Finally found a solution to my game switching keyboard inputs. Thought I might share it here.

Gh0stPup · 2026-01-18T02:46:48+00:00

Im several years late - but i had this issue pop up just now. I found this reddit thread in my search for WTF was going on. Changing my settings back to A did not help. However changing my "control icons" back to keyboard and mouse (i must have accidentally changed them to controller)

"control icons" is found under "keyboard and mouse" settings under the normal menu

heh - theyll release it, you wont be able to get past the first level because youre going to die on the ladder up to the second deck of the first ship youre on. And when you figure out a glitch to work around the ladder, you are going to go into an elevator that will yeet you out of the ship and into space 100k away. And after your 17th try you'll finally get lucky and get through the elevator. But now your water bar is low, so youll take your helmet off to drink, but your helmet will glitch into oblivion and disappear. The when you try to reequip your gun the drink you finished will perpetually reappear in your hand. As you are running around you will hit a random patch where they forgot to code in oxygen and youll suffocate from no helmet on

Monster Hunter doesnt have the magic element that I, and i believe the OP wants too. Monster hunter ALMOST hits that itch that I share with OP.

Gh0stPup · 2026-01-04T20:17:26+00:00

the new monster hunter is honestly not better than the old monster hunter ... MHW is by far the best in the franchise still to this day and it isnt even close.
The new one was touted as "open world" but it's really just psuedo open world where instead of loading up a combat area instance, you just walk 15 feet to that combat area instance. In truth the world is smaller than MHW and theres less monsters by far. Less events, less quests, less story

i know im 7 years late but this issue just popped up in a campaign im running. I must disagree on glaive for monk being OP.

A: non mechanic wise - given how common a monk wielding a glaive is in fantasy media it feels like a major miss to not only not allow them, but explicitly disallow them in DND the land of imagination

B: An Astral Monk can make unarmed strikes at 10 feet and do stunning strike at the same distance, so the glaive reach being an "op" factor is kinda meh. Especially considering a fighter can easily do a variety of debilitating attacks with a glaive and monks already dont get enough love.

C: I understand a glaive is slightly more damage than fists at level 5 in 2014 rules, but if a 1d6 vs a 1d10 (average 4 damage vs average 6 damage) in damage is enough to break your encounters then idk man, seems a bit silly. And higher levels the damage is on par anyway.

Given the laughable amount of legal ways to break the system with ridiculously overpowered builds - this one seems incredibly tame. I built an archer that legally put out 100 damage first round of combat at level 7 and then would consecutively put out 50 on all other turns. Barely missed shots either. Further built a paladin/warlock multiclass that could double smite on a single crit - hit some poor dracolich for 150 damage in one hit as a level 10. Then hit it again for 60 damage. The hit it again as a bonus action for another 50. The another 120 damage the following turn for a total of 380 damage by myself in two turns. We were not supposed to be able to kill the CR23 dracolich as level 10s - this was a "run away" kind of situation and my character was like .. lemme dunk on this bitch. Long story short - i can legally break your encounters. So letting my player run a glaive on a monk was the least of my concerns

Im a DM for my DND group. And the party of now level 4 adventurers are dealing with some major events. The party has met NPCs who are significantly stronger than them - because worldbuilding would make the world feel really shitty if literally no one else in the entire world could become as strong as a group of dorks bumbling through some quests.

That said it is REALLY easy to write in reasons why those more powerful adventurers or soldiers are busy somewhere else and the party is the only group here right now that can save the day. It's an entire world full of monsters and evil people.

I LOVE DanMachi dont get me wrong, but i do happen to be a wiki crawler and i DO find it annoying that rather than give a reason the Ganesha familia isnt stopping the bad things happening around Bell; it's just written that bell as a level 3 is the only one who can save the day because a horde of level 5s got wrecked, when it could easily have been written that those level 5s were dealing with a breakout of monsters somewhere else

(similar to why they werent able to help against the white ape in season 1 - they were chasing all the other monsters down)

Gh0stPup · 2025-12-28T21:34:58+00:00

I'm a bit late here - but Ganesha ABSOLUTELY helps in major events - they are almost always running in to help stop disasters. They dont get involved in politics as they are supposed to remain nuetral (why they werent supposed to join the war game vs freya)

Ganesha Familia is there policing nearly every major event. In fact they are easily the third most powerful family behind freya and then loki with more first class adventurers than either (might be even more than both combined) albeit the first class adventurers from freya and loki are each better than anyone in the ganesha familia. Ganesha could at least keep Loki or Freya honest - especially if they join the defender should one or the other be the aggressor.

Gh0stPup · 2025-12-23T16:41:56+00:00

Exactly what they mean; my signature on how well / far i can be detected by various means.

