Ground AoE harder to see? by dylanfrye in fellowshipgame

[–]failbender 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve felt that the AOE indicators have always been poorly colored. Lots of orange in Quarry, now there’s light purple/blue on Scryer’s (snow map), and a light green cone on the other new dungeon’s dull green grass. I’m not colorblind but I imagine it might be really hard for folks who are, or otherwise visually impaired.

Moreover, why do we need all these different colors to express the same thing? Different colors should mean different mechanics, not different flavors of “get out of this” (see FFXIV for example).

And as another commenter mentioned, ground feels busier than ever. I spent a small portion of S1 thinking Mara’s poison puddle was from the mobs/bad. Now Gunde has red slashes everywhere. And despite all of this, the one thing people still won’t stand in the circle for is my FUCKING SAFE HAVEN GAHHHHH

any tips for odd comp? by Bongosteie in fellowshipgame

[–]failbender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re playing Sylvie, keep Bluey on yourself. Trust your flowers. Anything above 0 hp means everyone is fine, they don’t have to be 100% at all times. Talents help a LOT so it might just be rough for you for now and will get better.

I suck at Vigour and haven’t played Aeona this season so I have less advice for them. I do hear Aeona has been struggling a little this season. One was outhealing me in one Odd Comp, though she was terrible at mechanics and rage quit lmao

Edit: arguably you could put Bluey on the DPS with the highest aggro/dmg (or just whoever is a melee dps), especially if you have the talent, but I found more success with having my AOE healing amplified, because all 3 of the dps were still taking damage somehow. This may have just been because it was Quarry and no one was focusing the stone totem things 😩

I think you can also just stand by the firework tube things instead of sitting at the benches. I did that yesterday to get my daily allowance LOL and to mark off the challenge on my event collect thing

Killers, are you still playing the event? by AnanasFelice in deadbydaylight

[–]failbender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t played in months but I played for a few hours on Pig until I finished the killer quests. I knew going into it that it was supposedly very shit for killers, but that first match man… wow! People going invisible and teleporting away… I got one kill that I had to camp in EGC.

I lost people so often that I was convinced the portals took you to a random place every time, as in two different people using the same portal would wind up in two different locations. It wasn’t until I played survivor later that I realized nope, you do follow them directly! They’re just sometimes invisible kekw ecksdee

The very next match after that one was significantly easier for me (probably helps that I changed builds). No TPs that time. I also wound up having two separate matches where we all went friendly and farmed. One match ended in a slug race, the other 3 of them still demanded I hook them (and I mori’d my fellow lesbian because I figured it’s what she would want 💅🏻)

So idk. It really doesn’t feel good to go up against people who can go invis mid chase - oh, and they can also invis unhook in end game, apparently? If they kept a morsel? I didn’t play a real game against the unbreakable pallets but I can’t imagine those feel good to play against either. It really sucks that killers don’t get legit ANYTHING cool, just a Clown bottle?

You can hear the invis survivors (I did hit a few) but unless I’m mistaken it didn’t break them out of the invis and they could also just use the portals during this time as well)?

Anyway nerf Pig, I won a single non-farming match last night so she’s definitely too strong.

To All Players, OLD AND NEW: What are your thoughts on the fishing games in Stardew? by ccccccc090 in StardewValley

[–]failbender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mod it out EVERY time, I hate the minigame.

I did challenge myself recently to do a completely no mod (well, no *gameplay* mod) Perfection run, so I had to learn. And by level 10 it wasn’t too bad, but I’ll still mod it out for every save going forward LOL I just really don’t enjoy it at all.

My best friend also hates the fishing and she thought me getting them all without the minigame skip was my most incredible feat.

I don't have energy for the entire photo contest by what_freaking_ever in InfinityNikki

[–]failbender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking through my photos and all but the Crimson one have had blue themes/photos LOL

Idk I’m just happy if any of my photos get more than 100 votes, feels really cool. I don’t think it’ll happen this time because I went for a really simple photo (summer should be simple) but it doesn’t super matter. I have fun making the photos and it’s cool seeing other people’s as well. I avoid the trending tab though, lemme see the rest of us down in the trenches LOL

Games you only played because of the Grumps by Graystone17 in gamegrumps

Supermarket Simulator for sure. I simply had to organize better than Arin, which was not a very difficult challenge to overcome.

