WazzupGenius00 09/30/20 1:33:04 PM #31 | For a three-minute presentation, they shouldn't have announced it early, they should have just dropped it suddenly tomorrow morning. Instead we get 24 hours of hype buildup by the fans with the least realistic imaginations who will then blow up when their expectations aren't met. --- |

I almost completed all the shortcuts today, I got to 4-4 with the last item needed for the last shortcut and then literally just walked onto spikes that I did not notice were there. As far as secret stuff I haven't done too much; --- |

WazzupGenius00 09/28/20 2:29:31 PM #88 | X_Dante_X posted... I fought the third boss with extreme measures for the first time last night, and it was so good. Completely changes the fight, at least the first half. Really liked the changes.The second half is identical as far as I know. Maybe if Asterius is still around they might have a new team-up move or something but I've never let that happen in the first place. --- |

Topic | Blaseball: The Return of the Discipline Era |
WazzupGenius00 09/27/20 4:47:00 PM #180 | It ultimately didnt help them much. The player who became Stable was immediately incinerated and the replacement player isnt great. (Also Instability doesnt seem to be a threat right now anyway so Stable probably wouldnt have even helped at all) Then they added another pitcher to the rotation with terrible stats, which means their one good pitcher is playing less frequently than before. Home Field Advantage will probably win a few games for them, at least. Tigers made out pretty good, as did the Pies. Crabs didnt get any blessings, but they didnt get any worse either, so they will definitely be in contention again. --- |

Topic | So Advance Wars: Dual Strike is really good |
WazzupGenius00 09/27/20 1:45:52 AM #35 | Flak and Jugger also experience it passively, worse than Sonja does. But they have a higher positive variance too The damage reduction caused by not having full health happens after this calculation, so that's why it probably has to be a full-health Infantry for it to work on a Megatank, and even then it would only be a very small chance. Meanwhile Colin can just do it via Power of Money --- |
Topic | So Advance Wars: Dual Strike is really good |
WazzupGenius00 09/27/20 1:18:19 AM #33 | If my understanding of the damage formula is correct, the Infantry would have to be at full health for it to work, but it should be possible to destroy a Megatank in one shot during Lady Luck. You would have to be pretty lucky though. --- |

WazzupGenius00 09/26/20 2:09:01 AM #27 | andylt posted... I've barely tried using Nell and Rachel, I took one look at the luck based stuff and decided I wouldn't be risking that, not my kind of play style. I guess the chance based stuff is actually good in this game? I still have much to learn clearly, but I'm having a great time with it anyway.Luck means you may randomly do more damage sometimes, but will never cause you to do less than the expected amount. Technically all characters have a small amount of luck to be able to do 1HP extra of damage, Nells natural luck is just better and she and Rachel get even more during CO Power. The only characters that have a chance of having bad luck are Sonja, Flak, and Jugger. --- |

WazzupGenius00 09/25/20 2:49:46 PM #63 | mnkboy907 posted... I think I hurt myself in the fight by accepting the cast boon from Aphrodite, because having to get up really close to them to cast is not good. Without that boon I think I would've been able to deal more damage from a safe distance and would've won.earlier in pre-release that Boon was pretty powerful, they ended up shortening its range a bit and I think also reducing how powerful it is (though it still is the largest increase in Cast damage from any god). Also it has a weird interaction with Bow Aspect of Hera where it wont hit targets when you load it into an arrow for some reason. --- |

WazzupGenius00 09/25/20 11:30:45 AM #15 | -hotdogturtle-- posted... I'm out of the loop, I thought that this game was always free (and that that was part of the reason for its large popularity). When it first released on PS4 it was free on Playstation Plus so a lot of people got it that way, but otherwise it's always been a paid product Played it for the first time last night since I wanted the Epic coupon (used on Tony Hawk), it was pretty fun. Probably something I'll load up if I have ten or fifteen minutes to spend between other things --- |

There is also a Work Order that gives you an additional die for rerolling rewards whenever you pick up a key, so that keys might still be worth picking up depending on the situation. --- |

WazzupGenius00 09/24/20 2:07:29 PM #12 | My biggest piece of advice is get Athena's deflect dash literally every time it comes up. Easily the best "main" boon in the game. If you're able to get any two of Hangover/Weak/Chill in a run, the "Privileged Status" effect of the mirror can be really powerful so boost that up (other status effects work for it too but those three are usually simplest to get and last long enough to actually be of use for Privileged Status) If there's a specific build you want to go for, swap keepsakes between layers (once you've unlocked the ability to do so) to force certain gods to appear. There are only a few keepsakes that you would want to keep equipped for an entire run anyway. Double Boons and Hammers should always be priority picks. Though if you pass up a Hammer early in the layer you have a pretty good chance of coming across it again later. Early in the game I would also make keys a priority, later on you can start to ignore them. Chaos boons can become very powerful if you manage to stack multiple of them that affect the same damage source. --- |

WazzupGenius00 09/23/20 10:34:36 PM #1 | I've already been playing the game on and off for a year in Early Access but now that it has reached 1.0 I thought maybe people would like to discuss it more. This game truly is the culmination of everything Supergiant has done up to this point, refining the action gameplay of Bastion, the attack modifiers and synergies of Transistor, the lite-visual novel elements of Pyre, and the storytelling, contextual dialogue, excellent voiceover and music of all of their games up to this point. I won't be surprised to see this in many GOTY conversations come December. As for my progress, I've --- |

Topic | Blaseball: The Return of the Discipline Era |
WazzupGenius00 09/21/20 12:16:39 PM #148 | It would be more mechanically interesting if Pitching Machine had a status that made it unable to throw out runners who attempt a steal, without otherwise altering the frequency of steal attempts, and if it had zero in all stats besides Pitching. It would still be an upgrade for the Tacos since their Rotation was so bad before, aside from Pothos. --- |

WazzupGenius00 09/21/20 12:09:05 PM #146 | The Tacos received a Pitching Machine to cover their rotations duties. Functionally its just a player named Pitching Machine with three stars in every stat except baserunning. --- |
