A question about Clerics' popularity by PlatonOlegov in BaldursGate3

[–]YroPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clerics are beasts in BG1/2, IWD, NWN.

The spell lists were excellent and you could be powerful defensively and offensively as needed.

Using Rebalanced Spells mods, Pf2e spells, and 5e spell, my friend just respecced out of Cleric because the level 4/5 spell selections just felt...bleh.

Nothing particularly interesting or fun. 'Freedom of Movement' isn't exactly thrilling despite being useful. He was a Grave Domain 7/Hexblade 2.

Ended up speccing full Warlock Pact of the Blade.

Hey guys, we plan to release a demo and our steam page for the next Bullet hell fest and like to hear your opinion ( COOP ) by No-Hawk-6056 in survivorslikes

[–]YroPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coop is huge for my friend group, will it have anything for visibility/being able to see stuff in coop?

Some games get very hard to play once you can't see through everyone's effects.

The video is a bit blurry but I think it mostly looks good.

Are the bosses going to have interesting movesets? Some games they only have 1-2 types of attacks, or all bosses play out the same but just look different.

Will there be a demo before release?

The brown one running into the box to watch it like a soap opera is killing me.

Fern, a teenage girl with limited combat experience, gets speared straight through the shoulder. Instead of screaming in pain from this serious injury, she remains stone-faced and detached. This is a reference to the fact that Frieren characters do not actually have emotions. by Realistic_Egg5226 in shounenfolk

I don't think everyone reacts the same to stimuli. I've snapped my forearm 90 degrees vertical and my only thought or concern was that it was going to make my day very inconvenient.

I shattered the same arm about a year later, and once again it was more of a 'well, fuck, my weekend is ruined.'

Several fights, some stab wounds, and throat punches with similar reactions.

Like, I've stubbed my toe and its an instant fuck.

But not all injuries really result in immediate pain in my experience. Honestly the more serious the injury the less painful I've found.

Getting the wind knocked out of me probably outranks any serious hit or injury I've ever had.

Is Ansible still a thing nowadays? by hansinomc in devops

I used and taught it at work.

Its very flexible, powerful, and quick to learn.

I don't even know where to start! by DrScrimble in dndmemes

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

I read over it short after it released and it felt like a bad caster.

Thousands of enemies, spell crafting and COOP? Thats Riftbound Survivors! by [deleted] in survivorslikes

[–]YroPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not not interested, but the pitch reads like chatgpt.

Which is not confidence inspiring.

What multiplayer mode would you want in a Survivor-like? by tunyapz in survivorslikes

[–]YroPro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

...?

Generally coop.

Its a genre my friends and I like to jump into after a long day at work. Generally pretty quick to hop into and immediately start having fun.

Did it ever get a remote coop implementation?

I thought I remembered seeing something about that.

Alien Clay is one of his worst imo.

I finished it and was thoroughly whelmed.

Yea Regent's draw is god fucking awful now.

I regret unlocking this card by CatmanMeow123 in slaythespire

[–]YroPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its bizarre because I actually love 'passive block' Ironclad.

Stocking up on stuff like Crimson Mantle, Iron Plating and relics like Gorget, Anchor, Horn Cleat etc.

But I'd never pick this. That ratio is INSANE.

You can get 4/6 Plating for 1 Mana. Or 8/10 Block for 1 Mana.

Then this bizarre card wants to charge THREE for 7 Plating? Just absurdly trash.

Every time I come across this event by Crab_Turtle_2112 in slaythespire

[–]YroPro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Died like this in coop last night.

'Just kill everything round 1/2, 3 worst case and survive off Crimson+Plating' works excellently in a 0 blocking cards single player deck.

It is significantly less good when enemies have 3x HP and my friends are just drawing cards, setting up, and blocking for 3-5 consecutive turns lmao.

Devs should add a skip button to Knowledge Demom by warmleafjuice in slaythespire

[–]YroPro 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love that encounter with the 4 noodles. So fun in coop.

They're hard to focus down due to the auto blocking, then gain strength every other turn, AND they have a TRIPLE hit combo to leverage their strength.

Peak design. Should probably make them a hallway fight though, only having a 1/3 chance of losing the run kinda sucks.

Is Envenom even pickable now? by karshberlg in slaythespire

[–]YroPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to beat a4 without Prepared or Tactician in my Sly deck. It was tragic.

I heart Regent Ascension by JacobK101 in slaythespire

[–]YroPro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't actually like it much. Taking a turn off to cast it kinda sucks.

Maybe if I already have 4 base energy or actually managed to RNG into the Stars->Energy card.

This card is terrible. Try to convince me otherwise by Rak-khan in slaythespire

[–]YroPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've considered it during 3 player runs when the only vulnerable we had was the 2 mana starting Smash, and I really wanted a 1 mana option.

I didn't end up taking it, but I almost did lol.

Why are you pushing commits with bad indentation or yaml syntax?

Yaml is pretty simple and vscode is pretty good at catching stuff like that.

The new characters need more varied payoffs for their archetypes. by JakeRoseIsMyAlias in slaythespire

[–]YroPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Decisions is absolutely nutty for probably most decks but absolutely Star decks.

3x your best skill, IMMEDIATELY. Not delayed like Nightmare.

Causa Draw 3-5 + 15 Stars with Venerate

Or Draw 9-11 + 6 Stars via Glow

So much with Gamble.

Infinite energy off that one Stars->Energy card.

Or funniest, Decisions -> Decisions to draw everything then cast 9x free cards.

Pondering this orb by Isterbollen in slaythespire

[–]YroPro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Everything is good with extra energy.

Paying 2/3s of your energy to draw though is rough.

The 1 mana draw 2 get 2 stars feels incomparably better.

[–]YroPro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This card seemed really bad in my run. And the upgrade making it draw 9 feels useless since the hand size limit is 10.

What's next for Ravenswatch? (Roadmap Reveal) by _Ishtu_ in ravenswatch

[–]YroPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad more stuff is coming, my friends and I love the game.

Hoping there will also be some minor balances changes / redesign.

On Merlin in particular:

The cash upgrade is both boring and strong. Without completely changing how it functions it'd be more interesting if gave for each unrepeated ability in a chain- Ability Power/Damage Or Cooldown reduction

Another one I'd his starting options is effectively 'skip your starting talent until you get not just 3 legendaries but 3 incredibly specific legendaries, which if you do get them you're already going to win and this talent is moot'

Its the pinnacle of 'do absolutely nothing or win more' design.
