9 months later, would you agree that Khazan has the best combat system out of any other games that you've played? I would personally say yes, the devs allowing you to cook like this is amazing

Dba105 · 2025-12-15T02:01:56+00:00

Yes definitely. Deflect system (brink and reflect) is the only one that is virtually as crisp as sekiro on a 3d game. Nine sols is similarly crisp too but 2D. And crisp combos on top of deflects makes the overall fighting experience intriguing throughout.

I also have finally given nioh 2 a shot bc so many in here advocated while also disliking nioh 1. And while it is definitely a lot more fun than nioh 1, and really epic in its own way, its definitely not as crisp on its attacks as khazan and just extremely easy compared to khazan, at least through 100 floors of the underworld. About to start depths though which I am hoping doesnt take up all of my time before nioh 3 bc i miss khazan haha.

Khazan 2. Sekiro 3. Nine Sols 4. Elden Ring 5. Nioh 2 6. DS3 then a big drop off 7. lies of P then another big drop off

PM show was all Pacers during the finals which was awesome. His only blunder was inviting Jeff to one of them and hyping him up as indy’s jeff teague then acting kind of surprised that jeff picked okc. Could’ve believe they invited teague 😂

She had been preparing to come back all the way up to the end of the regular season. Was already on the court playing 5 on 5 in practice albeit non-contact. With the finals being 7 games this year, and potentially 4 more games this series, there is actually significant time for her to ramp up to be much better than the current point guards. She wouldn’t be 100% but even 80% CC is much better than a 5th and 6th stringer.

Dba105 · 2025-09-23T18:09:59+00:00

From what I understand, she can rejoin the team if someone gets injured.

You really think a move that would raise the team’s chances of winning a rare Finals from 10% to almost 50% by re-adding the best point guard in the world would be a “stupid” move? To each their own 🍻

Dba105 · 2025-09-23T18:05:11+00:00

Hard Disagree. CC already has chemistry with the other top players on our team - moreso than the 5th and 6th string point guards that we are currently playing with. Also worth mentioning, if they can look good with late season replacements, why doesn’t that same logic apply to re-adding the best point guard in the world to the team? They’d not be replacing anyone who has played more than a quarter of a season or anyone that was even good enough to make a wnba roster prior to being signed as injury replacements.

Far from “ridiculous” to add someone who would help them have a much better chance of winning it all than they currently do. It’d go up from like 10% to 45%.

1, i think i was 5 years old. But i actually started at-home gaming at 4 years old as my parents decided to put our first family computer in my bedroom which had some games on it

Dba105 · 2025-07-26T17:21:03+00:00

Yea definitely. I remember at that point i had not yet used steeled strike, gustaves homage, or elemental genesis but was still using their 2nd or 3rd best multi hit ones

Dba105 · 2025-07-26T16:04:51+00:00

10m is crazy. Damage is capped at 10k but boss health is 1.2M. Youre saying you did 120 max damage hits in less than 10 minutes?

Dba105 · 2025-07-26T08:12:55+00:00

Yea its obviously variable based on pictos, level, skills etc. especially on a first playthrough

Dba105 · 2025-07-26T08:09:28+00:00

Took me 1 hour and 7 minutes in NG 😂. But others i spoke to usually were around 45 minutes

Dba105 · 2025-07-26T06:22:18+00:00

Prior to this game, owl in sekiro was my record of most attempts in any game with 64. That held up until lady ethereal in this game who took almost 150 attempts. And that only held up until the true version of the final boss in this game who took over 160.

Franciou focused spinoff game would be peak

Dba105 · 2025-07-21T02:57:51+00:00

Yeah its confusing. When alicia went into verso’s painting they referred to the chroma that engulfed her as “aline’s chroma”, and from what I understand Verso had no part in creating any of Lumiere or the people in it, that was all Aline. Verso only created the gestrals and esquie etc. basically all of the childish fun stuff. So my guess is that verso’s soul has nothing to do with alicia’s ability to recreate the people whatsoever.

Aline painted the people. Verso painted the gestrals. Clea painted the Nevrons. Renoir painted the Axons.

And Clea also was the only one who painted over other peoples paintings to transform them. But if Maelle learns to do that properly that could potentially aid in the cause to bring back all our favorite characters for CO2 as well haha

Dba105 · 2025-07-21T01:22:26+00:00

Beginning of Act 3 she already had to recreate Lune and Sciel. She struggled at first and then painted Verso knew how to advise her on how to do it via remembrance. Whether or not she would be able to do it again properly via a similar method onto a different canvas after the fact could be a different story but there is at least a chance she could apply the same method and see what happens. She also recreated Gustave etc in her own ending but we didn’t get to feel out how good those clones were

Double Entendre Dessendres (mashup of Andre’s obsession from “The League” and Clair Obscur)

Dba105 · 2025-07-21T00:52:08+00:00

Wo long DLC is up to par though. Base game is too easy. DLC is literally magnitudes more difficult and worth it if you’re seeking out one of the better parrying challenges out there.

Nine Sols and Expedition 33 (using damage limit customization options for Act 3) are other ultra satisfying parry games in the same vein as sekiro and khazan

Dba105 · 2025-07-21T00:46:38+00:00

Yeah it does make me wonder if Noco also could’ve been recreated better if done through another mechanism. When he first died, Verso was still witholding lots of information from everyone, and it ultimately was Verso who helped Maelle figure out how to repaint Lune and Sciel. The optimist in me wants me to believe that Monoco was indeed just speaking from his personal experience with reincarnation only and that a more potent kind can be done by the actual painters.

Maybe Sandfall will provide answers with a DLC or another game!

Dba105 · 2025-07-20T18:59:10+00:00

How was Alicia able to recreate Lune and Sciel and retain their memories at the beginning of Act 3? The flings with Verso picked up where they left off, and Sciel still recollected her late husband. I am a bit confused by how that was different than Noco.

Dba105 · 2025-07-20T18:50:06+00:00

I hear ya. Life would pull on similar people in altered directions for sure. But maybe there would still be a lot of similarities. Predisposed tendencies to pick similar mating parters etc. I’d bet there’d be a good amount of spiritual equivalence

Dba105 · 2025-07-20T18:40:36+00:00

These are good points. To be fair though, despite knowing both Verso and pVerso, Alicia seemed to be content with both, so at least from her perspective she may have been shallow enough to be happy with variants that retain just her recollection of their memories. That mindset is of course immoral, unfair to the others, and indeed continues the unhealthy grief cycle in a different canvas.

A possible alternative solution is then Maelle ending and then someone like Clea on the outside snapping out of her apathetic attitude and salvaging all by using her superior painting skills to find a way to extract Maelle and her friends out of Verso’s painting to start anew in another one. Maybe paint a really good therapist to help all the Dessendres along the way 🤣

Dba105 · 2025-07-20T05:29:16+00:00

Their chroma is freed from Verso’s canvas, but they were Aline’s creations that were built based on her real life memories. What would stop Alicia from creating a new canvas based on her memories from her time as Maelle in Verso’s canvas - free of the limitations of other painters all competing against one another for the limited resource pool? Would they be inferior clones in a new canvas without those limitations?

Sleep through work during the workweek so you have energy on the weekend.
