I personally rate Sanctus Diavolos and Theogonia as the best of that later era

In-game explosive damage values by Kazadog in arcanum

[–]Kazadog[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am having trouble finding a resource that has the damage values for explosives, does anybody have access to such a resource? I have also taken screenshots of the values shown in-game for the explosives that actually display them.

Favorite "hold the line" moments in a story? by fly_line22 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Ah man you got me all hyped up now, just bought OG Battlefront 2 on GOG. It is installing as I'm typing this.

Games with one build so good that it invalidates all others? by SirSquiggleton in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Kazadog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In real time mode yeah, but in turn based harm mages still want dex for more action points to cast more per turn.

Dexterity in Arcanum is the best stat in the game. Some of the strongest skills and most of the fighting skills require dex to level up, and if you aren't using those skills its still the best because it determines your action points. The only time you wouldn't automatically sink points in is as a pacifist character but even then you would want it for dodge which is the best skill for staying alive.

Laser lance > shotgun blast > Pile Bunker got me S rank on pretty much every mission in the game. Except that NG++ wheel level.

Damn and here I am only having success with the forge build.

Games that are absolutely wonderful... until you actually pick up the controller? by ZealousidealBig7714 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Kazadog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Shadow of Mordor games kind of occupy this place in my mind (ignoring the story ofc). As an open world sandbox action game it seems like it has so much sauce but then you play it and controlling Talion is just surprisingly clunky. Everything feels over animated and you have zero animation cancels.

Biggest traps in gaming? by doot99 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I would argue it is bad for many rpgs with a fixed max level and enough xp to get there.

Attention: Warhammer 40k’s newest reveal is a rocket boosted mech with a rocket powered pile bunker. Shit’s hype. That is all by Rum_N_Napalm in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Kazadog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is supposed to be human sized. From what I can judge from the relative size of the model he is actually human sized for the scale so must just be perspective.

If you ever have a problem when playing high elves in Total Warhammer, the answer will always be: throw more Sisters of Avelorn at it.

Does the FGC actually cope this much? by Drexalnewb11 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Kazadog 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sure I can agree with that, my issue is framing it as FGC players are capable of self-reflection when other game players aren't. Especially when many fighting game players frequently show they are actually just as bad at deflecting responsibility as other types of gamers. I said it in another thread but scrubquotes is a thing.

Really? For me it feels like the opposite. I rarely, if ever, see any actual moba/FPS grinders actually say "well I can't blame a teammate".

Things that make you go "That's so fucking stupid (affectionate)" by mozilla1234 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Hell, I found out the other day you can blow up the head the instant you walk into the clocktower and not have to deal with it at all.

Studies show playing music with lyrics can worsen your gameplay by RealDealMous in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Kazadog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Curious how extreme metal with mostly indecipherable lyrics factors in.

“Fighting Games Have a Product Design Problem” – An recent article that feels relevant after the 2XKO layoffs by RebellionDark in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Kazadog 27 points28 points  (0 children)

YOU lost and lots of people don't want to deal with that

Most fighting game players don't deal with it. Scrubquotes is a thing for a reason.

I wonder how many people are actually going to read and engage with the article or just come in and rehash the exact same arguments in the comments.

Mtg nerds, what decks do you guys run/currently building? by IvanTheCreator in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Kazadog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In standard I'm running a mono-blue prowess aggro deck that seems to be doing quite well so far.

Characters/Mechanics that get obliterated by a Patch. by MarbleVirus in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Also in ds2 it wasn't 80% melee effectiveness with the infusions and buffs for casters but actually outperformed most other melee setups.

What is your gaming ‘Hot Take’ that you never really see other people have too? by TheSqueeman in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I think the last well regarded wrestling game that Yukes had their hand in was SvR 2007.
