  • 11:44, 28 April 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Seasons After Fall (Created page with "* There are no missable achievements, you can explore freely at the end. * Try barking at everything, especially if it's glowing. * Can't move and nothing appears to be happening? Try barking a few times. * Stand still in the glowing water to teleport. To teleport something else, get it to stand still in the water. * When you're drawing shapes with bugs, changing seasons changes the line shape. Category:Games")
  • 14:50, 31 March 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (Created page with "* Most of the gameplay tips from Final Fantasy VII Remake still apply. * There is an upgrade weapon screen in the menu, but weapons upgrade automatically. The only thing you have control of is weapon skills. * Materia equipped to back-liners get AP, but only if they are available, so open world yes, locked party areas and arenas no. * The chapter select is even more feature-filled than Remake's was, so don't worry too much about missing anything. * Auto-Cast and...")
  • 08:31, 27 March 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Dragon's Dogma 2 (Created page with "* When your pawns say something like "something catches the eye", or "what's that?", causing a "!" to appear on the map that isn't referring to a ladder, then it's almost certainly a seeker's token. These look like smallish flat discs, about the size of a fist, laying flat on the ground, and are worth picking up. Category:Games")
  • 11:23, 26 March 2024 Kanfy talk contribs created page Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee (Created page with "* When playing on PC, the fanmade open source [https://aliveteam.github.io/ R.E.L.I.V.E. engine] is recommended to fix a variety of compatibility issues with this game and Abe's Exoddus. * Ducking down at suspicious spots and rolling at walls are key for finding most secrets. That said, even the starting area is littered with endgame difficulty secret areas which makes the optional challenge of rescuing all mudokons on a first playthrough very challenging, even with a g...")
  • 08:01, 20 March 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Aliens: Fireteam Elite (Created page with "* Play different classes to unlock skills, since there is a lot of cross-class skills you can get to customize and strengthen your main character. * Smart gun is good, even if it isn't the hardest hitting gun. A great class to start with. * I recommend starting on Normal Difficulty and beating the base campaign. Doing so unlocks another class and the scaling is tuned for leveling the classes. If your group is competent enough at shooters and you find the difficulty a b...")
  • 09:04, 18 March 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Granblue Fantasy: Relink (Created page with "* For the story missions, the Captain has to be in the party for a lot of them, so it would be wise to get used to their skills as well as building them up faster relative to the others in your party. If you're running someone else as the leader, you can at least make sure they can keep up with you along with the rest and it should be fine. For free quests, though, anyone is fair game, so bring whoever you'd like. * Early on in the story, you'll be able to start recruit...")
  • 09:01, 18 March 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Mindustry (Created page with "* Always keep track of your factory's ratios. * If you are attacking an enemy base, keep track of how much silicon goes in and out of your core so you don't run out. * Always try to optimise your factories as much as possible, if they are not efficient enough you should completely re-do them. Category:Games")
  • 08:47, 13 March 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Unicorn Overlord (Created page with "* The game rewards a bit of command optimization. A few battles in the game tells you it's a good idea to set basic attacks to target "lowest HP%" so your soldiers prioritize finishing off the wounded instead of smacking whatever's right in front of them. You also might want to tell your clerics to wait until a target is below a given percentage of HP to reaction heal so they don't blow all their support points on insignificant scratches, or tell units with a weaker pois...")
  • 17:37, 8 March 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Sifu (Created page with "* When you restart an area you go back to the age you were when you started it, losing any progress made, which isn't as bad as it sounds. * I recommend focusing on learning moves permanently, you do this by buying them 5 times before a reset, so just keep buying the same move until it's permanent. * Skills that have a lower age limit can still be upgraded to permanent as long as you started it before going over the age limit. * Items are also permanent, and often a k...")
  • 09:08, 6 March 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Quasimorph (Created page with "* Infection only kills you if damage reaches 100%, so if a wound heals before it gets to that point then you don't need antibiotics. You can also either use a merc profile that is immune to infection or mass produce infection-lowering items for free via the ship's crafting menu. * The "stock market" is not an actual market you can use, instead it is a scoreboard for corporation power. A corp's entry on the board will show you equipment with a percentage on each item; th...")
