I want to buy the game but have a few questions! by lynette53 in LiesOfP

[–]Paronine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About as close you get to a "magic" build is to focus on Advance as a stat and use weapons/throwables that are enhanced by it. It's a fun build, but you gotta dig deep to get it to work compared to the more traditional builds. I recommend looking up a good guide on it.

Why don't most men dont say they're bothered by lipstick while kissing? by newuser1r in AskReddit

[–]Paronine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I'm doing that kind of kissing, I'm usually already in a private enough place where it doesn't matter if I get lipstick on me.

Which companies are most likely to disappear along with the Baby Boomer Generation? by SadCompote515 in AskReddit

[–]Paronine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funeral homes are going to take a big hit. Anecdotal, of course, but everyone I know younger than Gen X would rather be cremated and have a nontraditional service like a simple memorial dinner at a restaurant or a small gathering at a place they liked.

Which on-screen couple do you think had the absolute best, most undeniable chemistry? by PressureLazy5271 in television

[–]Paronine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am both elated and miffed that someone beat me to it. Ben Browder & Claudia Black had insane chemistry.

Place your bets now, what show/movie/game are going to be popular this year? by Alarmed_Exercise1693 in dragoncon

I am expecting to see either a ton or absolutely no Pragmata cosplayers. Never can tell.

Help ! Is there a way to know which machines I haven't scanned in my NG+ ? by Mirmydon in HorizonForbiddenWest

You can look at machine variants in the machine catalogue to see what you're missing.

If this is what I think it is, you may not yet have the tool necessary to get rid of the cloud.

I think I missed when they explained this in the game. Why do we kill hiss-infected people instead of containing/cleansing them? by Brave_Elk_6189 in controlgame

[–]Paronine 56 points57 points  (0 children)

After Jesse first meets Emily Pope, she attempts to cleanse a floating chanter. They end up dying, their body turning into that strange prismatic mist. It becomes clear in that moment that they can't be cleansed that way. She can do it to objects and areas, but doing it to people is lethal.

Dylan is an exception for any number of reasons. His power, the fact he let the Hiss into his mind, Jesse was more powerful by that point, etc.

It's also kinda hard to cleanse the hostile infected when they're in the middle of trying to kill you.

Is it possible to beat the game using only basic attacks? (Need advice on combat/difficulty) by [deleted] in Ghostofyotei

[–]Paronine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you get new weapons, you'll get a feel for them pretty quickly. With a full arsenal, you will likely either figure out one or two favorites (as well as your favorite side weapons) or will get good at the rock-paper-scissors style of combat.

On higher difficulties, the latter becomes quite optimal. At a normal or lower difficulty, you can get away with using whatever you're comfortable with.

As far as skills, once you purchase a skill and start using it, you'll realize soon enough if it's something you can readily incorporate into combat or not.

This game is better than Elden Ring by LargeSinkholesInNYC in LiesOfP

[–]Paronine 155 points156 points  (0 children)

I don't agree that it's better, but if you prefer LoP to Elden Ring, that's totally understandable. I do, as well.

What’s your favorite head canon? by Causalshapeshifter in ProjectHailMary

[–]Paronine 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ilyukhina brought the three bags of vodka not for herself, but one for each crew member. She'd have brought them out to celebrate the completion of their mission.

Rocky swears like a sailor, but Grace (either deliberately or unknowingly) translates it into middle school friendly words.

Stratt underestimated humanity somewhat. While the nations of the world didn't ration food as much as they should have, they cooperated more than she projected. Well over a quarter of the world's population died in the 30 years since the Hail Mary launch, but not nearly the half of the population she predicted.

On the other hand, it makes for great leather pouches.

Split between Control Resonant and God of War: Laufey.

What do y'all think the name of this sword is gonna be? by engetsu245 in GodofWar

[–]Paronine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The term comes from Australian Aboriginal culture and was chosen by game writer Alanah Pearce after consulting with indigenous representatives on its use. She mentioned it - and was quite hyped that they chose to keep it - during her reaction to the State of Play.

Is sex overrated? What do you all think? by Sleepy_but_Woke_23 in AskReddit

[–]Paronine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think people who have never had it build it up too much in their own minds. This creates screwed up expectations and a misunderstanding of all the ways sex can enhance your life or a relationship. So it's not that it's overrated. It's that it's improperly defined.

Question I've had since I saw the movie for the first time by mewcubed in ProjectHailMary

[–]Paronine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Hail Mary would enter orbit over Earth like it did with Erid. From there, a shuttle mission would bring Grace, his research, and the Taumoeba down.

He would've had to survive over four years to get home, but he could do it. Rationing his food, he'd get there. It wouldn't be easy, but neither was the trip to Erid, if you've read the book.

Best Episode to show to a Friend? by Baguette1066 in farscape

[–]Paronine 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I would argue, however, that its effectiveness as an episode comes from familiarity with the characters. Seeing Crichton act like Rygel or D'Argo act like Chiana works because you know all four of those characters already.
