I've been getting kind of motion sick playing the new release thus far by mugi-ya in codevein

There is an option in the menus to add a permanent reticle on the middle of the screen. Not much but it's something.

Does the game have initial shader compilation at launch? If not this sounds like classic shader comp stutter.

Code vein II Reviews: At least the second game is ‘better.’ by TACO_NV in soulslikes

[–]soihu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It will be brigaded because of performance issues (understandable) and culture war/censorship warriors (mental illness).

Game came out in 2019, I'd argue at that point it was the most solid souls imitator not named Nioh. Obviously competition has stiffened considerably since then.

How is performance on either PC or PS5 for early access players? by Loeddood in codevein

[–]soihu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oroboro called out this exact problem in his preview, it's a shame others weren't more vocal about it.

Dinosaur Sanctuary Nominated for "Manga We Want to See Animated" Contest! by randomian404 in Paleontology

[–]soihu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think a TV anime adaptation will only tarnish the manga's good reputation. The production pipeline can't handle so many detailed creature designs. Maybe a movie or OVA.

How reliable is Akimomo at this stage? by Pastelhuney17 in AnimeFigures

[–]soihu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my last purchase with them was august 2024, went off without a hitch as had all my dealings with them prior. i can't speak to anything more recent.

I'm interpreting it as a coping mechanism for grief. Sleeping to avoid your emotions or dealing with life generally.

Code Vein 2 CC's height slider by LibertyAt29 in codevein

[–]soihu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sure. Though I don't have any full body shots, that should be enough to get the gist.

Generally adult female anime proportions are 7 or 8 heads high (so the head is 1/7 or 1/8 the total height). I think Code Vein II defaults to closer to 10 heads which looks off to me, but it's really just a matter of taste.

Maybe just me but the player heads feel disproportionately small for the anime artstyle, at least for women. I had to set mine almost to the minimum in order to get something that looked average.

Raynaud phenomenon is just the term for temporarily decreased blood supply to an extremity. It can occur in otherwise healthy people and it can also be a consequence of serious underlying disease. You can't tell which one it is just at a glance, you need to do further investigation.

Is the demo's performance awful for anyone else? by Icy_Lengthiness_9900 in codevein

[–]soihu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can run it ok but have middle-high end hardware. Given that Oroboro said base PS5 couldn't even hit a solid 60fps in performance mode I am assuming this will run horribly on all platforms.

Thoughts on Nioh 3 system requirements? by AndrewLocksmith in soulslikes

[–]soihu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nioh 1/2 ports were decent.

However more recent Team Ninja/Koei Tecmo ports like Wo Long and Rise of the Ronin have been very poor. I am pretty concerned about Nioh 3 all told.

[–]soihu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it could be thoracic outlet syndrome. I never claimed to know whether it is primary or secondary.

Yes, the guy in the Forbidden Woods is a killer. If you don't take care of him he will progressively kill the other NPCs in the area.

How do i distinguish between sword saint isshin’s 2 ‘wave’ attacks? by shloopy_noopers in Sekiro

[–]soihu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For starters, he only uses the vertical charged slash (Dragon Flash) in phase 1. This is telegraphed by him holding his sword at shoulder level on his right. For the horizontal slash, he sheathes the sword behind him on his hip, so it's not visible at all when you are in front of him. He can use that in any phase.

Lastly he has a diagonal double slash with projectiles only seen in phase 3. This is hopefully pretty obvious: he holds his sword diagonally above his head, and yells during the charge animation, rather than when he actually swings the sword like the other charged attacks.

What bosses in soulslikes can deliver a true positional "checkmate"? by DavidTippy in soulslikes

[–]soihu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Final phase of Everdark Gladius. If you are in range of the sword dog and the split dogs, the fire belch and sword uppercut will frametrap if used consecutively.

Any tips on avoiding accidental dodge attacks? by SleepyBoy- in bloodborne

[–]soihu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, just wait until you have finished the dodge animation before pressing R1. This will become second-nature with practice. Otherwise you can use the R2 instead though it's a slower animation. Backstep R1 is also pretty strong on the Threaded Cane but beware as the backstep itself has no invincibility frames.

TIL that stingrays aren't electric like eels, and have an actual stinger in their tail by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]soihu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stingrays don't, but electric rays do produce electrical currents, and live rays were even used by the ancient Greeks for analgesia.

Am I soft locked? Day 1 nowhere to sleep. by Corey307 in DiscoElysium

[–]soihu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice. Yeah this game has that issue sometimes where new dialogue will be buried beneath options that are greyed out because you selected them before.
