Silly Polly Beast | Demo Playthrough [No Commentary] Leo K [Rogue] 2024-10-19 | Silly Polly Beast Narrative Exploration-Heavy Action Game / Top-Down ShooterLight Horror Elementsstore.steampowered.com/app/3261690/Silly_Polly_Beast_DemoPolly, an escapee from an orphanage who made a promise to her sister Alice, falls into the Underworld and is forced onto a quest to assassinate three demons in order to free her savior, an entity which doesn't seem terribly trustworthy.I really enjoyed this. From the moment you try it out, it immediately feels great to control, move around and fight in - the gun combat especially.Putting your hood on to increase Stealth / hide from enemies is a cool mechanic which cleverly alters the visuals of the entire world around you to reflect the subtle anxiety of walking past people and things you don't want to be noticed by. The game bleeds a ton of style and personality, your melee weapon is literally a skateboard with "STFU" on the bottom and your difficulty-level is represented by a teddy bear in varying states of wear-and-tear. The exploration and puzzle-solving draws upon the same part of my thinking that some of my favorite games do, albeit a little lighter and brisker which works well for the game Silly Polly Beast is. Your pistol regains ammo whenever you kill an enemy through any means, whether that's melee, the pistol / shotgun / a grenade / something else. This gives the already smooth and fluid combat a tactical feel where killing weak enemies can refill your ammo, letting you continue to damage stronger ones, for example. I'm looking forward to the full game. Definitely the best Angry Little Girl Simulator I've seen in a long time. I have a lot of friends, one or two in particular, who would really, really love this game. For a specific kind of person this might become one of their favorite experiences in the future, especially considering how good the gameplay is. 00:00 Intro00:30 Chapter 1: I Hate This City02:45 Put your hood on to become invisible06:32 The Underworld11:34 Good luck, little hunter15:16 Gun Combat21:46 Puzzle Rituals25:59 Demo Final Boss

(very messy) Fists vs Yetuga Boss | The First Berserker: Khazan Leo K [Rogue] 2024-10-11 | Will up a cleaner one later. This may be my GOTY 2025. You can check by unequipping your weapon then putting points into different Stats at a Blade Nexus without confirming the level-up, but Fists seem to derive no extra damage at all from raising any stat.It's unclear if there's any way currently available to increase their damage, but finishing theiir combo does more, and striking enemies in the back is another way to hit harder - both are universal system mechanics that apply to every weapon type unconditionally.
Impressions: QRD Spark N5 and PS5 Convert | Good Alternative To A Modded DualSense Leo K [Rogue] 2024-10-08 | The QRD Spark N5 is another anti stick-drift controller that uses Hall Effect sticks, but this one is in the PlayStation layout which is what I typically prefer. QRD sent this to me to give my impressions on, and while nothing can surpass my love for my DualSense like usual, I played on this controller comfortably. I tested both the controller itself and the USB adapter/converter that lets it be used wirelessly and play PS5 games. That means this can serve as an alternative to opening and modding your DualSense sticks yourself if you don't have the desire or means to do so, though it's a bit less versatile than a modded DualSense would be given the conditions for use. In these early days, the experience has been good with no real issues. Very light and easy to move sticks, and very firm, resistant paddles will be the main traits that make this controller feel different from others, so decide whether it's right for your hands based on that. For myself, I would usually lean toward more resistant sticks.QRD Spark N5: qrdgame.com/products/qrd-spark-n5-wireless-controller-for-ps4PS5 Converter: qrdgame.com/products/qrd-blackpill-ps5-wireless-adaptor-and-converterSpark N5 (Amazon): amazon.com/dp/B0D5LMPBS4 PS5 Converter (Amazon): amazon.com/dp/B0DD44BZGG0:00 Intro0:17 Unboxing1:26 Wireless - But Needs The Adapter/Converter2:25 Works on Mobile2:42 No Profile Management App3:06 PC Tests - Darksiders III, Code Vein5:02 PS5 Tests - First Descendant, AC Mirage5:36 Final Thoughts▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#QRDgame #QRDSparkN5
