LadyCrimson Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Have bucket, will travel. Paper bag on head, because of course you can cat. Took me a while to notice that (a tiny robot) B-12's eyes were visible from the backpack on the cat. Which is cute. These things are not cute. They're like a cross between alien ticks and those head crab things in Halo. 6 “Things are as they are.

LadyCrimson Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 The game is artistically very nice, imo. The environment is very atmospheric/dystopian. ...with occasional almost horror atmosphere. Also, more "zurks", because while they're not cute, I do find them sorta funny. Even moreso when animated and making their weird squeaking noises. 4 “Things are as they are.

LadyCrimson Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 (edited) It's so hard to get a picture of a "base" in one shot, without mega-FoV distortion. It's also funny how I don't like "platformers" yet I will build ground bases where jumping all over the place is required. Go figure. This one is is me refurbishing a tiny 1-story guard house. The streetlight was already there, makes a good front area spotlight. I blocked around it so it wouldn't shine into the base itself cause that was annoying graphically. >.> And it makes a good "bridge". This shows "structure stability". Green is good, red is bad. Although you're always going to get reddish on blocks extending outwards and it doesn't mean it's always fragile in terms of walking on it. Stability just means how many blocks can you extend/add on without a collapse disaster for lack of support. Also shows that the pic above is just the topside. The main base stuff is underground in this one. ....where one goes to relax with a good book after a hard day of mining and looting. That's only one of the "bases" I've built on a single map. Yup, a great time waster indeed. Edited August 24, 2022 by LadyCrimson 3 “Things are as they are.

LadyCrimson Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) I see a park gazebo with a bright central light ... I think "already has half a perimeter wall built, and that light is useful." (You can place lots of dev-only lights/blocks/things in the world if you want, like neon signs, but I have no idea how, if even possible, to make them "active" vs. staying dark/inanimate) (edit- there's a few player-electric traps and lights these days but it's limited, too many steps and I don't bother with it most of the time) Five or so hours later ... could do more, but bored again and it's only a "side/storage base", time to move on. Also, as I wander, I have this need to clean up all litter in the game, whacking every piece of paper, trash bag, broken car, broken glass, over-turned chair, and rock/metal rubble away. Can't have a messy, garbage infested looking world! I guess it's akin to having to open every loot container even tho you know it's just going to be maybe the millionth iron pipe and feathers that you don't need...

Keyrock Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 (edited) My robot waifu: The queen and her servant sending me on a mission to let the people of Paris eat cake: These vestals serve as the game's bonfires: Side note: On xXxBOxXx this game has 3 graphics quality settings: Favor framerate, favor graphics, and favor resolution. I am, of course, playing on the favor framerate setting. There is some texture pop-in, but other than that it looks decent enough so far.

Keyrock Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I beat Steelrising's second and third (mini?) bosses, the Unstable Lightning Ram: And the Unstable Forger: Both of them were quite easy, the Unstable Lancer was significantly harder than either of his brethren that followed, largely because he was fast. These 2 chumps were slow as molasses. Come to think of it, if the French had spent more time and resources on QA, they could have had stable versions. 3 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyrock Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 My favorite thing in the game is finding new clothing, not so much for the stats (those are nice too), but for fashion purposes: My previous hat made me look super mysterious during conversations, though: The game features famous figures from the French Revolution, like Robespierre: The 4th boss, Unstable Statuary Ram: Like the last 2 bosses, this chump was super slow and thus quite easy, you can kite him for days. I mean, his attacks did look like they would do huge amounts of damage; it doesn't mean anything if they never land. 2 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyrock Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I defeated my first true boss of the game, The Selenite of the Louvre: These are known as Titans and defeating them grants you a power, air dash in this case. There are 3 phases to the battle. In phase 2 she sets her shield on fire and rapid fires electric projectiles at you from time to time. In phase 3 she electrifies her sickle and becomes much more aggressive. I defeated her on my second try. As an aside, this game has a multitude of difficulty options to tailor the experience to suit your taste. I haven't touched them and am playing on the default developer intended difficulty. Beating the titan also had me saving the life of Jean Sylvain Bailly. In real life he got the guillotine eventually, but since this is alternative history, who knows? 2 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyrock Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I'm spamming this thread so much that you'd think that I work for Hormel Foods. Another day another Titan defeated, this time it's the Bishop of the Cíte: Much like the last Titan, there are 3 phases. Much like the last Titan, I defeated it on the second try. Defeating this Titan gave me the grappling hook ability, letting me Spiderman to previously unreachable locations: I also saved Anne Louis Henri de La Fare in the process: Seemingly, these historical figures are used to power the Titans, thus the Titans resemble a warped version of said figure. 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
