texts:
Spoilers for first hour of the game (and not much more, since that's about how much I played).

So, In this game there seems to be the concept of finding the souls of dead people stuck in the world, and somehow "guiding them" - which so far meant doing a conversation, asking them to follow you and they disappear.

However, after getting Xoti as a companion she has a special interaction - instead of asking them to follow you, she does something with her lantern. Souls encountered that way get added to the description of the lantern which suggests it's important.

Does she get to do that to the souls I already met before and told to follow me (the two on the beach you land on)? What's the difference between having her do that and just talking to ghost and having them "follow you"?


texts: What does each character's special do, and how do you trigger them?

texts:
Each fighter in Lethal League seems to have a different special ability which can be activated once the special bar is filled by a few hits on the ball.  For instance, Raptor's steam trading card describes the following:

  Raptor is a rookie in the Lethal League scene, hailing from the south. Though young, he’s very determined and fiercely competitive. His weapon of choice is a metal baseball bat and his special ability allows him to twist around and quickly hit the ball two times in a row.

I've seen this in action in the game.  I also know that it's triggered by double tapping attack on the ball.  I've figured out that Switch's special is triggered by tapping jump again while in the air, but can't really work out what it does specifically.  I've also seen Latch eat the ball during his special and become able to spit it out in any direction again, but I have no idea how to trigger this when playing as him.

What do each of the special abilities do, and how are they triggered?

texts:
I want to play Dispel on rather modern PC: Windows 8.1 (x64), Intel i5-3570k, Radeon r9 380. This is an old game (1999) and unpopular, so it was never remastered or even patched for systems, that are newer then XP. It's really buggy also, so it may have hardware problems because of using dirty hacks instead of normal video driver API. Nevertheless, it requires DirectX 7.
If I try to run the game as administrator (otherwise it won't work), I get "Cannot install driver" message. The same problem in every compatibility mode.
If I try to launch Dispel under Windows XP in Oracle VM Virtualbox, I get another error: "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005)." This happens regardless on 2D/3D acceleration enabled.
What other tricks can I try (excluding installing XP in dualboot)? Can I get some information about the error with any kind of debugger (for example, which particular library initialization failed)?

execute @e[name=CT1, type=minecart] ^ ^ ^ tp @e[name=CT2, type=minecart] ^-1.6 ^ ^
However this makes the minecart teleport like crazy and forces it off the rail. Is there a way to make this better? Thanks in advance :)

I'm trying to complete the training missions in Jane's 688(I) Hunter/Killer and I'm having trouble hitting the training submarine targets. I've turned on active sonar and I can see the target, I load two ADCAP torpedoes and:

Set the target
Set the floor to be 1500ft
Set them to enable before they reach the target (say 4500 yards)

Once they launch they head towards the target, their little target thing goes reddish but then they "conduct a turn away maneuver" and disable instead of exploding.

Simple experiments seem to suggest that the cart will keep moving once it's going even if I save/exit and come back, but is this always true? Is there a chance someone playing my map could get to this puzzle and find the minecart stationary?


texts: Magic Find worse for finding unique/sets in Baal runs?

texts:
It always seemed to me that if I do a Baal run without MF, I get more unique/sets and less rares.

So I thought to make a couple dozen runs on Baal Nightmare to see how it works.
After 15 runs without MF and 15 runs with 280 MF, I got more than twice unique/sets on the runs without MF.

Is this just a bizarre coincidence, or actually you have better chance of getting uniques without MF from bosses since the chance to drop rares is increased more than the chance to get uniques by MF?

However, on the official page I didn't find anything that would suggest this, but on the contrary magic find is better for finding uniques even for bosses.

I'm a little confused so can someone please clarify this.


texts: Is there any special benefit to defending a "tall" gym?

texts:
Sometimes the map icon of a gym is taller than usual. Based on what I've found online, this means that the total CP in the gym is at least 8000. I've also seen it implied that this is highly desirable, for example this tier list referencing the "gym-height strat" multiple times, but none of the sources I've found have explained why it's so important.

Is there any benefit to gym height beyond the obvious benefit of higher total CP, like maybe additional defensive bonuses, slower CP decay, or better rewards?


texts:
Tower of Guns is a quick-playing first-person-shooter with roguelike elements: the map is semi-randomized (around the theme of each level), enemies are random, and death is permanent. There are also secrets scattered randomly around: some walls are illusory, some places are hard to get to, and some corners are simply out of the way. There are around 4 to 6 secrets per level, and I've never found more than 33% in any given level. (Also, there's a gun that unlocks if you find 5 secrets in a level.)

