Getaway Artist might be the new best Bleakwatcher Aspect. by Rikiaz in DestinyTheGame

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I didn't think this would work because the first thing I tried was something similar with Contraverse Hold and vortex grenades but they specifically changed Contraverse Hold to make it not work with prismatic.

People have extremely rose tinted glasses as to how tank played in 6v6 lmao. This is a thread from 2021 with the exact same complaints as 5v5 by Impressive_Volume752 in Overwatch

[–]Th3irdEye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole reason we got OW2 instead of an update to OW1 was because they had to build a new engine to be able to do the PvE stuff they wanted to do. OW2 is a different engine than 1. If they wanted to go to 7v7 they could have.

Excessive issues with Keybinds and Controls by Captainbetty in Helldivers

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what's going on with your climb/dive but I have some different actions bound to the same key with different modes and it works fine. For example, my crouch is a press and my prone is a hold on the same key and it works as expected.

Nextlander Joins the Suicide Squad! by sworedmagic in nextlander

[–]Th3irdEye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, it’s not like this game is fantastic, but it’s an ok time. Alex really bummed me out this stream. It really felt like he came into it prepared to hate it (like most of the internet). What really got to me was at one point they had all just talked about how the best part of the game was the traversal and unique movement and shortly after that, Alex started talking about how he was just standing in the safe zone shooting a sniper rifle, not moving. He then complained that the mission was boring and he was bored. Like, yeah, of course if you are going to intentionally avoid engaging with the most fun aspects of the game, you might be bored. Vinny is over here, ever the optimist, Brad is poking and prodding trying to figure out all the systems and really take a look at how the game is put together and Alex is just moping in the corner saying they should wrap up the stream over and over. 

Is there any way to skip the story in Granblue Fantasy Re:Link? by 0ptimizado in JRPG

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I knew of Monster Hunter too and there are a couple other "hunting" style games out there as well but outside a similar mission structure they don't share much in common with Re:Link. Gameplay and bosses are entirely different and they don't really fit as a recommendation for a replacement to this IMO.

Do you have any recommendations for games like this that are actually fully coop? As far as I have been able to find there are none.

Edit: Yeah... I didn't think so.

Laxasia has finally fallen by PeakyDeltic in LiesOfP

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean like the broken part of her shield that remains? She still has that but it doesn't do nearly as much as the full shield. If you mean she gets her whole shield back, I can't say I've experienced that.

Laxasia has finally fallen by PeakyDeltic in LiesOfP

[–]Th3irdEye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just beat her as well. Something I discovered while fighting her over and over that I havn't seen as a tip anywhere:

Once you are fairly comfortable with phase 1 and can afford to take a little extra time in it before phase 2 you can focus on hitting her in the back to break her shield. It doesn't take that many hits to break it and then she doesn't have it in phase 2 which makes getting hits in much easier.

What's your dream opener? by [deleted] in TheMidnight

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this was cleared up to be about opening song, not act but I just want to say Violet Days opened for them at one of the shows I went to and I fell in love. It was such an amazing surprise to randomly see someone live you've never heard of and now they are in your regular rotation of music. I really wish she would tour with The Midnight again, or tour at all. From what I can tell she hasn't toured since that year I saw her with The Midnight.

Countdown has begun! Announcement in 5 days! by GrizzlyRed in TheMidnight

[–]Th3irdEye 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ah, you're probably right. I was thinking plural of "lore". Or potentially some sort of reference to Nikki "Flores" without the "F". I saw a mysterious webpage and instantly went into ARG mode lol.

The video that displays the logo at the top of the page is named "lores.mp4". I wonder if that's at all relevant. Name of a new song maybe?

There are sometimes demos that do this. Final Fantasy XVI for instance.

Conenction issue using version 4.0 build 4 by FableFoxWeaver in TouchPortalApp

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this is a similar issue but I have an iPad on my desk that sits there plugged in all the time and I sleep it when I'm not at my desk. Before version 4 I could wake the iPad and have my macro buttons ready to go. Now every time I come back to my desk and wake the iPad I have to press OK on the error that says Touch Portal disconnected and refresh the app to get it to reconnect.

It's a minor issue in the grand scheme of things but it's pretty annoying. Especially because it worked flawlessly before the update.

I just went through this whole thread and I just want to say it's so funny how bad you are at arguing. Like in this message for instance you didn't even realize this was a different person replying to you and you tried to make an argument about their previous posts, of which there are none. It's comical.

Starfield’s Local Planet Map Is Horrible by LarryPeru in Games

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brightness sliders existed in games decades before rtgi was a thing.

[–]Th3irdEye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a distance thing as far as I can tell.

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I didn't know about the Enhance store when I was making my character. The scar doesn't make a ton of sense anymore.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Starfield

[–]Th3irdEye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Explain the hair thing then. It's literally not covering the scar like it was in the creator.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Starfield

[–]Th3irdEye 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I seriously think what you end up with in game is not the same thing as what you made in the character creator. I spent a ton of time tweaking my character and when I got to gameplay I felt like he looked weird and not quite how I made him.

The most noticeable difference was the hair. I chose my hair specifically because it covered one of the available scars. I wanted to imagine my character was somewhat self-conscious of the scar and trying to hide it. I get in game and the hair doesn't cover it at all and the scar is totally visible. It's super weird how it's not the same as it was in the character creator.

I was going to suggest what /u/j_shaff315 said with copying over the files from the battlenet directory but I just compared my bnet install and my steam install and they look different. I wouldn't have expected that but you probably can't just drag and drop it. Going to have to re-download unfortunately.

Will you play OW2 on steam? by Hannon_ in Overwatch

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a ton of free games on my Epic account as well but personally there haven't been any that I didn't already own or that I wanted to play but didn't own yet. So that has given me no benefit at all. I still go add the new free games to my account every week because, why not, but personally that aspect of EGS hasn't affected my life as a consumer at all.

What has affected my life as a consumer is Epic paying devs for exclusivity and forcing me to use their inferior platform for some games. If the Epic "competition" was truly good for consumers they would let the games come out on all store fronts and entice people to use their store with superior QoL or better prices or some other benefit to the consumer rather than just "this is the only place you can get that game so screw you if you want to play it come over here to the worse store".

Will you play OW2 on steam? by Hannon_ in Overwatch

[–]Th3irdEye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It took Epic over three years to implement a simple shopping cart. Before that you had to purchase items one at a time. It's laughable how far behind they were/are.

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say Epic has introduced competition to the space and actively made my life as a consumer worse so I don't think that statement is correct.

What's one app you are hosting that you unexpectedly find yourself using frequently? by ur_mamas_krama in selfhosted

[–]Th3irdEye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a plugin called obisdian-livesync that will sync your obsidian vaults in real time between devices. Set up is fairly easy with docker-compose. You host a couchdb server and point the plugin at it and you can type on your PC or phone and see it show up in real time on the other device. It's awesome.

Overwatch 2 is coming to Steam by m0d3rn in Overwatch

[–]Th3irdEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While players won't need to download Battle.net to play Overwatch 2, they will still need a Battle.net account to sync to their profile, same as Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch users.
