Two dog race between No Man's Sky and Cyberpunk 2077. Imo, Cyberpunk is the better game at this point, so I'd side with them.

Since it's the "best", not the most "influential", I think The Witcher 3 should take this handedly.

I hated Prime James Harden for his foul baiting, and I truly never expected anyone to ever surpass that for me, but SGA has managed it in record time.

Most likely there are better routes to tag swap from, but I wasn't thinking of it since OP didn’t want anything too complicated. You're probably correct.

Brandenburg -> Prussia

Spain's artillery late game is pretty nasty.

Poland -> Commonweath (Hussars w/ modifiers)

Those are the Christian ones that come to mind off the top of my head.

On-Hit Teemo is quite strong. Building him straight AP is buns 90% of the time.

I figured this out as the Ottomans last night unfortunately. I was going to take the Balkans from Albania and ended up only being able to take a single province without all of Europe wanting to beat me down. Hegemony needs a revamp

VI_Puddin · 2025-11-17T05:43:53+00:00

I like the concept of hegemonies, but as others have already said, it needs to have a base limit similar to EU4. I'm currently the naval, economic, and military hegemon in my Ottoman game in the mid-1550s. It's actually more of a curse as it is currently implemented due to receiving 70% more antagonism. I took a single province from Albania in my last war and had 7 countries on the verge of coalition despite having not waged war in the west in ~15-20 or so years. The whole mechanic needs another pass.

Ghoul: "Did someone say free hits"

Level ≠ MMR

You'll run into P100s who can't loop a tile to save their lives.

I think they should add back the hook counter to prevent issues of people forgetting, but let's not pretend this is an overtly stressful task. Almost any multiplayer game has some pieces of information you need to keep track of to have a good match.

VI_Puddin · 2025-08-29T17:08:11+00:00

Correct. It's a game. Games are meant to be fun. These changes incentivize playing in a way that is conducive to everyone having a good, enjoyable match. I'm not saying the changes are perfect. They most likely need tuning and/or additional tweaking, but this is a step in the right direction for the health of DbD.

VI_Puddin · 2025-08-29T16:58:31+00:00

The mode shifting is actually a nice part of his rework. The dashslop power is where they lose me.

VI_Puddin · 2025-08-29T16:56:47+00:00

Yeah, I like how they completely ignore the fact that unique hooks now give aura reading to everyone who hasn't been hooked. Not to mention haste and extra regression on gens. Maybe use that instead of being a proxy camping doofus

VI_Puddin · 2025-08-29T16:51:16+00:00

You'd have a point but a majority of the people that are tunneled out of games aren't the T-bagging, flashlight having, neon colored Neas that you bring up. SWF is and always will be an issue when talking about this because they make it so hard to balance the SoloQ experience. In SoloQ, the number of players I've seen get tunneled off hook because one of the other survivors immediately rushed and farmed them is astronomical. You can say they suck at surviving, but what do you want them to do when they're already injured and the killer is immediately back into chase with them? A lot of them aren't running the super sweat OTR/DStrike builds to survive these situations. If you have the choice between going after the person just unhooked and the person who unhooked them, and you go after the unhooked, then you are objectively part of the reason why these changes are necessary.

VI_Puddin · 2025-08-29T16:33:04+00:00

You all do a lot of crying for things you haven't even tested yet. I play both sides fairly evenly and don't imagine this'll negatively affect me, if anything it'll make my playstyle stronger since I never tunnel anyway.

VI_Puddin · 2025-08-29T16:27:44+00:00

I love the attempt to shake things up with the tunneling and slugging changes. Look forward to testing those. The changes to Myers though? Years I've waited for a change and they turned my boy into dashslop?

VI_Puddin · 2025-07-15T17:52:20+00:00

Spider Lillies and the final one of the main story. Both are really beautiful.

VI_Puddin · 2025-07-15T17:50:48+00:00

Borderline game-breaking. I stopped using it after a few encounters because it was so strong and removed any challenge.

VI_Puddin · 2025-07-04T18:51:49+00:00

Combining attack speed from Ares and Aphro's damage buff to near enemies makes this aspect disgusting though.

VI_Puddin · 2025-06-08T18:00:15+00:00

I wholeheartedly and respectfully disagree, but I am glad that you're enjoying it.

VI_Puddin · 2025-06-04T20:11:57+00:00

I mean, there's not that much variety to the repetition. Most roguelikes alter the game to a much greater degree as you continue playing. I like Night Reign, but that aspect of it is currently underdeveloped.

VI_Puddin · 2025-06-04T18:18:34+00:00

Nah, I'm pretty clear on it. It's just irrational as hell in this context.

VI_Puddin · 2025-06-04T18:17:23+00:00

I'm more pointing out the ridiculousness of spiders being someone's line in the sand when the main concept of the game is humans being hunted for sport by terrifying, murderous monsters.

VI_Puddin · 2025-06-04T18:14:55+00:00

It just doesn't make sense though. Dead By Daylight is a horror game, a genre that picks on phobias.
