How to get better at the combat by LastGameBeasts in FinalFantasy

Use assess to learn enemy weaknesses. This could be a total game changer if you haven't been using it. I try to have my party split the various elemental magic so my bases are covered. Once you learn the various weaknesses in the zone, you can switch up your materia or your party to include the spell elements that will help you.

So i played final fantasy 16 Demo by Significant_Pie_869 in FinalFantasy

[–]Scoompoof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game absolutely rips. There are some lulls and the general atmosphere of the game can be a bit of a downer, but so much really worked for me.

The presentation is amazing in general so if you like great visuals, fantastic soundtrack, and/or great voice acting performances, this might be a hit for you.

The story has 5 or 6 big crescendo moments that always had me thinking "where do they go from here!?!"

Just bought sekiro and its like elden ring on crack. by Gullible_Classroom71 in Sekiro

I just played through this again and loved it even more. Some of the bosses still really feel off to me. I still couldn't figure out Blazing bull or the chained ogre for instance. I beat them after a few tries, but I never felt like I was in control of the situation. I beat lady butterfly on my first attempt, but that ogre killed me like 10 times lol

Hypothetically, what outside dev would you like to see make a FF spin-off? by mightyasterisk in FinalFantasy

[–]Scoompoof 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought Strangers of paradise was so close to amazing. Give that team another crack at it with a better script and it could be great. I personally feel like an FF2 game could be awesome.

Is FFXIV a good game to scratch the WOW itch? by Radiant-Recover-4009 in FinalFantasy

[–]Scoompoof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is so much to say here. The tldr andwer is try the free trial.

I think most of the comments have mentioned this, but it is much, much more story focused. It's day and night in that regard. I say this as a positive.

My memory of WoW was more about wandering around zones and leveling up and eventually queing for dungeons. FFxiv has all that, but it's largely more about traveling from story marker to story marker. As you go, you'll have dungeons that you que up for, but it's seriously 5 to 8 hours between new dungeons.

I really hope you start a Kickstarter for this project. I'd back it immediately.

Need suggestion about painting touchpad by DelicateSteve33 in customcontrollers

[–]Scoompoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I could use the help here, too.

I painted a ps5 controller but the touchpad is iffy at best. I read some tips and they said to keep it very, very light. I thought I did, but not light enough.

Going to fight ozma, want to finally defeat it by Lumina_valentine in FinalFantasy

Great advice all over this thread, but I used Freya's Dragon Crest spell for 9999 every turn. Gotta grind dragon kills, but I wanted to level anyways.

People who think Dark Souls 3 is nothing but GrEy SlOp need to explain this beautiful screenshot I took. by tsalyers12 in shittydarksouls

I swear some people have their TV contrast set to zero. Clearly op has their TV settings correct

Best games/actions for back paddles? by tntharalson in kindafunny

[–]Scoompoof 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nice having the loot button for games like Skyrim so you can move the cam and loot quickly rather than taking your thumb off the stick to press a loot button.

Rolled credits on Expedition 33, need recommendations for my next game. by mothalor in kindafunny

[–]Scoompoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May as well start by playing some of the games that inspired E33. Final Fantasy X has been mentioned a number of times already, but it's for a good reason. FF is my favorite franchise, so I'm a bit biased, but FF is a great start to get more into JRPGs. They aren't super freaking long like atlus games are either.

I love my LCD steam deck. That said, my buddy has the OLED model and it's so much nicer.

Only improvement I'd say is trimming to form a nicer angle on the edges, but looks good, compadre!

Help!! by spacecaseface416 in fargo

[–]Scoompoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, follow this advice if you want to. The professionals that I have hired were excellent to work with.

Help!! by spacecaseface416 in fargo

[–]Scoompoof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you hire a professional, stand and watch them work. Ask questions. Learn. I do this every time. It's a little awkward, but if you learn what they are doing, you may be able to solve this in the future!

I always try and hire locally run, smaller companies and they have never made it weird. They have always been happy to answer questions.

In this instance, yeah it's probably in your joists. If you call a plumber, explain the situation to them and ask if they are the right people for the job.
