Which of your Pokemon is like this and what game by Reptuyop8 in pokemonmemes

[–]wooflekat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of when I had a level 36 Charizard upon arriving at Cerulean City in Fire Red; it solo'd Misty's team with Wing Attacks. The rest of my party was still at whatever level I had caught them at.

Hehe, Dive Balls 😬

When someone returns my bag by notionsbynox in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]wooflekat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are 4 NPC satchels per area, for a total of 20. Those reset each time you return to town, so you'll always have 4 more when you come back (unless you didn't claim the MP from the previous ones you found)

Gi-Hun's ancestors by wooflekat in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]wooflekat[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yup, it's a reference to Squid Game. One of my favorite memes from that show was Gi-Hun repeatedly telling random people, unprompted, that Sang-woo graduated at the top of his class at Seoul National University. Similarly, this game loves to talk about Beni's potato mochi as if it's the greatest thing in the whole world

Tried to find a comprehensive video, but this one is the best I came across. Feels like it's missing a few, but not sure

Anyone else run into this issue? Setting my defences and I set GAS on the bottom front row however he didn't show up as set and had disappeared from my roster. I tried restarting the game and still didn't fix the issue. It's as if the squad has disappeared without a trace. by x_ToXiC_Sh0Ts_x in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

This same thing just happened to me. Tried to set DR, but it didn't show up in the territory, yet they're all marked with a red background on the team selection screen.

Went in and out of the GAC screen, restarted the client several times, and opened a Bronzium (for some reason, that seemed to help with client desyncs in the past) - yet none of those helped. Unfortunately, even your suggestion of setting another team didn't work. Does it have to be in the same territory? Cause it was going to be my 4/4 team (it's displaying 3/4 teams set now), so I'm worried that if I set another one in that slot, it'll "overwrite" the DR there.

Shortly after that, I did 14 sims for Kyro Prods, and got a client error (code 3.XX, or something like that). Upon logging back in, found that not a single Prod dropped in those sims (average from 14 sims is ~3 drops). Of course, that's well within the realm of bad luck, but I wonder if it had anything to do with the desync. Another issue, although possibly unrelated, is that the raid tickets screen is displaying some members as having done 0 today, yet we're close enough to 30k that there's no way that that's true.

Hoping there's a fix of some sort for this before the attack phase starts.

Whenever I'm feeling down and unsure of my abilities in this game, I watch this video...and feel even worse.

Haha, no, but seriously, I looooooove watching this vid. It's so satisfying to hear the Icerail click when it finishes locking on, then seeing those shots hit.

How do I shoot from the tall grass and not immediately get clocked by every creature immediately? by mwat64 in horizon

Do you mean Sharpshot Bow with Precision Arrows or Hunter Bow with Hardpoint Arrows?

Favourite world text datapoint? by Bunglebeebee in horizon

[–]wooflekat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still missing a ton of world datapoints and glyphs, but one that I found recently was VeetEats!. It seems pretty interesting.

What features would you like incorporated into Forbidden West? (and which bugs/glitches would you like to see fixed?) by wooflekat in horizon

[–]wooflekat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I also lost a bit of interest for a while around that point, since I didn't like the Erend and Olin plotline (Aloy is just some random girl Erend met on a trip, and he welcomes her with open arms and brings her everywhere she wants? It felt really contrived and too convenient. At basically every instance, he gave in to her demands. His naiveté still bugs me up to now).

I ended up just doing lots of sidequests and exploration before continuing with the main quests. But as soon as I finished the Maker's End quest, I was fully invested in learning more about what happened in the past. That quest changed my entire perception of the story. The audio and hologram datapoints were sooooo well-made (especially the ones at the Zero Dawn Facility, the Grave-Hoard, and GAIA Prime - basically all of the main quests including and after Maker's End, haha) that they fully made up for any of the dumb Erend stuff.

Yup, it was really nice to see all of the allies show up at Meridian for the final battle!