Impressions: GameSir G7 HE | Even Comfier Than Kaleid? Leo K [Rogue] 2024-09-16 | In my last video on the GameSir Kaleid, I brought up the G7 SE, one of the most-popular and most-owned Hall Effect/anti-stickdrift controllers on the market. After hearing me mention it, GameSir offered to send me what seems to be a variant of it, the G7 HE so I could talk about it too. It's another wired Xbox controller and I was skeptical if I would have that much to say about it since it seemed so similar to the Kaleid. It is pretty similar. It has a bit of difference, though, and it's something that changed my experience with it and made it so much more enjoyable to use: the shape of it just fits my hands a lot better than the Kaleid did, and the back-paddles seem to have a little more resistance, being harder to mispress or press by accident, which was the chief issue I had with the Kaleid - paddles that were too easy to click in due to how I often held that controller.I'll talk about a third-party PlayStation controller soon, since I've been curious how those are doing nowadays. In the meantime, enjoy the video. 0:00 Intro1:51 Notes on Connecting to PC2:38 Back Paddles: BETTER Here4:38 GameSir Nexus Software5:34 Conclusion: I Like The G7 HE BetterMusic: YGO Master Duel - Battle 1 Soul Hackers 2 - Side By Side DarknessGameSir G7 HE: https://www.gamesir.hk/products/gamesir-g7-he-xbox-controller▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#gamesir #gamesirkaleid

EVOTINCTION | Hack-and-Stealth Dark Sci-Fi Made With Passion Leo K [Rogue] 2024-09-13 | Thanks to Spikewave Games and Astrolabe Games for providing review access. Played on PC.Steam:store.steampowered.com/app/2005090/EVOTINCTIONPSN:store.playstation.com/en-us/concept/10006212EVOTINCTION is not a perfect game, but it has a soul you can see. The meeting of Watch_Dogs and Metal Gear at the mid-point brings to the player who gives it a chance an experience with reverence for the stealth genre, dark futurism and sci-fi horror where the only monster is the logical function of our own creation. Its love for Metal Gear Solid, stealth games, time-trial challenges, speedrunning, replayability, frightening cyberpunk worlds and dark electronic music shines through the mystery it sustains over a ten-hour playthrough full of intrigue and dread.A small number of technical issues and one or two frustrating late-game encounters mean it doesn't reach the status of legendary, but if you love, really love stealth games, satisfying level design, fun resource-management, or dark sci-fi as much as this dev team clearly does, there is definitely something here for you. 00:00 INTRO01:29 Technical02:24 Quality-of-Life (More Games Should Have These)05:13 PRESENTATION AND STORY05:43 Scientists Talk Like Scientists07:09 AI: An Inherently Unsettling Enemy07:45 An Atmospheric Soundtrack08:09 Anxiety, Unease, Dread10:23 Gameplay and Story's Intertwining11:46 Levels Are Visually Varied14:13 GAMEPLAY16:26 Level Design Is Good Across Two Layers17:09 Simulations/VR Missions: VERY MGS18:39 Upgrades and Skills19:05 Viruses and Elegant Gameplay Layering20:31 Spikewave Could Make a Great Survival Horror Game22:27 Great Level Design, Weaker Late-Game23:57 New Game+ Adds New Lore, Skills24:22 OUTRO | A Spirited Venture Into The Unknown#EVOTINCTION #SpikewaveGames #ChinaHeroProject

