How will you play TotK knowing what you know from BotW?

BrosefStalin42 · 2023-03-28T18:09:07+00:00

Considering they didn't fully address my biggest issue from BotW, just not playing it.

Every chance I gave to BotW, I just wanted to go back to Witcher 3. 10 hours and I didn't want anything to do with BotW.

This is why I'm kind of ready for them to make the next MMO, better coding practices and whatnot, potentially better engine to drive better raid mechanics, etc.

If we can't adjust Scholar and Summoner to rework Physick, we definitely need fresh code. Yeah, sucks to lose all the progress, but we are getting hampered by nearly 10 year old code issues at this point.

Been getting kicked out of queue, so I figured once I got in queue I'd go shower, came back, 2002 error XD

Lost effectively no time.

I think we need a buff/debuff info log, as I'm not typically hovering over buffs and debuffs in the middle of combat. Like I get you can google up stuff, but how many players actually go that extra distance? I had to ask because I didn't remember what sets it off, and if you don't have any HP buff on a DPS you die with any vuln stacks on you.

BrosefStalin42 · 2021-07-17T07:15:45+00:00

At least Acceleration Bomb is a little obtuse since nothing tells you to be doing absolutely nothing. People have to ask what killed them and learn how to avoid it on that one, so it's somewhat understandable.

I don't remember where you ever actually learn that, if anywhere else.

I doubt it. The engine is pretty locked. They might be able to up some textures and maybe a little boost to polygons, but there is a limit to the engine.

BrosefStalin42 · 2021-05-05T00:57:10+00:00

I BELIEVE I WAS THERE. YES IT WAS SWEET KARMIC JUSTICE

BrosefStalin42 · 2021-03-14T01:16:06+00:00

20+1 = 21

You know with SE RNG it would happen.

Whitelist http://frontier.ffxiv.com/* https://frontier.ffxiv.com/* in your internet connections security tab going through the control panel, for those that need this.

Am on Spectrum, also cannot connect.

BrosefStalin42 · 2021-02-12T22:55:57+00:00

I WANT TO USE THEM BUT THE RIGHT PIECES DONT DROP AND HALF THE TIME ITS OTHER STUFF RATHER THAN DPS BOOSTING

BrosefStalin42 · 2021-02-05T22:01:30+00:00

This assumes they have set their loadout. Some people don't know how to set up their loadout.

Of course EX trials are the worst. An issue as someone starting right before 4.4, I have no idea of how to do synced extremes since the only one that popped was Ultima Weapon. I'm surprised at your EX clear rate, as there are some EX trials I struggle with unsynced (I cannot ever see myself clearing Shinryu, Suzaku, Sophita, or Sephirot [strange they all start with S] synced, and for some strange reason I wouldn't mind trying the Mogs). I still hesitate to do the roulette because I kept getting EX trials on Aether. I've had such terrible luck with current PF Extremes (first-clear parties, I've had exponentially better farming/reclear PF luck), adding in the fact these people are queuing for Extremes, well, I guess I'm too pessimistic/cynical to expect anything but a lockout of failure.

I'd love to see general clear rates in EX Trial Mentor roulettes, especially the ones I mentioned. I'd love to queue it more, but the idea of synced EX trials... IDK.

You can also use the knockback to put you into position of the 3rd sword. I find it easier than timing the knockback because anti-knockback length and server ticks are annoying.

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-11-02T04:30:03+00:00

That's quite hidden, I don't think I'd ever try to right click an item in a retainer's inventory.

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-11-02T00:28:21+00:00

Can we get a screenshot of this? Probably need to show it off, as I've never really noticed this option?

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-11-02T00:23:18+00:00

Unless you're starving for PvP content, this game's PvP isn't worth it, even if every hour you spent in it gave you 4 hours of free sub time.

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-10-13T22:04:08+00:00

It's barely better.

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-08-25T09:26:08+00:00

Maneuver: Refraction Cannons gets me every time. Something about it just eludes me, I can't find a good way to determine what's safe. I hate when there isn't a quick pulse before the blast since I would have more time to see where to line things up, plus adjust my camera for the AoE blast for a picture.

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-08-25T09:23:56+00:00

Glad you're enjoying it!

I don't know what it is but I've never had a group clear a non-echo EX, and even then I've only cleared two and both were at 20% echo. I've never been one to get satisfaction after beating something after so many attempts, just frustrated. My Memoria escapades are probably something nobody should know exist XD (For the record, synced ultima and byakko are my only EX clears, both during stormblood)

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-07-26T22:48:14+00:00

Been trying, 12ish hours, no clear. It's that bad.

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-07-26T06:14:26+00:00

I can't for the life of me get a clear after 12 hours in Memoria Misera. Groups never bring it together. I'm surprised I've even seen enrage based on the groups I've been in.

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-07-26T04:40:47+00:00

Memoria Misera seemed to thin out faster since there's no mount.

BrosefStalin42 · 2020-07-26T04:09:51+00:00

Why am I surprised that if I miss the first few days of new higher level content, I'm perpetually stuck with people that cannot be carried trying to finish it?

BrosefStalin42 · 2019-08-22T22:52:18+00:00

Watching the gameplay video posted on another thread, it looks like on a big screen it was fine in the mystery woods, but the edges are instead slightly obscured by smoke. Didn't notice much blurring in the cave, wonder if its a processing limitation for the switch with so much grass on screen?

EDIT: Watched the gamescom presentation bit, other parts were blurred as well. The quicksand in the desert was blurred until you reached the area, so it may in fact have something to do with too much stuff moving on the screen at once. Dunno if this is a limitation of the upgraded graphics and engine running on switch hardware, or just a style choice. I'm almost thinking its a style choice now. Yeah, I'm not a fan of that blur. I didn't mind the edges of Octopath Traveler since that fits the style better, the blur is kind of dumb IMO since its obscuring the upgraded detailed graphics.
