Putting Sonic in a game with competitive running is a joke from the get-go. He can run at the speed of sound. Ridiculous.

Ew, touching the bottom of an optical disc

Because the person who made the meme took the screenshots from google instead of their own game.

Wow… hella lazy.

Gyorg was tough as a kid, but… bosses should be tough. Some of OoT’s bosses were TOO easy (King Dodongo and Morpha in particular).

I felt like II had very few modern segments and was worth it

the combats a bit clunky

Compared to what?

morphballganon, 13 dni temu

You can’t think of a game with non-clunky combat, and you still mark Skyrim down for it?

morphballganon, 13 dni temu

Asking you to clarify your argument is not me making my own. That’s a straw man fallacy.

Also Skyrim’s combat is much better than Stardew Valley’s…

morphballganon, 13 dni temu

Stardew has no dual wielding… only one type of attack per weapon. There are bombs, sure.

Compared to Skyrim though?

There are still good AAA games. The trick is to wait for reviews with gameplay videos and only buy the good ones.

I used to play Unblock Me. Made it maybe 1000 levels in various difficulties before stopping.

Also… and I never see anyone else mention this… DOOM does not take place on Mars.

DOOM episode 1: Knee-Deep in the Dead takes place on Phobos. Episode 2: The Shores of Hell takes place on Deimos. Episode 3: Inferno takes place in Hell.

Doom 2: Hell on Earth takes place, as you might think, on Earth.

The whole plot of the first game is that humans are experimenting with teleporters between Phobos and Deimos, when Deimos mysteriously vanishes. To investigate, the player character is sent to Phobos, with the mission to make it through the teleporter to Deimos to see where it is. But upon arriving on Phobos, something is horribly wrong…

I guess you forgot about the Wii remote turning being too slow for fighting the hive queen

Nope, you’re not the only one. The Wii port of Prime wasn’t as well-tested as the original.

Halo is more “figuring out how to defeat this room of enemies IS the puzzle” whereas Metroid’s puzzles are platforming and figuring out how to apply this new item to the areas you’ve already visited, and there just happen to also be enemies to fight.

I maxed it out and it was still slower than the GCN stick let you turn. Beating the bee boss thus relied on luck where it shouldn’t.

Oh of course, anything else was unplayable

Agreed but what does that have to do with a work created by a team of hundreds of people?

Oohhh Sirius would be the best choice I think, so it can go on after James’s death and you can confront Peter at the end

So, you’re just going to ignore the hundreds of game makers who worked on the game and don’t share her views?

Where does the money flow, bud?

A lot of people. Artists, programmers, voice actors, designers etc. So what if some fraction goes to a bigot? I’m not allowing her to live rent-free in my head and control my purchases like you are.

My replies aren’t for the troll’s benefit, but to give context to undecided lurkers.

morphballganon, miesiąc temu

Being a lurker and being a troll are mutually exclusive. When you start being a troll, you are no longer a lurker.

Sounds more like an “easy mode” thing. Have certain enemies immune to certain guns on the harder difficulties. Want to just use the shotgun? Play easy mode. Want to be more strategic? Play a harder difficulty.

Did they ever fix the stick sensitivity issue?

Cartridges actually have much faster load times than discs. Notice how the Switch has reverted back to cartridges? They’re faster.

As for the controller… It is pretty odd. Though, at the time, we didn’t have the same standard for controller design we have now. So it makes sense that Nintendo would try something bold. Then after they had committed to the design, the world decided the PS1 controller made much more sense, and that became the benchmark for future controller designs.

How about first we charge the real people doing real war crimes, e.g., Netanyahu and Putin? Then we can talk about whether mashing buttons is comparable.

Yeah, I was considering listing Bush Jr, but then it would have felt weird leaving the others out, and I didn’t feel like listing them all.

Wish there was another one of those. It was a little too short and simple.

I thought Twinrova was decent and not “easily” beat by Dark Link. The shield absorption thing was more interesting than “just switch to the hammer and Din’s Fire.”

It’s “harmless” in the sense that ads are “harmless” which is to say it’s a deliberate waste of my time, and thus vile.

Kinda funny that a larger team with better tech struggles to recreate what a smaller team with more limited tech did 25 years ago

morphballganon, 2 miesiące temu

There’s much precedent for that kind of feature in other games. Why should having online in a PD reboot be any harder than Halo, CoD, Fortnite etc?

morphballganon, 2 miesiące temu

No, if I had assumed that, it would be baffling, not funny.

Could you (or someone) elaborate on that first point there?

So, it’s the lack of admin rights? Inability to decide your own sitewide TOS, lack of privacy from Discord admins, possibility of getting shut down, that’s what they meant?

(I’m not familiar with those other platforms)

So the worry is of a surveillance state?

You must have played the remake of SS. The original has its merits, but polished it ain’t.

I’ve sunk more time into TotK than any of the others. I have nostalgia for OoT, TWW and TP, but their gameplay don’t hold up to BotW or TotK if you take off the nostalgia glasses.

Might replay BotW at some point.