  • 10:44, 27 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Balatro (Created page with "* You can play 5 cards even if not all of them count towards the points. e.g. if you play 2 pairs, you can play a 5th card as well. This is a useful way to discard some cards from your hand without using a discard. Category:Games")
  • 08:58, 26 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Severed Steel (Created page with "* The game doesn't fully explain what maneuvers put you in stunt status (enemy shots are guaranteed to miss) or how to tell of you're in it. The visual indicator is the red speed lines at the sides of the screen, but the slo-mo meter also doesn't drain during stunts. Some things like a fall from high up or the first split second of a regular jump will trigger it and you may want to get a feel for it by running around outside of combat since it can feel random when it dro...")
  • 12:49, 25 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Pacific Drive (Created page with "* Consider fabricating replacement car parts instead of using repair putty. Repair Putty should be saved for mid-run. The components for replacement are far more plentiful, and it becomes even more efficient when you get the <div class="spoiler">Matter Deconstructor</div>. * Some anomalies can be led away from where you want to be if they're the kind that move * Pay attention to the top left of the HUD periodically when walking about since you don't get warned about ra...")
  • 12:47, 25 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page My Time at Sandrock (Created page with "* You don't need to have played My Time at Portia first, but Sandrock has enough QoL improvements over it that it might be tough playing Portia after Sandrock. * This game is a marathon, not a sprint. You'll have plenty of time to explore and mess around with things even if you finish every mission as soon as it pops up. * If you find that days are going by too fast or too slow, you can adjust the rate that time passes in the game settings. Just know that crafting time...")
  • 12:40, 25 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Dead Island 2 (Created page with "* If you're using a Maiming weapon, you can massacre regular zombies (walkers/runners) by aiming for the legs. * If your weapon has an elemental mod some zombie subtypes will be completely immune to it. Make sure to have a backup. A purely physical one is good to have on-hand for firefighters. * Top up your Fuse supply every time you visit a vendor. Spend one when you're feeling like you need a new weapon. * Lockboxes usually can't be opened when you first find them....")
  • 20:41, 22 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page River City Girls 2 (Created page with "* New to this game are hideouts, which give you a full heal whenever you walk in and are an option for you in the event that you get KO'd. Choosing to continue from a hideout will mean that you incur no money penalty like you would have if you choose to continue where you lost, but depending on where it happened, it may prove a slight inconvenience for you. For what it's worth, the money penalty doesn't really seem to be as rough here as it is in the last game. * When y...")
  • 20:40, 22 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page The Forgotten City (Created page with "* There are a few areas with combat and (mild) jump scares, if you want to avoid them you can still complete the game: <div class="spoiler">don't take part in the plan to steal the golden bow, and avoid the lower cistern</div> * There is no penalty to restarting the loop, and in some cases you can reach a dead end where there is nothing left to do; in these cases don't hesitate to force the golden rule to be applied and reset the loop. Category:Games")
  • 20:39, 22 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Taiji (Created page with "* The entrance to the mill (dashes) is not to the right/east of the hub area, it's down/south. * The gallery's ground floor has puzzles which require you to know the rules from the other areas, but other floors have their own rules and can be done whenever Category:Games")
  • 17:07, 20 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War (Created page with "* Go here to learn about useful mods for the base game and expansion packs: [https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Warhammer_40,000:_Dawn_of_War#Essential_improvements Dawn of War], [https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Warhammer_40,000:_Dawn_of_War:_Dark_Crusade Dark Crusade], [https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Warhammer_40,000:_Dawn_of_War:_Soulstorm Soul Storm]. * [https://dow.fandom.com/wiki/Dawn_of_War/Campaign_overview Go here] to learn about the difficulty. In short, n...")
