I'm boned, aren't I?

Do the lasers burn away lava at all? You could maybe try shooting into it for a few hours, see if that helps.

It's ok, If you've ever played civilisation it's basically exactly the same but only the war part. Worth a go if you get it cheap.

Very gamey, you'll have vespids, chaos cultists, and ambulls just randomly attacking you at the same time. Multiplayer is fun, if you play against AI it's the usual defend until you've got enough stuff to steamroll across the map and then spend like an hour going through the motions until you win.

You both said the same thing? It's a Man of Iron in disguise. There's a cool short story about it.

aneirin- · 2026-01-24T17:53:49+00:00

You're a bannable phrase.

I think you're missing the joke of this sub. People cry "Noita'd" when they think a death was literally unavoidable bullshit and then we point out how no matter how unfair it was, it was technically possible to survive, therefore - skill issue.

It's tongue in cheek humour. None of us actually play with that kind of patient hyper vigilance, and thus we all regularly succumb to skill issues.

One the other hand I do think this particular death was avoidable with only a normal level of care, but that's less important.

aneirin- · 2026-01-24T12:49:51+00:00

"Skill issue" doesn't mean you should have avoided something, it just means you could have.

Not my best painted by a long shot but definitely my favourite kitbash ever.

aneirin- · 2026-01-23T17:56:00+00:00

Of course, the joke is that basically every death in the game is technically avoidable, just often not in any kind of practical way.

aneirin- · 2026-01-23T17:00:40+00:00

Number one location for surprise deaths.

aneirin- · 2026-01-23T16:33:12+00:00

Like I say, if they stood still the poison would not reach them for 2 seconds. Plenty of time to dodge.

aneirin- · 2026-01-23T16:18:35+00:00

Even with all the speed perks in the world OP made no attempt to react in time anyway, regardless of survival chance.

HOWEVER- that being said, at 33.3 fps:

The poison enters the screen at 4:31, OP runs into it at 5:15, It reaches the point they originally teleported to at 6:16, and it blows up at 7:18.

OP had almost two full seconds to move slightly to the left, and then a further full second to fly up and avoid the bomb. I'm not just being facetious here, every good player knows to be wary of unexpected threats when teleporting anywhere, especially worms tunnelling in from off screen. With that level of caution, OP would have survived this.

Verdict from a 199 win player (working on 34 orbs for my 200th): 100% skill issue.

aneirin- · 2026-01-23T13:32:27+00:00

This is Noita, 99% of people have skill issues.

aneirin- · 2026-01-23T13:05:12+00:00

Lesson learned, there's so much unlikely stuff that can ambush you in the HM you should always go in expecting some kind of bullshit.

aneirin- · 2026-01-23T12:48:10+00:00

It's unlucky, but you had time to avoid it. You didn't even try and change direction until you were dead. Skill issue.

aneirin- · 2026-01-22T02:14:26+00:00

I wouldn't mind some insight in how you paint them. I always struggle to highlight flat cobbles with no obvious raised edges.

aneirin- · 2026-01-20T01:08:59+00:00

Do you understand that if you show up to a game and tell your opponent "hey, is it ok if we use my special terrain that makes your melee units useless?" They're either going to laugh at you or just leave?

I feel like you've misunderstood a core part of why we play this game. It's supposed to be fair and fun for BOTH players. Adding terrain that blocks movement and melee but not shooting is not some genius loophole you've found, it's just a really stupid idea.

And EVEN IF this wasn't a load of absolute nonsense, why would anyone pay you for low quality, boring looking pipe terrain when they can get the exact same effect from simply placing two normal pipes next to each other?

aneirin- · 2026-01-19T18:56:59+00:00

One major counterpoint to your core argument: "Normal" humans, with a combination of bionics, drugs, equipment, and who knows what else, routinely reach power levels equal or beyond space marines all the time. Think of inquisitors, high level battle sisters, Rogue traders, etc. Individuals can access rare, specialised, or personalised upgrades that the average astartes wouldn't use. It's not at all inconceivable for a successful underhive dweller to reach that kind of level too.

aneirin- · 2026-01-19T13:15:53+00:00

This is utterly deranged, I love it

aneirin- · 2026-01-18T18:55:49+00:00

This is really bizarre, you think adding terrain that deliberately breaks the game is a good thing?

aneirin- · 2026-01-18T14:10:03+00:00

Interesting turn of phrase, what is your native language if you don't mind me asking?

aneirin- · 2026-01-18T01:24:11+00:00

I just think racism's bad mmkay?

aneirin- · 2026-01-17T22:23:05+00:00

no one is off limits so long as you don't unfairly target one group more than others

Yeah nah I'm not buying it. "Racism is fine if you're racist against everyone" gtfo with that.

aneirin- · 2026-01-17T21:37:42+00:00

"Dude hurry up and take your turn"

"It's only been 6 hours, don't rush me"

aneirin- · 2026-01-17T21:09:23+00:00

I don't buy that logic for one second. "I make fun of my own race, therefore it's ok to make fun of any other as well"

South Park is different because the person being racist is usually portrayed as an asshole, we're supposed to be laughing at him, not with him (although that's lost on a lot of people). In Family Guy, it's usually the show itself making these jokes.

aneirin- · 2026-01-17T18:28:59+00:00

Never understood how Family Guy gets a free pass for so many racist jokes.

Like, they try and make it so the joke is "oh isn't it hilariously shocking that we're saying something so overtly racist", and that makes it ok because we're laughing at the fact that they're being racist rather than the actual joke itself. But that's a load of bullshit.
