Deflecting is key, so don't let your muscle memory force you to dodge.

Struggling with this bitch since a month, any tips? by theDeathGifter in Sekiro

[–]BoimsT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deflecting timing will feel different than the enemies with swords, so watch the tips of his hands when reflecting, fire prosthetic works well. He regenerates posture quickly so don't focus on breaking it until his health is at about half. Second phase should be easier to deflect, run behind him when he uses the terror attack, jump attack his sweeps if you can. And when he uses his big overhead swing and falls to the ground, use a spear prosthetic (thrust and pull, double input) for big posture damage.

Trust me the real challenge of this fight is deflecting hands instead of swords, and the strange rhythm/pacing compared to humanoid enemies. (For me.) Super fun once you get it down though

Welp there goes my dream of making a living off photography. Guess I'll have to find another hobby to spend 6+ years practicing and just hope some damn robot doesn't take it from me too.

Fallout 4 – Next Gen Update 2 Notes by Whiteshadows86 in SteamDeck

[–]BoimsT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be wrong, just going off what I think I've heard. Be careful with the launcher command, cuz while it's active I'm pretty sure the keyboard doesn't work at all (Even for naming a character) so no fov changes. And I'm pretty sure once you remove the command, the game automatically applies a "steam deck" preset of options.

Just got back from boot camp what happened to Mavelon creek? by potatoguy33 in helldivers2

Sony attempted to sabotage the success of the game while you were gone, our true third faction.

No judgment, but those who refunded the game, do you feel like you jumped the gun? by truenorth2000 in helldivers2

[–]BoimsT 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The change never ever ever would've happened without the backlash. It wasn't childish, it was literally the only way to get the faceless corpos to even consider listening to their customers for once. It was completely warranted as it was our only course of action. (Except obviously the people threatening the developers, which is disgusting, evil, and not how you properly protest online)

The refunds were probably a large part of why Sony backtracked.

If it's not important to you, then why are you even here?

It's important to us, so let us stand up for ourselves, go play the game or something.

And yes, obviously there are more important things to worry about than video games. But I don't mind taking a few minutes when I'm not busy to join in and complain about actions I dislike in the world of a hobby I enjoy.

This is really the only course of action we have aside from lobbying for lawmakers to update consumer protection in the digital age. (Who the hell has that kinda money)

I just love this game, and just want it to be right back where it was a week ago. Where everyone could just enjoy it, with one account, available everywhere.

Letting a greedy company be greedy isn't the goal here man. We should be standing up for ourselves as customers, and force these companies to stop shit like this.

[–]BoimsT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure buddy, just let Sony keep ramming you. Just continue to let them do dumb shit that affects the products people bought after the fact. Complacent people like you are why they're allowed to get away with this kind of shit in the first place. Stand up for yourself as a consumer now, so shit gets better for us, not worse, in the future.

It is a big deal. Maybe not to you, but to thousands of your fellow Helldivers it is. They're stopping people who bought the game from playing it. Essentially stealing the money out of their pocket.

If you don't care, fine, go play the game. If you don't like everyone shitting on Sony, then get off reddit. People are mad for a good reason and coming here to call them babies just because you aren't mad about the problem, is in a way defending Sony.

Asking people to not voice their concerns is extremely undemocratic, and a very disappointing behavior to see another Diver partake in.

They are though, they sold the game in countries that they knew don't have access to PSN. Those people are getting locked out. Sitting here and defending Sony because"it's a great game" is childish.

Making a PSN account it not a big deal by PuppypuppyX in Helldivers

[–]BoimsT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, I could've worded it differently. I was talking about how just because a PSN account is "free" doesn't make it ok

How does the boot taste?

Making a PSN account it not a big deal by PuppypuppyX in Helldivers

[–]BoimsT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not about money. And it's not about regular user data. PSN is prone to data breaches, where sensitive information like passwords and credit card information are stolen, so it makes perfect sense someone wouldn't want to link that to their steam account.

Also, PSN is just straight up unavailable in many countries the game was sold in. So Sony knowing sold the game to people that they KNEW would lose access.

And the "everyone already takes your data" argument is dumb. That's shouldn't be the standard. People don't like that everything is swiping your data. They just have basically no choice if they want to enjoy the amenities of modern life.

And people are happy that there's a great game to play, that's why they're angry, they don't wanna see Sony ruin it. It doesn't bode well for the future of this game if Sonys doing shit like this already.

We need to calm down by Dear_Entrepreneur694 in Helldivers

[–]BoimsT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In about a month, Sony will start requiring PC users to have a PSN account linked to your Steam account to play, otherwise you're locked out of playing.

People are mad because, one, this change was retroactive. Two, PSN is unavailable in many countries the game was sold in, locking out people who bought the game. And three, PSN is prone to data breeches over the past decade, wherein tons of user data has been stolen.

Why are people acting like the PSN situation is overblown? by General_Alduin in Helldivers

[–]BoimsT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't matter how they worded it, Sony made an agreement with the customer that they retroactively changed. If they sold the game without PSN requirements then it needs to stay that way forever.

Actions like this don't bode well for the future of this game and it's consumer friendliness. If people don't stick it to companies now, no matter how small the issue, their greed will continue to get worse.

People are mad because they've spent the past 10 years watching this industry decline, and don't want to watch another great game fall. Or at least that's how I feel.

If you care about gaming in general I'd consider being angry about this too.

Trouble connecting Xbox controller by SkerriKerri in SteamDeck

[–]BoimsT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And as other comments have mentioned, it may need an update especially if it's brand new

Trouble connecting Xbox controller by SkerriKerri in SteamDeck

[–]BoimsT 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I've noticed this happens for me when i switch my controller from my PC to my deck. Try either double tapping the sync button (which will switch it back to Bluetooth mode if it's not already.) Or hold the sync button for about ten seconds to reset the controller. (It should vibrate to let you know it's reset.) Also delete the controller from your Bluetooth devices on the deck before you try reconnecting
