Armor strip? So, Chroma?

Not any of the ones I have lel
narrow junco
I could write a list but it‘d take a long ass time and i‘d probably forget half of them
When did you last play
feral ferry
Ehh about 5 years back
feral ferry
Lol no way before that
narrow junco
Well, all you need to do really is farm up kullervo and get a melee weapon that is at least ok at heavy attacks and you can clear all content except for maybe endurance runs
And hit damage cap
trim rock
Meh, I got access to Soulframe so whatever Warframe meeehhh! OR something
narrow junco
Oh yeah condition overload right
feral ferry
My main frames were primes of Titania, Rhino, Mirage, Saryn (kinda boring af frame)
narrow junco
That‘s on guns now
trim rock
I'm excited to do the grind again!
feral ferry
Soulframe unironically looks a bit disappointing
I get what they are going for, but the concept sounds boring
narrow junco
Yeah idk if i‘ll play it tbh
But warframe is in a really good spot now
Ever since rebecca became the creative director and took over the project
feral ferry
Ah yeah how I could forget that my most played frame was Loki Prime
I think that speaks when I played that game lol
trim rock
Yah it seems to be getting really good QoL stuff now
feral ferry
Silenced guns like baza and Loki permainvis were fun
However my builds were hard limited by shite mods
Couldn't do much beyond lvl 80
The latest weapons I got were basically Lenz and stuff which scaled okay to 90-100 with a basic crit build with hunter munitions

Soulframe unironically looks a bit disappointing
I've been playing it
It's extremely frustrating and indeed a little disappointing.
Combat is sluggish, the game has 0 direction, quests are confusing, it doesn't remotely help you, it runs like shit (inb4 beta) and it literally copies everything over from Warframe including the buggy dlss.
still spire
Runs bad? Sad to hear that, Warframe always looked good and ran good, outside of the open world.

Open world runs fine in Warframe

Warframe open world is also significantly less filled with foliage and shit
bleak pike
Ye
I say runs like shit but TBF Im always above or on 60fps on my 3080/1440p
Stutter was an issue TBF
The game was genuinely frustrating though, I spent 40 min trying to figure out a quest and gave up for good.

I say runs like shit but TBF Im always above or on 60fps on my 3080/1440p

But I'm used to games in early development and having poor perf so whatever. FSR is broken in it though, like it never resolves to the higher resolution it's trying to pretend to be
But I do enjoy the slower gameplay, reminds me of the early times of Warframe before they went all in on room nukes and bullet jumping
still spire
?? Bullet jumping was in day 1 of Warframe
trim rock
No it wasn't
Sure, maybe in the form of coptering with specific weapons, but not an intended feature
still spire
...What lol, yes it was, at least in 2013.

Not when I played in 2013

Time to play a cozy Japanese medieval village sim.
proper basin
Looks pretty
feral ferry
That doesn't look like it has anything to do with medieval dynasty
orchid prism
Same engine, same gameplay just with a Japanese flavour.
feral ferry
Unofficial conversion?
orchid prism
I assume it's a license.
feral ferry
But medieval dynasty iirc is built on Unity
orchid prism
So is this
orchid prism
Basically - Makes sense. You don't need to change a ton of gameplay to make it work in a Japanese setting.
feral ferry
No offense
It looks like it's some Hawaiian game
I don't see any japanese elements
orchid prism
I just started. It's all basic pine logs and grass for now. Stone and brick comes later.
feral ferry
This just looks some traditional maori buildings or something
Sorry, less maori but something like Hawaii or Fiji
orchid prism
Still early days. Hoping to get to clay and basic farming today. Then onto metalworking.
feral ferry
Medieval Dynasty I had a decent playthrough going, but got put off by what is basically a grindwall
Some things require a LOT of, what was it, skill points?
10k is not something you'll get in several days of playthrough
orchid prism
No skills points in this one it looks like. They use a leveling system for your entire "dynasty"
So "reach level 4 to unlock farming" from doing things in general.
feral ferry
Sounds like an improvement over the base game
I kinda wanted for medieval dynasty to basically be Anno but first person
But it was lacking content for that
orchid prism
Just finished the bridge.
It also has these predefined community projects. Like an old burned down bridge next to my village. And a shrine on a hillside.
feral ferry
Shrine? Already better than medieval dynasty
That game didn't even have any chapels or churches
orchid prism
You can visit small shrines to get some buffs similar to Skyrim and such games as well.
feral ferry
Which would be a major pasttime back then

