I was watching this the other day actually. I forgot about it when I was following the power lines but now that you mention it again, yeah. That’s probably what put the thought in my head lol

Im also playing this but am still halfway through. I like most things about its so bizarre to me how much they focus on the combat

The combat I’m a little iffy on. It’s not the worst thing, but sometimes it feels a little off

I’ve never played either the original or its DLC. Does it get any more weird west outside of zombies?

You can hunt a bunch of cryptids and the four horses of the apocalypse. That’s what I can remember off the top of my head. I’m sure there’s something else I’m missing too

How hard was it to maintain your sanity while working on this? Whenever InfernoPlus goes into detail on working with Halo’s content creation tools, it sounds like the most painful jury-rigged mess imaginable.

Edit: misread your post, thought you were the creator.

SkyezOpen, do games w Oblivion leveling guides be like:

In morrowind, you would gain athletics experience for swimming, even if you weren’t moving. So an easy way to powerlevel was to jump into a canal in balmora, wrap a rubber band around your controller stick, and walk away for a few hours whole your character endlessly swam into a wall leveling up.

I know there were also several broken spell combinations, but my favorite was using a custom fortify jump 100 for 3 seconds and then a fortify jump 200 for 1 second and leaping across the map (because fast travel was transit style between fixed points).

Oh and summons disappear when they die, but if you looted one the same instant you killed it, you could get its gear. So you could create a cheap summon golden saint spell for a few seconds, kill and loot it and repeat for unlimited ebony and glass shields and weapons.

In skyrim, there are enchantments that enhance alchemy, and potions that enhance enchanting, so by alternating between the two, you could create gear with RIDICULOUS enchantments. Like the numbers on them would be in the hundreds of thousands.

greenbelt,

In Oblivion you can sneak into a wall endlessly next to some NPC and get to level 100 pretty well. Bethesda knew what they where doing.

Lyra_Lycan,

Pretty much every time I played Oblivion I’d spend a week in the tutorial cave, levelling Agility by using a turbo controller and rubber band, jumping in a corner where the ceiling height is just high enough so you can spam about 5 jumps per second. Later on you can do what you said near a goblin to max Sneak, but I think it’s quicker by that guy you need to kill for the Dark Brotherhood as he’s ill and perpetually sleeping

BreakerSwitch,

I know the goblin you’re talking about, but one better for sneak in the tutorial is right when you encounter the first zombie, three rats are fleeing it. They’re hostile, but the devs wanted you to focus on the zombie, so they don’t attack no matter what. Killing the zombie then sneaking into a wall by those rats is safe but also gives you more experience because you’re sneaking around three enemies

Lyra_Lycan,

Incroyable!

slazer2au,

I recently did a Morrowind playthrough where I trained sneak by crouching on the roof of the Balmora building with 2 dudes by the Silt Strider, then I went and had dinner.

andros_rex,

Sneak is basically useless with the code patch though. Even with max sneak, iirc the max chances of pickpocketing even like a spoon is ~30%.

caut_R, do games w Oblivion leveling guides be like:

Idk if someone from Bethesda said this or if it was just a Youtuber regarding the stupid ways to level up in Oblivion (like jumping around for hours), but: If that‘s how people enjoy playing the game, then let them. And I agree with this.

Regarding abuse of game mechanics and not just bugs/glitches… I can only think of some Dark Souls bosses that can be baited into killing themselves by fall damage. For some it‘s clearly intentional (Iron Guard thing in Dark Souls 1), for some arguable (Dark Souls 2 the guy in the sunken area), and some clearly rather unintended (first real boss in Dark Souls 1 for example, it‘s really hard to do and when it happens the dude drops like a rocket lol)

nyctre, (edited ) do games w Oblivion leveling guides be like:

A friend used to spend time sneaking + auto walking into a door behind which was an npc. He did that to level up the sneaking skill… Edit: oh, op mentioned his trick as well. Still, point stands.

Meh… these types of tricks are interesting to discover, but boring to use, imo. If you’re gonna play that way imo just use cheats to max whatever skills you want. Less time wasted and more time left to enjoy the game.

Companies using “Got It” to dismiss their invasive popups makes me so irrationally angry.

And I definitely didn’t “get it”, either. I buttoned through as fast as possible so I could use what I wanted to use.

I’m personally a big fan of doing the very tiny semi-transparent (X) that’s impossible to click on as far away from the “Yes, Please Digitally Fuck My Wallet Pussy” blinking blue bar at bottom center of the screen.

Where’s the “Fuck off” option??

MisterCurtis,

I’ve had to put “I don’t like deals” in a popup close button before. I hated working in web marketing.

Fiivemacs,

well I don’t… it’s never a deal, and I’m usually forced to buy more and spend more in order to get that ‘deal’

Quetzalcutlass,

Keepass2Android shows a pop-up each October asking for donations. Perfectly fine, but the dismiss button is labeled “I don’t like the app that much”. Even free software isn’t spared that sort of thing.

(The pop-up also breaks the fingerprint reader prompt for extra annoyance)

Skyrim’s followers have a maximum carry weight and won’t let you trade them any items after they exceed it. That is, if you TRADE them the items! You can just Hold E/talk to them and go into interaction mode and order them to pick up things from the ground. They will happily do so without complains regardless of their carry weight status, extremely helpful for collecting a bunch of dwemer junk to smelt down into ingots for smithing - those things are heavy!

Delta_V, do games w Oblivion leveling guides be like:

Weakness to Magic stacks exponentially with itself when it comes from 2 different spells.

For example, lets say you have 2 spells with Weakness to Magic 100% for 6 seconds: Spell 1, and Spell 2.

Spell 1: target becomes 100% weak to magic
Spell 2: target becomes 2 * 100% = 200% weak to magic
recast Spell 1: target becomes 2 * 200% = 400% weak to magic
recast Spell 2: target becomes 2 * 400% = 800% weak to magic

And so on. After a few stacks of that debuff, and you can 1-hit-kill any foe with a spell that deals damage.

Weakness to Magic also works on the player character and it will amplify the effect of buffs. Stacking it before casting your buff spells lets you walk around with millions of health, stamina, and mana for short periods of time.

Running SteamOS on my living room gaming PC. There are more options than windows 11.

dom,

I also just installed pop os on my 2021 laptop that was struggling with windows 11. It breathed new life into it. The computer is now as snappy as when I first got it

mrgoosmoos,

I’m gonna have to “upgrade” at work soon and it’s going to suck

I got a new computer with win11 a year or so ago. I made them buy me a win10 license because I couldn’t do my job anymore. fucking file explorer doesn’t even work on win11. astounding

greenbelt,

Fuck the closed console. Do not throw all the computational power away.
