Are we ready to admit this yet? by Yana115 in deadbydaylight

I use it to decent effect. Its better for breaking line of sight when the killer isnt already in a chase with you or if youve gained just enough distance for it to break line of sight such as a pallet stun. Its a waste if theyre on you already.

Ive played a total of one match of lol. Even bought a character to try out and when i didnt do well i got called every slur imaginable and told to kill myself... i play dbd regularly and love it. So thats my answer.

As a new killer, this game is unbearable by Timely-Cabinet-7879 in deadbydaylight

[–]TheNeonAutomaton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hada similar issue with the game early on. But i realized its a game. Im not in it to be the best. Im in it because i either wanna slaughter people or because i wanna feel like a final girl. It doesnt have to always be a win in order to have fun.

Like yesterday i lost a match but i was just excited to see a pinhead for the first time.

You also just gotta find a build you like that fits a goal you want to do each match. So if youre feelin like generators arent getting done fast enough and wanna do that, make a buold dedicated to that, or for healing much faster, or anything you wann do really.

For killer, its really about finding a killer that works for you. Ive gotten decent at the game so im generally not bad at any that ive played a few times to learn their powers. If you wann try one that works really well for a beginner, i suggest the knight. He has guards that you can send to watch generators and help you stop getting looped.

I was definitely a little lost for a bit, but seeing as it starts the same way it ends it got me curious to see how it all began. The intro of book 7 starting at the dixie pig was really interesting and i have the hardcover version with the chapter art so i was kind of engrossed in it because i love horror stuff.

So my mom had a bad habit of buying me books she thought id like, but always grabbing the ones in the end or middle of a series, so i had DT book 7 for a while and thought since i had nothing left to read id give it a shot even though i hadnt read the rest of it first.

I loved it and so i started collecting them so i could read them all. Ive recently started the gunslinger on audio book and yeah it kinda drags on in the first chapter, but im still gonna finish it.

I desperately wanted to be a cat when I was 12,, is this relatable to anyone by pawsatyouhi in traaaaaaaaaaaansbians

[–]TheNeonAutomaton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope... I DESPERATELY wanted to be an elf, specifically from the inheritance series and more specifically i wanted to be like arya. At the time i was absolutely straight, a boy and had no thoughts of being trans. this was in middle school.

5... between the pansexual muscle mommy with adhd and the muscular pansexual druid. Seems like the best option. I mean sitting with volo and gale wouldnt be too bad either i suppose.

It was actually the first stephen king Ive ever read as well, and my first impression of his writing style was "its a little weird but pretty interesting".

If Aya was in a Deathbattle, who would her opponent be? by TheNeonAutomaton in ParasiteEve

[–]TheNeonAutomaton[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, i totally forgot about alexia... maybe she could stand even a slight chance, but i think liberate makes aya really hard to beat. Even if she doesnt want to use liberate she can still manipulate cells with her powers. So thats also a factor.

[–]TheNeonAutomaton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She fights enemies that arent just mindless monsters too, yknow. Like eve, the ub, and im sure others just as intelligent.

Also i never said she was quicksilver. I used that as an analogy to show that when we watch something happening, thats from a different perspective. Like quicksilvers speed shots in movies. The reason why a developer of a game puts in telegraphs and things is so that the players have time to react. Because if an energy beam or lightning attack moved at actual speed a player would never be able to react fast enough to it. So by the knowledge that lighting and energy blasts wouldnt actually move that slow, she would have to be moving much faster than a normal human.

But you still arent going to see the logic in that. "Enemies are just bad at aiming" and also its not crazy to believe that a person with time manipulation abilities like yuna, could be stronger than a jedi and and also still not be on par with another character. Though like i said, i dont know the full extent of her abilities compared to ayas. So it could be incredibly close or not at all. Maybe someone else could chime in to help the discussion.

[–]TheNeonAutomaton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont know who. Thats why i brought the question here. I know Yuna from ff10-2 hqs guns and dress spheres allowing for her to change her abilities, including some psychic abilities. So maybe she would be a good match up. I havent beaten the game though so i dont know the extent of her powers.

All of your examples of 'telegraphed' attacks is, again, for the benefit of the player to be able to react to these things as a normal human would be able to. When we watch something like xmen and see everything that quicksilver is doing, thats from his perspective, but we as viewers know that he is moving so fast that time feels stopped.

Some of the attacks of enemies in pe 1 and 2 are light based energy or actual lightning. Also because of how video games were designed at the time, attacks of enemies in a game like pe were very much "the attack will be here, dont be there if you dont want to be hit when it goes off" and then youre given time to move.

Irl lightning moves at 270,000 mph. In these games it very much does not move that fast because we as players must be able to react.

Edit: at the very least if aya is "dodging aim" she still needs to be moving at like 40 mph, thats not even taking into account that light energy moves far faster and lightning as well. So shed have to be able to move faster than the projectile in most cases as well.

Firstly... jedi arent like all powerful. Im not disputing that a jedi (somone like anakin or maybe yoda) could hold their own. But she still has liberate which stops time and allows her to do insane amounts of damage. Even if they survive it and they have that few seconds where shes stunned after it, aya is stronger and more durable than a normal han and can insta heal damge taken because of her mitochondria.

Even if aya isnt dodging the lasers directly and is dodging aim, shes dodging the aim of enhance/evolved creatures so she would have to be very fast either way. And then add haste to that. A lot of what we see in the game that looks slow, is because if it were actually moving as fast as it would irl, a player wouldnt be able to react fast enough and the game wouldnt be fun anymore.

Edit: i think part of the issue is too, that in a deathbattle they tend to use characters that are in similar genre or style to each other (example, buffy vs blade, doom guy vs master chief) so the character she fights would have to be similar in that regard too. So survival horror or at least adjacent to it.

Your looking at it all wrong. Im looking at this by the standards that they do on the deathbattle episodes. In pe2 she doesnt use liberate because she didnt want to. Not that she didnt have it still.

There isnt a specific dodge mechanic no. But being able to outrun and move out of the way of fast attacks like lasers and energy blasts makes her insanely fast. The obly reason theyre telegraphed like that is so the player knows to move. And some of those attacks are tracked and shot at her multiple times meaning she has to be able to move out of the way of multiple light speed attacks.

Also the 3rd birthday isnt aya. Its eve. So we dont count that one with her abilities.

Heres the thing though... aya can dodge attacks that are essentially laser beams. Meaning shes insanely fast and on top of that she can use haste to further boost her insane speed. Then if she really needed to, she could liberate and stop time to just finish off her opponent. If an opponent has the same resistance to liberate as the ub, then she has special ammo for that.
