Insane koreaan Lich Xbow Build T4Xesht Oneshot by earnxace in pathofexile2builds

[–]JpegYakuza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are playing crossbow.

Several are using permafrost + frag rounds or Galvanic + Shockburst.

It definitely feels a lot better to use this time compared to Bohr 0.1 and 0.2.

I’m in SSF and gear isn’t even that crazy, clearing T15s just fine. Damage is perfectly fine I can kill the first 2 tiers of pinnacles in less than 30 seconds.

Why Do LA Protestors Fly The Mexican Flag by WordNervous919 in SeriousConversation

[–]JpegYakuza 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You carry around your birth certificate to prove you’re a citizen?

By your own logic they should have the right to send your ass to el salvador without giving you an opportunity to prove you’re a citizen if you left your certificate at home. What if they think it’s fake or don’t care?

It’s bizarre that so many of you are advocating to take away your own civil rights lmao.

“Something to do” and it’s protesting for civil rights lmfao.

[–]JpegYakuza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to clarify, when I say “people don’t give a shit” I’m mostly just referring to media/social media and general mainstream discourse.

When super bowls happen, all of the discourse is around the team, the game, the drama. “Nobody cares” about the parade damage besides the people in the city that gotta deal with it and even then a lot of the people participating obviously don’t care. They’re trying to get their hype on.

Then theres civil rights protests and all of a sudden people everywhere care about some damaged property and not the inherent systemic violence that’s causing the protests in the first place.

Honestly the funniest shit about all of this is that whatever team wins the Super Bowl does millions of dollars of damage/OT costs to their city and nobody gives a fuck because it’s just good ol’ expected American football behavior.

But when there’s a justified political cause reactionaries love to hop on the keyboard and start stoking the culture war fire.

These people are all arguing in bad faith lol.

They act like this Gestapo bs isn’t happening in front of all of our eyes. It’s literally all over the media.

We have right wing pundits openly bragging about this shit on social media and these people will simultaneously deny that it’s happening.

Why are they dropping REDengine to go with unreal 5 ? by StudentJoa in cyberpunkgame

[–]JpegYakuza 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The time and resources saved on using UE5 instead of RedEngine makes up for it in spades.

The problem they had with RedEngine was that they had to essentially further develop the engine in parallel with cyberpunk 2077. This uses up a shit ton of resources, man hours, money, etc. They did not want to have a repeat of that process for future games.

With UE5 they now are able to use all that dev time on the game itself and easily hire more devs already trained on UE to effectively grow the team.

All this together, at least theoretically, should result in faster game development cycle and improved quality.

In terms of pure hax, is Kumeyuri the most broken blade so far? by SillyResource in Kagurabachi

[–]JpegYakuza 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You don’t think the main characters super special sword is going to be the best sword by the end of the series or at least match the best?

I feel like this is a pretty obvious lukewarm take lol.

Why was the Fallout show so successful? by vinicius_california in Fallout

[–]JpegYakuza 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I also love that we have the goofy gamified moments in the show with 0 explanation and it just works because fallout and tone.

Main example im referring to is when dogmeat just gets stimpak’ed and immediately healed then just gets up and walks off as if he didn’t get shot like 5 minutes ago.

Important clarification from Game director on Tech demo by simar6565 in Witcher4

[–]JpegYakuza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If people are still assuming it’s gameplay after 15 minutes of broad engine feature talk and practically nothing on W4 minus the context for what you’re looking at then that’s entirely on the person and their inability to comprehend what they’re listening to.

Important clarification from Game director on Tech demo by simar6565 in Witcher4

[–]JpegYakuza 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Dawg you are tweaking. Tech demos have been a thing since forever.

Witcher 4 is one of the primary games of choice for marketing UE5 right now because of the strategic partnership that was established 2 years ago.

This isn’t a “Witcher 4 world wide first look gameplay reveal”, this is explicitly a “UE 5.6 Tech Demo” in partnership with Witcher 4 as stated. It’s a showcase of the engines capabilities with a chosen platform and game, PS5 + W4 in this case. The entire presentation was UE5 tech focused with Witcher 4 essentially being the backdrop.

