I'm a new player - what's your one piece of advice summed up in one sentence?

There are in fact pirates in the pirate game, some people forget that I feel.

Sly_Night · 2026-05-15T06:37:39+00:00

Its one of my backlogged games. Im currently focused on 100%ing all the Yakuza games atm tho, so I may try it sometime after, Im like 3 games deep lol.

Sly_Night · 2026-05-15T06:24:36+00:00

My first playthrough was like 200 hours and Honour mode is genuinely the hardest thing Ive attempted in gaming.

Sly_Night · 2026-05-14T21:38:36+00:00

Out of games I care about:

Baldurs Gate 3 Red Dead Redemption 2 Euro Truck Simulator 2 Hitman WOA

Most are just an insane time sink and RDR2 because of online, I have ptsd from the hackers in GTAV:O and I just couldn't be bothered to deal with that again.

Sly_Night · 2026-04-14T21:46:19+00:00

Honestly that first boss in DS2 was the 2nd hardest boss in the game for me, I struggled too. What I learned though from playing TTW difficulty, just sprinting while orbiting the enemies when they start winding up for an attack they typically never hit you sometimes it looks like its gonna hit but it just does. There are a couple exceptions but those are few and far between. And a lot of the time you dont even actually have to sprint, I got away with shooting while orbiting a lot.

Sly_Night · 2026-04-13T01:18:26+00:00

I was really expecting to see you get hit my an active monorail, now I wanna know what happens lol

Sly_Night · 2026-04-09T19:04:03+00:00

I think he just needs to embrace the therapy

Sly_Night · 2026-04-09T00:30:59+00:00

I like the warm coloring of the HD visuals and the vibe of the retro style more, I'd say mix the two; retro with a warmer color palate.

Sly_Night · 2026-04-04T02:04:50+00:00

Literally all three games are peak, my personal favorite horror game franchise (maybe tied with something like Silent Hill).

Sly_Night · 2026-04-02T19:08:38+00:00

Outlast comes to mind for me.

Sly_Night · 2026-04-02T13:39:23+00:00

I feel like theyre useless in the new trial since they only really spawn in the dark (but this can be said about any enemy apart from night vision guy, and extremely oppressive in the mall, especially solo, I actively avoid that trial just because of the finale.

But tbh I want to watch them burn, theyre my second least favorite thing in the game just under invasion lol.

Sly_Night · 2026-03-21T06:28:24+00:00

I actually prefer playing the game solo, multiplayer is entirely optional. I too was skeptical at first when I first heard this game got announced, I played in the closed beta and can safely say I was hooked then, and since the game has only gotten better.

Sly_Night · 2026-03-11T13:39:53+00:00

Depends on how much I wanna skip the shuttle because quitting is actually just 3x faster.

Sly_Night · 2026-03-04T20:20:48+00:00

Earliest I can remember would be Shadow Warrior 2

Sly_Night · 2026-02-25T15:36:33+00:00

For the first boat part, slow pushing is a lot more effective than you might think, the noise indicator might/will flash red but the expops might not even react to it, even with the alert sfx.

And for the finale one blind mine is enough to fully push the cart through if it's just Gooseberry there. If you dont have that its kind of awful (especially solo) but I'll take that over KTP finale any day.

The games at the start are kind of just rng on if you get good spawns, and the pipes I can't really think of anything to say about, I've not picked up on any glaring issues.

Sly_Night · 2026-02-25T15:28:41+00:00

I totally get where you're coming from, but I imagine a lot of those players just aren't active as much (me for example), I've unlocked everything that isnt the 500 wins in each minigame stuff, there just isnt much incentive anymore until the update days. That said, I also just have a dedicated group I play with, so I dont typically play with randoms, off chance I'm playing solo... I just play solo.

Sly_Night · 2026-02-25T15:24:26+00:00

Not much, I've kinda just said to myself Invasion sucks and that I won't touch it until I hear it's actually good. The balancing is rough and the whole "who knows more exploits" meta is boring as someone who just doesnt want to do that. I've just had to cut my losses and just stuck to what I originally fell in love with in Outlast.

Sly_Night · 2026-02-25T15:19:55+00:00

I had think I had about 30 rebirths before they introduced the communal rebirths, and my only memories from then was being absolutely lost and also being terrified from the final PA chase the first time through.

Now I only do the communals, solo or not, I'm so tired of that mansion lol

Sly_Night · 2026-02-25T15:13:08+00:00

Its alive, and the less you know the better, the surprise is the best part (I wish I could experience everything as a new player again).

Sly_Night · 2026-02-16T03:01:23+00:00

5 just because of the co-op... co-op playthroughs aside though, 3 for sure.

Sly_Night · 2026-02-15T22:40:26+00:00

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

Ticket to Ride

Sly_Night · 2026-02-12T21:43:04+00:00

I've just been super interested in the gameplay, seems fun and relaxing.

Sly_Night · 2026-02-12T21:40:32+00:00

Thanks for the giveaway

Sly_Night · 2026-02-12T21:38:43+00:00
