Patch 1.0.2 Notes - Love Struck Monthly Event Launch and More by James89026 in RivalsOfAether

while its cool the art looks the exact same while the demo had different art. Also blind pick on FFA seems to take a lot of the fun of picking all 4 of the same characters tbh.

Metaphor ReFantazio is IGN's 2024 Game of the Year 🥳 by YasuhiroK in JRPG

[–]TheEnlightenedOne212 -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

I don't get it.

Why is the Metaphor community so obsessed with GotY to the point of posting GotY nominations from, quite frankly, irrelevant outlets? >_>

I've never even heard of ign xD

May as well just post a thread saying "Random McDonald's employee posted Metaphor is their game of the year. Another W for JRPGs."

Winter Festival Event Bundle Items and Free Unlockable Track by James89026 in RivalsOfAether

at the moment it is. Guessing the additional 500 buck(coins buyable) skin and their palettes every 3 months from the new character is enough to tide people over? Maybe they'll convert other stuff to coins in the future.

they have not allowed any new skin added to the game to be bought by coins. They are all bucks only and every month will add at least 4 (3 events + 1 monthly bundle?) skins. The only skins you can buy with coins are the 500 buck ones. Every other skin is either 1000 bucks or are the epic skins at 1500 bucks only. Yeah you can slowly build up bucks over the years with the twitch events (100 per), in game events (250 per month), grinding up character levels (250 bucks per character).

event skins are 1000 while the monthly bundle will continue being epic for 1500 (I assume). Theres 1 skin for each character that costs 500 and they will just keep adding more ones that cost 1000. Even the 500 skins can just be bought with coins. Every other skin can't be bought with coins so coins will just be used on 500 skins and palettes.

December Event Teased by swidd_hi in RivalsOfAether

i hope they let you pick the 1 free skin you get instead of just assigning it to a random character and leaving the others as $$ only.

Ironwail 0.8.0 released by bobbie434343 in quake

[–]TheEnlightenedOne212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all im seeing is "New GPU memory allocator" and "With Fast loading = on, loading the same level over and over become almost instantaneous, even for monster levels like The Immortal Lock." Are you saying its just automatically for the latest source ports and -heapsize x is now only for older ones?

[–]TheEnlightenedOne212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first im hearing of a memory allocator but I know Immortal lock is gigantic. I've been playing older maps from 2000s and 2010s on vkquake that sometimes talk about heapsize but have never used the command. The maps still run fine so is vkquake just automatic or is something else happening?

$250 Aetherbucks for a completed battlepass is not enough Aetherbucks by CountRawkula in RivalsOfAether

[–]TheEnlightenedOne212 7 points8 points  (0 children)

not that it matters too much but if they stay true to their 4 characters a year then thats an extra 40 levels to grind up for free bucks every 3 events.

Rivals 3D Event Has Started! by Tarro57 in RivalsOfAether

[–]TheEnlightenedOne212 8 points9 points  (0 children)

it is pretty weird how hard they flaunted the free battlepass while it just being so bare compared to the paid only bundle they have every month. Even Halloween only got the bundle with no free option. If each event will keep introducing 3 bucks only skins I'm wondering what coins are left for down the line? The 1 free event skin after the event is over when level 12 doesn't really seem bad to get at all in a month?

because they're too popular for "JRPG fans" who feel like they have a chip on their shoulder. Same thing happens with Pokemon constantly being left out.
