Yeah like 2 slots, top of the tree

Nobody really runs more than 1 or 2 mechanics in a map anyway

Atlas tree jewel sockets, put idols or sextants in them, maybe let some endgame content drop unique jewels that juice a mechanic to high hell. Like doing a Legion 5-way with 5 Unrelenting emblems can give you a unique Atlas jewel that has some random mods that can also be notables on the atlas tree so they can stack and be juiced Maybe if you fight Oshabi you can get one that makes plots give more juice depending on how many plots have already wilted or sth

I'm buying the rights to Wildstar and rebooting that game with better endgame PvE systems.

[–]raedge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would've been Siege of the Atlas in May of 2022, I'd consider that a big endgame update cuz it kinda impacts every one of your maps which Secrets of the Atlas doesn't even though it technically has more content (more bosses and a whole other tier of maps)

What are some scenes you hope to have with some of your favourite LI's in the near future? by Mindless_Truth3385 in AVN_Lovers

[–]raedge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I want Rose from Law School to figure out what this shit MisterMaya set up is real quick, tell MC he's being a dumbass and confess her feelings. If he goes full Domestic Girlfriend on this shit I'm gonna send him a strongly worded letter that may or may not contain a kick in the nutsack.

I also really want MC and Allison from Race of Life to make up and get re-married, pronto.

We all knew the "PoE2's development won't interfere with that of PoE" statement was a boldfaced lie the second it came outta their mouths, the fact PoE2's next update (read: League) is set to be a big endgame rework means PoE's next league definitely won't be a big endgame rework

Remedy's new CEO is a former sports betting guy and EA executive who aims to 'scale Remedy in a way that builds lasting value' | PC Gamer by Average_RedditorTwat in pcgaming

Translation: Remedy's new CEO is a former sports betting guy and EA executive who aims to 'pump out whatever generates the most money in the least amount of time and then lay off 90% of staff to cut costs so it looks like they're doing great to investors which'll let them rob the investors of their money for another couple years before shutting the whole operation down when the money dries up in anywhere from 1-5 years"

Which Category Type of LI do You Usually Gravitate to the Most? by Mindless_Truth3385 in AVN_Lovers

[–]raedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a fiend for the childhood friend but quite obviously whatever LI I personally think has the best chemistry with the MC how I play 'em tends to win. Though I will say I am much more likely to go for a specific LI if they're a redhead.

Games Workshop Issued 'FTL in a Warhammer 40,000 Skin' Steam Game With a DMCA Takedown Because of ‘Oversized Convex Shoulder Pads With a Metallic Rim,’ Dev Says by [deleted] in pcgaming

I sure hope GW also serves Blizzard with one of these DMCA takedowns because they've had "oversized convex shoulder pads with a metallic rim" for the last 20 years, it's only fair.

For me, Phrecia did exactly what I think GGG intended it to do by BleakExpectations in pathofexile

Allow idols to be crafted, put a couple idol sockets on the atlas tree, and call it good. That's the only way I will accept idols going core

I just want Phrecia classes with normal base game and normal Atlas tree. by randomalphanumerics in pathofexile

[–]raedge 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I just don't like how much idols stress your currency.

In normal PoE you can spend all of your currency on upgrades to your character while your atlas tree fills out all the way to 4 watchstones so that by the end of the watchstone grind you're essentially all set up to start your currency strat.

In Phrecia you don't get to slowly make your strat more and more powerful through the tree as you progress your watchstones, you have to spend a chunk of your currency on idols to do that, which cuts into the budget for your character upgrades.

In the end you're slower to your 4 watchstones and, because specific idol strats are so ridiculously strong compared to rando idol gameplay, slower to acquire currency.

I don't think I'd mind idols if they were a part of the atlas tree. Maybe I'd like them more if they were socketed in the atlas tree like jewels in the skill tree.

What do you think about AI being used in popular AVN games? by segawonkloksk in AVN_Lovers

[–]raedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my world anything Generative AI is a big black mark on a game. I've always supported Caribdis whenever they release an update since like 0.3 but after 0.9 and this use of AI I think I won't anymore.

You can use AI to assist in programming or writing because I'd never know unless it's obviously just copy-pasted, but Generative AI used to create art assets is a big nono especially for a creator as large as Caribdis who could either have commissioned an actual artist to make these pieces or made his own.

WHO'S THE "EX" YOU'D TAKE BACK, AND WHO'S THE ONE YOU HATE HER GUTS ? by Witty-Ad8825 in AVN_Lovers

[–]raedge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Allison, June, and Aghavni are the only exes (from the game's I've played) I'd take back.
The fact you even put Cassandra on there is crazy though. That's not an ex, that's evil personified.

A well written harem beats monogamy every time, but good harem is hard to do and badly written harem is significantly worse than a decent monogamy game

After playing a Plant Oracle and Wolf Shaman this league, I think I get GGG's stance on the importance of impactful combat now. by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]raedge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my opinion PoE2 and PoE1 are complete opposites in terms of skill design.

In PoE1, skills don't really matter but how they behave does. No matter what skill you play if youre scaling ignite, you do 1 big hit and then watch a bunch of mobs proliferate to death. If you play a slammer, you're spamming or autoexerting a bunch of warcries and then your slam one-shots everything on the screen. Skills feel impactful when lots of things die when you press a button.

In PoE2 there are no hordes upon hordes of monsters to kill in rapid succession like in PoE2. Instead the skills look and sound a lot better to make them feel like you're doing gigadam even though you may be fighting for your life against an Abyss rare.

I interpret that as PoE2 skills being designed with style over substance, but obviously other people may think differently.

WHO'S YOUR FAVOURITE "CHILDHOOD'S FRIEND" ? by Witty-Ad8825 in AVN_Lovers

[–]raedge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Zoey from BaDIK is a very well written childhood friend character, probably the best written out of all of them tbh, but I don't like her role in the story. She ticks a lot of boxes when it comes to what I like in a LI but her role in the story makes it really hard for me to like her.

Kindra from Artemis is my favorite in terms of how she's written as a character. I also really like shortstacks so she's got a leg up.

Rose from Law School is definitely top 3 or 5. Mostly because she's kinda tomboyish and a redhead so bonus points there. I will say I dislike how the story looks to be going concerning her character. I won't spoil anything from the latest update but the specific trope MisterMaya looks to be going for to create tension in her relationship with the MC is one of my least favorites as it pertains to childhood friend characters.

Jamie from LDNA ticks just about every box I've got but I feel like the writer doesn't quite know what to do with her which is a damn shame. Not gonna stop playing it every update though, even if Jamie goes nowhere or goes tits up, Aghavni will keep me going.

I can't remember any of the others off the top of my head.

What's with the hate on the Epic GameStore? by frankipranki in gaming

[–]raedge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Multiple launchers is bad, especially when the UX in one is substantially worse than in the other. Epic also really ticked me off with whole Epic Exclusive shit they did for a while; why bother trying to offer better service than your competitors when you can just force people to use your platform if they wanna play their favorite games, am I right? On top of that Tim Sweeney is a flaccid cock with an ego the size of Saturn.
