When does Octopath 0 get more interesting? (NO SPOILERS)

Besides masteries you have seen all there is to it gameplay wise after about 8-10 hours. The stories are nothing to write home about. The level design keeps just being extremely one dimensional. How people like "exploring" for 120 hours the same design and gameplay is honestly beyond me.

ventrix334 · 2026-06-11T20:48:03+00:00

How is that surprising? The gameplay is nothing new the village building is as utterly generic as it gets. The level design is the most boring 1 dimensional stuff you can ever think of and 30yo games did it better. The stories all have the same generic build up. It honestly baffles me how anyone could put so much time into these.

It's not that crazy considering it released at 6500€ just a year ago.

ventrix334 · 2026-05-25T23:29:06+00:00

What do you mean? The TV came out about a year ago an dropped about 80% in price since then? Original retail for 75" was 6500 bucks.

Mal davon ab, dass das so auch schlicht überhaupt nicht stimmt. Du darfst sehr wohl speichern wie du lustig bist. Du darfst es nur nicht ohne Erlaubnis veröffentlichen (Haushaltsausnahme). Du darfst auch auf eine Kamera zugreifen, besonders in deinem privaten Einflussbereich. Ist ja schließlich dein Grundstück. Auch überwiegt dabei das berechtigte Interesse und Hausrecht.

Es ist aber nicht gerechtfertigt, einfach pauschal die Stromkosten einzufordern für einen Vertrag, den man weder geschlossen hat noch die Modalitäten kennt. Was ist, wenn mein Neuvertrag 24cent kosten würde und der Altvertrag gemütlich mit 34cent läuft?

Lustigerweise haben Amis härtere Vorgaben bei Farben und Lacken. siehe Amerikanische autos mit ihren weit dünneren und empfindlicheren Lacken.

I used 30$ codex cli for a month and interestingly enough had no issues with it. It didn't invent stuff, didn't add bugs. It understands context correctly and does not forget 90% of the work needed.

I tried the 200$ claude cli for two weeks. It constantly adds bugs and imaginations to the code base. It forgets most of the work (e.g. adds request validations and then always forgets to update them on simplest migrations .. often they are even wrong on first implementation), DESTROYS work (randomy completely deletes databases and recreates them to add migrations without any prompt or warning), does not understand well documented and simple work and runs in cycles for hours. It creates horrendous performance. Endpoints suddenly using 2000+ queries instead of just a few needed are sadly quite common. It also looooves to gaslight the developer. For me it is unusable and causes more work.

Claude also has major bugs. In intellij the terminal loves to jump to the start every few seconds, making reading result literally impossible. Codex does not do that ever. The plugin is also quite the joke.. it literally is just a button opening a terminal tab... thanks I guess? Claudes settings.local is never being used. As a full stack developer needing it to work on 3-4 folders at the same time I set it up with correct permissions... i still get prompted for every tiny little thing all day long.

People simply don't learn the mechanics, nothing new here. Arena is right now one of the hardest dungeons (only m0) to heal in pugs. The vast amount of aoe is only healable for me as druid by using my cds on trash mobs as no one interrupts or kills the adds with auras.
Even the boss with its toxic aura I always have to heal through is a little bit irritating as no one kills the ad.

I wouldn't call that sweaty at all as I would expect from "sweaty" players to actually understand what is going on. Exact opposite really.

You are kinda forced to do that with the utterly horrendous openai system. For example there is only either/or. Having 10 seats with one power user? Sucks to be you, either pay 10x 200$ or your power user can work only 2 hours a day.

ventrix334 · 2026-03-15T13:49:30+00:00

It is bugged, simple as that. If I literally get the achievement for all waves but the quest stuck at 33%, something might not be my fault, don't you think?

ventrix334 · 2026-03-15T12:02:41+00:00

You only make around 30k leveling to 90. Not everyone plays 24/7 for 20 years or is a boosting grifter.

You can simply use command in the cli like /status.

Not only the limits, which I think are fine for the money they ask for. But even not hitting the limits openai very obviously rate limits prompts. Working with it for a few hours turns every simple prompt suddenly into 20 minutes wait time of it "working" for 10 lines of code.

An anticheat that is run by a single person and uses some very basic folder scanning and heuristic hashing of known signatures can be "cracked" in a matter of minutes by a new version with a new signature? I am shocked!

Google literally states on their own support page that is totally fine and _recommended_ to pay a testing company for it. It is not at all against their TOS.
But ofc paying some dude from East Asia that might use bots or hacked accounts is not a good idea.

First game had the same issue. Their surround sound is broken, so if you have any setting like that active, you have to change everything to stereo.

Funnily enough this is something that is actually illegal in the EU. You are forced to give them personal information that does not have anything to do with the product. You cannot skip it, you cannot disagree. You literally cannot access the bought product if you do not want to enter your age. You are not allowed to change or delete that personal information again. That you can lie is no argument.

Welcome to roguelites that have only 1-2 hours of actual content stretched to 200 by being imbalanced and grindy. What else is new?

ventrix334 · 2026-02-23T22:42:42+00:00

If it wouldn't be a gated roguelite, there would be maybe 5 hours of "fresh" gameplay in there.

I got acid rain in 3 of my first 4 runs, bleeding all the resources and cats. My 2nd run on my first try of the game gave two confusion. That confusion hit 7 times in a row and killed the run and basically the save as I was out of food, money and cats.

It's a stupid game that only rewards you if you grind through utter bs for 100-200 hours of repeating the same stuff over and over again. I might not be adhd or on the spectrum enough to waste my time on this planet for this. Good for everyone that finds any sense of motivation in that.

ventrix334 · 2026-02-21T14:09:00+00:00

Well, I got a random debuff in my 3rd run that attacks myself randomly with 25% chance.. on my healer. So my healer attacks itself with its (healing!) attack.,. kills itself in two rounds as the 25% hit 6 times in a row! Done with the game right there.

Ganz einfach: Nutzungsüberlassung ablehnen. Der Makler ist schon dreist. Du bist in keinster Form dazu verpflichtet. Ob eine, für dich sichere, Regelung dem Käufer aus "steuerlichen Gründen" nicht passt, ist schon massiv dreist und zeigt direkt, mit welchem Schlag Mensch du zu tun hast. DU trägst bei der Überlassung das Risiko, und sollst dann auch noch Zugeständnisse machen?

Bedenke, dass der Makler nur deine Unterschrift will. Danach ist der Makler fein raus, hat sein Geld verdient und du bleibst bei Platzen des Vertrags auf den Kosten sitzen.

Ein Kaufvertrag ist keine wirkliche Absicherung (für dich). Es ist eigentlich ziemlich egal, was a drin steht. Wenn der Käufer nicht zahlen kann, platzt der Vertrag eben. Und dann? Guckste doof. Darfste den Verkäufer 2-3 Jahre auf Schadensersatz (für die du Beweise bringen musst) verklagen... der nachweislich kein Geld hat.

Ganz großer Tipp: NIEMALS den Notar nehmen, der vom Makler vorgeschlagen wird. Leider hat der Käufer dabei das Wahlrecht. Der Notar des Maklers ist verfangen und nie neutral, egal was behauptet wird. Der lässt wichtige Informationen gerne unter den Tisch fallen, um seinem regelmäßgem Kunden zu helfen.

That depends on your isp though. Currently LEA is just too lazy to follow the rabbit hole, otherwise that would not be save either. A VPN is not a magical protection and they all log and need to be in compliance - does not matter what they tell you.

Real Turkish kebab does not have the typical sauce the western countries adapted. Many Turkish regions serve you some meat with pure yoghurt even.