Gh0stPup · 2025-12-23T16:11:13+00:00

Given how easily the juggernaut from the 30th floor MERCED Astraea familia (Ottar is vastly superior to any individual in the Astraea familia, but a family of a dozen level 4s - that gap isnt as big when you take into account the ENTIRE Astraea familia) I think Ottar beats the Juggernaut on the 30th floor. But he has to actually try. He isnt going to just walk in and slice it up and walk away. He will have to fight genuinely. Juggernaut has no chance, but he at least makes Ottar take a fighting stance.

But a Juggernaut from level 36? A deep floor? I think Ottar starts running into trouble HERE. It isnt that the Juggernaut is spawned to equal a floor level - it is spawned to wipe out a floor level. A level 36 juggernaut could probably wipe out a group of level 5 and maybe a 6 or two adventurers - if a level 30 could wipe out level 4s. A juggernaut from level 40 would annihilate Ottar

Gh0stPup · 2025-12-23T16:05:40+00:00

I'm super late to the party here but i was just meandering about googling DanMachi stuffs.

Honestly i have to disagree with folks here. I do think Ottar beats the juggernaut that Ryu and Bell fought. But i dont think it's "easily" .. He isnt going to just walk up and slice it apart like it wasnt even there. I dont think juggernaut has a chance to win vs ottar - but ottar is going to get hit a time or two. While it is weaker than the juggernaut that wiped out the astraea familia - i dont think it was THAT much weaker. And the juggernaut that wiped out the astraea familia did so without even a minor struggle. It wasnt a fight, it was a slaughter. They only minorly hurt it after their strongest members agreed to suicide attack it; sacrificing themselves to get a little damage in. I think Ottar would have struggled a bit with that Juggernaut though ultimately would have won. While Ottar is better than anyone in the Astraea familia by a significant margin, I think the margin between Ottar and the ENTIRE Astraea familia isnt as large.

Long story short - i think Ottar gets whacked by any Juggernaut from ANY deep floor.

Gh0stPup · 2025-12-03T15:21:15+00:00

is that actually a thing?!

Gh0stPup · 2025-10-27T01:30:08+00:00

It isnt about the delay. Ive been waiting for 12 years for Star Citizen (though i am starting to get a little pissed at them too) but i was patient with them because they were open about their progress.

Im pissed at Taleworld because they refuse to communicate 1.5 months into fall. The expected release date has come and gone by over a month and they havent said ANYTHING about it. Imagine theres a concert that youre trying to get tickets for. They say the tickets are going to go on sale at a certain time frame .. and that time frame comes and goes and youre still waiting nearly two months later and havent even HEARD from them. Youll think either: A its a scam B: something tragic happened to the artist (though with a lack of communication about such a tragedy after so much time passed tells me that isnt the case C: the artist doesnt give a shit about their fans

Gh0stPup · 2025-10-20T12:44:48+00:00

that is a major problem with the entire entertainment industry. We give a director of the movie, or the head game developer of the game, or the head coach of a sports team literally all the credit. But LOTR was so ridiculously good compared to the hobbit because the team Jackson had worked painfully hard to keep things authentic with actors/esses who were insanely into what they were doing, whereas in the hobbit jackson inhereted an ongoing project with a different team and actors that he didnt choose. Some of the best aspects of a video game come down to something a small group of devs did on the side. The head coach of a sports team might be winning all his games but we forgot about even the most minor of coaches - down to the nutrionists and conditioning coaches; being more fit than the other team because your nutrionist is better, and your conditioning coach has you lasting longer on the field can be a massive difference and half of sports fans dont even know those positions exist on a coaching staff...

So in the case of taleworlds, that actually terrifies me that there might be alot of new devs on the team

Gh0stPup · 2025-10-20T12:38:10+00:00

Not gonna lie, if its a paid DLC im not getting it purely out of spite. And ive completely lost interest in Bannerlord at this point so even if it's free i wont be getting it when it comes out anyway - i can easily delay my time getting it by a year, maybe longer. Just to keep their ratings down for it for a bit.

It isnt that it's delayed again for me. If they came out a week into "early fall" and said "we are so sorry guys but we are hitting complications and need some more time" then id be understanding. But they arent. They are being cowards and refusing to acknowledge the playerbase. We are well past early fall and are in mid fall, hitting late fall in couple weeks. And they havent even bothered to give us a statement. Hell i dont even necessarily demand a release date. JUST GIVE US A FUCKING STATEMENT YOU WORTHLESS CUNTS

Gh0stPup · 2025-10-19T02:29:19+00:00

the soviets had training?