I want to know where I should be looking. I realize the game is too large to exhaustively list where each one can be found, but is there a theme or pattern of where secrets tend to appear? Are there visual cues I should look for? Do secrets always repeat, so that if I've found a secret in a particular room, that secret will always be there if I find that room in a future game?

texts:
I already have all the ammo pouches, rucksacks, etc. (well it says Owned All against each one in the menu). Is there any reason I should still skin animals?

I could sell the skins, but that's a laborious process as they aren't linked to the quick sell option so I'd have to do it manually for each. Also I'm never short of cash - if anything I tend to get to much cash I can't spend it all!

Is there any benefit to hunting and keeping skins now?

I'm thinking its possible some more equipment options might open up later, as is the case with weapons, or there may be a bonus in collecting X amounts of skins, but if not I'll just sell everything and spend the cash on flamethrower ammo instead.

How is it calculated how many trophies an attacker wins (or looses) at the end of the match? I ask because I'm wondering does it ever make sense to "end battle" early, or is it better to let all deployed troops to destroy as much as possible to increase the trophies count?

For example I've seen people end games when only giants are remaining and they end the battle because giants can't attack the resources. Does this logic make sense or should they let the giants takeout as much defense as possible to increase bonus and trophy count?

The rectangles seem to show up especially during daytime in the game. Maybe someone has had the same problem? What would be a fix for this? I have had similar kind of problem in Batman Arkham City, but there workaround for this was simply to restart the game. I tried this also on GTA V and for one time it seemed to work, but couldn't really confirm this yet.

I managed to take the screenshots when the glitch happens. You can see them here:

UPDATE

It seems I'm having similar troubles as posted here:

PS3 graphics Stretching Glitch

It might be my GPU failing...I'm having similar issues in different games...some less, some more...for example in Killzone 3, Batman Arkham City and GTA 5..

What would be my best action? Buy a new PS3 or change for example the thermal paste on my PS3 and do thorough dust cleaning?...I tried setting my PS3 to fridge for 30 mins and tried playing and the problem went away...for 10-15 minutes :/ It seems the PS3 gets too hot...

UPDATE 2

I just want to add here that I tried cleaning the PS3, but it didn't help, so I bought a new one and the problem got fixed! So the problem was the old PS3.

texts:
As a next step in my recent retro-revival adventure I picked up Tekken 1. I've never played it before because I've never owned a Playstation and I'm currently playing it on PC using an emulator and USB pad controllers.

I took some time to learn the moves for Kazuya (decided to focus on one character and he looked cool) but the problem is I'm getting my ass handed to me on easy most of the time on the later stages. The computer characters storm me and I don't have a chance to hit them back. One problem I'm having is King, he runs at me as I'm on the ground, and keeps doing body slams on me while I'm lying down. I keep mashing the dpad to get up but somehow the computer does it much quicker than I can. He also has this move where he keeps kicking low in a combo which I can't interrupt or block and which stuns me if it connects so he can do it again and keep it up forever.

I got as far as Lee, but I've never won a single round against him. He keeps kicking at me in an infinite combo, which I can block, but every now and then one of these kicks is low and gets through the block.

The other problem I'm having is that it's very difficult for me to do the special moves, I can pull them off about every 1 in 10 times. Unless I time it exactly right (not too fast, not too slow), the move doesn't work. Is it supposed to be like this?

What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

texts: Is the Lucozade can bonus in Superfrog just a troll?

texts:
This is a side question to Can I reach this place in Superfrog?
Having played the Team 17 game Superfrog back in the DOS era, I always remembered the odd dead end found in the lower right part of level 5-4.

The play area ends in what looks like a joke, an unfinished drawing. Under the reachable path, one can see a  small area with a few bonus including an extra live. No mater what the player can try, there seem to be no way to reach that area.
What seems odd though is the presence of a power-up shaped like a Lucozade can. As some may already know the game was indeed sponsored by Lucozade. The main character got his power by drinking Lucozade in the game intro and Lucozade bottles where used as energy refiles thru the game.

Yet... I don't remember the Lucozade CAN bonus being used anywhere else in the game. Is this really the case? Is that bonus obtainable elsewhere or is it just part of the unreachable area troll?

texts:
I noticed stealth-related gene tonics in BioShock: Wrench Lurker 1 and 2 ("Increases Wrench damage by 150% or 200% (respectively) against unaware or shocked opponents and quietens the user's footsteps").

Since the game does appear to have stealth mechanics, I would like to know how do they work: how does the enemy AI detect the player?

Specifically, I would like to know:

Do the sounds you make matter? (from weapon sounds, gunfire, plasmid/gene tonic effects to walking on different types of floor)

Will crouch walking lessen sound?
Will wearing Big Daddy boots affect stealth? (Once Jack gets the Big Daddy boots at Point Prometheus, Jack will wear it, and the sound of his footsteps will change to that of a Big Daddy's.)

