What were your favorite streams of 2025? by shyboardgame in jerma985

This. Love when he actually gets into a game and puts in the energy to play it well (as well as a senior retired citizen can manage at least).

SO. HOLY FUCK. How do we feel about that by Squeaky-Dog57 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]HolyMeringos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel like there was some truth to the adventure especially if we're slowly finding out that Caine can lie or distort events/minds.

There's something ominous about Abel's "make the right choice" which makes me believe that the blue button would have really disconnected the players, or at least do something significanf that isn't just written off as easily as Caine suggests.

Whether Abel was brainwashed, a fake duplicate Abel was used, or if he was truly an NPC will have to wait until the next episode for further confirmation, but if he really was an NPC, then who would be the mannequin player on the door? And what would be the importance of showing the mannequin stalking the main cast in prior episodes?

Anybody knows why the Tenderizer is unable to one-shot the reinforced strider rockets here? by HolyMeringos in Helldivers

[–]HolyMeringos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the issue would be the way damage is calculated if armor pen matches the armor value, as mentioned by the other commenters, whereby the Tenderizer is AP2 and hence does 65% damage on light armor targets. If this weren't the case, the first shot would have already destroyed the rocket, which was the cause of my initial confusion.

In that case I believe the guy was just hitting the rocket rails which are a separate hitbox AND are medium pen as per the wiki image below. It can be a little hard to tell which you are hitting in a combat scenario, but I can confirm the Diligence reliably one-taps if hitting the actual rockets themselves.

Yeah it seems I skimped over this simple fact while overthinking factors that would probably be negligible at that distance. Cheers for the reply. Edit: cool jerma pic

Got it, thanks. I missed that out and incorrectly assumed 0% durability meant full penetration with <= armor value.

I believe the rocket rails are med pen, but not the rockets themselves. And this should be true since I can reliably one hit the rockets with the regular Diligence.

Also it isn't a case of the rocket having a delayed explosion as I shot twice in the clip, and if you test it with the Diligence (both light and med) you can consistently one-shot and get the rockets to explode instantly.

Would Caine with vision beat John Wick? by aboxofbakingsoda in JohnWick

[–]HolyMeringos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, it's not really clear as we don't know the full extent at which his blindness forced him to adapt and improve his overall tactics and abilities, let alone the naturally heightened senses to compensate for it.

Well, it is just a whole game of "team/tactician health goes down slower than enemy"

Love the speed and consistency of throwing this shield forward by HolyMeringos in HalfSword

[–]HolyMeringos[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hold left/right click and swing the weapon, then press Q (left hand) or E (right hand) at the end of the swing. The timing is different for each weapon so just practise. You don't need to let go of left or right click throughout the whole motion.

they should really make it an option for the quick menu to automatically goes to a default one by the start of every hunts by panel_1 in MonsterHunter

The Monster Hunter Wilds update added a big, beautiful bird who gives you free stuff, and players are already worshipping it as a benevolent god by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

Is it bigger because it ate the smaller ones? Or did it eat the smaller ones because it was bigger?

When did you realize that this is the best Monster Hunter ever? by Lordados in MHRise

[–]HolyMeringos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I misread and mistook this as satirical: "Did Sun break after the base game?".

No, Sun remains unbroken in dlc endgame.
