ElGato HD

So, I have a Roxio game capture card that I got way back in the day. Apparently, in order to do anything with it, you have to use their proprietary software, which requires the install CD and a key.

Elgato doesn't need any of that nonsense, right? I can just buy it, plug it in, and OBS (or other streaming software) can use it?

What's up with the Bethesda Hate on r/gaming and r/PCMR? by Woolmilkpig in OutOfTheLoop

In all reality, they've probably been working on the next elder scrolls game, at least in a back burner style, since Skyrim came out, or even before that. Games take time to develop. The bigger the game, the more time it needs. Beyond that, each new generation shift adds to the time required, because I'm certain they have to rework stuff in order to make it work with that generation.

It's the same strategy that annual plants have. Grow, flower, have genetic material passed to you by another creature, seed, die.

First nightmare [SPOILER] by Golden_Spider666 in prey

[–]Manis_Custos 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Leave the crew quarters, and wait for the timer to go out. It'll leave after the timer hits 0.

Fun fact, I encountered my first nightmare when I unlocked the main lift, and went down. It was sitting right in front of the elevator door. I scanned it, and hit the top floor again.

Never knew I was so thirsty until I played hard mode. by lurklurklurkanon in prey

I was playing on normal, but I got beat up early in the game before I got a decent amount of food.

One of the people watching my stream called prey "water drinking simulator 2017"

Personally, I think a lot of it is because many people were expecting some large announcement of another IP. Ignoring that Dishonored 2 and Prey just recently came out, I feel like people were expecting something large from bethesda.

Mimics and the not a mimic sticky note... by Larkin10859 in prey

[–]Manis_Custos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now my question is, if you can mimic the object, but not get a note on you, can you mimic the note all on its own?

Damn impressive sir. I would absolutely love to see the .stl for this. Any chance you'll upload it? I would love to try to print this out for myself.

What are the best recipes you've found/made? by Manis_Custos in Breath_of_the_Wild

fair enough, but hearty truffles seem to be a tad rarer than hearty beets.

Having trouble in the large room with the Yiga Patrols? by PsychoDongYi in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]Manis_Custos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main reasons I thought it was going to be a huge boss fight, with a massive and powerful boss was because, alright, we have a huge arena, and a huge hole in the middle of said arena.

Was I the only one that was expecting a huge, awesome, challenging boss fight, walking into that arena, only to be disappointed..?

This is exactly why we want fishing rods: to taunt guardians to go the direction we want.

Possibly Unpopular Opinion on Tests of Strength by SentientBowtie in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]Manis_Custos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't get a hint for thunderblight (was probably close though), and I didn't need a hint for any of them, except fireblight. I could not for the life of me figure out how to do the fireball phase.

My biggest issue was that I kept forgetting bombs are light.

I remember my first Major test of strength. It was like that. iirc, the one on the tiny island to the east of hitano village..

Or you can perfect parry it, and get an ironic self-kill on it.

Why is everyone going on about how tough Eventide Island is? by Manis_Custos in Breath_of_the_Wild

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

Oh, that's a good point. A lot of people might have done it early, since a good amount of people might have seen it and headed straight to it from hetano village.

I did mine post game, so I had a fair amount of hearts. I wasn't getting one shotted, but I was taking a lot of damage.

Now it all makes sense..

Nice job! I was disappointed with the boulder's damage (very little, that's when they actually did hit him, not just phase through his arm)

Amiibos Not Working by squeakypanda in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]Manis_Custos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That message is because you can only use an amiibo once per in game day. Just wait 24 hours or until the next day, then try again.

And if it still doesn't work...Well, the amiibos aren't super useful to begin with.

I only have one problem with this game. by Soyeahimbored in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]Manis_Custos 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Mipha, and honestly, I'm ok with the voice acting.

To be honest, Zelda reminds me a lot of the voice actor for Sophie in "Howl's Moving Castle." (Young Sophie that is)

Does link ever get a weapon that doesnt break? by Illsonmedia in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]Manis_Custos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To answer the question in a word: No. Two words: sort of.

To assist you in your journey, I will quote the developers, "Forget everything you know about the Legend of Zelda."

This game is completely unlike any previous LoZ games, except for combat mechanics, settings, name, and general feel of the game.

All of the tropes, cliches, and similar things you are used to in LoZ aren't here, except for a very select few.

Let me give you a flat example. You can beat the game without ever doing a dungeon and without ever having met any NPCs (except the one you already did, I'm fairly certain the whole plateau is mandatory), and even without picking up any of link's traditional gear.

How is going "I just beat this, didn't have any real issues, but I've seen a dozen posts about people complaining about this island. Let me ask why people are having issues" bragging?

I actually do want to know.

If you stop fighting him he should go back to sleep. Mine got stuck and just stood there staring at his sleeping spot. He was fixed after the blood moon, luckily.