Preview: Mask of Darkness could be a great DLC for one of the best Metroidvanias ever made Leo K [Rogue] 2024-09-05 | Prince of Persia: The Lost CrownThe Mask of Darkness Story DLC (5 dollars or 5 euro on September 17)Gameplay Preview After finishing the base game with 100% completion on the highest difficulty, I've been really curious about this, so I'm pleased I had a chance to play some of it before release. The Mask of Darkness DLC for Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown shows some awesome potential. It maintains and even concentrates the satisfaction of the base game's movement gauntlets, while stripping players back to basics and weakening them progression-wise so staying alive and exploring every subsequent room feels like an accomplishment. While Parrying is more important than ever, difficulty and accessibility-options should let anyone get through the gauntlets provided here comfortably.My preview took me through The East Wing, which already has a few new mechanics and enemies, adding fresh ways to move through the world, engage with puzzles, and defeat your opposition.0:00 Mask of Darkness Releases Sep 170:17 Starting the DLC1:33 Movement Still Feels Amazing2:59 New Enemies4:55 Staying Alive is Tough (At First)5:45 Upgrades Are Really Important7:34 I'm Looking Forward to Mask of Darkness

Impressions: GameSir Kaleid | Hall Effect / Anti Stick-Drift Xbox Controller Leo K [Rogue] 2024-08-10 | GameSir, a brand that makes game controllers sent me the Kaleid wired Xbox controller free of charge to talk about it as I wish. It probably won't replace my DualSense as my daily driver because that's my favorite controller I've ever used, but it is quite good and GameSir have proven by now that they make good Hall Effect controllers. (You've honestly probably heard of them already.)With the emergence of the Nintendo Switch's JoyCons and the PS5's DualSense, stick drift quickly became one of modern gaming's boogeymen. If you're a regular player who plays a lot of games on controllers nowadays there's a very high chance you've experienced stick drift and know how much it sucks. Enter Hall Effect stick design, which eliminates the physical wear that leads to drift. I've heard a lot about this type of controller for a long time now, at least a year, so it's cool to get a chance to try it out.Music: YGO Master Duel - Battle 1 Soul Hackers 2 - Side By Side Darknesshttps://www.gamesir.hk/products/gamesir-kaleid-xbox-controller0:00 Imagine Never Having Stick Drift Again1:24 The Hall Effect3:06 Unboxing, Looks, Pressing Buttons4:22 Gameplay Experience, Impressions and Thoughts8:00 Final Thoughts9:20 ???▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#gamesir #gamesirkaleid
Umbra & Operator Stealth and Combat | Warframe (Rescue Missions) Leo K [Rogue] 2024-08-09 | Massive Spoilers for Second Dream, War Within, The Sacrifice. Play those before watching. If you haven't played them or don't plan to, this wouldn't really be cool for you to look at anyway since you won't understand what you're seeing. Not worth spoiling for yourself. Umbra is my favorite character in all of Warframe, narratively and in some ways even mechanically. The ways he's unique really sing to me and reach my heart. Going invisible on every finisher also reminds me a lot of Assassin's Cowl cloak-loops from Destiny 2, and it's kind of nice to have an equivalent in this game, especially tied to a character whose origins, lore and aesthetics are all so resonant with me.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#Warframe #Umbra

Translating Intent into Gameplay & The Assassins Creed | Classic AC Leo K [Rogue] 2024-06-23 | Excerpt from the upcoming Rogue's Chat with AnimusDrifter, where we talk about our thoughts on players being able to translate their intent into in-game actions, and how classic Assassin's Creed's more freeform systems adhered more closely to the backing philosophy of the player-character's faction. This ten-minute topic was something I wanted to have an easy way to link and reference in the future, and the full interview is three hours long so I wanted something to tide people over while I'm still only halfway done scrubbing through and editing it.

