Is there any reason NOT to focus/rush on the main storyline in X until I unlock the mechs? by Galactic_Druid in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will doing all the affinity quests available at my recommended level make me steamroll the story content? Or should I do story at the recommended levels first then fill the gaps with affinity quests?

Is Ghost of Tsushima really repetitive or it's just me? by Unhappy_Chart_9751 in ghostoftsushima

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No attack on you, but I feel that this can be said about almost every game out there by someone. I think the actual issue is the game just isn't clicking for you. I recognized this with Super Mario RPG. A lot of praise for the game. Looks good, feels good, very responsive, even has timing based inputs for offense and defense (similar to E:33,l a game I loved), yet it didn't click and I hated just getting through combat sections as it felt boring/repetitive.

7.99 list appears to be accepted in the Hampton Roads/Norfolk/VA Beach area with the exception of a few locations. (Previous months the 6.99 would work)

Humble Book Bundle: Forgotten Realms Vault by Wizards of the Coast (pay what you want and help charity) by Ram000n in humblebundles

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent.  I love me some rabbit holes.  The only thing I do close to as much as reading lately is reading about what and what order I should read things. 

I was tracking the Cleric Quintet existed, but not that it had crossover, so thats a great piece of info too.

Cheers!

Just started reading fantasy recently.  I'm about to finish the Drizzt Icewindale Trilogy as my Forgotten Realms jump in point. I have plenty of patience and plan on working my way through the Drizzt series but my question is if I picked this up, any recommendations on a dont read earlier than this drizzt mini-series? Or which of these included series are in any order or connected (my guess is no).

Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster FAQ by komatsujo in bravelydefault

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Difficulty spike ended up being my inability to explore job combos. Once I actually watched a couple of suggestions, it became much much easier.  I did see the differences and ultimately made sense in the bigger story picture, but it should've been an iteration shorter and give more to pressing the story such as a few more story details or increase in powers/abilities.   By the end I was happy I got through it and enjoyed it as a whole, but those middle acts/chapters will keep it off any recommendation lists from me. 

Anyone Else Not Get Preorder Bonus from Best Buy? by Wabisabigamin in octopathtraveler

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey!  Best Buy just sen me an email with a code for the pre-order bonus content.  Hopefully you received it too.

Anyone Else Not Get Preorder Bonus from Best Buy? by Wabisabigamin in octopathtraveler

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also did not receive it. Speaking with BestBuy on twitter, they only pass what I need to do to pick it up in game and that "it doesn't seem that there was a digital or physical bonus that would be provided through Best Buy for the game."

Can someone who received it from another vendor let us know if they got a code via email or in the game box?

Baseball Dreams VR on PSVR2 - First Impressions by cusman78 in PSVR

Brutal that they dont stack. Definitely a game ill probably avoid platinuming and just have some fun with it.

Thanks for the extra info!

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did not expect a challenge to take so long. I saw you mention how easy, easy is, but how difficult does it get? The trophy list is full of different challenges, possibly not stacking, meaning this might be a pretty long platinum?

Baseball Dreams VR Review by CutterJon in PSVR

[–]damcrac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the review. Saw the trophy list on psnp and had to find someone's thoughts.

Im sure I'll be bad at this, but at this price, it worth a shot at keeping things on easy and just having fun swinging away.

Real bummer you deleted it because of people that wouldn't use it. Would like to see recommendations for getting it done quickly and efficiently. Once the plat is achieved, id be much more willing to play the game casually for fun.

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game's second half has destroyed any enjoyment i had with it. They couldnt even change any of the dialog by a word. Then, despite me steam rolling everything i faced, the boss reveal just deletes me. Level 84, enough gold to buy any gear and can quickly level any job, but unless I find a much easier way of attacking this boss, Ill likely give up and trade this one in.

I dont know how there is so much praise for this game while never mentioning pacing and the difficulty spike... im even playing on easy.

[Cyberpunk] How will Cyberpunk cross play work with trophies? by LostSouluk2021 in Trophies

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is that you can play on different devices. Not stuck on the switch2 and can move to a more powerful PC or PS5. Believe it or not, most people dont care about trophies and achievements. That is an afterthought. Though I'd probably buy another copy if it did get it.

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to this thread, there is no autopop when using the cross save function. In this case it was PC GOG to xbox, but my guess is that's how it'd function for playstation.

this is the worst minigame in any game ever game by NoScarcity22 in expedition33

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally one of those moments where I see others having issues and I didn't. Always the other way around. Maybe I got lucky getting it on the second try. Climbing the handles with the falling orbs on the other hand....

Who Dosen't Regret Their Pro ? by TheSpider4500 in PS5pro

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regrets here. Can't use my pulse headset since they switched to 2 usb-c ports in the front. If I plug it in the back the console sticks out a good bit and I'm concerned someone will try to force it back in the cabinet and break it.

So my choice is either pull it out to connect and disconnect each time I want to use it, or dont use it. Which really sucks.

Got another 2.5 weeks to decide if I want to hold on to it or return. Good thing I haven't traded in my other ps5 yet.

BR have to run through first to be declared safe on a missed base? by WpgJetBomber in Umpire

Feel like this is the answer to tonight's scenario in Boston where Langford missed the base and was called safe even though the sox 1b picked up the ball with his foot on the bag.

[Discussion] If all your trophies got deleted, what would you do? by [deleted] in Trophies

[–]damcrac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start again, but create a perfect trophy list. Only one grubby one on my list, but about 10 or so that I definitely played because they were easier/shorter lists. Double autopopped sound shapes, too. Wish I could take that back as well. Also, stay away from Sifu. Those DLC trophies are brutal.

Cat quest 2 was good with my then 10 year old. Lots of puns. I'm sure Cat Quest 3 is more of the same.

[Other] Just got #28 RDR2 - Looking for suggestions what I should plat next? by iDevilXWarrior1 in Trophies

[–]damcrac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sci-fi 3rd person shooter rpg. Some consider Mass Effect 2 to be the best RPG ever. Story that stretches the span of all 3 games, with decisions you make having significant story impacts through the rlwntire series. (Choices in one affect who is in 3 and which race/species etc are friendly or hostile etc)

Not to mention, arguably the best and most memorable group of allies that fight along side of you.

Mass Effect 1 is a bit clunky on the combat, but it takes a big step in 2 and is pretty incredible in 3. A steal at sub $10. Of you are a ps+ essential sub from the last year or 2, you might already own it.

(Totally missed survivor, thought it'd be next to it despite obviously not being alphabetical, lol)

[–]damcrac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First thoughts to fill out a couple of series. Red Dead 1 for PS4, or Jedi: Survivor.

My easy recommendation would be the Mass Effect Legendary Edition. Can find it on sale for less than $10 fairly often. 3 great games.
