Im annoyed at the fact he cant design quests, the "go here and kill things to progress the plot" design works fine before Depot A but then it turns out a large portion of the game is just gonna go that way and all the lore and story developments dont matter because they have a very unsatisfying resolution.
You take that away and all you have is build autism to beat Dominating.
>>730544553
High focus Psi or pure Psi builds are some of the strongest in the game, the average person who tries this game is just too retarded to even figure how to get out of Depot A, let alone play Dom or put together a build without copying someone else's homework from the forums.

The core game isn't to bad without a guide, you just pick your dump stat for damage and your dump stat for defense (con/agility) and generally stick to 1 main weapon type. The final area is actually aids and you can easily softlock yourself without a guide. personally I would just skip it and go do the DLC stuff instead.

It used to not be like that and you could actually make use of 10-12 spells and had reasons to use most of them so you weren't stuck spamming 1 damage spell and 1 utility spell.
>>
>>730550786
The ammo wasn't even that bad, it was purposely capping damage and increasing cost per spell if you dared to consider using more than one school of magic and straight up not allowed more than 4 ever. Literally no fun allowed dev, I have zero interest in the sequel because I know they're going to make it shit on purpose.

been interested in Underrail for a while but ngl everything about actually playing the game sounds like a fucking drag, and i'm saying that as someone who regularly puts 100-120 hours into RPGs.
>>
>>730555408
Eh, it's fun if you like trpgs that require a bit more thought and strategy. Unfortunately the intro is a bit of a drag as it plays out mostly the same for every kind of build because you don't have enough points in anything for it to matter. Once you get to the part where the world opens up it becomes a lot more fun. I'd say give a pirate, see if it grabs you in 5 or so hours and drop it if it doesn't.

They are better if you need to quickly get rid of a group of enemies with low mechanical resistance and arent playing a character with low strength.

>>730560196
>every build is playable
this is only true in the most technical sense that with enough retrying you'll get lucky and every hit from the enemy will miss. You're basically not allowed to spec into multiple weapon types because the damage split makes the game so much harder than it needs to be. Even something simple like having multiple types of melee weapons or multiple types of guns doesn't work well because feats encourage you to stick to one weapon type and again, you just end up with worse damage output if you try to split your focus.

It's really unfortunate that swords are just worse than knives. People make them work but it doesn't seem like a particularly fun build
>>730564223
I played a crossbow trapper build before and cleared everything through expedition without needing to keep reloading or spec into crit maxing. you just have to plan your build and pick useful feats. Also don't be one of those psycho's playing 3 CON no AGL, your life will be living hell. In my experience, 5 CON with decent armor is enough to keep you from having to smash the reload button.

I have it somewhere around as well but several years later I don't feel like replaying at all. I'd give it another go if Expedition didn't require the very update that locked psi into narrower builds or hybrids.
>>
>>730543478
The psi nerf improved the game. Before the nerf there was like 1.5 psi builds that just used all psi skills because if you can be an omnipotent versalist right out of SGS why wouldn't you? Now there's actually options to specialize in specific psi skills while still in the late game being able to achieve that highly versatile playstyle if you build for it.

>>730543720
This is the actual real answer. Some of the worst spite nerfing just because it's a popular strategy regardless of how ruining some feature fucks the entire game in some way.

> Is this one of those games where if your build isn't absolutely optimal you're just worthless at everything?
Here's a brain dead simple way to play. Pick your preferred way to do damage, be it melee, magic or guns. Pick a specific sub type and focus 90% of your damage to be that. Whatever stat increases your damage you should be putting the max points possible into that almost every level. Pick your choice of defense health or dodging (CON/AGL) put a decent amount of points in that. You don't need to max this as armor can make up for it. You can't be good at everything so pick a few things you only want some points in and focus on some key non-combat skills you'd want to prioritize. Hacking/lockpicking are really useful and I always recommend those. Stealth, traps, persuasion and mercantile are also good, but not essential. Crafting is kind of all or nothing. You either put the bare minimum for health items and not much else or you pump up mechanics and electronics a lot so you can make good energy shields. Again, not essential.
>Do you recommend normal EXP or the one where you get EXP for finding oddities?
Some "people" including styg will insist that oddity is the correct way to play, but in my experience that's just not true. Oddity has a functionally random leveling curve, you find oddities or you don't and you have a limited amount of control with leveling. Oddity will have you level quickly in the early game and scrounging enemy corpses in the late game so you can actually get the last few levels, not very fun. Classic you level by killing things and you spend 99% of your game time killing things. Classic gives you a solid leveling curve where you hit max level at about the 70-80% completion mark, so you never feel that weak or overleveled unless you go out of your way to grind, which is unnecessary.

