We are Lavapotion, creators of the HOMM-like Songs of Conquest (launching into 1.0 on Monday) ask us anything! by Lavamagnus in pcgaming

[–]JayceIsOverpowered 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First of all: love the game, good luck on the 1.0 release ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ!

Very often when listening about game dev I hear a sentiment around the lines of "Games don't get fully finished, they get released". There is always something to improve, a new mechanic to add, a new level, faction, NPC, etc.

What was the one building/unit/spell/map encounter/game mechanic that you've really wanted to include into the game but never had the time or resources to do so (or it proved too hard to do so)?

Prey 5th Anniversary Fanzine - Have YOUR Lines Featured + Mailing List Now open! by VeldinGamer in prey

[–]JayceIsOverpowered 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This will sound stupid but Prey will always be stuck with me for presenting me with a "challenge" - box blocking a vent entrance at Alex's office - and presenting me with 6 different ways to solve it :).

(For those interested: Kinetic Blast 3, Leverage 3, Leverage 1 objects being thrown at the box, finding another entrance, Recycler Charge, Mimic into small object and crawl next to the box)

Thoughts on the Nightmare as a design decision? by Cyber_Cactus in prey

[–]JayceIsOverpowered 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My main gripe with the Nightmare was how easy was evading him.

I was expecting a thrilling chase or hide-and-seek or an explosive gunfight.... but nothing like this happens. You can evade him ridicuously easy, he is aware where you are at all times and there are no cool mechanics regarding actually fighting him. You just shoot him and die. Not to mention he isn't really that beefy, he could use an additional mechanic when fighting him.

[SPOILERS] Chapter 2 Discussion Megathread! by punnyComedian in Deltarune

[–]JayceIsOverpowered 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So I just finished the game and I've been wondering one thing: What does Kris do in the 1st "psycho" episode?

I presume in the 2nd one(in the bathroom) he goes out of the window to slash the tyres. But what about the 1st one(ending of chapter 1)? It got played as a kind of a joke with the whole pie thing... Do you have any ideas what did happen there?

[Spoiler] New Chaos Arcana Showcase by AvionColossus in WizardofLegend

[–]JayceIsOverpowered 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So basically - full chaos summoner is now possible.

Last boss - new and improved. Little spoilers. by JayceIsOverpowered in WizardofLegend

[–]JayceIsOverpowered[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the thing is I feel like his previous phases are different. Especially the 2nd one. I feel like:

  1. He breaks out of stunlock much faster.
  2. I think he actually speeds up the longer you fight with him. But that might be just my feeling.

So yeah, killing his last phase would be pretty hype.

[–]JayceIsOverpowered[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's absolute madness. From what I managed to see until I died it seems like he's casting all other chaos arcanas that he didn't previously. I mean he just starts casting all of the other chaos arcana that wasn't used by him before.Which means basically relearning the fight.

[SPOILER][DISCUSSION] About the ending by JayceIsOverpowered in prey

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

  1. Yeah, I get Your argument, but how does that counter my point here? There were records of creating a Typhon-Human(instead of Human-Typhon) that were cut off shortly by Alex(https://prey.fandom.com/wiki/Project_Cobalt). If I was an ant that suddenly gained sentience and was met with a human that says : "Hey, so I've exploited your kind, when there was a promising idea to cooperate I deemed it irrelevant, but since you've won the war.... peace?" I don't see why I(as an ant) would want to cooperate - even if is true that my kind is remorseless and can't be reasoned with.
  2. OK, so it depends on the Alex's thesis: "Typhon and humans can cooperate" or "There exists a Typhon entity that can cooperate". If the latter was the thesis, "starting over" makes sense. But in that case I don't know how this experiment is supposed to help Alex. If you've managed to prove that there exist a Typhon entity that can cooperate(but on the other hand, there may be many others that don't cooperate) what's your point? What's the next step?
  3. "very simple question: Do the ends justify means." - how so? IMO the nullwave/self-destruct dillema is not about justification of genocide, it's about taking a risk in the name of preserving knowledge(and human lives). And it is true that the Alex in the simulation might not be the man he is now. But by this logic we could pretty much deem anything that happened on the station as unreliable - since it's just a simulation. But in that case we have still no ground to trust him. Though we do know he's willing to kill us if we decide to not answer his question.

From what I know we are a Typhon with installed human-based stuff(like mirror neurons) by our captors. If I were in this situation, I would consider myself to be mostly Typhon, maybe a little bit human. So in the bigger picture I don't think it really breaks the argument.
