00:00:06 ER: Also I think you can break the front two "limbs" by hitting them, which will make it stop to repair itself, and you can hit its butt then
00:01:58 syv: Can you break those limbs without having to flank it?
00:03:06 ER: But I've mostly got them at the beginning of the fight
00:04:37 ER: ah, I've gotta go kill that robot now. >_>
00:08:11 ER: okay, now I've swapped out my chips for the boss
00:08:57 ER: got 9 heals now, and faster stam regen, and a bit more HP. At the cost of energy gain, a bit of stamina, and faster attacks at high energy
00:10:07 syv: Sounds good. Endurance, rather than DPS.
00:18:07 ER: I get its engines as dual-rigged weapons
00:19:09 syv: Oooh, rocket punching? That sounds fun.
00:19:14 syv: Are they at all practical?
00:20:52 ER: they don't seem to flame, but they hit really fast
00:21:26 syv: Lighting is blurgh, but at least you look much meatier now.
00:21:51 syv: That's disappointing. Rockets without fire are sad, sad things.
00:22:39 ER: legs are still mostly exposed, because lowering dodge's stamina cost is 2FUCKING GUD
00:23:47 ER: liquidator legs also provide a dodge bonus, but not as much, and they cost 1 extra core power to wear!
00:24:09 ER: *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge* *dodge*
00:24:49 ER: I can get in 5 with my stam bar, but fast regen too
00:27:24 ER: ooh, found a new staff weapon, too
00:27:56 syv: Anything special about it?
00:29:04 ER: um, and I already have a flamey staff
00:29:23 ER: this came with a DLC that added flamey weapons :P
00:29:34 syv: Plus you have rocket punches, who cares about staves?
00:29:35 ER: at least they weren't in a stash
00:30:05 ER: it adds flame weapons TO ENEMIES, so you can slice them off. :V
00:30:19 syv: ...Though come to think of it, how do staves do the limb-chopping attacks? Do you just hit people hard enough to decapitate them?
00:30:36 ER: also seems to have a different moveset? more spear pokey to the normal staff's kung fu moves
00:31:02 ER: As a reminder, basically nothing in this game is very sharp anyway.
00:31:25 ER: Also you're usually cutting through some metal when you do those.
00:32:05 ER: I imagine that's the justification for there being an energy cost to executions. You just overload your exo so much that you can cut things by hitting them really hard
00:33:03 syv: That... makes a surprising amount of sense, yeah,
00:39:05 ER: It's a little silly that the weapon named "firebug" does 0 damage :P
00:39:27 ER: it does the other damage types ;v
00:40:38 syv: Well yeah, obviously fire damage is done by biological weapons. Hence biomaster being a firespear.
00:41:53 syv: Maybe there's an explanation in the weapon descriptions?
00:52:02 ER: huh, it gives me a map of the area after I beat the area boss. :P
00:53:55 syv: Maps are something DaS could really use.
01:01:08 ER: I just noticed a screen that seems to show a particular enemy's weak spot
01:03:13 Devastator: and maybe you too,
ER. ;-p
01:06:34 syv: Why are there ants in my headphones?! D:
01:08:35 syv: That sounds like something to come out of a random loot table. "This pair of +2 headphones has exceptional sound quality, but perpetually generates ants."
01:41:57 ER: yeah, breaking the welder bot's front two legs makes it turn much slower, letting you strafe around the armor
01:42:08 ER: so there are multiple ways of dealing with it
01:42:18 syv: How do you break the legs? Standard targeting?
01:43:06 ER: while it's kinda annoying, I can appreciate how they made the robotic enemies actually as tough as metal if you just waltz up and punch one
01:43:26 Devastator: Next run: Punch only. ;-p
01:44:26 syv: Do rocketpunches count? :3
01:52:03 ER: They put a pipe in your hands from the first moment of gameplay and you can't take your weapon out of its slot.
01:52:17 ER: the "claw" type weapons are like, super good though
01:53:40 Devastator: claws aren't punches, though.
01:53:47 syv: Then do an "Only Human" run, where you don't equip any exoskeleton parts, only using the very base framework.
01:53:52 Devastator: if you're punching with a claw, you're doing it wrong.
