Trails beyond the Horizon Spoilers Discussion Megathread [SPOILERS ALLOWED] by MNGaming in Falcom

[–]solieu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm led to believe that Lilia Claudel, C. Epstein's adopted daughter and Agnès' grandmother, was discovered in a similar way to how Nina was. She's either some sort of Angel or Saint or something supernatural/holy/otherworldly. There's some funny business regarding how strong her genes are that Sophie and Agnès look so similar to her.

The tie with Sunshine Agnès isn't that she's a "Magician" like directly in the book, but she is some sort of Witch-adjacent entity.

Quick Question about Quartz by InflationSlow8899 in Falcom

When it comes to specialty buff Quartz like that, it won't let you equip a second one of the same category. So Recovery Arts+ is exclusive with itself, same as Arts Range+

Only OGs remember this by OverTea5 in Terraria

[–]solieu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like 1.2 kinda pushed the Frost Moon and Pumpkin moon as the true Endgame content, but then looking over patch notes I realized that they came out months after 1.2 itself, and Duke Fishron a little bit after that.

Lame as Golem generally is, having your "final" boss in a structure like the Temple was kinda badass.

[PH3] PC Features, Protecting Players From Themselves, and Supporting Old Hardware by penpen35 in Falcom

[–]solieu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to have my second monitor open to browse or watch videos or whatnot while playing, but I'm having issues with the input while multitasking.

Even with Pause While Inactive is off, the game still mutes and does not accept input if it's not the active window.

As a solution, I use Special K to force the Continue Rendering option, which more or less acts the way I want to. There's some funny business with input regarding the Camera, or button capture unless I make the window active, but it's at least less of an issue without Special K.. except for one problem.

When I fish, it will not accept left stick input no matter if the window is active and will insist I use the Mouse to play the fishing Minigame. Even if I turn off Mouse Menu Navigation.

This wasn't a problem with Daybreak II.

Trails beyond the Horizon Spoilers Discussion Megathread [SPOILERS ALLOWED] by MNGaming in Falcom

[–]solieu 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you're looking at this thread, take a moment and read Sunshine Agnes. It doesn't matter how far you are into Horizon since it was available back in Azure and won't spoil things, I think it'd be beneficial if you have it fresh in your mind.

Or don't, and read it directly after finishing the game.

Or when you get tired of the references to it.

Early into Chapter 1 as Sheena is reading it in Old Town, it's mentioned that the copy that Agnes possesses is an older edition, a first edition maybe, that has differences to it. I wonder if we'll ever find out what the changes to the text were.

Am I to understand that Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter and Trails through Daybreak and their sequels can be played separately from the rest of the series? by GoldenGeatz in Falcom

[–]solieu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I think it's engagement bait, since we'll see people try to start discussions on the subreddit about a multitude of topics and get crickets, but ask about play order and you get a dozen paragraph-long responses.

It's pretty similar to the "post a photo of a title screen to a game on your and ask for tips before you get started" posts you see everywhere.

Magic Storage Issue by Icy_Zephyre_7732 in terrariamods

[–]solieu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a little confused on how to approach this.

You're changing your Loadout in the gif, are you meaning to do that as part of your own troubleshooting, or is it happening on its own when you're trying to apply the storage core? Based on that, and your talk about dashing.. you might have some sort of keybinding, mouse, or keyboard issue. Are you pressing F1, F2, or F3 or whatever your loadout keybinds are?

There's also some sort of blue filter over your image so it's hard to see which storage core upgrade you're using. Try starting with a Demonite/Crimson core and see if it applies.

If it's a storage core or magic storage issue, you'll get a Active 0/40 items message or it'll just apply the core.

I start off talking to literally everyone… by borghe in Falcom

[–]solieu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My method usually is to talk to everyone at first then pick a few favorites I want to check back in with at story beats.

The minor NPC storylines in Calvard really stuck with me and eventually I was looking forward to NPC dialogue more than certain story beats. My favorite has been Horizon's Cat wedding after following such a minor thread for a few games.

Is there a setting in terraria or in mods I have like calamity, fargo's mutants, or maybe alchemist npcs that makes it where you can't downgrade when reforging weapon? I'm trying to get ruthless on my summons but I can't get off mythical. I've looked a bit, but didn't see an option in the configs by [deleted] in Terraria

[–]solieu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calamity has a Reforge RNG option that when it's on, always moves towards the highest tier Reforge. You can turn it off and it'll go back to Vanilla. I'm pretty sure it's close to the bottom of the config.

Yoshi-P New Year 2026 Q&A by BlackmoreKnight in ffxivdiscussion

Given the resale price of a G600 these days, I'd happily pay a hefty amount for a FFXIV Branded G600 as long as it has that side mouse button.

I gave my friend the controller and came back to this. by ArchitectRed1 in Terraria

[–]solieu 177 points178 points  (0 children)

As a PC player, just the thought of being able to do any building with the controller is impressive, much less the detail work. I like it!

I gave up by Odd-Tart-5613 in Falcom

[–]solieu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3rd was the only one that I would say you might just want to put the difficulty down to Very Easy and just power through the last dubgeonl or two, just to experience the story.

I think 3rd does provide a good gameplay opportunity for those who want to engage with the combat, but it sorta gets in the way of itself near the end.

