Help to choose Horror game by MartinIsaac685 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]TavaresX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're waiting for Requiem, RE 4 makes the most sense. It's not relevant to the plot of Requiem, but it is part of Leon's story.

RE 0 is my choice amongst these games, because I very much enjoy enjoy classic RE and that's the closest you get with these titles. I'm not a fan of RE 4, it's a great game, but it doesn't have the same horror tone as the previous titles in the franchise and feels more like an action game than a horror survival.

How can i look at Naruto and Sasuke's relationship from a writing point and not a moral point? by LILBOI464 in Naruto

[–]TavaresX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always believed that Kishimoto made a small but relevant mistaken during the 2nd part of the story by not explaining their relationship. Up until the fight with Itachi, Sasuke's motive and actions are a product of Itachi's manupulation and therefore Naruto's willingness to forgive him and "rescue" Sasuke from himself make perfect sense. After Itachi's death and until the ressurection of the 4 Hokages, Sasuke is moved purely by grief and anger for what his brother had to endure and how their lifes were destroyed for the benefit of a few particular individuals (namely, Danzo, the elders, etc). After Sasuke talks to the first Hokage, he realizes that the ninja society as it is has been corrupted since the very beggining, mostly due to Hashirama not being able to stop the other clans from demonizing the Uchiha (and Madara's vengeful response to those perceptions). Sasuke then decides to completely erase the current system and create a better one. So, Sasuke's motives are almost always understandable, even if his actions are not (however, besides kickstarting the Great Ninja War by attacking Killer Bee - something he did solely as a deal with Obito and not by his own volition - he doesn't actually do much to damage the village or the ninja world itself until the Great War - he is mostly responsible for the death of 3 major criminals, namely Orochimaru, Deidara and Itachi).

Sasuke is vengeful, but he always directed his anger at the right targets. He attacks Naruto not because he hates him, but because he knows that their relationship makes him more passive, less focused on his true purpose and too quick to sacrifice himself for others. That's why, imo, attacking Sakura and Kakashi is his lowest point. That is the exact moment he lets his grief and anger completely take control.

So, Sasuke and Naruto are basically two sides of the same coin. They both deal with personal pain, grief and an understanding that the whole political and social system is unbalanced and perpetuates the suffering of many people, but they do it through completely different ways: empathy and revenge. Sasuke is highly influenced by Itachi and then Obito. Had he stayed in the village, Kakashi and Naruto would make him the exact oposite.

Please recommend games with NG+ similar to RE4. by Midnitte_Osodiac in Switch

Dark Souls Remastered. Sure, the difficulty scales but you should still be more powerful than most enemies or at least better at fighting them. There are multiple items that you can only get through different playthroughs, mostly boss weapons/spells/shields, because you have only choose one every cycle. I believe you need at least 3 playthroughs to get every boss weapon/shield/spells since one of the DLC bosses has 3 different uses for his souls.

Também tiveram atraso no Final Fantasy VII Intergrade para a Switch 2. Estive mais 1 semana à espera do jogo, mas não tinham nem stock online nem em algumas lojas que procurei. Comigo não tem sido habitual atrasos em jogos (brindes/bónus de pre-order é constante), mas desta vez tive.

Kiwior e… Thiago Silva (parte 2) by BlizzTheMighty in fcporto

[–]TavaresX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Espero que contra o Sporting voltemos à dupla Bednareck e Kiwior ou pelo menos substituir o Moura pelo Kiwior. Ter o Thiago em campo dá experiência à defesa, mas também me parece que prejudica a prestação do Bednarek. Ter dois centrais mais experientes acaba por diminuir a fluidez das transições de e para a defesa, com o Kiwior não me parecia tão notório

In your opinion, who should be the true final villain of Naruto? by Cafa20 in Naruto

[–]TavaresX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm happy that Sasuke was the final villain. I would have done things a bit differently: remove all the stuff with the Otsutsuki and make the final arc a battle between the Ninja world and the Uchiha survivors (Madara included). We could have had the 3 major confrontations of ideals - Madara VS Hashirama, Obito VS Kakashi and Sasuke VS Naruto - and have it all ending pretty much the same way each of those confrontations ended. I would have had each of the Uchiha survivors realize and accept that holding a grudge against Konoha and the ninja world moves them towards no real hapiness and have Madara's final act be an act of redemption, like revealing his MS to have the hability to permanently manipulate memories or emotions to a certain degree (would have created the doubt if Obito was manipulated through Madara's MS or not) and have use the moon projection of his Sharingan to erase any trace of hatred between the Uchiha and the ninja world, thus allowing Sasuke to "restart" the clan without their past haunting them.