  • 18:41, 18 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Undertale Yellow (Created page with "* Play Undertale first. * As in Undertale, the game really picks up around the middle. If you're not sold on it, try to make it through Snowdin before giving it up. * The config menu has several accessibility features including Easy Mode. These features can be enabled and disabled whenever you open the game. * Some of the boss's attack patterns in Vengeance/Kill Everyone assume you have fought the boss' pacifist or neutral variants. They're not impossible and it does...")
  • 11:31, 18 February 2024 User account Yoshimo talk contribs was created by Ahobday talk contribs
  • 18:55, 15 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Helldivers 2 (Created page with "* It's worth completing the Orders (seen by pressing L2). These give a big bunch of medals by, usually, doing things you'd be doing already, but you have to make sure you're going to the right planets for them. * Always use your strategems, don't try to save them for 'the right time'. There's rarely a reason to enter an outpost without at least a couple orbital bombardments clearing out some of the targets inside. Get a heavy weapon down ASAP, thrown down sentries whene...")
  • 09:05, 15 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (Created page with "== Jobs == * Chapter 5 is when you can start switching jobs. * Have your characters quickly swap to all their unlocked jobs in the changing room, even if you're not sure you'll use them. Doing this unlocks the 4 starter skills for those jobs without having to use them in a battle. == Sujimon == * Every time you beat a "gym", there will be a committee agent standing near the entrance. Talk to him to get a free set of 10 agents for fusing. == Dodonko Island == * You...")
  • 15:48, 14 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Metal Gear Acid (Created page with "* When building a deck your eventual goal is synergy. You want interchangeable ammo/weapons so that you dont really ever have dead hands. A mildly worse two weapons that work with each other is way better than two non-interchangeable guns. * You'll probably need to rework your deck for boss fights, but building a general deck for everything else is very doable, and frankly, certain rare cards can obviate any need to change. * You can import 1 card from your collection...")
  • 08:56, 14 February 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Azure Striker Gunvolt (Created page with "* The game has several language options, two of which are labeled as "English". One of these is a redone translation that restores content cut from the initial localization. The Steam version to date still defaults to the inferior version, and many new players simply don't think to change it assuming the default settings are sufficient. Category:Games")
  • 16:51, 30 January 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Grand Theft Auto III (Created page with "* Don't hesitate to spend money on weapons, There's nothing you can do in GTA 3 with money except use it to buy weapons. The only two exceptions where money will be required to play the mission are Bomb Da Base Act 2 ($100,000) and the very last mission of the game ($500,000). * I HIGHLY recommend finishing all kinds of side missions in Portland before you start working for Salvatore Leone. Even if you do not usually play side missions like Vigilante or Taxi, at least f...")
  • 08:48, 29 January 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Pseudoregalia (Created page with "* A ways into the game, you'll run into a place called Tower Remains with a locked gate and sign saying something about three suns needed to pass. It looks like a final boss door that requires collectable McGuffins to unlock, but the real one is actually a little ways inside the tower. There's a side path to get past the front gate and a mandatory movement upgrade inside to pick up. Category:Games")
  • 08:45, 29 January 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Harvestella (Created page with "* It’s a good idea to complete chapter 3 early before spending too much time on side quests. doing the 4 crystal dungeons will unlock fairies, which unlocks new completion objectives in the fairy books. Being able to see what they are early on is convenient for planning to complete them, since they involve growing seasonal crops. * There’s a well on the south side of your farm. Go take a look at it during quietus. Category:Games")
  • 08:44, 29 January 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Curse of the Sea Rats (Created page with "* During the end game, fast travel is turned off. So if you want to wrap up side quests and optional bosses, do it before you fight Flora Burn for the first time in the temple. * Caveat: there is a way to turn fast travel back on during the end game, but you have to beat 8 specific bosses, talk to a specific character after beating those 8 bosses, and then talk to her again before you fight the "true ending" end boss. * There are 4 different endings that depend on spec...")
