SuperSaiyanSwag, do games w The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion

Just finished the first Phoenix Wright, almost done with Warioland 4 and I think I’m at the end of act two of Baldurs Gate 3. Not enjoying bg3 as much as others unfortunately, maybe crpg is just not my thing.

Very nice to see The Sinking City included so many times. There was so much weirdness surrounding its release that I feel like it gets swept under the rug a lot. It's incredibly underrated in my opinion, and while not the greatest, it has interesting characters and story.

“new insult” from like 7 years ago. Also, I would be shocked if this wasn’t faked in the first place

DefyTheLegends,

Yeah, basically a day 1 overwatch joke along with Genji mains.

Feels like a repost of a repost that got regurgitated by a bot and then ported over to Lemmy.

simple,

It’s an old meme, I’ve seen this one years ago.

spamfajitas,

I could believe this instance specifically isn’t real, but I personally was sent home in elementary/primary school for calling a kid a banana. Sure, I’d called him a shit head a few days before, but I was told to say something nicer and still got suspended.

You’ve got The Secret World on there already, but worth mentioning they did a remake: Secret World Legends. Whole ton of QoL changes, combat was revamped, but otherwise the same game.

Suuuuuper niche game, but if it happens to be your niche it’ll become one of your all time favorites.

Appropriate actually. Hanzo main is essentially saying someone thinks they're the protagonist, as they believe they'll single handedly wipe the other team on a flank. That describes someone who steals your pencil. Smart kid.

Haha I had to look up what that meant. The teacher was right, it’s an insult but a very funny one.

It’s not clear exactly why Hanzo has such a bad reputation, but it probably has to do with the fact that he’s a character who requires a highly skilled player to really be effective. Unlike other characters, Hanzo tends to work best as a lone wolf, so there’s often the perception that he’s not really contributing to the team’s composition as a whole. This becomes particularly irksome when a team has a hole in its composition that so desperately needs to be filled, but that last person on the team decides to go for Hanzo instead

Article here. I don’t play overwatch, so I didn’t get it.

GrumpyFortuneCat,

A Hanzo Main is an insult Overwatch players throw around when one of their teammates exclusively plays the archer — Hanzo Shimada — regardless of the situation or how they’re playing.

Diehard fans of the archer will select him even when he’s clearly a poor choice, and refuse to switch characters if they’re struggling to find their mark and everyone else on their team is begging them to switch. To make matters worse, the most toxic Hanzo Mains are notorious for blaming their team for losing a game, even when it was clearly their unwillingness to cooperate that led to defeat.

I had to look it up too. Here is the article.

Dagnet,

Your explanation is actually good, the first article the other guy linked is trying so hard to justify bad hanzo players it’s funny.

Overwatch literally pings every time someone kills another, hanzo is a sniper, if he is good EVERYONE IN THE MATCH will notice. Good Hanzo players don’t play away from their teams, their range compared to Widow is low and they don’t have great disengage skills, they need their team to peel for them. A lone hanzo is a dead hanzo 90% of the time

Varyk,

Thanks, I was hoping someone had left a relevant comment.

Big bump for Sundered if you like 2D Metroidvanias. I have played through it at least 5 times (you need to do it 3 times to get all the endings)

Returnal is a good one for this list as well, has everything you’d expect from a lovecraftian inspire game.

I don’t think Scorn belongs on any Lovecraft lists. Its main influence is pretty direct, namely H. R. Giger.

MotoAsh,

Yea, body horror and cosmic horror are quite distinctly different, too.

RizzRustbolt,

Giger and Beksiński.

You forgot “Prisoner of Ice” and “Shadow of the Comet”, the two Call of Cuthulu adventures.

Nice info ty

leave_it_blank,

No, thank you for this list! I adore Lovecraft!

Gonna add SOMA into the mix. That game was intensely Lovecraftian. Hopelessness of man, hyper powerful monsters that cannot be killed, psychological terror, body horror, great shit.

Loved Dredge. Can’t wait for the DLC later this month.

I bought on launch, and it’s getting new content and NG+ on 16th.

The world of Warcraft Legion expansion had a pretty neat rogue hideout. Flash your members coin to a shop owner and he opened the hidden passageway to our subterranean lair. Luckily when khadgar ripped up the entire city and teleported it to a new floating home in the sky he brought the basement too.