Nope. You literally can't beat the game with non combat character. You are also in shit If you try to play throwing knives only character. If I could, id make mutagen puzzle kill tchort completely, not just weaken him.
>>
>>730553660
Deep Caverns is possible to do if you're capable of getting there. But you'll probably spend an entire playthrough's worth of hours savescumming to clear it. I honestly think with the absolute shit way my low level character was set up (level 18 with no real "build" randomly putting stats anywhere with no direction, low ammo after fighting faceless with the Tchort cult, and oddity exp mode) I can go into 99% of saves and clear it. It easily took me like 25 hours though 11 of which were actual successful attempts with the rest savescumming.
>>730567781
Oddity is way more fun and encourages going out of your way for loot. I wish other RPGs would adopt it en masse instead of classic leveling.
>>
>>730572376
Didn't see this post. If you've got a non-combat character you can do Mutagen Puzzle, stealth past the Tchortlings to blow up all 4 tanks with Dynamite and stealth your way to Tchort and keep savescumming until all of your throwables actually hit him. That's basically what I did >>730574581

You could play Dominating and have your build fall off at the 8h mark.
Get ready to spend the entirety of the game placing traps, caltrops, and gas grenades for every single fucking encounter with more than two enemies.

it's ok but the difficulty spikes 4 hours in when you're hit with frustrating control point takeovers in your secured countries because the AI gets a cheaty "steal control points" spell that doesn't care about how secured the country is, and the only counter to it is to know they can do this before even playing the game and pursue an immediate research strategy + be hyper aggressive to the aliens both of which will take 2-3 in-game years at a minimum to take off and work, and neither of which will actually make your control points secure, it just extends how long it'll take before the cheat spells start working again

aside from the frustration of such a retarded game mechanic that literally requires meta knowledge to counter, it's ok, not amazing or great, a little better than mediocre. I'd personally put it somewhere in the 7/10 range.

there's more long term difficulty spikes but they're not nearly as frustrating, like you can only know which spaceship drives are noob traps with meta knowledge of the game, but at least in that case the problem is just wasting 10 years of research rather than an annoying whack-a-mole game with enemy councillors you can never actually wipe out.
>>
>>730567781
Pay attention to the tutorial (especially related to defenses) and just go in blind, the game is not that hard assuming you play on default difficulty. There are definitely some tough difficulty spikes here and there but I'd almost say the game gets easier the longer you play it. The only stuff I'd look up on the wiki is anything related to crafting.

I got scammed into buying this game by one of the devs persistent shill threads he keeps posting here

It was 100% a waste of money. I was expecting something like x-com and I got something more like fallout 2 with combat that was somehow more boring despite adding complexity, while the writing and plot and lore of the world was just straight up trash. I think I reached some underground mineshaft maze before realizing I was just going through the motions and the game was never going to get more fun or interesting.

dev and his dicksuckers love saying "skill issue" to every complaint too, including mine which were "this game and its lore is boring"
I'll always trash this game if only because of the way they respond to people

At no point did I say anything about team tactics, when I referred to xcom it was about its tactical complexity contrasted to typical crpgs like fallout

>>730575965
X-com's complexity is derived almost entirely from coordinating a squad. What were you expecting, destructible environments? Different points of entry, chokepoints and paths laden with traps are already featured.
>>
>>730576472
You are creating in your head issues and problems I have not once mentioned or talked about.

