Tilgare, do games w What games had easy soft locks that prevented you from either progressing or getting a true ending?

While playing Final Fantasy X the first time, I got to Old Zanarkand and inside the dome, I saved behind a sealed door in the Cloister of Trials. I wasn’t savvy to good saving practices and after solving the puzzle, got into a battle I was completely hopeless to defeat. There was no way to walk back out the door from which I entered, the only way out was through; and with my existing inventory, spells, charged up aeons, etc. I absolutely could not defeat the boss.

It was pretty crushing because this moment is so close to the end of the game, but I gave up and had to come back months (years?) later to fully start the game over. I think maybe I played 99+ hours of Final Fantasy VII and then decided to give X another try. The second time, I was much smarter with maintaining multiple save games for safety. Not to be bested again, I grinded up all of my limit breaks and aeons for safety and completely obliterated the boss in one go the next time around.

pastermil,

That Zanarkand Cloister of Trial is nowhere near the end

Tilgare,

Oh I vaguely remembered it being beyond the ¾ point, but also I wouldn’t have known and it certainly FELT like that was the case when I got soft locked.

Odd Giants is based on the old MMO Glitch, and in that, when your character succumbs to empty stamina, you go to the underworld to recover. It’s a truly special game.

Same thing happened with this show called Top Boy. I ended up just getting it from a DDL website.

She’s a pain but she’s also part of the family. I think it makes s very good point to make her like that and to have us bear her.

Gailthesnail,

her voice is too fucking gross and nasty. i dont care about anything else about her she just needs to shut up

In Chernobylite, when you die (either by getting killed in specific circumstances or by committing suicide in a special device), you get a chance to alter the past by changing decisions you made in the game, which will end up in changing the story and a whole lot of things like companions’ attitudes, weapons at your disposal etc.

Oh yeah, Scarlet & Violet DLC is coming out. Or is it already out?

How are you liking it so far?

electrogamerman,

It went out like 8 hours ago. It came out during midnight in Germany, and I came to work, so I haven’t played it yet. I heard is quite good

recursive_recursion, (edited ) do pcgaming w Is there a mouse that vibrates?
@recursive_recursion@programming.dev avatar

Theoretically you could create it with KDEConnect on a phone and use it as a mouse

  • this might be easiest to implement as you’d need a smartphone, a pc, then install KDEConnect on both
  • the con being the mouse part becomes more of a haptic trackpad as the phone itself doesn’t relay back global positioning changes(although it could with GPS but might not be cost/time-effective)

Metro.

All 3 games require you do/don’t kill certain people at different levels in order to get the ‘true ending’. When I first played I just killed anything that moved, but then found out the consequences of doing so. Honestly it improved my game experience so much more when I had to carefully consider each action.

At least Exodus good ending is way easier to get imo, just don’t kill non bandits humans. (and don’t act like an ass around your crew)

My sonarr has handled disenchantment fine, the files it grabbed are s5exx but they imported automatically as s3exx just fine. I didn’t have to do anything.

That’s weird. Mine just kept downloading the old season episodes.

Mine does that for futurama, but I just manually import that as they release.

I’m sure others have mentioned it here, but…

Chrono Trigger.

Same with Futurama… but seems to import well when a proper release is out. Production seasons vs Aired seasons is a pain