Iconoclasm Final Boss | Duo Legendary [Hunter, Titan] | Destiny 2: The Final Shape Leo K [Rogue] 2024-06-10 | Destiny 2: The Final Shape Mission: IconoclasmPrismatic Hunter Berserker (Strand Titan)This definitely FELT like one of the harder pieces of story content in the game so far, I think it's a lot tougher than Calus and Savathun ever were but your mileage may vary. Part of what contributes to that feeling and perception is the game's UI conveying that you have to loop its mechanic three times, but you don't. You do it twice, and the third time is basically a gimme. You can technically still die to getting swiped at by a stray add there, but it's very unlikely. On a first time playthrough though, wiping to the second Subjugator can be VIOLENTLY demotivating when you're not used to the fight since you reasonably ASSUME you still have a whole third phase to do and it just feels like it's way too much. Sunshot was nerfed in Final Shape, but it's still very strong and comfortably usable in high-difficulty content, in my experience. On Prismatic Hunter, the Scorch effect that it leaves on enemies near the slain one can also help you proc the invisibility from Stylish Executioner, since Stylish Executioner now activates upon killing an enemy with ANY elemental-debuff/status on them.Subjugators take more damage from THEIR damage-type. Shooting Stasis ones with Stasis, or Strand ones with Strand will drain their HP much faster. That's why I run mostly Stasis Abilities on my Prismatic Hunter, as well as swapping weapons to The Call, a Strand Rocket Sidearm which hits VERY hard, after we kill the first one. Much like Tormentors, Subjugators are very susceptible to repeated, heavy Precision-damage on their critspots, so I just pulled whatever random Stasis Machinegun I had lying around and used that.My duo partner is running her Titan's Strand monosubclass because it's currently much stronger for burst-damage and fast boss-shred than anything Prismatic Titan has access to. Since Berserker is a very high-damage, up-close powerhouse, I swap to the No Hesitation autorifle in phase two once the Strand Subjugator spawns, to enable riskier play, and because there are more ways to get killed in that part of the fight. No Hesitation's bullets damage enemies, but heal allies. It's the first ever Support Frame weapon in the game. You can see that in action many times, but particularly when she uses her Super at the end to take down the Strand Subjugator, I'm pelting her with heal bullets for the beginning of that to make sure she gets to the enemy safely. When her HP seems stable, I switch to The Call to try to help empty the enemy's health faster so it can die before her Super is over. Second phase can also leave players Suspended and hanging helplessly in the air, which is a very easy way to get killed on Legendary. No Hesitation makes it much easier to survive those situations in a game where most other sources of healing are dependent on you killing enemies to activate them -- something you're probably not going to do while Suspended.Priestess's Channel:@kyuukitsu ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#Destiny2
Hades II | Chronos - Splash Daggers (Poseidon) Leo K [Rogue] 2024-06-03 | Hades II [Early Access, PC]I think Poseidon is probably the strongest boon-path in the game at the moment. He's VERY easy to fight with, he has a lot of damage-supplementing effects, a lot of crowd-control/AoE which becomes more important the deeper into a run you get, and he also tends to have 'rich-get-richer' style snowballing mechanics. If a run starts out well for you (like if you begin with his keepsake) you can get some pretty fun power on deck by the time you hit the final boss. I believe this was my first Chronos clear, including the first time I saw his Phase 2, so I was pretty surprised I finished Phase 2 despite never having fought it before. I feel in some ways, Phase 2 is probably easier than Phase 1 since he has patterns that, to my brain, were a little more readable. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Hades II | Cerberus - Scorch Daggers (Hestia) Leo K [Rogue] 2024-06-03 | Hades II [Early Access, PC] Cerberus Boss Fight Scorch Daggers, empowered/boon'd by Hestia. I think this was my first Cerberus clear, so I recorded it for posterity and because I always wanted to make Scorch work for me. I think that by itself, it doesn't do all that much, but with repeated boons and investment over the course of a run, Scorch's secondary/supplementary effects really start to add up. Fun times.