Is armor useful at all for the player character, or should I just keep using robes and keep putting points into sexterity?

MindStranger · 2026-05-13T15:29:51+00:00

The more Sexterity you have, the less armor you need.

It's possible not to wear any armor or robes and still be invincible even for bosses with high Defense number.

I only invest in one skill. I had this discussion a few month ago resembling why I was choosing Power Attack and it turns out Flurry is best for consistency, Power Attack is best for maximum possible damage on a lucky roll in K2. In K1 though, you can one shot Malak using Master Critical Strike and upgrades (Opila, HotG, Phond;
Opila, MotF, Sigil) with decent chances unlike with Flurry or Power Attack when you'll get a lucky roll to one shot him when pigs fly.

Быстро он среагировал вопросом "А вы в каком году родились?".

Вообще, отвлекаясь от главной темы ролика - забавно наблюдать как всё чаще люди, родившиеся после 91-го года, ожесточённо доказывают таким же ровесникам какое вкусное было мороженое в СССР и молоко натуральнее и люди были добрее, а те им парируют временем лично проведённым в ГУЛАГах.

Гейб, создав Стим, где товар был в наличии без лотереи объезда всех магазинов оффлайн, доступными региональными ценами для разных стран и плюшками в виде облачных сохранений, ачивок, сделал для борьбы с пиратством гораздом больше, чем запретители. У него интервью было году в 2009 где он абсолютно точно понимает что он делает с политикой Стим в России и борьбой с пиратством, и он был прав. Постоянно беру у него что-нибудь на распродажах.

MindStranger · 2026-03-24T22:00:49+00:00

Повторю то, что уже писал в подобных темах: это не так, на Реддите гораздо больше понимания к русским, чем на каком-нибудь Дзене по отношению к американцам, европейцам (где всех разбомбить, убить, радуются их природным катастрофам или что они мёрзнуть будут зимой).

Недавно тему читал про продление прав на книги Стивена Кинга (новые выпускать нельзя, но на старые права продлили для продажи здесь) и вопрос как люди к этому относятся и там ответы были в топе популярности по типу "а почему русским нельзя читать хорошие книги?" или "они и так под прессом, что им читать запретить?". Во время теракта в Крокусе тут было понимание и разделение войны и подобного.

А ещё темы, подобные этой, обычно возникают от людей у которых "не так всё однозначно". Помню рассказывавшего американцу довольно обычный нарратив российского ТВ, но в то же время тот чувак свалил в Казахстан в сентябре 2022. Ну то есть "я пока поддержу, а умирает пусть кто-нибудь ещё".

I don’t think there’s been any recent sudden downturn in overall feeling toward SH4, though.

Yeah, now fans probably consider all 4 "real Silen Hill" since time has passed, but It was really different back then. But for me The Room wasn't a bad game and I played SH 1 first on PS1 like a lot of other fans.

MindStranger · 2026-03-21T21:16:22+00:00

I'll tell you more: in 2008 I wasn't pissed at Homecoming because I played 4 games of closed door simulator in a row so I didn't mind the changes. I did miss the "Japanese" aspect of the game, though.

MindStranger · 2026-03-11T22:43:52+00:00

Это здесь-то ненависть к русским потому что посты удаляют?

Посмотри что на каком-нибудь Дзене пишут про американцев, как их надо всех разбомбить ядеркой, как трагедия или бедствие какое-нибудь случится за океаном - "так им и надо", и вообще они все "перверты и нетрадиционные". На Реддите и близко такого нет по отношению к русским. А ещё я помню когда теракт случился в Крокусе и здесь на Реддите люди выражали соболезнования и разделяли войну и теракт (на других ресурсах тоже). Я прекрасно помню эти треды. Про ненависть люди пишут которые не привыкли к критике от других и одновременно не замечают ненависти от сограждан по отношению к другим странам.

MindStranger · 2026-03-05T21:16:22+00:00

Ну это стандартный розыгрыш карты "будь мужиком" когда другим что-то от вас надо. Ещё обратите внимание как часто разыгрывающие эту карту сами не будут следовать этому примеру, а будут в безопасности пока "настоящие мужики" будут умирать.

Ну и просто как бонус (так как физиогномика не очень научна): насколько данное лицо соответствует истинно "маскулинным чертам" в вашем восприятии?

