what kind of build a Noelle enabling Furina wants Is this looking for help with Noelle or Furina? I think you just do each of them the way you would normally. Furina is primarily HP. Noelle is primarily DEF, with ER. You want some kind of geo battery for Noelle, but in the absence of Gorou, I just used Albedo. Consider Favonius weapons if the energy still isn't enough. On-field Noelle's healing should be enough on its own. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. |

azuarc 12/06/23 12:49:35 AM #354 | All respectable choices, although I like metroidvanias and I didn't find Blasphemous very appealing. Maybe because I don't play Soulsborne games, but everything is slow, deliberate, and punishing. There was also a decided lack of clarity on how to play the game (item descriptions? hello?) and for all the time I played I think I got one actual upgrade which turned some random red drippy things into blood platforms. I ranked my indie metroidvanias a few months back, and Blasphemous wasn't even #20 on that. =p

I'm really not sure how I feel about Furina. This is also a really soft ranking, and I could wake up tomorrow and swap Navia with Arl. (The first and last picks are confident, though.) --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. |

azuarc 12/02/23 7:57:56 AM #303 | So speaking of games I didn't realize what they were going in, I had no idea on A Plague Tale, either. It just seemed to get pushed routinely on Steam and I decided to take a flyer on it. This was a game I could have and maybe should have known what it was before buying, and very nearly returned before the two hour mark when it revealed a heavy reliance on stealth, mixed with horror elements. Not to undermine my OW argument above, but those are two genres I wouldn't expect to like, particularly the horror, but Plague Tale doesn't fully commit to either. Rather, it exists in this in-between space where there are some intense moments, but I'm not fully creeped out. It puts in more than the token stealth section many games have, so the experience is more refined, but it backs off it periodically so you don't have to endure 20 straight hours of it.
Agree with basically everything in the write-up. Amicia's character is great, the art and production are amazing, I was always surprised how the portions of gameplay where we were in a town or other civilized area didn't feel contrived for the sake of level design. There are a few choices Innocence makes that Requiem is better-off for not making, and there are a few minor nitpicks I could make but won't because spoilers, but overall a game that surpassed expectations significantly. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. |

It's more than that though because lots of people don't like Myst, so why would they try a Myst-like? Unique games deserve not to be reduced to a single comparison like that. More than an hour. Not the 53 you spent on ToS, but just because you wasted 53 hours on a game you didn't like doesn't invalidate people who spent 52 on something else. We have one thing in common -- we played it longer than we should have, waiting for it to get good, and it never happened. So you can likely understand my bitterness as a result. And not trying a Myst-like if they don't like Myst...is exactly my point. If you don't like sports games, are you going to play the latest Madden or FIFA? The difference is that if someone offers me Madden or FIFA, I know it's a sports game. WazzupGenius00 posted... is it even a Myst-like? I haven't played it in like 20 years but I remember Myst being a point and click. The actual movement is a huge part of Outer Wilds It's Myst x Majora's Mask. But saying it's like Majora's Mask could reasonably be construed as spoiling. Saying it's like Myst -- minimalist controls, obtuse puzzles, and a distinct lack of hand-holding -- is not unfair when I dislike them both for the same reasons. Except I also hate the Outer Wilds for its movement and for needing to magically be at the right place at the right time or you learn nothing. Anyway, I'll stop kicking this horse. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. |

To be fair it's because the first loop, which is like an hour, is so damn good and impactful if you don't know the twist. If you just played that, and then quit the game because you don't like exploration deduction games, you would still have a great experience I guess I was just always destined to not like this game, then, because I didn't even find the beginning engaging, either. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. |

azuarc 12/01/23 3:49:20 PM #283 | Oh, there are definitely times when I've been on the other end of not wanting to be spoiled. The folks in the Genshin channel probably know me as the person who very pointedly doesn't want to hear anything about leaks. But in the case of Outer Wilds, the "can't spoil it" bit was extreme. I wouldn't angrily rant against the game if I had never played it, and if I had known what it was going in...I wouldn't have played it!

azuarc 12/01/23 2:55:45 PM #281 | The game that annoyed me the most on the "can't tell you" front was Outer Wilds, which isn't even a meta-twist game, but holy crap if you wouldn't see literally every reference to Outer Wilds for a while go "just trust me bro, it's so amazeballs good but I can't tell you why." They refused to even explain the gameplay, the genre, or anything else.
At least now I think people generally know it's a time loop game. But I ultimately bought the game just to see why SO many people were giving us the "trust me bro" routine...and -- big surprise! -- I didn't like it because it was a type of game I don't enjoy. I didn't like Myst in 1993, and I haven't liked any game that resembles it ever since. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. |