The uncommon Nintendo layoffs
In Japan, layoffs are seen as the worst possible thing because of some whacky concept called lifetime employment, same reason why firing someone is a MASSIVE taboo

orchid prism
Also got a birds eye view of a proper manor with stone walls surrounding it and courtyards. But forgot to hit printscr 😄
Anyhow - The lore of the game is that you're in the Sengoku period. Shit went down between the lords. So you flee to this fabled peasant's paradise...except it's just as burned down and ruined as everywhere else.
So I assume this Dynasty system is basically you rising from a basic, homeless refugee into building several villages and essentially becoming a peasant lord of the region at the end. Bandit raids are a thing I know, cause there's defenses and weapons aplenty.

Hey guys, did you know that in terms of human companionship, Flareon is objectively the most huggable Pokemon? While their maximum temperature is likely too much for most, they are capable of controlling it, so they can set themselves to the perfect temperature for you. Along with that, they have a lot of fluff, making them undeniably incredibly soft to touch. But that's not all, they have a very respectable special defense stat of 110, which means that they are likely very calm and resistant to emotional damage. Because of this, if you have a bad day, you can vent to it while hugging it, and it won't mind. It can make itself even more endearing with moves like Charm and Baby Doll Eyes, ensuring that you never have a prolonged bout of depression ever again.

I loved joining people's games and trolling
It was so fun
And I loved when people did mine, a genuinely unique way to spice single player up.
orchid prism
Yeah it's always so much fun when you're trying to go somewhere, and the game is ruined for you by someone with a grenade launcher.
(Suffice to say I loathe forced PvP)
orchid prism
Also it wasn't forced
Yeah it was.
Like with Dark Souls it's called an invasion, emphasis on the lack of choice.
bleak pike
You could disable it
orchid prism
That just makes it non-PVP, not non forced.
bleak pike
orchid prism
Yes - Read what I literally just wrote.
bleak pike
But it's not forced? You can opt out?
I don't understand what you mean.
Unless you're saying you want to invade but not have PvP
And that you like to invade but not Pv aspect?
orchid prism
No, no you clearly do not. You're not asked if you'd like to engage in PvP at a given time (you might want to do something specific instead of it being a random event), you just get to opt out of the system entirely as the only alternative.
bleak pike
Sorry, I'm being a derp rn

Starfield before Starfield, actually this makes Starfield even worse if you thin...
Why are you a hypocrite
"CP2077 was disappointing perhaps, but it was playable and enjoyable on release."
But then "Oh yeah Starfield's even worse than No Man's Sky"
Talk about double standards, Starfield at least was feature complete and playable/stable
feral ferry
Good game? No, just showing that you are cherrypicking
Starfield only had and still has issues with framerate, it's stable
Which is a goddamn miracle considering it's on that engine
Speaking of, why tf would you launch a game on Bethesda engine and not launch mod tools? Where tf is what makes their games actually good long term?

@bleak pike hey since you have a steam deck
have you had any issues with the analog mode on your wooting overriding your steam deck

Shield is amazing
I really want a new model though
It's almost 10 years old
It's starting to slow down in even streaming
The pro model is what I got, but all that does is add ai upscaling, which is actually nice, but the base hardware is a decade old
It actually can struggle with subtitles sometimes due to CPU load
Also it got slower a few years ago when they added ads at an OS level

This is incredibly interesting
How Denuvo works and how to bypass its systems, as well as if it actually has any performance impacts
fringe salmon
we knew it didnt affect performance if done right but people will continue to ignore that if they want

It does seem to send a lot of requests to the game and could have impacts
But they seem to be hidden mostly behind load screens if well implemented at which point, who cares really