01:55:03 syv: Wieldable claws are generally depicted like they'd function as push daggers. Better than as slashing weapons, anyway.
02:00:34 syv: I like how most of the tank crew in 888th is very calmly threatening each other with deadly force.
02:01:26 ER: that's how tank crews stay effective, right?
02:01:49 Devastator: Yeah.. if you can't be casual about deadly force, get out of the tank.
02:07:00 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
02:07:16 Devastator: Heya
MJ, how you doing?
02:08:03 MidJag: Ello
Dev, pretty good going back college in a couple days. So excited about that, how bout your self?
02:08:59 MidJag: A bit calm for my tastes but otherwise awesome :P
02:12:00 syv: No whining about it being too hwavy. >:(
02:12:21 MidJag: I am the last person to whine about something being heavy :P
02:12:40 MidJag: I legit like Both electric wizard and Death grips :P
02:13:09 syv: Even when it's 1.989*10^30 kg? Wowzers.
02:19:35 syv: This is more than I can handle! <.>
02:20:01 MidJag: It's always multiple :P
02:24:08 syv: The second is like trying to eat sharp, angry, crystalline insanity.
02:24:23 MidJag: I know right? It's awesome
02:25:21 syv: I guess those bears really hate rap.
02:26:01 MidJag: heh, I quite like that rap, pretty much the only rap I like
02:27:33 ER: jeez what are all these links
02:27:51 Devastator: someone providing mobile links to youtube.
02:28:04 MidJag: not the rap you posted
syv.
02:28:24 MidJag: I think all of them are mircale of sound judjing by the previews
02:28:50 ER: what is this discord heresy!
02:28:58 MidJag: Nah it's my IRC client.
02:29:32 syv: First two are MoS, third is Johnny Cash.
02:29:50 syv: I stand by my opinion that *that* song of his is rap.
02:31:13 syv: ...And the very first was Lindsey Sterling, because I felt something calming was justified after anger crystals.
02:31:18 MidJag: A lot of old country is somewaht rap like since it's spoken.
02:31:46 MidJag: Nothing is needed but more anger crystals :P
02:31:46 syv: Lucky Starr is OG rapper, prove me wrong.
02:33:24 MidJag: Lindsey sterling is suprisinglly not bad.
02:33:42 MidJag: Not enough anger crystals though :P
02:59:39 ER: pile all that music in one place :P
03:04:52 ER wonders idly if her can get someone *else* to do all the work on refine
03:05:21 ER: apparantly my subconsious thinks I'm a girl and is also bad at grammer
03:06:52 syv: If you make the barebones of the system and throw it at me I'll probably be incapable of resisting the urge to "fix" it.
03:07:10 syv: That's how pretty much all "my" systems are created, anyway.
03:07:34 syv: (Also, not surprised, your subconscious knows the truth~)
03:08:09 ER: Problem being that my system is simple as fuck and thus already finished. REst is not-mechanical, worldy stuff
03:08:32 syv: Oh. I suck at that stuff. Ask
PW;
03:08:33 ER: which I logically can't make someone else do and also end up with my own world, as much as I want to :P
03:08:47 syv: Invent a time machine and kidnap future-you.
03:09:26 ER: Capture
PW's soul and bind it to myself, you say?
03:09:33 syv: Hell, tell you what: If you invent the time machine, *I'll* do the kidnapping legwork, and even the interrogation and forced writing. I totally got the room for a hostage, plus the guns and tools for intimidation.
03:09:41 syv: Just let me keep the time machine as payment.
03:10:37 ER: If I invent a time machine, I'm just going to retire to a time loop and forget this nonsense
03:10:38 Devastator: you don't want to do that,
ER, it'll make you a skelebone.
03:11:00 ER: eh, the flesh doesn't work too well anyway
03:11:55 Devastator: A Skelebon sounds more like a pastry.
03:12:08 ER: decent for brute force and fine work if I'm paying attention, but no idea what my toes think they're doing.
03:12:42 syv: You're better off. Toes get some disturbing ideas.
03:13:10 ER: Well, I gathered that it was disturbing when the stuff started rotting
03:13:49 syv: It gets worse. Much worse. Knife-against-your-throat worse.
