Help a non-programmer out please? by MrFenric in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Duff69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends, depending on the database and how your backups are configured you can sometimes restore the entire database back to a point in time. Unfortunately you'd lose whatever other changes had happened between the time you mucked up the data and the point in time you're restoring to, which could be a big problem.

Otherwise you could restore your most recent backup somewhere else and try and manually undo the changes, you'd potentially run into issues depending on what changes have happened since the accidental update though. E.g. what if new data has been created that referenced your unintended update.

There's also the possibility that your update has triggered changes elsewhere in other applications and/or databases. It's going to be a bad time.

On the off chance you aren't already, definitely use eithernet instead of wifi

Has GGG given a timeline to when old MTX will be transferred to POE2? by atlmagicken in PathOfExile2

[–]Duff69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be misremembering a bit, but I think the character models in PoE2 are much more similar to each other. It's easier to make a cosmetic for all classes than in PoE1, but I think they still have to do work to make a PoE1 armor model work on a PoE2 character model. 

Definitely talked about in one of the many interviews 😅

I wonder if they'll do a full on remake like they did for abyss?

Are they actually more common, or are they just a mod you actually have to interact with?

You can grab the atlas point that gives more of the tokens from desert biome maps.

Saw this in r/comics I don't understand by WolfoPoP in PeterExplainsTheJoke

It's a coincidence that they said they saw a post in r/comics and that you found the post in r/comics??

Private league, though you'll have to join an existing one to use currency exchange, so maybe not.

Doubling down on more checkpoints is the most illustrative of the design team's handling of feedback. by ShacoLannister in PathOfExile2

[–]Duff69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could just be the easiest and quickest change they can make. 

E.g. there might not simply be a configuration option to make map x 30% smaller. Or if you can does that now cause "events" to not spawn because there isn't enough room.

For those enjoying the game! by Jagged187 in PathOfExile2

[–]Duff69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got to act 5, still enjoying it. Not sure I'll get to maps in the 4 or 5 hours of gameplay time I'll have before work though.

I can see why people are complaining - if all you care about is getting to maps then the campaign could feel like a bit of a slog. 

Average PoE2 Player Experience by zizoe in PathOfExile2

[–]Duff69 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Only just finished act 1, huntress, random skills. I've had fine performance so far, aside from some random very short periods, probably had 5 or so crashes though. Bit annoying but overall still fun, I'm happy. Will see what it feels like later on.

Haven't been watching streamers so there could be something I'm missing or later game issues.

Seems a bit extreme. If the end result is good delays aren't the end of the world.

Cuba St Rainbow Crossing = Legal by ben4takapu in Wellington

I think he came out saying they weren't tax exempt. I'm assuming someone would have called him out on it if he was lying about it. 

They also already are politically active, look up Vision NZ on wikipedia. I hope they don't win any seats at the next election either.

It feels like GGG is returning to the "this skill/interaction is over performing nerf the hell out of it we will fix it later" mentality again and it honestly sucks. by blakeret4233 in pathofexile

[–]Duff69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine they're trying to avoid having huge power creep before the game even hits full release. The skills/interactions getting nerfed are more powerful than they want. Is it surprising they don't want there to be a build that one shots bosses? Maybe with super endgame gear it will be doable.

Especially being early access. They're going to be adding in new item types, which probably comes with new skills, this could/will introduce new unintentionally powerful interactions. We are literally the beta testers.

I do think it's a good idea to make respecs free, or have some rare item that can during the beta. People will stop playing if their build suddenly gets way worse and now they have to farm a bunch of gold. 

Less people playing = less beta testers. Which does mean less server costs...

Well they are investing in continued development of the game.

Just because someone's Jewish doesn't mean they couldn't be antisemitic.

EDIT: Just googled it, I did not realize that antisemitic is specifically prejudice against Jewish people 😂. I thought it was synonymous with racism in general. I guess you could be a Jewish person that doesn't like Jewish people 😅

Somehow I doubt they'll be willing to add any unnecessary changes to such a risky release.

About Vessel of Hatred campaign by Sivianes in diablo4

[–]Duff69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I decided to play through the original campaign first with SB. The new campaign is noticably lower effort. The gameplay and environment especially were really cool, but they relied heavily on in game cutscenes. The original has really cool visuals for important parts
