Quantum of Phallus posted:Can't wait for this one. Zero Dawn is one of maybe 3 open-world games I've played, finished and enjoyed in the last 20 years. So good!!! ShadowedFlames posted:Less than a month away, boys and girls and those outside that binary! I think the trailer that came out today is the first thing I've really bothered to watch in the last few months. The combat demo where you save Erend is the last thing I watched and I sort of decided from there that I just wanted to experience things as they happened in game instead of knowing they're coming. Gonna reorganize my game cabinet this weekend so I can put my big gently caress off mammoth next to the PS5 I think

Not like Toxx-level, just an informal poll basically. Kind of hope he's just not around and only related in that it's still his fault we're in this mess. I also somewhat expect the antagonist mentioned in the trailer to be a fakeout

I already don't like soulslikes for the most part and I have negative interest in any story that GRRM wrote so I'm probably not even going to look for streams or whatever out of curiosity. It'll probably win tons of awards though I'm sure.

This was basically my thought process on buying it lol. Also my roommate (at the time) got the one for Zero Dawn so I have first hand experience on how cool the figures looked for that one, making this one a bit easier to justify.

I've been mostly running a melee build because I like the challenge and also combos are fun and goodness I haven't even started the post 15 msq and found a purple armor in a chest just messing around that might just carry me to endgame Though it does have a couple significant elemental weaknesses I'll probably need to make sure I keep a backup around for.

Captain Hygiene posted:Well, that's what got me curious, I spent a while scrolling around toggling them on and off, and I only saw the one I'd cleared. I guess I haven't made it close enough to one for it to show up with all the map cloudiness. Have you gotten to the third major area yet or are you still in No Man's Land? Once you get past a certain point in the MSQ the other ones all show up on the map, unless there are some secret ones even further west than the last one on mine.

Aphrodite posted:All Slicer gauntlets have explosions, if you catch them 3 times. I find myself using the slicer gauntlets a lot more than I expected to when I first tried it out. Ever since the mission with Boomer where you're not necessarily forced to use it but it's heavily implied that you should. I usually only use the normal ones though, the acid ones feel like they don't build up very fast and aren't worth it. The only two weapons I never really use are the Ropecaster (feels like anything I would bother using it on just breaks free before I can lock them down but I haven't tried the elemental versions, and I'm bad at hitting the canisters swinging around when I use that option) and the Warrior Bow. Am I missing something with those two or are they just not great? Yesterday I finally finished upgrading my pouches so I can just stop thinking about them forever, finally. I also did the underwater cauldron and am up to level 41, a little more than 62 hours in. Guess it's finally time to do the level 17 MSQ branching path, I did the other two first because with POSEIDON I correctly assumed that's how I'd get underwater breathing then did DEMETER second (a few hours later) because I pieced together that if POSEIDON gave me the water thing then DEMETER would give me the plant thing so I can finish that and move on with the game. ...or I could go to Thornmarch to help Talanah because the last salvage contract and (I think the last) hunting grounds are on the way... e: also regarding valor stuff, I've been using the level 3 melee buff one for almost the entire game because it's fun as hell to just run into a big fight and turn into an absolute murder machine with all the damage you put out IcePhoenix fucked around with this message at 16:53 on Mar 1, 2022 |

The melee combat in this game has improved so much and is much more varied with all the combos I highly recommend people give it a shot. Obviously I don't use it against bigger enemies but anything that's not the size of a small building I'm more than happy to just pull out the spear and just start whackin'. Once you start learning the tells so you can dodge out of the way of their attacks you can pretty much avoid taking any damage at all.

Lobok posted:You can still use it against bigger enemies, just either have to anticipate their attacks better or disable them first. Frost bombs are always great and I'm loving the new Adhesive status for that, too. Once your melee skill tree has got some of the bottom filled out you can combo your way to a Resonator Blast pretty quickly for big damage. maybe I'll try it next time I just always seem to get owned by something that I can't figure out how to dodge. When you say bombs do you mean from the blast sling or traps? I actually haven't used the sling because I haven't found one that I really like element-wise but I know I want to give it a shot because I used it a lot in HZD. Also it's fun to use shredders on big machines (especially after I've corroded them) which requires me to be at more of a distance so I can catch them

Went to finish Talana's quest chain insteadof doing the msq and then went to the nearby city afterwards to buy gear and uh, spwnt so much on new weapons and subsequent upgrades that I just about ran out of shards lmao. Also, oh god I need so much greenshine stuff to upgrade all my new stuff...

FrickenMoron posted:Don't invest too much into greenshine weapons. Theres only enough slabs to upgrade one or maybe two at most. Well poo poo I hope I haven't already spread myself too thin, that's really annoying. Is there a spoiler-free list of greenshine weapons anywhere I can look up so I know in advance? Although at least the sharpshot bow I bought and started upgrading is almost definitely going to be one I choose, I suppose.

Oh they released a patch today https://www.reddit.com/r/horizon/comments/t4x320/horizon_forbidden_west_patch_106/ There's spoilers in it so I'm not gonna post the whole list because I skimmed it really fast to try and avoid spoilers for stuff I haven't gotten to yet.

It says Level 18 , I'm level 16 , should I attempt it? level recommendations are kinda fungible in Horizon, the only thing you gain by leveling up is two or three skill points and 10 HP. You can be wildly underleveled for stuff but if you gear, skills, and fighting ability (as in, how good you yourself are at the game) are good enough then it really doesn't matter unless something does enough damage to literally oneshot you

I played HZD so I kind of know what to expect but I don't wanna go into it and then get stuck being unable to continue. Someone already mentioned this but yeah just make a save at a nearby campfire (all cauldrons have one really close iirc) and reload from there if it's too much for you. That one isn't too bad though you should probably be fine.

Hollismason posted:How do you complete the very first hunter trials where you have to shock 3 enemies? I shoot the powercell and it just gets knocked off or it doesn't shock any surrounding enemies. to pop an elemental canister you have to shoot it with an arrow of the same element, hitting it with a normal arrow will, as you have experienced, just knock them off you'll get a different sound and then the canister will start "leaking" for a couple seconds before exploding if you do it right

iirc when I did that one if you jump down the rope on the left side immediately there's a goodly sized group of them together right under a log trap and if you pop them right away (if you wait too long they start to patrol and break up) then hit the trap it gets you all but one for the requirement, then it's just a matter of figuring out a way to lure one into another trap with the rest of your time. It took me a few tries to get it.