03:14:24 ER: are foot fetishes just people giving into the depraved nature of their own toes?
03:15:29 ER: I wonder if my toes think I'm a girl too.
03:15:45 syv: Why did the Carpenter Brut start screaming at me with a distorted YYYAAAAAAAYYYYYYEEEEE voice?
03:16:14 syv: Toes are actually genderfluid and cannot understand the distinction between male/female, so no.
03:19:33 Devastator: Until someone decides they're something else, of course..
03:20:47 ER: what if I'm a chimera with female, no-y-chromozone toes?
03:21:47 syv: The toes don't understand chimeras. That's a different fetish, they're all about feet, screw everything else. Err, nothing else?
03:23:19 syv: I wonder if it's possible for a horse to develop a hoof fetish.
03:23:30 ER: is there a monster made entirely of toes?
03:23:42 syv: Probably in someone's imagination.
03:24:08 ER: a-are you saying that monster's aren't real? q-q
03:24:57 syv: Humans are the only real monsters.
03:25:10 syv: ...Maybe cows, too. Cows kill a lot of people.
03:25:55 Devastator: Hippos are monsters.
03:26:16 syv: Psh, don't be discriminative, Komodos are peaceful as hell. It's the Komato you're thinking of, and I sincerely hope they don't exist.
03:26:32 ER: the true "AMM FUCKING INVINCIBLE" of the animal kingdom
03:26:57 Devastator: Hippos are really, silly agressive.
03:27:08 ER: Komato are terrifying, of course. And do not exist.
03:31:24 syv: If I tap that, Brut will stop playing.
03:32:39 ER: tl;dr is that tardigrades have absurdly unnessesary resistances to things like extreme hot and cold, an radiation, but aren't actually very hardy otherwise.
03:33:04 syv: Yeah, they're actually prey for a bunch of other things IIRC.
03:34:33 MidJag: But they are so damn cool
03:35:20 syv: SURVIVE EXTREME RADIATION. VACUUM OF SPACE. PRESSURES ALIEN TO THIS EARTH.
03:36:05 syv: They're all magical girls with three levels in Immaculate Soul.
03:36:21 syv: Which goes to show how much that passive sucks~
03:36:58 ER: the video basically says "resistance to armageddon =/= resistance to regular attacks"
03:37:42 ER: hey, everyone won't be laughning when we get an underwater level and everyone but me drowns.
03:38:05 Devastator: Immaculate soul would be good right now.
03:39:43 MidJag: I read a book where a dude is good enough at metal bending he covers his skin in metal and just powers through the pain and it's one of the most metal things I've ever seen.
04:13:12 ER: been having terrible visions of running a suggestion game myself, but I should probably disregard that feeling
04:13:38 syv: Run "You are the Chosen Undead, and also a cat".
04:14:07 Devastator: big cat, little cat, what?
04:14:16 syv: Housecat. Adorable. Miauw.
04:14:42 Devastator: Heh, that might be another challenge.
04:15:36 ER: the game would be "In your dreams," and thus probably insufferably pretentious. But also it allows for being the chosen undead who is also a cat.
04:16:49 syv: ...But I really wanna see a game just like your Dark Souls IRC thingy, but also with the PC being a cat.
04:17:05 syv: Though I'd be happy if you just ran the Dark Souls IRC thing again.
04:18:40 ER: yeah, but that one might require some CPU power if I don't just restrict to to asylum
04:19:12 syv: Then only run it in 30 fps.
04:19:27 syv: I can tolerate a laggy Blighttown too, don't worry;
04:19:44 ER: Because it's taking how things *are* in DS, and applying real world logic to it, like being able to climb up walls or whack things with the bonfire sword
04:20:13 syv: But also applying vidya gaem logic like the bricks despawning to save CPU power.
04:23:26 ER: for in this land, the undead are corraled and led to the north
04:23:43 ER: where they are locked away, to await the end of the world
04:24:08 Devastator: Combat games where each level you play a less powerful version of whatever creature you were for the last mission. ;-p
04:24:40 syv: I.E. you just play a normal guy and continually get more debuffs, I.E. the Scorched Contract mod.
