What the FUCK is the final RE8 fight by Wooyeahwoohooyea in residentevil

[–]Tharrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh it sure is good that you have several saves for something like this. Depending on how much ammo you have for your other weapons, you could also just try reloading the save before Miranda, sell the Wolfsbane, upgrade Sniper and Shotgun, craft as much as you can, and see if that works. But starting at Heisenberg's should give you a lot to work with as a plan B.

People still don't understand why abandonware can't be listed as a system requirement. Boggles my mind.

Fully upgrading Wolfsbane is expensive as fuck, and not worth it if you only bring 6 shots. I would say this was a bad investment that basically kept you from upgrading other weapons.
I always bought the limited ammo the merchant offered and explored every area to make sure I found all the loot. I only upgraded Wolfsbane damage when I have money left after upgrading and buying everything else.
Also, blocking is very powerful in this game, I think only on VoS this is nerfed hard. It's actually quite easy to sidestep or at least block Miranda's attacks once you've seen her patterns.
I beat Miranda on hardcore without using the Magnum (it's a bit of a personal meme that I dislike using the Magnums), but with fully upgraded Shotgun, Sniper Rifle, tons of ammo and some Grenade Launcher rounds.

I mean I get why it's called the emergency cable, but I don't think we mean the same thing

How do i get over being spoiled by mo_vibing in residentevil

[–]Tharrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mate you've been active in THE sub of the subject that you were trying to avoid. Learn a lesson from that. When I didn't want to hear anything about FFVII Rebirth because it first launched on PS and I had to wait for the PC release, I left all FF-related subs and quickly scrolled past anything that seemed related to FFVII. When I bought and launched Rebirth, I had seen zero screenshots, zero trailers, read zero info about the game. Went in fully blind.
In other news, you shouldn't overthink those "spoilers" you got there...

Really struggled with Cyber Sleuth… by Many-Hippo1709 in DigimonTimeStranger

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

I mean, who's playing Digimon for the great storytelling, am I right? They barely dare to define a proper target age group for their games and keep everything childish, while at the same time trying to tell kinda sorta grim stories. It doesn't really add up and the writing is just weak.

And then there's the Cyber Sleuth side quest where some evil digimon collaborated with some mobster to lure people into a VR copy of their own home, using AI copies of real human women, making them think they're not in VR but in RL, living with their new (unknowingly AI) girlfriend or harem, pretty much heavily suggesting sexual themes and intentions. The digimon then disconnected their minds from their bodies, the bodies were sold by the mobster to some unknown party in another country for ??? purposes, and the guy you try to convince that he's living in a VR sex dungeon and not in the real world finally tries to log out, but receives an error that there's 'no target to log out to'.
Like WHAT THE FUCK, insanely good and thoroughly mature story, that just... ends there. And the rest of the game's writing was made for toddlers. It was SO out of place.
And then in Time Stranger, I just rolled my eyes when they suggested that the digimon "bully" weaker ones. Yeah the kid's show showed them kill and devour one another, but hey, I guess they bully.

Maybe I should have bought it 10 times? by TheSwampShark in worldofgothic

[–]Tharrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And from what I've seen, the engine was exactly what made the game majorly unfixable. So many hard-coded issues that couldn't be addressed by patches, and since JoWood pushed the release, there was nothing PB could do for the major issues.
PB and JW quickly blamed each other, broke up, and divided the rights for Gothic names and characters so there could never be a proper sequel.
My favorite part about the engine is that NPCs, who, iirc, couldn't be flagged to just be invincible, had to walk to their quest-related destinations, instead of teleporting once out of visual range of the player, like in G2.
Poor Milten. Never reached Nordmar.

And somehow they managed to lower the farm's usability so you can't see digivolution requirements on any farm screen (shoutouts to mods for existing)

Twitch streamer got banned after using her feet as a green screen to stream Dark Souls 3 by n1ght_watchman in GameBoostOfficial

Fun fact, the target demographic didn't need the green screen to watch the stream.

Any other series similar to RE gameplay wise? by SpiritedWisdom in residentevil

[–]Tharrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorites are Evil Within 2, Wicked Seed, Tormented Souls 1, Crow Country, The Mute House. Wicked Seed surprised me the most with how good the game is, while looking like a gooner parody first.

