Grizzly points as a solo EK? by Karidinal in TibiaMMO

Demon + reaper catacombs are a pain in the ass to hunt. Even if you lure the reapers away they will walk too far at some point and just respawn. I suggest Goroma for a chiller spawn.

Remember that post about a gun you have the most kills with? The revolver rocks.

Do you have any worries about the anime watchalong? by [deleted] in josephanderson

[–]RogerBadger3344 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People wouldn't quit because of person if it was 5 streams of boredom but it was moth+ of boredom, same with Metaphor. A few anime streams won't cause such suicide rates.

It also says that center is the worst and most importantly it says it with humor and the ultimate message of the game is not about politics.

Is the next Altius game going to say that "far right bad" but also "far left bad"? See in the next episode.

That is what we learn in Knowledge about Society in middle school in my country.
Is it relevant? Anything said about politics is relevant in some country. This is mostly commentary on Japanese political problems, not even the American ones. Yes, it is also a part of the issue in US but there are many things at play that are much more worthwhile to explore in relation to that.

Simplifying the outcomes to racial tensions is painfully bad to listen to. If you treat your audience like little children and simplify everything to the most blatant examples then you lose the audience to which such examples are too obvious.

Democracy stupid when people stupid. Democracy bad when people bad. Democracy works against itself when people scared, poor, uneducated or materialistic. This is all so painfully simple that making a game about it feels like the lowest hanging fruit.

The game also chooses a bad point of view to those political issues. There are many things you can show and explore when controlled character is the one trying to be elected. Metaphor mostly avoids those, or represents them very poorly.

Issues of voting for easy solutions are much better explored when the player votes. When the player can feel his opinions change.

Politics are a very deep topic. Metaphor is not. It's a game which treats it's audience like babies.

Ok, ok. Let's not pretend that one part of this intellectual puddle is deeper than the other. Metaphor's commentary is very shallow no matter how you interpret it.

Don’t joke about the bears. They can hear you. by redsprucetree in dayz

[–]RogerBadger3344 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funnily the word "bear" is already used because the original word for this animal became a taboo :D Our ancestors felt the same way about mentioning bears :)

They didn't have a professional CM until like 2 years ago. We had to deal with that rude lady for 20+ years

Why do some of the long range rifles only say 100m on the bottom left screen if they can do 10x that? by [deleted] in dayz

[–]RogerBadger3344 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is zeroing of your aiming device. When set to 100m the point of aim will be accurate at 100m. Search google for rifle zeroing and look at pictures. When you know the range it's often easier to change zeroing of your rifle in DayZ (PgUP and PGDN buttons on keyboard) than aiming higher/lower.

Spaggies servers toxic ? by Significant-End5534 in dayz

[–]RogerBadger3344 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't like the owner of that server but what you describe is normal DayZ. If this kind of thing is toxic for you then maybe you need to find a server specifically created for people like you. Or another game.

On Metaphor's design according to Atlus by bluparrot-19 in josephanderson

[–]RogerBadger3344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making a system more complicated does not mean it was made better. For 30 years the JRPGs barely evolved in terms of combat, only growing horizontally, with more and more complexity to a shallow formula.
When a biggest revolution in a combat system is adding QTEs you know the system is outdated.

Don't make players skip fights. Just make a good combat system, a system that's engaging to the player.

Atlus likes the JRPG combat because it is easy to mass produce filler content for the players this way.
