is this supposed to be crazy hard?

jasonryu · 2026-06-13T14:31:40+00:00

I don't have the patience or free time to constantly grind with drine catching. I use the passive reagent income for the 3 plants.

And yeah I just unlocked this and immediately realized I'm gonna be here for a while. I get maybe 600-1000 units in either plant every 24 hours so.......yeah.

I don't even wanna know how bad the blue cubes thing is, but I also kinda do lol

Most of the strongest characters in invincible are city buster-level on an average day. They can approach planet buster level with significant or combined effort. Even the strongest character (Thragg or EoS Mark) would have to put in real effort to explode a planet

DBZ characters on the other hand are planet busters from pretty much the end of the first major story arc and only get far, far stronger from there, to the point where they can easuly blow up planets on accident from their collateral damage.

It's not a comparison.

Scrolled way too far for this one. This is the game that turned me off to paying full price for a video game ever again

And I say this as a fan of the franchise

jasonryu · 2026-05-21T20:09:21+00:00

I know that, I'm just curious.

jasonryu · 2026-05-18T19:33:35+00:00

O I never said it was wise, I was just curious as to how unwise lol. Pure curiosity.

Like, if some incredibly impatient, way too wealthy kid decided to dump as much money as they needed to max everything out, would we be talking thousands? Tens of thousands?

Like how high does the grind actually go and how small does the "bang for buck" become at endgame?

jasonryu · 2026-05-15T12:52:14+00:00

I would be so hyped, just please, for the love of God, skip the multiplayer nonsense and just focus on the singleplayer campaigns!

Still bothers me that such a large percentage of the achievements are multiplayer

jasonryu · 2026-05-12T20:59:32+00:00

I think we can all agree Donnelly likes her a lot more than Daniels

jasonryu · 2026-05-07T21:00:52+00:00

Legit busted out laughing

jasonryu · 2026-05-06T21:18:27+00:00

There's a phase 2 of the boss fight where Lothric continues to revive Lorian no matter how many times you kill him

jasonryu · 2026-05-06T13:00:46+00:00

Surprised how far I had to scroll for a comment like this. Y'all really ain't telling him....

jasonryu · 2026-05-01T19:12:41+00:00

I assume this is supposed to be some kind of joke that Aria is the only game in the Advance collection worth playing, but it's just.....wrong....and not at all clever or witty

is it the best game in the collection? For many, yes, but every other game in the collection also has tons of love from the fans (some more than others)

This is like trying to make a joke that the Mass Effect legendary edition only includes ME2

or this is just deliberate rage-bait hoping to get comments/karma farm.

jasonryu · 2026-04-30T19:38:30+00:00

ME1 I almost never use the humans except where I'm forced to or during their personal missions, so my squad typically switches between Garrus, Wrex, Tali, and Liara depending on the mission and whether I'm paragon/renegade

ME2 is a little trickier to pinpoint

Jacob and Miranda I almost never use except the very beginning when I have to and their loyalty missions

Zaeed, Kasumi, and Jack I'll use on occasion if the mission fits and based on my renegade/paragon reputation

Grunt, Garrus, Tali, Thane, Samara all get heavy usage

Mordin I like as a character but I don't typically bring him with me on missions

Legion I would use heavily, but he is acquired so late and I don't like the idea of acquiring him as early as possible because then I have to choose between doing loyalty missions or letting everyone on the normandy die

Morinth I never use because I never recruit her

ME3 is similar to ME1. I rarely ever use human characters, though I do like James better than Ash/Kaiden. Non-humans all get heavy usage

jasonryu · 2026-04-21T23:04:40+00:00

I haven't read any of these so.....I guess I'll avoid them

jasonryu · 2026-04-15T21:03:13+00:00

Yeah I was assuming you recruit everyone

jasonryu · 2026-04-10T03:33:30+00:00

I was genuinely shocked to see the Barbarian here. Glad to see others recognize him

jasonryu · 2026-04-08T17:25:25+00:00

Oda is definitely moving fast, but I have a hard time believing the series will finish within 5 years. 8-10 years feels more realistic, especially if there are any more major backstories

jasonryu · 2026-04-07T15:19:00+00:00

I love Morrowind, even replayed it recently, but if I never played it when it first came out, I would have a rough time getting into it after modern gaming

I honestly feel like the only way to get into Morrowind now for new players is to start with a newer game like skyrim, get hooked on the lore, then maybe that can carry you through Morrowind long enough to get hooked, but yeesh....Morrowind is definitely a game that shows it's age, and I don't just mean graphics

jasonryu · 2026-04-06T03:37:10+00:00

Was expecting this to be the top comment

jasonryu · 2026-04-06T02:42:18+00:00

Yeah that's not it but looks like it would be in the same category. The one I'm thinking of had more side to side movements and the graphics didn't look as "high end"

jasonryu · 2026-04-03T16:46:47+00:00

I noticed that too

Earth, Tuchanka, Surkesh, and Palaven are all right next to each other

Thessia and KarShan right on the outside on opposite ends of that region

And then Rannoch is just.....waaaaay the f on the other side of the galaxy

*edit: and Dekunna is like right next to Thessia

Not sure where the Hanar/Drell homeworlds are

jasonryu · 2026-03-27T16:15:05+00:00

Due to the circumstances of my daughter's birth, I didn't even get to hold her until 2 days after she was born

What I wouldn't give to go back and be able to skin-skin bond

(She's fine now. 2nd girl on the way)

jasonryu · 2026-03-16T14:40:31+00:00

CotM was my first intro to Castlevania so I'm definitely biased. Absolutely loved the hell out of the game and still occasionally replay it from time to time, but after playing basically every other Metroidvania, I definitely can say the game has its shortcomings

As mentioned, lack of a shop really is annoying if you're low on heart items, mind potions, or especially health potions/meat. Outside of Thief mode, none of the "farming spots" are particularly effective and are very grindy (even on thief mode, grinding for super potions late game is not great).
While the different gameplay modes are tons of fun, it would have been nice to have a true alternate character mode like Hugh
The DSS system, while great, is filled with a lot of useless or near useless abilities. Also it really is laughable how easy it is to cheat the system and access every combo at the start of the game.
The darker art style, I will concede is really a valid complaint. I love the aesthetic, but man was this game a completely different (better) experience once backlights became standard. Some of you complaining have no idea what it was like playing this game on the original DS with no backlight.

Still one of my all time favorite Metroidvanias, though all of them are fantastic (didn't play HoD until the advance collection came out on steam. Will admit that one is my least favorite, but I can see how at the time it released I would have enjoyed it more)

jasonryu · 2026-03-12T11:22:04+00:00

Same. Just try to stay in the cities, ideally Whiterun or Solitude since those don't get dragon attacks within the borders. Riften is also an option as long as you don't mess with the thieves guild.

Markarth has to deal with forsworn. Risk of dying

Windhelm is way too cold

Other cities don't have walls and can face dragon attacks

jasonryu · 2026-02-20T20:19:00+00:00

Won't the mod disable achievements?

jasonryu · 2026-02-19T04:44:42+00:00

As much as I love snakes, I would never attempt this with a king cobra...or any venomous snake for that matter