Does sight or light levels matter? Can I lurk in the shadows? Sneak behind people? Hide behind objects? Being on a different level (a floor up or down)?
Once you're spotted, is hiding effective? Do enemies alert each other?
Any enemies with unique behavior when it comes to player detection?
Does difficulty matter?

When I hold my left mouse button down for a while to break blocks, and then I let it go, my avatar continues to break blocks. I can only stop it by left-clicking it once more. It is completely fine for all other games, it only does it for Minecraft.

How do I fix this problem?


texts: How would you copy a player's inventory into a double chest?

texts:
I am on a multiplayer Minecraft realm in 1.16 and I was wondering if there was any way to set a chest's Items to a player's entire Inventory including the offhand and armor slots.
Using
data modify <chest coordinates> Items set from entity <player> Inventory, I was only able to copy over the hotbar and the top two rows of a player's inventory.
I honestly don't care if it takes 50 command blocks, any response is gladly appreciated.

The title explains most of it. I have a lenovo G580, originally windows 8, since I upgraded to windows 10 I got a crash report. I tried downloading Intel's upgrading graphics card software, it didn't work(That's how it's different from other questions!!). What should I do to fix it?

texts:
So, as we know, equipping yourself with a metal weapon, shield or bow can cause you to attract lightning during a storm. This can be either painful, or hilarious, depending on whether or not you have the lightning helm.

But, my question is does wearing more metal equipment increase the frequency, or decrease the timer for attracting lightning strikes, and can wearing metal armour affect this as well?

I've seen a lot about liblwjgl being a problem for a lot of people using 32 bit linux, but I am definitely using 64 bit, and my java version is:
openjdk version "1.8.0_265"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_265-8u265-b01-0ubuntu2~20.04-b01)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.265-b01, mixed mode)

The other day, I managed to get minecraft to load by using this command to download lwjgl:
sudo apt-get install -y liblwjgl-java-doc

I tried to do this again, and still I get the same error message as mentioned above.
I tried downloading the lwjgl separately and placing in the minecraft files but this also did not work (http://programster.blogspot.com/2012/08/ubuntu-12-fix-minecraft-blank-screen.html)

texts: How can I obtain Final Fantasy Adventure for a Mobile phone in the US?

texts:
A little back story.  The first (quasi) RPG I ever played was Final Fantasy Adventure.  At that time, I was quite the platformer fan and NES Zelda games, although moderately fun, never caught my attention for long.

One day at a flee market I picked up Final Fantasy Adventure for a couple bucks and I fell in love with the experience of leveling up, weapon selection and getting engaged in the story.  I was hooked and from then on I was a hardcore RPGer*.

Because of it's personal history, FFA has a special place in my gaming heart.  Every few years I pull out my old cart, slap it in my old-school GB and play it for a few hours.  It doesn't matter where my saved file is-- I've practically memorized what to do from any place in the game and it's always still just as enjoyable as it's initial discovery.

Today, I learned that back in 2006 a Japanese version was released for mobile phones that was quite similar to the original, but with updated graphics.  As an uber-fan... I MUST PLAY THIS GAME.

Sorry, I'm still a bit excited.  The problem is I live in the US and I would have no clue how to obtain a mobile game from an international market.  Can this be done?  Is there an emulator for such a thing and, if so, where can I find it.  I don't mind that the game's text will be in Japanese.  I can't read it but, honestly, I don't have too.

Yes, I get it.  I'm a bit of an obsessive nerd.  Any help, however, is much appreciated.

Thanks!

*I know that FFA isn't a typical RPG.  However, it did have RPG elements and it lead me to other games in the FF story-line.  I fell in love with the traditional RPG style as much as I had the Action-RPG style of FFA and I've never looked back.

texts: Does Pyrovision give the wearer an advantage in TF2?

texts:
I've really enjoyed the Pyromania Update and Pyrovision in particular.  Meanwhile, my game has improved.  I used to be slaughtered on public servers and now I'm regularly getting a kill/death ratio around 1.  (Both before and after the update I gravitate toward playing as a Pyro.)  Maybe that's not the best metric, but I do feel like I'm scoring more points and helping the team better with Pyrovision enabled.  I have three theories:

The simpler graphics of the mode improve my framerate, which improves my game,
The simpler graphics of the mode make finding enemies and other important game objects easier, which improves my game, and/or
I've just gotten better/lucky since the change.