Oooh yeah, Prey's a good one. Don't really think of it as survival horror but it probably counts. I would have thought of Prey long before I thought of Alien-anything. Those games are just a blip on my radar whenever I hear about them, and immediately dismissed as "licensed crap."

azuarc 11/16/23 3:18:22 PM #135 | The OG monolith from like 2 years ago that was dreadful taught me how to manage those. None of them have been remotely challenging since that one, probably because of that trial by fire. (And the awareness that anemo groupers make them much more manageable.) But also, mostly what HDT said -- not all of them go for the monolith and the ones that do can be drawn off with the right attacks, so often it's just a matter of getting the enemies' attention. The only caution I'd give is that once an enemy's AI starts on an attack (which often begins before the literal animation,) they're committed to it, and some enemies have to be prioritized as a result. Haven't done the new one yet, so I dunno which those are, but it's usually ranged attackers that are the pain because they hit with elemental attacks that do repeated damage and are harder to prevent.

Topic | Fill in the Blank 106: We Are ___ |
azuarc 11/14/23 12:04:03 AM #1 | Nominated by Great_Paul (sorta) and later Leon
When I saw the votes coming in, I thought Backstreet Boys were gonna take it. We'll consider this Halloween trying to make a comeback after Christmas took over Spooky week. Paul's version was just "We ___" and I thought that was a bit too broad. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/1/15601510.png https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/7/729981d3.png Top results: Day 105: I Want Candy (28%) Day 104: My Name is ...Slim Shady (31%) Day 103: Yes Man (27%) Day 102: No Way (10%) Day 101: Two Towers (10%) Day 100: Sonic the Hedgehog (14%) Day 99: Red XIII (15%) Day 98: Star Wars (26%) Day 97: Professor Oak (36%) Day 96: Ow my Balls (17%) Day 95: Old Yeller (29%) Day 94: Chicken Little (29%) Day 93: Holy Spirit (22%) Day 92: Silent Night (30%) Day 91: Arachnophobia (35%) Day 90: Midnight Hour (20%) Day 89: Black Cat (9%) Day 88: Dark Pit (26%) Day 87: Dead Space (17%) Day 86: Old Yeller (14%) Day 85: New Super Mario Bros (17%) Day 84: How About Them Apples (56%) Day 83: That Sucks (28%) Day 82: SHINE_GET (36%) Day 81: Captain Planet (17%) Day 80: What is Love?

Topic | KP's Top 100 Games (Win $5 For Guessing Right) |
azuarc 11/13/23 10:15:46 AM #163 | I would have guessed Dragon Quest 3 if I thought that was a valid response because it's my favorite in the series. I was worried you were going to say it was 5.
And shame on me for not recognizing that the word phoenix in a clue was a reference to Ace Attorney. In my defense, I haven't played past the third game because they're not on Steam. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. |

azuarc 11/13/23 12:00:13 AM #1 | Also Also ALSO nominated by Leon (and me)
The question here is not whether to count "what?" and "Slim Shady" together, but how to record the result. I went with an ellipsis to encapsulate the full call and response, but I'm open to other interpretations. One more from the section of my list that came from Leon since I originally thought of this one myself. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/f/fd0c6354.png https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/8/8de4bcf7.png Top results: Day 104: My Name is ...Slim Shady (29%) Day 103: Yes Man (27%) Day 102: No Way (10%) Day 101: Two Towers (10%) Day 100: Sonic the Hedgehog (14%) Day 99: Red XIII (15%) Day 98: Star Wars (26%) Day 97: Professor Oak (36%) Day 96: Ow my Balls (17%) Day 95: Old Yeller (29%) Day 94: Chicken Little (29%) Day 93: Holy Spirit (22%) Day 92: Silent Night (30%) Day 91: Arachnophobia (35%) Day 90: Midnight Hour (20%) Day 89: Black Cat (9%) Day 88: Dark Pit (26%) Day 87: Dead Space (17%) Day 86: Old Yeller (14%) Day 85: New Super Mario Bros (17%) Day 84: How About Them Apples (56%) Day 83: That Sucks (28%) Day 82: SHINE_GET (36%) Day 81: Captain Planet (17%) Day 80: What is Love?