My problem with underrail is purely that it's boring, it has decent combat complexity, but somehow that didn't translate into the combat actually being FUN, whereas fallout 2, which isn't nearly complex, is actually fun to play - both the combat, and the questlines

I can't quantify fun any further than I had the game figured out within the first 10-20 hours of playing and it just never got more interesting, in fact it became a boring slog where I felt like I was just wasting my time to see where the story went. I can't even remember anything about the story now; It's a bland and soulless setting with formulaic quests and factions and unsatisfying combat.

Psi is not "unplayable", it was dumbed down and turned into a single flowchart spam
Before the "rework" you could approach psi as a puzzle. Individual powers were weak but you could combine all of them and use them depending on the situation. Tranquility builds were by far the most fun way to play the game. This isn't possible anymore and all weaker spells are now completely useless and never going to be utilized by anyone.

Maybe not quite on the same level, but the way Nintendo would obsessively squash harmless advantageous bugs (especially resource duplication) for like four each after BotW and TotK released was weird.

Old psi was beginner friendly in the best way. At any point you will be able to pull of a win as long as you pick your spells right. This was a good thing. There is nothing wrong with some playstyles being more lenient. Now a pure psi can easily go into an encounter with a loadout that has no possible way to win. This won't be an issue for an experienced player who already knows what waits behind every corner. But it forces savescum on new players who don't. So for the experienced player psi has only got stronger, but to the beginners it encourages absolutely degenerate playstyle.

Ammo, components, buying all of the workbenches for your house. Jet skis as well. Its also not just about the money but also getting certain components to appear. Getting chem-pistol parts can be a complete bitch because of the way vendor resets work.

NTA and havent played in like a year, but chem pistol builds are/were the quintessential example of a build you would basically always do more with by just switching to anything else that uses similar skills and attributes.
>>
>>730582054
They're literally good against everything and include great effects, like stun, fire/fear and acid blob (basically a snare + death sentence). The early game it's a bit rough (unless you luck into crafting an incendiary one, then Depot A is a joke) but that's all. It has been consistently one of the top builds during all of UR history, also a favorite of Stygger, so it never gets nerfs.

They're pretty fun but pistols are such a stat dump since you do need that precision, you do need that dex, and you do need a bunch of int for chem/plasma builds. This leaves you with arse agiliy/con and just becomes another glass cannon build.

Then why do devs themselves talk about red-herrings and newbie traps? Only the most touch-starved grognard thinks that shit should remain in games. Your choices should matter, and if they don't then the game is just for masochists who don't value their time. Retroactively cockblocking some meta-powergamer's build is little different than changing the plot of an ongoing series because someone in the audience guessed the outcome and the author can't handle such a crippling blow to their ego.

>Every build is playable
Haha, no, maybe on Hard and below and maybe if you hyperfocus on only one weapon while spamming caltrops and all possible flavour of 'nades because that's the universal glue that keeps every "build" from falling apart.
On Dominating? Only the most minmaxed, caltrops+grenade assisted "builds" can make it, and these builds do not include things like throwing knives builds and the likes.
I also hope you really like reloading because even that maxed out 95% chance to hit means a single missed hit makes you lose a fight.

There's a reason you didn't dare nerf bear traps even with the nerf to warcrimes, because when you'll do (You'll do it at some point, I just know it) everything will fall apart at the seams because Underrail is a poorly designed piece of shit.

False.

Kaldaien is a massive schizo and made his mods crash on detecting Denuvo cracks. I think he did a 180 and was suddenly anti-Denuvo. Just schizo things.

Difficulty is only difficult if it's unenjoyable and underrail is fun so despite being difficult on paper it's not really that difficult. I appricate the versatility of combat, how you can weave so many different weapons and traps and abilities in a build to make something work. And I just don't know how anyone can say the setting is bland with a straight face, underrail rightly has a reputation as the best crpg combat but I would also put the setting and background up there as some of the best in the genre too. The stories and quests are more questionable, but generally passable with some outsanding stuff now and then. It's just a good game.

Not my point.
The point is stygger """"balancing"""" the game around absolute edge cases cooked up by autistic min-maxers, which overall is a race to the bottom for normal players who don't autistically min-max.
I've stopped posting my dominating webms because I fear he will fuck over my builds.
I know he or his discord trooners lurk in these places and when he sees somebody beating his dominating bosses in one turn he will go in there and start nerfing.