I'm looking for answers that either demonstrate objectively the plausibility of #1 or #2.  Basically, I'd like to know if there really is a difference or if I'm being fooled by all the balloons, lollipops, rainbows and whatnot.

texts: Is it possible to pick up secondary weapons in COD?

texts:
In COD, is it possible to pick up secondary weapons from defeated opponents, or can I only swap out my primary weapon? I never took much notice of this before, but after having a break from COD and recently playing again this has become quite obvious to me.

In many other games that I have played it is possible to replace any weapon being carried, but in COD I cannot seem to work out how to do this for secondary weapons. This would be especially useful for dual wielding since ammunition is spent at a much faster rate.

Can this be done?

texts: Is there any way to have sound while The Secret World is not the focused program?

texts:
In a number of other games I play, there is an option in the Sound menu or similar that allows me to still hear my sounds even when alt-tabbed out of the game. Generally, this option is something like "Allow Sound while Alt-Tabbed" or "Allow Sound while Not Focus". The Secret World's Audio Options menu is rather sparse, and doesn't have such an option, however. I was also unable to find a similar option in any of the other option menus.

Therefore, is it possible to still hear my game sounds while alt-tabbed out of The Secret World? Use of a Funcom-approved UI mod or in-game console commands is okay, I'd just like to be able to hear things while alt-tabbed.


texts: Change username background transparency in Minecraft with Optifine

texts:
I'm a Minecraft: Java Edition player, and I use the graphics mod called Optifine. It's great, and so are the shaders that you can get for it. But I'm running into one problem that is irking (but very so)-
All usernames in the game are backgrounded in black!
Optifine is not the one doing this, but it is allowing it. Some of the shader packs I am using are causing this occurrence, and I notice that they are shading it in black, and not in transparent gray, when the name lines up with the background. It is most likely there to improve visibility, and the black background continues through blocks. Of course, this is not a problem in single player worlds, but in servers where there are either a ton of people or the NPCs are named to have long hover text over them, it gets annoying to see gigantic black blobs on my screen.
I have tried looking in the Minecraft accessibility settings and the Optifine video settings, but I found nothing that solved the problem. I also looked in the shader settings of the shaders that were causing it, namely Sildur's Vibrant Shaders and Chocapic13's High Performance Shaders, but I couldn't find anything there either.
This problem is annoying mostly because those two shaders are the only ones that have a chance of running on my PC. I don't like vanilla graphics though, and I like low-reflection shadow tracing and colored lights.

texts: How are PP scores from 'Top Ranks' weighted?

texts:
On the user profile page, there is a list of 50 Top Ranks which each has a PP score:

The scores are weighted, as you can see on the right. I assume this weighted PP score is what goes into the total PP calculation.

The question is: How is this weight determined?

I have noticed at one time that the first score was weighted at a 100%, and the second was 98%, but it has changed since then. It seems like the weight gets smaller faster when the scores are higher?

But does this include Protoss Pylons, Terran Energy Depots, and Vespene Refineries?


texts: Does getting 100% in levels gain me anything?

You have to do a number of things in each level for the game to be convinced you have gotten 100 percent completion (get 300 coins, get the hidden page, get the letters L-U-C-K-Y, and finish the level).

Do you get anything special for doing this? It doesn't seem so from the first two levels, but is there something I am missing? Do I get something other than a sense of completion and satisfaction?

texts: Are you more likely to find a monster in a cave during the day?

texts:
Because some monsters can't stay overground during the day or they will set fire it would make sense for them to stay underground.
Since monsters spawn overground more during the night do they spawn underground more during the day?

I know that monsters spawn in low light but I swear half of the time when I'm exploring a cave and there will be no monsters (like during the day, overground), and then the other half I'm being attacked from multiple sides by literal hordes of monsters with no escape (like at night).

So is it safer to explore caves during the night like it is safer to explore the overworld during the day?

texts:
So, I play the game on blood, sweat and tears. It's a good challenge, especially the bossmobs take me a while to beat and the game is overall really fun and challenging.

Recently, i started the quest

   Now or Never where you have to help triss and several other wizards to escape from the city.

I ran through and killed the drowner, not a big problem. But then I encountered the katakan, and this guy is either buggy or completely unfair. I'm level 12, focused on the quick attack tree (20% bonus dmg with quick attacks) and I'm quite good at dodging attacks and dancing abround the battlefield. But I just can't beat this guy. He is regenerating health so damn fast that it's impossible for me to kill him. I have to attack nonstop, and once he hits me once, the delay is big enough to give him time to heal completely. Even casting Quen is not an option, since the delay is too big and he will just run away.

The stuff I've tried:

Using Thunderbolt potions, Quen and a flurry of quick attacks
Trapping him with Yrden
Using Igni to keep him damaged

None of them worked. I didn't even get him to 90% HP.

