Hoarder's syndrome often prevents them from reaching their full potential. Well, you see, I had hoarder’s syndrome, but then Avlora’s assault happened and now I have no items. Quote O O O O F F F This actually was a fear I had as far back as when the game was first announced, that the story defining traits being bound to random dialogue choices and completely invisible would not end up well and, yeah… I mean, I get that that’s the point and all, I’m just not sure I’m actually having fun that way. Like, it might be fun to watch as my choices directly led to the downfall of the continent, but not so much when I was screaming the correct solution at my characters and they didn’t listen because I didn’t tell that one generic soldier than Hyzante would be a cool ally while the enemy forces who’d just pretended to be our allies were at our doorstep, ready to infiltrate the castle and capture the prince. If that makes sense. Quote It's... a bit weird. It's better What’s better? Better than what? Quote Hey, good for him! It's more than he does in the maps. What are you talking about? Double thrust go brrr. Quote Hide contents Yeah, I wanted to smuggle the salt. Truthfully, that doesn't have to be considered the evil option as much as the smart option, but still. I just wanted to add international smuggling as one of my many crimes. Ahaha, I like how you can see the difference between us here.

I want ten games with Gangrel and Garon as the main characters. The League of Gs, we can call it. I nominate JGedah as the third member. I think he'd be great without an opposing protagonist who's supposed to be taken seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are you gonna go "fix" every RPG where faster characters deal more damage total than the actual heavy hitters then? 3 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Shiver Star's landmasses look identical to Earth's when viewed from space. And given the shopping mall devoid of actual shoppers, fans have claimed Shiver Star is our planet after we got wiped out somehow. Humanity has ceased to be, but our great temples of conspicuous consumption remain. Oh yeah, i do remember this. Forgotten Land's concept as a whole is basically Shiver Star expanded to a whole game, with different biomes and whatnot. 15 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Ahhhhh, there he is! There he is!

With any luck, the creator might consider doing a quick update that unlocks the paralogues. It seemed like a fairly simple process, but with my extremely limited knowledge and the relative clunkiness of 3DSFE's hacking tool Paragon, I couldn't manage it without breaking the mod.

BrightBow Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) I wonder if in future Dark Souls runs I should just stop playing before doing any of those rushed lategame areas. Like, just kill Smough, Ornstein, do the DLC and call it a day. Can't say I even found fighting Gwyn any fun. After all those fancy DLC bosses, it's so weird to still have to do this boring guy who does nothing but run up in your face and swing at you. And of course just like in the Demon Ruins and Lost Izalith, you have to run across a large field filled with nothing, just to get there.

Sooks Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 So an unintended side effect of changing the worldline my stats: instead of Picoletta joining, I got Hossabara, who is basically the troubadour of this game. Troubadours are cool. Furthermore, her design is cool. I’ll probably use her. So yeah, this was a good choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troubadours are cool. Furthermore, her design is cool. I’ll probably use her. Thaaat's the one I was talking about earlier. Honestly, Hossabara claims to be the troubadour of this game, but she only has one healing spell, and if you're anything like me, she won't use it that often. Nah, the thing about her is clobbering things in the head with a club. That's what she's all about. Offense with a side of healing, not the other way around. 2 minutes ago, Sooks said: So yeah, this was a good choice. Yeah, I think so.

Saint Rubenio Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Problem 1: I have trouble beating maps without Frederick's help, but Frederick takes up a precious deployment slot. Someone needs to take the boot. Problem 2: I was re-reading the earlier pages and when Acacia suggested I use Sumia, he said "Sumia, definitely." The "definitely" makes me believe he likes her and would like me to give her an honest, passionate shot. Problem 3: I fucking hate Sumia's worthless fucking guts so much. She's worse than Donnel. DONNEL. I cannot justify her presence. At all. She's a complete waste of space and that's it. Flying only lets her get to the enemy faster so she may deal less damage than Donnel and then die. 4 minutes ago, Benice said: Why do all of the characters sound like their names are car models?

Sooks Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 So interesting thought I just had, by using knowledge from later at this part of the game (spoilers) Spoiler In one of his side stories, Gustadolph says something about a “new pawn” but perhaps he “should be wary of his own family most”. Later, an event from Svarog comes completely out of nowhere, where his son’s body makes it back to his territory, despite the fact that Svarog hasn’t had any screen time in like 5 chapters. Maybe I should be wary of him… But he definitely wants revenge against Dragan’s killers the most, so if we can convince him of the truth, that it was Aesfrost… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As weak as an argument as this is, i guess i can humor you: I shouldnt have to, the fucking morons that develop the game should be doing this, it isnt that difficult to grasp. It took me a total of a few days to figure out the root problems, and i'm ONE PERSON. But you wouldnt understand since you generally focus on games that are on the easier side.

Saint Rubenio Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I wasn't sure how I'd handle chapter 5, until I realized, hey, this hack changed most routs to defeat commander, and if I leave Ricken in range of the wyvern closest to him, that makes the boss charge forward from the start. Ricken was also given a prf, Grafcalibur (because of course it's Grafcalibur), which is effective against fliers. All in all, it seems designed for a quick commander defeat. Which isn't great for my experience levels. But I still managed to nab a few kills here and there. 11 minutes ago, Sooks said: So interesting thought I just had, by using knowledge from later at this part of the game (spoilers) Hide contents In one of his side stories, Gustadolph says something about a “new pawn” but perhaps he “should be wary of his own family most”.
