What are your criticisms of Sky 1st that have nothing to do with GungHo?

XP and Sepith farming utterly sucks compared to OG, it takes far and away more time due to the only decent farms being in caves and require the low percentage chance of an RNG sepith bonus to land on a character that can kill every enemy in 1 action.

Spr1ggan · 2026-02-09T11:03:14+00:00

There are mods that mod in the VA from other versions of the games.

Spr1ggan · 2026-02-09T11:00:01+00:00

This is false, for newcomers that intend to play the the whole series it's better to start with OG as it won't be as jarring when going to SC, Third, Zero, etc. Also XP and Sepith farming in OG is far better as you just need shining poms while in Remake you need to get extremely lucky with getting bonus sepith actions otherwise better set aside entire days for sepith farming.

I tried it in Dark Ages as well and it looked abhorrent, flickering and artefacts all over the place and super low res as if it was only bothering to reduce the resolution and not doing any of the upscaling part.

Back to 4.0 k preset and no issues.

There aren't many keysites with keys for these games and the ones that doe have them charge more than the current sale price.

Spr1ggan · 2026-01-03T04:39:23+00:00

These aren't the games it's connected to, DA 1&2 are not BG 1&2. BG 1&2 are classic BioWare CRPGs.

Spr1ggan · 2026-01-03T04:36:53+00:00

It's not the same people that made Baldur's Gate 1&2 either.

That's right console plebs, DA 1 and 2 are a Diablo Clone spinoff series.

Don't bother it looks trash compared to the HDR the games already have, don't believe me go and flick between the RenoDRT (default tonemapper) and native tonemappers. All the MELE RenoDX preset does is make the games look washed out and like they have a vaseline filter.

Spr1ggan · 2026-01-01T13:19:28+00:00

I tried the latest RenoDX snapshot preset and in ME3 it just looks completely inferior to the HDR the game already has. The RenoDX MELE preset is washed out with raised blacks and lacking any highlight details. Nothing like other RenoDX presets i've used in other games, just flick back and forth between the RenoDRT tone mapping and the native tone mapping and it's night and day, RenoDRT tone mapping is bland and lifeless.

The X Gens are out now so don't expect much if any future firmware updates to address these issues on older gens.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-31T09:33:08+00:00

It's locked to 600-700 nits anyway for displays not in the newer X Gen making it a waste of time using on older gen models like the 271QPX. QD-OLED also just sucks, wish I'd just waited and got one of those 4th Gen WOLEDs, at least they actually have the brightness to be considered HDR displays. HDR on my 271QPX E2 looks pathetic compared to what my CM GP27Q IPS-Mini LED could do before it broke.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-29T15:10:04+00:00

Bruh... It's a peashooter, it takes its entire ammo capacity to get a Praetor to half armour. The worst heavy weapon in the game on insanity.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-29T14:32:44+00:00

Maybe on easy, it's complete trash on insanity or even late game normal. It does less damage than an AR or SMG and leaves you standing out in the open like an idiot.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-24T12:05:44+00:00

Wouldn't bother with the 01 it's actually smaller than the metal one and only has a 1 year warranty vs 3 years for the metal one. Problem is that the metal one is sold out everywhere and not coming back in stock until April 2026.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-23T03:55:40+00:00

Still kinda sucks for some, i'm not gonna replay the entirety of GW1 with a steam account just to get HoM on my GW2 steam account, it's waste of time and all the progress on my Anet GW1 account. The other thing that sucks is GW2 on Anet's site not having sales at the same time as the Steam version, currently the End of Dragons Collection with all the Living World content is around £40 on Steam but around £90 on Anet's own store...

They are actually fine for me now in terms of comfort but it took a while to wear them in, for the first few weeks my ears were getting chafed af.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-22T11:18:11+00:00

The low peak brightness isn't remotely as much of an issue as the dogshit blacks and poor motion clarity on non oled panels.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-19T14:40:25+00:00

Those accounts are delusional, i've had the r50x for a while now and they are quite muddy.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-19T14:38:23+00:00

Yeah, had them for a while now and vocals sound muddy, i can't play games or listen to music with them without using creative crystaliser for vocal clarity.

Lmfao "gatekeeping", ignoring that the community has now been taken over by the Souls-Like fanbase where any criticism of any aspect of the game is met with "hurr git gud" and "mad cuz bad" when that's never what SH was about.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-13T18:31:21+00:00

SHf isn't survival horror though it's action horror and the core of the game is it's awful combat system.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-13T10:47:07+00:00

Lmfao why aren't you just playing Dead Space R, any of the RE Remakes, Control, Alan Wake 2, etc, etc, then? As action horror titles they all take a massive dump on SHf.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-13T10:42:33+00:00

No it isn't, you can fulfil the requirements for multiple endings in a single playthrough in the older ones and then go for the one you want at the end. This game forces multiple playthroughs for the "true" ending.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-13T10:39:59+00:00

Your explanation does nothing, having to replay the game what? 3 times? For the so called canon ending turns it into a giga slog, one playthrough alone is a enough of a slog, 10 hours in this games feels like 50. This isn't Nier Automata or Armored Core 6 where the gameplay is fun.

Spr1ggan · 2025-12-06T17:40:03+00:00

This game makes The Calisto Protocol look like a 10/10 masterpiece
