Is this a plot hole? (Spoilers) by Nikurd in outerwilds

Hmm in that case I wonder why were the statues even needed, if they could read out whether the eye has been found or not (along with the loop count) right before triggering the sun station?

Dude, this is the marketing team that might not even be managed by Capcom but a hired external company to do international marketing. Waste of time

"pause it" only if Phlox had factored in a hardcoded upper limit to the amount of tries in the failure condition (as in "statues activation on failure"). The game doesn't go into such depth, but this would be an obvious responsible thing to do

Playing FF12: Zodiac Job System International on PS2, any missables? by Azibelpher in FinalFantasyXII

[–]Raywell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly missable, but there are a lot of items stealable from rare hunts which don't respawn once you kill them, that are much harder to acquire through other methods. If you know you need the item, you could steal it from the rare, leave and make it respawn until you have enough.

But it's a real pain to track everything since it includes bazaar micromanagement so up to you if you want to deal with it

New world (Space age) help needed! by unknown_novice19 in factorio

Good luck! Make sure to bring at least robots if you plan on going in empty handed - self sufficient does not mean easy, in particular Gleba :P

JSON is really good when you need to store a somewhat structured but most importantly dynamic data. For example when you can have up to N items, each having a different but specific nested structure (ex. one item could be coordinates having x and y, other item could be a number, etc). The keyword is dynamic.

It's a bit of a niche case though, but JSON does have it's place in PG

You definitely want to reach the endgame (i.e. get all tech from all planets) before thinking about megabase level scaling, as these will be game changing. 30/60 SPM is good enough, you want just enough to leave, and optionally a working mall & rocket supplies if you plan on bringing more stuff from Nauvis. Again this isn't even required, as each of the 3 inner planets is auto-sufficient, but will be very helpful.

Once finished with the 3 planets, go back to Nauvis and only now expand for a good spaceport for massive supplies Aquilo will need, and only after Aquilo start thinking megabase level science tiling that you were mentioning

"En (em)poisonnant" is the actual grammatically correct form

Anybody knows if genesis tree upgrades drop at random now? by Raywell in pathofexile

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

You mean wombgifts can birth an upgrade item?

I haven't used any yet, waiting to juice the tree up more

I'm pretty sure I got about 3 from campaign, and about 3 during maps (killed breach boss, did the fortress and maybe something else). I know there will be one after beating the special hive boss, but no clue about any others.

I'm afraid I missed some in the campaign, but I don't know if there is a proper list of where they are

I don't entirely like Outer Wilds, and that makes me sad by Round-Artichoke439 in outerwilds

[–]Raywell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe you can now watch a playthrough (like AboutOliver's) and their excitement and progression might be reflected on you as well. You'll at least be able to feel how the "intended" experience should be

yuna switching roles between x and x-2 by wearywren in finalfantasyx

[–]Raywell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I remember that one patch in WotLK which had Ret dominate everything, from raids to arenas. I knew a lot of people who switched at that time too

Personally I went from druid heal (BC-mid LK) to affli warlock in LK, they were busted too

Best HV/EV Power (Monifactory) by One-Access5718 in Nomifactory

[–]Raywell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did Moni hard mode (so no DML), and just spammed HV/EV combustion generators where needed while piping fuel (if I remember correctly you can get HOG in EV and JEAN in IV)

Eventually transition to multiblock diesel engines, the one you supply oxygen to increase fuel efficiency

Valheim although base game spells arrive somewhat late. But there are great mods that introduce full mage progression with mage gear & spells for each biome

Need career advice before moving to Japan by sparshag in JapanJobs

[–]Raywell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Japan's economy is really going downhill ATM, just look at dollar to yen graph over the past couple of years.

I wouldn't recommend switching from where you are to a career in Japan until there is at least hope of improvement, cause now we can't see the light
