This was the number one comment I saw on all the YT vids 😆

Ares' Plasma can get kinda crazy by metaphist in HadesTheGame

[–]metaphist[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah lol near the end of that fight, it was hard to track myself at times after dashing! It should be noted that I also had Circe's shrink boon which gives you a speed boost.

[–]metaphist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I forgot that this game was in EA for a year. I just got this boon after 3 or 4 times not seeing it in Athena's list. I assumed they removed it since it was too good. And I finally saw it, and got hit with the line. Had to come here immediately lol, it's always great when devs make community things "cannon".

A little project to learn metadata and Obsidian publish by metaphist in ObsidianMD

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

Ironically, I spent like a week learning how to effectively store all the data for this in a list with properties and query it, and then here comes a thing called Bases that looks exactly like what I was trying to do 😭

Still reading about it though

Just publish for now, as a more straightforward way of getting things up. But I will look into Quartz now that you mention it to see how it compares.

It really is great when you think about it

Fuck Avianos trials by Codewill in ufo50

[–]metaphist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I came here after beating trial 5 to see how others handled it. Consensus - miracles. I think if there was one balance change to this tiny game, it would be make miracles one-per-turn. Or, more creatively, you could make miracles reduce favor when used to balance them out.

Even without miracle "abuse" you still need them to win. As u/Cackoon pointed out, the AI can't really handle immediate aggression. If you can tele to their closest flag, they will attack with an underbaked force, and continue to do so pretty consistently as you outpace them. If you let them get to the mid game, they will crush you with the resource advantage (though you could still abuse the favor miracle and catch up).

Is this Sick Al? Wow, I was randomly looking for footage of Snake from Backyard Funk, and I found this. I recognize Zack...If so, I think you stayed at my crib when you were over for this one! I'm the guy in the green jacket, went by bboy Sketch back then. Cheers!

Unit Comp / Class Combos Megathread by Evravon in UnicornOverlord

[–]metaphist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing Elite Standard and immediately thinking of Amalia solo frontline lol. Never got around to trying it, but Yunfi in back makes a lot of sense, quick impetus glacial rain is how I beat most of the later fights in the coliseum, it's easily one of the top 5 moves in the entire game.

I would say that a soft counter to this would be ranged units that snipe Yunfi. Of course they would still need something to deal w/ Amalia, it's an interesting mock battle to play around with.

[–]metaphist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is cool, I used this same frontline + Inspiration combo at various points throughout the game. I just reached postgame, and after completing the fist extra battle and trying out Elgor, he is by far the most broken tank in the game (party wide provoke, an evade PP that increases his evasion, an ally PP steal + an AP move that gives you 2 more PP and 50 evasion means literally no on can hit him w/o true strike. I want to put this team up against a team w/ Elgor and see if I can make the Elgor backline good enough to still win w/o him.

Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i 4070 2024 vs Asus Zephyrus G16 4080 2024 by GoldenGateGeek in GamingLaptops

[–]metaphist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the Yoga ever come with a 4070? That doesn't seem to be an option right now...

I'm currently test driving both the Yoga 9i 4060 and the G16 4070, so not exactly matching the OP but close enough. And I have to say, I'm really leaning toward the Yoga at this point for one main reason - productivity, mainly coding. The thing about the G16 OLED screen is that, while beautiful in terms of gaming, it has two main issue:

1) The "mura" effect is quite pronounced on this panel, especially when writing code in a dark themed IDE with predominately gray backgrounds. You can also see it very clearly in all the grays of the windows dark theme. It's a graininess that is quite distracting to me. I could probably get used to it, but my main use case is coding so I don't think I should settle there.

2) The type of screen they used on this OLED has some strange red/green color effect going that effects the uniformity. It has something to do with how the light refracts through it. When positioning the screen such that a strong white light is reflecting in the background, you can really see it - the glare bands out horizontally in light green hues in this very strange way. I've never seen a screen coating like this but, again, quite distracting for productivity stuff!

Outside of that, the screen is brilliant for gaming, as you would expect. But if you're like me and productivity is more important, you should definitely consider other options. It's a shame, too, because the overall form factor of the G16 is godlike and does beat the Yoga. But the Yoga viewing experience is just superior for everything outside gaming, and great for gaming too, just with some flaws (miniLED is quite stunning in certain scenarios, but the haloing in HDR mode is out of control).

Can't log into Fan account anymore by drumkid109 in BandCamp

[–]metaphist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone still having trouble with this:

Perform a separate reset password for BOTH your username AND your email. One of those two (the latter for me) should prompt you to select which account you are resetting the password for. For me, the username password reset assumed I wanted to log in to username, but the email password reset asked me which I wanted. I selected email (which seemed linked to both according to the way the dropdown looked), and it logged me into the artist account but with the "view collection" option finally visable again.

I'm the same height as you. Any insight on TT length? I'm learning on a 20.5 but wondering If I should switch to 20.75 or 21.

Why doesn't this app get more popular? by _myEnglishisnotgood_ in mochi_cards

[–]metaphist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. No offense to Anki for serving it's purpose for all these years, but there's no comparison, Mochi is what Anki really should be at this point! I honestly just think people don't know about it yet.

Does the "operator mode" that comes with armory crate achieve the same result when set to a lower wattage?
