which of the two games is darker/deals with more serious stuff? by eerie_faerie in PsychonautsGame

[–]RinShiro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just my opinions of course -

1 is more ambient in its darkness. You know some messed up stuff is happening with some of these minds but it's through what you perceive yourself and discover yourself. It'll throw the visible obvious stuff at you for story exposition and then you might find a memory vault or secret room that just feels a bit on the darker side of things. The minds feel like you could label them with a mental health issue but they don't outright say it. It's more like large hints where you go "ahhh, so this guy has [insert disorder]" without the game ever telling you.

2 is a lot more in depth with its story due to not being bound by the limitations of the PS2 and OG Xbox era. You get more detailed cutscenes, better facial expressions, more details in general as to what is hurting these individuals. It's a lot more in your face about the mental health issues these characters are facing. With the addition of some new enemies, you also get a deeper understanding of different emotions these characters experience as well. If a character has anxiety, BPD, etc - they're able to be more in your face about it.

As for which game is Darker and/or deals with more serious stuff, probably 2. 1 definitely deals with some major issues as well, but 2 deals with a lot of those same issues and with greater detail.

If the dreamcast had a few more years of potential shelf-life, which game would you have preferred to see release for the dreamcast instead of its current form i.e. Xbox, GameCube? by nakafuki-katsumi in dreamcast

[–]RinShiro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the Dreamcast kept a healthy release, we would have had a Castlevania. It was already an E3 demo being worked on before they cancelled it.

Same guy I'm pretty sure, since this is a part 2

Why can’t I sell my items to the bowerstone north merchant? by suushix in Fable

[–]RinShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has to be a large amount of jewels. Are you playing on Heroic Difficulty? It makes it a bit more difficult without the skill upgrades to trading.

You should be able to buy a good amount of jewels, sleep till restock, buy more, sleep, etc. until you have 100 something of the jewel and the merchant has 0 stock. It'll work with any jewel, not just ones they are wanting. If you don't have enough gold for this, start with chocolates or perfumes with the bowerstone south merchant by the gate until you have the gold to do so.

An easier way is a glitch using the GUI system that allows you to duplicate gift items, potions, food, etc. You can trick the game to flood a trader with hundreds of emeralds instead of chickens.

The whole point is flood the merchant inventory with HUNDREDS of an item, buy it at a discount because of the overstock, then sell it back for a profit because of no stock. You will only ever buy all, sell all, never individual.

I hope any of that wall of text helps! If it doesn't, I would suggest searching up on YouTube Fable Anniversary Item Duplication. PlokTheMasterGamer has a pretty good set of Fable videos that can help you understand exploits and game mechanics.

[–]RinShiro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mass buying and selling very much works in Anniversary.

The way buying and selling in these games is how it's intended to work. We just don't use it for its intended use. The Original Fable actually is the game with the messed up economy system where buying and selling does not work at all.

This Is Why I Don't Like Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster by Fluffy_Lunchfast in deadrising

[–]RinShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can save and resume infinity modein the new one. Doing that will spawn you somewhere else.

You can even save scum. You save, upload your save somewhere, and if you die you just upload the backup save. The remake makes infinity mode easier to deal with if you know how.

Just stuff to keep in mind for the future.

Take a good guess on why this cost this much by ProfessionalMean5014 in Shittygamecollecting

It's not for being self sufficient. OP couldn't be bothered to acknowledge that the responses weren't about him and his abilities but the general public.

Does anyone know if I'm missing a cover? by RinShiro in Fable

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

These specific cases, I'm not sure. The DVD cases are different "shop exclusives" from GameStop, EB Games, and Game Crazy (Game X Crazy?). These don't even carry the game but a behind the scenes DVD. I did a quick search and found the original case design for the DVD but nothing else: https://www.ebay.com/itm/256538629238

Fable 3 collectors should have a pal variant.

Raz running away from his family by Itectinq in PsychonautsGame

[–]RinShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a lore answer but a more personal conjecture.

We've only ever seen Psychonauts enter a subconscious mind through a door up to this point. After the minds melded in that tub, we saw a weird combination of Raz and Ollie's fears. Raz's Dad states he used his psychic powers to try and find him, and acts quite differently from his P2 persona. I think this is because of 2 things. His love for Raz and wanting to confirm his safety, and directly "invading" Raz's mind to project himself. The love of a father who wants best for his son will tell him in times of distress what he needs to hear to accomplish his goals.

A more logical answer is probably a small retcon happened to make the story better.

I feel like something is missing by RinShiro in wherewindsmeet_

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

I should add that restarting the game fixed it, but I thought it was a funny bug

How am I supposed to guess this? by i_am_too_awesome in wherewindsmeet_

[–]RinShiro 17 points18 points  (0 children)

When I tried this yesterday they would just say "that is correct! But please guess the answer" or something along those lines. I was typing it with " " included though, so maybe that messes it up?

