Let’s see an Apex Slaughterspine now  (Is that on VH? I always feel my raptors are TERRIBLE at actually attacking poo poo but it might just be a them dealing with multiple enemies since I was clearing outposts in the last few days. )

One of my salvager contracts still shows as incomplete (even though I’ve done the entire salvager line since it shows as completed on the main quest)

I got the PS4 physical version as I'm currently playing on a PS4, however I'm considering trying for a PS5 today. If I did the upgrade to the PS5 version, would it have to be using the disc, or could I turn it digital? Ie would I need the disced edition

Happy Noodle Boy posted:Let’s see an Apex Slaughterspine now Yes, I'm playing on VH. One thing you always have to do with the perma-raptor pet is set it to Aggressive, even if he sometimes annoyingly aggros a machine pack 10 miles away. If you don't, then he'll get Mount AI and almost never attack anything. Here's another fun thing you can try, if somewhat gimmicky and expensive: 1. Fully upgrade the Wings of the Ten blastsling and Nora Thunder Elite armor. 2. Mod the sling with 2x critical chance, 2x close-range damage, and 1x explosive damage. 3. Stroll right up to any elite machine and tap Rank 3 Ranged Master + Dodge Lob. 4. Kill literally anything in the game in two volleys. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV2k9fMiMDc Main drawback here is that blast bombs are super expensive to craft and you're gonna blow 5-10 of them on every elite kill. Selling everything they drop pretty much lets you come out even though. And it's very satisfying to do.

If you're asking what happens if you separately buy the digital PS4 version, it'll give you an option to download either the PS4 or PS5 version.

It's a shame that the biggest score driving complaint about the game are cut scenes and dialogue being quite long. That's not a bug, it's a feature. It's a story-based action RPG. You play it, in part, if not a large part, for the cut scenes, and the banter, and the lore/world building. The fact that facial animations and voice acting quality are superior to most other games ever made is a central element of the game. Worst of all you can skip with the bottom left dialogue option 95% of the time if you want. I really just don't get the complaints.

I just wish you could skip line by line all of the time. I read much faster than they speak, so I get impatient to go on. Are there legendary versions of each of the armor types? And is the sunwing post game?

I really like the dialog in this game. I understand the complaints of it being kinda long winded but for me the details of the facial animations and body language keeps me engaged. There are lots of info dumps but the speakers always have some personality or angle on it.

And for the sunwing its not postgame it's more like 75% into the story you get it in the penultimate quest so I'd say it's about 95% not 75% lol I understand why they did it that way but it's kind of a bummer that you basically only get it for clean-up purposes, especially being someone who obsessively does a bunch of poo poo before I get to those points lol.

The only question I have about the facial animation is about Aloy's smile. I have to imagine it was intentional it looks pained and forced most of the time?

The smile she's seen the most in her life is the Happy Birthday message, right? The forced smile of a dad who knows he's not gonna get to see his family? It's consistent!

Something that struck me but shouldnt think to hard about and just suspend disbelief: How come the sea-levels are so high in zero dawn world? Has been a thousand years of post-glacial rebound, only major explanation i can see is a greenhouse earth scenario where there are no ice caps locking up water, but Frozen Wilds kind of speak against that scenario.

Aloy has the worst facial expressions of all characters, its not even close. Sometimes it seems like they used the ones from HZD and only redid everyone else.

If you don't, then he'll get Mount AI and almost never attack anything. Is this true even if you use targeting arrows? I've also noticed that non-Aggressive machines suck at attacking, but wondered if the targeting arrows might be a way around that (because it's annoying having your mount constantly run around - even when there are no other machines around, he'll just constantly jump around when I dismount).

If you save the 60 Second Glide for your last Trophy, you can actually pick your Platinum screenshot to be literally anywhere in the open world. I was pretty sick of my plat screenshots for other games being buried in a menu upgrading a left-handed fart redirector or some dumb minigame, so I wanted one that was pretty for HFW. Technically spoilers in-frame so   I didn't know it was going to paste that dumb frame on the bottom, but still pretty good overall

The biome collapsing being relatively easy to achieve, sustaining and getting it right is hard.

Honestly the rapidly changing microclimates all over the place are weirder. But it's a video game and the scale isn't even supposed to be realistic. Having a "water level" sort of zone around doesn't stick out to me too much in that context.

For some reason it seems impossible to do this "Reap and Clear" melee challenge. I've tried like 20+ times and it never lets me do the final R1 + forward + hold-R2 (which I've tried in a bunch of different ways). The initial combo is also extremely inconsistent. It just randomly doesn't work, even with identical timing. edit: Oh you've gotta be loving kidding me. The instructions lie to you! You're not supposed to press R1 again after step 2. edit2: Okay, beat that guy. Now I can do "The Enduring" I was also pleased to find that apparently the machine overriding legendary armor and the stealth legendary armor can both be bought pretty easily.

The game does a poo poo job actually spelling it out but yeah essentially the different combos can be chained together but it’s very opaque about what you can chain. The charged R1 is considered a R1 for combos purposes so it’s not an additional input. Basically the fighting pit will show you three combos but will want you to do it as one combo and you’re meant to link the last hit with the first hit of the next.

The tooltip pop ups are good for one thing at least lol-- I think those told me that you could chain the combos. Still a loving pain in the rear end to do, and I really really wish you could actually melee machines past like burrowers...