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Rogue Prince of Persia | This Wallrun MIGHT Jump Into Greatness One Day Leo K [Rogue] 2024-05-27 | The Rogue Prince of Persia leaps onto Steam today, May 27th in Early Access. It's an action roguelike made by those who worked on Dead Cells, and as such there are some similarities. While movement and music are a joy to experience no matter how much I play and listen, I think the game's lack of meaningful meta-progression to chew on will leave many roguelike players walking away and returning to the likes of Hades, and more traditional Prince of Persia fans will probably end up preferring the recent Lost Crown with its more persistent play-structure and occasional game updates. Even so, The Rogue Prince of Persia game has great potential and I'm looking forward to seeing how it evolves, and how the devs act on these early rounds of feedback, in the future. store.steampowered.com/app/2717880/The_Rogue_Prince_of_PersiaThanks to Ubisoft for providing review code for these first impressions / early access review.00:00 Intro00:49 Music is Amazing01:24 Sick Movement is Prince of Persia's Core02:33 Traversal Rooms are SO COOL04:53 Combat: Okay, A Bit Simple09:43 Medallions12:03 Currency and Progression13:04 Lacking/Weak Meta-Progression14:10 Characters and Storytelling15:35 The Mind-Map: Your Reason to Vary Routes16:59 Bosses17:34 A Good Start, But Needs Some More19:04 Outro▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#RoguePrinceOfPersia #PrinceOfPersia #EarlyAccess

Ghost of Tsushima Legends | Crossplay Clips [PS4 to PC] Leo K [Rogue] 2024-05-17 | Ghost of Tsushima released on Steam today, and it came with the ability for PS4, PS5 and PC to play together. It took some doing to figure out how to make it work, likely because as the game itself admits, it's a feature in BETA, but a PlayStation player Inviting a PC player who has their PSN Invites list open usually works fine. (I couldn't seem to invite PS4/PS5 from PC even when both of us appeared Online.) These are a few clips from the Legends co-op mode, which reuses the base game's mechanics and adds a few more, in addition to its own progression system. Legends is themed after horror storytelling, with a character from Jin's journey in the base Ghost of Tsushima game narrating embellished tales around what the Ghost really was. Stealth is emphasized in Legends, and especially on higher difficulties, finding ways to finish missions with minimal time spent in combat is typically very strong.You could honestly think of it as a whole second game you get with Ghost of Tsushima for free, which at the time when it first launched on PS4 really blew people away. It's not monetized in any way, there's no real missable live-service FOMO or the like, it's just a great game with increasing challenges, some varied modes, a creative PvPvE mode reminiscent of Destiny's Gambit, and even a Raid if you want one. While Legends is designed to be co-op, you can solo a ton of it, which I did back on PS4.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#GhostOfTsushima #GhostOfTsushimaPC #Crossplay

Ereban: Shadow Legacy | salvation from stealth game starvation Leo K [Rogue] 2024-04-10 | Review copy provided by the developers.Ereban: Shadow Legacy launches today (April 10, 2024) on Steam, an indie stealth game developed and self-published by Baby Robot Games -- good friends and neighbors of Lince Works, the studio which brought us Aragami 1 and 2. As Ayana, the last of the Ereban, we get to silently flow through a doomed, dark sci-fi world with the power of the shadows at our command, expressed most impressively by the Shadow Merge mechanic, letting her become condensed darkness, sliding along floors and even walls completely unseen. I really enjoyed this game, and in this video I'll talk about some of the parts I found cool.

The Final Vision | LV200 Lucilius - Lancelot POV [Granblue Fantasy Relink] Leo K [Rogue] 2024-03-17 | Granblue Fantasy Relink [PC]The Final Vision / LV200 Lucilius 00:00 Intro00:15 Gameplay10:03 GearThe Lucilius Raid recently released in Granblue Fantasy Relink and this is one of the runs that went relatively smoothly. No Flight over Fight Sigil to make dodging easier, just doing my best responding to attacks without it. I accidentally had Glaciate slotted in which doesn't do anything in this fight, so one of my skill slots was completely unusable. Lucilius, like Vulkan Bolla, is a boss you should never take Glaciate into because he's completely CC-immune which would normally free a slot for another damage skill or Mirror Image. He can be afflicted with stat-reducing debuffs like DEF Down and ATK Down, but control-debuffs have no effect on him or his swords.War