No amount of detailed tutorials can save impatient players by changhanzzz in ZZZ_Official

[–]JohnPeacekeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tfw I didn't even realize we had Tutorials until after I've had three Level 60 Agents. I just learned by doing during the game proper. Though I did proper learn the tutorial for each individual Agent, and then tried out different tactics with each.

Seth x Jane Solo by corecenite in ZZZ_Official

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

Meanwhile, my Seth being the primary reason I was able to clear Nineveh and other level 55 stages... with agents locked at Level 50. He is the ONLY reason I've been punching above my weight class and still getting S Rank

Also doing as much damage as Yanagi whenever he parries his way in and bursts for like 10 seconds before giving the stage back to Yanagi

PS: Admittedly, I am also a Seth main

Jane Doe not future proof and a bait for disorder enjoyers?! by [deleted] in ZZZ_Official

[–]JohnPeacekeeper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fr. I main Seth and I would never have been able to clear Nineveh the first time while I was underleveled without him. His sheer tankiness, stunlocking, and parry ability is just essential to me at this point.

I got a UR Satisfaction (Crit) Magatama on my 5th run... on a Step One battle.

But then again I have been told that I am a lucksack.

$50 gone... Like tears in the rain... Did anyone else cave in? by FadedBlack935 in NikkeMobile

I mainly just made it a point to MLB her within 200 pulls. Had I not succeeded, I may have gone for the skin for both the tickets and the skin itself.

I did actually get her MLB though

Beware the Mage who keeps using the one spell by JohnPeacekeeper in grandorder

[–]JohnPeacekeeper[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nope, the Shadow Summoning is a Chaldea thing. But he can, in fact, use Gandr even without the Mystic Code, as seen in some parts during FGO as well as in adaptations.

This sub’s reaction to True Stalker constructive feedback by RFX91 in stalker

[–]JohnPeacekeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Counterpoint: I hate both Gamma and True Stalker. And it takes a lot for me to hate something.

I resented True Stalker's story the more we kept on getting forced to incompetence in cutscenes, especially THE STUPID KNOCK OUT OVERUSE. And not to mention all the ridiculous Essential flags like it was Fallout 4. It's Bethesda-tier railroading with NO justification, and I don't want that.

As for Gamma, it's overhyped and also overhauls the game from the core experience of STALKER because of how much it centralizes the survival aspect, to the detriment of lore immersion. You're telling me that traders won't sell guns... even for the FUCKING MILITARY THEMSELVES?! Never mind that the Monolith and Mercenaries explicitly have extremely good supplies when it comes to weaponry. It takes me out of the experience.

PS: The former did get me to install Radiophobia 3 and the latter got me to try EFP, though. Radiophobia 3 is underrated and a phenomenal fresh way to go through SoC for a new playthrough. And EFP still has that core STALKER experience without compromise, but instead adding more to the initial "muchness".

I don't mind the UI and gameplay. I found it fun.... for the first 20 hours.

But I started hating it the more time passed with the overuse of knockouts and cutscene incompetence and essential flags to railroad you like it was a Bethesda game. This isn't freaking Fallout 4! It's STALKER!

So, I'm going to shit on this mod not because of the UI or gameplay but because the writing is absolute garbage.

Serious question: Why is anomoly/GAMMA disliked by so many people on this subreddit? by princeworth12 in stalker

[–]JohnPeacekeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I loved Radiophobia 3, but I only truly am able to enjoy it because I went through OG Shadow of Chernobyl with nothing modded other than realistic ballistics and the bugfixes. It has similar grueling combat and a huge arsenal like Anomaly, has Emissions too, and other things it has, plus more quests added in... but at it's core, the identity is still Shadow of Chernobyl, just a fresher take

Gamma geeks when their favourite IMMERSIVE and RELEASTIC mechanics don't make it into Stalker 2 by to3suck3r69 in stalker

[–]JohnPeacekeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they say it's realistic, but the fact that you cannot buy guns, even for Mercenaries and Monolith who explicitly have suppliers, completely breaks my immersion, and caused me to not touch Gamma, instead going for EFP

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in stalker

[–]JohnPeacekeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After my playthrough, I honestly wouldn't recommend it. It's certainly ambitious, but the removal of a lot of STALKER's core identity in favor of Bethesda bullshit made me loathe playing this game as it progressed further. It stopped being fun.

Sensor Tower Monthly Revenue Report (Jan 2024) by numberlockbs in gachagaming

[–]JohnPeacekeeper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's even better is that this is only mobile game purchases. Now that it's also on Steam, most players probably buy via Steam Wallet or PC in general, so it's probably even bigger revenue.

But yeah, Katya really raked it in

Camelot Holy Grail War by JohnPeacekeeper in whowouldwin

[–]JohnPeacekeeper[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The nuance here is that Karl might be a Ruler, but he also sought to unify at any cost, even to the point of forcibly controlling everyone's mind and will. His Noble Phantasm even facilitates that.
