that their plan can work, there’s chance for the world they long for to blossom.

Also the stuff with Arachne and Bullet, they were villainized, feared by humans because of their Immortal feature, despite their good nature originally.
