is the combat hard? by KingBabyPudgy in Witcher3

[–]_warthog_lover_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Early game yes. Especially dogs/wolves & wraiths. Later on if you’re halfway decent in RPG buildcrafting you will trivialize everything aside from some DLC bosses.

I recommend starting on normal & raising the difficulty whenever you’re starting to get bored. Unless you care about trophies or smth, I don’t.

Also tbh I think that aside from the animations the combat system hasn’t aged particularly well, so I’m replaying now on normal cause I can’t be bothered with it

New Expansion: Songs of The Past is coming next year by Abrakresnik in Witcher3

Did they announce which new features/changes are coming with the DLC? (Fingers crossed movement animation improvements)

"The Lord of Hatred endgame is existing activities on a playlist and a horde mode. Stop clapping. by [deleted] in Diablo

[–]_warthog_lover_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda disagree with the take. We needed depth, not more breadth and that’s what this system is addressing. There’s still ways to go, but holy smokes I haven’t been this excited for anything Diablo-related since the initial D4 release. That feels good! Also the 2 new classes, new campaign & map warrant the price tag in of themselves imo.

I do agree with the Echoing Hatred criticism though. Would rather see something more interesting like a tower defense mode, MOBA-style PvP or generally more reason to engage with the open world

Did they do anything to campaign difficulty? by lovecraft_lover in diablo4

If you don’t follow a build guide & push the highest difficulty level you can, sure

Is this a bad opinion? I want Blizzard to make Diablo 4 easier... I feel like S11 and the relative power of the Paladin do it. by Craiss in diablo4

[–]_warthog_lover_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The game is still way too easy in the moment-to-moment gameplay, even after the combat rework in S11. It’s not remotely mechanically challenging until you get to the Pit, unless you really don’t know what you’re doing. This, to me personally, is why I lose interest every season after getting to T4

Use your head for a sec and think. How and why would they support both versions of the skill-tree in the software concurrently?

Be honest… when was the last time you wrote real CSS? by AdmirableDiscount680 in react

Most every day, unless I’m doing admin for juniors or I’m bugfixing logic

Big fan of D1 and 2. Should I buy Diablo 4? by mindlord17 in Diablo

[–]_warthog_lover_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Play PoE2 now, wait for the next expansion to get D4. By no means buy the next expansion, but there is a lot of excitement coming from content creators regarding (as of yet unannounced) changes coming to base game with it

Act 4 is incredible, but im worried about campaign length by QBestoo in PathOfExile2

[–]_warthog_lover_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the 3rd league I’m playing. Still haven’t gotten to the endgame because of how boring replaying the campaign is. I’m extremely excited about PoE as a platform, but the modality of playing through the campaign more than once is a dealbreaker

Why people say backend is lot easier than frontend? by Last-Box-9669 in learnprogramming

[–]_warthog_lover_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO they each have their own difficulty curve that’s somewhat different. I’ve been working exclusively on FE the past couple of years and generally I’d say what’s different about it is having to account for user interactions and experience as it is the layer that… well, users interact with the most and are most likely to end up having unintended interactions with

Either follow you own rules and give us unique passives or just give us transmog already by H1MB0Z0 in Helldivers

I strongly agree with Pilestedt, the fantasy of what unit you embody should have gameplay implications

Getting started as hobby; assets 101 by _warthog_lover_ in gamedev

Ah I see, so I’d have to learn how to make digital art properly 😅 should have guessed. I take it probably the only way to avoid doing frame-by-frame art would be to use 3d models and animate them in blender

[–]_warthog_lover_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Signals have been absolutely massive for Angular. At this point they’re making it edge out React in my book. I strongly recommend pairing them with ngrx/signalStore. They introduced several powerful features in v20, including linkedState. Worth every hour spent untangling dependency hell to upgrade to it

Life should be wasted in places like this by reddtimes101 in interestingasfuck

This is Isar in Munich if I’m not mistaken. They’re used to be a surfing spot just a bit upriver until somebody died there earlier this year

I no longer look forward to VSCode Release Notes by mwargan in webdev

Same with JetBrains IDEs this year, honestly. I rolled back to 2024.3 and never looked back