Is there ANY way to deal with this guy. Please not that I don't want to lower the difficulty.

texts: Heroes of Might & Magic 3 adventure map object reference

texts:
I remember seeing quite a while ago an "official-looking" PDF file containing a complete reference of HoMM III, including, most importantly, information on Adventure Map objects (such as probabilities of getting a certain reward when attacking an Imp Cache, and the number of guards).

The question: where can I find this file? Thank you.


texts: How can I deal with monster spawns in Sokoban?

texts:
A few times recently in Sokoban, I've been having issues with inconvenient monster spawns that end up blocking my boulders. I most frequently run into this trouble when I'm nearing the completion of a level, when the level's long "pit corridor" is almost entirely filled in. Although I've verified the hallway as being fully clear of obstacles ahead of time, by the time I walk back to my boulder and push it all the way through the passageway, occasionally a monster has suddenly appeared in the hallway in front of the remaining pit(s) and I get stuck.

The only thing that I can figure is happening is that a monster is spawning in the passage after I check it, but before I'm able to get the boulder to the pit (with no real opportunities to re-check the corridor as I move the boulder due to the structure of the level). I can always destroy the boulder and use/create another, but I'd obviously like to avoid the Luck penalties if possible.

Is there any good way to mitigate the odds of this happening, and/or fixing the problem when it does? Methods that would be reasonably accessible to an early-game character (and, ideally, without assessing Luck penalties) would be preferable.

Are there any BOP item from crafting? Or maybe some other perks.

texts:
Every time I assign a fief, I get +20 with the lord I assign it to.

I also get -5 with every other lord.

Now given that I have 8 lords. If I assign everyone a fief, thats:

 20 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 = -15;

So basically my the more fiefs I capture the more I am hated. This is definately a flaw in the game.

I hear that having a family as your lords means it instead goes up for everyone. But lets be honest, its hard enough getting Lords on your side, Im sure not dropping all my existing and then trying to get more from scratch. Im at war, I need them.

Also, I guess I could assign all fiefs to one Lord til they hit 100, then move on to the next. But the negative I will gain with the lords would be huge. And could lead to them deserting.

I tried this TweakMB. It doesn't find the files. I select Floris 1.50. Im running Floris 1.53. How can I do it manually. I cant find the right info online.

texts: How can I find out how many 2* champions are there on Marvel Contest of the Champions?

texts:
Not every champions has a 1*, 2*, 3*, 4* version. Every time I get a 2* champion it is a duplicate, which makes me believe I have collected them all. But there is no way I can know for sure without looking at a list of all 2* champions. Something that cannot be found in-game.

After reading through many outdated forum posts from Kabam and GameFAQs I decided to ask here.

How do I find out how many 2* champions are there on Marvel CoC? Is there a list in-game? Is there an official list?

texts: Is there an easy way to calculate a block's light level?

texts:
I'm trying to build a house out of ice, for no other reason than sheer novelty. (Though perhaps also because I want to use my Silktouch I pickaxe)

Ice is a very finicky building material, prone to melting when exposed to the "normal" light levels of a torch. Specifically, if any adjacent block attains a light level of 12 from anything other than direct sunlight, it will melt.

And so, I reach a conundrum. I want to light my house enough so that I can see while walking through it, and also enough to completely prevent mobs from spawning inside my house. This means I want to keep the light level approximately between 8 and 11: easy enough to do someplaces, but a pain in the butt to calculate for every potential spawnable square.

Is there some way to identify the light level of a block without the tediousness of manually calculating each block's light level? I'd prefer an external tool over a mod, but I'm willing to consider the latter anyway.

texts: Does bonus damage against  apply to elite mobs of the same type?

texts:
Everything is in title.

To clarify a little more, I have the legendary weapon "Pig Sticker", with the two following affix :
+30% damage against Humans
+25% Damage against Beasts

So it gives +25% damage against any beasts (dark moon clan warrior, spiders, cursed nest, etc.)
Those mobs are beasts because the have the affix "Beast"

But what about their elite version?
Elite versions have their special elite affix (molten, avenger, etc.), but no Beast affix.
So are they still considered Beasts, and does the bonus against beast apply to them?

Secondary question, if Bonus damage against Beast applies to elites:
How does it interact with Bonus Damage against elites? Additively or multiplicatively?


texts:
After hearing that Super Meat Boy is finally available for Linux via Steam I've gone back to playing it and imported my already existing save game into Steam by moving it to the steamapps folder. Now I'm facing the problem that the achievement "The End" is not  getting unlocked, although I've beaten Dr. Fetus in the Light World (and every other Light World level except those in Cotton Alley) multiple times (both before importing the save game into Steam and after), which, according to all the information I found, should unlock it.

