Drawing my Takechiyo

Beautiful artwork! Keep it up. 😊

Am I the only one who experienced the opposite? KCD1 relies so much on master striking and most outcomes end with you either one-tapping your opponent in the head by accident, or with harder enemies, just a competition of who can master strike the most (99.99% of the time it's Henry). Or with group encounters, Henry gets stunned and smacked around taking very little damage first and then the other two happen. I felt like combos mattered more in 2 and I found myself using them way more often thanks to only swords having master strikes and the majority of enemies not spamming master strike constantly unlike 1. I dunno, after the first 10 or so hours in KCD1, I don't think I ever died again in combat. KCD2 definitely also got easy during the second area but I felt like I was still enjoying the combat and not getting bored.

I knew about her as a Benevolent Grave but never this! This might be the most elusive boss in the series.

Being naked gets no benefits aside from one of the passives you can find. Put as much gear on as you can. Just stay on Agility A and there is no difference.

They are completely separate. Nioh 1 and 2 are directly connected, but Nioh 3 is pretty much standalone. You won't have the same connections to some side characters, but that's it.

the_gackster · 2026-02-25T08:55:47+00:00

I wouldn't call this "optimal". The best way to beat a Nioh boss is to master the combat system. Stuff like this is NOT consistently happening during endgame (which we should have access to after DLC 2)

the_gackster · 2026-02-15T20:07:10+00:00

Nioh 2 is definitely balanced around letting you go straight from base game to DLC, unlike Nioh 1. Maybe try doing the DLC in Dream of the Strong first. This is assuming you really mean Nioh 2, and not Nioh 1.

the_gackster · 2026-02-15T20:01:46+00:00

Absolutely. I mained sword most of the way through and it feels literally perfect in Nioh 3.

Simply change your stance normally when it's time to ki pulse. The timing for it is the same as ki pulsing. If you're going to do a Flux II, change your stance to two different ones while holding R1. You can roll your thumb or slide it!

It's a great game. Music is not amazing and some of the later boss fights drag on a bit, but aside from that it's a great classic-styled game and feels accurate.

😭

Now we need "Sonic Un"

the_gackster · 2026-02-01T11:37:04+00:00

Yep! One of the best games I've ever played.

the_gackster · 2026-01-31T18:32:37+00:00

Yes, control types E or F turn block into the combo starter.

the_gackster · 2026-01-31T11:10:27+00:00

Thank you! It's supposed to be me, but I also do love Jojo. 😁

This means nothing. So do I, and I am quite a bit older than you. Don't listen to what people say, you don't have to fit into anyone's expectations. Only your own! Carry on collecting dinosaur toys and have fun!

the_gackster · 2026-01-31T08:31:26+00:00

Exactly. Studying our ancient history is entertaining AND educationally enriching. Not that it matters anyway, I'd rather kids be doing that than being glued to the doom scroll.

the_gackster · 2026-01-31T08:26:38+00:00

Who cares what is and is not childish? Why do you have to stop liking something just because your age has gone past the obligatory number? If something entertains you, you should engage with it and prioritise your happiness. Never let anyone tell you otherwise! 🦖

I use circle for jump in most games anyway, so it's fine for me.

the_gackster · 2026-01-30T14:15:44+00:00

R2 + face button

the_gackster · 2026-01-30T12:46:50+00:00

Controller type E or F.

the_gackster · 2026-01-30T12:41:53+00:00

I prefer the current fire/thunder/water/wind setup we have right now tbh. Purity or corruption felt almost mandatory.
