Terraria is an amazing game and I've gotten my ten dollars out of it ten times over at this point. The dev kept putting out updates for practically another two games worth of content over the years, all for free. It's pretty amazing. One of these games that have only gotten better, I keep coming back to it.

Anyone know what this is? All I know is that I want to punt the main character into a loving furnace because everything about him is abominable. The hat, the style and worst of all the loving poo poo rear end pixelated dreamworks smirk rear end expression. Disgusting. I'm angry now. I hate this game. Is it any good? edit: this motherfucker calls himself a rational centrist and pretends to be a pragmatic liberal but in his dark heart he's just some MRA weirdo edit2: best dressed failure in the comics shop motherfucker edit3: showed up to class photo dressed like this dipshit edit4: "why the snyder cut should be shown in all classrooms" (4 hours 45 minutes) Black Griffon fucked around with this message at 11:11 on Jan 23, 2020 |

Jamfrost posted:I have my eye on Temtem and Monster Crown to fill that Pokémon hole. Siralim 3 is doing an okay job so far. I grabbed Temtem because it is the kind of thing I've wanted to see since I was 10 years old. It's currently pretty stable, but there are still bugs cropping up for me. I'm keen to see how it goes long term because it's looking somewhat promising so far. I picked up Siralim 3 on my phone because we were traveling a lot throughout January. I ended up lucking into a pretty powerful combo that swept through the storyline. There's a heap of content past this, but I'm yet to really get deep into building and customising different line ups; there are seemingly some decent resources with breeding lists and traits lists but they were a pain to navigate through on my phone. Overall I enjoyed my time with this so far and have picked up on Steam to carry my save over at a later date (I do really appreciate the ability to transfer save from phone to pc).

Overall I enjoyed my time with this so far and have picked up on Steam to carry my save over at a later date (I do really appreciate the ability to transfer save from phone to pc). Yeah, it's a fun game to play on your phone but even though the game has all the information in its in-game menus you really need to do some planning outside of the game on a bigger screen than a phone if you want to do the endgame stuff in it. I got it for my phone because I knew I liked it from the PC and it's hard to find fun games on Android. People complain about discoverability of Steam games, but Android is 10 times worse. Or there really just isn't much good stuff on there. Back on topic: I have a pretty neat setup right now where I'm comboing some cool stuff together to make my team instakill the enemy half the time like this: Avatar creature: Regalis At the start of battle, your creatures that belong to this creature's class share their innate traits with each other. This trait does not stack. Nether creature: Nix Shadowjumper When an ally dies, this creature attacks 4 random enemies. Nether traits: Scatter Shot - This creature's attacks deal 30% of the damage dealt to all enemies. Charge - At the start of battle, this creature attacks 3 random enemies. Empty slot Unicorn Vivivier This creature's attacks have a 50% chance to resurrect a random ally with 50% Health Unicorn Thundercracker This creature's attacks have a 50% chance to move a random ally to the top of the Action Queue. Reclusive Wight After this creature dies, it has a 50% chance to resurrect all allies with 35% health. Apis Protector This creature is immune to debuffs. All this on a Chaos Mage that gives all sorts of bonuses to attacking. I gave all the non-Death creatures a Seed of Death so they're all Death creatures and all share their traits (not the nether ones) together. Synchronizing to the same class like that is a must if you're going to use Regalis' Avatar. I'm not sure that the Apis Protector is essential as continuous resurrection clears debuffs as well, but getting your turn coming up while under Scorn (can't attack) and Silence (can't cast spells) is super annoying. I had a slightly different team with Dread Wight (After this creature dies, it has a 50% chance to resurrect with 100% Health) instead of the Unicorn Thundercracker that focused a lot on never dying, but I kept getting owned by Elf Barbarians (The enemy creatures' effects that activate when they die are ignored.). Then I added the Thundercracker and gave my Nether creature Charge and now most battles end in my favor before I even get a turn. Does make it harder to extract cores. As my final Nether trait I want to get Piercing Focus (While this creature is below 80% Health, its attacks ignore the enemy Defense) but it comes from a special type of creature that's harder to find, which I didn't yet (and when I do find it my team will probably instantly kill it before I can extract it).

StrixNebulosa posted:Demoncrawl: why the hell is the storekeeper selling a dead rat. Who would buy that. Why would he stock that. Why. I've been experimenting with Witch builds after learning the damage reduction you get from holding omens (like the rat) can get to 100%. And if you can do that, the rat is one of the better ones to have, 'cause you don't need hearts if you never get hurt! I thought I was being real clever one run by poisoning myself a bunch on a Toxic stage and getting enough omens to never take damage. Except I still took damage, from all the poison. Funny how that works.

So during the Winter Sale, Valve introduced animated chat stickers and effects, but stuck an expiration date on all of them. People rightfully pointed out that was loving stupid, and Valve removed the expirations. Now during the Lunar Sale, Valve introduced animated profile backgrounds and mini-backgrounds, and stuck an expiration date on all of them.

If they're going to make it a timed thing, they should just give it out for free and take it away in a month, nobody would complain. On the other hand, the story snippets are cool.