Elemental works on Lucilius and you do get a damage-boost from it. In one test (different Sigil setup):Normal Attack capped at 21754 without WE. Normal Attack capped at 26104 with WE.This lines up with what we know War Elemental to do when working. Sigils at the end because people will always ask. My build isn't final. I don't mod or cheat Sigils in, which means a lot of better options I would want, I simply don't have in my Inventory yet. I play quite a lot, so I just haven't gotten as lucky as some other players, which is the nature of an ARPG with random drops. No commentary on this one in the video itself because Sandalphon and Lucilius speak to the party and each other and I don't want to obscure the subtitles. Vane's party-invuln obviously makes some mechanics free. Note that you get some Invulnerability that stays "sticky" on your character for a few seconds even after leaving the bubble, which some players might not notice. There are already some good guides on Lucilius and his moveset on YouTube, I'll link two of them here.youtube.com/watch?v=wuUoGh1DvdUyoutube.com/watch?v=53QFVSS6ay8
MOONBREAKER | LV140 Pyet-A | How To BENEFIT From SUPPORTS in Endgame | Granblue Fantasy Relink Leo K [Rogue] 2024-03-05 | Granblue Fantasy Relink [PC] The Automagod Strikes Back [LV140] Lancelot POV, Duo with Cagliostro: youtube.com/@LittleSkyfarerMoonbreaker Title: - No Player is Downed- No Player Uses An Item- Clear In Under 10mins00:00 Intro05:40 Lancelot Anti-Air Tech vs Bodyslam AoEsSupport players in Relink feel undervalued right now for a few crucial reasons. One is that Potion Hoarder is too powerful, available and easy to use by anyone (usually everyone) on a team. Another is that overall player power is incredibly high, so damage buffs often don't make a big impact on a fight, and defense buffs likewise aren't really the difference between whether we live or die -- in part affected by Potion Hoarder as well. The last one that I think all roles can relate to universally is that players generally have too much knowledge of every fight in the game, which combined with the previous factors mean that mistakes will rarely be made.Support doesn't JUST mean Healing, but this is one area that Relink's current endgame manages to make feel _especially_ superfluous, which is disheartening for players who resonate with the role and had a wish to enjoy it more meaningfully. Apart from Healing, managing enemy aggro/hostility/enmity, resisting damage and giving damage-resistance to the team, granting offensive buffs, dispelling positive effects from enemies, and crowd-controlling enemies to grant a team damage uptime or reduce presence of dangerous mechanics/AoEs, are some other expressions of the role. So when IS Support useful? Any time the playerbase as a whole is contending with a new fight for which we don't yet have much established knowledge. For example, the upcoming Lucilius raid on March 14th will feel more comfortable to learn and lab out if a team brings in a healer or tank that can make staying alive easier. It's tempting to go for max damage right away in order to survive DPS checks, but you will get no value out of that if you're dying so often and seeing that Critical Gauge so much, that you simply wipe before you even reach a single one of those checks. Add damage once you know you need it, until you do, ways to stay alive benefit you more. A Siegfried or Djeeta/Gran giving everyone damage-resist and Defense suddenly becomes much more important in a situation where players are dying a lot.Another time Healing is useful is when you're hunting for the two challenge-titles associated with Proto Bahamut and Pyet-A: Godsbane and Moonbreaker. These titles forbid players from accessing an otherwise extremely abusable tool, Potions. At the same time, they mandate that while avoiding potion-use, players also avoid reaching 0HP and being downed. And finally, the fight must be cleared in under ten minutes, which means slow, overly-passive strategies are not viable. Under these conditions, the on-demand healing cooldowns of characters like Cagliostro, Io, Rosetta, Ferry and the like gain a lot of value -- especially Cagliostro's powerful burst healing. Achieving these titles with random matchmaking is close to impossible both because most players don't even know they exist, and those that do don't really care. Introducing more meaningful decisions around whether to use or not use Potion Hoarder is going to be very difficult, but the Sigil is generally damaging to the game, as a reasonably-leveled one lets players just ignore many mechanics an absurd number of times in a single fight. A stop-gap, bandaid solution can be a Sigil that grants players a parallel source of Damage Cap, but which completely disables their potions. It fits with the kind of tradeoffs Sigils like Glass Cannon, Flight over Fight and Life on the Line already ask players to make.A future update introducing an additional, higher difficulty tier of Quests which disables Potions would be another way to approach it, and it would also open an extra slot in people's builds which can go toward something else, albeit minor.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#GranblueFantasyRelink #Relink #Lancelot Fogblade Lancelot

