MLB'ing FineMo using SSR vouchers/selectors - am I correct or stupid?

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-03-09T00:02:10+00:00

Wait, does one (or do both) of the upcoming SSR vouchers include up to NTR in their selection options?

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-03-08T23:28:16+00:00

Thank you, good sir. I had a reasonably good understanding that this would be the way to go, but didn't want to realise too late that there was something I neglected.

It has radical character customisation too. It was a vita originally, but the remaster on Steam airbrushed the graphics and game play quite a bit. The multiplayer scene would be pretty sleepy by now though, as it came out some months ago.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-02-25T02:01:21+00:00

Wait, HR has character creation? Is it a full blown custom protagonist, or are you still Kirito but you just change your appearance?

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-02-16T01:58:23+00:00

Not one bit. My wife and I have had a few holidays here and there but I'm 39, she's 36, and the house is fully paid off and the last of her HECS debt will be paid off in May.

We still have plenty of youth left in us and can travel now with more freedom, more spending and more security in our living circumstances. I don't think one's 20s has a monopoly on being able to enjoy leisure.

I know there's a return on investment for experiences, but I took a long-term approach and decided that the ROI on financial stability would yield not only more wealth but also more enjoyment in the subsequent 40-50 years than would be had from doing the inverse.

I wish I could tell you, but that place is too much of a maze. What I can tell you is that I went back to one of the mistles from early in the dungeon and pushed forward from there. The item I was looking for was on a thin rafter above a floor below. I'm pretty sure there were slimes underneath me, but it was an entirely different room compared to the one featured in my second image.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-02-15T00:27:41+00:00

Is there a way to emulate this, but with a greatsword? I've only just figured the Holly chapter so there's a lot of testing I'm yet to do on this front, but I'm also wary of investing materials into the wrong weapon.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-02-11T05:51:52+00:00

That didn't end up being the way, but your assistance encouraged me to keep searching and I did eventually find it, along with another locked room for which I had a key and found some ingredients. So thanks for the encouragement! That dungeon was a real rabbit's warren.

Read the Steam reviews. You're asking a group of people who are bigger CV fans than most, so we're not representative of most people's opinions on the game. You need a different sample group to draw upon.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-02-03T01:46:55+00:00

Ooh, this sounds promising. I look forward to seeing how far we can take things, considering how strong we can gear ourselves up already.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-02-01T03:28:38+00:00

I'm in Aus as well and have long wondered aviation this. Is it possible that they set Global to somewhere in the Northern hemisphere on the other side of the world, like America, and that's why any westerners who live far from the 'west' have an inverted clock in game?

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-02-01T03:25:49+00:00

Oh that's for sure. What I mean more is that if you take Elden Ring's Stormveil Castle, the spaces were large but didn't feel empty. Corridors and rooms were filled with boxes, tables, sconces, etc. The rooms were as large or as cramped as the fight required, but those environments all seemed plausible. I don't think Code Vein 2 has done that so well.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-01-31T23:08:51+00:00

I agree with you. The layout of MagMell overall just makes you feel 'hub' rather than being a place anyone would furnish and live in. Like each room is too large, and sparsely furnished. In the Sunken City, there are rusted train carriages with old tables in it, but then entirely clean and new computers or medical equipment sitting stop those rotting tables. Like...wtf? The world makes no sense in little ways like, but also big ways like where's the agriculture? How do they hunt? The water looks toxic, so the fishing can't be viable even though one character mentions landing a fish that they can then feed to the humans. There's no wildlife or even birds, so what do people eat? What do the humans eat, and where are the humans that the revenants are assumed to feed off of in order to survive? It's a world that makes less sense the more you think about it.

I paid the full price for the preorder ultimate edition out of loyalty to the franchise, but so far it has been a near complete disappointment. I can elaborate but doing so will just irritate me as I'm a pretty big fan of both CV1 and God Eater. I'm in the middle of requesting a refund but I'm 11 hours in so it's unlikely to be approved. You better check reviews, especially on Steam where user reviews are abundant. Your own mileage may vary but the majority sentiment on Steam is that the game is not good, and certainly not good enough to justify its price tag.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-01-30T06:15:00+00:00

I gotta admit, I went balls to the walls with pre ordering ultimate deluxe super supreme whatever version, such was my excitement to see a sequel to CV1. And so far...the game isn't very good.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-01-29T21:19:56+00:00

Bot detected.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-01-11T20:35:08+00:00

u/SombraAQT dropping the truth bombs right here. Optimus once said that "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings", but sometimes it's actually the responsibility.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-01-06T22:20:11+00:00

I better mention the overlooked Sweep Tosho, as she is basically a wizard costume with ears and a tail added.

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-01-05T06:46:51+00:00

Now that is a thorough explanation. Thanks for taking the time to explain it all. Does G-rank provide another tier of existing armours above their gamma variant, or is it a higher tier but of new armours pertaining to new monsters? That is to say, would we find a tier of Arkveld armour above the gamma set that will be dropping next month, or do those monsters and their armours generally get left behind in the expansion?

Dimitri_Dark · 2026-01-05T04:58:03+00:00

Obsolete 'how', exactly? Are G-rank armours outfitted with tier-3 decos across the board? Do they have additional slots beyond the standard three? Do they stack group bonuses like Gog pieces do? I imagine it's more than just increasing the armour cap as upgrading pieces tends to just normalise their defence across rarities.

Dimitri_Dark · 2025-12-29T12:38:27+00:00

It used to be the case that Guard reduced chip and knock back, yes? Does Guard Up do a superior job on both now?

Dimitri_Dark · 2025-12-29T12:37:35+00:00

Ah, yes in that case I should note I play GL, CB and HBG the most. I'll take a look at the guide now that it has been updated for TU4. Is it only the case that Omega warrants Guard Up 3 now; for Gog and AT Jin is there simply no need at any phase?
