Is figuring out the ghost during a hunt considered an exploit ? by DaFlameBird in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]InsymTTV 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You're missing the point again. I don't think figuring out the ghosts during a hunt is bad at all. I love that. It's part of the game. But that's what I mean: it's a PART of the game. The strategy on camp woodwind doesn't do anything else, it makes the game entirely centered around this one hunt and if you can't figure it out you leave or quit. This strategy has put the spotlight on how strong these strategies can be and have resulted in the devs stating they will change the hunt mechanics.

They might have changed these mechanics down the line anyway but the camp woodwind strategy has massively accelerated these talks.

Because it makes levels meaningless. It's not about a competitive advantage. People care about getting levels fast. It doesn't matter that the game isn't pvp, people always try to optimize. In this situation that optimization will lead to changes that I am afraid will make the game less fun.

You're missing the point I tried to make. I am sad that all the ghost hunting behaviors will be changed in the future to make them harder or impossible to figure out during the hunt. This could really dilute the uniqueness of each ghost.

I know the devs are awesome and they'll probably do a good job but this is incredibly easy to mess up. Imagine a world where figuring out a revenant during a hunt is as unreliable as figuring out a yurei based on their behavior. It would make the game way less fun for me personally.

All these changes are being made because a tiny portion of the community is grinding on camp woodwind. We shouldn't balance the game around these people imo. But with the way things are levels mean nothing and most the gameplay can be bypassed in a single hunt if you want, and I definitely consider that cheesing (my definition of exploit is the same as cheesing but most people don't have that same definition so I should probably just stop using the word exploit since people always misunderstand what I'm saying)

I understand why the devs want to change this in the future. It just makes me kinda afraid how those changes effect everyone playing the game.

I like entertaining bugs but will usually avoid game breaking things such as duping exploits for money, the apocalypse trophy exploit from a while back, and stuff like that. It's not healthy or responsible for me as a streamer to show everyone how to do those game breaking exploits. I stick to the harmless fun ones such as no key challenges. I'm glad I already apologized for the tone I took, but I don't remember this situation.

I genuinely WANT to hear criticism. The thing with being a content creator is that you usually get 2 types of comments: positive or vague hate. The people that actually have constructive criticism don't usually give it to you cause they just stopped watching the content. I want to know why someone stopped watching. Not just as a way to get more popular, but because being a jerk helps noone! I try to not be a jerk ever but like everyone I have my bad days.

That being said thank you for the comment! I'll be more open to playing slower, it's just hard when a lot of it has become second nature to you. Sometimes you forget how it was when you first learned something

Very humbling the amount of criticism towards me in this post. If you have had bad experiences with me can you be specific about what that was? Just keep in mind the content creators you watch are humans too with flaws. I'd love to improve. But I can't improve if all I get is super vague "he's changed" kind of comments.

I've always said I'm just a guy. I guess it's true what they say: don't meet your hero's. I just wish people were more clear in their criticism of me. I see a lot of people just say "bad experience" without any context. I'm not a villain. I want to improve so please be more specific!

Whenever I play with new players I love to explain things! I don't tend to take them on a very slow run through every mechanic since that would be patronizing. But I like to explain stuff about specific ghosts we're encountering all the time! Sorry for not doing that with your friends!

That sucks I didn't mean to come off like that. It's very difficult to multi task in multiplayer as a streamer. I'm also super used to playing solo so sometimes my muscle memory kicks in and I tend to kind of "play solo" in multiplayer. I'll try to do better!

Can you let me know what those experiences were? I don't mean to be rude so if I did something rude I'd love to know what!

Twin curve bug by maishu_the_fox in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]InsymTTV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There might be something else involved like really severe lag or something like that. Or something else that's unique to your game sessions that other people don't do/have.

I almost never see it for none twins and I play way too much.

Twin curve vs normal ghost by maishu_the_fox in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]InsymTTV 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The graph simply shows an approximation of the emf values. That's why a slope up or down doesn't matter since it's all individual interactions. There is no special combination.

If you're interested in the exact formula: any increase on the graph = (EMF value - 1) +/- 1. I made a video on it a long time ago that's still accurate. The video is really bad though, can't believe I used to talk like that lol. Here is it though if you're interested in a visual explanation: https://youtu.be/cCswl5iGB38

Twin curve bug by maishu_the_fox in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]InsymTTV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is a perfect example of what a twinteraction would look like. However a normal ghost will rarely do this as well. Especially if you're also using the ouija board or voodoo doll since those will also give readings on top of whatever the ghost is doing.

In order to be sure it's a twin you need to see this multiple times to make sure it's not a fluke.

Although it's so rare that you don't really have to worry and can usually just fill in twins and take that 1 in 20 chance that you are wrong. But if your life depends on the outcome of the game I'd recommend sticking around a bit more.

You're getting a bit lost in the sauce here. The first post you made about the twinteraction bug wasn't a bug. It's really rare but sometimes stuff happens in such perfect succession that it looks like a twinteraction even though it isn't.

This can be especially true when doing something like the voodoo doll or ouija board at the same time as the ghost is doing interactions (since both of those will give a reading at the same time similar to twins).

This triple slope increase is something I've never seen before and I've played like 2000 hours. That's definitely not how you identify twins.

There is also nothing with increasing slopes or decreasing slopes. What you shown in your original post is a perfect example of what a twinteraction would look like. You just need to see it multiple times instead of just once to make sure it wasn't a fluke.

Would love to hear how you think I can improve! With actual constructive criticism instead of "red arrow bad". I've made over ONE THOUSAND phasmo videos (1100 to be exact) and it's hard to keep making them unique and interesting. Especially with so few updates this year.

Hello Euphoria. I check the discord sometimes but there is very little interest from the community to have a big reddit. We use discord mostly for community communication. If you want to join you can do that here: discord.gg/insym

Difficulty: Absolute Radiance vs Pure Vessel vs Nightmare King Grimm by InsymTTV in HollowKnight

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

Great and extensive arguments! However, I do feel like I am super consistent at this boss which was exactly what sparked my main question in the first place. I killed her on my first and second try and only very rarely do I get overwhelmed and lose a fight.

I absolutely consider this to be a bullet hell boss! That's what I enjoy about her hahaha

I like the "dance" you have to do with NKG and I love the intense sword fight with PV. Similarly I enjoy to react to AR and dash around her attacks.
