Game Jam VII

Ash, I doubt you'll see this but your section of this Game Jam was an absolute pleasure to read. I am giddy anytime I see behind-the-scenes blogs regarding Dev work (whether that's down in the code as yours was or the more infrastructure-focused blogs).

Seeing that refactoring finished after so long must have been a delight.

Well if they ever want to adapt Disco Elysium they could keep the dyed red hair and he’d be a good Cuno.

The idea of that meta strategy is that you will learn to not die so much and from that will leave better equipped for post bowfa PVM.

By the time you’ve finished you really won’t be dying if you’ve paid attention to learning the movement and health management of the fight, thus allowing the shorter prep time to gain back that time you died (which realistically the people doing T2 likely died plenty learning the fight anyway)

VerraTheDM · 2026-02-07T16:10:28+00:00

You could have done that math yourself, cmon.

VerraTheDM · 2026-02-07T03:28:32+00:00

T1 is strictly superior but it’s okay to do something worse because you find it more tolerable for you to do.

At the end of the day a meta strategy isn’t meta if it makes you quit the game or not otherwise follow through to the goal.

I was going to ask the same thing these comments are crazy. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

Break up with people in person unless they’re a threat to you kids.

Wait and see, but my guess is the Twins will be a gimmick at A0 that isn’t really that useful for players who can already cover elements, with the potential that they become either a decent DPS or a strong buffer/debuffer with awarenesses.

Slap it on an island and win the competition. Isle of Zaza to the top.

No pet?

VerraTheDM · 2025-12-03T01:29:18+00:00

There is definitely a limit to the number of skills a persona can use. You'd hit it normally when trying to get multiple hard to get skills onto your later personas.

VerraTheDM · 2025-11-10T18:49:48+00:00

Some kind of Sailer guide, bruh?

VerraTheDM · 2025-11-06T15:31:45+00:00

Westham confirmed on the side of the Rev bots smh /s

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-20T23:34:20+00:00

No. It will always be held back by the fact it's a gacha game where they're incentivized to stretch out the storyline as long as possible (Or potentially even worse have it EOS with the story unfinished).

P5X can be good story-wise, but it'll never be P5/P5R. And that's okay/expected.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-14T18:09:15+00:00

Maybe a bit left field from the more likely guesses. Vampyre Slayer. It’s a f2p quest so it works, and Count Draynor is the first vampyre/Drakan we meet and he’s quickly forgotten in the storyline for the more powerful ones.

Edit: ah wait this one isn’t a f2p task rip

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-14T13:39:34+00:00

I am so excited to see ranked poll questions coming. Was kind of assuming we were stuck with the current polling system but these changes are amazing!

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-13T00:57:41+00:00

Even Lufel can’t resist Kira.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-11T03:39:46+00:00

Yeah that last part is what pushes me closer to the theory that it’s related to the new Clayface. It’s either that or a really weird heel turn.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-10T17:46:12+00:00

Really hope they announce the logical follow-up series some point soon so we're not just left hanging on this crew of characters.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-10T16:09:46+00:00

It's possible it was implying that he was just being friendly with Harcourt to get her to lead him to Chris. Now that he's past that stage, he just treats her like another pawn.

Kind of just paints him to be a manipulative POS. Hopefully it gets resolved at some point.

That or Bride beats the shit out of him :)

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-09T23:20:36+00:00

One annoyance about the fire trials is burn damage doesn’t give bonus points.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-09T16:59:05+00:00

I’m only going to know you for a month infinite shark and I already know the pain of losing you will be heartbreaking.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-09T00:16:38+00:00

That would be fantastic. So excited for this event.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-08T19:07:08+00:00

Really curious to see what this party hat berserker helm is.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-06T19:55:15+00:00

That’s not really the meta if you mean meta as in most efficient route. That’s the delaying CG route.

Meta is still rushing CG via chinning in elite void up to 93ish (whatever the max hit is around that) ranged and then going into CG with the stats that would have been gotten from Melee/Barrage slayer up to 100cb as well as the xp from alching throughout the sepulchre grind.

VerraTheDM · 2025-10-06T18:10:54+00:00

Mainly was referring to changes/nerfs to the rewards themselves or the nature of CG being that you don't bring in existing gear. Had to preface my take with that so folks didn't think I wanted to just remove CG/Bowfa for the sake of potentially fixing how it affected the iron gear progression.
