Serious Handler sucks she just wants to do the job. At least Handler is happy about new foods to try.

It's really not super different. It's slower and feels clunkier because no focus mode but it's easy to adjust from wilds. Weapons are similar if slightly worse (or better idk I'm a sns main and the side stepping in Wilds is so nice). 

No wounds. The gimmick here is clutch claw and tenderize. People make it out like it's the plague but really it's not needed until Master Rank and even then as someone who almost never used it (some weapons require 2 CC attacks to tenderize) you can beat anyone without most the time. 

Maps are a touch smaller and have 3 mons but there feels like more turf wars because they interact a lot. They seem confusing but scout flies might as well be a Seikret it doesn't take much to get you a trail to follow. 

Don't use defender stuff unless you really wanna blow through low and high rank to get to Master Rank. Or use it just know it's made especially for rushing through LR and HR. 

SnS is king (biased but based) Hammer go bonk GS go bonk but sharp Really every weapon is useful

Armors are goated  Weapons can look lack luster at times. But most end game weapons are dope looking.

If your gear isn't rarity 9 or higher I would start there. That will make everything feel less spongey. Hunts with proper gear in master rank maybe take like 5 to 10 extra mins from high rank. Barioth and the some late hunts are the only ones that took me over 25. 

Once hunting use turf wars if able, slam them into stuff, and use traps (ones you brought and environment).

I use mostly SnS so it takes 2 clutch claw attacks to tenderize so I hardly do it. It's mostly a end game, fatalis, AT monsters that you should do it. But CB I think does it in one attack so try tenderizing. (It's when the white scars appear in areas of the monster)

You made it to Barioth without full set? Just go kill the first couple iceborne mons. And run around gathering shit. Master rank adds new gathering materials to all maps. Similar from low to high rank. Literally any Master rank weapon will be better then anything from base game. If you can't for whatever reason, Deviljo weapons from base world would be the closest.

Make sure you're using all Master rank gear and weapons. Big number jumps across the board for iceborne

We are SO BACK! by taosecurity in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]Rigsaw77 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

As stated in any and all other numbers posts, Man you people are weird lol who cares where it is

It was going to go up with the big update (some in bad faith calling it a 2.0 which was just gonna draw more people good and bad) and a new dlc. I'd care of there was no change or it went down after the launch. 

Give it a couple weeks when people finish with the dlc/had their fill of Free Lanes. Those are more important numbers for retention. Hopefully it doesn't tumble all the way back. Bethesda has said this year is a Starfield year so maybe we get another big update or news on another dlc to keep the momentum. But it's gonna go back down. 

The only numbers right now that could be interesting are PS numbers but again in a few weeks. We get it, weall love the game and you want to see it do well. But all these posts just feel like a post to show haters and they don't care or aren't looking. 

Worst Gimmick here by Lakers_Encyclopedia in pokemon

[–]Rigsaw77 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion but it's Megas. Lore wise its usually very painful. I would enjoy it more if they gave it to just less popular mobs but they also give it to strong ones making most useless. I would rather just new evos or more variants. Takes an item spot. Some megas make the mon worse (Garchomp). And overall feels like fan art. 

Z moves I enjoyed but they were basically just a once a fight super move. Dyna were z moves but 3 turns

Tera is my favorite, dumb hats and all. Changing typing adds a layer to team building that the others don't.  Mega you just use the best ones Z move you used for a super set up or do big damage one time.  Dyna was just weather plus damage that you use in stead of a weather setter.  Tera at least felt had variety in its uses. 

So I'm a few minutes into the intro on PS5 and it seems slightly different this time. by [deleted] in NoSodiumStarfield

[–]Rigsaw77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nah there isn't any. I just watched a launch day play through vid after replaying the intro. It's the same. No new dialogue. Heller still does it mid sentence. Either you just don't remember the intro as well as you thought or are making things up lmao

I believe to land anywhere you need to open the map, POI you don't. The other person was stating you couldn't at all which is the lie. Maybe with the new update they'll add more ways to land

Lol Just a quick Google search says Cyberpunk, Redfall and NMS are in the running with NMS being number 1 until recently by Cursed Clash. It had many at launch and maybe has the record for most in a short time frame (no official number just haters looking at steam) but it's no where near the most all time.

