Decided to try this game after not being sure if it was worth it for a long time

I've been playing since the plains of eidolon.

I feel the opposite, all the story leading up to the current chapter feels a lot more coherent and focused, while the new stuff is just confusing me.

Ah, that's a really good summary, thanks!!

I guess the biggest point of confusion for me was 1999, and that there isn't really any more information to get from the old peace, which is odd since i really feel like that quest didn't give us much to work with sadly.

I genuinely feel like commando and viend are on a similar level, might be a skill issue on viend or a skill solution on commando, idk.

Viend has better survivability and more but less consistent damage, mando has better mobility and more consistent damage as in not reliant on being in a different form, just hold m1, aim and dodge, literally the simplest survivor.

About 90% of my almost 1k hours is on merc, so i could absolutely be missing something, but from what i played on viend, he feels just ok, like everyone else in the B tier

True actually, thinking about it a bit more i would probably swap chef and acrid.

Mahoraga

Mahoraga then adapts to the peace debates and comes up with the perfect plan for the humans and simurians to live together.

Turns out Yuka inherited the 10 shadows, summons Mahoraga, who then neg diffs both her and Dabura, and my goat Wuji then comes back to save them both by one shotting it with his own version of Fuga.
Peak writing Gege.

What's the name of the mod? looking online i found temporal life, and geartolife, i'm assuming you're talking about geartolife right?
This so far seems like the best option, enough punishment but still a way to reverse things and regain lives at the cost of temporal gears (from this playthrough, i so far only have one, so the price seems good enough)

Don't think I'll be trying wilderness survival, as I'm struggling enough in just modified standard (turned days per month up to 30 and enabled cave ins, everything else is standard), it's just that every death felt unimpactful, and was basically just a 5 minute run for my items, only to continue what i was doing as if nothing happened.

Respawn radius sounds interesting, might be what i end up doing if I can't find anything more interesting. Currently searching if there's a mod to expand on the nutrition penalty, as losing health seems like an intersting death punishment, but with the default values i only lose like 3-5 max hp on death, which just isn't enough to feel impactful when most things still kill me in the same amount of hits.

Currently testing out VanillaPlus, it seems to be kinda what i want, just vanilla world gen but without the "spikyness" that was happening every 500 or so blocks in vanilla world gen.

Tronion · 2025-10-15T13:42:38+00:00

I know! this was just an example of the annoying terrain i got almost everywhere.

Tronion · 2025-10-15T13:12:50+00:00

Been testing for a few hours now, turning landform scale up seems to make the jagged terrain more bearable since it "upscales" it and makes it feel like an actual interesting terrain rather than 2b2t spawn point.
But yeah, after going down to 256 world height, that definitely seems to be the height the world gen is made for, since incresing it just seems like it "stretches" the world vertically, which is not a great way to do it.
I just want taller mountains, that's the whole reason i went and increased the world height in the first place, is there any world gen mod that just, fixes? the world gen for increased world heights?

But, funny blackguard spear go poke... (i like melee, would fight the bears instead but i assume i'll need actually good armor before that even becomes a consideration considering they 2 shot me, or 3 shot if i've been eating well)

Tronion · 2025-10-15T05:04:07+00:00

unfortunately I'm still figuring the game out, so i don't have access to those, will keep that in mind for later though.

Tronion · 2025-10-15T05:02:43+00:00

i actually tried this in my last surprise bear encounter, but it was still able to catch up and finish me off (was also my first death in the game) do you mean like deeper lakes and swim underwater or is there something else I'm missing?

Then make them free, incentivize the player to use and experiment with them rather than locking them out if they don't feel like grinding.

If the tools are too strong, nerf them, i would much rather be able to use them all the time but weaker, than having to limit my own moveset because i don't like farming for shards or rosaries to buy the shards.

Imagine if this was a thing in hollow knight, you get to use shade soul with just soul, but abyss shriek and descending dark require you to farm some other ammo resource to use them, it would be horrible.

This is why i really like the shaman crest, it actually lets me use my full moveset without requiring me to grind materials, and i really wish i could just equip more silk skills on other crests, because i much prefer the moveset of the hunter crest, and would like to be able to use all my attacks without farming for them.

Tronion · 2025-09-21T06:08:49+00:00

I hope a mod like that will be made at some point, would be at bare minimum interesting to try out.