Okay? I think Dom is frankly a fucking joke and I guess I'm part of the discord trannies you mention since I'm one of the occulites Anon, but nobody is snitching shit to Styg, they frankly think hes a bit of an idiot sometimes. The guy who got nerfed with the immortal stuff and the like didn't like it at all to get nerfed, and the real fag is Eidein.

>its hard to complain about this when he has stated repeatedly the game is meant for Normal.
Nah fuck off with this hypocritical pseudoapologetic bullshit nobody buys, if the game was actually meant for Normal difficulty he wouldn't lock content to Dominating only, if the game was actually meant for normal difficulty Dominating wouldn't exist at all and it would have received even more health bloat modifiers when everyone and their mother was complaining about the bloat for years.
Truth is Styg is a petty asshole with a massively inflated ego, and a poor game designer, remember that in all these years he STILL didn't fix tons of questlines that end abruptly like Gorky's but found all the time in the world to add even more bloat to an already massively bloated game AND made sure to eliminate any and all build possibilities that doesn't make the game play like a russian roulette simulator.
You try to spin Underrail as this deep game that requires to be at a certain "level" to beat when everyone and their mother knows it's a broken mess where bear traps, caltrops and grenades are the actual bread and butter of every single "build", which consists of picking a weapon, learning the ideal range for initiating an unbroken alpha strike chain and avoid any and all interactions with enemies because the moment a single enemy in your level range gets a turn it's just throwing a dice for a reload.

Dude, he put a 100% health mod and a grand total of 2 extra things in Dom. If you think a modifier and two frankly shitty "boss fights" means the game is meant for it when he just knows that dipshits for some reason love the Dominating suffering, then I don't really know what to tell you except skill issue because it very much isn't even really tested by the devs, they play Normal and Hard.

First Underrail patch? Probably the most divisive patch was the psi "nerf" that didn't nerf anything, actually buffed hybrid builds (which Styg allegedly hates) and made psi play more tedious and less rewarding with innervating and the psi reserve.
>>
>>730600407
>Dude, he put a 100% health mod and a grand total of 2 extra things in Dom
And systematically nerfed the majority of things that work on Dominating for an entire decade, while shitposting ironically about "suffering" and tedium being the core identity of Underrail and his game design philosophy.
Again, your weak, pathetic dicksucking has no ground to stand on as Styg systematically fucks over ANYTHING that specifically makes Dominating easier, because at the end of the day that's what Styg wants you to play, if he actually totally didn't care about it as you claim then he wouldn't have played the pettiest game of cat and mouse for over a decade where he systematically and hysterically checks whoever comes up with a functional build for Dominating and then nerfs it to the ground so everything sucks ass and the entire difficulty mode bottlenecks you even harder into bear trap+caltrops+nade spam with some added wishful thinking of your choice on the side.
Nothing about this is a skill issue on anyone but Styg's part since he's unable to design an actual good game and he's so petty and vindictive about it he's been actively seething and punishing people for a decade because they're not having fun in the "right" way.

Thats Dominating. Its meant to be the ridiculous ever increasing challenge that puts you to the test. The whole point is that it's hard especially as he adds in additional means of power like LMGs Minigund and Rocket Launchers and improved exp rates for inteligence and buffs perks to make shit hard. If Dom stops being Dom levels hard, its not Dom, its not what people want it to be.

Styg also buffed the fuck out of a lot of shit. Energy knives are full insane mode now, int is amazing, rocket launchers are pretty damn good, the pistol rework cleans house, Chem pistols are still nuts alongside SMGs and Machineguns in general, grenade launchers got slightly tuned down but are still incredibly solid, like you think its a game of nerfs when if youre even remotely smart half the game is just stopped by a throwing net or cooked shot or still gets owned by TC.

You arent That Guy. You actually arent Built Different, you arent the kind of nigga who could do Crowbar Only Dom before the buff. You think you need the meta build but you never did, because damn near everything does work and most of it (AR) still works fantastically.

