Charms from paper mario

haughty pumice
#

Yeah

mild briar
#

Oh I just found the purchase button, thanks anyway

haughty pumice
#

I like what they did with Ori 2

stoic sigil
#

Holy bait

haughty pumice
#

Lovely hud you can expand, good combat, slightly better exploration, a lot of secrets

cerulean moat
#

I just started and off the bat I like it more

stoic sigil
#

Let's go fishing, guys!

cerulean moat
#

The HUD was a massive improvement imo

haughty pumice
#

The only bad thing was framerate at times but it wasn't the most noticable thing

fiery burrow
#

Spirit shards were great. Felt like they gave a lot of customizability, moreso than HK

serene chasm
#

Also the quests in Ori 2 were really badly designed IMO

haughty pumice
#

Some of them

#

Especially towards the end of the game

fiery burrow
#

Good quests in Ori 2:
||Moki stone family one||
Bad quests:
Everything else

haughty pumice
#

Pffft

fiery burrow
#

Oh there was also the ||trading one ||I liked that

astral rover
#

any news

#

?

cerulean moat
#

My main problem with ori is that it is more linear than hollow knight. The main thing I like about metroidvanias is the freedom

serene chasm
cerulean moat
#

Not bad though, just prefer hk

cerulean moat
#

Yeah ori 1 was really short

#

Took 3 days

fallen blaze
#

Deviator and hk the only good metroidvanias

serene chasm
#

You know games are allowed to be short

astral rover
#

closer to the length of a traditional metroidvania, sure, but hk really showed that bigger is better in the genre imo

fiery burrow
#

Deviator broke my heart

cerulean moat
#

Yeah but it's a metroidvania

fallen blaze
#

What's the longest game ever

cerulean moat
#

I feel like metroidvanias are supposed to be on the longer side

#

They're exploration based

formal marsh
serene chasm
#

Most games are 8-15 hours. Including most metriodvanias

fiery burrow
#

The bigger it is the less focused it is

formal marsh
#

just because it can

astral rover
serene chasm
#

I think yall got spoiled by HK

fiery burrow
#

And most metroidvanias aren't that long yeah

astral rover
#

hk is like 35 if I remember right

quartz cave
fallen blaze
#

70

#

Thousand

serene chasm
#

Hey Ismo

cerulean moat
#

I also liked the endgame content of hk

astral rover
#

I liked it except for godmaster

#

too hard

cerulean moat
#

Godmaster slaps imo

#

I love challenges

serene chasm
#

Godmaster is fine until P5

#

All my homies hate P5

astral rover
#

it's good but the difficulty spike is just unreasonable at P5 imo

fallen blaze
#

They dont make dlc like godhome 🚬

formal marsh
#

i love godmaster

cerulean moat
#

P5 was ridiculous

young saffron
#

was p5 optional

fallen blaze
#

Idk about difficulty spike

wheat sail
#

fight evert boss and start all over if you die yippeeee

fiery burrow
#

P5 isn't ridiculously hard its just ridiculously long and boring

cerulean moat
#

Having to beat P5 twice was such a stupid design choice

formal marsh
#

you dont have to do that

fallen blaze
#

Wha

cerulean moat
#

They should've just given you absrad to start off with

astral rover
#

yeah skill issue maybe but I was able to get through everything else in the game pretty reasonably and P5 took literally dozens of hours for me

#

legitimately hardest thing I've done in a game is beat it

fallen blaze
#

Absbad shouldve been challenge able after p4

fiery burrow
cerulean moat
#

I had to beat it once to get the boss in hall of gods

serene chasm
cerulean moat
#

Then again after I practiced

astral rover
fallen blaze
#

Like damn they just gon hide. a whole ass boss behind a long ahh boss rush

opaque sigil
#

What would be ideal is p5 cutting out 80% of the bosses

fiery burrow
#

Also AbsRad is mid

astral rover
#

then add some way to chain together all the pantheons to figth them all in a row if you please - just lock some lore or small thing behind it

fiery burrow
#

In comparison to the last 4 pantheon heads

cerulean moat
#

Losing to an easy fight and Losing 20-30 minutes killed me inside

quartz cave
formal marsh
#

3

stoic sigil
#

P5 should just be normal Zote and then absrad

fallen blaze
#

Oh that's right

quartz cave
#

Wrong reply

fallen blaze
#

They're easier to get to tbf

cerulean moat
#

NKG gets kinds easy after the first time

opaque sigil
#

GSM gives you winged nosk and sob immediately

cerulean moat
#

Pure vessel was a chokepoint for me

#

Winged nosk can die

#

So lazy

formal marsh
opaque sigil
#

Godseeker mode

astral rover
#

at P5 levels of difficulty the game just becomes RNG. you reach your skill ceiling, giving you whatever percent chance to beat something. then P5 just rolls those dice so many times that your chances become abysmally low and the only way to overcome them is through sheer time investment

