redreader posted:Since I've already played it and don't care, are there any ways to make it significantly easier at the start? e.g. get shotgun early somehow, or get neuromod X first? If you didn't know, there's a way to get the shotgun real easy once you get to the Lobby. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tktiYRpL9jw Although if you have the pre-order DLC then it's not much faster I guess.

scaterry posted:What the heck are reployers used for? Is there a lore reason? All Reployers are actually "Even Greater Mimic" enemies that have disguised themselves as a totally unique thing but it also turns out that they're super lazy and they don't bother attacking anything.

HoboWithAShotgun posted:No one really knows how they do it. I think the top theories were that they literally changed places with an item from another dimension, or they used some power of suggestion to force onlookers to see a cup instead of the mimic. Even the game is pretty inconsistent about it. On one hand, the objects mimics turn into can phase though the floor and walls and act like a real object wouldn't, suggesting that they don't actually turn into a different object but only make you believe that they do (and mess up in the process because they're dumb alien animals). On another hand, when Y(o)u turn into objects using the mimic power you don't break the laws of physics and can in fact operate the objects you turn into, such as turrets and operators. Either Mimics and Y(o)u have fundamentally different powers that do the same things, or the way they work is completely different or Arkane didn't want to bother with spergs that would over-analyze all the tiny details.

Do yourselves a favor and play all of Arkane's games. Some of them are better than others but all of them are great.

Deadly Ham Sandwich posted:I am on my second game. I haven't gotten morph yet on this play through. I am kind of surprised at how many doors/entrances you can open with the recycler grenade or Nerfgun. Nerfgun even works on computer screens. Have you tried holding down the Sprint button? It's supposed to speed you up to 10m/s or something like that.

Maybe they're planning on going Dishonored 2, Prey, Dishonored 2 DLC, Prey DLC? I hope so, I'd like some DLC/Expandalones for both games.

You guys do realize that he purposefully shits on every single game, including his favorites, and that those videos aren't intended to be taken as serious reviews, right? Cause oh boy do I have news for you otherwise. Did you know that The Onion is (gasp!) not real news?

Rinkles posted:According to people with actual numbers, despite making the NPD top 10 -- sadly but predictably -- Prey sold poorly. Prey sold half as many copies on Steam as Dishonored 2. Which isn't many but it's not *that* bad is it?

Rinkles posted:IPs are just a medium for expressing creativity. I'd prefer for them to stick to their own stuff, but that talent should shine wherever it's applied. I don't care about IPs but my personal opinion is that Arkane makes really good games while Bethesda makes mediocre games and if it was up to me then I'd rather not give Bethesda any excuses to boss around Arkane's creative process.

Has anyone made a mod that turns Mimics into fluffy kittens yet? I beat the game once and it's loving amazing, just like everything else Arkane makes, but since I'm a massive pussy I unfortunately don't think that my heart can take another playthrough.

double nine posted:i'm curious, do mimics trigger people with arachnophobia? They're somewhat similarly shaped but don't really move in the same way so I wonder. I don't think they would. They don't have that that "robotic" movement that spiders have, mimics move pretty fluidly most of the time, nor do they have fangs or any sharp features. If Mimics moved and looked more like insects then that would've been really hosed up. CaptCommy posted:They didn't for me, but my arachnophobia is more low key. The only ones that really get me are the big furry ones, like in Dark Messiah (which I powered through, but god drat) That place in Dark Messiah sucks. It's only saving grace is that if you move really slowly then you can actually see the spiders waiting to ambush you, giving you an opportunity to use all the fireball scrolls you've been saving just for that place.

Kai Tave posted:Jesus christ the Technomancer in Fabrication scared the poo poo out of me. I thought my game was glitching out when this massive misshapen Operator looking thing flew through the doorway right into my face. Q-Beam is pretty much made for that. Especially because it does AoE damage after something explodes so you can start by killing one of the turrets and it'll damage all of the thing. Combat Focus helps too. Alternatively, the Stun Gun and EMP Grenades are good too.

Speaking of which, what's the point of using GLOO in combat? I just couldn't find any combat use for it at all. Sure it would let me stun an enemy so I can get close and smack them but the time it takes the GLOO Gun to stun a Phantom could just as well be used to just run up to them and smack them instead. Either way you get only one hit since the GLOO falls off them when you hit them.

Ravenfood posted:Until I got it fully upgraded I found that using it was a liability compared to pretty much any other weapon because the movement slowdown while firing made me take more damage than I would have otherwise. You can fire the Q-Beam either from a very long range where you're way more safe or you can also fire it in bursts just like any other weapon. Although to be fair, I mostly used it on big targets from long range. Or from stealth where I would do about 50% damage with Q-Beam and then the other 50% with some other method once detected. Incessant Excess posted:How am I supposed to deal with military operators? I put all my points toward being able to fight well with my shotgun and those guys are an enormous drain on my resources. Are you supposed to just run past them? I really hate this part of the game. Upgraded Stun Gun one-shots them if I remember correctly.
