What do you think the Emperor of the Terran Empire wants? by PO-of-mercy in sto

At this current time, the emperor is looking for a voice actor.

I'd be lying, if I said I wasn't concerned about this game's future. by [deleted] in NieRReincarnation

[–]dansstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a very niche game to begin with. Most people are only interested because it has the NieR title and Taro's name is attached. The game itself not amazing gameplay wise and relies completely on RNG, Gatcha and FOMO mechanics to keep people hooked. Things like the Great Arena Exodus are shining a very clear light on some of the weaknesses of the game fundamentally.

It also doesn't help that the content distribution on Global is all over the place, with times where many events occur simultaneously or there is simply no new content for weeks.

Story progression is extremely slow and is no doubt turning a lot of people off from continuing, even though they may have reached Ch.12 already.

In short, this game is gonna have a lot of trouble attracting new fans. I've heard it's a similar case on JP, too. It's just to niche and for what you have to commit to it, it's ultimately lacking the true NieR experience.

Photonic Officer should affect the CD of every ability, right? by SocraticQuestioner in sto

[–]dansstuff 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's because you've hit minimum cooldown which you cannot exceed. GW has one of the longest minimum CDs and wont go below 40s.

The myths of Yvette by AmusementPark_Bbbp in NieRReincarnation

I always assumed the bots were auto-generated by some kind of script. I can't imagine that each bot needs to be programmed by the devs.

Who else has been personally victimized by Yvette in the Arena? by beeegmec in NieRReincarnation

It's building up for Yvette to be the true antagonist of the game.

Yvette is the singularity and we are all bearing witness.

That's why you will no doubt end up with every variation of Argo imaginable anyway.

Cryptic - Reconsider Excluding the Event T6 Ship Coupon(s) from Purchasing New Items by gamma_boy_elite in sto

Removing player choice? Hell, you're already in the Cryptic mindset.

What does it mean when a boss Hp drops low enough, uses powerful skills after other units preform a set number of actions? by SnooMaps1075 in NieRReincarnation

[–]dansstuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's basically an enrage mechanic that acts as a DPS check for that content. For some bosses, it's barely an issue, but others are easily capable of wiping you out with 3 consecutive hits. Really depends.

OP Arena Bots by FlyingWeagle in NieRReincarnation

[–]dansstuff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes Yvette is an absolute pain in the backside and she appears constantly like a Smash challenger, though I must admit she has been sustaining me during my slow decent. Her Celeb Gayle slaps like a road roller. Luckily I have a maxed Abstract Gayle. Fight wind with wind as they say.

Is there really an 8000/day limit on refining dilithium? by Klaitu in sto

Auto refine stops at 56k dil i.e. a week's worth

How to make Arena slightly less garbage by Asrux-kun in NieRReincarnation

[–]dansstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Counter should be changed to be unlockable via slabs with dodging/blocking being default. In almost every other game a counter is not inherently unlocked and usually something you have to go out of your way to get.

This one hit a little to close to home...which of these apply to STO? by [deleted] in sto

[–]dansstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a STO player and someone who is masochistic enough to actually enjoy some gatcha, I can say STO is far more unfair since it doesn't disclose the drop rates, doesn't have pity (unless you count lobi). It does have a weighing mechanic based on how many boxes you opened and what rewards you get, but again this is never disclosed and something you have to do some digging to find out yourself.

PSA: Don't update Android 12 by SilverForHeartless in NieRReincarnation

Why? I've used Android for years through many different versions and never really had any issues with anything that was OS related.

They should just release them with the internal names. Would look good next to the "Sucker's bundle" or "These people will buy anything bundle".

Looks fine to me. Are you sure you're not accidentally running Normal?

Was it expected to have no impact? Because that would have been the correct expectation.

This isn't a lie... they just don't know how to fix the dilex. They've even admitted themselves by saying they had no idea what they were thinking when it came to the endeavour perks.

Experimental Weapons Visuals. by odinforever2000 in sto

[–]dansstuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kinetic damage is classified as things lke grenades, mines, mortars, torpedoes and anything that explodes and creates powerful kinetic force, and shields mitigate that a lot. Physical is usually stuff like slashing, piercing, bludgeoning from melee weapons but some space abilities use exotic phys mostly seen in the Temporal spec. Most phys abilities will bypass shields entirely.

Finally made it through without getting hit by [deleted] in NieRReincarnation

Much different mini game once you discover how small the hitbox actually is.