fallen blaze
#

Blehhhhh

formal marsh
opaque sigil
formal marsh
#

i love the concept of it mimicking hornet and.. having wings
but the fight is just eugh

cerulean moat
#

The only part of p5 that's rng is absrad

#

And that's the last boss so it's ever worse

formal marsh
#

its vengefly king but stronger

wheat sail
#

The Brothers of Battle walk in (tiny mantises)

astral rover
formal marsh
#

which, tbh, p5 could have gotten away with an infected vengefly king instead of having 2 vengefly kings at once

fiery burrow
#

Well the entire game is just a dice roll if you rely on RNG instead of skill

#

Thats not a game problem

wheat sail
#

the game should have balance updates like league of legnds

opaque sigil
#

Abstracting purely skill based things into rng somehow is very strange

astral rover
# opaque sigil No? There’s no boss that’s rng

I mean more in that you can only get so good at each bossfight - there will always be a chance that you lose to each one no matter how hard you practice. And with so many bossfights, you lose P5 a lot

formal marsh
#

balance update: shamans stone to 4

#

(i would sacrifice grubsong)

cerulean moat
#

Yeah I beat the majority of the bosses in raidsnt before p5 so they were all a cakewalk

opaque sigil
cerulean moat
#

Less health and not oneshot

opaque sigil
#

90% of bosses in p5 are toothless in the first place

cerulean moat
#

It's just the ones that aren't are at the very end

formal marsh
#

p5 would be dramatically more difficuld for me if the failed champion cheese didnt exist

astral rover
formal marsh
#

i would honestly lose every run to it or by starting nkg with low masks

cerulean moat
#

I wonder if ss will have a godhome sort of thing

astral rover
cerulean moat
#

Hope it does bosses are my favorite part

#

If not dlc

astral rover
#

there should at least be a way to refight bosses

wheat sail
#

Maybe a hall of gods with creative boss variants instead of ultra long pantheons

formal marsh
#

would you want a fishing minigame in silks9ng

#

i would

fiery burrow
#

Maybe if it was creative enough

cerulean moat
#

Winged nosk is the most creative but somehow the worst variant, other than grey prince

fiery burrow
#

HK didn't really have minigames

formal marsh
#

no creativity. the same template used on every game

fleet temple
#

I think there's gonna be a hall of gods type way to refight them but I doubt they'd do pantheons again
and if they do they should be 100% optional

astral rover
cerulean moat
#

Ss has a quest system

#

Hopefully they aren't filler content

fiery burrow
astral rover
#

quest system in a metroidvania has always seemed interesting since I saw it

#

really seems to have potential

wheat sail
#

I wouldn't mind fishing being simple since I don't wanna have to enter a battle against a small tuna every time I find one

unborn moat
fleet temple
cerulean moat
#

The first time I did p5 and all three mantises stood up was a highlight for me

#

Thought it would be super difficult but beat it 1st try

wheat sail
#

4 oblobbles

#

@grave snow

stoic sigil
#

6 Oblobbles

fiery burrow
#

can I have an oblovle too?

cerulean moat
#

After the sisters of battle reveal i was excited for more variants and then I got winged nosk

unborn moat

#

Vengefly and nosk had a baby

stoic sigil
#

Just learned Fortnite collabed with Lethal Company

balmy grotto
#

when Amogus collab

wheat sail
#

Chun li in lethal company

stoic sigil
#

Honestly, learning this, I could see a Silksong x Fortnite

stoic sigil
unborn moat
#

Now it's time to ask Mossbag if he can make a theory video about if Vengefly King and Nosk can have babies

cerulean moat
#

Nosk's obnoxious rng spray attacks and vengefly's boring summon and dive attacks was a recipe for disaster

stoic sigil
#

They did that already

high hedge
#

Oh yeah Amogus backpacks

balmy grotto
wheat sail
#

Radiant bosses who have the orange infection should have it turned white to show the radiances influence