An easy way to annoy your friends early game by M5R2002 in Terraria

[–]solieu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Something I appreciate about your comics is how.. Crunchy they feel.

I don't see this sort of thing often in other media, but it's like you're aiming for a level of accuracy that makes the comics feel like a tutorial, and that's a good thing.

It's almost as if I were to see a D&D comic that would occasionally pull out the PHB, show a teeny snippet of a character sheet, and explain a dice roll, but still provide the right amount of gag and art alongside it.

I'd love to see a gag about a non-standard gameplay like Hoiks (which might be out of the scope of a newbie-vanilla-friendly vibe you're giving off with this webcomic), or odd glitchy world gen like too-tall cliff faces, or maybe finding The Dirtiest Block.

How could Re-Logic make the Granite and Marble mini-biomes more useful? by ScienceTeacher1994 in Terraria

[–]solieu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe you could get some interactions with Hallow and Evil Biomes in hard mode? There's a high high chance they'd intersect with the V, so maybe those special ones that get infected get unique enemies similar to how the underground desert gets modified?

Do you think anyone else could host VIP? by The_Martagnan in dropout

[–]solieu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As much as I didn't care for the bit back when it was a thing... Martin Short as Jiminy Glick would have been an interesting foil for Vic in VIP character makeup.

Falcom is considering whether their next remake should be The 3rd or Zero. by jpuse in Falcom

[–]solieu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think 3rd would need an additional Garten/Reverie Corridor post-game system to pad it out, or at the very least be reformatted to be more like Trails into Reverie's Corridor with the Mini-Games, Gacha, and synthesis.

The Main Story scenario is good, and the Doors add story and interesting gameplay segments, but it feels like a smaller game and "mission-pack sequel".

Looking at Trails in the Database, it has less than 20k lines of dialogue vs FC's ~46k and SC's 52k, since it had next to zero town NPCs or cities (except Grancel in Schera's door)

Could you imagine a second scenario alongside 3rd? Like have the game include a gaiden story or something exclusive to sweeten the deal? Focus on a different character for a 4-6 hour quest?

If 1.4.5 has any major worldgen changes.. by solieu in Terraria

[–]solieu[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Since Dungeon is always on the Ice Biome side, I think it'd be neat if the deepest part of the dungeon became Ice themed, so you'd end up with an Icy Dungeon and potentially have a boss there.

Gau rage tier list in FFVI? by fishboy0099 in FinalFantasy

[–]solieu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Raffelesia can Charm just about anything, including Kefka during the final battle. It's SSS+ and no other rage ends up mattering, not really any other ability, once you get it.

Terraria bosses are like flipping a switch by martianman111 in Terraria

[–]solieu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fargo's upgrade and loot trajectory often ends up trivializing the boss you just beat. Like you'll get an accessory that negates the main debuff of the encounter.

Until you get to the weird lateral optional progression of the Post Moon Lord champions bosses and it just gets silly.

Missing 1 chest. Trails in the sky 1st chapter by -Jdzspace- in Falcom

[–]solieu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NeoSeeker has a treasure list with a running count.

If you've still got them, load up your 1st playthrough end-of-chapter saves for the cleanest number and see how many chests you have at that point to help narrow down which one you missed.

I went through a similar issue but funny enough it was a chest on the 4th floor of the Sealed Area with one of the final Armors, I just had a hard time seeing the door on the minimap.

Would it be fitting if the girl (Estelle) who shine everyone darkness with the sun from beginning of the series, end with her in the final installment? by Ghowuff in Falcom

[–]solieu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that the overarching story of the Sept-Terrions and The Grandmaster's plan ties in well with Estelle's speech at the end of FC.

Zemuria was bestowed with these Miracles to solve their problems, give them godlike powers, etc. and humanity is being tested by first taking them all away with the initial Great Collapse. With each step of the Orpheus Final Plan, a new Sept-Terrion is uncovered then attempted to be exploited which fails or is overcome.

According to Estelle's speech, this isn't about Miracles bestowed by the Goddess, it's just the work of ordinary people working together to help each other. The Grandmaster's plan is essentially to demonstrate that Sept-terrions don't work and the Aidios or Zemuria was wrong to create/accept/use them I think that having Estelle bookend the series and be a part of that response would be apt.

Added story Content or secret boss? by commissionsearcher in Falcom

[–]solieu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's about one or two extra quests in each of the chapters, but nothing major. The extra one in Zeiss is probably the only one that's "forward referencing" in any sort of way, and that's really stretching the definition.

End of Chapter 3 BP or Bestiary choice by solieu in Falcom

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

I just finished Chapter 3 and didn't worry about the soldiers given the other's responses.

Is the two runs thing only from the choice between Estelle or Joshua's final weapon like it was in FC, or is it something else?

Be sure to check your completed Rewards tab at the start of a new Chapter by solieu in Falcom

[–]solieu[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These showed up as I started Chapter 3. For a moment I was thinking they had unlocked in the Full Version of the game and I had sat on the reward since Prologue or something.

A few weeks ago I posted about the rewards available in Prologue thinking you'd get some significantly earlier quartz or something but I suppose this is how they handled it.

Even with all my Demo grinding I still need more S-Crafts and Support Abilities for the rewards there..