04:24:50 syv: I still haven't beat that. Gwyn is hard. :(
04:27:17 ER: this is inconvenient but just part of being a meatling I guess
04:27:54 ER: if you have neat ideas PM them to me! :P
04:27:56 syv: If you wait like ten minutes I'm done with the update.
04:28:24 ER: you mean the update to a game I'm not actually in?
04:29:02 syv: The one that you post in more reliably than the actual players. :P
04:29:07 ER: still biologically required to sleep so

04:31:38 syv: Since when do I not procrastinate forever about updates?
04:31:53 syv: Since when is
Dev not complaining?
04:32:10 syv: Since when does Bemmu say anythi... well, okay, some things are still normal.
04:32:43 Devastator: complaining about what?
04:33:25 syv: Everything Round, especially.
04:33:40 Devastator: ..not much to complain about today.
04:33:48 Devastator: I already got unreasonably angry at someone.
04:34:02 Devastator: They haven't been around.
04:34:09 Devastator: Everyonething's updating.
04:34:44 Devastator: The fires haven't been as bad as last year, or as close, but the winds have been blowing all the ashes at here instead of mostly away from here, unlike last year.
04:34:46 syv: The large cat near your house
04:34:57 Devastator: I haven't seen the cougar around for a while.
04:36:20 syv: ...Well, I guess that one's more the LACK of dirt, but still. Soil. Earth. Ground.
04:45:41 Devastator: I could always buy you about werewolves some more.
04:47:04 syv: Sure, werewolves. Drunk werewolves.
MJ, you've gotta have an appropriate song for that!
04:47:23 MidJag: Drunk werewolves? Hmmm, probably actually.

04:59:33 syv: Finally posted update. Blah. Feel like it's poor but I always feel like that. Tired.
05:00:14 syv: For Gean, when he reads the logs: THANK YOU for the Brut, Brut is good background music.
05:01:46 syv: Egan. Except I hit Shift-G-E-A-N rather than Shift-E-G-A-N.
05:07:13 Devastator:
Syv doesn't know what Octodad is.
05:07:28 Devastator: I suggested given ben his power in Coven.
05:07:35 syv: Finally because I should've been asleep an hour ago and instead drank caffeine.
05:09:57 syv: What was that explanation vid for 8dad you sent me before,
Dev?
05:11:28 Devastator: It's not an explanation vid, but you'll get everything in 2 minutes.
05:16:14 Devastator:
RC said someone made dick-seeking arrows in the new magic arms race.

07:33:24 Devastator: Well, that was fun.
07:33:28 Devastator: Guy whiffed on Jigger Johnson.
07:33:32 Devastator: This one the guy should know.
07:41:05 Devastator: Heh, I'm counting that as a win.
07:41:26 Devastator: Took three sets of questions to come up with Corwin of Amber. (I picked his brother Benedict.)
07:43:49 Devastator: Yeah, credited with that.
07:44:51 Devastator: "Has your character been sent to another world" seems to have been the key question.
07:46:29 Devastator: The annoying part is that the big question to distinguish between them is what clothing they wear and specific events that have happened to them, and a question came up about clothing colour AND if the character has lost his memory, (both nos), with the second one should have ruled out Corwin.
07:48:01 Devastator: okay, if he misses this one it's too easy to stump.
07:50:32 Devastator: There we go. Took 35 questions and a wrong guess first, though..
07:53:20 Devastator: "Character already played 271 times" Heh, that's actually pretty low.
08:04:17 Devastator: And that's a disspointing win there.
08:09:29 Devastator: Finally. Sheesh, I keep having to tone it down to find guys that this thing can guess.
08:14:30 Devastator: Hmm.. I was playing MoO the other day. I wonder if it can guess who Steven Barcia is.
08:17:48 Devastator: Dammit, I've seen a picture of him before, but I can't find one now.
08:25:27 Devastator: There we go, that's a picture.
08:27:55 Devastator: Astounding, all these company questions but no 'Is your character associated with EA?'
08:29:51 Devastator: Oh, shit, I was wrong for some of them. Nintendo of America bought his studio out for a year or two.
08:30:17 Devastator: although.. he doesn't work for them now, so that's okay.
08:32:41 Devastator: And that's a win. Didn't have him in the database, so never would have came up.
