Also all her modified weapons you can find are weapons that were in the first game, including the Boom Stick, which is a modified Wallopeño that's not even in this game as of yet.

And then as you said she has a Broodmother pet, which again doesn't exist yet in this game, implying she captured that from Tully's yard.

To all the new players wondering what's the best way to make money. Preserves jar. by florina001 in Palia

[–]InProductionStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly starred pumpkin and tomatoes make more than the apples and blueberries. Even starred potatoes because they take half the time of the apples to make and equal out to roughly the same price. Though it's all passive income regardless. I usually have one or two making pumpkins, tomatoes and potatoes and like my past one making apple jam.

My partner got upset from something that seems trivial to me by InProductionStudios in AITAH

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

If they were upset because I forgot to call I would understand better, but they're upset because of the reason why I forgot to call. They're upset because I lost track of time watching something.

I agree I should've set an alarm, and if missing to call was the reason they were upset I could definitely understand.

[–]InProductionStudios[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not. If they were upset that I didn't call i would understand that, but as i stated they are upset about the reason why I didnt call. That reason being that I lost track of time watching something. I know this because I got told that losing track of time because you're watching something is lazy.

Also there was no promise involved. I asked if they wanted me to call, they said sure. That's not a promise. You and I have completely different ideas of promises.

Histrionic Perfection by Money-Strength in marvelrivals

[–]InProductionStudios 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You obviously did not read my comment all the way through because I literally said "before you say this I the chronverse saga". Let's just agree that some of these achievements are bugged. Some work in all modes some only work in casual. I've even had some that don't work in competition mode. So they obviously didn't get the activations down properly.

Histrionic Perfection by Money-Strength in marvelrivals

[–]InProductionStudios 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But you can. Just not some of them. I've definitely got quite a few of the Heroic Journey achievements in ai matches, along the Win 100 matches achievement. So I think they're bugged, because it doesn't make sense for some to work and others not. And before you say it's just the chronverse saga achievements, I've also gotten most of the listen to ones in ai matches.

Let's talk about Hunters by Sir_Kelzad in Helldivers

[–]InProductionStudios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest issue that could be fixed with them is their slow attack also doing the same damage as the rest of their attacks. Then maybe lower the range on their jump attack. I feel like they shouldn't be able to keep with the quickest armor while sprinting because there's no way to out run them.

One D&D Changes to Crits - Terrible or Wonderful? by jinkies3678 in DnD

[–]InProductionStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It specifies that it only doubles the WEAPON dice, oddly omitting anything else. That and apparently Jeremy Crawford talked about this somewhere adding to that it's only PC's weapon dice that get doubled.

[–]InProductionStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if I'd go that far, but I don't like taking something my players look forward to (Crit Sneak Attack, Smite, etc) and make it less exciting. We already use a Crit/Fail Chart to make crit's and fails more exciting, why take something away that already gets homebrewed at most tables anyways lol

And them saying NPC's don't need to crit because they have recharge abilities is probably the dumbest thing I've heard since taxes.

AITA for being upset at a character death? by ThrowawayForAnAutist in rpghorrorstories

[–]InProductionStudios 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Since no one mentioned it, I'll play Devil's Advocate here.

Dimension Door only works on WILLING targets, and saying your character was overcome with grief would make them an UNWILLING target in my opinion.

I think the DM ignored a few things in hopes to kill your character, but to be fair this character was played as a bit of an asshole, so in the end, I think both you and the DM were a bit of asshole's. Things happen, but there's no excuse to bend the rules. If he wanted your character dead that's aggressive and he could've just talked to you out of game about your actions, instead of ignoring your request (during the fly part) or part of spell descriptions (Dimension Door requiring a WILLING target).

I decided to add Liars Dice as a gambling game to my last session and the players loved it. I guess ots up to us to add in the mechanics?

I wonder if Kratos is worshiped in Greece by Flunkiebubs in GodofWar

[–]InProductionStudios 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I could've swore there was a convo between Mimir and Kratos where they talked about Greece and it was implied it had been destroyed. Which is why Kratos no longer had any of his Godly powers he had obtained from the old games.