stoic sigil
#

If Silksong is a hit I can definitely see a Silksong collab

cerulean moat
#

Raidant absolute radiance is the worst thing I have ever experienced in my life

#

I had just recovered from markoth radiant

wheat sail
#

I'd try the radiant bosses if they had achievements

#

No point if I can't show off 🤷‍♀️

cerulean moat
#

All I GOT was JOURNAL ENTRY AND A STATUE

wheat sail
#

When I realize path of pain just gives an item 🧍‍♀️

cerulean moat
#

Tbh having that be an achievement wouldn't be fair

#

It would force people who wanted to platinum the game to suffer

#

Path of pain isn't difficult enough to not have an achievement

wheat sail
#

I'd argue it'd make platting it more prestigious to those that care about that stuff

cerulean moat
#

I play on switch and the achievements stay on the game

#

I can't show them off so I makes no difference if it's an achievement or a journal entry

#

I still did it for completion

#

Seeing the whole list of bosses have the radiant symbol made me feel like a god

wheat sail
cerulean moat
#

I'm okay with that, I personally didn't see the need to show it off

fleet temple
#

I do

I tried to all binding p5 but I just couldnt

#

Had to settle for one at a time

violet path
#

do you guys like xxxtenctacion

fleet temple
#

I had the superstition that beating p5ab would give me silksong
I was also going through my edgy "TC bad" phase so that's why I cheated

cerulean moat
#

Now how did that work out

#

Did you get the release date

fiery burrow
#

TC cries everytime someone cheats in P5

fleet temple
#

good, they deserve it, they didn't give me the game I didn't pay for

fiery burrow
#

I couldn't even think of what hardships they'd face if I cheated R5

is it bad that I haven't beaten regular pantheon 5 yet?

Isn't the dlc cheaper if you buy it with the game as a bundle or something

cunning geode

maybe

#

that doesn’t make sense though

#

the dlc doesn’t work without the base game

hollow terrace
#

Probably but like if you don’t like the base game or any of the dark souls games

trim estuary
#

This is $80 and includes both right

cunning geode
#

hm

#

maybe you’re right

violet path
trim estuary

Whereas base game is $60 and DLC is $40

100 dollar game… that really recontextualizes it

@cunning geode so Elden ring is Berserk open world

Miyazaki said he is yet to create his ideal RPG

cunning geode
#

it should be all one big swamp

sacred stratus
#

Bro just cooked a 5 course meal of 2 Michelin stars and he ain’t satisfied

#

At this point the owners of Berserk should let Miyazaki make a Berserk game

#

Bro is cooking so hard that Bandai Namco just gave him the studio and told him to do whatever the fuck he wants with it

cunning geode
#

and all this because they wanted a competitor to Oblivion

sacred stratus
#

Bloodborne is so peak I want to finish the game

hollow terrace
#

I think the ideal rpg aspect is a tongue in cheek joke, like it’s unreachable because he can’t experience that full new experience of playing it

#

Since he’ll have to developed it

sacred stratus
#

I mean yeah he was inspired by his childhood experiences of liking western fantasy but not having fluent English to understand everything

#

If he makes the lore then he knows it

coarse leaf
#

oh hey frostyyy

sacred stratus
#

Hi Grev how you doing?

coarse leaf
#

Pretty good

#

Tired, but good

grand ferry
#

frosty have u used wordpress before

sacred stratus
#

Wordpress?

#

What’s that?

grand ferry
#

its like webdev but u dont need to code

sacred stratus
#

So it’s like a website where you create web apps using descriptions and visual designs?

#

No never used such a thing and let me tell you something:

sacred stratus
#

The only people who are afraid of that thing are non developers

#

Let me explain:

#

If developing a website was this easy and didn’t require humans then web develop wouldn’t be one of the most requested jobs in the world

stoic sigil
#

Team CCherry needs to STOP logging into KICKSTARTER they are being rude to THEIR FANS by TAUNTING us with their PRESENCE.

sacred stratus
#

In reality this website is only good for the most basic of websites

#

Let me tell you the app I’m developing for is not that complex compared to the others my team handles and it still needs 4 devs

#

The whole AI thing falls apart the moment you introduce server side and logic

sacred stratus
sacred stratus
#

It’s good for maybe stuff like personal pages or advertisement

#

Because no logic required

#

TLDR: people fear AI more than they should

coarse leaf
#

i feel like i've seen wordpress being used mainly for blogs or such

sacred stratus
#

Also how would an AI handle changes in client’s vision?

