Thank you. It looks like this is sort of working in that I can get the additional buttons to show up in Steam now but I’m hitting what I think is a bug where the ‘Enable Extended Buttons’ toggle doesn’t stay enabled. After searching a bit it seems like I’m not the only one but maybe that will get worked out soon.
The updated fluid mechanics are a lot more forgiving and basically have infinite throughput. It’s still a whole new layer of complexity but doesn’t have nearly as many confusing limitations as it used to.
Bravely running away is the quintessential FromSoft experience. The ultimate flex on enemies is to not even bother attacking them and just rolling to dodge occasionally while you grab items and run past them to the next checkpoint.
This would vary based on what router you use, but this is the way I handled it on my Ubiquity EdgeRouter.
I added a DHCP reservation for my TV so it’s IP address on my local network doesn’t change.
I added a new firewall policy (with the highest priority) that accepts all traffic by default between my internal LAN network and the WAN interface of my router.
Then I added a rule to that policy to drop traffic from the IP address I assigned to my TV.
Now the TV can no longer phone home to send obnoxious notifications or issue surprise firmware updates but I can still turn on the TV and adjust the volume over the local network. I use Home Assistant for this, but I think the LG remote android app would still work as well.
I’d been starting to get into it when the Android release dropped and then I was cooked. Now between Steam/Android I’ve always got a run going somewhere.
