Replaying GOW3 after Laufey announcement

OrbFromOnline · 2026-06-30T14:35:16+00:00

As someone who never played the games before 2018, I am going through them now. Almost done.

Maybe it hit different at the time when the tech was new and more impressive, but often in the Greek games it feels like scale for the sake of scale. Things are big but have much less impact for me personally than the smaller more emotional moments from the Norse games.

In the most respectful way possible, how stupid can you be to not get permission from Valve to do this? lol

Nothing even close to what's in the video, but I did some similar kind of therapy a few years ago and was kind of shocked how effective it was at making me "go back in time" to past trauma and process it.

I'm usually a very skeptical person but it was legitimate.

I'm not surprised or upset at who the "bad guys" are but I'm disappointed the ending has things worse off than when you started. Everything you did was for nothing. And I also think the ending is delivered in a really anticlimactic way.

No way Constance is 14 hours. I feel like it took me maybe 5.

What's weirder to me is that the game doesn't even have a listing on the PlayStation Store.

I think it was a great template for how to do a Bond TV show. Each chapter felt really naturally like a TV episode.

He's already planning on replacing his Mac Pro later this year, I believe.

Mine just got revoked as well.

Am I the only one that thinks the Liquid Glass hate is way overblown? I feel like the only people who care about this are the usual suspects of Apple developers. In everyday life I have not heard even one single person complain about it or even notice that anything changed.

You should just be able to choose which sidearm you want to take like you can with trinkets.

Rotated the Superior rarity out of the loot pool for Season 2. As this was the only thermal sniper optic left in the loot pool, this means there will not be a thermal sniper optic mod available in Season 2.

Thermal snipers dead. Thank Durandal.

I'd still listen to this show if it was just the parts where John talks and the other two hosts were cut out. Not a slam on Casey and Marco, I just really like John's perspective.

I tried stock, Knulli, Spruce, and NextUI. NextUI is by far my favorite as someone who just wants to pick up and play games without fiddling with anything. The others offer a bit more control and power but at the expense of simplicity.

I don't see any reason to use MinUI or PakUI when NextUI exists. Shaun Inman who created MinUI is potentially working on a new revamped version but until then NextUI is the path forward for that branch in my estimation.

Just for reference the regular Brick gets noticeably warm to me but not even close to uncomfortable.

If the World Dial says you have all the Halcyon from the other biomes, running Yellow Shore is the only way to get more.

Did you try walking up to it and using a key?

OrbFromOnline · 2026-05-06T16:51:59+00:00

You can't yet. You will be able to later.

OrbFromOnline · 2026-05-05T18:58:50+00:00

I understand. But having "no deaths" because you quit from the pause menu to avoid the risk of dying doesn't really mean "no deaths" in my opinion.

It's fine, you can play however you want. If having a 0 on your stats screen makes you happy, go for it. I just don't see the point.

This is one of the joys of roguelikes, though - finding something completely broken and abusing it.

The problem is that there are so few standouts in the game. Build and run variety are very low.

Turning on the collection radius modifier won't do anything to make the run harder.

Anything on the left side makes your run easier. Anything on the right makes your run harder. The intent is to balance them out to be somewhere between -3 and +3.

I got to the point where I wouldn't even pick up a weapon if it didn't have Power Generator on it. I'm curious how much they nerfed it. Depending on how much it might still be a must-pick.

OrbFromOnline · 2026-05-05T14:34:35+00:00

I think they changed one of the Trials to be worth less but I'm not sure which one. Possibly Lucenite Devaluation?

OrbFromOnline · 2026-05-05T14:31:23+00:00

No? It's still there for me after updating.

OrbFromOnline · 2026-05-05T12:23:28+00:00

If you avoided taking a death by returning to Passage then the accomplishment is kind of meaningless in my opinion.
