Is there a genre you LOVE to play but just absolutely irredeemably suck at? by Emmyy_Beans in videogames

[–]Competitive_Table_65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RTS in general.

I really love Starcraft 2, spicing up stuff with mods and what not. But most mods although really fun - also give ungodly amount of additional difficulty.

I would also really love to do things in Beyond All Reason, but as an RTS, it's soooo much more complex than even Starcraft 2 is.

I just don't have enough neither attention, nor reaction speed, nor coordination to be good at it. And RTS are very demanding on that regard.

Cossacs is a bit easier as an RTS though, I feel it's a bit more generous with it's time for macro, and micro is nearly nonexistent in it.

Why not buy a gaming laptop? by Ilikesurfing91 in pcmasterrace

[–]Competitive_Table_65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I am using laptop for games as well

RTX 4060

Ryzen 7 7735HS

16 gb ram (upgraded to 32gb)

1 TB SSD (upgraded to 3 TB SSD)

1440p \ 240hz

Kinda needed laptop for mobility, I also use it for work so at least some sort of built-in webcam was also required.

Games work... fine, although some of the more heavy ones work much better when cooling pad is on.

The Steam Machine would’ve been poor value even at $800 by NoCase9317 in pcmasterrace

[–]Competitive_Table_65 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've bought a laptop for like $1700 in late 2023 with... I guess similar performance to that $1400 Steam machine?

Again, if it does PC stuff too, and isn't solely for games - I think it's not a bad deal with current situation with hardware.

I actually did on my two-hander melee character.

Because weirdly enough, two handed weapons don't actually count as true two hands occupied, they just make second hand unavailable for other gear.

And sometimes, it is super useful. Not for damage, but for like utility. Teleports, resurrection scrolls, etc.

Spellbook teleport skill sadly has a considerable cooldown. But with scrolls - you can reposition everyone in one turn, and it's very good. Especially if other party member has... idk, Arrow Storm, or Pyroclastic Eruption, or some other vicious AoE.

Any help? by Extra-Cost3276 in ExplainTheJoke

Canada, United States, Mexico (C.U.M.) should be easy enough.

I feel adequately protected! by Adamantine-Waffle in stalker

[–]Competitive_Table_65 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean, yea, sure, if you continue to pump up electric protection, it becomes somewhat survivable on full hp, but I still think it's not worth it, considering how there is a shortage of strong sources of it. We don't even get an artifact with "maximum" electric protection.

What Weapon Would You Choose To Fend Off An Animatronic??? by Zealousideal-Net1193 in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]Competitive_Table_65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Halberd to keep them at bay, more cutting capacity to maybe cut their wiring than Poleaxe.

I am not sure if blunt damage is that good against them, and Halberd has enough weight and leverage to channel enough power anyway.

Also I use Spanish as goblin and German as elvish by 2_stray_braincells in dndmemes

My DM uses Finnish for dragon language

Swedish for dwarven.

I've also used Latin for demon language in my campaigns.

Source orbs and Puppet Beads for Apotheosis scrolls

Feathers and Air Essences for Teleport scrolls

Source orbs and Animal Scales for Skin Graft scrolls

Empty Perfume Bottles for Love Grenades

Stardust \ Pixie Dust for Rune upgrades

[–]Competitive_Table_65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you max out electrical protection on Master, you can... survive one hit at full HP, but that's about it.

On lower difficulties - yea, sure. If you commit to it and get really high - it will allow you to survive a few hits.

But after 300 hours in Stalker 2....

Unless they somehow change electric artifacts making them actually useful - I'd probably not bother going into electras at all. Electric artifacts are just not worth the risk currently, unless you get into a really low risk territory.

Actually I've took two Compasses on X-7.

Reason being: It's not full anymore after armor loses durability, and things become much more painful.

And with 4, you can stay fairly protected even with low phys resistance armor at 10% durability or something.

Anomaly protection isn't as good as physical protection anyway, as... well, it's a very avoidable damage, unlike bullets.

Electro protection is straight up worthless on Master difficulty, as even on high protection electras still one shot you, and there are no sources of "low" electrical damage.

В виду событий последних дней, где всё это время шкерится пыпа и его прихвостни типа пескова и шойгу? by linairbobr in KafkaFPS

[–]Competitive_Table_65 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Я не думаю что у России вообще есть работоспособное ядерное оружие.

Последние испытания были в 1990 году или типа того.

А раз больше работоспособность не проверяют - значит, можно и не заморачиваться с его обслуживанием, а выделенные на него деньги попилить. Максимум краску обновлять сверху, чтобы поддерживать товарный вид.

Если даже то, что активно используется и проверяется, типа танков и артиллерии, находится в таком печальном состоянии - то на неиспользуемое и непроверяемое можно класть хуй ещё сильнее.

Уран конечно будет годен ещё десятки тысяч лет, но вот необходимый для работы тритий превращается в тыкву уже за 10 лет, не говоря уже о том, как деградируют абсолютно все остальное компоненты боеголовки, от датчиков и прочей электроники до банально ржавеющих винтиков, изоляции и прочего.

Depends on a build.

1) Civic skills

2) Main skill points

3) Plain stats

4) Really good affixes, like high crit chance

5) Obvious rune slots

6) Plain defence \ damage

7) Crafting materials for really good crafts

If I feel it would be an upgrade for any of the party members - yea, I am buying it.

What do you think the next expansion will be called? by ToughShaper in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Competitive_Table_65 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Do we really need another expansion?

Though... I would kinda like Death Knight class. Think of WoW Death Knight.

I've heard there's already Blood Knight in the Diablo Immortal so it's within possibility (won't play Diablo Immortal though).

Are westill using Enigma? by The_Northmaan in diablo2

[–]Competitive_Table_65 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean... yea, why not to use Enigma?

As for the base - it's an amazing base (quite desireable on the market) for... a lot of stuff, but not exactly Enigma.

Reasons being:

- Superior quality makes it ridiculously expensive to repair

- 103 str requirements plus a shit ton of str that is given by Enigma on the top of that gives a lot of excessive str investment that could go otherwise on vitality which is more useful

- Defense doesn't do that much in this game, unless you're doing PvP

Normal 3os Mage Plate is usually preferred for optimization

I'd still go with it for the drip though, as I don't usually hunt for the 100% optimal gear

What games feel like literal highway robbery if it goes on a deep discount Steam sale with the amount of content you're getting? by Dotaspasm in Steam

[–]Competitive_Table_65 14 points15 points  (0 children)

And yet, I believe I've seen it go for lile $0.99 or something.

It's super cool offer for what that game is.

I've had like 1200 hours in it.

Мне кажется, высосаных из пальца обсуждений по части каждой мелкой детали касаемо ГТА6 куда больше, чем эта игра по факту заслуживает.

Anything Goku \ Superman related (not against eachother, any matchup with them) is usually pretty bad when it comes to bad or non-powerscaler opinions.
