Love to see the transistor rec in 2025
Combat looks a lot like folklore from PS3
According to compendium, elemental honing provides a stack for each unique element. The buff amount increases nonlinearly per stack and is stronger on kinetic weapons
I can't find a non reddit source but imagine a void portal opening overhead and just firing telesto bolts all around
Just saw a clip of the telesto catalyst, holy hell
Some pretty interesting notes in here, too much for me to write all about so I'll pick one Palindrome returning as arc is pretty unexpected, it's interesting that they didn't want to add to the huge pile of void hand cannons that have been rolling out recently
I didn't downvote but I disagree. It is nice to be able to roleplay your own character but I also like having well written established characters
Not as good as the examples you listed but subnautica imo
2024 Expeditions returning for those that missed them
Hello Everyone! 2024 has been another impactful year for No Man’s Sky, with the team pouring so much love into every update. OMEGA , ORBITAL , WORLDS PART I and AQUARIUS added breadth and depth to so many areas of the universe - from a complete overhaul of the expedition system ,...
Returning expeditions are omega, adrift, liquidators, aquarius, and the cursed. Each expedition will be returning for 2 weeks at a time, starting now with omega until February 2025
Wow, just tried opening boost (for reddit) and it actually loaded
In case you haven't heard of it, the scrubs rewatch podcast with Zach braff and Donald faison is pretty great and has a lot of behind the scenes info
Was happening to me for ~3 days but seemed to resolve a day or two ago. Using boost on android
The activity is stale if you've played FotL the last few years but I would say the rewards are pretty decent (lost memento, some decent loot rolls to chase, new shotgun frame, exotic class items focusing)
The patch notes say it is intended to not have matchmaking, but missing from fireteam finder appears to be unintended
Expert difficulty Removing matchmaking and added Haunted Sectors to Fireteam Finder.
Probably a typo but one section mentions spirit of star eater and gathering storm. Prismatic hunter has storm's edge, not gathering storm. Got me excited that the arc super was getting changed or added to but that's probably unlikely
Sad to see the lucky pants damage nerf as well as the recon and auto loading holster nerfs
Nice to see young ahamkara spine change reverted
Knew the rocket sidearms were going to get nerfed, 25% reserves hurts a bit but at least damage is still good
Permanently Deleted
The chocobo race is absolutely brutal, best of luck
Maybe cheating a bit but there are several genres of games that are named after the games that popularized their mechanics such as roguelike/roguelite, souls-like, metroidvania
You'll actually pick up silver leaves from each stage of altars of sorrow and more at the end so that works out if you're going with that option. Otherwise they drop from any activity completion so I wouldn't sweat farming them too much
Altars of sorrow are pretty nice since there're plenty of ads and most fall over to any damage. Onslaught is also fun and you can earn some pretty great weapons (don't forget to attune at zavala if you want to target something). If you don't want to compete with other players then the opening of grasp of avarice is also pretty quick.
Overall would recommend weaving in solstice bounty completion with other things you're trying to get done (catalysts, event challenges, etc.) since farming almost anything like this can get monotonous
PC Gamer Interview with Joe Blackburn
We spoke to the game director about everything revealed in The Final Shape showcase and plenty more.
Interesting interview where they touch on different topics like weapon power creep, debunk that strand was meant to drop with Witch Queen, the new light supers, changing the content model to episodes, and future of PvP. It's sort of a follow up to Joe's video he released in response to the recent state of the game and this interview has the context in case anyone's missed the recent drama