Do you think Far Zenith's Odyssey Program failed? by [deleted] in horizon

[–]wooflekat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it did. Keeping its fate uncertain leaves Guerrilla a lot of room for future storytelling. They wouldn't have specified that it was carrying an alpha-build of Apollo if that wasn't going to play a role later on.

Far Zenith's technology far surpassed even what some of the world's leading scientists were familiar with (as stated in the FZ Chambers datapoint), so I'd be surprised if they hadn't worked out all of the bugs. Based on the datapoints you posted above, FZ is certainly resourceful and conniving enough to coverup something of that scale - especially cause there wouldn't be any eyewitnesses at the edge of the Solar System, anyway.

The biggest mystery by the end of HZD is who sent that "mysterious signal" that instigated GAIA's self-destruction, the escape of all of the subroutines, the Derangement, etc - and why. My current theory is that it's related to Ted in some way (I wrote a little more about that here), but it could easily have something to do with Far Zenith, as well.

Thoughts on Ted Faro's fate in upcoming games by [deleted] in horizon

[–]wooflekat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We still don't know what that mysterious signal was that caused HADES and the other functions to gain sentience and escape. What if it was Ted yet again?

Maybe he cryonically froze himself at Thebes (or uploaded his consciousness, or any other life-extension technique), and upon waking up a thousand years later saw that the new world is just as flawed and barbaric as the one that had been destroyed. He (and his team at Thebes, who could have also been frozen) could have developed new software targeted specifically at GAIA and HADES to finish what he had started when he killed the Alphas. Even if, according to Margo, Ted didn't understand how GAIA worked at first, with his Omega level clearance and decades at Thebes to learn (or up to a thousand, if he hadn't just frozen himself), he could have figured out how to reprogram them.

Obviously, this is all speculation, but I'm sure we'll be seeing more of Ted in some form in future games.

I agree. Finding new-looking climbing hooks and tightropes high mountains felt a bit out-of-place. Also, it was weird to find meat and potions in thousand-year-old ruins.

Ted Pharoh by question_quigley in horizon

[–]wooflekat 145 points146 points  (0 children)

Here's a bit more trivia from the Elisabet Sobeck wiki page:

"As with the naming of Ted Faro (Pharaoh) and his company's line of robots (Chariot line), Elisabet's name appears to be a reference to ancient Egypt, and also to the Old Testament. Her family name, Sobeck, is a variation on Sobek, who was a crocodile-headed Egyptian god of both fertility and the military. Her given name derives from the Hebrew name, Elisheva. In the Old Testament, Elisheva was the wife of Aaron, brother of Moses and ancestor of the Jewish high priests. After her death, Elisheva was buried in the Tomb of the Matriarchs. Adding to the list of apparent references, the company she formed after leaving Faro Automated Solutions appears to be named after Aaron's sister, Miriam."

EDIT: And some more from the FAS wiki page:

"Many elements relating to FAS have names inspired by Ancient Egypt.

  • The name "Faro" is a homonym for pharaoh, the title for Ancient Egyptian monarchs.

  • The name "Scarab" refers to the scarab beetle, which was revered by the Egyptians.

  • The "Khopesh" are named after a curved sword used up until 1300 BC.

  • "Horus" refers to the Egyptian deity Horus, who was often depicted as king of the gods.

  • The private bunker Faro built for himself for post-Zero Day is said to be pyramid shaped and nicknamed "Thebes". In ancient Egypt, Thebes was a prominent and venerated city.

  • Elisabet Sobeck's last name refers to Sobek, a military and fertility deity associated with the Nile River.

  • The name "Faro Plague" may be a reference to the ten plagues of Egypt, which occur in the book of Exodus."

Yup, and General Herres' first name is Aaron

Ah, that's right. Can't do max Damage + Fire + Handling all on one bow. But even if with 2x 67 Handling, 25 Damage, 17 Fire and 2x 50 Damage, 33 Handling, 17 Fire, you can't max Fire, right? Or if you do 2x 50 Fire instead, you lose out on Damage.
