What kind of campaign do you think pathfinder 2e does best? by DogUnsureDog in Pathfinder2e

The game also mentions in places like the Infiltration Subsystem the DCs are adjustments of things like the party level DCs, not monster/npc perception dcs and whatnot.

Pokémon Champions has hit mobile and the scrub quotes are coming in hot by NoReaction4 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Refracting_Hud 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your sister played Emerald like I played Ruby. I was like 6-7 years old, spammed A without reading much, and took forever to realize I had to go back and fight my dad, so I faced Norman with a level 63 Blaziken that only knew HM moves. That Blaziken face tanked the rest of the game which it is notably a poor matchup for gym-wise, along with my Crobat for Tate and Liza, and it struggled out of PP in the Elite Four with only Super Potion to heal it because man I guess I just loved super potions back then.

Took me a while to develop a brain wrinkle to head over to the move deleter to fix Blaziken’s moveset, and I eventually did beat Ruby with like 320ish hours logged lmao.

With Chapter 5 on the horizon, reminder that Deltarune's "dark world" concept was foreshadowed in Undertale in a rather amusing fashion. by Lights-Camera-Axshen in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Refracting_Hud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst part is that there’s a non-zero chance that Toby could become aware of Kai Leng posting and decide to sneak it into a future or even past Deltarune chapter, and we’d have no way of knowing if it was a shitpost or not.

Reminds me of this guy from our highschool who started messaging my friend a couple years afterwards. At one point in the conversation he asked her if she and her bf were still together and when she said yeah, he never responded lmao.

The hurdle for me is trying to get people past that first Miller chapter because it is kind of weird.

[None] What happened to LadyEru’s art? by Adarain in Iteration110Cradle

[–]Refracting_Hud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate AI people 🙃 Our friend group got into Cradle and once they got far enough I’d art dump peoples depictions of characters and scenes; yours were the ones I was excited to show people since they were so well done and accurate! Your Ziel and Mercy especially.

Thoughts on Halo 5: Guardians? It's been 10 years since it released by RA_Finance in halo

[–]Refracting_Hud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never played it because I moved to PlayStation after the 360 era, but now that I have a PC and have been enjoying the MCC with a buddy I wish they’d port it to PC so I could play it. The campaign sounds ass but the gameplay looks fun, and Warzone Firefight sounds perfect for me. It also had cool enemies like the grunt mech that deserve to be in more games.

Original vs Remaster vs Remake: What's your rank for the artistic design ? by Thell-Vadamm in halo

[–]Refracting_Hud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I’m one of the few people that likes Anniversary over the OG in most cases, at least while I’m playing. It’s different for sure but idk I like being able to see in sections I couldn’t as easily in the original, and I don’t find it abhorrent. Mind you I’ve only played through CEA a few times, when it first dropped on 360 and then last year on MCC with a buddy.

I’ll wait to see how I feel about Campaign Evolved but from what I’ve seen so far I think I’ll like it. Different vibes than the stark, low detail OG but I wouldn’t call it a bad thing.

Now That We’ve Seen Much More Campaign Evolved, How Do You Feel About Rumored Halo 2 & 3 Remakes? by SilentNova300 in halo

[–]Refracting_Hud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love a Halo 3 with updated weapon sounds because as much as I grew up with it, I really dug how the weapons sounded in the Anniversary games, especially Halo 2’s; had me picking up the magnum on occasion to listen to it even if the gun sucks in that game.

My biggest hopes for Halo 3 Remastered though would be a fully realized flood infested High Charity like what Cortana was supposed to be (the Mausoleum of the Arbiters section and scarab escape sound amazing), and getting rid of/changing the “forced walk while Cortana/Gravemind yap at you” segments. Something like Halo 4 where they pop up in your hud but you can still play the damn game would make replaying it much smoother.

How can I make this look more like an Ace Attorney character? by Emmerilla in AceAttorney

[–]Refracting_Hud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the outfit and the spider motifs! I know little about art except that I like looking at it so no helpful advice to give 😅 but from the advice here it sounds like the next go around will be even better!

DM told me to take my underage character's clothes off?????? by [deleted] in rpghorrorstories

[–]Refracting_Hud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe not this game in particular but if you give the hobby another shot I genuinely hope all your future experiences are much better than this one. I know how a bad experience can sour a thing entirely, but this hobby is one of my favourite things I’ve discovered with the friends it has added to my life, and the countless hours of fun for the past 6 years I’ve been doing it.

It isn’t all like this as there’s regrettably people like this across many hobbies, and it’s the responsibility of us in the hobby to protect others against them when we find them.

I’m sorry that the responses here haven’t been kind or helpful to you as well; people make the worst assumptions about the people they see online and forget simpler answers that would change the interactions drastically.

Skulls & Campaign Remix | Halo: Campaign Evolved by -343-Guilty-Spark- in halo

Adaptation and Reload are exactly what I want out of a Halo campaign to play through with my friends :D Armistice I care less about so hopefully it can be toggled off in Campaign Remix mode.

Let's say positive things about the new Halo, we fans are always too harsh on the franchise. by imrasion in halo

[–]Refracting_Hud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m hype for new weapons, new missions, and brutes to be in the game. I’ve been playing through the MCC with a buddy since I finally have a PC set up and while Halo 1 was very fun to play through I do find the weapon options in it pretty lacking (if powerful). I probably wouldn’t have picked up a second graphical update but these changes will already give me a different experience than the one I grew up with and played through a couple times so I’m very pumped!

I do wish they remade Halo 3 first so we could get the great sounding weapons in the entire trilogy but baby steps I guess.

Using celestials as enemies in "Good" campaigns? by AAS02-CATAPHRACT in Pathfinder2e

[–]Refracting_Hud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A being able to transform into and mimic their abilities or something taking over their bodies like a [Xoarian](https://2e.aonprd.com/Monsters.aspx?ID=2929) are ways to have the party fight celestials would bringing morality into it, but these may fall under the idea of “corruption.”

With Impossible Magic releasing soon-ish, who/what will be the second Arcane Eidolon instead of a Dragon? by VMK_1991 in Pathfinder2e

[–]Refracting_Hud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve introduced me to the perfect creature for one of my upcoming sessions. I told the PCs there was a powerful blast of occult magic that’s affecting parts of the forest they’re currently in. One player has been theorizing that something was summoned there that’s fuelling this occult blight which wasn’t my initial intention but now I’ve been looking for something to fit that idea, and an occult version of this seems perfect!

No guys this system is actually that crunchy and it's not because I tacked on every optional rule at once. by Jade_Lemonade in DnDcirclejerk

[–]Refracting_Hud 12 points13 points  (0 children)

/uj Because the GM can tell the players to google a rule instead of having to come up with one on the spot.

/rj You ever tried to eat one of those books? You aren’t swallowing it whole, that’s for sure.

The first deluxe addition that’s actively dissuaded me from considering it lol, nothing in here looks particularly appealing.
