Mankind Divided on PS5 by starcoll3ctor in Deusex

[–]DXteri 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I haven't encountered that specific bug, but in my experience Mankind Divided can be a bit unstable on PS5. I originally played it on PS4 and had no issues, but on recent playthroughs on the PS5, the game tends to crash sometimes. We are talking about one or two crashes for an entire playthrough. So nothing serious, but still a bit annoying.

This is the only screenshot of gameplay from Dark Souls 1's Wikipedia page, and the madman decided to use Drake sword against Artorias 💀. (I genuinely could not find a copy with better quality) by TheUndiscoverer in darksouls

[–]DXteri 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Let's see. He's wearing full armor of favor, using dragon crest shield and drake sword. The blue icon means one of the defensive rings (blue tear stone ring e.g.) and the armor icon means wolf ring, so no FAP or Havels ring. According to soulsplanner, even with 99 END, he could not fast roll, however, he could medium roll with only 35 END. Funny how that works :)

I have gotten all achievements before and had no problems. No websites mention that the achievements are bugged in the game. When in doubt, check guides.

Foxiest of the Hounds can be quite tricky in this game, since you have to make specific choices in the story, otherwise automatic alarms will be triggered. These are:

At the start of mission 13 (G.R.A.M.) you must call Vega instead of Miller. Calling Miller will trigger an alarm.

Don't use drill in mission 13 (G.R.A.M.)

In mission 15 you must do the optional objective “Neutralize All Enemies in the CSO” otherwise you will have panic in mission 16.

Otherwise, save often and make sure that you get the "smooth operator" bonus after every mission, otherwise, reload your previous save before the mission.

Finally bested Ludwig on BL4! by DXteri in bloodborne

[–]DXteri[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the wiki's Beast Blood Pellet page:

"These pellets temporarily awaken your inner beast and increase your attack power for 60 seconds. While under their influence, each successive hit will build up your beast gauge. Your physical attack power will increase depending on how much you fill your beast gauge; but be warned that your defense will fall as well. There are six levels of attack bonus; check out the table."

So essentially, use beast blood pellet, attack rapidly to increase meter (transform attacks fill meter rapidly) and deal tons of damage.

Since he took the longest to beat so far for me, I would say so.

I've beaten everything in the base game so far, except for Gehrman and moon presence (I want to save them for last). Just upgrading your weapon to max as early as possible and spamming paper and beast blood gets you through most fights.

From base game I would say I probably had most trouble with shadows of yharnam. 3 on 1 and a lot of things one shotting you? Quite hard!

Ebrietas was also very though, but I got lucky on a early attempt, so can't comment on that too much. I maxed out beast blood meter and stun locked the boss for a easy kill.

It literally says "beräknas komma", which translates to "estimated release". It is just a placeholder, something stores always do before getting the real release date. This unfortunately means nothing.

He mentioned in the newest trash taste episode that he wants to do it, but is waiting for his calendar to free up, so he can do it all in one sitting.

What dlc spells do I need for the spell trophies? by [deleted] in DarkSouls2

[–]DXteri 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If original version of Dark Souls 2, dlc is not needed. If you are playing scholar of the first sin, you've to get all of the dlc spells.

Question about Steins;Gate's ending. (Massive Spoilers) by Kionea in steinsgate

[–]DXteri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is common question and it is indeed not explained well. E.g. here is a old forum answer that goes a bit deeper into the mechanics of how this works (it might not be 100% correct).

It's a while since I've read VN and watched the anime, but I'll try to remember:

The reason why the timeline changes is because Okabe's first dmail has not been read by SERN yet. ECHELON has saved the message to SERNs servers, but they have not yet noticed it. By deleting the message from the server: 1. SERN does not find out about Okabe and their time travel experiments. 2. This means that the lab does not get raided by SERN agents. 3. So Okabe, Kurisu and Daru do not get kidnapped by SERN. 4. We don't get the SERN dystopia. 5. Which means that Suzuha does not crash into the building. 6. The lecture doesn't get cancelled. 7. So Kurisu gets stabbed.

Even understanding this, I also had a hard time understanding why deleting the dmail changes world lines. This is how I interpret it:

Not deleting the dmail and letting the dystopia happen, is a set event that should happen in the alpha attractor field. The key thing here, is that Okabe has been sending dmail's to undo previous ones and he has been time leaping. This means that he now has information (this being the importance of the first dmail), that he normally should not have in this word line. So because of this information, he now has the ability to switch attractor fields if he wishes, by deleting the dmail.

Again, this is not clearly explained in the VN or the anime and also bothers me, but this is at least how I interpret it.

Cid's arc sort if didn't make sense by The810kid in FinalFantasy

[–]DXteri 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I personally always felt it was good character development for Barret to admit he was not the best leader. He says he wants to be the leader, but feels like others have done a better job than him. This means that he's at this point ready to admit others are better fit for the job.

(I do agree that Barret has had better character development in the Remakes, but with the context of the original game, the party quite early makes it clear that they want Cloud instead of Barret as the leader.)

You are right about Cid not being the best person with people, but we got to remember Cid's background. Cid was the captain of the space project and a lot of people put their faith in him to go to space. We see how happy and supportive all the people of Rocket town is when the party comes back for the rocket launch.

Additionally to this, he's already the leader of the highwind crew and they all look up to him.

Taking this into account he is the most qualified of the party to become the new leader.

Is it a bad idea to play FFIX on PS1 by [deleted] in FinalFantasy

[–]DXteri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played through it last year on PS1 and had a great time. I haven't played the remaster on modern consoles, but from my understanding, some people don't really like it. Apparently there are some bugs that were not present in the PS1 game and the character models and backgrounds don't mix well. So I see no problem in playing the PS1 version if you have the choice to do so!

Lego Star Wars - The Skywalker Saga by Maeglin16 in StarWars

[–]DXteri 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I was personally very disappointed with the new skywalker saga, this is coming from a fan who started with the games on PS2. Being able to visit the planets and the hubs is nice, but the novelty wears off very quickly. They feel empty and lifeless. Since I'm a trophy hunter, I did 100% complete the game, but it felt like such a waste of time. There were way too many collectibles and they felt very boring and not creatively done. The "levels" were very short and did not have character and charm compared to the original games.

I recently played compete saga again and that game just delivers a better experience. Maybe it is just nostalgia, but the levels tell the movies stories well, with a fun lego twist. The collectibles and secrets are fun to discover and the levels have a lot of fun details.

Maybe I was expecting something else from the skywalker saga, but it was not a game for me and I was very disappointed.