Puts you to the test of what?
Carrying a ton of bear traps, caltrops and grenades while using whatever poorly animated MMO rotation you chose?
Again, the game entirely boils down to minmaxing whatever offensive stat your weapon of choice needs, alphastrike CC everything on screen so they can't actually do anything to you and pray you don't miss on your 95% hit rates or you have to reload, this is Underrail's meta as a whole regardless of the difficulty setting.
The only thing Dominating does is bottleneck you further into the bear trap/net/caltrop etc. meta while thinning down your actual side weapon choice.
>You think you need the meta build but you never did, because damn near everything does work
No, nothing works because what's carrying you are bear traps, caltrops, nets and grenades, not your cooked shots, tungsten rounds, grenade launchers or critmaxxed energy pistols, the former are what makes the latter works, the former are the actual meat and meta of the game which is why as>>730601787 says and I already said, Styg doesn't dare nerf them to the ground because the entire game would completely fucking crumble without those crutches that don't even require any investment.

This is why you fail. Your main methodology is unoptimized and also mid. If you need bear traps in most encounters, your build sucks. If you need caltrops all the time your build sucks. If you need nets all the time, the pattern is clear.

A single Chem pistol with versatility can make an entire dominating arena boss a joke. But you won't craft one. A single shock shuriken or a taser can nullify most things but you arent exploring it. You likely dont carry any kind of real optimization in damage or health resistance optimization whatsoever and I bet 50 charons you dont use Morphine ever preemptively alongside aegis, or actually stock up on focus stims. I bet you dont grenade bait either.

I am Not That Guy. I dont care for Dominating because its a cave full of Sadists and Masochists bragging to one another of how they did better than eachother with dick tier level design. Its a meme difficulty made to be a meme but that's doable. Thats the point of Dom, and you still dont get it because not only are you not That Guy, you are a Nigger. You whine because you cant win at the optimization race because you arent that good at the game, and its okay not to be because again, Dom is a meme. Its not the intended difficulty, its never been, it doesnt even have some weird achievement for beating it or whatever, its not recommended you play it.

You arent just tilting at windmills, you are complaining you arent part of the retard no life club of enjoying cock and ball torture retard. Try normal and basic pistols, you wipe the fucking floor. You are fighting shadows in a cave simulator because you think the joke difficulty engaged by sub 1% of total players matters and that's your real skill issue.

No, you don't need them in most encounters because the game is effectively over at level 16 when your build comes online and there's a metric shitload of boring trash encounters the game throws at you, especially in Expedition.
Will you need them at some encounters? Yes, you will, because the game is literally designed around it, try to beat up the Forge zerg rush on Dominating with a Energy gun build without ever using traps, caltrops and gas nades when your entire builds gimmick, crits, are disabled.
>A single Chem pistol with versatility can make an entire dominating arena boss a joke
Smoke bombs alone makes any arena boss including Carnifex a joke provided you have the initiative, that doesn't mean anything, the arena lives and dies by initiative rolls so you don't need to craft shit, hell you don't even need smoke bombs as long as you get the initiative, I have no idea why you're even mentioning shit like Focus stims when the game literally throws that shit at you like candy because you're supposed to use them as much as you can, you're truly a cocksucking midwit.

They technically got nerfed with the 50 and 100% increase in Hard and Dom as now you can't wipe people out with a single grenade but pretty much. I don't think people realize just how fucking insane three pointer is, a grenade critting is fucking stupid insanely good, and all it wants is 7 dex. At base 50 throwing, its 10% chance, at 150 (very easy to get) you just got yourself a 25% chance to wipe an encounter.

Anon, nobody really likes Styg. He's okay at the best of times, and is an ignorant weird designer at the worst with a penchant for being kind of lame and not reading any kind of suggestion ever. There is no emotional attachment to Styg from almost anyone here at all, and if you're endlessly posting about it thinking you're owning anyone, you're being a pathetic dipshit who doesn't understand he's not defended because he's likeable, you're attacked because you're pathetic.

