Rollersnake posted:Do Thomas's storyline as early as possible as it's through that that you get your castle. Thomas unlocks after Ch.1 of Geddoe, Ch. 2 of Chris, or Ch. 3 of Hugo. Also give Thomas first dibs when it comes to recruiting characters as he needs them the most. I've played through the first back when it came out, but Suikoden II is near impossible to find for a reasonable price, I'll try to hunt it down though, thanks.

Ainsley McTree posted:The reflex aug is a handy one to have in general, especially if you're trying to be stealthy. That way when you find two guards standing next to each other talking, you can just take them both out at once instead of waiting for them to split up and doing it one by one, or trying to quickly stun one and then take down the other. On the other hand, I found the Stealth aug to be pretty much useless and completely unnecessary to take.

BiggerBoat posted:I finally got around to picking up Dark Souls today. Mainly, the only advice I hear is bascially "don't worry about dying. Because you will. A lot." Is it like the Dead Rising games in that respect? Not really. Just know that if you die, it's probably your fault. There's a few times that you'll die to something that's kind of out of your control, but that's not often. Take it slow, and I'd suggest waiting to check on how to do things or where to go unless you're really stuck. In PvE, most weapons are viable, so just use what you think is cool or fun. Remember that you can play through the game again after beating it for tougher enemies, and learn how to parry before you get too far in the game. If you're human, you can be invaded, but you can also summon people withing 10% of your soul level to help you out on bosses or against invaders.

A Fancy 400 lbs posted:Does The Darkness II work better with a controller or mouse and keyboard? Normally I'd always go M/KB on an FPS but the darkness arms seem to make much more sense with the four trigger setup of a 360 controller. I usually prefer M/KB, but I liked the game with a 360 controller more than M/KB in this instance.

A Fancy 400 lbs posted:Okay, thanks. One last Q, there's a Downloadable Content option in the main menu but nothing in the Steam store. Is that something that just hasn't been used yet, or is it them being lazy and not porting DLC from consoles to PC? I'm not sure about that, I haven't played the game since release, but I'd assume it wasn't used yet.

Rather Dashing posted:I've actually been holding off on playing Knights of the Old Republic 2 until the 'completion' mod was completed: that time has come. I have to admit though, it's been a long time since I played the original. I'm not really sure how to build a balanced in force powers and combat character. Any pointers? If you're playing a male character, Handmaiden is surprisingly good with unarmed, and she carried me through quite a bit of the game until I got stasis field.

Xander77 posted:Anything I should know about the FF7 version on steam? Apparently it has the proper music now - anything else that should be changed / modded? You can head over to the Qhimm forums to see if any models/music replacements catch your eye, though you'll have to "downgrade" away from having achievements for that. Don't use the bootlegger, use the 7thHeaven tool if you decide to install any mods. Nothing really necessary, but you may find something you like there. Note that the "full size" models for field look like poo poo in game.

FredMSloniker posted:So I'm finally getting around to playing Pokemon X, and the various additions to the core formula have me befuddled. Pokemon-Amie? Super Training? Trainer videos? Can someone give me a quick summary of what new stuff is worth bothering with? I can get detailed information somewhere like Bulbapedia, I'm sure, but I want to get the basic 'look into this because' rundown. If you want to just play through the game, you don't really need to worry about any of that. The training can raise your Effort Values (EV's), instead of battling, which helps if you want a "perfect" pokemon. Pokemon-Amie raises affection values, which can help in battle and (I think) some pokemon evolve from affection. Pretty much, don't bother with those features if they don't interest you, but they're nice to have if you want to better your pokemon past just leveling them.

Morpheus posted:Dang that is a good video. Can anything be parried, then? I totally did not think you could parry a giant stomping foot (but then, I guess I'm used to other games where there are 'blockable' moves and 'non-blockable' moves) The only things you can't parry pretty much are fire blasts and yellow colored abilities, which need to be dodged.

The White Dragon posted:The most important thing you can build survivability-wise is the Crock Pot. It costs 3 Cut Stone (which costs 9 Rocks total), 6 Charcoal (which you get by setting trees on fire, usually with a torch, and then chopping them), and 4 Twigs (which you get goddamn everywhere). From there, you can use it to cook Meatballs (1 meat--even Monster Meat + 3 anything that isn't Twigs), which will turn your food that, when cooked, will barely provide 20 hunger, into a dish that restores 65 hunger and a little bit of health, too. It's the biggest thing for economizing your food consumption. Thanks for the tips here and above, my friend and I played some last night and didn't know about rule 2 - we lost our stuff , but the game's really fun.
