>item's stats on the stat screen doesn't actually reflect its real stats
why do devs do this cryptic shit?

>A, B, C stats
>A is 15% better than C

what's her name number insta twitter tiktok snapchat onlyfans email house address?

>>717476517 (OP)
it's to prevent brainlets from being too lost, but also to prevent people from powergaming

>>717476652
Aww, is someone in love? :3

She already has a boyfriend, buster!

>>717476517 (OP)
wtf are you talking about? what games do this? I just remember diablo 3 having "useless tooltips with no numbers at all" as the default.

>>717477560
brainlets will be even more lost and powergamers will just look it up anyways

>>717477725
I don't know if it still does, but Helldiver 2 did at release.

>>717476517 (OP)
it is like with condoms
Nearly all of those that are magnum sized or something in fact are just normal regular ones

>>717476517 (OP)
Sounds like Mario Kart except they also hide more than half of the other stats with no way to view them in-game.
Doesn't stop anyone from meta-gaming, just annoys them until they rip the game open and tell everyone what the best stats are.

Polosh booktuber whore cant remember name, she got younger sister too

>>717477785
brainlets won't be lost because "bigger number better" and powergamers can't look it up because the information isn't just magically there; it has to be gathered by people, then youtubers make a video about how x is op, and then most sweaties get it.

a game's soul dies when it displays its entrails for you to analyze with 100% certainty

Beauty ruined.

>it has to be gathered by people
no they just read the values directly from memory like they did for helldivers

>>717478052
you have no taste.

nasty ass fingers

>stat/mechanic doesn't actually function the way it says it does

Dungeons Of Dredmor did this a lot. I think it was a feature. Like, "try this and see how much it fucks with you"

I like to date women, not steers.

if you're getting this kind of information from youtubers then you're probably getting it like 3 years later than someone sensible enough to check a wiki

>everyone assumes it's useless because the game's description sounds really stupid
>nobody tries it as a result
>it takes literal years for someone to realise the description is completely and utterly wrong
>the mechanic itself is actually incredibly powerful and provides a missing link to push an otherwise underpowered class up several tiers

where can I see this chick naked?

Etrian Odyssey 5's Graced Poisoner has a skill called Passing Scent that was thought to be useless for a long time for that reason
>the class is based around using status ailment skills that inflict a smoke debuff that makes them more vulnerable to the ailment if you fail
>there's a skill called Passing Scent
>the in-game description is something like "Enemies affected by a smoke debuff may spread their ailment to other enemies at the end of the turn"
>on paper sounds like a niche as fuck effect for a skill at the end of a skill tree that isn't a prerequisite for any other skills, so nobody put points into it
>the actual effect of the skill is that it REPEATS the smoke skill every single turn on affected enemies, so rather than having to choose between healing and inflicting each turn, you just spend 1 turn setting up the smoke and it frees up your action economy to spend the rest of the time doing support stuff

Is this the perfect formula for angering autistic chuds?

Septum piercings are an excellent red flag, always trashy BPD whores get them. Only low-quality men date women with septum piercings.

>>717480942
post someone who's actually attractive next time to make your point more clear

>>717481217
>Item gives 1% haste
>It's actually 3/256 haste

>>717481297
Are you a high quality men, anon?
Besides you probably have more in common with Septum girls than women without.

>>717481217
>item says +100% chance to evade
>it's actually gives +0 chance to evade, unless you have some excisting evasion

>>717481297
Septum piercings are just a signal that the woman has made her "trauma" her entire personality. BPD may not be a factor.

She looks like Alma.

>>717479805
Lmao, someone needs to make a game mechanic where some skills are purposefully worded bad and sound like shit on paper and later on have the player unlock a skill or something that rephrases everything and make them realize its broken all along

>>717483065
woah, just like one piece.

>>717481708
yes I am, pic related

>>717483014
You are face blind
Alma looks like Kson

I fucking hate hidden information in rpg games
RPG is all about autism so why hide stats and stuff?

>>717481639
>Slightly above average but alternative fashionable girl
>anon posts a webm with a slightly above average but alternative fashionable girl
>anon replies angrily like an autistic chud

>>717482959
the formula worked

>>717485432
it's to hide the fact that only like 10% of the gear is actually good and the rest is trash they threw in to dilute the drop tables

>>717476517 (OP)
She’s weirdly ugly
