 This thing kept exploding all the time, spawning minions which exploded and generating crits which gave me shields constantly. In a game with absurd runs this was the best so far Can you share saved memories?

path of dust is ultra-hard because it still spawns Pretas, the insane randomly generated enemies that got removed from the main game for instagibbing players constantly they're like the equivalent of TOME's rare enemies in that they look pretty similar to normal enemies but have like, 10,000 ranks in random skills and obliterate players on contact

The new Nuclear Throne Ultra update is out! I think my finger/wrist is really going to like the change making every weapon automatic at a slightly lower ROF. Also this brings 60fps, widescreen and a bunch of other things together. It's glorious. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehChbw2ogGE Pararoid fucked around with this message at 02:53 on Dec 29, 2023 |

Whoa I was just thinking about playing Nuclear Throne again today but decided against it because I remembered that it's not 60fps so it hurts my eyes

It was already possible to get 60fps or more in Nuclear Throne since 2019 via NTT. Cool to see modding continue of course, but I'm too pedantic to not mention that.

Looking through the PS+ catalogue on my PS5, I noticed Rogue Legacy 2 was on there. I played the first and had a good time, so why not? 160 hours. 160 goddamn hours playing RL2 since downloading it like in October. Holy poo poo this was leaps and bounds a major improvement to the first. I just got the good ending and I am not even done with the platinum trophy. There's still so much to do. A shame the game is finished and no plans for DLC. This game has a good shelf life like Dead Cells if they could add extra zones/enemies/relics/classes. Hopefully they plan to do RL3 sooner than the gap between 1 and 2.

Path of Achra seems like it's a very silly game but I'm way into the theory crafting it has going on. This seems like a bad number of runs for a first win but I can only blame myself for doing deeply stupid builds.

Pararoid posted:The new Nuclear Throne Ultra update is out! Well, I installed this and it's hell of nuts. 16:9 and 60 FPS Nuclear Throne alone is great, but it seems they've added an incredible amount of new content to the game as well. Chas McGill posted:I got PoA and it's overwhelming. Need to read the skill descriptions carefully because I made a blood goblin who just slashed himself apart on every attack and died. Yeah it's completely baffling. There's just so many loving stats and skills and variables and as far as I can tell, nothing resembling a tutorial.

There's an honestly very funny amount of self ownage available in the skills and I'm not sure why you'd ever use some of them but I'm probably just missing some hot trick

I'm pretty sure that exists and that I've taken it, you just need to play a flush house before it shows up. I hope they rectify the missing "flush of a kind" hands, i.e., acknowledge 2-5 cards of the same rank and suit. Love the demo; it's hypnotic. Unrelated, but I just picked up Shogun Showdown and that game fuckin slaps. Killer soundtrack and Into the Breach adjacent gameplay that doesn't feel so exhausting. Would recommend. malnourish fucked around with this message at 17:20 on Dec 30, 2023 |

Had a really good PoA run that got wrecked by going into I think "a forbidden gate" and having three Kolecs firing crystals at me with no cover within like 5 tiles. This was prior to the violet tower (the 2nd tower of a run) so still somewhat early in a run. Kolecs are, according to the Nemesis, enemies that are normally found in the Void. I assume this is Achra's equivalent of DCSS's out-of-depth monster? Also yes I know I deserved that splat for going into someplace literally called "forbidden".

Speaking of Rogue Legacy 2, to what degree does the meta progression and build making trivialize the game? I love it, and it controls really well, but I'm also so completely rear end at it and I've been into fighting games mostly lately so I dunno if I should give it a pass until I have time to get good at it or if I can bulldozer it with numbers.

It doesn't trivialize it imo, as it's a game more on the hard side. That's not even taking in account the ng+ stuff with harder difficulties.

I'd say that it feels less steamroll-over-time than 1 does, but still provides a significant base boost, but it also felt like I leveled base stats less frequently because of all the other goldsinks. IMO if youre prepared for the long haul you'll definitely get through it.

This was prior to the violet tower (the 2nd tower of a run) so still somewhat early in a run. Kolecs are, according to the Nemesis, enemies that are normally found in the Void. achra sometimes spawns locations which are called like crypts or gates or temples or something along those lines. basically any location that's a building but not a tower. they're always one floor, have a lot of items, and spawn void enemies instead of regular enemies. Sometimes those void enemies are the ones that have a machinegun as their attack and you spawn in an open area between twelve of them and get sunny corleoned immediately, which is why you should never go to one of those locations unless it has an item you're willing to risk the run for, or the enemy is like green demons or something.