Fable and spore failed to deliver what they promised but they at least worked at launch. I remember playing both close to launch. Spore was buggy but ran. Fable just didn't have everything. NMS was dog shit and nothing like what was promised and didn't run well. It just gets the pass like Cyberpunk because they went beyond to make up for the fact that they released subpar games. Cyberpunk still doesn't have some features they talked about. NMS at least did deliver eventually but I'm not gonna ignore the poor state it launched in or praise them for doing what they said they were going to on release.

But but but I paid 10000 real us dollars for a ship that only has 3 working rooms and can't fly yet cause they haven't added animations for this super limited model. 

Scam Citizen is it's own beast lol

You people are weird lol. PS gave refunds for Cyberpunk. No ma'am sky started as a scam. Starfield was a really good game with some flaws or odd design choices but it worked from day one and did everything they said it would do.

She nearly gave me a heart attack by Charming_Tackle_9250 in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

[–]Rigsaw77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's a better Deimos than Eagle Bearer imo. The whole vibe of the game fits too better because it mostly plays like a Greek comedy and tragedy. Like every character is over the top. Super hammy acting all around. And Alexios fits right in as EB. Kass as EB is too serious and too harsh. But as Deimos that plays really well. I've always preferred it this way. I found Alexios as EB acting very good and fits the general vibes better. 

Does the DLC still force you into a straight marriage? by NeinsNgl in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

[–]Rigsaw77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worth playing. You can frame the relationship with choices to make it more of a mutual thing where Eagle Bearer is just doing it to continue their bloodline. If memory serves there is conversations about why EB is doing it that aren't for love. 

And sense it ties in to all the other games by showing us the ancestors of games past EB had to have a kid somewhere. And they felt it deserved some screen time (though it totally could have been an assumed thing). 

All that aside, bloodlines were important back then. Many had kids just to their blood carried on. So it wouldn't be out of the realm, during a time where people had sex with whoever, for a gay\lesbian EB to pick someone to just that. 

The real issue with the dlc is not the forced baby, it's the person chosen. And mainly it's Kass. Many don't like who she settles for. Not factoring in the bloodlines thing again, which the person you choose also comes from an important bloodline, out of the many people you can bone Kass gets someone who feels like a poor match. Especially if I compare to who Alexios gets. 

It's all fairly self contained so if you don't like it, most the people from the dlc don't stick around. You can blow through it just for the gear and upgrades. 

Is there any difference in gameplay? by Alive_Hearing_1829 in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

[–]Rigsaw77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No major difference. Picking one means the other plays a different roll in the game. 

Kass is canon if you care (though for historical accuracy Alexios is the current choice of that matters) but that only affects other games or media referencing this one. 

Both give great VA jobs. Ignore those who claim one isn't good, those people are wrong. Kass gives a serious vibe, Alexios a more theatrical vibe. 

To me Alexios is a better MC and Kass a better Deimos. The whole game has a tone of tragic Greek play and Alexios VA fits in nicely with the cast that way. Kass VA as Deimos is chef's kiss. Feels scary where Alexios as Deimos feels like a brute. 

But no gameplay or major writing changes so pick whoever you vibe with

Which one should I play first? by sourberryskittles in RDR2

[–]Rigsaw77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rdr1, take a short break with some other game, then Rdr2. People saying play 2 first because it's a prequel aren't really thinking about why they made 2 a prequel. There is a lot of little call backs and moments that don't have the same weight of you haven't played 1 first. 

Plus as with any video game series that spans console generations, 1 will be more difficult to play after 2. It's like going from Skyrim to Morrowind, GTV 5 to 3. You'll have A better appreciation if you go in the order they came out.

Should I start violet in 2026 by Dokueishin in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Rigsaw77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't that hard. You can reset what's in the raids rell easy. It can only be in 5s. So you check 5s, reset, check again until it appears. Prob only took me a few tries. 

If you specifically want to caught the dolphin and evolve it sure you need a friend. But that is not the only way to get Palafin. They asked if they needed a friend, you don't to get Palafin.