#

Can an AI express opinions about what is good and what is bad regarding development?

grand ferry
#

i didnt know they use AI to build their sites uhh

cerulean sable
#

"AI will take dev's jobs with how fast it writes code"

sacred stratus
#

Speed =/= quality

#

Learned that the hard way

cerulean sable
#

and right now, 3 years into my job i realized from me and my colleages 80% of dev work tends to NOT write shit but rather fix archaic bullshit

flat remnant
cerulean sable
#

yeah good luck telling an AI to fix this obscure bug caused by an implementation from 17 years ago by a developer whos no longer working on the company

#

on a proprietary language too

sacred stratus
cerulean sable
#

ofc, but in general in my country, we tend to be heavily into business logic stuff

#

not something you can automate as easily

cerulean sable
#

TRUE

sacred stratus
#

I saw the code for TF2 (bits of it) and holy fuck how did some of them get approved

cerulean sable
#

i remember asking my friend whos a lot more senior than me
and me telling him about my anxiety not being able to write as much code as i thought

his only reply was "dude, everyone i literally know barely writes code either"

sacred stratus
#

The game is pretty much a ticking timebomb

cerulean sable
#

something something

#

you can either have quality code or a good deadline
most of the time there is no good deadline

sacred stratus
cerulean sable
#

i learned i will never be a god dev
i also learned i dont have to, i just need to be decent enough not to get fired feelspkman

sacred stratus
#

I want to be a good dev. If I want to command people some day I need to have lots of work experience, skill and trust from my coworkers

cerulean sable
#

yeah but i learned a lot that being a good dev isnt just ya know being a code god

#

soft skills if not plays a huge majority to my work more than i originally expected

#

being able to do direct communication to clients for example is a big exp and managing their expectations, cuz before my expectation was "you can be a social recluse that pumps up tickets like no tomorrow" type of dev

hey guys

unborn dome
# cerulean sable on a proprietary language too

that's the trick
you make your own language for the company or make your code as messy as possible
then you can't be fired as you're the only one who actually knows how to manage everything
helps a lot with job security

cerulean sable
#

im kinda in that position actually

#

not that they cant hire a new guy, but they cant afford a new dev with my work and they know having to transition another guy into my position is going to be messy

#

Why Jinn, a NPC which substitutes Jiji in Steel Soul, is similiar to some of the enemies seen in the 2019 Silksong trailer?

cerulean sable
#

because we assume she knows void = steel assassin guys in the trailer has affinity to the void

#

connection is jinn senses the Knight's void and is aware of the PK's involvement

#

then one of Sharpe's attack involves him flinging his nose like an abyss tendrill

I am very curious about the steel people's involvement in ss

Apparently yes

What does this mean tho?

Nothing

lament coyote
#

Nothing honestly

sage glade
#

It means people are in too deep

lament coyote
#

It means my hand fucking hurts because I was hitting my head with it too much

unborn moat
fleet temple
#

It's because when you go for so long without any sign of life, the slightest deviation from the norm is given attention

dull tide
sage glade
#

It should no longer count as a deviation

#

They logged in like 10 times this month

fleet temple
#

I'd the say the combined logins this month amount to one whole deviation
but it really doesn't matter

#

Why did they suddenly start logging in recently?
Why did they support that one indie game?
idk they probably just wanted to

unborn moat
#

This is going to generate an incredible amount of copium anyway

fleet temple
#

they just decided to login to kickstarter one day

sage glade
#

How dare

the elden ring dlc is sucking so much out of my GPU discord struggles loading images

I see the kickstarter login, but I don’t think people are being hyped enough about it.
I know it’s been long, but when was the last time team cherry logged into their kickstarter 4 times in the same month?

unborn moat
naive pier
#

I understand that, but it still has to mean something, I was talking about the people who were saying it was over

#

I didn’t mean everyone

wild plinth
#

I dont think it means anything

naive pier
#

Okay, I know, just saying I think it might be more than a coincidence

wild plinth
#

The only thing i could see is that they may have a little more free time by now

fleet temple
#

At most it's a little bit weird if even that

jade canopy
fleet temple
#

To be fair I wouldn't say it is completely unnoteworthy for a team that has previously gone years without using a site suddenly becoming increasingly active in the span of a few months
It's just we can't really extrapolate anything from it

#

I realise I basically just repeated what you said

sage glade
#

No worries, they basically repeated someone else

#

Nothing in this channel can be original anymore

wooden turret
#

Kickstarter is set to open automatically on Ari's work PC on the startup, so that means he worked on Silksong 4 days this month! And once in May etc. That's why it's taking so long

#

Or they are just forgetting what game they're working at at this point and need to remind themselves by logging to their Kickstarter

#

"ah! Silksong this is!"

unborn moat
#

"Where Silksong Team Cherry"
"What's Silksong?"

wooden turret
#

by the way, isn't this one of the longest times when there was no contact from Leth on discord?