I've also tried starting Steam and Super Meat Boy on Windows but that didn't help either.
Other achievements are getting unlocked without any problems.

Now I'm wondering if there are further requirements for the achievement or if this is (yet another) bug in one of McMillens games? If the latter is the case, is there any workaround like the achievement fix for The Binding of Isaac? If not, what else can I try to get the achievement?

I've been looking around a lot, asking friends etc. about how the playthrough system specifically works in Borderlands 2 I am completely new to the franchise but have a decent idea of how things work.

I simply ask what specifically happens/changes in each playthrough , such as if gear will level up with you, at what points gear levels to you and so on. I may end up asking a few questions too. (Don't take it to heart about your skill at explaining things, I'm a slow learner :P).

P.S Bear in mind this is the Handsome Collection, playing on PS4. I will have all DLCs.

On paper, it seems like Omnipotent is better hands down(26 total stats, with the 10 necromantic bypassing armor vs 10 slashing), but why does it have a HUGE difference in stars? Katana is a level 10 Sword class weapon vs the level 4 sword class of Omnipotent Pork Sword.

Is there something I'm missing here?

texts: How can I reach the score target for level 97?

texts:
For as little as it ashames me to admit it, I've actually played 96 levels of this fun little Bejeweled clone wrapped around in its freemium economy bullshit. The reviews mentioned that level 65 would've been really hard, and it was, but nothing dumb luck eventually couldn't solve; the goal was clear and it was obvious to understand how to reach it. Achieving it was the challenge.

That's not so true for level 97.

The 95-110 level pack, "Salty Canyon", introduces the time bomb. Basically it's candies that explode if not cleared in a number of turns. When a candy explodes the game ends immediately. Now, level 97 has a really small bomb-shaped field where bombs drop as you destroy them; you only have 25 moves and you must reach 100,000 points. Spoiler alert: that's a whole lot of points. Destroying a bomb is only 3k. A perfect run would destroy two candies every other turn for a total of 72k, with 28k more points to be scored from combinations. That is... really hard to do though.

My best run so far reached 90k by destroying bombs almost every turn while creating rather special candies at an alarming pace; the only thing I didn't do was the "hypercube-hypercube" swap.

What am I missing? How am I supposed to score that much?

texts: How do you get Dijkstra's treasure back?

texts:
So there must be a way to get the location where Menge stashed the treasure, because Dijkstra can provide support for the Kaer Morhen battle. The problem is, all the guides and/or walkthroughs I've located online just say "go all the way through the conversation with Menge." I've done that, several times, and still Geralt is left looking at Dijkstra going "Uhhhh, I dunno where the treasure is."

Specifically, the guides say which dialogue options to use, up to "Witchers will do anything for gold." Then they say to ask after the treasure, and Menge will just tell you. When I do it, Menge essentially goes "Lol, why would I tell you that?" I'll check again, but I'm away from my Witcher 3 capable PC for another few days.

How do I discover it's location so I don't piss Dijkstra off?

As I played through the campaign, Batman started looking a bit rough around the edges.  His cape is torn, and he's got tons of damage to his Batsuit.  I realize this is all cosmetic, but now that I've finished the campaign I'd kind of like to get him back to "mint condition NRFB Batman A++++" condition.

I know there are some "alternate Bataman" skins floating around as well (mostly through pre-order and DLC bonuses, I assume) that I could switch to, so I assume there's got to be some sort of "skin menu" I'm missing here.

Besides calling Alfred and asking for the world's toughest sewing kit, how do I "fix" Batman's outfit?

texts: Which exact weapons do each alien enemy race has?

texts:
I've seen that sniper has an ability to disable main weapon and I was wondering which exact weapons do each enemy have.

For example Sectoids and Flotaers have a plasma gun but seems they don't have grenades... Do they have plasma pistol> If I disable its main weapon, will be they able to shoot with anything?

Cyberdiscs seems to have grenades, but I think I've seen them to shoot several grenades, so not sure if disable will let them to shoot grenades or not.

So my question is: Which exact weapons (and in which quantity in case of objects) do each alien enemy race has?

texts: Will completing the Dark Brotherhood quest chain hinder any significant quests/events?

texts:
I have an overall planned story for my character, part of which runs through the Dark Brotherhood. One of the first sets of contracts you do for them include killing one person that I know starts a small quest (very small in this case). I am wondering if I should be aware of any significant events that these contracts might remove from the game. Hover the spoiler to see the small one I mention above.

For what its worth, Google led me to a few articles on reasons not to join the Dark Brotherhood that all ended up being speculation, and a post on the gamefaq forums that also did not provide useful information.

