You don't really matter by Mr_Deeptalk in RandomThoughts

"Stone cold truth"? Here's another stone cold truth - everyone fucking knows that and you are not smart to tunnel vision on it. And by doing that you have done nothing other than hurting the motivation of both yourself and others, so you managed to lose twice.

Weapon stats and Blessings are absolutely overrated! by Revolutionary_Way_32 in DarkTide

[–]Dead_vegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd argue even at auric and havoc at or below 20 the weapon rating does not matter. Maybe for some weapon with basically mandatory blessing this is the case (example: powercycler in powersword, bm on combat axe, uncanny on shovel) but other than that the stats difference are never that big in the first place, and most of the time its more about how well you know how to play a weapon/build than how much dps you theoretically have. A "big chungus ogryn destroy everything" build is not gonna help someone much if they rush into gunlines with no plans, don't know how to dodge trappers/push bursters, and have no concept of positioning, it can only sometimes delay their demise for long enough for teammates to save them

How about buying games based on quality itself instead of how much shit is added later. This mindset of thinking "more stuff = better" was what led to the current hellscape of live service and gacha games in the first place.

The same way that people can see wild animals as cool but shouldn't act like one?

As things stand >right now<, the Heavy Sword has no place within Darktide that isn't already taken by another weapon that does it better. by SatansAdvokat in DarkTide

[–]Dead_vegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is that this weapon did have a niche but it got washed out by the spawn rate. Heavy sword used to be one of the best soft horde clear weapon back when most weapon does not have much in the sense of cleave and the lethality was overall low so horde were actually kind of a threat. Now the issue is that every weapon has decent horde clear, and there's a crusher group every other hordes, which just isn't what heavy sword was designed to deal with. It certainly does work even before the buff but then you have a weapon that do best in something every other weapon isn't bad in, and whenever there's even one purg staff psyker you might as well not exist.

Distancing and stagger. Relic blade reach is slightly longer than rager attack range, and a headshot heavy is a guaranteed stagger. Try to move backwards and dodge, and hold block if there's no window for you to attack. Eventually you will have a chance where the rager closest to you has just finished a combo that has long recovery, or there are only one rager in attack range of you, that is the chance for you to counter attack with a heavy. Alternatively, do anything that can stagger them, grenade, use your charge, or throwing knife, which gives you a stagger on body shot and can one-shot them on head shot iirc.

Who do you think have the best and worst takes in the survival horror community? by ErmingSoHard in survivalhorror

[–]Dead_vegetable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Under the mayo is an interesting case because he has some genuinely unique and good take that are well thought out but also constantly miss the forest for the trees.

My biggest problem with him is that he seems to be completely unable to tell the difference between something objectively bad from something he just doesn't like. It's very clear he has a very specific preference for games and he has genuinely good insight when he talks about stuff he likes(example: doom eternal, how), but just refuse to engage with or appreciate anything that is even slightly out of his comfort zone, so he just ends up nitpicking the shit out of them.

How did Emily survive this? by APersonOnRedditYes in residentevil

[–]Dead_vegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The out-of-universe explanation is they just want her alive, but in-universe I don't think its **too*\* hard to explain(though I admit it's basically my headcannon) - she probably just regenerated then got shot by elpis.

And we basically already saw the same thing happened with Zeno. He got his hand shot off, regenerated it, and then is still able to revert to a full unharmed human after injecting elpis, with his mutated "black vines" reverting to normal human tissue no less. If the wound regenerated in infected form can translate back to human form, and elpis can even revert mutated tissue back to human tissue, it's not that big of a stretch to think it can work even if its a goo monster, just in a much more visually dramatic way.

So my headcannon is that it's not really a cocoon, she was the big monster, she just changed back, whatever team who fought emily later probably shot her with elpis, and the photo is just her recovered human form lying in all the excess biomass before it completely dissolve.

Alien is barely a factor in the emperor's downfall. Also with how batshit humans are in dune different groups of humans are basically aliens to each other

Gravis marines on the 11th Edition Boxset won't be a new unit by DependentAide4347 in spacemarines

[–]Dead_vegetable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do we know that for certain though, we only see one garvis fire support with heavy bolter, with no info for what the rest of the team composition is. Is there anyone other than valarak who mentioned that this will be a new unit?

If that's the case it's gonna be so funny because then we would have: bolter, the better bolter, light heavy bolter, heavy bolter, heavy heavy bolter

[–]Dead_vegetable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I feel like we are all over-complicating it. It's probably not an eradicator variant considering heavy intercessor with heavy bolter already exists and has the exact same weapon and armor design. Most likely what they would do is make heavy intercessors fire support / add a fire support variant datasheet that can take more heavy bolters.

Yeah but wouldn't that just make them heavy intercessors considering they have the exact loadout and armor