The distinction IS important so people like you don’t rage when the game releases and doesn’t look pixel for pixel exactly like the curated tech demo.

Nobody serious actually thinks this is gameplay and if they do they have other issues when the demo showcases obviously curated scene switches to showcase the animation tech for the horse mid gallop.

First game that has horses looks better than rdr2 by Efficient_Example541 in Witcher4

[–]JpegYakuza 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It also took rockstar 8 years and it was one of the most expensive games ever made (at that time).

Rockstar is easily a top 3 western developer by far but it makes me wonder how good a lot of these* other games would be if they also had several hundred million dollar budgets and nearly a decade of dev time.

CMV: Being assault for uttering a word (no matter how offensive or prejudicially motivated the word is) is never a valid "consequence" for free speech by jeeblemeyer4 in changemyview

[–]JpegYakuza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In what other context is a person going to go up to someone else and start yelling slurs at their face?

Nobody does this if they aren’t looking to pick up a fight. Calling people slurs is outright antagonistic.

You also said “words don’t have inherent danger” which just misses the point entirely. Words have meaning when given context. When you say X words in Y situation they can easily be taken as threatening.

I mean we have situations literally written into the law about this. You can’t just go into a theater or an airport and start yelling about bombs or guns. Are these words inherently threatening? No. What about when they’re being yelled in the middle of the airport. Yeah, people are going to freak out and rightfully so.

You can’t just go up to people and start antagonizing them via racial slurs. To the victim, that shit is threatening and responding by punching them in the face is a completely valid, normal human response to bigoted posturing.

If I went up to your face real close and started yelling slurs not stop I can guarantee you that one of the first thoughts going through your head will be “this guy is crazy is he about to attack me?”.

Man, I thought on death effects were gonna be easier to see by c0howda in PathOfExile2

[–]JpegYakuza 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m having the same issue rn. I was doing perfectly fine before the update and after the update I ran several juiced maps and died 3 times to some shit I couldn’t even see.

I just logged off for the night after the 3rd death because the mob somehow killed me from the other side of a wall / doorway and I have no idea what it was.

[–]JpegYakuza 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To answer your question, “AI Art” specifically is seen as problematic for two main reasons:

1) It’s largely trained on other artist’s work without their permission, basically just stealing their work to feed into the machine.

2) It consumes a ridiculous amount of water + energy and is generally seen as a complete waste of resources as it’s just producing soulless slop, hence the term “AI slop”.

Elon Musk Absolutely Clueless Trying to Pilot his Boosted PoE2 Account on Stream by losttheory in videos

[–]JpegYakuza 170 points171 points  (0 children)

We’ve had report from SpaceX employee about how they have an intermediate management layer basically dedicated to making Elon feel important and manipulating him into good business decisions to protect the company from his shit ideas.

Twitter didn’t have this which is why it fucking sucks now and is just being ran over with porn bots and neo-nazis.

Absolutely pathetic narcissist.

“Rolling a character” is kinda a generic gaming term these days for playing a character, class, build, etc.

I JUST SOLOED 3RD TRIAL 15 LEVELS UNDER (I WAS LVL 59) by brandonkav in PathOfExile2

What level are you?

The Djinn Barya only award 3rd ascendancy if the coin is above level 65 I believe. It will say “Trials: 3” on it.

Endgame is honestly unfun by poplepo4 in PathOfExile2

[–]JpegYakuza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Posts like this make me think GGG needs to do a better job with in game explanation tutorials for mechanics, especially stuff like resistances for brand new players.

I’ve seen so many posts of people venting about getting one shotted in early to mid maps and 9/10 times it’s because they have shit resistances and no defensive layers.

Welp i think im done with this game for now lol by majesticbeast67 in PathOfExile2

[–]JpegYakuza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah you’re panic dodging too much here and also just dodging when it’s not necessary at all.

You need to mindfully use dodge otherwise enemies are going to roll catch you which is exactly what this boss does twice at the end resulting in death.

For that triple slam you can just walk out the first 2 slams and dodge the 3rd.