If you don't play a game, and say its beneath you, but you also spent like 300 hours beating the game on the hardest difficulty with like 4 builds and then after abandoning it, crawl back into a thread of the game to sperg out, that's objectively unhinged and pathetic. Its the gaming equivalent of stalking your Ex on Facebook and slandering her after you divorced and she took the kids.

As actual criticisms, Foundry sucks, most uniques are still dogshit, most vendors are mid, the speed pace is weird, many psionic gangs are overtuned, the crawler superboss went without an oddity for actual years, the plot is kinda shit, Six is awful and things only got great with Expedition because even before that a lot of the game was good but never great. This game ain't perfect, but you are pathetic screaming for a throne of a difficulty of a game you forsake and now are yelling from the streets like a tweaker. Get real Pipeworker.

>that's objectively unhinged and pathetic.
No, you're just defending your master because you feel attacked after people like me saw the latest shitfit and came here to laugh at the game and your downright embarrassing attempts at justifying what we saw happening for years, with the anniversary patch being an even more embarrassing shitshow than the PSI patch.
I'm pathetic for having played the game extensively and pointing out how Styg is a petty idiot who actively fucks over his own userbase to please a select handful of sycophants like you and get glazed in his tiny discord server?

Get real anon, everyone who played Underrail since back in the days knows your and Styg's game, people are never going to stop making fun of this deranged serbian's shitfits, especially when Infusion will come out and bomb after he managed to burn what little good will he managed to get with the first game, and he will continue making everything worse with his hysterical no fun allowed mentality.

Bre, I don't care about Styg as a person and I am surely not acting in his best interests. I play his game when I have the time, and I don't engage with Dominating ever. I laugh at you sperging out with your free time being what you think I am, because its funny, but the Dom nerds are literally just the autistic 1% and he threw them more pain. You aren't That Guy, stop trying to pretend you are.

You don't have the skills for current Dom, again that's fine. I don't care about it and find it a weird lame sadist club, you do care and now you have a chip on your shoulder for weird shit thinking I'm in on some game when I could not be assed. The game is a clearly unfinished imperfect developmental baby where you can literally see the development changes like layers of rock on a cliff face, and I am not going to be kind to Infusion, nor am I going to vouch for Styg when you are right, he has a weird shitfit sometimes.

But this IS unhinged and pathetic. You got burned off a difficulty and now stalk some threads of a game you no longer play declaring a weird Jyhad on some weird serbian thinking he made CBT the official difficulty when he clearly never did, and thinking everyone laughing at you is a shill.

Just like I've said a million times before.
I will never play oddity XP, nor above normal difficulty. And I don't recommend you do either.
The fun and the fascination of Underrail for me never came from the austic character building or even the draconian learning curve (even if they are ultimately positives of the game). No, what Underrail in my humble opinion delivers the best is sheer intrguing atmosphere. Plot set in a setting that is mysterious and interesting that makes you want to uncover more at every opportunity even when the world around you is hostile, dangerous, utterly bizarre and depressing. Getting to explore Lemuria, finally finding myself in Abyssal Station 0, discovering the Shadowlith. or the Oculus for example were some of the coolest moments I've had playing this game.

Having said that however, I do admit wholeheartedly that doing some of these changes like the health increase on harder difficulties or boosting the crafting requirements to quite an absurd level or just overall nerfing builds 10 years into the game's life cycle is not only silly, but bizarre, if not spiteful. Obviously I can't see into Styg's head and I hope he hasn't gone derailed (pun intended); but if some of those Discord screenshots posted earlier in this thread are anything to go by, I'm not particularly optimistic.

Is that why you're still ferociously whiteknighting Styg and attacking me for pointing out the obvious? DOM is a "sadist" club when it's the only difficulty level that is not a complete snoozefest, although for the wrong reasons?
I supposedly don't have the "skills" for DOM despite clearing it multiple times before and after both the PSI patch and Heavy Duty?