   One of the first people you kill is Narfi who's sister you can search for if you are not out to get him. This is a very short/minor quest (with not too bad rewards actually) however.

texts: Were all the heroes in Overwatch part of the original Overwatch organization?

texts:
As I understand it, the game Overwatch takes place a few years after the Omnic Crisis, where robots attacked and the group called Overwatch was originally put together to fight back. But for years, Overwatch has been disbanded, and only now it seems to be coming back to right the wrongs of the world.

The part that confuses me is that there are a lot of heroes in Overwatch who don't seem like they would have been in the original Overwatch. For instance:

Widowmaker is an evil brainwashed assassin
Dva is very young (probably about as young as you can legally get away with)
Bastion is an Omnic

So, are these heroes supposed to have been part of Overwatch before it was shut down? Or, if not, who was in Overwatch originally? I assume Winston, Tracer, and Soldier 76, but what about the rest of them?

texts:
I live in a rural area, recently touched level 38 in Pokemon Go somehow.
My house is in the outer side of the main city , and our whole city has only 4 pokestops and 2 gyms, that too almost 2 Miles away from my home in the center of the city , so it's quite hard for me to get there everytime for gym battles, raids and pokestop items so, after reaching level 38 i want to increase the number of pokestop.
There is an open playground in our area which is accessible for the public and also very great spot for sports like,
Football training, Football Matches, Cricket Matches and others.
Great for exercising and yoga
Great spot for morning and evening walks, driving practicing too.
Features of the playground.

Always crowdy except noon and night time.
Nice for sports and others.
Very safe for pedestrians.
Always accessible as there is no boundary

But,the playground does not have any signboard , plaque , statue , unique art or something like that, but , it's sure that the playground is almost always crowdy.
So, is it eligible for a pokestop submission? , Thank You.
Edit:
As no Interesting bench or art exists except goal posts, will the photo of goal post make an eligible pokestop?

Get over it.
We're sorry this has created a divide between us.

When you are competing for the favor of city-states:

Get over it.
We're sorry this has created a divide between us.

When they become hostile and insult you:

You'll pay for this in time.
Very well.

When you bully a city state under their protection:

We'll leave them alone from now on.
Our affairs are none of your business.

Does your choice of response to these situations have any effect?

texts: How were text adventures meant to be played?

texts:
I have recently started playing Zork. I'm a big fan of graphic adventures from around '90, finished several of them on my own so I think I'm not particularly bad at them, but I'm having little luck with this one.

I think the problem is that I don't really have the right mindset. I'm going to elaborate somewhat to give you my impression of the game.

I get how I'm supposed to read everything on the screen carefully, especially since the descriptions are really short and seem to be dense with hints. I get how I'm supposed to draw a map while I move around and take notes of items I find and various points of interest. I get how I'm supposed to experiment with the command line and try commands and sentence structures that are not even listed in the manual.

This way I managed to map a fairly complicated maze, and also solve a few simple puzzles like descending into a shaft by

   tying a rope to the railing and climbing down on it.

What beats me is this. I looked up a hint which said, to get past Cyclops, I have to

   say the word 'Ulysses' to him, which makes him dash off in fear.

I'm familiar with Homer's Odyssey, but this would never have occured to me. Since I couldn't find any hints that pointed to this, and I'm generally making very slow progress if any, and even the whole point of the game has been kind of vague to me just judging by the story, I'm inclined to think It must be full of these kind of puzzles.

So, to finally turn my rant into a question (:
Do I have the wrong impression of the game? Or are these games just inherently a lot more difficult than graphic adventures of the nineties and I have to be more patient? Or is that Zork is just not the right game to start with (for it's already full of motifs a beginner like me doesn't know, or w/e reason..)?


texts: Missed Zoltan card from White Orchard scholar

texts: I somehow missed the Zoltan card from beating the scholar at White Orchard Inn, is there any way that I can get another opportunity at the card?


texts:
On a server I play on I went on a journey to get a panda. I breed 2 pandas and left one baby and one adult panda on a boat. I buried this boat in a 2x2x2 area underground. When I returned to get my pandas they had both disappeared and all that was left was a zombie in a boat holding bamboo. How did this happen? Did

someone steal my pandas
my pandas despawn
my pandas get killed by a mob
something else


texts: If I've sold cigarette cards can I still get a set?

texts: I've just meet the NPC who wants me to find sets of cigarette cards, however, I've already sold some to a fence. Will I still be able to find the cards sets or am I now out of luck since I've sold a few off?


texts:
I don't have Portal 2, yet for some reason, Steam has decided to give me a "Portal 2" inventory.

It happened right about the time the Steam Gift Pile stuff kicked off.  I went to check my inventory, and I noticed that I have a new, empty, "Portal 2" tab.

