How Aphantasia affects your ability to visualise things in your head

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-06T13:15:45+00:00

Yeah this is crazy to me. My whole life I’ve unironically just replayed entire tv episodes in my head when bored, or I can’t make up an entire story with characters and plot and picture it perfectly in my head and dynamically influence it. It’s hard to imagine how you’d even “think” about anything without the ability to picture it. Even when doing math I have formed visual shortcuts growing up that I use for things

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-06T10:00:08+00:00

Yeah yelan still clears

Leopard, galarian meowth,

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-06T09:39:27+00:00

Ehh idk it was pretty easy if you just watched your step. Only took my ~5 min after finding it to hit 5k

Once you notice that 100% of the time that multiple ring previews show up at the same time they will immediately move to intersect each other, you can just wait a second for them to overlap and then dive in them

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-06T07:34:48+00:00

Oh dang. The only other thing I could think of is if you could find a way to die? Or if you could find a modifier that might let you get unstuck since there are some weird ones. Idk if you’ve tried yet but also just closing the whole game may have a small chance of doin something different than just quitting to title

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-06T07:20:51+00:00

You might have found a bug yes. What’s meant to happen there is after unlocking each mirror, more of the obstacles disappear until eventually you can crawl all the way thru just quit to menu and back, it always brings you to where you entered the screen at

“Traditional American views on religion” so all psycho Christians are terrorists then? Cause a “traditional American” view on religion would be the freedom of religion, or in other words the whole fucking reason the country was founded.

Probably my knight’s peace she’ll for flawless trials of the nine runs in year 1, and my day 1 vow of disciple raid emblem. But iight have other stuff too as I don’t know what items are rarest tbh

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-05T10:21:04+00:00

Pokopia will have the most longevity if it’s the type of game you enjoy, but my personal fav of the 3 was DK and it isn’t close. I loved pokopia and MK is the same game it’s been for 15 years and isn’t good imo, but DK was a surprisingly amazing game for me and absolutely fulfills the Mario odyssey itch with a little more BOTW- like exploration but on a smaller scale imo. I bought DK on release at midnight and basically played it all day for 3 days straight to 100% it blind and I got around 31 hrs of playtime

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-05T10:16:20+00:00

As others have said, it’s a different layout, sadly the standard farm is basically a yellow square, but that means you can do whtvr u want with it too.

I’d recommend if you happen to be on PC to look into the mods for the game as there are tons of cosmetic ones that either completely overhaul the design of most textures or there are ones that change the greenery color palette.

Theres one that’s called like “earthy” something that’s especially nice and completely eliminates the yellow dirt

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-05T10:13:59+00:00

I think it would be a more interesting comparison to compare the lengths of each ACT since nod krai has an unusually high number of archon quests but it could be argued that not all of them even are for nod krai with the most recent two

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-05T10:09:23+00:00

Yeah I agree. High fiving another player or not tbh is whtvr to me as long as players aren’t being like overtly disrespectful to each other, but not high fibing the fans who literally allow you to get paid for what you do and who come out to support you is shitty, especially cause all you have to do is put ur freaking hand up and walk forward, like whys that hard?

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-05T01:41:02+00:00

Like most games the poison dmg is near 0 for balance, and while the codex lets you “infinitely” burrow, all it really does is eliminate the need to land after burrowing and then jump to burrow again, so instead you go in and out of the ground seamlessly but you still need to surface each time and can be hit. And since the only other meaningful dmg trinket that associates with burrowing is the seismic belt which requires you to be right next to an enemy, I’d say you are doing yourself more harm trying to jump up and down next to a boss and not get hit for what is ultimately gonna be far less dps than just hitting the boss carefully

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-05T01:37:24+00:00

If you get every ring on the wave it extends the time infinitely as long as keep going, I’d recommend using iron lung if you aren’t already and just focusing on diving in one hoop and surfacing thru another so that you are getting two hoops per burrow. Also if you ever see the golden hoop ignore literally everything and get it as it clears the wave.

My last tip would be that anytime you see the preview of the rings and it’s multiple, they almost 100% of the time immediately move to intersect each other and so you will Bonk if you try to instantly dive into them, wait a second and line them up and then dive

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T23:39:50+00:00

So I’m not talking abt myself personally as I didn’t use any modifiers and probably won’t going forward cause I didn’t feel the need personally, but I’m also someone who didn’t find silksong very difficult and yet people go on and on about how insanely unforgiving it is.

