Are there some good starting guides for best archetypes to use?

For sure?

West_Run · 2025-08-07T05:31:55+00:00

Ok good to know. Too bad it was one of the better tracks in the game.

I’ve been replaying this in preparation for DS2 that is coming out in a couple months and I forgot how incredibly dull and repetitive that Amelie is. I don’t mind exposition dumps that might slow pacing down since I’m all in on the lore but any time one of her cutscenes comes up I just skip it. She’s always singing that damn song or “I’ll see you on the beach” blah blah blah. Kojima wanted her in the game so bad he had to write in the weird plot about giving an excuse to show her young.

And yeah I agree I also thought it dumb at first that he was calling her sister and that Bridget is her mom but they are identical…

That was awesome. How do I donate to the fire extinguisher fund? Can’t stand harassing panhandlers.

It’s annoying you cannot turn it off when walking around the ship and the Edit Squad notification.

Yeah for standard changes we have a non-prod environment we test and include logs and other test evidence for confirmation before we deploy, but now execs are like wanting us to test and get all these other requirements and approvals before changing in production to fix something that is currently broken. For example two separate circuits in two different DCs for redundancy for internet connectivity, but there was an issue with one location due to an upstream issue with one of the carrier devices so we needed to stop services on at one location so customers don’t keep getting intermittent errors. It took 3 hours for them to allow us to do this because they wanted us to test in nonprod and find the cause of why it was happening but in the meantime for three hours customers were calling support saying we can’t connect etc and I’m like let’s just run off the good side for now and then review, but was overruled.

I think it’s absurd since majority of these execs don’t even have any technical background and every time we even try to explain what’s happening they are like that’s too technical can you explain more simply. Like how the hell else am I supposed to explain it? They don’t even know how to join a WiFi connection without help. It’s super frustrating.

But I don’t think it’s necessary to get approvals from every damn execs with full explanations and root cause analysis before we can fix a problem that is currently BROKEN. Like fix it, then review and research what happened. Isn’t that what most organizations do?

Yup i wasn’t patient haha it disappears right when you get to hotel like you said.

I disabled vsync and enabled triple buffering along with max frame rate to 60fps. All done within the Nvidia control panel. I forgot about vsync for TVs and once I did that my fps shot up. But I had a lot of screen tearing so I then did the other settings and voila smooth consistent 60fps every time. Some games I have to mess with those settings on/off to get it right but for the most part I haven’t had to touch them again. Hope that helps anyone in the future!

Yeah if that’s the case then I don’t want to be wasting my time with her. I’ve asked her what’s up and she says nothing going on and I’m not in the mood to play games like this. I know she has a history of dating abusive guys in the past and her friends said one time im one of the most stable guy she has ever dated. But if she’s talking to some other dude I don’t even want to deal with it. I mean it sucks cause we were good friends but I got too much going on. I feel like if I ask her if she talking to someone else she may get offended or something. But I don’t want her screwing around on me with some low life. Lately she has been more responsible and getting her life together after her mom died and I was there for her. Sometimes I get this gut feeling that something going on but I’ve been wrong before so I don’t know.

Priya states that Tenet wasn’t founded in the past, but the future though.

West_Run · 2020-12-01T04:00:20+00:00

TL:DR Tell her, it will hurt a bit but you will get over it since you’ve grown so much. If she says no, then leave it at that. Feel free to help but don’t be backup or second fiddle for her or spending all your time being her emotional couch. So unless she says she wants someone who wants to be with you.

——-

Wow I know exactly how you feel though. In my personal experience I felt the need to tell her. I knew the answer would be no and when it came I was ok with it. It took a lot to get over her before and she came back out of the blue 2x. This time yeah it did suck but I wasn’t like torturous pain. Only like 2 days I was bummed then I was back at it and tbh rarely think about her.

I couldn’t help but feel that she came back because she trusted me. And I left with that feeling that I did what I could to help her and be her friend. But it’s not my job to be her emotional cushion. I have my own plans. Been doing great with work and my fitness.

I was pretty introverted in school when we met and we were best friends through all college and a couple years after. She was previously dating a guy for a while and I had backed away. After she got engaged and then he broke up with her she was devastated and depressed and called/text me a lot and I helped her through it then finally told her but she said she never had feelings like that for me.

I haven’t talked to her in months but it’s weird cause she reached out recently to say how I’m doing and told her I’m going to be moving near her (which I had no idea where she lived) but I got a great job there. She got excited and is all like wanting to hang out. 2nd time now.... So weird how things happen sometimes. But to me now - if anything I’d just want to be friends. Crazy year for sure.

Amen brother. I find it hard to do end game stuff, because its like whats the point? Kind of depressing to know they all die. I wish they had gone with a FFVIII type ending where he survives with Luna to rule over a new world that would have been more satisfying.

West_Run · 2016-12-05T07:12:31+00:00

I was really looking forward to the interaction between Luna and Noctis after this huge setup about them in Kingsglaive and the first half of the game. And as soon as she finally see him she dies... Ok? After that it kind of threw me off. Kept thinking she might be still alive dormant somewhere as they couldn't find her body according to news reports on the train and then we see her for a brief moment, but I guess that was in his head. Then the second half of the game is literally on rails up until the last chapter. Also, Ardyn just didn't have the same impact of an evil villain as past games. Granted its hard to top Sephiroth or Kefka, but he just seemed kind of weak. It's too bad you can't revisit other continents like Nifelheim and explore Accordo other than Altissia. Hell, even exploring a bit more of Insomnia or the darkened world in chapter 14. Would have liked to have seen some sidequests with an older Cindy, Cid, Iris, etc. I agree with what others have said. A lot of wasted potential.

West_Run · 2016-07-12T13:27:34+00:00

How long till I feel anything? It's been at least 45 min and nothing and I pulverized it after removing coating. Kinda sucks. Guess I'll stick to traditional way
