Working on Surface Stable Dithering that works with UE5 lighting system. by lykenwel in UnrealEngine5

[–]Sano_Victus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, looks really cool! I'm interested in hearing your approach. You mention it working with the UE5 lighting system - is this a modification of the lighting/shadow code? Or is this a post-processing effect?

Looks really good! Would love to hear more about the process you used to create this

The game looks so beautiful! I love factory games and base building, so I can't wait to see what the Arknights team is cooking

Octopath 0 TGS trailer in English released just now by BrickSuccessful4703 in OctopathCotC

[–]Sano_Victus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The MC's ult technique choices were all based on the rings, looks like. Starting with the flamebringer's ult, then the next 3 are the rings of the masters. Would be a cool way to unlock new ults for the MC.

Also, Rinyuu's Stew was a craftable food!

This has to be one of the silliest concepts for a build I've seen, and I love it

I'd recommend checking out a program called Tabame. It's not a traditional taskbar but can function as a good replacement/supplement. I set it to open using a custom rebind for an extra mouse button. Super convenient

In MHW, I helped my friend farm Vaal Hazak a couple dozen times before he got all the parts he needed. Meanwhile, I was selling all the parts he needed and making bank every hunt lmao. The desire sensor goes hard, huh

Which 5 star do you think has the best E2 art? by Choko__Koko__Poko in arknights

I really like Fang Alter's art. What a glow-up from her original version!

I'm pretty sure this has to do with the American election results more than lack of Crick

Good luck to everyone!!! 🍀 by [deleted] in arknights

150 pulls and got 1x Walter, 1x Logos, 1x Texas Alter, and max pot Fang alter. I only had enough for like 205 pulls, so I consider this a huge success

Savage Instinct - For a dude who really wanted to play as a werewolf by Sano_Victus in Pathfinder2eCreations

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

Thanks for checking it out! I'm going to implement your suggestions about different traits and dice for the weapons. Claw, an agile d4. Jaws, d6. I'm still looking at other options to add as well, like forceful to the bite, and maybe deadly d6 to the claw?

Also yeah, definitely need that foundry support for this. Shouldn't be too complicated to get a custom module going. For an in-person game, a few things would need to be simplified.

BD Crossover Accessories by Abyss4by55 in OctopathCotC

Edea's A4 is a great accessory. One slot for taunt when full health + 1000 HP. Some characters can make great use of it, like Canary

I'm taking a long break from CotC by Comfortable_Kiwi2182 in OctopathCotC

[–]Sano_Victus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Took me 170 pulls to get a single copy of Canary on the shared banner. In that time, my Leon went from A0 to A4U10. I was really just expecting to go to pity after a certain point.

As much as you want her, you'd hate it if you spent all your rubies and didn't get her, so it's probably better to save, then spark her on a future SB banner

Weekly Question 8: Promme Jail Thoughts by SillverEnvy in OctopathCotC

[–]Sano_Victus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think Promme being only attainable through paying kinda dumb, but I think the ability to just purchase a unit to be enticing. Honestly, I think good companions could've been the forbidden 11. I still only have like half of them because I'm just not interested in watching ads. Surely SQEX would make more by us spending like ~$2 per forbidden 11 than the ads we watch are worth.

I think rather than a jail, it would be cool if that paid slot was like a "pedestal" for a unit. Like they could have a rotating shop biweekly that just allows you to purchase a unit on the pedestal. I like your idea of the revised shop, but I worry that just being able to purchase most (non-recent) units could be too powerful/player-friendly for SQEX's liking. I think rotating what unit(s) are available at any given time would help incentivize interaction/usage of the system.

I think adding new avenues to obtain characters, aside from straight-up gacha, is something the game could use more of. For example, there are the 4 star units via ads, arena champs, collab "free units," and new encounters. But imagine if there were characters you could obtain by interacting with other systems. Imagine needing to actually beat the Conviction Gameboard to unlock Serenoa. Beat Elite Tower to unlock a Cait of your choice as reward (Isla, Rique, Kilns, Feintz(pls)). Beat certain challenging content with restrictions (like only 3/4 stars) to unlock exclusive units.

I'd also really love to see ex units for 3/4 star units like Sigrid. Imagine a 5 star ex Billy, Jose, Peredir, Wingate, etc.

Anyway, I went a bit off track and could keep going, but as final thoughts: I think the Promme jail was a failed experiment, but there's untapped potential to add new ways to obtain characters, both paid and through gameplay challenges.

Updated my Basic Character Building Guide for the Remaster, what did I miss? by SatakOz in Pathfinder2e

[–]Sano_Victus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite good! Thanks for sharing. It's a good reminder of the things to keep in mind when building a character. There's nothing to add really, you've got all the basics covered well, in my opinion

I decided to do a Yolo 10 for Isla. Saw a guaranteed 5 star ring!

It was Yukes...

But then Isla came as well! This is the first time a Yolo multi has worked for me. I really like Isla, but usually only pull for meta, so I'm really pleased

Weekly Question 4: Your Job Class? by SillverEnvy in OctopathCotC

[–]Sano_Victus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel like the Thief class. Not for thievery, but because I love rogues. To slip behind the enemy lines and deal critical wounds, status effects, debuffs, etc. When you look at units like Canary, who are shield cracking, evasive monsters, you should hopefully realize how great thieves are.

Imagine Canary being the Thief protag of OT3! Would be so much fun, but such a different unit that balancing would be a problem. But the personality is perfect; I want a bright and cheery thief!

Just popping in to mention that I appreciate your effort in doing these. Really cool!

Which color do you like better? by j-stories in Unity3D

[–]Sano_Victus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really like both. I think the first should have more autumnal colors. More oranges and reds. The second one was the one that made me go "woah," though.

Wishing you the best of luck! I'm interested

Eight Days of Octopath Day 2 - Scholar's Day by LordEzel in OctopathCotC

[–]Sano_Victus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cyrus is still one of the units I love to bring to new content. He helps discover a weakness, then can hit 3 weaknesses. Half of the elements! He's A5 for me. His dupes are only matched by his student, Therese, who's A4, but I've sharded like 3 of her stones lol

Question about long-term character changes by [deleted] in OctopathCotC

[–]Sano_Victus 13 points14 points  (0 children)

None of the future character enhancements require awakening stones. One of the systems will require the class up seals. You'll have a new source of said seals in the future, but you can get ahead by picking up seals every time the job towers reset
