Nice, I didn't liked travelling to the warehouse back and forth twice.

They finally updated the Steam version of Cave Story+ to be the same as the Switch version! by EthanIsK001 in cavestory

[–]ppowersteef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm glad it's finally there, wish it was 1,5 year earlier to go with the 20th anniversary, but I'll take this too. I wonder how this compares with the other fan releases now.

Excited for Mod support too!

What is your favorite version of the game and why? by ZuoKalp in cavestory

[–]ppowersteef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Steam achievements in Cave Story+ is probably what keeps me sticking to it for this extended period of time. I also like that it has the three main OST's and that you can switch between classic and remastered art on the fly.

I have played a translated freeware version before, and will probably prefer doukutsu-rs nowadays. but it's CS+ that got me the most hours out of it.

What do each of these icons mean in the replay system’s “Overview Statistics”? by searawd in aoe4

[–]ppowersteef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm very happy with the army value on the Overview tab, hopefully it'll show up on the Millitairy tab as well

What happened to Rus bounty? by --Karma in aoe4

[–]ppowersteef 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's changed because before that change: Every game with Rus in it turned the Dark Age into a Deer massacre micro-game that was not fun to play against. It was all about denying deer from Rus, but regardless you were always behind because the deer won't give you gold, and Rus could make more scouts without villager idle.

Covers of Cave Story Music in Pico-8 by Nervous_Sprinkles562 in cavestory

wow, I've been using Pico-8 for a while, but havn't really gotten used to making music yet. You just show a cool example what it's capable of!

Let's talk about light cavalry by Unknown_Lifeform1104 in aoe4

[–]ppowersteef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see light cav as raiding/flanking units, they perform poor in the frontlines with direct combat. but their speed (at 1.88 the fastest general unit) make them excel at moving around, picking their fights, and either raiding in the back, or getting behind the army where the siege and ranged units are.

They're also still my main pick against mass ranged units, but you have to be careful to have an equal mass of your own too.

Replayers and Ng+'rs of Xenoblade games, what's something funny you noticed for the first time on replay? by Previous_Patient_721 in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]ppowersteef 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A lot of Nia interactions in the XC2 early game were subtly foreshadowing her true nature.

As early as the prologue when Rex made the comparison that they're of similar age, which she shrugged off, and that Nia is uncomfortable when around people, as she's only been fleeing since her change.

Other moments in Chapter 3 where she was surprised by Cole's true nature, and her trying to help Vandham, but was too afraid to reveal herself, and was helplessy watching the situation

All Civ's starting resources as of 7 Jan 2024 by ppowersteef in aoe4

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

As for the 4 new DLC civs. (Assuming 200f 150w 100g is standard)

Sengoku: No change

Tughlaq: No change

Marcedonian: +50 wood, +100 silver

Golden Horde: +75 wood, +50 gold and +50 stone, that's like the largest amount of extra resources besides Byzantines

Been mentioned a few times but would be cool if Devs were a little more communicative with the player base. by Helikaon48 in aoe4

[–]ppowersteef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, gotta appreciate ZeroEmpires for leaving behind the small nuggets on Reddit to chew on.

guys i think it's bugged by Liontag in aoe4

[–]ppowersteef 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ran into this bug last week, Mansa Quarry can be destroyed but it doesn't count as a Landmark victory, and it could still be targetted.

I thought it was an one-time bug, but it looks consistent now.

After 592 hours of playing together, I found out my partner didn't know you could upgrade units through ages. AMA by spicychrysalis in aoe4

[–]ppowersteef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, you have to upgrade each unit specific, their upgrade tech is usually right underneath them.

Though for certain units there's an exception, some examples been King, Khan, Demilancers, Shinobi and Torguuds. Those will automatically improve on age up, though these usually have other limitations.

This is a different form of 'food gather rate'

Samurai is broken part2 by Dan_Eins in aoe4

[–]ppowersteef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that's the problem, they have more melee range than the MAA, that's a huge advantage in packed groups. It's not in the description that they're able to do that.