Why?


texts: Is it possible to build before the starting line in the editor?

texts:
I have been wondering if I can build blocks outside the squared area in Geometry Dash 2.1 update. In 1.9 this was possible by a bug with the tilted platform object.

Here's an image so you understand what I mean:

Yes, it's a screenshot from the old version of the editor, but the meaning is the same.

Is there any way or bug to do this in the 2.1 version?


texts: Is there something I need to do to get squid to spawn?

texts: I haven't seen a squid since about a week after the patch that added them. I have a "water wall" around my base, and I frequently scan the large "ocean" outside my base for movement, but no luck.


texts: In Season 2 do I play as Clementine, or someone else?

texts:
I recently finished playing The Walking Dead Season 1 (and the 400 Days DLC), and I'm probably going to buy Season 2 very soon. However the one thing I'm not sure about is who I'll be playing as. I'm also trying to avoid spoiling myself as much as possible.

Will I be playing as Clementine, or do you rotate through playable characters like in the 400 Days DLC? In the main game (Season 1) I'm pretty sure that it never let me play anyone aside besides Lee.


texts:
I have an old electric train that's been stuck for quite a while. During upgrading I upgraded the electric rail station to maglev while a train was in the depot. However, the train was never "stopped" in the depot. I switched the station back to electric -- but the train is still stuck in a netherland between the depot and the station. It won't go to the station, and it won't go back into the depot either. Here's a screen shot to give you an idea of how it looks.

I have no idea how to delete it. It loses me a decent sum each year. What can I do?


texts:
Early in the game you can get a special Sniper Gun: Red Ryder BB Gun

   it's a prise for a Leg Lamp brought to museum.

It does 1 damage and "Eye pull out" effect. Can't get what is it, doesn't seem to affect enemy much.


texts: Should I explore every dungeon and structure as I encounter them in my travels or will a quest eventually lead me to all locations?

texts:
I am sure that everyone who's played this game has been on their way to a distant location on foot or by horse and have encountered a cave, fort, or other structure along the way.  With me, I cannot help but explore all locations on the map as I encounter them, mainly because not doing so would just mean I need to mark the place in a notebook or something to remind me that I need to explore it later.  Otherwise, I have a "discovered" location on the map with no 100% sure way to know whether or not I've fully checked it out (things don't always show as cleared).

Is it possible that every location on the map will eventually be the target of a quest?  If so, you could ignore the random cave that you pass by since you will ultimately be directed back to it by a quest.

Extra credit:  If there were a mod out there that would indicate whether or not a location has been entered (as opposed to being discovered by simply walking in front of it) then that would address my issue.


texts:
I just tried to turn on my PS3 and for some reason when I turned it on, it automatically turns back off, I have tried to turn it on 4 times now and it is doing the same thing.

Note: while I was playing Black Ops 2, the map "Hijacked" was loading and it just completely froze while it was loading.


texts:
It seems that mouse DPI is getting pretty high these days. How much DPI do you really need?

Update: This question is targeted at gaming, by the way :) I'm interested to know what is noticeably different (and important) between 2000 and 5000 DPI when playing high speed games like Quake and SC2?


texts: Does the stack penalty only count on the same item?

texts:
Will using a thermal hardener and a kinetic hardener at the same time cause one of them to be penalized?

What if I use a thermal hardener, thermal resistance plating, and thermal energized plating?

How is the penalty calculated?


texts: Can I soul trap all creatures regardless of their level?

texts:
I know I need the proper gems to be able to trap a soul.

But is there a limit to which type/level of creature you can soul trap based on your own level or conjuration skill?


texts: Can anyone give me some advice on how to get the amulet to win a battle on row 8 with no skill points used? Which field to use?  Do you still use the YOL trap strategy?


texts: What's wrong with my /summon command? [1.12]

texts:
I'm trying to use this command:

/summon Item ~ ~2 ~ {Item:{id:388,Count:1,tag:{}}}

But the command block returns with "Unable to summon object".
What am I doing wrong? I'm using Minecraft version 1.12.


texts: Is there a 'push to talk' button on gamepad for GTA Online?

texts:
Is there a push-to-talk button for voicechat on gamepad in the PC port of GTA Online?

If not, is there a way to map the Xbox contoller scheme for this? (I am using PS3 controller and SCP Server.)

For now I use voice-activated + mute, but I prefer using push-to-talk so that my fellow gamers don't have to listen to me yell at my kids and wife.


texts: If the side that I played loses, will I still get the reward?

texts:
Playing an operation mission I sided with the Grineer, but seems after all Corpus are about to win.

Grineer are the invaders, the status is 1.7%

If at the end Grineer loses, will I still get the battle pay prize?
