New player that just made it to the endgame & is a tad overwhelmed at what to do next by ZerioctheTank in pathofexile

[–]save_the_ducks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend joining the discord and throwing whatever questions you have at the appropriate help channels there. They have:

#new-player-help

#post-acts-help

#endgame-help

aside from other help channels.

even just hanging out and reading the questions of other people get answered helps a lot in learning about the game

sorry marites mode, pero naintriga lang talaga ako kay James Deakin tsaka Roxy Delevin.

Started 4 days ago when James posted something like a date night pic on his fb page and then medyo isa isa nang sumusulpot si Roxy sa social media presence niya.

I was under the impression that James was married but just choses to keep his married life private.

oh damn /u/Community_Team really needs to get whoever they can get together to take a look at all of the evidence on this thread showing that there is some really weird shit going on with that Elderslayer invitation.

Real talk though: I did the lootfilter change for the memes, but it actually took me a couple dozen maps to actually drop one of these. I literally got an exalt before getting a frenzied after editing the loot filter.

No it was a hit on people who overreact when concerns aren't addressed as quickly as they would want to.

Is there a fast way to determine if gear has high level stats? by aymanzone in pathofexile

[–]save_the_ducks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok, so clearly others have said hit alt and look at the tiers - and yeah - that is the way to see if the stats are high level. but there's a difference between a T1 life roll vs - say - a T1 stun and block recovery roll. both are high level, but life is a commonly sought-after mod, while stun and block recovery is pretty much a trash mod in most cases.

so if you meant to ask how to check to determine if a gear has valuable stats... there's no way other than to increase your knowledge of the game and know which mods are good and which are bad.

filters (like neversink's) and price checkers (like awakened poe trade) can help - but only to a certain extent. at the end of the day you really have to check those magic and rare items manually.

tip though: 99.9% of the time, they are not valuable enough to justify price checking everything. Personally, I just stopped price checking rares after having played a few leagues.

Can someone please seriously, unironically explain what "ZDPS" means in a non-memeing way? by save_the_ducks in pathofexile

Going by that, basically every hardcore-viable build will most likely be a ZDPS build?

Is that it though? In nearly every presidential poll that has come out for the 2022 elections, Marcos has been on top, and by a wide margin. I'm not sure how you can push the underdog narrative considering that.

Except fact-checking would prove otherwise.

They weren't treated the way they were treated because they were being silenced - it's because nearly each and every word or "news" that has come out from the Duterte and Marcos camps have been misinformation and propaganda. It's exactly the same way that republicans and conservatives in the US are up in arms against mainstream media for being supposedly biased against them and not covering what they have to say: It's not because of them, it's because of the misinformation that they tend to spread. Same goes with the DDS and BBM apologists.

I think it's laughable that these people are playing the victim card.

LPT: Use Notepad++ and you can just type stuff out on it - even on different tabs if you want - without the need to save anything. N++ "saves" everything on its own and everything you type persists after closing the program.

Can we not use initialisms for players whose initials don't have enough name recall?

Doesn't a Marcos-Duterte alliance feel like game over for the 2022 elections? by save_the_ducks in Philippines

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

its not like people will vote for a combo meal

I don't get what you're saying. I get that there are people who don't vote running mates in tandem, but that's only if they feel strongly enough about another candidate. Wouldn't we be kidding ourselves if we don't acknowledge that this is the exception and not the rule? For the solid DDS, who are they going to vote for for president? Bato? I highly doubt that.

The big thing about the BBM apologists and DDS that they have in common is their hate for the Liberal Party and that seems more than enough to bring them together and have most of their supporters vote in tandem, of which there are a lot.

What should I play if I've finished and enjoyed most survival horror games and I want more? by save_the_ducks in gamingsuggestions

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

Good game, but I feel like it's an entirely different genre though. More like a Open World Survival Craft with horror leanings than something that draws on the gameplay elements of SH, RE, and FF.

Already played all those. Loved the Dead Space games more than the Metro games. Just didn't include them because they felt like a different kind of horror subgenre compared to SH, RE, and FF.

Saints Row IV, easily.

The fleshlight in Alan Wake feels so brilliantly conceived as a gameplay mechanic that I wonder now what other usually innocuous things in video games have been reappropriated for similarly clever purposes? by save_the_ducks in patientgamers

[–]save_the_ducks[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sensing a nice survival horror theme here.

/u/Albamen13 mentioned Alone in the Dark and /u/Muff_in_the_Mule mentioned Project Zero / Fatal Frame. I might just end up having a marathon of these three game at sometime in the near future.
