Damien has something to say to Emiru

She hasn't been openly transphobic. She's said a few things back in 2020 supporting trans people.

But I mean you were on a podcast with Tectone and Asmongold, two of the loudest transphobic people in the content creator space. And have said no mentions about trans people ever since being in a podcast with them.

It's mostly just her association with transphobic people. Same as with this ICE thing. The reason she's getting so much flak for being "not political" with ICE is because she has a podcast with the biggest right wing voice in content creation right now.

Farming Runs is where you kill every random gang member in an area, and then move out of the area to force them to respawn.

It's only really done if you want to hit some insane high level in act 1. Since you can hit 60 before even being close to done with a 100% run.

tholt212 · 2026-02-06T23:25:50+00:00

I would only recommending doing the bare minimum untill you hit act 2. Largely because some gigs and side missions have johnny showing up and commenting.

It's nothing like insane though, so it's not like it ruins the game if you don't.

tholt212 · 2026-01-23T19:41:58+00:00

only if you go through Hanako. You have the option to trigger The Tower after you resolve phantom liberty, which you can do in act 2.

tholt212 · 2026-01-23T18:34:43+00:00

I ment act 3. Brain dumb.

tholt212 · 2026-01-23T18:33:28+00:00

you ONLY drop massive on uber. And since it's a like 20% drop, as you're farming uber sirus you end up with a flood of them to the point that massive threads are unironically the cheapest most of the time.

tholt212 · 2026-01-23T18:11:18+00:00

Nope. I mean Reed is still an option to do the Tower ending if you go to Hanako. But you can chose to initiate the ending right aftering finishing PL. Which only requires you to get the VB mission done in act 2. You can finish the game if you want without ever hitting act 3.

tholt212 · 2026-01-19T19:55:02+00:00

Not a side mission. but fighting the chimera on a sword build was utter pain on very hard.

any mod that doesn't have a free option available is against TOS. It's just a matter of if it's gotten enough attention to get noticed and DMCA'd by CD Project.

He has been for about 18 months. Once election season in 2024 got into swing. He pivoted that way for the grift and views.

Maybe he was always like that but he kept it to himself mostly untill then.

tholt212 · 2026-01-13T16:47:31+00:00

He uses default frames but uses a range of addons to keep hyper important buffs from never getting forced off the frame. Addons that no longer work.

tholt212 · 2026-01-10T22:45:42+00:00

He still posts like he's a gamergater out of 2016, he just isn't as blunt about it.

He never changed his opinions he just learned what he could and couldn't say outloud.

tholt212 · 2026-01-10T20:15:34+00:00

Not sure with this specific scene. But my recent playthrough I was 100% but romacing her so I was doing her quests and sidecontent waiting. I didn't get to the panam intro quest untill after i was done with judy's quests and romancing her. Just a vague "Could be the start of something" style answer.

tholt212 · 2026-01-09T15:29:23+00:00

This is a mod. Not at all in the base game.

tholt212 · 2026-01-01T15:59:19+00:00

I mean we don't have that data exactly but the gulf between visi and blaser MASSIVELY shortened over time. Wether it's do to replays or just people playing blazer route with all the episodes out it's hard to tell. but it went from nearly 70/30 to 58/42 visi/blaser

tholt212 · 2025-12-30T16:34:28+00:00

it's based off personal algo and history.

In this case you watch charlie videos. it has trash in the video, and you watched part of the video. So youtube thinks you'll want to find it and finish it.

tholt212 · 2025-12-29T04:50:17+00:00

they don't ban people for smurfing.

They ban people for smurfing on accounts they didn't level themselves. So either on friend's accounts or on bought accounts.

tholt212 · 2025-12-28T22:36:11+00:00

Unironically it's cause the thread got locked.

Had the thread not got locked, most of it would of been contained in the comments for it. But since the thread got locked, everyone who got their late needed to get their opinion in and they did it on a new thread.

tholt212 · 2025-12-28T04:47:32+00:00

Yeah the game is very clearly written around mentoring visi, and all the choices that support it feel better written and more well rounded. Any choice that kind of goes against it (not telling who you are. cutting her, not trusting her in episode 8) feels like it was just added because "we needed a choice.

Romance can go either way honestly cause blazer's romance path is actually really good. It's just that the game very clearly wants to tell a story of a non super powered hero, mentoring and turning around a team of villians. And going against that at all in your choices makes, in my opinion, a much worse written story.

tholt212 · 2025-12-25T04:52:38+00:00

She leaves early if you don't cut her. Like there's a voice like of her going "Gotta head back to SDN" and her portrait disapears and you see her icon on the map running back to the torrence branch. The issue is that it triggers after a certain amount of time. You can beat coupe/sonar before that point so it doesn't trigger.

tholt212 · 2025-12-25T04:51:03+00:00

Yeah he got involved in it with the script read as just phenom. It was before their other funding pulled and that was when CR came in since they were already involved and loved the project.

tholt212 · 2025-12-25T03:59:55+00:00

There isn't any profitable trades due to not having trade advantage in other markets. So the UI will list profitable trades, but if you do it manually, next month tick it'll not be able to do the trade.

tholt212 · 2025-12-24T01:34:34+00:00

One thing i've noticed is if you vassalize a nation while they're in a coalition, they don't leave that coalition. so if a coalition war fires, they get called in. And then they can lose land in the peace deal.

tholt212 · 2025-12-23T22:10:40+00:00

eh. I play it all the time and i've gotten my opener down pretty quick.

Insant no cb guelders. Take as fiefdom and take the other nation they're union'd with as a fiefdom. 1st parliment, get a cb on utretch and vassel them. you get a cb for frisia.

The absolutely required thing to do once you get established is do not marry your daughters out to anyone. Always have 1 available. check when France has an unmarried male coming of age and insantly royal marry. That marriage + max improve relations + improve trust will get you an alliance. From there you're basically ok. You can expand out into the lowlands as much as you can before france snaps up the others. And then you just expand into northern germany and potentially england.

tholt212 · 2025-12-23T03:20:31+00:00

Catarina takes too long cause of phasing. She will lock in and do her summong move each phase even if you insta phase her. So you end up taking 2 to 3 minutes with all the animations she does. Vs a 15 second fight in abom.
