Good. Helmet hiding is for cowards. If you want to see your pretty face you get to pay the pretty price of suboptimal armor coverage.

ImpAtom posted:In theory you're right. In practice it is very easy for people to get disheartened or dejected by something like that. It happens pretty regularly and you can see it on these forums where people feel the need to follow some guide to get the super optimal perfect build despite it being not fun to do and it ends up making them hate the game. Like there are so many games where people spend their time doing something that loving suuuuuucks because it's 1% more optimal or it gets you a trophy or something and for certain mindsets it is genuinely a game-ruining experience for them. That sucks but it's a them problem and it really shouldn't be a factor in design decisions e: a lot of people on these forums do this to themselves or push through bad games that they're not enjoying, or otherwise play a game in the most misery-inducing way possible, and I wish them the best of luck in breaking the hold of their brain worms and remember that video games are supposed to be fun, and if they're not having fun playing a game, they can just play something else.

I made this guy and I feel pretty happy about how it came out. Now I wish I had made him my main pawn instead of my arisen because I don't usually do gimmick characters like that

You can just choose to not play a game if it has a bunch of poo poo you don't like in it. I liked dd1 and loved how weird and idiosyncratic it was, and I'm excited to get more of that instead of some focus tested glop that tries to please everyone and ends up satisfying nobody

Vermain posted:regarding the slowdown in vernworth, i'm reasonably certain after playing for a while that it's because they're using one of the most bonkers physics sims i've seen in a game. as far as i can tell from overall gameplay, the game is attempting to simulate personal gravity via kinematics, so the position of your legs and where you're being hit from can cause you to topple over, even if it's as something as simple as standing on some jagged rocks while a bog standard goblin hucks a rock at you. the lag's not merely something as simple as the NPCs doing their usual pathfinding routine around the environment, it's them doing their pathfinding routine and also repeatedly checking if they're about to take a tumble or not Jimlit posted:That sucks and sounds like something not easily fixed.

GreatGreen posted:So there's reports that Denuvo is banning accounts from online pawn access in this single player game if players manually delete their character to start over. Negative Steam review says the game auto-saved their character in a stuck-through-the-floor state, so his game is effectively bricked or at risk of being banned if he tries to manually delete and start over. This reports sound like bullshit op. "Denuvo only allows you to delete and reinstall so many times before bricking your game" is what is actually being said and it's hilariously obviously bullshit. Stop being so gullible op, if it was real there would be someone posting screenshots of this actually happening and not reporting on a screenshot of a deleted forum post saying as much

Thumbtacks posted:generally speaking I think people eventually figure out the one class they REALLY like and mostly play that, but like someone said you can equip augments from any class so it's good to max out as many as you can. There's also NG+ so you can always wait and do it then, or do whatever you want. I think I hosed up playing archer first because I unlocked the darth maul class and I did not like doing melee at all, so I am now back to being an archer after 4 or so levels in mystic spear. e: does anyone know if ring effects can stack? I got a ring that makes stuff take more damage from my arrows the closer I am to them, and then I found one in a chest as well.

GreatGreen posted:Hopefully you're right and the game gets better and more varied and interesting fairly soon. I'd love to be wrong. I think you should give up, tbh. If you're not liking it for all the weird quirky reasons everyone else does then I don't think it's going to get better for you. I don't think you've made a single post in this thread that hasn't been bitching about something or repeating some dumb poo poo you found on reddit e: this probably sounds kinda mean but I really do think people shouldn't force themselves to play games that aren't enjoying or actively pissing them off, in your case. I give up on poo poo all the time if I'm not vibing and as a result I spend about 99% of my gaming uptime actually enjoying games V username/post combo V Professor Beetus fucked around with this message at 18:40 on Mar 25, 2024 |

Deformed Church posted:Pawns who are leading you somewhere really need to resume quicker. Every loving time I fight one goblin or saurian or harpy or whatever (which is about every six feet in this god forsaken hell nation) I have to spend twenty seconds faffing in circles until this one decides to start the route. It was amusing for a while when I realised I was being trekked halfway across the continent on a whim but it's been two days and I've probably only been on the move for half that time. I didn't see anyone point this out so here's a protip I just discovered last night as I was dealing with the same poo poo: you can just push up on the dpad "go!" and they will resume leading you wherever they were before.

Dragons dogma 2 is one of the best games for densely packed exploration. The world is big but every nook and cranny holds something interesting to find or do, so it's not like a Bethesda game where 90% of the big map is empty space with the occasional copy paste cave/bandit hideout/whatever.

Bussamove posted:That person is egregious because it’s obvious from her language she hasn’t played the game and is engaging in bad faith arguments she half-remembers. Framing it as “a single fast travel item costs half as much as a house!” gets way more traction than “both the house and fast travel items are dirt cheap, also they’re everywhere if you look around”. Context ruins the righteous indignation. Stephanie Sterling has a great video that lays into predatory mobile game devs but going all the way back to her stuff on Destructoid like 20 years ago, she's always been a contrarian/bad take/outrage writer and her output was 90% dog poo poo takes. Her and Robert Summa were two of the worst writers they had and it was those two that made me start getting most of my game reviews from something awful

v1ld posted:Thanks for sharing this. Even in this thread people have argued that the devs have an "obligation" to make the game more "fun" (for them specifically), which is kind of a weird way to frame criticism and speaks to the "consumer gratification" part of the post you quoted. It's not enough to criticize a game and decide it's not for you, the dev must be personally excoriated for dating to make something that you wanted to like but didn't.

It rules because games not build around stealth shouldn't bother with their lovely painful stealth systems that they half rear end and shove in their otherwise non-stealth focused game. It owned that during the palace quests I could still just run around and rob the place blind like everywhere else in the game. My "prison break" was walking in, unlocking the door, and walking out with the dude lol

jokes posted:Yeah, a vocation that mixed physical ranged with physical melee. You have to pick between them, or go warfarer. Assassin ruled We should all hone our skills arisen, a jack of all trades is a master of none. Imo there's not really a need for it outside of warfarer because all the melee classes I've played have had solid gap closing mechanics and if you're playing melee classes you should have at least one ranged pawn anyway. You just have to hope that you don't wind up with an archer pawn with nothing but poo poo abilities for say, a fight with a big lad on the ancient battlefield, for instance.

TheMostFrench posted:I feel like that area is bugged or something, because you get told that the security has been reduced since Brant has given you a gaol key and told the guards to expect you, but I've been watching people play it - They set their main quest to get the magistrate out of jail, and one of their pawns has info on what to do, but the info the pawn has is basically "I can't help you with this quest because I can't go inside palace grounds" They walk up to the entrance, and then you have to go just inside the palace grounds to the prison tower where a guard says something like "Ah you finally made it, Brant told us to expect you" but once you get inside the music is all dark and creepy which genuinely confuses people. They think they're in some kind of danger, get to the bottom of the stairs and the guards just ignore them for the first 30 seconds, but suddenly start attacking. If players fight back and run away, ALL of the palace guards start attacking them and arrest them, putting them back into the gaol they were going to in the first place. If you talk to him he literally tells you he won't leave unless you can find him a place with a bunch of books to read, which updates your quest log and says "find a place with a lot of books if you want to get him to leave." and if you're wearing the full marchers set they won't aggro on you, possibly unless you pick him up and try to kidnap him
