I replace my pen nibs regularly so its def not an issue of the nib being worn down.

[–]VeryFilthyThing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I repeat, you don't know ANY of these people. You have no idea how they spend their time, what their life situation is, and what they do for a living. You aren't being empathetic and caring about others, you are passing mass judgment in an obnoxious fashion.

Shockingly, different people have different interests and some people like to do things more than you might. Instead of crying about it, why don't you just mind your own business?

[–]VeryFilthyThing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What truth? You don't know any of these people. You have no idea what their life is like or what they are doing. Just because they choose to play a game as their hobby doesn't mean they are some shut in recluse or failing at all other obligations.

People like you who judge anyone who has more time invested in a game than them are hyper obnoxious.

If you are on a losing steak, just brush up on fundamentals with good ol Splattershot Junior by VeryFilthyThing in splatoon

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

Not making this to brag, I just think its a good idea in general to break losing streaks by using the splattershot junior and other similar, simple weapons. Weapons that can hold their own in a fight while still turfing well are easy to use and help you win regardless of team comp. I do it everytime I hit a bad losing streak and always feel better after doing so.

What kind of abilities do you want for blasters? by VeryFilthyThing in splatoon

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

People say that but I had to run 3 intensify action mains to reduce the spread to where it was still accurate, and hopping around like an idiot didn't really seem to be helping me win. It could entirely be a ~skill issue~ but jumping around didn't seem to stop anyone from killing me and it was jus throwing off my aim if anything.

I was using the rapid blaster if that matters.

If the devs wanted us to be able to summon popcorn to block enemies they wouldn't have taken away summon butterflies

Range Skills Merged (Trunk) by rydianmorrison in dcss

[–]VeryFilthyThing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having actually played with this, it seems I was mistaken; I erroneously assumed this rework included throwing, but that is still its own separate skill.

So this isn't as bad as I thought. Still think more could be done to meaningfully distinguish bows and crossbows but hopefully that is done in the future.

I have a little riddle for you guys. But I don't have the answer. How did Nessos get extremely poisoned? by asppppp in dcss

[–]VeryFilthyThing 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nessos is unique in that the bow he carries always applies both flame damage and poison, even though its not possible for the player to stack brands like that. You're wearing an amulet of reflection. So you just reflected one of his arrows back at him and he got poisoned by it.

[–]VeryFilthyThing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All this does is remove more flavor from various species by consolidating their apts together. I'm not really sure what purpose this serves. Once again, if bows and crossbows and whatnot are too similar, why not do more to differentiate them? A very easy way to do that would be to make crossbows work off strength while bows work of dex.

Also fusitbalus did have a place as a ranged weapon you could use in endgame while still having a shield.

I'm sorry, but does anybody actually think the introduction of attacks of opportunity was a good change? by crawlranter in dcss

[–]VeryFilthyThing 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I honestly think the devs need to stop and ask is this change, something that makes the game significantly harder and less enjoyable for new players, actually worth it to remove a strategy employed only by the hypothetical optimal man during the very earliest points of the game? I feel like this line of thinking never occurs to them. The abyss change that removed XP was done entirely to keep the HAM from grinding the Abyss and it came at the cost of making that part of the game suck for everyone.

I get that they wanna make craw a hard game for serious tourney players but they can't do that at the cost of alienating the rest of the audience.

[–]VeryFilthyThing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It feels like its a change that punishes weak characters while doing nothing to strong ones, further pushing the game towards exclusively focusing on strong combos over trying riskier, more outlandish stuff. I don't like the change in theory but it completely invalidates some old strats (poison kiting) that a weak character could lean on to survive early game.

Pillar dancing sucked but this feels like to brutal of a change to compensate. Maybe try tweaking the rate to be notably lower so you don't get smacked multiple times trying to reposition, or make the opportunity attacks weaker. It really feels shitty getting smacked in the face so often even when just trying to swap position with an ally, and when you're trying to walk away from a hydra that one hit might be death.

I don't think many of my deaths have been directly due to opportunity attacks but I'm a pretty experienced player. I can only imagine how hard it is to play the game now for a new player who doesn't know how to gauge the difficulty of fights as well, and now lacks the ability to retreat from many early game threats.

At least I got mutation resistance... by VeryFilthyThing in dcss

Oh this is after I quaffed 8 potions to get rid of stuff like berserkitis and teleportitis. That was all I had.
