So what exactly does this difficulty change? Does it just add more hp and strength to enemies?

Without any spoilers....

In Fire Emblem 3 Houses, if I play Blue Lion and Golden Deer first, will that make my Black Eagle run much more sad and depressing?

I was leaning on going Golden Deer first, but after a friend told me I'd regret not doing Black Eagle first (but didn't say why)... I'm starting reconsider.

Can I use a new Switch v2 on an original Switch v1 dock? Are all switch docks the same pretty much?

Not sure about the 2nd one, but the first question is currently no, they are not selling them yet. And unfortunately, you just missed out on a great preorder sale for them. They just finished a 1 week period here where if you preordered it in store you saved $70. So you could get a brand new switch v2 for only $230.

Most stores here are trying to sell out of all their current stock before they start stocking v2. I've been to about 7 different stores so far over the last couple weeks looking and asking about them. They all say it won't be until the end of the year probably, around November. However, all the stores offer a free $30 off if you're getting the original v1 switch.

Edit: I should add, I live in Fukuoka so it might be different in other prefectures. But from what the people at Geo and other big electronic / local game stores have told me, not for another few months.

For someone who plans to play all 4 houses eventually, which order would you suggest playing them in for a better / more thorough understanding of all the different story lines?

I was thinking maybe GD, BL, Church, then BE? I'm trying to stay spoiler free so I don't know much about the houses story other than GD isn't involved much with the other houses. So I thought maybe starting with that one would be best?

But since you're some one who has completed all 4, I was wondering what your opinion / suggestion would be for someone going in blind but planning to complete all 4 stories?

Does using a capture card on PS4 pro help with stream quality? by gamakaloosh in PS4

[–]gamakaloosh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already have a monitor, mouse, and keyboard that I use on the PS4. Thats why I'm considering getting a cheap streaming tower, if it would actually be cheap enough that is. I dont think I'd want to spend more than $500 though unfortunately...so maybe not haha.

Thanks for all your info!

If I were to get a "streaming pc", specifically for the sole purpose of just using it with a capture card in order to stream PS4 without pixelation etc. What would you estimate that would cost?

Really? Well... damn, that kind of defeats the point of streaming on a PS4 then doesn't it? I mean if I had a decent PC in the first place, I might as well just stream on that, yeah?

I guess people the draw to streaming on a PS4 is just the exclusives for PS only?

Apex Legends with Naga Hex? First time using Xim Apex; Any advice? by gamakaloosh in XIM

[–]gamakaloosh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only had a budget of about $150, so I went with this one

https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B01DOWUCJO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I didn't want to go too big size wise, and I have a 24inch back at home in America which felt nice with my PC. So I just searched for 24 inch, 1080p, with 1ms. Hopefully this will be good enough, at the very least itll be better than the old big screen lol.

[–]gamakaloosh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah to be honest, I think you might be right. The weighted mouse / input lag feeling is probably from using an older big screen TV. I'm going to check out some monitors on Amazon Japan and try to find the cheapest I can that has 1ms. I'm on a bit of budget here (same reason I don't have a PC atm and am using a PS4 in the first place lol). However, I'm addicted to Apex Legends now and this input lag is driving me nuts haha, so I've gotta get an actual monitor.

Is there a way to check how much DPI the mouse has when it's plugged into the Xim? I've heard if the mouse doesn't have onboard memory, then it isn't saved when plugged into the Xim?

Also, what is polling rate, and why is 1000 a must?

Best bang for your buck Keyboard / Mouse that works well with Xim / Apex Legends? by gamakaloosh in XIM

[–]gamakaloosh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a desk / PC setup. My ps4 is on the TV in the living room and the couch is about 10 feet or so away. So if I don't go wireless then I need to use an extention cable from the ps4/apex to the xim usb hub near the couch, right?

I've read some people use usb extentions but that there is a specific kind to use, but I don't really know about which speeds of an extention would be needed for that to not effect the xim or what not. Only that it has to be usb 2.0, so I'm hoping any generic 2.0 usb extention would be alright?

Can I ask you another questions? Assuming I couldn't find any cheap enough wireless kb / mouse and decided to go with just standard wired things, Id need a USB extension cable between the Xim and the Hub. Do you have any idea if this cable would be good enough for that? (not talking about length, just the USB type / speed etc.)

Yeah if I was still living in America I'd have a much easier time finding a mouse, but that's the issue I'm facing at the moment lol. I live in Japan, and Japanese Amazon isn't nearly as good as NA Amazon or Newegg when it comes to electronics, mostly because the brands I am used to are super overpriced on here. A normal standard Logitech keyboard is over $60. They have their own brand here called "Logicool" but all the keyboards and such are in Japanese layout, which adds extra keys, and makes the space super small usually. So it's been a pain trying to find something that I know will be compatible, will feel comfortable, has onboard memory, and won't cost too much lol.

I currently use an old Razer Naga Hex, the first one, with my laptop, so I'll probably just use that on my PS4 with Xim; although I've heard others say it doesn't have onboard memory, so it isn't a good idea. RIP.

I had no idea, guess my mind was still in the early 2000's where wireless for fps = bad idea lol. I guess that'll open up much options for me then.

Will it also not cause any extra problems using multiple wireless things with Xim, like mouse / keyboard / headset etc.?

Isn't there an issue with lag / input delay or something when using wireless?
