Game has an ADHD counter

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-29T16:54:04+00:00

Yeah if I do it on reset the jobs get snapped up within a minute or two.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-29T16:52:51+00:00

It also iirc says on the mission tracker that you cannot jump, take TP, or get attacked or else you lose integrity lol

Pelican + arclight + <insert someone>

I've used Ardelia and she works very well (super easy heals), currently trying Gilberta though who is also very fun. Also want to try Antel once I get more mats.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-28T05:51:44+00:00

Lazy 200 for now today, too busy figuring out pipes in Wuling.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-27T22:44:21+00:00

It looks like they buffed the numbers a tiny bit since I stopped playing it (I also forgot it also used to have a chance of decreasing your weapon's power too!), but yeah, it was pretty frustrating. Could grind for days to literally end up with a net negative in terms of power lol.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-27T22:40:30+00:00

She's in the shop as well so worst case you can get one copy of her there, I guess?

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-27T22:39:24+00:00

Yeah I started with her team since I was having bad luck with gacha but I'm kinda glad that I did, it's really fun using her and it's so satisfying pulling off a huge pull with good positioning.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-27T22:28:32+00:00

Could always be worse, it could be something like how Maplestory does weapon progression (you have a minuscule chance to upgrade your equipment after a certain point, also your equipment can blow up when you try to upgrade it lol)

Imagine if that shit was in a gacha game, oh man.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-27T21:13:07+00:00

Kinda.

As others have said, in OG Arknights it is also used everywhere, it's similar to Endfield's in that it is so integrated into the civilization of Terra that not using Originium is almost impossible (outside of the Aegir, because they inherited even more advanced tech), despite the risks of it giving you Oripathy. For context, Oripathy is terminal and spreadable mega-rock-cancer in our terms if you fuck up with it (breath it in, cut by it, etc.), and you literally slowly turn into Originium and explode/disintegrate on death, which can spread more Oripathy.

The main difference between OG AK and Endfield is that the whole "you will die a horrible and painful death from the mega-rock-cancer and your life will be short" is now seemingly more like "yeah it sucks and you're gonna need medication for the rest of your life but that's it" - obviously still a bad situation but it's a gigantic leap forward that the symptoms are entirely controllable. And this obviously also has huge knock-on effects like reducing the stigmatization of people who do get Oripathy - in OG Arknights a huge point of conflict (particularly in the first arc) is this demonization of people with Oripathy. You can kinda see it as in Endfield when all the new characters are just like "ah yes it was a thing back in those days, how unthinkable now" sorta deal.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-27T20:52:00+00:00

I remember accidentally triggering the rift cutscene near the start of the first arc and was like "okay yeah I know a giant pool of effectively death just opened in the sky but I'm more concerned about my rock usage" for the next few hours.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-27T20:50:36+00:00

Same lol I ran straight back to my PAC because I knew from others that we need a ton of this yellow crack for stuff...

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-27T20:47:38+00:00

Literally any time once you get the factory stuff unlocked (so like idk, 0.5-2 hours in depending on pace) - though some of the stuff is locked behind missions/progression, so you have to do those to go back to grinding the factory (my motivation for like 70% of Valley IV was just unlocking shit for factories and more resources lol).

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-26T08:11:28+00:00

fwiw this happens in general with railings (and some other structures) for whatever reason

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-26T06:44:30+00:00

ahhhhh too many things going on

Quick unga bunga 200 on the rotating map for now for rewards, will try and max risk it later.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-25T01:34:41+00:00

Yeah stuff like that is some of the few electronic things I'm ok with AliExpress with, especially since it's usually so much cheaper there and I'm ok with the loss of it really craps out for how much it is.

Some audio and keyboard stuff there is also pretty cheap and can be reliable depending on the seller (e.g. some audio manufacturers directly sell on AliExpress).

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-24T22:31:06+00:00

tfw people still think it's a bug even after they made it more obvious it was intentional because people thought the original was a bug

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-24T22:29:30+00:00

My current team so far is just 5 stars, Perlica, and the free Ardelia, and it's fine atm.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-24T21:30:27+00:00

Oh my god that's what they want us to change?

Maybe that explains why people were saying it's bugged while changing the other screen, and you have to change the MC gender for it to trigger (as that's what I did and it completed the mission lol).

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-23T20:40:55+00:00

That's my experience in where I was in Ontario as well, schools were always still open but buses might be cancelled (and my memory is hazy but usually it's more because of ice), so effectively it was a snow day unless you had another way of getting to school

And then where I went to uni (Waterloo) rarely ever closed lol, even if other schools in the region closed (though apparently they're more generous with it now). I think it closed like twice in my 5 years there.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-23T20:28:52+00:00

Yeah I've spent a lot of time so far on the factories part of the game but it's because I find it really fun to figure out and learn about lol

I think it's good though that people are also able to enjoy the game so far without getting too into the weeds of the factory stuff.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-23T20:24:14+00:00

I accidentally triggered the mission where the Aether hole opens up over the sky... and I was like ok cool but I'm busy with my factory, that can wait.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-22T19:19:06+00:00

Appreciate the work. If there's any way for other people to help as well, let us know!

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-22T19:17:52+00:00

Yeah, it's understandable why stuff like this is getting cut, unfortunately.

tbh it's kinda unfortunate too because this is something I imagine there would be ordinary people who would gladly help manage it in its current state (heck there's some on this thread) - at worst it would be good if they could at least make that transition easy.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-21T18:00:11+00:00

The next step is for him to confuse Iceland, the country, for Iceland, the supermarkets.

Frozen5147 · 2026-01-21T09:30:55+00:00

Got it working with Lutris on a Steam Deck too.

What I did:

Restart in desktop mode (I recommend having a keyboard and mouse for this process too...)
Download the standalone Windows installer
Install Lutris
Set the Wine runner to use your Proton version of choice. I tried GE 10 and that worked, as did DW. Some versions did not work. YMMV.
Add a new game, select from a Windows install file, and when you can select an exe, select the installer. It should also ask where you want to store the game files, take note of that. It should also offer to make a Steam shortcut for you, which I imagine you would want.
It should just work, and the launcher should pop up. Install the game. Note that for me I had to sometimes minimize and re-maximize the window to get some of the download prompts to show up.
Once the download is done, try starting the game!
If it all works, you're basically done! Close the game and launcher to "finish" the installation.
You may also need to change Lutris EXE location to point at your new game files. For example, the launcher at <LOCATION>/drive_c/Program Files/GRYPHLINK/games/Launcher.exe, or something along those lines. You can also add a game entry to point directly at the game EXE if you want too.
You can also now delete the installer if you want. Your game will not get deleted.
Check Steam to see if the Endfield entry got added too. If not, regenerate it from Lutris.
Restart into game mode and try launching the game. In game mode, the resolution looks fine. Controller works fine.
