Romanmir, rok temu do gaming w Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of October 15th

I started up a new Terraria play through this last week. I’ve beaten most of the Pre-Hardmode bosses. I’m about to hoik through the door of the Temple to gather trap materials for my house.

It’s been fun. Though I’m having trouble getting an obsidian farm going on the current version.

Last time played was during the first “final” update… 1.2 I think. And there’s a loooot that I haven’t seen yet.

Well shit. A previous update removed the ability to farm traps until post-Golem. RIP Golem cheesing using spiky ball dispensers.

tamlyn, rok temu do gaming w Do you know any good JRPGs with engaging gameplay similar to SMT?

Of course all Atlus games have kind of a similar gamplay, but SMT gams are more challange than most of the others. But with Soulhackers 2, you are about as free with your team as in SMT and is has some challanging enemies you need to prepare youself. But it’s about the same as SMT, so let’s try to find something new.

Maybe the trails games would be interresting for you. Trails of Cold Steel 1-4 or Trailf of the Sky would be two points to start into the series. Sure you have a party with different kind of strengs like in typical jprg’s, but i think the battle system helps a lot if you want to try different kind of strategies on hard bosses. The Trails of Cold steel games are not just turn based games, they have a fighting area you are able to move youself to get near the enemy or get away from the and attack with range attacks. Attack could hit in different areas as well, so you strategy is not just about the skill and attacks you use, but as well about the positioning on the field. Often that helps a lot to overcome enemies. The armor and weapons you equip are also help you do skill your characters very differently. Give a fast character a lot equipment with avoid stat, and this char will probably never been hit again from physical attacks.

A lot jrpg’s have it’s main party and you limited to their abilites, not like in SMT, so probably a monster catching game (SMT is more or less one as well) would be good. I think the Digimon Cyber Sleuth games would proabably a good recogmondation. Yes it’s a Monster Hunting/Farming game you play 3 Digimon at the same time, able ti switch them and all of them heve their elements and atrribute, which gives them advantages and disadvantages over others. I would recommend to play it in hard to get about the difficulty as a SMT game and it could be a fun experience for you.

I’m the mod of a jrpg community, maybe the people there would post more interresting titles, because of haven’t play everything.

I’ve been wasting time with Noita and BG3 as of late. I played Noita before leaving for work today, so the most likely thing to happen is I set myself on fire.

I’d probably get beaten up when I had too much of Lae’zel and Shadowheart threatening each other and I finally popped off “Are you two going to fuck or not?”

MouseWithBeer, rok temu do gaming w Do you prefer playing with Keyboard or controller more, and for what type of games?

Keyboard and mouse for literally everything except things where using a wheel makes sense (ETS2 and ATS).

I can not use controllers at all. I can’t wrap my head around using them properly and pretty much all except one (ps3) hurt my hands after 15 mins.

The steam deck controls are so good, I prefer it for almost everything. Gyro, trackpads, and steam input customization

It depends, am I going to be a washed up disco star or a car obsessed binoclard?

That’s cool, interesting to see how many of my connections are new.

I’ve always been a big fan of visuwords.com, which have a similar visualization, but with structured connections based on grammar.

Damaskox, rok temu

Yeah this link of yours focuses on a bit different thing.

It generates a bigger picture of many words connected to one single word entered, and the other words are more or less synonyms. I believe you also don’t add new stuff to it?

(Just want to point out) In the Human Brain Cloud, synonyms ain’t the only thing that might connect two different words or concepts with each other. The link between words depends on the person who interacts with the words. There can be many different bridges what we have between different concepts that create an association with a word that the Human Brain Cloud gives (feelings, memories, knowledge of many different topics…)

Z4rK, rok temu

Yeah visuwords is more like a visualized view of the grammar and synonyms for a word in a dictionary and does not allow any new input.

Brain Cloud is instead an unstructured approach that lets you build new connections between words and contexts and to provide new knowledge. I like it.

Could be fun with some additional input where you could for example provide a thumbs up / down if you feel the association is positive or negative.

Damaskox, rok temu

Would these negative associations be hidden or deleted?

And what if someone didn’t feel that something that was flagged as negative was negative?

Controller: Witcher, Cyberpunk, Senua’s Sacrifice, Shadow of War/Mordor

Mouse and Keyboard: Diablo, things that end in “Craft”

HOSAS: Flying things

ThemboMcBembo, rok temu do gaming w Do you prefer playing with Keyboard or controller more, and for what type of games?

I spend all day at work with a keyboard and mouse, so I try to use a controller for absolutely everything else

Thelsim, rok temu do gaming w Do you prefer playing with Keyboard or controller more, and for what type of games?

It really depends on where I play. Behind the PC it’s definitely mouse and keyboard, it just doesn’t feel comfortable to play with a controller while sitting in my office chair.
Everything else is controller, but it’s not like you have much choice in those situations :)