Again, I know your game, I used to post in the general for years as well before having enough of your mental gymnastics over a mediocre game that got steadily worse through the years, I've seen you and your goody two shoes act over and over and you're not fooling anyone.
You say you shittalk Styg yourself but then immediately attack and belittle me or anyone else when they do the same, because you're the actually unhinged and pathetic goody two shoes here, especially when all of your fallacious claims about the game have been utterly dismantled and you've started coping by personally attacking me rather than my arguments, you're a deluded retard with severe stockholm syndrome.

I have literally never posted in any general ever. Styg is a weirdo abrassive egotistical idiot who ignores feedback, and you're a stalker Ex on facebook still. All three are true at the same time.

You're malding about a game you don't play and say is beneath you in a thread, while having already been "suckered" by the game, whining and complaining about difficulty because now its over your skills, while people more skilled than you beat Dom without an issue with better builds skills and technique. You haven't played at all and make a big show about going to BG3 and you've now spent like 2 hours here arguing with me when I'm just telling you that you suck and the game is flawed and for you to actually let go then.

You are malding at the shadows of a barely socialized balding serbian man in his 40s with a wife and kids with a flawed as hell game, yelling about difficulty being inaccessible and shit when you supposedly swore off the game, now ranting on 4chan about how even BG3 is better. Styg is a weirdo, and so are you for acting like this.

why would you want to play a game that deliberately wastes your time, has a terrible story and terrible balance?
there's a reason no one talks about this game, it's made by some autistic fuck who doesn't even know what he wants to do with his games other than have players suck his dong the entire time

>>730567781
the game isn't fun to build in or even theory craft, terrible UI and you're forced to do all the math yourself since the game doesn't combine anything at all
it's got a "preferred" way to play which essentially destroys any semblance of progression for rummaging around abandoned file cabinets for XP
>>
The only thing i disagree with is the nerf to cheap shots' incapacitation chance affecting non-light weapons. Nerf knives/unarmed, go for it as this feat would be a must-pick on those builds even just as the bonus crit damage, but leave sword/hammer out of it, hell even give hammer a bigger chance ~30% considering the AP costs(even after pummel buff)

the game feels incredibly slow even at max speeds as well

Underrail's difficulty is way overblown, and the people complaining the most about balance changes are usually ones that play the game on Dominating. The difficulty of the game mainly comes from encounter design and enemies having some weird gimmick like normal than higher DT, stun or incapacitation ability, or deal damage that goes through regular armor, basically shit you might not be currently prepared for, rather than some insurmountable build check. The main thing to realize about Underrail is that it's a game focused on CC, so anything that lets you instantly nuke or incapacitate enemies is invaluable.

Just get AGI 6 for Sprint and DEX 6 for Grenadier. Every build benefits from extra movement and having grenades for AoE DMG and CC. Then max out your main weapon stat and get enough stat points for feats you plan on getting later. Get enough STR if you're planning to use heavier weapons, or max out DEX if you use knives, fists or pistols. Stealth skill is great for all builds including otherwise loud ones that don't go full heavy armor, since it allows you to pick your battles, and you get the first turn automatically regardless of initiative if you're the one to start combat.

My "metas" didn't get shit, you can still mindlessly beartrap and caltrop your way through DOM as usual, warcrimes are a tiny bit less effective than they were before and...three pointer is actually somewhat required now, kinda, I guess? Underrail never was and still isn't a hard game, it's an extremely tedious game that got even more tedious because that's what Styg likes, that's his entire design philosophy by his own admission, to annoy players as much as possible.
My favorite build ever was max INT energy gun crafter so if anything I'm one of the extremely lucky few who came out of this patch unscathed were I to replay the game, only thing that changed is that now I have to pay more feat taxes for crafting in a build that had plenty of extra feat slots I'd spend on other QoL fit like maxed out Disassemble (so I would be free from repair kit weight and associated busywork), you still have no idea what you're talking about.
>I have literally never posted in any general ever.
Which is why you keep using images posted in the underrail general and the same passive aggressive styg apologisms posted ad nauseam in the underrail general for years, again, who the fuck do you think you're fooling?
Do you have any shred of self awareness or dignity?
Do you think I do not remember the olympics tier mental gymnastics you and your ilks engaged to when the PSI patch dropped and tried to defend Styg again while calling anyone who complained about it bad at the game?
I'd tell you to take a hard, long look in the mirror (if you have any) before trying to judge others but I'm already aware I'm wasting my breath on a clueless, lying retard, so I'll leave it at this.