#

that's pretty weird for him to go all silent in such hyped month with lot of stuff happening (logins, showcases etc)

open temple
#

I'm assuming this is click bait since there's no new announcements on here and it'll be the twitter update from last year lol

unborn moat
#

Basically, it's the usual clickbait title

open temple
#

Just saw the title then came here to check the announcements lol

fleet temple
#

Unless it's graig saying they're not in Dev hell and this news article is just late

#

Why does TC keep logging in

unborn moat
#

Or there is actually something happening or they are just trolling us. OR BOTH

cerulean moat
#

They haven't logged in for month now of sudden they log in every couple days

nimble radish
#

they backed a kickstarter recently

#

they're checking for updates
like "these devs better give us some info"

unborn moat
#

Let's hope they drop some info during the next Nintendo Direct it this means something 🤞

Good morning

Hi

sacred stratus
#

Kirb please save me from the low IQ here

#

I need brain food

opaque sigil
#

Why are people now pretending we don’t know for a fact that tc has used kickstarter just to look at another project

cerulean moat
#

Because silksong used to be dlc the updates are posted on hollow knight kickstarter

#

And because of that the backers will still get a free copy

sacred stratus
#

This is a really really long stretch

Nope you need a slap of reality. Go play Elden ring

oh, yeah, I knew about that I thought you meant they commented on a different game

#

ah wait I see what you mean now

opaque sigil

the point is that why they logged in is not a mystery that needs explaining

fleet temple
#

Yeah

#

Well hey I'm interested in this game now if TC thought it was worth commenting on

sacred stratus
runic atlas
#

Imagine not stuffing your games full of artificial difficulty

sacred stratus
#

elden ring is pretty fair aside from a few areas

wheat sail
grand ferry
grand ferry
wheat sail
#

I actually slept for once..

sacred stratus
#

here is a hot take: dark souls is not the super difficult game people pretend it is. This reputation imo ruined the industry

grand ferry
sacred stratus
#

it's challenging yeah and there is some bullshit but a lot of it stems from the game being rushed and old

#

but in terms of execution?

#

not really difficult in base game

#

DLC is harder but that's just every souls DLC

runic atlas
runic atlas
fleet temple
#

I think the sentiment comes from the fact that you're kinda just thrown into the deep end at the very beginning
so new players definitely struggle a lot but once you figure out how the game works it's not that bad

lament lotus
#

runic atlas
sacred stratus
wheat sail
#

Dark souls just takes em back to when game devs just threw you into that deep end instead of having an in depth tutorial that tells you exactly how to do everything and hand holds through everything

sacred stratus
#

also not gonna sugarcoat it: "golden halberd stunlock"

runic atlas
runic atlas
sacred stratus
#

or even a boss

runic atlas

sacred stratus
#

I doubt any of them harder than Malenia

runic atlas
#

I think it was a boss later on I don't remember the name and I wouldn't say it for spoilers

sacred stratus
#

as long as the attack is telegraphed and reasonable to dodge I'm fine with one shots

runic atlas
#

And the suggestion to the fact it oneshot people wasn't even "get more health" but "you asked for a harder boss you get a harder boss"

formal kindle
#

back here after some time, any news ?? updates??

obsidian juniper
sacred stratus
#

well elden ring damage is quite high but even so bosses are very manageable because the player has more tools

runic atlas
wheat sail
formal kindle
#

boring

wheat sail
#

All for nothing since team cherry ain't here shermasmirk

runic atlas
formal kindle
#

I would be happy to receive news, at least something like within this time

wheat sail
#

Omniimpotent amirite

sacred stratus
# obsidian juniper Ruined in what sense?im lowkey curious about this

because the industry started praising the difficulty instead of what made dark souls so good imoo (the story, gameplay mix)
the industry learned the wrong lesson and now every souls like is trying to be difficult and "just like dark souls" instead of having gripping world design

sacred stratus
runic atlas
#

That's how it got told as

#

But we probably shouldn't discuss parts of the game neither of us played

sacred stratus
#

exaggaration obviously. if a boss one shots a player with good defenses on every hit then that boss would have never gotten past testing phase