Bahamut Versa (Proud) | Lancelot SOLO NO DAMAGE | Granblue Fantasy Relink Leo K [Rogue] 2024-02-20 | Granblue Fantasy Relink [PC]Played with DualSense Controller The Final Report / Bahamut Versa [Proud Difficulty]Lancelot Solo, No CPUs, No DamageSkills: Blade Impulse, Turbulenz, Southern Cross, Blau Dolch Gear: Terminus Weapon 99, and the usual stuff Lancelots typically build (War Elemental, Damage Cap, Cascade, etc. I only have 2 Supplementary Damage V Sigils though.) A little messy. There are moments where Versa does his slam and shockwave where I lose track of him for a bit. Probably best to briefly lock on then lock off to quickly point your camera at him. (I do this trick quite a bit, actually.) I do block a Darkflame-inflicting attack. It doesn't do any damage to me, but you can't guard status effects.Versa's size and how featureless this arena is, means depth-perception is actually pretty rough here. Because of this, Locking On PURELY so I can hold Forward and reliably move toward the boss is something I do a few times, because it lets me gap-close and cross space and KNOW FOR SURE that I'm moving as close as possible, as fast and linearly as possible. I recommend using this trick even in your normal fights against him, whether with NPCs or co-op online.There are many moments where Versa becomes unhittable. Doing a Lancelot Combo Finisher just before those moments is pretty good. It also seems pretty good to do Finishers ONLY IF you have another Skill ready to use right after, that has the "flows into an Attack Combo" property, since that lets you do good burst damage and maintain combo-flow without having to "restart" your combo (which would be a big damage-loss). ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#granbluefantasyrelink #lancelot #granbluefantasy
Bahamut Versa (Proud) Duo No Damage - Lancelot, Cagliostro | Granblue Fantasy Relink Leo K [Rogue] 2024-02-15 | Played with @GBF_Relink_Guides (Check out her channel, some useful mindsets that helped me understand the game a little more.) Bahamut Versa (Proud Difficulty) Duo No Damage. I Guard, Mirror Image, Jump, Dodge and Twin Blade Dance through attacks, to showcase various options Lancelot has for avoiding damage in this fight. I quite dislike how Versa, along with a few other bosses, tends to make me "slide off" of him and have to get back in. It's not so bad in some cases, but in others it takes me a second to recognize that I'm spaced out too far and when it does happen it feels awful to just be swinging at air for a moment.The reason it affects characters like Lancelot and Charlotta uniquely horribly is that their combo is technically 'infinite,' and they don't have natural ends to their attack-flow that would then be an intuitive time to dodge-cancel back into range; unlike most characters who have combos with pre-defined enders. Not the end of the world, but annoying, something to improve at for sure.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#GranblueFantasy #NoDamage
EASILY SEE Youre At Damage Cap | Granblue Fantasy Relink Leo K [Rogue] 2024-02-10 | Check Pinned for corrections and discussions.Seeing a yellow glowing 'slash-through' on your damage number means that attack is hitting its damage-cap. Seeing the 'body' or 'fill-text' of the number be a bold, orangey-yellow means you're hitting with Elemental Advantage, either by attacking a monster your character's Element is strong toward (Captain hitting Quakadile) or using the War Elemental Sigil, which makes ALL attacks COUNT as ElemAdv. Seeing two !! means the attack has Crit.If you have more advice on how to think about or mentally approach increasing damage even after hitting the DMG Cap limit of Trait Level 65, other than Supplementary Damage, War Elemental, Glass Cannon and Catastrophe from Terminus Weapons, let me know! I'm still learning how this game works and it's always way more fun to truly Understand than to just follow a build, I feel.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#GranblueFantasyRelink #GranblueFantasy #Guide Fogblade Lancelot