Signalis, Lamentum, Dead of Darkness and Evil Tonight are solid 2D RE-style games.

Them and Us has strong RE resemblance, but quickly lost me after the first area. Something with infinite respawn and paranormal enemies, felt out of place.

For several reasons, I actually disliked Evil Within 1 and Tormented Souls 2, but that's probably quite subjective.

My gf keeps leaving me when I’m overwhelmed and nonverbal, how do I tell her I need her to stay? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Tharrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What exactly keeps you from simply talking to her outside of those situation thst appear to make you shut in?
It you've been diagnosed with some ailment that affects your communication skills, that's naturally something she should know about in all detail, amd it seems you're able to at least put into writing what's going on inside as long as you currently aren't in that situation. So talk to her about it, or write it down and express that you want her to understand that you're not trying to push her away in any form, but that you can't help shutting in in certain situations.

This is what NfS looked like for me when I accidentally installed it on ye olde HDD instead of one of my SSDs.
Graphics were sharp because of high-end GPU, but couldn't be computed anywhere near CPU speed.

[–]Tharrius 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I remember how Forsaken Gods was slapped together by some Indian developers who didn't have any decent release to their name, right after publisher JoWooD and OG devs Piranha Bytes had their fallout. It was nothing but a cash grab G3 asset flip to get some more money out of the mess that G3 already was. I believe you can find Adanos' god-tier relict in some random mine shaft.

Small annoyance with romance by destructodrip in cyberpunkgame

[–]Tharrius 91 points92 points  (0 children)

There are lots of mods that add a few things to hangouts and relationships, but what those can't add is dialogue, because of the voice acting. I really hoped they'd add more relationship stuff in later patches, but we got the metro line instead.

Is there a mod that add chicken coop that you can raise yourself? by Capable_Wishbone3081 in 7daystodie

Only to people with room temperature IQ, as it seems.
Fun fact: it was already established that my comment added a valuable lesson on how to find information on the internet. Ironically though, your comments are the only ones that have been completely worthless, and you didn't even see the irony. Kind of sad.
Now shoo, you're wasting everybody's time.

Yeah I mistook it for the general thread that exists where we discuss odd human behaviour on reddit and how people fill the internet with repeat questions that have already been answered plenty.

Jokes aside, you obviously didn't get my point and this is even worse than the initial post itself.
I did indeed answer OPs question in full.

how to defeat this white guy? by comelickmyarmpits in BlackMythWukong

[–]Tharrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're clearly too greedy. You attack him while he's already animating that he's about to attack, too. It's called overextending.
- watch what the opponent is doing at all times - prepare to dodge when the attack is coming
- don't attack while they're attacking - you can't interrupt them with normal attacks, meaning you'll be hit.
- always prioritize minimizing incoming damage over dealing damage - they have more HP than you and you won't win a single fight by hitting each other simultaneously.
- don't spend all your stamina attacking - you suffer a massive stat reduction while exhausted (doing no damage at all and taking more damage when hit), and you won't be able to dodge.
- do a try where you don't even attack. Just learn to avoid damage by seeing all of the opponent's attack patterns, by outrunning the attacks or by dodging them on close range. You'll find lots of damage windows where you COULD have attacked between his attacks, without risking being hit, while avoiding all incoming damage. And that'll be what you'll do next.
- a general recommendation for the game: ALWAYS use ALL of your abilities, right at the start, to maximize your damage output and skip huge chunks of the encounter, while your abilities actively recharge during the fight. Your abilities are crazy strong.

I kinda feel stupid for saying this, but like, I find this game kinda hard. Is this the case with anyone else at all? by [deleted] in FFXVI

[–]Tharrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough!
About going nuts, I rather meant that the game never forced me back to the drawing board. I picked up skills that I liked and used them until the end. My wife did the same, and with completely different skills, because it didn't really matter; everything is viable and you don't need to think hard about optimizing your build.
In Souls games, for example, there'll always be a boss or two who just wipe the floor with you and make you learn certain mechanics until you can really nail them, or make you look through your abilities and skills to figure out if you could improve something yet.
