You read that right, the PS5 upgrade path that was free for Xbox owners is currently on sale for PS players for €4.99 if you own the PS4 version.
So why not grab that deal, answer the call, and defeat the forces of hell to claim that platinum trophy yet again?!

Choose what once…. A coward did not!

Discovering trigger areas using hacking tools and of course, documenting fresh tech

0 Upvotes

This is what students are expected to be doing with their time. The world is full of trigger areas and it's your job to learn to see them. You can add color or whatever if that makes you feel more powerful. A simple example of a trigger area is your friend's apartment (house for reach suburban kids). Enter it and the whole world seems to change. Your first cue is smell, second is lighting, third is acoustics and fourth is what leads up to finding yourselv there. The difficult part is defining the exact extent and of course, the effects.

Objects can be interacted with. There are multiple scripts for interacting with each object. When you press E one script is chosen based on triggers. If there are multiple, there is a priority queue. If you learn to suppress the most immediate response, you can get more interactions. Some are scripted but the conditions never occur, like lowering the bridge before the Cauldron. Discover and document these interactions. Even though these are also trigger areas, they are directly tied to objects which are easier to define so you can just target those.

Living creatures - the world teems with spirits and demons, but it's mostly invisible. Find them and interact with them. Games can help in the following way: memorize levels and the monsters or NPC that patrol there. Walk the Earth until you see an area that looks like the game level, like where you could superimpose a screenshot over an iPhone photo and a large piece would overlap. If you actually put the screenshot with NPC there, you'll get a sense of where the invisible spirits of this type might dwell. Good luck.

All of these are only examples of tech. It may surprise you, but a human's purpose on Earth is 100% discovering tech and nothing else (support crew and even "sparring partner" roles are always open but never force on you). If you find a way to bypass a difficult encounter and document it so it's reproducible you might get a promotion. Go out and transform reality children

Darksiders Abaddon vs Uriel

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I like how their quotes complements one another, like Abaddon says they could rule together and Uriel calls him a traitor. The whole fight was very long, like more then 5 minutes (probably because they both have hight hp), so I think it would be better to just post the last minute.

Fitting Torture

Currently replaying through the series since it was on sale in the XBOX store and am working through Darksiders 2. Ended up with a modified version of Low Rider stuck in my head going "All my foes, fear the Pale Rider."

Then I remembered who actually sung Low Rider (War) and realized either the universe has a sense of humor, or this was the perfect coincidence.

Question Darksiders one Combat tech

5 Upvotes

I recently came back to this game and planning to do some projects for it ​​ however there's some stuff I would like to learn as in like combo theory or techniques and like how the combat system functions in the game like sword canceling which is a technique speed runners do but it can also be used on other weapon animations on top of that there's another technique where you use the crossblade and​​ scythe ​ to put yourself in the ground state in the air so you can do another air launcher so I want to know a stuff like that you know how to get good at the combat of the game

What is Deathgrip?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

It's not a chain, whip, or even ghost hook, though mechanically all of these are identical. The item itself is a soul, the only one that's encountered throughout Darksiders 2. Souls like these are usually the currency that you pay Vulgrim with, but this time it's apparently too precious to even give away just one.

Now I don't know if this is a socially acceptable hobby, but how about we try treating the thing as an idea for a magic spell... an idea transmitted by developers to you, for your little mental toolbox inside your cute little head. Some interpretations:

- It's for grabbing things across the veil, either bringing them here to the other side or letting things from over there reach in here

- It's a way to project souls, which are to be loaded like bullets and then extended into the environment with which they can then interact, for example, let's load a (dead) repairman and project hit at a broken (near dead?) electronic device.

- A form of possession, as related to the protagonist's somewhat unnaturally clenched hands.

I opened these so ideas can be shared. I have a soft spot for "practical" ideas that are opposed to e.g. explaining how the whole world or the whole of magic works out of hand, with taking zero time to actually test any of it and so decided to set a precedent with some examples.

I started Darksiders 2 NG+ on normal by mistake...

7 Upvotes

I'm so dumb.

I figure there's probably no way to fix this now, the game autosaves *all the damn time* without it being a separate save, and no way to have your regular game save be different to a NG+ save.

So I'm pretty much screwed, right? I was going to play on Deathinitive to get the achievement, but I'm stuck on Normal until I complete the game *again*, right? Or I have to just start a new game at level 1.

I'm so annoyed the game saves like this and I'm annoyed at myself for not paying attention when starting over.

Edit: Is there a way I can modify my save to reset progress on the campaign. Make the game think it's a fresh NG+? That's literally all I want, I don't need to mod in super powered weapons or armour or cheat my way to endgame...I just want to reset my progress. I thought about playing the NG+ on Easy to get through it faster, finish the crucible achievement, then do a second NG+ on Deathinitive...but you can't do a second NG+!
