Should I also get the Below Zero bundle?
Should I also get the Below Zero bundle?
No worries! GLHF!
There is always a save point near a boss room (not miniboss rooms), and you respawn at the last save point you have rested at after you die. Usually I just go straight in again, but if you ever feel like the boss is too strong or need a break, you could always leave to farm experience and gold before you go in again.
Finished this game recently. Took me about 30 hours, which includes getting every collectible and upgrades in the game.
The only game I’ve played that is similar to this is Hollow Knight, which although could be extremely hard when it wants to, most of the main game is not as brutal as Nine Sols.
TBH, it’s really frustrating when you keep dying over and over on the same enemy. But when you finally nail down the movements and parry timings, it’s pretty satisfying to see yourself come out of a fight you were struggling before with minimal damage.
For that reason, I hope that they implement a boss rush mode that lets you go back and fight previous bosses without having to go through the entire game again.
Other than that, the music and atmosphere is pretty decent. I enjoyed the story a lot and the way they use manga panels to tell it throughout. Very glad I played this game.
Ah I see. So I took a quick look at their contract and some articles, the ownership of the batteries is with Gogoro during your plan, and they give you the option to pause this plan (30 days minimum a time, 90 days max per year). If you decide to pause or cancel the plan, you will have to return the batteries you currently have, and they will give you spare batteries in return. I don’t think you’ll be guaranteed good batteries either way.
Ratger gambling on what’s the quality/wear level of the next set will be.
You shouldn’t need to worry about getting bad batteries. Since it’s priced at an Ah/month basis (there are also km ridden per month plans), you can swap batteries whenever you feel like it. It is on Gogoro to maintain the health of the batteries, and swap in new ones when they go bad (or upgrade battery versions!).
All they have to do is pull out old batteries not fit for using out of the loop, and maybe repurpose them for something else, like grid power storage system.
That’s the idea!
so it is your battery and got additional batteries you can swap on the road with a subscription?
No, you don’t get additional batteries. Once you start using the swapping service, the battery that came with your scooter goes into circulation. I suppose when you decide to stop subscribing to the service, the batteries that you have currently will be yours to keep. (I don’t own a Gogoro btw)
Yeah, and I agree that this system works great with scooters but not for cars.
So I can give an example. Here in Taiwan, Gogoro has put up a lot of battery swap stations for their electric scooters. When you buy the scooter, it comes with removable batteries which you can charge on your own. Or, you can buy a monthly subscription on top of it that gives you access to those battery stations, where you can ride up to one and swap a pair of freshly charged batteries into your scooter. Subscription price is tiered by Ah per month, if you go over the limit you pay extra per Ah.
In this case, yes I think Gogoro is in charge of maintaining/replacing old batteries. Subscription is separate from the scooter cost, so buying used should not affect your ability to subscribe to the plan.
In Taiwan we just call it 總統府, which translates to “the presidential office”. It’s true that it is a Japanese-colonial-era building, but I only ever heard it referenced in historical context, like in a tour or a textbook.
Fun fact: there are also some Spanish and Dutch buildings remaining in Taiwan. They were the first official colonizers before the Ming-dynasty took over.
Hades 2 Early access! Got it as soon as it shadow dropped on Steam.
Even though it’s in early access and the ending won’t be revealed until launch, there’s already so much content I’m having a blast playing it already.
Just word of caution, the game obviously is still incomplete. There are unfinished artwork all around, navigating menus with a controller can be clunky occasionally, and imo the game balance really needs to be tuned. Hence early access for Supergiant to receive player feedback. With so much more game mechanic to choose from compared to the first game, I feel like the boon upgrades are spread a little too thin to boost enough base weapon damage to carry into later regions. Or maybe I’m just bad at the game idk haha.
If you want the complete experience from start to finish, I would recommend you wait, and it’s okay to do so.
But, if you can live with the downsides of early access, and don’t mind spoiling yourself before launch, Hades 2 is a good time now. I’d encourage anyone who are playing it now to actively give feedback to make this the best game on launch!
Isn’t that just called “being polite”?
Rather Chinese nationalism is still very much alive and well in Taiwan
Only a small minority identify themselves as “Chinese not Taiwanese” nowadays. According to the latest public surveys (News article, Survey source, has English in the graphs), only 2.4% think that way (declining), 61% identify as Taiwanese (rising), and 32% as both (declining). And then you compare it to the unify-indipendence survey and see that a combined 60% still prefer the status quo, with independence behind at 25%, and unify at 10%. KMT may still have a large voter base in TW, but Chinese nationalism isn’t the only reason people vote for them. You would want to look at 中華統一促進黨 for true Chinese nationalism and PRC sympathisers.
I think I’ve always been drawn to good human vocals.
I remember using crappy earbuds and shedding a tear to Earth Song by Michael Jackson when I was a teenager. It’s not my favourite song now, and I don’t think I’ve ever cried to song after that, but music with good vocals can still definitely give me goose bumps. Anytime I listen to Jacob Collier’s Moon River, or any video of his that has him conducting the entire concert audience to sing harmonically always give me the chills.
China is deseparately trying to flip off every neighboring country, aren’t they?
Foreign interference Anyone who opposes us
Physical media doesn’t have the luxury of endlessly replicating itself via a simple copy and paste.
I just don’t see a way that will end well for both sides when one side is exploiting the hatred towards another, while the other side is not keen on enabling such an extremist group.
Quick thinking would easily conclude that admitting lost would also break the status quo. A treaty would have to be signed, and since the PRC would never give up trying to gain new territory, what good will it do to Taiwanese people who have no desire to join the PRC?
Petty is when your girlfriend keeps your favorite shirt after the breakup.
And get your facts straight. ROC came before PRC. PRC never ruled over Taiwan once. The “girlfriend” in your story here is PRC, not Taiwan.
Hey, how about you tell PRC to fuck off and not threaten war? You realize it’s been 75 years. That’s 2+ generations already, Taiwanese people no longer identify themselves as Chinese, and the ruling party now is not the same dictatorship that wants to reunite with China. No one wants war, but Taiwan does not want another dictatorship either.
