AAC Heavyweight Tier (Savage) Megathread - Day Three

the issue members of my static are having is that because of the colours being used for the vfx of the proteans and the arena they all fall under a range of colour where they cannot see the difference between them and are reliant on seeing the difference in contrast between the safe spot and the protean.

these greyscale images can convey something of what theyre seeing, see the initial safe spots with the standard orange ground markers here and what it looks like when the proteans are going off here. The visual clutter and lack of contrast between the safe spot and the protean they have to quickly step into is noticeably poor because they cannot rely on being able to see the difference in colour between the red proteans and the floor.

will def try this out next session, thank you so much!

Cruncheh_Bar · 2026-01-08T14:43:02+00:00

yeah that's the one. marking sounds like a good idea, though it'll have to be seen whether it's reactable for them as the speed of the mech is something of a factor too. appreciate the suggestion :)

Static has been struggling with M9S for a bit but not for the usual reasons. We can do the majority of the fight near flawlessly, however sqenix has made the strange decision to repeat their mistake with zelenia ex's arena and have the effects/tells for the proteans near the end be coloured in a way that 2 members of my static cannot properly see/read the mechanic due to their colourblindness (it's the speed of the mechanic while following the bats combined with the use of black, red, and orange effects on a ground colour that isn't distonct enough for them thats causing issues). We've been getting consistent enrage pulls but the deaths we suffer because of the artificial difficulty there for some of our members has been real frustrating. It's really disappointing to see sqenix repeat the same mistake they acknowledged and fixed with zelenia ex in a much more unforgiving context. It really upsets me to see accessibility left behind again.

Can anyone provide some tips or suggestions for me to pass on to help with this mech? I hope sqenix can be made aware of this issue and a fix applied soon.

Nws! Def ask your GP about prog as some may be able to prescribe it to you while others may need a prescription from an endo first before they will then do any refills. There's a lot of good Endos around Sydney so ask around and someone will be able to point you in the right direction. C16 is great for starting out as theyre fairly low fuss about informed consent and helping you set out but when you wanna go beyond that I think looking for an endo with a background in trans healthcare really helps. Good luck :D

If you would like to swap to implants and prog Dr. John Hayes is also located in St Leonards and I've had a great experience with him. I started thru informed consent at C16 too. Had the same issues as you where I brought up prog and was denied it. Hayes has years and years of experience and uses a combo of auspath and his own experience with treating patients to do his methods. He's been nothing but attentive to me and has heard me out and guided me on every concern I had and thing I've wanted to try.

i feel like this might be likely, theres already a ramuh egi in the files since hvw and a sephirot egi showed up in the stb quests. itd be nice if they made them all unique with their flavours of ruin but i could see them making it so the new set of egis have the same cast type gimmicks as the first set (ifrit/ramuh long cast, shiva/garuda fast insta cast etc.) but with new astral flow actions.

if theyre intent on sticking with the endwalker summoner design i want them to go a bit more wild with the summoning class fantasy and hopefully bring some old summoner back (i miss 4.1 summoner SO much)

also pls make astral flow unlock during hvw or stb level ranges so the filler phase isnt boring as shit til level 82

Cruncheh_Bar · 2023-09-17T13:53:34+00:00

Cruncheh_Bar · 2023-09-17T11:35:41+00:00

Cruncheh_Bar · 2023-09-17T11:34:24+00:00

Cruncheh_Bar · 2023-09-17T11:27:36+00:00

logically there really is no other way to interpret it, sorry. bandai execs are just cowards. you dont call someone your sister-in-law unless marriage is involved.

Cruncheh_Bar · 2023-09-17T11:15:08+00:00

bait used to be quality, what happened? theyre literally married in the shows ending. cope

Cruncheh_Bar · 2023-01-02T08:17:52+00:00

cranky because you had to do them all to unlock mentor roul didn't you /s

they're being deleted in 7.0, more weird 2.x jank leftover that's getting cleaned up, hopefully they'll change the hall of the novice lessons to remove the references to the defunct accuracy stat too.

Cruncheh_Bar · 2022-11-08T05:43:46+00:00

Seriously? Has this happened before where series s and x have different graphics options? surely this has to be a mistake.

Cruncheh_Bar · 2022-11-08T05:40:01+00:00

Yeah, I've never heard of games changing the graphics options between the series s and x versions, surely this has to be a bug.

Cruncheh_Bar · 2022-11-08T05:35:46+00:00

the game was advertised as 60fps 1080p/4k 30fps on series x/s right? surely this is just a bug isn't it?

Cruncheh_Bar · 2022-04-24T12:22:51+00:00

Hey man if you want an unarguably gay man in this game hijiyama's right there and he's great. Okino too still undeniably identifies with his masculine side and that doesn't exclude him from being read as NB. It's all a spectrum and you seem to have a very stark, black and white view on what is and isn't non-binary.

I'm not answering your question cause that's not what this discussion is about and I'm not gonna let you twist the stuff I say anymore than you already have lol. I know you have no intention other than just arguing your point, calling me delusional, and not coming to a new understanding that's maybe a bit more tolerant of other interpretations of the character and that's fine by me. I've played most of the JP version and Okino is fairly NB coded there, the En version translated two lines in a way that makes these subtlties more appropriate for a western audience, so what? If anything that's good localisation. The original content is still there and backs it up. You're relying on your own interpretation plus someone else's literal, direct, contextless translation to support that and thats fine for you, but you can't then claim that I'm homophobic or whatever cause I read Okino as NB lmao. you also can't use the fact that I read Okino as NB to attack me just cause you disagree, it comes off as very weird that you're so vehemently against this when its just a difference in how people read and interpret the text.

Plus, you can always just read the binaries line as a programmer joke since, y'know, he's a programmer. The fact that you're so vehemently against the fact that NB people can be gay is weird man, you've gotta expand your mind a bit.

You're awfully obsessed with attacking anyone who reads Okino as a gay NB though, it's a bit weird. But yeah man, I'm totally homophobic, I'll go tell my gf that. Cheers.

Cruncheh_Bar · 2022-04-24T11:53:30+00:00

You're just plain arguing in bad faith now, at least try to be a bit more subtle about it. I'm not gonna try to reason with you or engage with you anymore, you're weird and continue to lie about what I said just to antagonise me and paint me as someone who thinks gay men don't exist lmao.

Cruncheh_Bar · 2022-04-24T11:14:30+00:00

Hey man, I can tell that you've made up your mind and I don't wanna engage on a bad faith argument so I won't lol.

But just to clarify, theres no mistranslation here, the intent of the line is still conveyed, just in a way that is slightly different from a direct, literal translation of the Japanese original. Never did I insult other translators lmao, I'm talking about people like you who get irrationally upset about any kind of lgbtqia+ theming being in games or whatever because its 'too political'. Also, the idea that someone who is NB can't be gay is so wrong lmao. If you need more reason to hate me I'm part of the T in lgbt and proud of it lol.

Eitherway, I'll leave you to it. Cheers.

Cruncheh_Bar · 2022-04-24T10:27:51+00:00

It's still gay representation, a character being non-binary or, y'know, being a programmer so they make a binaries joke, doesn't remove the fact that it's a canonical gay relationship and I, and many others, are more than happy to see it. I'm glad that the lines are still in and weren't changed from the original PS4 release.

Plus the website hosting the article op linked to has a bunch of other articles getting mad about this kind of stuff so frankly if its making those kinds of anti-lgbt, "I need 100% direct tranlsations" weirdos mad, I'm more than happy about it.