I got these from other people. You aren't that smart.

All your yapping ends up being you can't play and can't do and now seethe boo hoo. You try and speak a lot and say nothing as you mald to a game you don't play at all but are now on hour 3 of investing time into. I mean kudos I guess, you are consistently pathetic.

Is there such a thing as a full facetank build for Dominating?

Too much extra work, it needs to be fast and simple.
I gas them and the ones who make it through get shot.
>>
>>730611556
Your screenshot is the opposite of fast and simple. You need like 10 of traps here at all.
>>
>>730611797
I use speedhax to set them up, it takes less than a minute.
Also mines cost too much in mats and requirements. Caltrops need throwing to land where you want them to.
>>
>>730609450
It's pretty obvious that Styg himself is obsessed with DOM the most. I'm willing to wager that if DOM didn't exist neither would most of these "balance" patches.

1.2.0.23 was the last one before the anniversary update (1.3.0.15) and both DLCs existed long before.
Current version is 1.3.0.17

On normal the game is pretty forgiving, I actually managed to get like 2/3 of the main game + DLC with a shittty tank build. (I had to abuse a lot of quicksave to basically learn the correct way to start every encounter, but that is more on my part for having a crap build). As long as you don't something like jack of all trades like I did the difficulty is okayish. I didn't finish the game tough, it was gettig boring to do the same every time for like 20 hours in (flashbang > granade > spam AR / Shotgun > take cover > reload > repeat)

You are definitely playing the wrong game. If you employ this much autism for a single player semi-rpg then you should pick another game.

Noice, I got this standalone installer from gog a year or so ago and just finished another playthrough of the game. No heavy duty, no anniversary autism.

if this is true why havent he nerfed traps/caltrops/nades yet to oblivion? They still triviliaze the shit out of the game. Even the gas nerf wasnt enough

>>730610884
>you can still mindlessly beartrap and caltrop your way through DOM
Of course, but you don't have to if you don't want to. They're by no means mandatory if you're a skilled player and your character is strong enough.
Why are you so angry that the game gives you multiple tools and solutions? Such an ironic post.
>>
I think the reason why he hasnt nerfed throwing too badly, it is because of how many retarded overwhelming outnumbering encounters the game has. Sometimes it feels i was supposed to have a party of 4 people. Which would make a lot of builds unreasonably harder with quick save and quickloading simply because you lost the initiative check

Some slav faggot that I found by looking up Underrail build guides.
He tried his hand at game development himself, released TWO (2) games on Steam which were horrid, and since his shitty games bombed hard he nuked his entire youtube channel out of spite.

Every time I see Underrail I hear his retarded slow voice and heavy accent, because I've associated him with the game.
Love the game though, I hate party-based RPGs so it felt really good being alone

They're not mandatory if you play a select handful of builds...that reliy on other crutches that are effectively the same exact thing like flashbangs, nets etc.

there were lots of ways to cheese bosses like moon lord, and they nerfed all of them by making the bosses hit you somehow

This image is a pretty good qrd
but the most egregious one is one of the bosses bypassing several game mechanics after already being added to the game simply because its the OC of the dev's wife.

You also have bizarre shit like making waterbolt unobtainable until its long past its powerspike. For 10 years or so players would maybe get lucky and see it spawn before its respective boss but then the devs decided that was too OP apparently.
>>
>>730575380
>this game and its lore is boring
I felt the same way, maybe it gets better later but from the first few hours I played I just could not bring myself to care. Game was a terrible purchase and wish I could have refunded.
>>
>>730615515
Drop rates being drastically reduced from mobs if you don't use the correct biome torches, but I think he changed that because the backlash to it was huge.
>>
I remember hearing that the Darkest Dungeon dev would do shit like this all the time, constantly nerfing characters because they made the single player offline game "unfair".

Bringing a knife to a gun fight is one of the coolest builds. Too bad it's suboptimal compared to just sniping everything since robots don't care about knife players.
