Unlucky7 posted:Question about the Yuffie DLC: can I only complete the fort condor matches during that first time you are out in about in town? I think I am at grade 4 and I kind of want to do something else. Note that the DLC has a chapter select system like the base game so you can go back to complete the quests after you're done with the story. Vague description of the structure: you'll go out for a mission and then come back, they make very clear in dialogue that you won't be coming back to sector 7, that's the last chance to do it but also Grade 4 is the final tier anyway

Asteroid Alert posted:Chaos is a bit too hard, but I got the hang of it a little. Feels like the game is a bit too imbalanced at this point for a relative souls-noob like me to git gud. To be honest it's pretty basic Nioh so I don't expect it to change too much. Chaos? goes from terrifying to a chump once you get his pattern down since he has huge windups on the vast majority of his attacks so you can Soul Shield anything but his fire grab with minimal trouble. One thing a lot of people seem to miss is that swapping gear sets swaps your Break Bar, and that Lightbringer (as well as the dodge Command from Dragoon) instantly refills it. You just need to keep refilling/Lightbringing when you get the chance and you can wear his stamina down pretty quick.

If they really lean into the elemental magic like they do with the grass and putting out the flame sword https://clips.twitch.tv/AgitatedEasyTitanEleGiggle-QjvChOaH0COEIz5X I'm going to be really excited about this game. Did Nioh 2 do this kind of thing?

^^You can also melt his frost sword with fire! It also temporarily stuns him, where you'll deal guaranteed crits. For both, you need to charge up to at least fira/watera. There's other minor stuff like that too, I think - aero will knock bats out of the air, and fire will cause bombs to grow.ImpAtom posted:With Black Mage the gimmick seems to be less casting spells and more that you have access to a ton of elemental variety in your combos and a lot more ways to restore MP and have a heavier focus on staggering damage than HP damage. The charging spells look to be something you set up when you want to fuckin' clear a room and they do that extremely well. It's funny, I got a really strong club by chance for Mage, and so it winds up dealing just as much (if not more) melee damage than my warrior or dragoon So it kind of just...does everything. Fast attacks, good defense, good ranged, I have really no reason to switch until I find something better for one of the other two.

Yeah, I saw someone complaining about how hard Bombs are but the trick is that they throw 3 charges of Fire at you and turns out 3 charges of Fire makes them kill themselves!

Katamari Democracy posted:Just purchased Final Fantasy XV for PC. After playing the demo I am freakin hooked on the gameplay, but it is a biiiit buggy on PC. Anyone who played this on PC have good reviews of it? I had to change the graphics settings from what GeForce Experience suggested (in particular, turning "shadows" from highest to high) because the opening broken down car scene in particular was broken as hell if I didn't (it went down to about 3fps) I looked it up and apparently that's because it disables some of the car physics for the part where you have to push it, but that somehow causes it to bounce rapidly up and down on the road surface in a way that you can't see but yet maxes out the GPU accelerated physics engine, and steals all your GPU cycles to calculate meaningless physics instead of rendering the scene. rather a shame that that happens on about the second cutscene in the game

For funsies I killed Chaos again solely with Black Mage. The job has risen in my estimation now. After spending some time doing combat casting within the flow of fighting rather than just switching for an interrupt, it feels better, and as long as I take a second to consciously plant my feet (ley lines...) a lot of my errors have gone away. (Mainly to cast Aero which juggles the enemies in a very satisfying way -- since Fire/Ice/Lightning get woven into your combo with upgrades) In boss fights, the mace may have a shorter range but it is a lot faster and causes a lot more break damage (I appreciated my AI partners a lot more in these fights compared to when I was dragooning). Where it really shines is in rooms though, as mentioned earlier a single alpha strike Firaga can clear a whole room out on its own, or if not, you can usually start chain-executing enemies and start raking in the MP while everything is stunned lol

There's Greatswords, Hammers/Blunt weapons, Spears, Fists(companion uses them), and Daggers(ditto) in the demo. If they're basing it on FF1 what would the other 3 weapons be? Staves, Axes, and Nunchuks I guess? For classes we'd have Monk, White mage, Red mage, and Thief/Ninja at least but I assume there'll be some more since the demo already has classes that weren't in FF1.

Augus posted:Nioh let you change your appearance to look like other NPCs so maybe that will be a feature in this game too It wouldn't be a world away from what FFXV did on PC, and let you replace Noctis' model with a creatable avatar from the multiplayer DLC. Unfortunately that feature was broken and crashed the game if you used it in some areas, but I assume Nioh's worked. Although the reason the FFXV feature largely flew fine as far as feeling right was because Noctis' voice was fairly androgynous, you could buy that voice and those lines coming from a woman to some extent. I can't say the same for Jack, Whose Only Books Are About War.

The jobs have doubled up on weapons already (both WAR and DRG use spears), I am gonna guess that NIN use dagger or dual swords and SAM will be dual katana.

He never calms down, so you'd never have the opportunity. Jack has three major character traits: A) Anti-Chaos B) See A C) See B

Quite the butterfly effect. Making a game you're developing available on more platforms directly causes the alienation of an entire consumer region.
