The future is female...

In all seriousness it’s universal that the female VA has more experience and the little we’ve seen so far she is the better one of the two.

Female VO is better in general seems to be the consensus, unless you specifically want to be a kind of scummy dude or generic tough guy.

If you think about it as a deus ex game, of the skills only stealth and hacking really have the potential to open up new routes vs just making you better at the default killing poo poo path. Does the game operate on the level where doing a mission with stealth/hacking would actually open up different outcomes? :iiam:

Doors can be locked and require Body to open

Doors can also require Technical Skill to open

And there's probably more stuff too!

so there's a lot of ways for paths to open :) But yeah reviewers definitely called out that there's many ways to approach a mission.

All of the complaints seem to be about MaleV's voice acting, but FemV always seemed more interesting to me than Mr. Underwear Model anyways. :shrug:

I thought prying doors open required the gorilla arms cyberware, which is mutex with the mantis blades. Fair point if the mod requires body to install or something though

My monitor's 1440p 144hz with Gsync, and I'm running a rtx 2070 super, anyone know if it's recommended (or even possible) to set the game res to 1080p and DLSS it up to 1440p to get the most frames, or will it look garbo?

The two worst kinds of dudes to be in a videogame. From the few previews I've seen, every scene has enough scummy generic tough guys to fill a nasty bathtub full of jerks so girl power it is.

I think doors just require body, but some doors require more and more and having gorilla arms gives you a huge bonus on the requirement or something

I have seen the scene, I have been following the issue, but the person I quoted seems to have not- and that's okay.

I'm not the one who needs proof, I put "Seizure Tool" in quotes because I thought that description was funny.

i mean in real life. thats what the lady said. the braindance flash is the same flash Doctors use for testing seizures and poo poo. idk i don't have seizures.


DeathSandwich posted:

That's literally just reflex/cool IIRC. Reflex accounts for blades and small arms, Body is big guns and blunt melee. Cool is like sniper rifles, stealth, and strength of personality stuff IIRC.

so a mix of those three than. got it.

With DLSS you set the game resolution to the output you want, so 1440p in your case, and enabling DLSS will actually make it render at a lower resolution internally

"DLSS Quality" at 1440p output usually means a 960p internal resolution

I was joking with someone about this last week, like how you can clip into someone's head and see their teeth and tongue and eyeballs but with a dick and ended up figuring that the game would just... cull the dick to keep it covered. But nope, guess not! That's amazing

I have never bought anyone an avatar or text of any kind.

And I find the game breaking to be very funny. Do you not find it humorous? If it makes you feel better I will probably get the game at some point (whenever I finish with Hades, maybe).
