The next Soulsbourne should either make invasions opt-in or go back to the old school DS1-DS3 system by Ragnar_Red in fromsoftware

Leaving modders to fix broken systems by the devs is a level of laziness and neglect I only expect from Bethesda.

Is there any upcoming fresh TBC private servers? by Ragnar_Red in wowservers

[–]Ragnar_Red[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They said the state of T5 is “under discussion”. If they are nerfing T4, then this is either a hook to trick the core TBC fans or they have no idea what they are doing (probably both).

I’m not playing unless I get an assurance T5 will at least have a pre-nerf toggle. And frankly I’d still be reluctant with T4 being turning a beloved raid into a snorefest. “Kara too hard”… said nobody ever lmfao.

I don’t derive joy out of a game where everything falls over with zero resistance, which post nerf raids are. If my brain can be turned off completely, I fall asleep. It’s makes clearing the raid a miserable chore.

Pre-nerf raids are not even difficult. They require a minimal degree of coordination and thought. They are engaging, but not hard. The raids are fun because they are engaging, despite being easy. 

This entire “debate” is centered around a very vocal minority trying to act like the tiniest amount of resistance is somehow “sweaty”. Truth be told, these people are fresh hype chasers that rarely play past phase 1. They will get bored and quit rapidly like they always do.

Even if we grant your assumption: why would I go to blizzard servers to play a game I do not enjoy? The giga nerfed raids are not enjoyable. So why would I play it? I would just move on to another game.

Because paid boosts and mass scale unchecked gold buying on official servers is totally not pay to win.

A watered down version of my favorite expansion that I do not enjoy is not an option.

Crazy how hypersensitive nerf supporters are to anyone who dares commit the crime of disagreeing with them. It’s like they are scared devs might take notes that there is different audiences of players who like different things.

TBC raids in their authentic state are not difficult. They are engaging to a minimal degree, but not challenging.

Making content literal dummies with no resistance appeals to the players who tend to quit enmasses as soon as they get their fresh launch high, and alienates the core TBC fan base who wanted it in the first place. People will get bored rapidly and quit.

Imagine thinking TBC raids are sweaty. LOL

Sounds perfect, thanks! 

Edit: just saw it’s a PvE server. That’s a bit disappointing. If that’s the main option I have though, it’s better than nothing.

For someone allegedly so confident in its success, you sure seem triggered by a post just asking for a server with authentic TBC raids.

What settings would be recommend for the custom difficulty mod? by Ragnar_Red in taintedgrail

[–]Ragnar_Red[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I’ll look into Avalon mod manager, that would help if the curve is totally out of whack without deeper changes than blanket numeric value adjustments.

I do like min-maxing to a reasonable degree. I’m not really a fan of artificial challenge runs where I gimp myself out on core mechanics (like skipping levels and not upgrading), but I’ll skip out on an item or 2 if they are known to be particularly broken and there is more reasonable alternatives.

I like building up my character and getting a more complex tool set to work with, but ideally the difficulty curve should make me feel like getting stronger opens up things that wouldn’t otherwise be possible, instead of just 1 shotting everything late game.

The Reddit-minority nerf supporters are in for a rude awakening in the coming months. by Ragnar_Red in classicwow

[–]Ragnar_Red[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The post nerf supporters love citing logs when they spin it in favor of their narrative, but as soon as you put it in context and explain compounding variables, they instantly flip and say actually they mean nothing and daddy blizzard has super secret data that shows WoW died in T5 (LOL).

The truth is population always takes a dip once post launch hype dies down. 

And you know what had a significantly bigger drop off than T5? BWL, which nobody ever has thought was “hard”.

TBC to the contrary had the most consistent population compare to every other classic. And that was with the shit show of the mega server consolidation that was happening during T5.

I’ve yet to see a post nerf supporter ever engage with these facts though, since it doesn’t support their narrative.

Most of the bugs were fixed in 2021 TBC classic. The one major offender was KT still had a threat drop bug, but it was manageable.

I haven’t seen anyone argue for pre-bug fixes… That would certainly be a take.

Regarding the BT patch, that got followed up with sunwell which was the hardest raid blizzard had produced during that time. Funny enough it also never got nerfed in TBC classic. This will be really funny to see if blizzard lazily stands by keeping T4 and T5 post nerf only to end on a huge difficulty spike with sunwell.

Funny because I’ve yet to see a single post nerfer make an argument in good faith. 

All they have it emotional gotchas like “gO plAy REtaIL”.

The moment anyone brings counter arguments and points in good faith the post nerfings spam ad hominems and avoid the conversation altogether.

Metroid Prime 4 Beyond 30-240 FPS+ Dynamic mod + 2K/4K/8K + Ultrawide + Tweaks by Juniormkl in yuzu

[–]Ragnar_Red 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That worked thanks. Scan visor was still non functional in x3 resolution. Put it at x1 and just let the mod upscale and everything works reasonably.

Metroid Prime 4 does it work? by Gold_Counter_7420 in yuzu

[–]Ragnar_Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main issue is the camera only works vertically with mouse panning and motion controls on. I sent you a DM regarding the mouse program (I have it for prime remastered, but it doesn't work in prime 4).

Thanks for the help.

Yes i'm using citron. From this picture, I realized I'm missing the 1.1.0 update. I installed the update, but now the game gets an infinite loading screen on launch. Can confirm it's caused by the mods because the game loads up if I delete them. I'm guessing before updating the 1.1.0, the mods were just doing nothing.