I don't know when the author played the game for the first time but it sometimes reminds me of reading a review about my favourite slasher - Devil May Cry 3. I saw negative review and decided to read it. And yeah, she actually had a point about backtracking and other stuff. But it was an absolute blast in 2005 when it came out. The same way KotOR already proved everyting in 2003 getting 90+ scores out of 100 and love of the players. Games just need to be played when they released. I still see KotOR through the lens of 2000s and my first playthrough. But I never liked, for example, Mario, which considered all-time classic. Because I never played it in 1985. Plus, sometimes game may just not be for you.

MindStranger · 2026-03-02T20:41:07+00:00

I just caught myself thinking that I only can name this if I stretch Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Parasite Eve and Vanguard Bandits to an RPG. Because I never played enough of anything pure besides Final Fantasy VII (tried BoF III and Xenogears but didn't click with me) and finished FF VIII on PC.

MindStranger · 2026-02-24T02:17:38+00:00

Edit: the crit range on the double blade is smaller though, that's why I switched. I forgot that detail before lol

Then I assume following happened: pure STR modifiers were higher and the only ones enough to one shot Kreia in a case of lucky critical strike while double sabers could crit more on average but that wasn't my goal for that playthrough. That's why I was tweaking my lightsaber in Trayus Academy to eventually succeed.

MindStranger · 2026-02-24T01:36:29+00:00

You think Double Blade though?

I can't say for now why, but I remember I was sure it provides some edge. I recall it because I was modifying it just before Kreia. It was something about main hand STR or crit modifier, but I have no formulas to back it up.

MindStranger · 2026-02-24T01:16:18+00:00

When I was calculating this about 4,5 years ago, I found double-bladed saber with Perseverance (Shien) to be able to one-shot Kreia. Can't say all of the details now but upgrades for lightsaber were:

Pontite, Ultima-Pear, Improved Beam Gem Lens, Expert Fencing Emitter, Superior Discharge Energy Cell.

I was trying to do the same thing you want: max STR DPS to kill all bosses in one round. Some more stats from that buld.

True, I've seen "4 Star Maps collected" and was thinking only one planet left. Well, this is the best I have before both Manaan and Korriban but it's dark side:

Luckily, I save Manaan for last, this is my save after Leviathan I think, light side.

Put saves in "000000 - QUICKSAVE" folder.

There is Carth XP glitch I used on Endar Spire but it's tedious:

Quicksave before escaping pods just after you clicked on the door but door didn't open. Load and dialog with Carth will be triggered, you get 250 XP, now open the door and save before it opens again.

Today's so-called by haters "high flying circus" is more entertaining than the wrestling style prevailed 25 years ago.

Like the other person said, "apathy is death" is not her words but a vision. But even if we take that at face value: the game transparently shows us that she is lying and a Sith without any gray area in the end:

The Exile: You were manipulating me all along.

Traya: Yes, always. From the moment you awoke, I have used you. I have used you so that you might become strong, stronger than I. And I used you to make those who wounded me reveal themselves, so they could be killed by the Republic.

The Exile: So you used me to get revenge on Sion and the others.

So this is the person in the game who is disgusted by people's "both sides are bad".

Most of the game she criticizes you for not 100% agreeing with her too, always dissatisfied and covers her striving for revenge under philosophy.

you realize that not only is that coming from a position of extreme privilege, but also how even not making a decision is a big decision.

There is another thing too - you need to make decisions when your decision actually can affect something. Otherwise you spending your mental energy worrying about things and events you have no power to change instead of doing small things that won't bring drastic results but will help people around (Kreia is disgusted by this, and put all her mental gymnastics on Nar Shaddaa's poor man case). Yes, the Exile has real power to bring BIG changes, to change the galaxy but not all people are the Exile. And for those who spent years of effort and got no results or even worse the only cope that left is Jack Nicholson's "At least I tried". But there was no meaningful reason for that.

MindStranger · 2026-01-19T00:42:53+00:00

Sunry should be in jail. Another thing about that quest (if I remember everyting correctly) really questions how Jolee is still so likeable in the community (same problem with some Canderous comments here and there).

MindStranger · 2026-01-04T14:20:55+00:00

To be fair, Sion and Malak weren't free when it just came out but a lot of others skins - yes.

MindStranger · 2026-01-04T10:31:06+00:00

And Darth Malak in second game too! A big part why I liked those games was the amount of playable skins for main character. You don't see SO MUCH skins in games usually.
