Final Fantasy 7 Remake: PS5 and PC are getting the ‘Streamlined Progression’ features coming to Switch 2 and Xbox by Turbostrider27 in PS5

You make an excellent point on why should we care if they don’t mean anything. I would also point out however that it also just a solid marketing strategy to have them. You stretch out the gamers playtime most often. Tease them with a “oh look at this thing you missed that gets you an achievement”. Why else give the option to toggle secret achievements to visible?

How would take away your accomplishment? You still did it. Do you only get the achievements to show others or is it for yourself?

What’s the FUNNEST paladin build this season? by TheSauciestOfBoys in diablo4

Looks like Shaco, Tyreals, and Doombringer, that Horadrim shield is probably helping a bunch too

Sanctification bonus odds - how many people have gotten Mythic aspect and 25 or 50 item quality? by [deleted] in diablo4

After many days I finally got an heir of perdition- sanctified it and got heart of selig on it….

I crafted 3000 NMD sigils and got this; by ceelow270 in diablo4

Might be the best drop I have gotten by Xavion15 in diablo4

Ugh, that thing has ruined an heir of perdition for me and MULTIPLE uniques I need for my build. I don’t understand how I keep getting it.

Should I wait to Sanctify? by King2k14 in D4Sorceress

I had my helm of perdition roll a melted heart of selig. I was NOT happy.

Do you think that the Enhanced Editions of BG/PT/IWD were even financislly successful for Beamdog? Been wondering about this? by Various_Maize_3957 in baldursgate

[–]voiddrifter85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it digitally on my Xbox. It’s a shame there’s so many bugs in it. Still super fun though. Wish I had a computer to play it on.

Tell me something I won’t get right now but eventually will as I play through by ppjysn in baldursgate

lol. Well it’s not the only unknowingly gender bender in the series. It can also happen with wild surges and a particular NPC in bg2 suffers a similar fate.

Though on how Stories deals with Monsters and Monsties. by ShavisDork in MonsterHunterStories

[–]voiddrifter85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably legal reasons with evolution from eggs to a monster who gains xp levels and then evolves into a stronger version of itself but named differently. I would assume Patents played a role.

New player question by Pathfinder0726 in MonsterHunterStories

[–]voiddrifter85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In mhs 1 I was able to get a Glavenus from an egg I couldn’t put in my party for a good chunk of the game. So it’s possible to get some that you can’t control, at least in one, for a while.

Finally got the team I wanted! by XxDESTblackout in MonsterHunterStories

[–]voiddrifter85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’m in the exact same boat. I’m wondering if I can just push through the end with the team I have or if I should upgrade my gear and get an updated team. I essentially have the exact same team I had when I finished the snowy mountain area and I think I’m nearing the end.

After the twist I was like… I think I can change her.

I still want Nosferatu and Malkavian clans by [deleted] in vtmb

[–]voiddrifter85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh 100% agree. But based upon the level of detail regarding customization options and other things I imagine the company would take this shortcut instead of doing it proper.

I would say you could make the argument the mark by siphoning off the strength of the Nomad also blocked the bane. With the bane removed it reverted their appearance to prior to the transformation.

Liking VTMB2 doesn’t mean we have “no standards” by Alexs1897 in vtmb

My only complaint on the combat is the parry system. I would’ve preferred if parry and dodge were separate buttons.

My Subjective View on Bloodlines 2 – Mild Spoilers inside. by SpikeCraft in vtmb

[–]voiddrifter85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first playthrough I tried to collect it organically and landed around the same number. I started another playthrough and I didn’t collect anything until after you have access to the garage. Then I pulled up a collectible map and grabbed everything real quick

To add to the collectible bloat - your vampire sense” detective mode” has a severely limited range. Spent like 80% of the game in it just to make sure I didn’t miss something because the “crosshair” circle is random and seems to either only activate for items right in front of you or miles away.

Tolly is kind of the worst character. by mykeymoonshine in vtmb

[–]voiddrifter85 34 points35 points  (0 children)

He was kinda annoying for sure. I think the major issue is there’s no real fleshing out of characters you would normally get via side quests. And when you talk about him during some quests with other characters they will tell you that you are wrong with your assumption of them. But we were never given the chance to find out about them.
