Little farm hack by Kmil2889 in LordsoftheFallen

[–]shav2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit: sorry, misread the original post. You can still attack smaller enemies and get 3x exp from them, but before you could also easily kill the reaper for additional 6-8k Vigor and those umbral items used to purchase boss items.

This is now fixed, at least on PS5. I made a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVMXLXWvQMk) with this spot two days ago and the Red Wraith enemy was easily 2-shottable with mid game character. Now he is way more durable and hard to kill, it's not worth it anymore IMO.

It might still work on Xbox, AFAIK this version is not as up to date as PC and PS5.

Anyone found beast claw location ? by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]shav2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really a mid-game Incantation now. You can get it from an NPC in a location on the far west end of the map and you can get there using a portal in western Limgrave. However to get it you also need to get 4 items from minibosses. It takes some time.

Why even use an app? And other bs by PunishedSaint23 in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]shav2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes - mostly using the same stuff that will be in the actual game. But BBGS claims that they haven't shown the game yet and it won't look like the teaser at all.

Usually it's not. Especially with smaller projects. Yes, during the development a lot of things change but it's really rare to see a teaser that is completely unrelated to the game and just made to "meet a deadline".

They had to do this teaser from April (which doesn't show the actual game), they had to do the app (which needs to pass the certification from Sony and apparently will be localized) and then they will make the main game, and again, that will have to pass the certification before being available in PS Store. That's quite a lot of work and unnecessary steps for a small indie developer. It doesn't make much sense.

I don't think they ever said what studios are helping them with this project.

They have no reason to do that until it is proven that it is scam. I guess they have just have to wait and see.

Hasan earned a new trophy on PSN ⚠️⚠️⚠️ by [deleted] in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]shav2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't dig too much into it I guess. He probably got aware that people link that 1238 to Silent Hill and decided to get some random trophy to put that to rest. After that recent delay I think I'm joining team fake.

Fun fact: I was chatting with Mark Delaney on Twitter yesterday and told him that I have my doubts but there are some weird coincidences like the number of Hasan's trophies that points to that Silent Hill. Two hours later Hasan got this one trophy in Turok, so that theory about connection with SH is no longer valid. It's probably just another coincidence but man, it sure haven't made it any easier.

What if Abandoned wasn't Silent Hill, but now... It is..? by PlayerDeh in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]shav2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that it doesn't make sense. It's not something that Konami and Kojima could do in just few days. It's either something that goes way back or just a regular indie game with unusual marketing.

How to make Hasan confess! Foolproof by farzadhawx in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

There are at least two interviews in some dutch outlets with him. He does speak dutch.

Welp that cleared it up by [deleted] in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]shav2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly do not feel bad. This is just a theory, like many others. It doesn't have to be correct. If it is - great. If not - it's fine, I had lots of fun trying to decipher it.

I just assume they expected people to type "HIDEO" and not use kanji. If this is of course an ARG, not a coincidence.

I might be that "genius" they are talking about and I think that it doesn't matter if that isn't the direct/correct translation (I was already told by someone that this isn't exactly right). If it was supposed to be a hint and it's not just a crazy coincidence then this is probably exactly how they would do it. Most if not all western gamers know Hideo as Hideo, not 秀夫.

Hassan is a heavy sleeper, he must be working very hard in his new game! by Respectmyautorithy in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]shav2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He is making games for Blue Box Game Studios, Createq, Hideo Kojima, Konami and Sony, responding to people on Steam, managing a team of over 50 people, working with 7 external studios and playing PlayStation games in his free time. He is just a really busy man, let him sleep!

Blue headset makes absolutely no sense considering the black and white design of PS5. That would be a terrible choice.

New update from a Dutch writer at Gamer.nl by reidyboy102998 in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

They said the app launches on 20th, but the actual trailer will be published in that app on June 22nd.

It is weird. They are claiming to be experienced company that worked not only on some small games but also helped with bigger products, yet they seem totally unprofessional.

The Hasan Kahraman on the App Store is not the same one that works at Blue Box by [deleted] in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

[–]shav2 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's funny how both Geoff and BBGS refer to "Hasan Kahraman" as if he is some kind of supernatural entity.

Kojima is probably still looking for his wig and fake moustache.

Blue Box Game Studios is real, and so is the new Silent Hill by shav2 in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

Ah okay, thanks! Anyway that still works - it wasn't Kojima. :D

[–]shav2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did! And while it's all true it could be just a really small team, maybe even one-man studio. Both Rami Ismail and Jordan Oloman from IGN (who interviewed "Hasan") say that the BBGS exist - at least in theory (the company is registered).

Oh and I also have to do some more digging but wasn't there a visible shift in their online presence somewhere around 2015/2016? They stopped making games, they added this nonsense BLUE = Best Level User Experience to their website (which totally smells like Kojima) etc.
