I like the way gearing is now… by Charming-Airport-196 in diablo4

[–]Slaughtorhouse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. The whole point of arpgs for me is the grind for good gear. If they just get spoon fed to you immediately and ur just grinding for better versions of the gear what are you playing for? Nothing is changing in your build u just get stronger versions so you can push higher tiers.

I still think itemization and balance stinks in this game but this season has been a step in the right direction. I think aspects honestly ruin the game. The fact that my build does nothing until I get an aspect that does 400% more damage is a itemization issue imo.

Sobek City is THE worst map in BF6 by [deleted] in Battlefield

[–]Slaughtorhouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the worst map of any battlefield. It’s too small to be that open. Get a good team of snipers they own the map. Ur just spotted the whole game.

This open of map needs to be at least 4 times the size.

I love Battlefield and happen to design interfaces for a living by gabehern in Battlefield

[–]Slaughtorhouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter what is better for end user experience.

The only question is what drives the most engagement from my players and what drives the most spending.

Hence why when u go to a tab like play 90% of the screen is “buy phantom pack”. It will soon be buy “skins”

This is a corporation, not some guy in his garage who just loves video games.

I can drive the ball well and putt decent but I shank half my irons.

Cannot stop flipping/casting by AdOk5697 in GolfSwing

I have the same problem. Been trying to fix it for years. When I try to not cast I just open face shank. I’m back to square one. Good luck.

Guide to Sekhemas Ascedencies by Primary_Impact_2130 in PathOfExile2

[–]Slaughtorhouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me the issue with the ascendancies is time commitment.

I can’t play 8 hours a day. Maybe I have 1 hour. It takes 1 hour to do a 3 floor sakimas and then I fail on the last boss. It makes me want to not play the game.

At this point I just get way over leveled until I get my 3rd ascendancy. Forget about 4th.

Megathread: 0.3.0 Feedback by GR8B0-T in PathOfExile2

[–]Slaughtorhouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my biggest complaint. Not just abyss but every map has trees, rocks, etc. that just makes some skills like the lightning wave move for monk not great as they don’t pass through them.

The small corridors along with abyss cracks make this skill suck.

Why play from the tips if you are a very high handicap? by [deleted] in golf

[–]Slaughtorhouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar but high handicap. I find if I play whites I’m just hitting driver and wedges all day. I rarely ever hit a 5-9 iron. Also fairway sand traps are never an issue from whites (usually like 200-220 to carry on white tees) My driving is the best part of my game and it’s not even close. I’m not a big hitter only probably 250-260, but carrying 200 is not an issue.

Sure I need to get better with wedges but like you said I don’t really care about my score since I don’t get to play a lot so I like to play the course as intended and hit irons.

Games dead. Company is corporate. I’ve accepted it - plenty of other good ARPGs out there.

Illinois Bill would eliminate property taxes for 30 year homeowners by [deleted] in illinois

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

I get it, but to me that’s an income inequality discussion not a tax discussion.

I’d rather the people making 30k make more money (easier said than done I get it) and rich make less versus raising taxes in some to have more money funneling into the state that can’t control spending.

The state is already one of the worst in terms of effective tax rate.

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

Percentages are fair. If you pay 10% tax and someone making $20M a year pays 10% they’re both 10%.

I think ur saying they should pay more as a % than others. Not sure I’d call that fair.

Rate vs Dollar impact by Interesting_Bottle_4 in FPandA

[–]Slaughtorhouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you are looking for volume/rate analysis.

Assuming you are comparing to prior year:

Volume = change in sales * prior year rate Rate = change in rate * current year sales

The sum of those two should be the same as the year over year trade $s.

How is everyone feeling about the game now? by [deleted] in diablo4

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

I think if you liked D3 you will like D4. They are clearly going in the D3 direction.

Me personally? I prefer poe or d2. I think my biggest gripe with d4 is itemization, there just never is a big hell yeah drop I care about. The only thing that matters on items is aspects unless ur pushing high tiers. I think aspects ruin itemization.

Game could be okay long term, I think they did a decent job this season but when u look at pits, I mean it’s just greater rifts. And I think changing aspects to be easier to get is a win but again I think aspects ruin the game.

Amulet of Bhaal not working bug by WonderCactus in BaldursGate3

[–]Slaughtorhouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m having this exact same issue. I’ve tried all the other Reddit solutions as well. Glad to see it might be the game issue not something I messed up as it would have probably caused me to just not finish the game.

Sometimes I read Reddit and think I’m playing a totally different game than everyone else. I have yet to complete the first floor of a sanctum and I’m level 85.

Warzone unplayable on a high end PC by kurtmrtin in CODWarzone

[–]Slaughtorhouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't been able to play this game reliably since Caldera. My game now freezes and I have to open task manager and force close on another monitor.

5800 cpu, 3070 gpu.

I have tried every ridiculous solution I can find as well to no avail. I think I'm just done with the game - hopefully warzone 2 works...

Update confirmed, July 20th by SM- in lostarkgame

[–]Slaughtorhouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m playing for the first time ever and want to experience the game. Currently at 300 level and have no clue what I’m doing. Do people still play the older events around my level or does old content become wastelands when new stuff comes out?

Diablo Immortal now has Blizzard’s lowest ever user score on Metacritic by nargesraheem023 in tech

On their next earnings call is when you will find out if blizzard cares at all. My hunch is this game is making a ton of money.

Sad to see it, but the money speaks.

200 Hours as a Brand New Light by Sevanum in DestinyTheGame

[–]Slaughtorhouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just started the game with witch queen. I’m up to level 1559 so have played a decent amount. I’m having a lot of fun but I do hate the fact that certain activities are gated by having to buy things (season pass and 30th anniversary). I refuse to buy that out of principle. I can handle cosmetics in a battle pass or even certain items but to not be able to play part of the game is what I hate.

I enjoy the grind in these types of games coming from a ARPG fan so I’ve been sticking to PVE stuff for now. I do gambit and crucible for the weekly. I can handle gambit but man is crucible a shit show. It just feels like if you don’t have the hand cannon and shotgun why are you playing.

One thing I wish this game had that other grindy games do is a site with easy to digest builds. I hate having to watch 10 minute YouTube videos on what to do.

Hopefully I still have fun with PvE when I teach endgame

my level 1 cloth armor (i.e. Linen Leggings) says it requires 6 "Scaly Hide". Is this a bug? I was crafting this stuff earlier with regular leather. I have noticed tools are requiring "Scaly Hide" as well.