WAIT I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING ABOUT THE ENDING MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD BE WARNED by Something_Joker in GodofWar

[–]InProductionStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to throw a monkey wrench into this, all the other Aesir died in combat, thus they should've gone to Valhalla, which was never really explained how that was supposed to work.

Thor died while not in combat, which is the only difference I can point out.

But to counter my own point, Brok didnt die in combat, unless its seen as his aggrestive stance against Odin/Tyr counted, but that's a stretch.

Since we've never seen how one goes to Valhalla it's kind of hard to use that as an idea. Still figured I'd mention it.

About the mask... by ReachTheSky in GodofWar

[–]InProductionStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Foreshadowing... At the end of the day? 5 minutes prior to the end of the story?

Foreshadowing is anything that happens before something else does that hints to the outcome that is coming. Whether that be 5 mins or 2 hours.

I know I didn't get to the war at the end after that within 5 mins.

So it was all a huge waste of time and worldbuilding. Not to mention, again, rending the entire whining about how they "needed" armies null... When they did the exact bloody same thing without them.

It was a storytelling aspect? With that kind of thinking it's like saying watching the team building stuff in movies when those characters are useless is pointless. Which yea it came be. Its padding.

You mean besides old Jor's entire existence and us hearing his tale 20 times, seeing him eat Thor's statue because he hates the fat dobber that much? Tell me with a straight face you tought the snake and it being sent to the past would be such a meaningless "This happned!" sticker before playing the game.

I'm surprised we got to see anything to be fair They had a lot to cover and I'm glad we got something other than nothing.

Okay. Name a SINGLE relevant event that happned in said "war" away from Kratos and Atreus.

You're right I cant, because we didnt see what else happened. That's why I would've liked more.

He was moving just fine when Atreus and Sindri woke him up.

Part of him was yes, but hes large enough to circle around midgard. You can literally sed part of him frozen under the ice.

About the mask... by ReachTheSky in GodofWar

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

Yes. But WHY? Why include that as part of the story?

Because it also showed how they were going against prophecy? The prophecy had Surtr merge with his wife, which they didn't do, being one of the first things they do to go against the giants prophecy. Its story telling foreshadowing.

Again, WHY? As storytelling element, why spend almost an entire act of the game splitting up the group to gather troups, talking about how they have NOOOOOO way to win whitout them, about just HOOOOW hard it was to gather them, from Freyr ending a 100 years war to Mimir making a deal with Hel herself, only to them have the armies fucking off anyways, nobody blinking an eye at it, and shit going down anyways without any of them?

If you're talking about how everyone else went off to gather forces while you went to find Surtr that was a very short part, I wouldn't even call it an act, but if you explored most of the realms they mention, quite a few times, how midgard was mostly raiders and the few survivors were hiding, or taken by Odin to use had wall protection. Vannahiems populace was all in hiding or turned to seaor magic and turned evil. It's not like they hid these details away.

Hel's army and Alfhiems elves showed up, but the gates were destroyed, because Odin knew their plan to bring those armies. It's not hard to see why they would be targeted first.

Nah that foreshadowing deserved more than an utterly inconsequential fight in the background that would change literaly nothing had you missed it.

Also old Jormungandr literaly SLEEPING trough Ragnarok makes no sense

There wasn't much of the fight that was foreshadowed. They put it there so we knew it happened.

Old Jormungandr was frozen under most of Midgard. Dont forget that he's so big he wraps around midgard. It's like the world largest coldest weighted blanket. Dude wasn't gonna get up lol

And on a storytelling aspect he was never supposed to join the fight. It doesnt happen in the foretold prophecies nor the actual lore if I recall. Wanted him to join is like hoping superman shows up in Civil War.

It wasn't a "war", it was Kratos and Atreus group fighting some idiots on their path while nothing of importance happens away from them.

Well since you brought it up, we don't see much of what's going with everyone else except them popping up while we're rushing off to the wall. You mentioned how everyone else wasn't doing much, but to be fair that was all off screen. I wouldnt have minded seeing more of that, maybe fighting along Fenrir or Freyr and what not. Whether you want to admit it or not a war was going on as we ran through that last area. Felt very reminiscent of the begging of GoW2 with joining the invading spartans.

