Will a Smokepowder Satchel explode if Im lit on fire while carrying it?
Posted On: September 5, 2023
I picked up a Smokepowder Satchel that says it explodes when ignited, damaging everything in the vicinity. Some enemy spells can inflict burning. Will a Smokepowder Satchel explode if a character gets lit on fire while carrying it in their inventory?
Question from user Stevoisiak at stackexchange.
Answer:
Nope.
Your inventory is safe from the environment, and vice versa.
That said, a lit grenade is probably not the best thing to store in your pack, even if you're the only one who's going to suffer for it. But even in such . . . [

How to increase the render resolution in God of War pc?
Posted On: September 4, 2023
My laptop has 16GB RAM and a Geforce GTX 1060 6GB. The render resolution option is disabled in the game settings. Is it possible to increase it on my laptop, or is GTX incapable of it?
Question from user Alukaar at stackexchange.
Answer:
God of War has two explicit resolution settings, Output Resolution and Render Resolution:.
If you turn off DLSS, you can adjust these resolutions. But seeing that your GPU doesn't support DLSS, you might have to turn off/adjust the AMD FSR 2.0 setting (under the header Resolution Scaling) to unl . . . [

What game is this music featured in Garrys Mod Idiot Box from?
Posted On: September 3, 2023
I was watching some funny Garry's Mod Idiot Box episodes on YouTube. In episode 3 at 5:41 is a scene that has some music being played in the background. What game is from? It sounds so familiar to me, but I can't put a name to it. It vaguely reminds of an old N64 game.
The video below starts at 5:41, right where the music is heard.

According to that, it's a section from the track “Water Caverns” from the Nintendo 64 classic Goldeneye 007. Independent YouT . . . [

Is unbeatable game state possible?
Posted On: September 3, 2023
I managed to get through the first days at relative ease. After several attempts, I can't earn enough money on the day I'm at to feed and medicate my family.
Is a stalemate situation possible?
Question from user user598527 at stackexchange.
Answer:
First of all, it is entirely possible to play the game without making any mistakes. See this video (I didn't watch it, but it claims to be a perfect playthrough).

Which stat does Eldritch Blast use when grabbing it from the Spell Sniper feat?
Posted On: September 2, 2023
Eldritch Blast is a Warlock cantrip, and Warlocks use their Charisma for their spells, even when you multiclass.
If I have Gale the Wizard (whose spellcasting stat is Intelligence) learn the Spell Sniper feat at level 4, which gives me a cantrip, and I choose Eldritch Blast even though I have no levels in Warlock, will Eldritch Blast use Gale's Intelligence, or his Charisma?

The only thing that can revive this game is DLC
Posted On: September 2, 2023
There is literally no point in playing after you finish the house cup, I understand that they will probably wait to add DLC until the game is out on switch but it’s been almost 7 months since the game initially released and there has been radio silence from Avalanche.
Question from user NoSpace1577 at HogwartsLegacyGaming at reddit.
Answer:
Sometimes, single player games just like.. ends dude. Hard to imagine these days.

Will i enjoy this game if i really like Jedi Fallen Order?
Posted On: September 2, 2023
Ive been wanting HL fo ages and its on sale and i was wondering if id enjoy it if it is similar to jedi fallen order, like combat thats not super hardcore along with exploration, replay ability and a certain levle of challenge.
Now i know HL is open world and fallen order isnt on the same level but im not that bothered by that, as long as its got decent combat and the open world exploration is enjoyable with puzzles to solve.

Is there a purpose for the Planet Scanning meters?
Posted On: September 2, 2023
When scanning a planet, the UI includes meters for each of the resources you might collect. The bars in each of these meters seem to max out when you've collected about 25,000 of the given resource. However, I've been able to continue collecting those resources far beyond the point of maxing out the meters - I currently have well over 50,000 Palladium.
So far, I haven't noticed any adverse effects of "overstocking" on resources like this. Is there something I'm missing, or do these meters really serve no purpose asi . . . [