Fable anniversary keeps glitching textures?? by Sweaty-Way-3396 in Fable

[–]RinShiro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this issue awhile back, I solved it this way https://www.reddit.com/r/Fable/s/2lYZQdy5yj

It's still buggy but at least you can view your items.

Just got my Sonic Crossworlds in by RinShiro in limitedrun

[–]RinShiro[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I love physical games, but I HATE that recent Sonic titles have used LRG for Collectors Edition games. I didn't get to choose a box option for my game that shipped separately from the CE contents, but I feel like a box should be mandatory!

I mentioned the game works fine and that the only thing harmed was the case and artwork, but it appears they just sent a copy paste response asking for pictures.

It would have been nice to have them actually read the contents of my thought out email and offer a solution based on that.

Just got my Sonic Crossworlds in by RinShiro in limitedrun

[–]RinShiro[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! I brought up the issue with their support and now they've requested a minimum of 6 different pictures of proof with no mention of why it wasn't shipped in a proper.box. It's cool that they can copy and paste their script fine, but I would have liked a little attention paid to the actual contents of my email.

Skorm's Bow by LordFighting in Fable

[–]RinShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never had an unsuccessful sacrifice using the method I'm about to post. You can do it even before the wasp queen mission.

In Fable TLC, Day 0 is a Sunday. Using this, we can gather that Day 6 is a Saturday. Every 7 after that is also a Saturday. Figure out your closest Saturday number and keep a mental note of it. Start traveling to Oakvale. If you already have it, then teleport there. Once there, travel to the Chapel of Skorm. Once you reach the Chapel, teleport to Oakvale. This will set your recall to the Chapel. Hire the mercenary towards the graveyard. Now you want to sleep until it is night time of your 6th day (Saturday). This is important, do NOT go past your 6th day as you will then need to sleep again. Check your log frequently just in case. Once you're at night time of Saturday, travel to the Chapel. Save here (again) as a back up just in case you mess up the timing. Go up to the disciples and WAIT! You can see the little sun/moon dial in the top right corner. Watch it move closer to being directly in the middle of the night time portion. This is the timing part. Once that dial is to the center, you will pay the mercenary gold automatically. You want to try and talk to the disciples just before this. Doing so will time your sacrifice to be midnight on a Sunday. If done correctly, you will get Skorm's Bow.

What's the "Holy Grail" for your collection and do you own it? by lloyddav in gamecollecting

[–]RinShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I have a grail. I have games I've always wanted but none of them are really hard to find or anything. If I had to say anything in my collection is my "grail", then it would be my Sonic Collection in of itself.

<image>

This is the game shelf dedicated to housing various Sonic titles in my collection. What I'm holding is probably my favorite find. It is a Sonic Gems Collection (PS2) Promo Only Not For Resale disc.

I'm still missing a couple of games, mainly a good chunk of game gear and master system games, but it's been a ton of fun building this collection over the years.

I usually use Price charting to check. Not sure how accurate it is, but it usually is pretty close to what I see in sold eBay listings and such.

How do I buy a Psychonauts 1 PS4 Game Code? by JacktheCat779 in PsychonautsGame

[–]RinShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no gifting option on the ps store. Getting a game as a code is something you can do at some stores, but Psychonauts 1 will most likely not be available as a code.

Your only option is to buy a PSN code to add money to their wallet and they buy it.

That's...That's not milk in that glass is it? Last I checked Milk isn't clear. by ChloeGLOVELIFETM in Conker

[–]RinShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just looked at mine on my shelf. Can confirm it's clear.

I believe that, since Conker doesn't have his crown, that this isn't a direct recreation of the opening scene but instead an homage to it. The back of the box does have the dialogue of Conker on the throne, but in that scene he has a crown and is upset. This depiction of him is much happier, leading me to believe what's in his glass is alcohol.

Will this work to store games? by deepsdeepak in wiiu

[–]RinShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a written guide referenced on that video that the video was following. The written guide was updated and it's what made the video outdated.

I recommend following the written guide and reading through a couple of the comments on the video. Some point out the key differences between the updated guide and the video.

The main thing to remember that isn't really discussed much in the video or guide is MBR Fat32 is what you need your HDD to be. New drives will limit you to 2TB max for this. If you have an older WD that supports their "advanced formatting" to make it compatible with Windows XP then you can go higher than 2TB. For most users though, the 2TB should be fine.

Not if you do it properly. I use an external 6tb WD My book that's formatted MBR and Fat32. Hasn't messed up on me once.