  • 14:08, 11 January 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver (Created page with "* Reddit has information on the [https://old.reddit.com/r/LegacyOfKain/wiki/index#wiki_how_do_i_play_soul_reaver.3F best version of Soul Reaver] to play. Currently, the definitive version is Raina Audron’s HD remaster using the Flycast Dreamcast emulator. * The fast travel system is seamless. However, there is currently no title or marker to remember where they lead aside from a symbol. Try to keep a record of each symbol's general location. * If you get lost, here...")
  • 15:48, 7 January 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page The Talos Principle 2 (Created page with "* You will return to New Jerusalem, so if you want to put off exploring and just start doing puzzles from the off, you can. (But you really should explore to get more out of the story). However you can't go back there whenever you want, so be aware of that. * No puzzle requires anything more than is in the room, and everything has a 'simple' solution. If you're trying to get cute with item positioning or jumping around trying to exploit the landscape, you're likely miss...")
  • 08:17, 4 January 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Escape from Tarkov (Created page with "* The absolute first thing you should be looking for are good medical supplies to stockpile. * Focus on completing quests first, since they give a lot of unlocks and resources. * Early raids, especially in early wipe, you need to focus on surviving. Avoid firefights, (usually) avoid high value loot locations, extract early if you feel overextended. You'll snowball eventually, but not if your start is shaky. * Get some containers as soon as possible. They give lots of...")
  • 08:15, 4 January 2024 Ahobday talk contribs created page Dave the Diver (Created page with "* The in-game calendar system is only there for side activities, you can complete the main story at your leisure. * Side activities will eventually recycle if you don't complete them before the deadline. Category:Games")
  • 11:06, 31 December 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Against the Storm (Created page with "* If it's not something that you can grow on fertile soil or derived from it, you'll run out of it eventually. * Demolishing buildings returns 100% of the resources used for the construction. * Camps can be moved for free. It can cost a bit to move other buildings, but it's instant. * Poor logistics will kill you. As an example, if your cooks have to trudge across a fourth of the map to grab raw food from storage, they're spending more time walking back and forth than...")
  • 11:06, 28 December 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Grandia Xtreme (Created page with "* The game is split into four chapters of increasing difficulty and drops. I wouldn't linger on the three chapters since chapter 4 opens up with so much better stuff and half the game's text. * I may mention save-scumming below, but you can get by without doing it at all, but chapter 4 will be very rough with what the game sells to you and randomly gives you. * Random number generation (RNG) is used for just about everything except enemy formations. You fight an enemy...")

  • 10:47, 28 December 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Mega Man X (Created page with "* You can climb up walls. Use it to your advantage! Many secrets are above or below the main flow of the level. * There's a very useful power-up in the Chill Penguin level, go there first. * Most bosses are weak against one of the special weapons. Also, defeating certain bosses can make other levels easier. Category:Games")
  • 16:28, 22 December 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page ASTLIBRA Revision (Created page with "* The demo is the entire first chapter (around two hours of gameplay), the save data should also carry over into the full game. * There are no missable collectables or items. * The game will still be introducing mechanics and systems until the last dungeon. If you're having trouble with any specific one then there are books in your inventory that will update to include explanations on all of them. * The Libra system is slightly obtuse, you need to balance the scales b...")
  • 13:09, 19 December 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain (Created page with "* It's a good idea to explore your surroundings off the main path. You may come across permanent upgrades. Or find a handy spell/weapon that may prove invaluable on the main quest. * Heart of darkness (the consumable item to revive and restore health) isn't infinite to find. Best to keep an eye on your supply. Alternatively there is a place to gain more hearts locked somewhere obscurely. Theoretically gaining an infinite amount by sacrificing blood. * The spell ‘rep...")
  • 17:08, 14 December 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader (Created page with "* You can only improve characteristics and abilities that are in the archetype or origin advancement lists on designated level up spots for them, though you can sacrifice a talent for an characteristic/ability increase. Some Talents provide exceptions to this. * There is a limit to how much you can improve a characteristic/ability per Archetype, so bear in mind that you cannot just pump all stats into a single of them from the start. You can level them further in the ad...")