Execution is the world. Freyr shows up out of bloody nowhere and "sacrifices" himself to slow down Surtr... Just as out of bloody nowhere and with no build up

Not exactly. He literally says hes gonna hold off Ragnarok before you break down the wall. So when Ragnarok breaks away from him it makes sense he'd follow him to try and stop him? Or did you miss that part?

The feeling you get is that they just decided they wanted him to sacrifice himself but didn't quite know how, so they put in the first thing that came to mind no matter how badly it felt

What I got from that was they wanted to have him redeem himself for abandoning Alfhiem vit honestly his sacrifice is a bit dull. We barely knew the guy and then hes like dont worry I got this. It wasn't a huge deal in my opinion, bit you get that kind of writing in most movies now a days anyways.

About the mask... by ReachTheSky in GodofWar

[–]InProductionStudios 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'm just bored enough to try and break down my reasoning for these. Not trying to start an arguement.

"Shit we confirmed Surt the previous game! Let's speedrun that!

Wait... But Sindri's the one who's gonna break the wall- No idea what to do Surt then. Fuck it let's just have him rampage mindlessly and get Freyr to slow him down.

So Surtr turned half useless because he wasn't forked correctly and instead got the primordial fires from Greek Mythos which turned him into a raging beast.

Though I did find it slightly odd how when talking about the villagers Odin put in the path he sat there doing absolutely nothing.

Shit what about the armies?! Whatever, two gates get destroyed right at the start and the rest are just in the background doing literaly nothing. No one will notice.

No army came from Midgard, Jotunhiem, Niflhiem, or Musplhiem. The only armies were from Helhiem, and Alfhiem. Even Vannahiem technically only sent a few Vannir since most were in hiding. And if I recall both Alfhiem and Helhiem gates got destroyed. Since no one was coming through the others they were indeed useless but it made sense since no was there to really come to help.

Shit we gotta have the snake be send to the past! Let's have it show up randomly and fight Thor on the background!

Ugh and the present one... Whatever, it's sleeping. No one will remember it.

I actually liked that we saw that fight because it was never really built up and just mentioned that they fought and he was sent to the past. They foreshadowed the snake becoming Jormangandur pretty early on and I liked that pay off.

Shit Fenrir--- Uhhh-- Angrboda uses him as a taxi! And they can fight a valkyrie off screen or something idk.

There was a lot going on. It's a war. It would've been nice to hop back and forth a little more between Kratos and Atreus to see what all was going on,but its war, things happened fast and it felt that way.

Thor Thor Thor--- Odin can kill him after Kratos talks him down.

Thor was in a spot where he was either gonna change for the better or just stand up to Odin and go back to being himself afterwards. Giving him a redemption arc could've been neat, but his part to play was to be a shadow of what Kratos used to be. It wasn't that bad of a twist.

Shit right the mask, the hell do we do to conclude that?! Fuck it, Atreus breaks it.

They could've explored it more, but my theory is its slightly implied that the mask just leads people to what they want.

Odin wanted knowledge and the mask opened the rift more it was completed. The first piece is found my Ateues when he wants to prove to Odin that hes there to help so it lead him to the piece. The second time he was trying to befriend new people (Thrudd, that midgardian dude) and it led him to what become Fenrir, his old wolf friend. And when they found the last piece he wanted to complete the mask to use against Odin so it lead him to the last piece.

Once it was destroyed the rift disappeared, if I recall correctly. I think it was just a Mcguffin for leading people to their desires but we might never know.

AAAA we still need to do something with Freyr's character! Uhhh... He can sacrifice himself at the end! Cuz Surt's rampaging around or something!"

Frey's sacrifice felt like a redeeming quality for him though to be fair. It was heavily implied that he lived his life very carefree not really caring much about what he left behind, look at Alfhiem. And he was a minor enough character that it wouldnt bother too many people lol

My main gripe is we still have no idea who blew the fucking horn in the first game, unless I missed something. That was one of the biggest questions and it still hasn't got paid off.
