morallyobjected posted:just to add, I think there was maybe one or two times I couldn't get back to where my shade thing was to get my geo back without dying, but I do agree that some of the areas were just slightly too big in terms of needing to get to one specific area and not having any convenient way to fast-travel there. overall a really fun game, though. The only way to stop getting hit hard is getting upgraded armor. But once you go that route the combat begins to get trivially easy. Which isn't necessarily bad because the combat is my least favorite thing about the game but still. Best way to get good weapons is to either steal them from tough enemies, find them in shrines, or go to an unmistakeable area just north West of the plateau. Which is really the first suggestion.

morallyobjected posted:am I supposed to feel almost perpetually underpowered in Breath of the Wild? It seems like the weapons I'm finding, even with attack meals, are pretty weak compared to some of the enemies I need to hit with them, and the blue bokoblins in the random camps can kill me with like one jab. I fought that guy on top of the mountain in Lanayru like ten times until I could gank him without taking a hit, because hits meant almost instant death, even with defense foods.

I lost 12,000 geo somewhere in crystal peak where there's rotating platforms above spiky icy death and also ice throwing flying bugs and quite a lot of verticality, and it was entirely down to me rushing and getting sloppy when trying to get back to my shade and it was certainly chastening I'd never had cause to use the shade retrieval service either so didn't know that was an option Still didn't let it stop me though

Barudak posted:It also makes no sense whatsoever because even assuming Nintendo was all-in on wanting to sell, apple is a terrible suitor given theyre nearly entirely a hardware business. Spite posted:also apple's exec team generally hates video games with the undying fury of a thousand suns. RME posted:apple buying nintendo stuff is fueled by people who missed the fact that the App Store is already one of the largest gaming platforms and has been for a while And I’d guess people want Apple to buy (or partner with) Nintendo cause Nintendo’s hardware specs have been lacking while Apple’s stuff isn’t, while Apple can’t get the big traditional console games (outside of old ports). Besides not really needing each other, Apple tends to charge 2-3x more for that nicer hardware. And Nintendo charges big money (relative to mobile stuff) for their big games. They could both go cheaper, but they don’t need to, which is why they wouldn’t get together in the first place. Anyway back to games. I’m looking forward to Downwell. And Puzzle Bobble 2 whenever the hell that comes out. I could just buy PB1 right now but is there a reason to get/play 1 over 2? I feel like this is gonna be a Magical Drop 2/3 situation where my impatience ends up in me getting both. And Strikers 1999/1945 III, eventually. I have no clue what new stuff I should be looking forward to, but hey, yay for old games I already know I like!

Sooo the left joystick in my left joycon came completely out? I put it back in and it kinda works, except I can't get it to recognize going all the way down. I tried calibrating it, but it won't go down far enough to calibrate. I'm out of the 1 year warrenty, so what's my best solution to fix this? There's about 100 different vendors selling what's probably all the exact same replacement on Amazon. Is there one this thread recommends? And what are some good games that can be played with 1 joycon that aren't going to require a ton of thinking. Second baby is coming soon and I'm hoping there's something to play while I pace around in a circle at 1am trying to get her to stay asleep.

The SNK Collection is a great collection of games you have never played, that pretty much all work with one joycon and don't require a lot of thinking. Well worth a look (it's pretty cheap as well!)

The last level on Star road in NSMBU is the worst last level in a Mario game. Trivially easy and doesn't even feel like a victory lap because its bland and boring. The premise of following a shell you threw isn't done with any kind of tension or spectacle. Why was this the last level? Literally any of the other star road levels would have been better. I'd have gone with either the pendulum level or the p-switch race level.

The Sean posted:I grabbed Labyrinth of Refrain recently and it's pretty fun. I'm right at the end and the last boss's face is wrecking me. Not to get too spoilery but I've done 4 out of 6 steps to get access to the post-game stuff, plus I got the special spell that makes the last boss not hit as hard, and it's still too much. I've been soul-transferring characters who hit LVL 99. I'm thinking if I can bring everybody up in the 80s again it shouldn't be a problem, but I might just switch the difficulty to easy so I can be done with it quicker. It's a fun game, I love first person dungeon crawlers, but I've put so many hours into it and I just want to see the end. Kikkoman fucked around with this message at 16:25 on Jan 22, 2019 |

Are you using White Rose pact with Champion and a big stack of melee characters? Everything balance-wise shifts to melee towards the tail end of the game, Champion/Overdrive/etc is completely busted especially because it stacks with other physical damage up and defense down buffs. With a melee team + max offensive reinforcement and all those buffs that you'll make pretty short work of the last boss. I killed it in 1 hit with a crit with a Gothic Copellia and I wasn't particularly overleveled or anything. Crits are nonsense in this game.

I have one team of raptors that can crit 20K and will sometimes hit 10+ times each, but they're not exactly reliable. I've been going rear van van van rear with raptors on one side and dancers on the other, will try going all vanguard and see how that works out.

Raptors are uh... kinda terrible for anything other than speed/donum/items unfortunately. You will also get a damage penalty using bows from the front line, you really need Asters, Gothics or Bushis for melee fighting. Donum Attack is generally the best formation to use period, though Advance is fine too if you aren't casting offensive spells. I hit the final boss for 6 digits worth of damage when I crit it to give you an idea of how hard Gothics hit with buffs. BTW the Donum formations are bugged and you can use them even with duplicate coven types, because it's LoR. Gwyrgyn Blood fucked around with this message at 16:53 on Jan 22, 2019 |

I'm entering day two of being sick. I decided Paper Mario TTYD would be a good use of my day after buying it years ago and never playing it. It's pretty fun and chill so far, I'm looking around in the sets below Rogueport. My only gripe with the game is Mario's black, beady, soulless eyes. They are unsettling.
