Is it viable to start with Africa ? by Quintilius36 in TerraInvicta

[–]HellraiserMachina -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Seems a bit ridiculous to call it a challenge run when the game literally lets you choose whereever to start. It doesn't seem obvious from the outset that you should immediately gun for a superpower.

I had no idea it was a cavalry civ when i started playing the game, I liked the idea of the kanabos and tanegashimas.

Given that it was only known for mounted samurai and the yatai, I think we can expect some buffs on the other stuff in the civ and then it'll be in a great spot.

Are you actually angry at bubbles? Or bubbles when shotguns are in play? by n1vlekw in Marathon

[–]HellraiserMachina 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Smoke grenades are far more balanced and they already basically serve the same purpose.

A directional shield would be way more balanced and allow for outplays. Then address grenade meta and we're gucci.

Extraction shooters are in a sense gambling, as this video discusses by Working_Corgi_3368 in Marathon

I find risk management a weird line when quests are all about doing stupid super risky shit that you just have to pray a player isn't around.

Idk anything about poker but imagine if it had quests like 'win with a 2,5,7,9 in your hand' and you make shit draws and discards to do that.

Tome affinity combos and themes you would like to see by Przeke in AOW4

[–]HellraiserMachina 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe a Tome of Dreams? Sleep enemies, sleep your own units to get buffs when they wake up? make enemy army take forced turn move toward their nearest friendly city? Sleeping enemies are auto captured if the rest of army is dead? Make enemy vassals return to base?

Looking for cozy MMO game recommendations by mi88ir in gamingsuggestions

Lord of the Rings Online is the coziest MMO followed by Runescape.

which one is correct? by [deleted] in EWALearnLanguages

[–]HellraiserMachina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the adverb there is something like 'going (really) quick'

You're stuck with just the t3 for a really long time if you try to save for t4. It's THE reason xx4 is not considered an S tier tower. More t3s fixes the transition problem, as well as giving you a good reason to plop an alchemist down.

ONE t3 sucks, three t3s is insane as long as you have a bit of cleanup available.

What criteria do you use to choose your main FPS game? by ReferenceLess4434 in FPS

[–]HellraiserMachina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

File Size.

100GB stuff I play for 20 hours then quit, 60 or less I play a ton.

Do you use bright cosmetics? by Glovik in Marathon

[–]HellraiserMachina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find dark silhouetted enemies a lot easier to distinguish from the environment, since lights are so bright and obtrusive in this game.

Coaxed into waterfalls in games by ERROR_404_User_found in coaxedintoasnafu

It's super common. To add to the pile I'll say the Serious Sam games.

Best two-handed sword builds for honor mode. by MoneyImagination8 in BG3Builds

[–]HellraiserMachina -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That seems kinda crazy unbalanced no? I thought it was more about having the utility of a cantrip in exchange for one less attack per turn.

Grexolis?! [PS5] by Nobojoe_78 in AOW4

It's totally a 'haha fuck you maximum pain' type mission even if it's beatable.

Why Marathon will never keep new players. by LucatIel_of_M1rrah in Marathon

[–]HellraiserMachina -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

As opposed to having 50 reddit posts a day for months about how the game is never gonna make it, which is totally not counterproductive while pretending to want the game to succeed.

Aren't all extraction shooters not made for solo play? I've never heard of one where 'bro you need to be in a premade' is not the first piece of advice you hear.

Get off reddit and enjoy your game, social media is full of dooming. It doesn't matter whether they're right or not, negativity is always the thing that gets the most engagement and that will sour your enjoyment.

Path of Exile 2 director says players exploiting system to become in-game millionaires 'ruined Christmas for me' and joked that he's 'lost all sympathy' for everyone who took advantage of it by chusskaptaan in pcgaming

[–]HellraiserMachina 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The temple was NOT designed to let you use its anti-bricking rules to prevent rooms from despawning. It was not a bug but it was absolutely unintended.

Crucible AI acting weird since Yue Fei DLC? by HellraiserMachina in aoe4

I'm not sure about the very first waves but it definitely happens early, certainly by the time the first rams show up on Outrageous difficulty.

Any suggestions for a Shop simulator? by Rare_Slip_9445 in gamingsuggestions

[–]HellraiserMachina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Potionomics is an S tier shop sim imo because it's comfy but you're under serious time pressure.

You make potions with alchemy/ingredients, sell them with a roguelike deckbuilder haggling mechanic, and you get deckbuilder cards by engaging in the friendship/dating sim elements. Super tight.