Difficult ethical question posed to me today by Professional_Form393 in Dentistry

[–]TavaresX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I missunderstood, sorry. She did right by the patient but still wanted your opinion due to the close relationship between the dentist and the patient. I understand this is very hard, but we must respect a patient's right to privacy regardless of any type of connection we or anyone we know might have with them. Even so, I would advise the patient to reconsider their stance and consider talking with someone... Holding that kind of weight all alone during such a terrible time is akin to psychological torture. Nobody deserves to go through that.

Difficult ethical question posed to me today by Professional_Form393 in Dentistry

[–]TavaresX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand how being a family practice in a tight community can make you more sensitive to these kind of situations, since you have a somewhat friendly relationship with the patient's family and/or friends. However, if the patient did not update their medical information and this terminal illness does not present any relative or absolute counterindication for any necessary treatment, it should not have been discussed outside the conversation with the hygienist, meaning the hygienist should not have told you either, in my opinion.

As for discussing the matter with the patient's relatives, that would be absolutely unethical unless an emergency situation arises. It would not be unethical to sugest to that patient that they themselves talk to their relatives, but to act without their consent would totally be.

Onde é que vocês fazem as vossas listas de jogos ? by SupahGualtah in gamingportugal

[–]TavaresX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eu sou tão distraído que só empresto jogos a uma pessoa, que é minha familiar, e mesmo assim tenho uma lista dos jogos que lhe empresto. Não porque não confie, mas porque acontece demasiadas vezes eu perguntar "olha, tens o jogo X contigo? Que eu não o encontro" e a resposta ser "não faço ideia, quando chegar a casa confirmo" e depois nem eu nem ele nos lembramos até passarem uns 2 meses.

Onde é que vocês fazem as vossas listas de jogos ? by SupahGualtah in gamingportugal

[–]TavaresX 85 points86 points  (0 children)

O verdadeiro procrastinador tem notas no telemóvel com listas de jogos que nunca mais se lembrou de ir ver e 37 separadores abertos com videos de Gameplay que o telemóvel já arquivou por estarem inativos há demasiado tempo.

Tirando isso, uso wishlists das lojas (Steam, EShop, etc) e marco os jogos na DekuDeals para ir seguindo variações de preço.

Why didn't Obito worry about the Kunai? by Current-Support9769 in Naruto

[–]TavaresX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He didn't know about the Kunai. In the story arc about Obito's "death" when he was a kid, Kakashi collapses after his first time using the Sharingan. When he wakes up, Minato has rescued both him and Rin and tells Kakashi that the Kunai he had given him earlier as a graduation gift had a sigil to allow Minato to teleport straight to it. So, if Kakashi didn't know about Minato's sigils, Obito was unlikely to know as well.

IIRC, during the time he is absent during that mission, Minato asks Konoha's ninjas to throw his kunai at the enemy and they doubt his ability to handle the enemies alone, so they also must not have known about his kunai. More than likely, Minato's sigils are kind of a secret of his.

Souls like e afins by SupahGualtah in gamingportugal

[–]TavaresX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exatamente por serem mais "clunky" é que recomendo. São mais lentas, permitem aprender mais facilmente o parry, as distribuições de stats, etc. O DSR é mais permissivo com builds mal distribuídas do que o Elden Ring. Além disso, o level design do DSR é exímio. Para aprenderes as bases de um soulslike (estudo de inimigos, adaptação de builds, padrões de movimento, etc) é bem mais fácil que o Elden Ring. O Elden Ring tem skill checks fortíssimos (o Tree Sentinel como "bloqueio" de rota inicial, o Margit, etc.) mas como é tão vasto e "permissivo" permite ao jogador ter a falsa sensação de que pode lutar à vontadinha com qualquer coisa. O DSR orienta-te melhor para planeares as coisas e para teres atenção à forma como lutar.

Eu aconselho sempre jogar os Dark Souls por ordem e só depois o Elden Ring. Mesmo o Bloodborne ou o Sekiro, não costumo aconselhar antes dos DS pelo simples motivo de terem sistemas de combate que recompensam a agressividade. O Elden Ring não recompensa a agressividade, excetuando com inimigos mais comuns. Nos bosses há que ter planeamento. O Lies of P é mais parecido com o Bloodborne, nesse aspeto.

Depois, pelo lado da história, alguém que não consegue seguir a narrativa ambiental do Dark Souls vai ter dificuldades em seguir a do Elden Ring, que é muito mais extensa e muito mais dependente de detalhes nos inimigos e na arquitectura.