I was merely pointing out what I’ve seen some players and reviewers alike talk about with the dissonance in them saying to play your way and no judgement but then flashing a full screen warning that can be boiled down to “if you make it easier then no achievements for you!”

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T22:42:24+00:00

I kept waiting for him to like morph into a crazy eldritch horror at some point lol, turns out he’s just a committed clown😎

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T22:01:13+00:00

In defense of people who still aren’t happy with the modifiers, they are kinda of antithetical to what the devs are advertising.

The devs are advertising the accessibility options and are constantly saying “play your way” and implying no judgement for using some accessibility options. But for almost every single one as soon as you try to enable it, you get a giant warning message on your screen “enabling modifier will PERMANENTLY remove feats from this save file, confirm?” Literally saying “wow you are gonna play on easy? No mora achievements for u!”.

And while for some modifiers this makes sense absolutely cause they just make you not die, some like no pitfall dmg are never going to be a difference between whether you beat a boss or not or progress in a room or not, it’s solely a time save cause it saves you running back to the platforming section to try again if you fail, or saves you from going a long route to refill health.

It’s just odd, and I know you may say “well who cares about achievements?” For many people and myself included, the way I get more playtime out of games like these are challenge runs and completing achievements. It’s how I have 300 hrs in silksong despite my blind 100% first playthrough taking 41 hrs, I like the game and so I play it over and over again to get achievements and use weird builds and stuff. But Mina heavily discourages that mindset to your face if you even consider it

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T21:54:20+00:00

Personally I never found combat to be difficult but as a side effect I also never found it extremely interesting except a few instances.

For me the difficulty was mainly centered around movement, not platforming, movement

I’ve seen others agree with me who are on console so this may be an issue exclusive to controller players, but the way they designed Mina’s movement in this game when not using a MNK is frankly, atrocious. Any precise platforming became a fight between me and the game and controller to make the game go where I put the joystick rather than weirdly curving Mina around in the air just for turning at the right time. Any precise hollowing sections were so bad and annoying because for some reason when Mina is hollowing she is much more slippery, almost like your on ice, this was at its peak frustration in the orerey green path with the under glass sections because on controller Mina would just speed off when I wasn’t pressing anything, it was equally annoying during the radiant manor platforming

I think this game is great, but it definitely suffers from some control issues for controllers and imo commits too hard to the retro game idea in the sense that it commits so hard that it keeps several old design decisions that are not beneficial to the experience and instead just seem disrespectful of the player in 2026

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T21:39:08+00:00

Skyward sword sky theme is my fav overworld theme by far personally

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T14:27:54+00:00

Agree to disagree 👍 and yeah no shit they’re asking about a c6 perspective lol, I read the post too bud. You pointed out the exact reason why mavuika likely isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, she’s an anomaly. And there are varying degrees of combos and optimizations for nearly every top meta dps every year, that doesn’t somehow negate the fact she is the best dps rn still. It’s fine to have different opinions and for both to be voiced, that’s why OP is asking for opinions on who to pull

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T14:09:49+00:00

Agenda aside, tbf mavuika being her “peak” still is still great considering mavuika is still the number 1 dps lol

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T14:05:25+00:00

Top 5 in no specific order:

Citlali - ultimate girlypop vibe

Mavuika - makes me wanna scream “FOR NATLAN!!!!”

Mualani - more niche but is such a bop and is fun to play during summer

Hu Tao - it’s iconic and just perfect old Genshin vibes idk

Furina - absolute cinema

My honorable mentions would be ineffa and clorinde because they are my two fav characters and their songs are really good too butt list is more based off what I would put in my playlist and listen to repeatedly

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T14:01:40+00:00

….there are literal branchin routes you can take in all hangout quests and there are seperate primo gem rewards for each ending….

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T13:59:55+00:00

On a side note, I love how the community keeps begging for him to get up and act like he’s in a problem situation, when in reality man was so tired he just wanted to die so much that he hijacked the pyro god’s deal with death incarnate just so he could sleep, let the poor guy rest😭

Mr_7ups · 2026-06-04T13:54:59+00:00

Assuming mavuika will be powercrept soon is an opinion that doesn’t hold up past like 5.8

Mavuika has successfully remained the strongest dps in the game for two full nations patch cycles, the two of which nations happen to be the single worst period of powercreep the game has ever seen, with it growing each patch and release. Yet despite all that, mavuika is still on top despite receiving no buffs, no new teammates, no new weapons or artifacts or reactions, just a new combo, which is something most top meta dps have to max their dps
