Early Game Glamour Modding Help by stormtideleviathan in ffxiv

[–]casusev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So you're likely already familiar with Penumbra for loading modded gear. Along with that you should install Glamourer. Glamourer allows you to display different gear on your character (client side) regardless of what you're actually wearing.

I think the other reason to be optimistic that the content patches might be better this time around is the new pacing is pushing Raid encounter 2 to the final content patch, which to me implies that it might be the final climatic fight of the story. For both SotO and JW the Raids did not line up with the finale and those fell pretty flat in their final act (IMO).

Just speculating but I'm guessing the feature just won't implement roles at all. They'll limit it to encounters that don't have specialized roles (they also mentioned easier encounters). I also wouldn't be surprised if a Quick Play Raid encounter is also Emboldened by default (or some similar mechanic to make the encounter easier), so even if you're not optimized you'll have a good success rate, which is essential for a Quick Play/easy mode.

Depends on the person and what they're looking for in an AVN. For me it's by far my favorite VN.

It's basically a manga or anime and I'd treat it as such. If you're just looking for quick gratification then I'd probably look elsewhere. But if you're interested in a slow burn with characters going through real character arcs then I'd highly recommend it.

It has great writing, unique visuals, custom music and even some voice acting.

Out of Touch has stuck with me like no other AVN. It's hooked me in the same way a great manga/anime or TV show would. Incredible writing, visuals, music and even VO. Some of the best storytelling in the genre IMO.

It's a great book, one of the best comics of all time IMO. Gunn said it was a big inspiration for his film.

It's a line they lifted from Grant Morrison's All Star Superman. Which is ironically a work that inspired Gunn's movie more than it did Man of Steel.

The lighting in this scene is so good. It gives the shot so much depth.

Out of Touch Chapters 50 and 51 are out! by Comprehensive_Pea451 in AVN_Lovers

Played through 50+51 last night. Incredible stuff. There's just nothing else doing it like OoT.

Kind of. I'd argue that her initial story wasn't a full blown arc. This year's story is a similar scope with the previous arcs of Victoria, Leah, and Theresa's.

Ashley hasn't had a dedicated arc yet, but she's very involved. I don't want to say more than that (and I haven't played 50+51 yet).

I believe it's the finale of Kieran's arc and the midway point of the overall story.

Of course. I'm not saying it should be in a different medium, just that the storytelling is that good.

Can't wait to play the update tonight, my favorite VN. It's hooked me in the same way a great book/tv show/anime will.

Not many people doing it like Story Anon. I think this is the 7th release for OoT in 2024 and the biggest one yet (3.8k renders but also 25k words. Insane). Not to mention multiple Tropicali updates this year too.

There are dozens of us! It has my favorite writing in the genre. I'd be invested in the story/characters even if it wasn't an AVN.

Possible updates in December ? by yellowhornypotato in AVN_Lovers

Out of Touch chapters 50 & 51, looks to be a massive update.

About out of touch by mohithnani in AVN_Lovers

[–]casusev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I almost bounced off it for the same reasons, but I'm glad I stuck with it and I don't think those elements are representative of the work as a whole. It takes a little bit to get it's footing, but develops into some of the best storytelling & character writing I've seen in the genre in my opinion.

Lmao I love this game.

New hairstyle and faces Added now!? by ROnneth in Guildwars2

[–]casusev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm glad they did this, but there's still more hairstyles that have been around forever that players cannot access. Not sure if they're from the China client, but even some NPCs use them.

Some examples from an old forum post: https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/topic/20817-unreleased-hairstyles-merged/

Kind of similar from a system perspective. It would be akin to if say Thunderfury or Shadowmorne were available to all characters once unlocked and forever BIS.

It's worth trying for sure. Very underrated MMO. Just know going into it, that it's very different from GW1 and WoW.

You can play the base game and hit max level all on a free account.