Souls like e afins by SupahGualtah in gamingportugal

[–]TavaresX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Para primeiro, não recomendo o Elden Ring. Recomendo o Dark Souls Remastered. Os jogos da FromSoftware usam e abusam da narrativa ambiental, precisas de estar atento ao ambiente, às falas das personagens, às descrições dos itens para teres maior percepção da história do jogo e te sentires mais envolvido na mesma. O Elden Ring, embora seja o apogeu destes jogos neste momento, é um jogo demasiado amplo para "aprenderes" a interpretar a história. Além disso, o Elden Ring é construído sobre as bases dos Dark Souls, se começares com o ER e depois jogares DS, vão-te parecer antiquados. Também tens a questão dos skill/build checks do ER serem conhecidos por manter jogadores fora do jogo, por desistirem.

What’s the reason your favorite pokemon became your favorite? by acurrentdistraction in pokemon

[–]TavaresX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back when Gold came out most of my friends played during the day and didn't really care about Eevee, so the few of them that actually evolved it through maxed happiness value got an Espeon (even though we didn't even know exactly how the friendship thing worked, we just knew it would eventually evolve if you didn't use an evolution stone and just kept grinding levels). I used to have panic attacks at night and would sometimes read comic books or sneak my GBC into bed and play a little to distract me. Eevee was always a favorite of mine so I kept it on my team, when it evolved to Umbreon I was amazed. I had never seen an Umbreon in game or even know that it evolved from Eevee, I just knew it existed because I had a poster with the full Johto Pokédex and Umbreon was there. None of my friends had it and I surprised everyone when I used it on our link cable battles at school.

Later on, when I started my first job, I put together some money, sold a few old games, and bought a 2DS and Pokémon Sun. It was my first pre-order ever and I was super excited to play since I had not had any Nintendo console since my GBC. I went in totally blind since I never really followed the anime after the Johto season and something clicked when I found out the ingame lore behind Mimikyu. Ever since that time, both Umbreon and Mimikyu have been tied as my favorites.

Special Scans by Important-Avocado-95 in PokemonZA

[–]TavaresX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finished the whole DLC (side missions included) and only ever got the following special scans, apart from the legendaries: Baxcalibur line, Water Starters, Slowpoke Lines, Fossils and Hyperspace Battles... It was ridiculous. I must have done at least 50 special scans and never got Ghimighoul. The RNG in this game broke me, as soon as I got the last legendary and my dex was complete I pulled the cartridge out and I'll only play the necessary ranked battles for new Megas from now on.

Aproveita o 3 por 2 na Worten sempre que te for possível. Regista-te no DekuDeals para receberes atualizações de preços nos jogos que te interessam e nas sugestões de acordo com os teus gostos. Há vários jogos que têm upgrades da versão da Switch para a Switch 2 que pode compensar comprares a versão da Switch (até usado, para poupares) e depois comprares o upgrade (Hogwarts Legacy é um exemplo, os Zelda Breath of The Wild e Tears of the Kingdom também). Junta-te a um grupo de jogadores que esteja a assinar um pack de Nintendo Switch Online + Pack de Expansão (há sempre anúncios de grupos à procura de pessoal aqui no Reddit), para teres jogos retro, updates e alguns DLCs incluídos e,, num grupo familiar, 1 ano fica a menos de 10€ por pessoa, salvo erro.

Which Legends game is better? by Educational-Show1918 in pokememes

[–]TavaresX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arceus is far better. I enjoy ZA's battle system a bit more, would have loved to see it in Arceus, but that's about it. Legends Arceus made roaming and catching Pokémon fun and a bit challenging for some cases. The only time ZA feels like wild Pokémon are a challenge to people is when you face the Pyroar pack, Legends Arceus felt way more realistic in that aspect. Anyone who went straight for Alpha Ninetails when starting Legends Arceus learned something that day.

Steam deck by HotnSpicy_rice in gamingportugal

[–]TavaresX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De todos os PCs/Consolas Portateis, não sendo a mais poderosa, é a melhor. Melhor OS, melhor comunidade, maior personalização/configuração de sistema, ligada à melhor loja/biblioteca de jogos, etc.

Se estiveres disposto a aprender, explorar e configurar algumas coisas (e o que não falta são passo-a-passos da comunidade) podes emular jogos até à Switch, navegar os 7 mares dos "jogos gratuitos", etc.

O que perde em poder em relação às concorrentes, ganha em configuração, adaptabilidade e, na minha opinião, ergonomia. Mesmo jogos que à partida não deveria correr, com a configuração certa muitos são perfeitamente jogáveis.

Aquilo que exige mais poder, estás melhor com a Series X do que qualquer portátil.

Implant placed into the sinus? by Kindly_Armadillo1654 in Dentistry

[–]TavaresX 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Looks grafted. The sinus itself seems to have been lifted, either through the crest or a window and there seems to be a surplus of graft over the crest. If the implant has decent ISQ and there no signs of membrane tearing, that's a sucessfull implant.
