>>145099>are they good optics in tarky?Used to be, but they've been nerfed to the point of not being much better than a scope. The refresh rates on them are low so hitting someone who's moving side to side is really hard. They also don't pick up signatures past 200m anymore, so no super long range sniping with them either. Pretty pointless changes since it defeats the whole point of paying the cost of 2 or 3 good kits for a thermal.
Still fun to play with since they look and feel cool, but they're not really worth the cost to run and will most likely have the nearest cheater in the lobby make a straight line for you to take it off your hands.

I highly recommend chrono ark. Its mechanics are a great blend of deckbuilder and more traditional dungeon crawler like party builds/synergies, its anime and emotional and the characters are great.
Its really a gem and i dont want to spoil it or id write paragraphs explaining how all the different points about it are amazing, but suffice to say everything in it is very thought out, deliberate, and meaningful and it all comes together as the story progresses. A well crafted game

Two games, recently. A hack of FFIV (FFII US if you want to split hairs) that adds in an overall simplistic but still fun to mess with Job System, which now that I type that out fits FFIV really damn well. That's the way I'd just describe FFIV in general. I'll link it if anybody cares:
https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/8946/I'd recommend it for a replay if you're the type to replay the game every year or so, like I am.
Also got KH1.5+2.5 on Steam and have been working on 100%ing it. All of it. Started out strong with KH2 (still a great game), and following it up with BBS because I think I hate myself. It's been so long since I've played it without that one animation cancelling mod, and I have come to realize again why it's so necessary. Can't wait to sit down and play kuso Fortune Street for several hours later on.

>>152492I need to get back into it, got busy and haven't touched it in months. The last thing I did was finish act 1 and everything I could do on the ship before moving on, then save scummed a few times to see what immediate outcomes there were for the end of act 1. One thing I wish is a bit more resolution on your choices with regards to more notable characters.
Like private Regias that comes with you during the rebellion, and the pilot Raquel and her Jasper. I assume they made it to you if you left shuttles behind and weren't tied to the pickup the commoners/nobility decision. I know it's a theme of hamwarmer 40 billion, but I would like to see respect to the choices I make of who has a lucky break even if they're unimportant in the grand scheme of things. If they have a name then I put them as higher importance than the unnamed guardsman mooks who die by the million. I'm too much of a goody two shoes in these rpgs, Iconoclast with a touch of Dogmatic is my way to go.

>>152492I've been waiting for all the DLC to drop which should be soon I think.
I really liked Wrath of the Righteous but I still haven't played the DLC for it, I just don't really want to go through the entire thing again. I'd have to find some novel way of playing WOTR again cause despite all the options they give you, I cant help but feel like the combat is just number-go-up in the end, buffstacking until your number beats the enemy number. Maybe play on some easy difficulty with just me and my slamspider Wendu since I always wanted to do her romance but couldn't justify simping for her on a good character, I'd lose interactions with the rest of the party though.
No.152502
>>152497The game has a mix of actions with consequences and those which don't seemingly at random, which is why I said it could be truly great with a bigger budget. Sometimes an action you made will have consequences several acts later, which is pretty cool. I also haven't tried all the different routes yet, I'll probably try another playthough once more DLC is released. Similarly with exploration you sometimes find really awesome items or secrets, and other times just empty planets or throwaway encounters with stock loot.
>>152499The DLC that is already out for Rogue Trader is quite good, it's integrated throughout the game and the companion is one of the better ones in the game. The classes it added are insanely OP though. I never got into WoTR for the same reason about buffstacking. I like Rogue Trader combat a lot more, although it's pretty easy to totally break it if you minmax and play around extra actions/turns. By the 2nd/3rd act my character could basically solo every combat encounter in 1/2 turns.

Though, the principle hasn't changed much, just who's who. Combat goes like this:
¥ Abelard, skullfuck that daemon¥ grant extra turn¥ Abelard, skullfuck that daemon againEven for teleporting twats like Tzeentch daemons, they can't escape Abelard's oppressive movement range. That old man can move.

I finished Expedition 33 and the gameplay was mostly great, the music was great, and the story was absolute dogshit. More accurately, for 90% there isn't actually a story and they just keep teasing what story there actually is, then they finally reveal the actual story and it sucks.

>>153184You could compare the discount stats:
- Dark Souls Remastered: 19,99 seems to be its regular lowest price, seems steady so far
https://steamdb.info/app/570940/- Yvs: You can probably get it for 13,99€
https://steamdb.info/app/579180/- Yohane the parhelion: Seems to be on the path of getting cheaper
https://steamdb.info/app/2404370/Based on the price, I'd probably favour Yohane just in case that I think it'll get more expensive than getting even cheaper. If these 3 games are all the same to you, getting Yohane would also be the cheapest option. You want to play them all eventually anyway, right? I'd just pick the one you want to talk to people about first.
Personally, I've only played Dark Souls Remasterd of those three and it was very fun, I had a pretty good time with it. It's kinda tedious with its long boss runs and a bit difficult in some parts, but that makes the wins you achieve all the more rewarding. It also has some goofy parts and its own unique charm, so I remember it very fondly.
All 3 of these games look interesting though. Maybe decide on whichever you just feel like playing the most right now, lest it remains in your library unplayed.

>>153639Oh I didn't see this conversation. I love the "RPG"-ish Ys games. Lacrimosa of Dana is the best one, so the only bad part is if you go to the other Ys games it will be a downgrade. The story is really nice, and surprisingly emotional. The music is very good at tugging at the heart strings and the atmosphere of building up a little village on a deserted island really sucks you in. It's one of those games where you feel depressed when you're done with it.
I played it on Vita years ago and should play it on Steam one day to enjoy better visuals.
I love Lacrimosa of Dana a lot. It sits at the top for a reason.

In bad news apparently you can no longer glide with pals because Nintendo is so petty and patented the concept of gliding with monsters in video games. There's a mod to restore it, though. But damn, that sucks. Video game patents are so retarded.