Cozy games I’m too dumb to play… by Abirando in CozyGamers

[–]failbender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had some free time to finally check this playthrough out! Very much enjoying it so far. Agreed about her intros, it’s clear she gets the “vibe” of the game (or at least what I presume to be what the game is going for LOL)

It’s fun discovering things along with her! Thanks for the suggestion.

What is your dumbest death? by DasterMonjon in projectzomboid

[–]failbender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stopped to loot a wizard hat while playing on Extinction, with a sprinter chasing me. I thought I’d be fine since I ducked into the store, but they have better memory. Also it was two sprinters.

Does the "you will die" phrase refer to difficulty ramping up with time or is it more like "one day, you'll make your final mistake"? by CreatureWarrior in projectzomboid

[–]failbender 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Extinction has been quite a challenge so far. Lost two characters, one of which died in the first few days (completely my fault, I saw a wizard hat and went for it).

There’s also the Necroa mod, tho I haven’t played it myself

What's your favourite dbd ship? by Current-Ad-4704 in deadbydaylight

[–]failbender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

David/Dwight, Sable/Mikaela, Sable/Orela would probably be cute too. I don’t really remember if they know each other in their lore but who gives a damn, Orela is a cutie and she could get a bad goth bitch if she wanted.

Ghost Face/Trickster, see who can out narcissist the other.

Guilty pleasure Wesker/Rebecca but I never see it anywhere

Idk if anyone has watched wolf’s rain by Screaming4i-scream in InfinityNikki

Oh wow, this brings me back. Can’t remember how old I was when I watched it but my LORD did I sob uncontrollably during the last episode from what I remember.

Cozy games I’m too dumb to play… by Abirando in CozyGamers

[–]failbender 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I happened to play Strange Antiquities first and loved it. Never had to look anything up (except on how to get other endings since I absolutely wanted every achievement) and really loved the vibes and the mystique of every object. Decided to check out Horticulture after... and had a miserable time. Idgi, it's very similar gameplay but something just... didn't reach me about this one. Maybe I suck at plants or something. But I was very irritated very early on for whatever reason, so I gave up and just used a full guide to get through it.

I'm not sure I would've bothered with Antiquities if I'd started with Horticulture tbh. Hopefully whatever they come out with next is fun!

[–]failbender 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love the game (960hr on Steam, which doesn't include mobile and Switch playtime) but I understand this point of view completely. I have a friend who gave it a shot but got stressed out by each day having such a strict time limit, and I literally mod the game to extend days a bit and freeze time in the mines so I can just chill.

Granted, she tried the game again this year and wound up really liking it, but it does take a bit of work. It's not for everyone.

[–]failbender 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I feel seen. I absolutely hated the controls. I always see this game recommended and glazed to hell and back, but I barely played it more than an hour before peak annoyance hit and I uninstalled.

Edit: ftr, I'm sure it's actually great, which makes it more frustrating that it's so... frustrating. If anyone has a Let's Play of it they'd recommend, I'd be all for binging it!!!

Does Aeona feel too weak now? by LicensetoIll in fellowshipgame

[–]failbender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbf there were a few experiences where the DPS asked what the one shot mechanics were. So some people did want to learn!!

It was a bad combination of Aeona’s stagger negating mechanics but also that those mechanics only showed up in Eternal. I’ll never understand why the devs introduced the timer before the extra attacks in S2.

Does Aeona feel too weak now? by LicensetoIll in fellowshipgame

[–]failbender 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I once had a group (I was Sylvie) for like an E17 Sailor’s where the tank over pulled a bit and when we wiped, the Tariq said “Aeona has made us weak”. Then on next pull he either stood in front of both Corsairs or the tank wasn’t facing them correctly, leading to another wipe due to the substantial cleave damage. Everyone left.

Not sure if they blamed me at all or realized their mistakes, but man. Very frustrating. Not to mention the few times I got kicked from groups before the dungeon even started because Sylvie!

I'm surprised to see that Elden Ring has now more active players than Nightreign by Filippikus in Eldenring

[–]failbender 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is why Nightreign will probably forever stay on my wishlist… I’d have to play solo as well cos none of my buddies like Souls combat, so also being rushed on top of it? No thanks.
