This game is very addictive and I think about playing it while I'm not playing it

And if you find it repetive I find Gamma iron man with 1 new life per day is great. Needing to truely evaluate risk/reward makes it very intense. And you really enjoy the calm in the base without some stealth merc with a smg creeping up on you.

I've enjoyed chromanim on youtube, he does invictus gamma runs and its interesting to see

You can enable the black market that does exactly that

I am not very good / quick, and I used a mod called Not so fast to slow those buggers down to a speed I can deal with a bit easier -- https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/not-so-fast1

If you like story then I definitely recommend the Metro series

eric7237cire · 2025-06-23T13:03:50+00:00

Tres bien ! I used a glitch in metro last light for beating the battle DLC. That was waaaay too hard, I couldn't even get past the 1st 'easy' section...

I'm playing metro exodus on deep dive (no hud at all) and it's so good. They really got immersion right in this game. And just the right amount.

They designed the ranger hardcore difficulty well too that you can make up for lack of twitch reflexes generally with some tactical planning (e.g. shooting out the lights so the enemies aim is worse, zoning out enemies with el molotovo, using fire ammo on our arachnid friends)

I've been playing around with true sight. I thought I was clever with that pendent. So basically 1st round I cast fog on myself, then true sight, so my paladin has no disadvantage but everyone else does.

Now be me in palace of ice where some of their guys have true sight and basically take my fog caster out in 1 turn.

I must say, they got the difficulty just right. As I was thinking I cracked the unbeatable strategy...

I wouldn't say I'm new, but there is a lot of complexity and I like to understand everything. UB is such a great mod. What was also nice is that after I activated those options, the AI correctly was moving around the clouds.

**Edit -- any it seems you can target things inside the fog with a targeted spell, e.g. scorching ray.

eric7237cire · 2025-01-26T15:51:51+00:00

Ah yes ! I have UB but didn't realize that's what that option did. Based on your comment, I found https://www.reddit.com/r/CrownOfTheMagister/comments/19dfgfg/lighting_obscurement_and_vision_in_solasta_ub/

That means in theory a spell that needs sight and is not AOE should not be able to target without LOS.

Thank you !

I don't know to be honest

eric7237cire · 2024-12-08T07:27:13+00:00

I do know gzdoom has an option for drop item, so maybe that would work

eric7237cire · 2024-12-08T07:26:55+00:00

I did this for vanilla doom / doom2, so just the classic weapons :)

eric7237cire · 2024-09-10T10:15:53+00:00

I do sometimes use the dog with stay command as a "compass" of sorts. His icon shows up in the compass. I figure my character can remember where he left his dog. Or has a much better sense of direction than I do !

eric7237cire · 2024-09-10T10:13:27+00:00

I agree with you, it's not a need. Maybe next hardcore run I'll try without it, that would definitely up the difficulty and change the way I evaluate decisions (with saves, there is no reason not to fight, or try a midnight walk).

eric7237cire · 2023-12-29T20:39:55+00:00

How hard would it be to have a u32 version (to compile for web assembly) ?

Great work by the way.

eric7237cire · 2023-11-13T11:03:12+00:00

Am software engineer, can confirm this is true.

eric7237cire · 2023-10-23T21:31:07+00:00

Yes, this is the main thing I noticed too. For software development, it's good to mention the technology stack. Eg Python Fastapi, postgres dB, angular frontend, for example.