  • 17:14, 3 December 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Alan Wake 2 (Created page with "* You can always backtrack if you realise you've missed a collectible, though it may take a long time. Note that there is a point of no return, but the game makes it extremely obvious, and there are no collectibles after that point. Category:Games")
  • 13:45, 29 November 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Back 4 Blood (Created page with "* You can ignore the little videos about how you need to organize the cards in your deck so that the more useful effects can be put sooner or later in your playthrough. As of now, all cards in your deck are considered played and you can just go for it. * Originally, you had to complete Act 1 in order to unlock Doc, Hoffman, Jim, and Karlee. As far as I'm aware of, this is no longer the case. The last four Cleaners (Heng, Sharice, "Prophet" Dan, and Tala) are with the DL...")
  • 20:58, 28 November 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Lethal Company (Created page with "* A good starting purchase is two walkie-talkies and two flashlights. If you have three or a full squad of four, keeping someone on the ship with a walkie-talkie watching the monitors can be a literal lifesaver. * You can order multiples of an item at the store. Just type what you want, followed by the quantity (eg; "walkie-talkie 4") * Sounds attract company. So does your voice. * Eclipse means it's nighttime for the whole mission and all the fun extra friends that i...")
  • 16:38, 28 November 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Chants of Sennaar (Created page with "* The journal gives you 20 characters for guessing a glyph’s meaning. If you have multiple hypotheses, you can enter all of them and narrow it down later. It doesn’t have to be a specific word – eg you can enter “insulting adjective” or “warrior verb” if that’s your best guess. * Remember you can use the middle mouse button to reveal which objects or paths you haven’t interacted with yet. Make sure to click on everything and talk to every NPC, otherwi...")
  • 08:48, 27 November 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page The Last Faith (Created page with "* The first person you can bring back to the manor, the inventor, sells a gauntlet. This is not optional, but you wont need it for a long while and the game will not telegraph when it expects you to have it. * The side-quest with the dancer only requires you to talk to one other person who discusses dancing then returning to the dancer to get an achievement, but you actually need to go back to the other person you spoke to as they have a new item for you * When you get...")
  • 21:16, 14 November 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name (Created page with "* Unless you're desperate for cash, hold off on using the gambling cheat items until you reach platinum rank in the coliseum. You'll get access then to a couple new areas that let you play the highest stakes versions of those games. Category:Games")
  • 09:10, 8 November 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Lunacid (Created page with "* Damage types are important. Some enemies are resistant or immune to certain elements. * Some doors and switches are also activated by specific elements. * Some weapons can be upgraded by using them. You'll find a way to do this in the hub area. * You can identify upgradable weapons by seeing if they have their own experience bar in the inventory screen. * Activating or reactivating a crystal will restore your health and mana, but won't respawn enemies. * There are...")
  • 10:53, 6 November 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Slay the Princess (Created page with "* All progression is tied to your save file; no Doki Doki meta-shenanigans are needed. * One of the endings requires you to make a specific choice at the very beginning: <div class="spoiler">walk away from the cabin</div>. * Another ending changes based on your responses to the Voices In Your Head at a few important moments; you'll know when you see them. Category:Games")
  • 10:34, 5 November 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 - Turbocharged (Created page with "* The worth of vehicles are no longer tied to their rarity. The upgrade system has been revamped and all of them are good enough to run on their own with no further development. When you acquire one, you will have access to skills that can be slotted into your car. Green upgrades are related to car performance. Blue upgrades are to help you with boosting. These two tend to be the opposite of each other (but you can still use the skills within the same column just fine) a...")
  • 13:30, 28 October 2023 Ahobday talk contribs created page Sea of Stars (Created page with "* The game is set in the same universe as The Messenger....sort of. That said, it's entirely un-necessary to play that game and the references to it are extremely small. * You're told that doing the timed-button-presses (either when attacked or during skills) isn't particularly important. This is a lie. Learn the timing for attacks, both the enemies' and your own. It'll help a lot. * Don't bother doing any backtracking until the endgame, it's kind of a pain to get aro...")