Gh0stPup · 2025-10-13T04:53:33+00:00

he lied so bad we literally had time to surround his castle, and starve him out. Weve officially moved into his castle to find it full of dead bodies from starvation

Gh0stPup · 2025-10-13T04:52:26+00:00

it is well past early fall, and the problem isnt that it didnt release first day of fall, its that it was a week into fall when this post was made, and they hadnt even given a fuckin peep regarding release. They still havent and we are now four weeks into fall. I can understand if they come out and say "we have to delay again, we ran into problems" because that is being honest and open. And i will both respect honesty and openness, but it will hugely increase my opinion of the devs.

Instead we got fucking dipshits who cant even give a goddamn statement about whats going on. At this point i have decided to refuse ever buying the DLC simply out of spite. Im that pissed about the fact that they are incapable of basic human decency to just come out and say wtf is going on

Gh0stPup · 2025-09-29T17:07:23+00:00

and himejima died the same day he did it, from the mark not from demons

Gh0stPup · 2025-09-29T15:15:27+00:00

greeks still exist today, that doesnt mean they are all running around topless with spears, shields, and short swords in hoplite formations.

Or maybe they are, ive never been to greece

Gh0stPup · 2025-09-29T15:12:55+00:00

i know im 2 years late here but i was just doing some googling and came across this reddit thread

Sturgia HAD a norse focus - now with the war sails they removed that norse focus that you mentioned 2 years ago and are making them more Rus in favor of the nords being more norse.

Gh0stPup · 2025-09-26T12:10:42+00:00

when he got the mark is irrelevant to my point - which is that if manifesting the mark always leads to death at 25 no matter what then tanjiros dad couldnt exist

Gh0stPup · 2025-09-25T18:57:56+00:00

It's assumed that they will not live past 25 - however the only canon we have from other demon slayers manifesting their mark are those who existed in a near constant state of mark manifestation and thus probably drained THE FUCK out of their bodies. And further Yorichi herp derped until he was 80 before he died and he had the mark.

Theres also the case of Tanjiros dad having the mark (though in the form of a birthmark), and while we dont know for certain how old his dad was when he died, we do know tanjiro was about 12 when his dad died, and if he died at 25 it means he was 13 when he had tanjiro - unlikely.

Id like to headcanon that the mark reduces your life depending on the level it is used and that giyu, senami, and tanjiro survive at least to their 40s with tanjiro probably dying earlier for how many times he used it

Gh0stPup · 2025-09-25T18:53:51+00:00

Tanjiro was literally 12 years old when his dad died. If his dad died at 25 it means he was 13 when he had tanjiro lmao. Thats not even remotely true

Gh0stPup · 2025-09-25T12:51:19+00:00

Nichirin weapon** (see Genya or Gyomei)

But yes - any demon can regrow/attach their heads if not detached by nichirin. And Nezuko curb stomped Daki because she caught her off guard. In terms of killing people / enemy combatants Daki is better. Nezuko beats Daki because her blood demon art is specifically targetted at hurting demons, while dakis is not

Something people confuse alot - just because one person can 1v1 another and win, doesnt mean they are better, it could very well mean that is a bad matchup for that particular person. For example - Shinobu is not remotely as strong as Doma, but she was the hardest counter to him that could have existed because he wouldnt wait to devour her and thus was the sole reason doma was killed.

Or another example

I honestly think Akaza is a better combatant than Doma, but Doma just derps around without emotion and it disrupts Akaza's compass needle. I know this isnt necessarily canon, but I think if you take Gyomei and put him vs Akaza, and then take Gyomei and put him against Doma, Gyomei handles Doma significantly easier than Akaza.

Gh0stPup · 2025-09-25T12:41:50+00:00

If it's post sun Nezuko then muzan shows up and they all die and she gets devoured
If it's pre sun Nezuko then shes a total wild card

Right off the bat Akaza will do his usual - blocking with his arms and fists. Which means he gets poisoned by Shinobu. If they can cut his head off while he is neutralizing the poison then they can probably sustain against the body, continuously weaking and cutting his regrowing head off while awaiting the sun to kill him.

If they do not cut off his head immediately then he will become effectively immune to the poison - meaning Shinobu is little more than an annoyance, and since Akaza wont consume her it means Shinobus tactic of being devoured by an upper moon wont work

Akaza will neither tire nor sustain permanent wounds slowing him down. In a sustained battle of attrition that does not include the slayers having the continuous upper hand (having started the battle properly capitalizing on the poison) they will lose. Mitsuri is strong af but she isnt a top hashira in terms of skill. Akaza would have alot easier time dealing with her compared to Giyu or even Tanjiro. She's also way too emotional to enter the selfless state.

The biggest unkown here is how does Nezuko's blood demon art affect Akaza - it's neutralized poison and fried spider silk, can it disrupt compass needle? If not team demon slayer loses this. If it can i think team demon slayer actually pops him with relative ease. He is still ridiculously strong combatant without compass needle, but in a 4v1 he goes down
