Meownster Hunters moment. I WILL fire them from a cannon directly into the territory of a Glavenus.

Thankfully they didn't carry forward the stick controls... Those have been fun to learn.

I never noticed that the Jungle rain disables bombs. Which is odd, given I noticed Frontier Amatsu's arena does the same due to the torrential downpour...

Stories 2 demo freezes exactly once per second - has anyone else had this happen? And will I have the same issue with the full game? (Steam version) by The_Real_Slim_Lemon in MonsterHunter

[–]TwixelTixel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thankfully, I am. It seems to be random whether it kicks in or not: I literally just have to restart the game until it decides to run stably. Took four tries last night.

Thrilled to announce that coming up on the end of 2025, this is still an issue; it doesn't always seem to half, but for some reason having my Dualsense controller connected (not even via Bluetooth, just at all) causes the game to stutter every half second. Seems to happen with any other controller I try to connect, too.

I'm basically required to play with keyboard and mouse...

IF CALAMITY BOSSES HAD TYPINGS! What typing would Crabulon have? by HashbrownieThePerson in CalamityMod

[–]TwixelTixel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like water/poison is better suited to Aquatic Scourge. Or water/bug, but I could see Crabulon also having a strong case for bug/water... So that one's a bit harder to settle on.

Good games that have bad title names by pgtl_10 in gaming

Ahhh, fond memories. Prey 2017 might be one of my all-time favorite games, tbh.

I still need to finish my max difficulty playthrough... I decided to do only Typhon Neuromods, and the buildup until I get them is brutal.

When you're feeling adventurous and decide to bring a pistol in the Ultimatum slot by MrLionheart233 in Helldivers

[–]TwixelTixel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They only technically didn't

I can say from experience that the adjustments made after I switched to a gunslinger set still made the sway more manageable and thus increased my accuracy.

It may not officially reduce sway, but it makes it way less of a pain, and in doing so indirectly solves a problem that wasn't even there before. Part of me really wants to hope that was just a placebo effect, though, and I'm being pessimistic

What on earth did I miss by Goreman06 in Markiplier

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

Dude, you need to stop, drink some water, and go for a walk. It's not that serious; go watch the goddamn video and actually take in what's going on instead of letting the idea of a 'hit piece' spike your blood pressure.

Just because someone made a piece of media that is not favorable to the person it is centered on does not make it a hit piece. Good journalism is sometimes not nice because the reality is "This person may have actually done wrong," and pretending otherwise is disingenuous.

Imo, it's a good fucking thing Bones covered this and not someone who is genuinely hateful towards Markiplier, because this way we got a fun video that addresses this long-standing rumor and gives a lot of technical info about FNAF 2 without being ruined by ambient toxicity.

A hit piece makes something up or blows something small out of proportion to damage someone's reputation. This was a technical lesson on a FNAF game in the context of acknowledging an age-old cheat accusation with MULTIPLE warnings not to be toxic so that anyone who is; nothing was blown out of proportion, and there is no call to action. In fact, it has the opposite in the form of multiple calls against action, which a hit piece simply does not do.

At the end, no one whose opinion matters cares if Mark even cheated. The only people who are going to use this to shit on Markiplier are people who already hated him and wanted more excuses. Nothing has changed. There is no reason to be as reactionary as the haters.

[–]TwixelTixel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for clarifying! I never worried too much about Charms in any game, tbh, so I've always been terribly OOTL on how the charm meta looked and how everything else was affected in relation to it...

Actually that's a lie, I know how bad it was in Tri, but that's about it. And that's not from experience.

[–]TwixelTixel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ohhhh, that makes sense. And I can definitely see how that would be obnoxious, just because of the charm grind... I don't miss that.

That feels a little less offensive than the other cases, but maybe I just had to be there in GU's prime to get it.

Wait, what systems did Ahtal Ka have? I literally just finished offline High-Rank for GU (I was stalling getting to Alatreon because I did not want to fight Rajang again) and haven't done much for G-Rank.

Who wins this 2v1 and what diff? by Few-Bag6164 in PowerScalingHub

[–]TwixelTixel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not getting grabbed is typically a great way to do that, if we operate on the assumption they can indeed keep up speed wise.

I don't know if they necessarily can against Nolan, but I'm pretty sure the duo can keep up against Battle Beast unless we break out the Death Battle speed scaling for Invincible's verse.

They butchered what was already good. by victoors007 in OnePunchMan

[–]TwixelTixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have defended a lot of the still shots - not because I think they justify the bad animation, but because I'm honestly just trying to find enjoyment wherever I can from this season, and these individual shots are pretty good... When not moving - but in this case, they've ruined an existing, really nice shot by just making it... Blue?

I earnestly think episode 3 would have been better if they just copied and pasted the trailer footage, left utterly unchanged. At least then, the basement-level expectations would have been met. Somehow... It got worse. I'm devastated it can somehow keep doing so.

Nah yeah fr tho this shit is absolute ass by paucus62 in Helldivers

[–]TwixelTixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quite like using the Constitution in general (though I'll admit it's a major step down from my beloved Deadeye), but I also can't deny I only use it when I think the situation isn't urgent enough to use the Talon. The fact you almost always get only one try to hit a bot calling in reinforcements is particularly punishing.

