garretble, do games w Foamstars | Review Thread
@garretble@lemmy.world avatar

When I tried it, the worst part is actually trying to see what’s going on. When you shoot the foam, it builds up little hills of foam over time, which changes the landscape. You can run up on it and whatnot until the other team tears it down.

But what it also means is that you now have these new obstacles you can’t see over or around, so the combat is just hard to keep up with. At least for me.

And I actually thought it’d be more like Splatoon, but in the end here the main game mode is still killing the other team members a certain number of times.

It’s all not terrible, honestly. But it makes me want to play Splatoon instead of more Foamstars.

Snowrunner - stunning scenery and realism, and you can take it as slow as you want…

I learned how to reflect the laser beams in Breath of the Wild when I fought Ganon.

Is this why the site was down for maintenance almost all day the other day? I just wanted to log in and see if I owned a game on there or not and was getting time out errors most of the day. Tried in the evening and loaded to a message about extra maintenance because they were migrating to a new system (and still couldn’t log in to check anything).

Quite possibly. Edit: I’m also having difficulty shopping for any new games in GOG Galaxy, however they are still available on gog.com.

All I can think of is a Donald Glover bit where he said he had a fear of someone just putting a gun on him and telling him to put his dick in his butt and came to realization he can just tuck underneath instead of trying to reach around his waist. So I’m incapacitated by laughter to think of my own times this has happened.

Any Dark Souls with a heavy weapon. Just smashing those puny hollows into pancakes.

When I first tried guitar hero, for some reason I thought I should strum using the side of my thumb. I’d have this swollen bump (there’s a word for this but it escapes me) where I made contact and thought I just needed to get used to it to get past that. It made sense to me because I knew there was toughening of the fingers involved in playing a real guitar (never mind that it had nothing to do with strumming).

I was doing double strumming and practicing for expert level that way.

When I realized I could instead use my thumb pad to strum down and finger pad to strum up, it was game changer. You treat it like it’s a pick. Duh.

Dodge Offset in Bayonetta. I played through 1&2 a couple times over before even becoming aware of it.

It’s a totally different game once you wrap your head around it. My opinion of Bayo 1 went way up as a result - Dodge Offset is the glue that holds the combat together and is the key differentiating feature from all other character action games.

Definitely shield dropping in smash bros melee. Seemed like an essentially impossibly difficult skill, and nearly made me stop playing because I don’t have the time to invest into that kind of tech skills just to be competitive. But then I had my eureka moment when I learned that you can get your shield up and not roll if you just have the stick to the right or left when you press shield in the first place. After that it’s just dropping the stick down one notch and you’re dropping like no tomorrow. Bit of practice to get the timing down and now I’ve unlocked an entirely new dimension of my play.

Yet another reason I cannot stop playing melee. Every time I think I’ve figured that game out, it reveals an entirely new level of depth that was invisible before I had the tech to see it.

Claire Redfield in darkside chronicles. I saw that ASS and that was the last I saw of it. Before Stellar Blade, there was Claire Redfield. Claire Redfield is awesome.

Looks like Splatoon at home doesn’t have the same appeal as Pokemon at home (note: just using “at home” to note similarity, not to downplay quality).

For a while I just couldn’t play souls-likes. The enemy attacks were blatantly undodgeable. Like, even if you move at the maximum possible speed, in any direction, at the very start of an animation, you can’t get out of the way. Then I realized you’re not really supposed to get out of the way, you’re supposed to abuse the immunity frames from the roll to “dodge” straight through the attacks. Basically the opposite of what I had been doing.

I love Derail Valley, though I absolutely suck at it. I don’t want to look up spoilers online, but I have been playing for 3 months and I still haven’t found the slug, and I am still mostly hauling stuff around with 3 DE-2s. I’m excited for when they add in NPC trains, though I have no clue how that will work with the current map.

Literally every single character in the newest Pokemon game. The entire narrative is so god damned insufferable. I‘ll never buy another Pokemon game again unless it’s like Arceus and has less narrative.

ouRKaoS,

Pokemon didn’t grow up with it’s player base. They try and keep the storylines Kid friendly, when I’d guess 70%+ of players are adults.

Black & White probably had the most “Adult” narratives of the series, delving into the slavery/forced labor a bit. I’d love to see the games delve into some more adult themes, but I doubt it will happen.

Nikls94,

That sandwich dude is pretty good written tbh

thorbot,

If you’re talking about the sandwich vendors, they were the worst. Everything about interacting with ingredient or sandwich vendors is soulless.

Nikls94,

No no, I mean this one story line with that guy that makes sandwiches to cure his mastiff!

You’re right, those vendors were as soulless as my red-haired ex.