GODSBANE | LV150 Proto Bahamut | Why Lancelots Strong in Endgame Teams [Granblue Fantasy Relink] Leo K [Rogue] 2024-02-09 | Granblue Fantasy Relink [PC] The Tale of Bahamut's Rage [LV150] Lancelot POV Godsbane Title: No Player is Downed, No Player Uses An Item, Team Clears In Under 10minsSome hopefully useful information in here, things I would personally want to know if I was just reaching endgame now. Not a build video, a mindset / approach / understanding video. Builds you can find if you simply have the will to look, something like this is naturally going to get clicked less, but it's also just more rare. Mind, I'm still learning myself, these are just fun or interesting tricks I've picked up while one-tricking this character in team environments. I can already tell we can take him so much deeper. Teams are interesting to play in because they provide a very extreme or swing-y experience. Human players are typically stronger than AI and definitely stronger than if you were to play solo, but they're also more unpredictable, they have the capacity to both succeed and fail gloriously. Lancelot is one of the characters who's really good at adapting to the unexpected. He has very fast, available movement for crossing space to pick up a revive, interact with a mechanic another player is struggling with, or capitalize on an opportunity another skilled player has created.He can give himself Supplementary Damage (like several other characters) which doesn't interact with Damage Cap so it's just a buff you can always rely on, he can Freeze/inflict Glaciate on a boss and extend DPS windows for improved uptime across his entire team, which is even stronger if their builds are good individually. Freezing a boss, this too gives your team damage in a way that doesn't interact with Damage-Cap; extra Time to hit the boss safely. Let's say you're running someone else who grants actual Damage Buffs. Well, at endgame many players in the current game-state are coming into a fight already Damage-Capped. Buffing them doesn't do anything, they'll hit for a number pre-buff, and hit for the same number post-buff. But Lancelot giving them time and safety? Well, that's more attacks going into the boss, that's skipping Overdrives, that's re-Stunning or re-Breaking. That's providing a very COMFORTABLE gameplay environment for your team. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#GranblueFantasyRelink #Relink #Lancelot Fogblade Lancelot

The Final Report | LV120 Bahamut Versa - Lancelot POV [Granblue Fantasy Relink] Leo K [Rogue] 2024-02-05 | Granblue Fantasy Relink [PC]The Final Report / LV120 Bahamut VersaLV100 Lancelot POV I like rogues.Skills Slotted: Blade Impulse, Turbulenz, Kaltzwinger, Blauer DolchLV125 Stunner Weapon with Dread Imbuement Forgot to show Sigils but I'm bad at buildcrafting so it's Attack, CritRate CritDamage, Linked Together, Tyranny, Exploiter, Improved Dodge and a few more I don't remember. Not captioned but I misuse cooldowns a few times because I'm unfamiliar with the fight. Self-Buffing and getting no damage uptime after, whiffing Turbulenz multiple times, failing to ID opportunities for Kaltzwinger. That one is ESPECIALLY bad because it's the best party-utility Lancelot has and the best CC I know of in the entire game. (I'm ignorant of many characters though, this game just came out, let me know if there are other strong ones.)I recorded this purely to VOD-review my decision-making and see what hits/downs me, what I can improve on, it wasn't going to be uploaded at first. Since this game is so new I decided to put it up just in case another player can tell me something helpful. I have some amount of experience, but I do consider myself new to team-based endgame across gaming, especially RPGs which is a genre I'm quite weak at overall. Still, Relink has come to me at a time where I'm very grateful for having something to focus on, even as it reminds me of what I'm missing in the same breath. Either way. Fantastic game. I feel like the players it's really made for, will love this game a ton. It's a "if it's for you, it's REALLY for you" thing.This fight was fun, I felt meaningfully challenged for the first time in the game, looking forward to seeing what else Proud difficulty has waiting.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬◆ Twitch: http://twitch.tv/LeoKRogue◆ Twitter: http://twitter.com/LeoKRogue◆ PayPal: http://paypal.me/LeoKRogue◆ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/leokrogue▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬#GranblueFantasyRelink #GranblueFantasy #Lancelot Fogblade Lancelot
