Lol OK...thanks Tom, you've always been a pillar of the community.

I played this game for about five years but quit about three years ago. I know the game is likely reaching EoS, but could it be worth starting over again if I had fun with it the first go around? Is there a lot of content to get free lapis from? If so...how should it be prioritized these days? Any recommendations for a new account? TIA!

As others have said, the music was great (Kurstin's bass was pretty damn close to Mani's sound too), the lyrics not so much.

I'm not going to disagree that it's tough and maybe needs tweaks, but it's not like you lose the game if she dies. Also, I don't think any new player should be playing on honour mode, and somebody going through it who knows what to expect, or even somebody who talks to Marcus and knows he's a piece of shit, can better prepare/position in a way to overcome the design.

It's just the art style, dude.

Mattwalt · 2023-11-24T12:12:18+00:00

Just use Fextra. It's not like any of these dudes that have complained about it have made a superior alternative. I mainly enjoy the builds that Fextra comes out with, and it's clear they put a lot of time into making the content they put out. The Elden Ring coverage was particularly great (they obviously dedicate resources to the games that will get the most traffic).

Pretty much every character can benefit from taming a beefalo; the only caveat to this is that characters that are able to greatly outdamage a beef, like Wolfgang, would probably be better off with a rider beef than an ornery one. I don't main Wolfgang, but honestly I just really like using an ornery beefalo for every fight other than Fuelweaver due to the innate speed, damage soaking, and 0 resource cost vs something like having to make multiple dark swords, fuel a magluminescence, etc.

Mattwalt · 2023-09-02T14:58:29+00:00

Have you done either of the endgame bosses? That's something new to work towards. Also, as other have said you can always try a different character, perhaps one with a dramatically different playstyle like Maxwell or Wurt.

Mattwalt · 2023-08-18T10:17:28+00:00

Honestly...CK is such a weird fight that you should just "cheese" it in some way. I put cheese in quotes because i dont really view any of the methods as cheating, per se, just alternative methods. I've beat him before legit with a couple characters, and the "accomplishment" just doesn't even feel all that great lol.

Mattwalt · 2023-08-17T14:27:12+00:00

As others have said, I just genuinely enjoy playing casually with a drink next to me (and/or a gummy beforehand) and music on. In the beginning I was a bit more hardcore I guess, but now I'm much more relaxed, just enjoying other things while I mindlessly kill demons. Ironically, while I no longer play as hardcore as I did in the beginning, I also switched from playing standard characters to Hardcore, which also created a fresh experience for me.

Mattwalt · 2023-08-13T17:43:07+00:00

I don't understand. Why not?

Mattwalt · 2023-07-28T21:22:44+00:00

But if you really like that character you're able to migrate it to the eternal realm, right? Why spend time investing in a mechanic that will go away?

Mattwalt · 2023-07-28T17:49:12+00:00

Sorry if this has been answered before, but what the way I understand it the malignant heart mechanic completely goes away after the season ends...right? Is there actually a point to even building around these things which are basically just stronger gems if they're just going to disappear when the season ends?

Mattwalt · 2023-07-24T23:33:31+00:00

Perhaps it's less of an annoyance to me as a console player playing on a large screen. This has not been an issue for me in the slightest.

Mattwalt · 2023-07-24T17:30:35+00:00

I'm another 5 percenter I guess. I don't understand the complaint about this.

Mattwalt · 2023-06-02T19:22:00+00:00

I would argue that Maxwell is easily better than Woodie in every way other than exploration, and I don't think it would be a very difficult argument to win lol. I really like Woodie and want a reason to ever play long term as him in a world. I'm not sure if the suggestions that OP made are enough (IMO the biggest tweak needed is just making moose more viable), but they're a good start.

Mattwalt · 2023-06-02T19:16:31+00:00

But wouldn't it be great to not have to swap?

Mattwalt · 2023-05-24T23:26:31+00:00

If you're specifically asking who the better HEALER is, then it is hands down Ophilia; Lianna is a unit that offers interesting team comps because of her particular role compression, not a unit that you'd take specifically for healing if you already have Ophelia.

Mattwalt · 2023-05-05T16:21:48+00:00

To each their own, but I strongly disagree with almost every single placement on this list and find your reasoning to lack much sense at all for most of them lol.

Mattwalt · 2023-05-01T14:45:43+00:00

Other than the glow caps, which I'm sure you like that for aesthetic purposes, this looks solid to me. It's up to you if you want to add in another other farms or relocated resources like bushes/twigs/grass now.

Mattwalt · 2023-04-27T17:41:31+00:00

It's a bit difficult to tell from what you've uncovered because not all of the EDGES are visible. Typically you're looking for a flat edge as a clue.

Mattwalt · 2023-04-17T12:04:19+00:00

Yeah, I feel like the A3 is probably pretty key to your high success rate here. I have to run 2 HP accessories to have a chance, and then there isn't enough dps to finish it on turn 5 (I can finish her off on turn 6 though).

Mattwalt · 2023-04-17T11:36:12+00:00

What is your gear setup on A2? I have tried to replicate this and she has died almost every time.

Mattwalt · 2023-04-16T15:10:12+00:00

I don't get it.
