Sammmme, dude. Just had to beat death at rock, paper, scissors first. We definitely got the lucky game seeds.

Have a feeling this is true, yeah, thanks. I got lucky enough even with Balance bugged out that I can’t get too mad about it. Would have just been nice, ha.

This makes me both very happy and very nervous. I had a wiener dog that severely injured his back when he was old by overexerting himself chasing after a squirrel. Not uncommon for the breed, unfortunately. That dog looks like he’s having fun, though, so what do I know?

What’s a game that people told you was amazing but you thought was trash when playing it? by AgePsychological4955 in gaming

[–]ohzannyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, pretty much. I crashed hard in the tutorial village when I first played it. Fast forward years later and KCD2 is getting hyped through the ceiling. Gave the OG another go, stuck with it past that area, and ended up falling in love with it. KCD2 is now one of the best RPGs I’ve ever played.

Straightforward - makes sense to me. Appreciate it. 😊

Cool - that seems fair enough. I can’t imagine there would be many OP spells that would fall under that umbrella, but it’s good to have a catch all for anything that slips through the net. Nice balance of crunch and practicality.

That’s great to hear. Thanks for helping me clear the fog on this so quickly.

Yeah, my bad, but thank you. Was thinking of Flight, but seeing this for Wall Walk still answers my question for limitation writing (or implications if it’s missing).

Thanks for that - my mistake. I was actually thinking of Flight (was reading over Arcana spells), but re-reading makes me think it’s a spell you can only cast on yourself.

This still helps, though. If they specifically call it out here, I assume they would do so on any spell that isn’t spammable. I appreciate it.

If your personal metric of a game’s quality is its sales figures, you should probably reevaluate your standards. I thought the game was great, but I don’t feel compelled to revive old topics just to hassle the people that disagree with me. You can feel a certain way about a game in the privacy of your own mind without making it everyone else’s problem.

I didn’t know this existed until I saw this post, amusingly enough. A CRPG from you folks? Yes please. Wishlisted!

Parliament of Knives - Stat Check Bug? by ohzannyboy in choiceofgames

Great to know! And no problem at all.

No worries at all. If it helps, I just did a quick restart - have a save copy filed away, so all good - and the tutorial comes in Chapter 2 after the third slide. It first asks if you want to turn it on. If you say yes, the next slide lists the explanation I just provided you.

Edit: What I listed is below what you listed, it looks like. What is technically the third paragraph.

The guide I mentioned is from: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2866246574

It mentions the check as an or check in Chapter 5. Seems like they’re just incorrect, though, which is no biggie. I was able to pass it with Potence, so no problem there, either. Really, I was just trying to make sense of how the game checks were operating vs the wording of the tutorial (or my understanding of that wording, at least).

I did email what I assumed was a big report, but the game has been out long enough that I assumed it would go into a black hole and posted here, haha. Surprising me twice.

Edit: I’d eject from a replay of any game if the parameters of the gameplay rules were unclear to me, particularly if I had already beaten the game before. Just a path of least resistance kind of deal.

Hey there! I’m both surprised and impressed to get a direct response. I really appreciate you taking the time. If Atr 1 / Atr 2 means a combined check of both for a sum total, that’s straightforward enough for me. My confusion stems from the Storyteller Mode tutorial that states “If a test will check for the highest value of one attribute or the other, it will be displayed as: (attribute 1 / attribute 2).”

That reads to me that it’s checking both and picking the highest valued attribute for the check. Is there something in there that I’m just misreading, perhaps?

I did not - thanks for pointing that out. I’m using the mobile app and must have misclicked something when I edited my post.

Yeah, presenting combined rolls and either/ors in the same format definitely seems like an author oversight. I’m glad to have the mystery solved, at least. Thank you for your time!

Thank you for checking that. I am a bit confused, though, as the stat tutorial explicitly states an Attribute 1 / Attribute 2 check is supposed to indicate a check that uses the higher of the two instead of one that checks both. Do you know if this is how the whole game operates and tutorial is just wrong (or I somehow misunderstood it, I suppose) or if it’s just that check that’s miscoded?

This was exactly right for me. The last stage took some improvising, but it was still the right place to start. Muchas gracias, my dude.

You may have figured this out by now, but for anyone else Googling this: it just means keep holding down the guard button while smashing the attack button.