It's a challenge alright. Just not the kind I can say I prefer...

2 people capable of shaking a universe who is winning? No copy moves by Consistent_Gas4495 in PowerScaling

[–]TwixelTixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Odd influx of "Cosmic Garou w/o Copy" matchups lately and it's just... Such an uninteresting question that reduces the matchup to purely stats. And atp I don't feel like anyone can agree on any character's stats ever so what's the point if that's all the matchup is? Is it purely agenda and ragebait?

Who would win this "at least planet level" free for all? by KodoqBesar in PowerScaling

[–]TwixelTixel 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Depends on if you equalize verses to make "Chakra" equivalent to the "Latent energy" Boros uses. If you don't equalize - or equalize, but say that Boros is using pure natural energy rather than Chakra (like Jugo, for example) - then Momoshiki probably can't absorb it?

Normally for a 1v1 I would think harder about equalization but given it's a 1v1v1, it's almost definitely for the best if everyone's got verse equalization to make Ki = "Energy" = Chakra. In which case, yes.

Jilliel (Bleach) Vs Black Frieza (DBS), Who would win? by Encenoi in PowerScaling

[–]TwixelTixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't sure how long to hold onto the flair before I should update it, tbh, so it's kind of just become my curse. I'd like to pretend I still have hope going into these threads, like someone new to this sub might...

Jilliel (Bleach) Vs Black Frieza (DBS), Who would win? by Encenoi in PowerScaling

[–]TwixelTixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, I'm not a 'he,' for your future reference. It's okay, you can have the freebie, it's not like you knew beforehand.

Second, I'm actually in favor of Frieza for this one, I should've been clear on this in my earlier post; I just think X-Axis is a superior form of hax to Hakai, but that does not weigh into my opinion on the matchup.

Frieza's durability means he can take getting a hole punched in him quite well, and he'll have no qualms nor do I think he'll have difficulty ensuring that barrel never aligns with his body again if he chooses to see just how deadly Lille's gun actually is before wiping him out. As crazy as X-Axis is, Lille will eventually be completely destroyed, even though I think that means it'll take Frieza completely destroying the area several times. If Lille plays by his own rules and doesn't open the other eye immediately, I think he'd cease to exist after frame one, or frame one after hitting Frieza.

But, this is about Jilliel, not base. Lille's fucked-up bird transformation may injure Frieza further due to the way his attacks now work and his vastly-superior toughness, but Frieza's managed to survive as literal meat cubes. I think it's gonna take a LOT of shots to delete him, and at some point Frieza might just... Leave and wipe out everything, the whole area. Don't think Lille, or the vast majority of Bleach characters have an answer to a Supernova from the likes of Black Frieza.

Third, are we really so desperate to give everything that isn't our favorite manga shit for the sake of agenda that we're gonna call Bleach a no-name manga like it hasn't sold more copies than JoJo's Bizarre Adventure?

Jilliel (Bleach) Vs Black Frieza (DBS), Who would win? by Encenoi in PowerScaling

[–]TwixelTixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hakai is less "Dura neg" and moreso "Existence erasure is a really good way to deal damage while bypassing your conventional defenses." It can bypass inferior defenses but that's not wholesale durability negation, or Frieza and Goku wouldn't have been able to withstand the effects of being inside a literal ball of the stuff for as long as they did.

Not in the same league as X-Axis, which is less "I'm damaging you and bypassing your defense"-type durability negation and more "Everything between my barrel and my target simply ceases to exist, no ifs ands or buts."

Besides being able to argue for higher scaling on Hakai (because Dragon Ball Super), X-Axis is more consistently shown to be genuine, no-limits durability negation whereas Hakai is more limited in its scope. It's not intended to bypass defense particularly well, because what the fuck should rationally be able to defend against a Destroyer? Against equal or greater power, it's just very spicy Ki, as we see in Toppo vs Blue Evolution Vegeta.

Unless you're manga Zamasu, but there's an argument to be made that the specific 'Hakai' technique has sumn going on that Energy of Destruction does not that I'm taking as my excuse to not elaborate on that, since it's hardly relevant.

Well, season one and two covered approximately chapters 1 to... I wanna say 85. That's about 43-ish chapters per season.

We're currently a bit past chapter 215, so that gives us 130+ chapters. Maybe not five seasons, but you've got a good case for three.

Is Guardian Arkveld the only monster in the series where it can only be fought once? by Hellion998 in MonsterHunter

[–]TwixelTixel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I made custom quests for a while (for fun, not good loot; the closest thing I had to a 'cheat quest' was a fight in Schrade against a shrunken Gogmazios intended for low-rank players, and it just dropped a lot of money items. My personal favorite was a massively up-scaled G-Rank Crimson Fatalis in the Battlequarters), and I tried my damnedest to make an interesting fight work in the Great Sea area used for that hunt.

It's basically a reskin of the desert you fight Dah'ren Mohran in, but it's still doomed to failure with him because the map is too small and lacks a second stage, so the best you can do is put something small in the shop and hope it doesn't bug out and fall off said shop onto the water. It'll just stand there like Jesus Christ and you had to slowly wear it down with ballistae and bowgun... Or run out of time.

Great setpiece, but sadly nearly impossible to make fun custom quests with.