#

they probably meant later bosses deal a lot of damage which... no shit sherlock

obsidian juniper
sacred stratus
#

base game bosses also deal absurd damage in the endgame

#

Malenia one shots you with her grab and long distance stab (or nearly one shots you) even with good defenses

runic atlas
#

My favorite souls is Sekiro which I'd argue is the most fair one so maybe that's where my dislike of the other souls comes from

weak nebula
runic atlas
#

Like if it's not every attack it's fine if they are well telegraphed

sacred stratus
sacred stratus
#

sekiro was my first fromsoft game

runic atlas
#

Sekiro is actually top ten games ever because 3 of the first 6 bosses are monkeys

sacred stratus
#

I will say that Sekiro is fine with it's insane damage because the gameplay is simpler imo at least

runic atlas
#

Should've just parried

steel bloom
#

sekiro is the best fromsoftware game

sacred stratus
#

bloodobrne so far imo. didn't even finish the game but holy fuck it's good

steel bloom
#

yeah for me bloodborne is second, alongside DS3 and elden ring

runic atlas
#

I do need to play Bloodborne

obsidian juniper
#

@sacred stratus Now that i think about it there Is an argument to be Said that dark souls got praised for its difficulty because of the allready existing tendencies of the industry
Early gaming was often considered on terms of Challenge and competition,i dont feel that dark souls created that mindset but simply got picked up as the representative of this preexisting way of viewing videogames

Keep it up guys!

#sk-discussion is allowed to be off topic due to the game not being out yet, and the amount of times that topics have been exhausted for it. However, if you have a topic that you'd like to discuss, say it and the channel should follow suit.

Simply incorrect

I can’t believe everyone has been brainwashed into this line of thinking

it’s so sad!

sacred stratus

but if you do like rpgs ni no kuni wrath of the white witch and revenant kingdom are both 85% off feelspkman

how so?

wild plinth
#

Play breath of fire 3 feelspkman

opaque sigil
#

mh is very much its own genre

sacred stratus
#

yes and it's a true RPG imo. what is missing exactly?

#

it has it's own subgenre

#

but it's very much an RPG

opaque sigil
#

'rpg' is a vacuous term on its own

#

almost any single player game can be said to fit in

sacred stratus
#

it means "role playing game". you role play as a character that you build
both in terms of look and playstyle but actual in game build

wild plinth
#

For me rpg is just a game where you pick a role

fringe zephyr
#

true!

opaque sigil
sacred stratus
#

well in mh you don't pick a role in the traditional sense of tank, DPS or healer but rather pick a weapon which dictates how the entire combat workds

wild plinth
#

I'd say so too

fringe zephyr
#

cod is a rpg because you can choose what to use in your loadout!

#

This can not be refuted otherwise

opaque sigil
#

rpg emerged as a term pretty early for video games and stuck around as the medium exploded outwards in diversity as an immensely wide net to the point where it's not really meaningful as a genre

sacred stratus
#

I still think MH is an RPG a lot more than smt like god of war which some people now label as an RPG

heavy mason
#

It’s also like leveling up

#

And having a bunch of companions

#

You can change in the game

opaque sigil
#

there's not going to be any single trait of rpgs that's universal

#

other than like
being a game

#

but in general genres don't have strict definitions they're more a matter of resemblance which is subjective

sacred stratus
#

I still consider MH as an RPG

opaque sigil
#

but because like half the industry fall under that umbrella of rpg it's not really saying anything

#

it's not that it's untrue it's just that mh is very unique

#

and especially for a game that basically spawned its own genre it's a bit underselling it to just call it an rpg feelspkman

silk zodiac

I should play that game rn

wheat sail
#

owie ow ow

unborn moat

#

my friend just let me borrow the M&L games i didn’t have which was inside story remaster and paper jam

#

how much was it on amazon

unborn moat
silk zodiac
#

ig that’s not too bad? Would it not have been better to just mod your DS or do people just mod their 3DS

#

I haven’t done either (yet)

#

also I recommend emulating the other M&L games if you haven’t played them (maybe except paper jam tho since i heard that one isn’t as good as the rest)

sage glade
#

did you just say emulation

#

that's it i'm telling nintendo

unborn moat
silk zodiac
silk zodiac
#

but i get you

unborn moat
#

I get the whole point of pirating old nintendo games as a form of protest against their policies, but I don't really think it's the right solution to the problem

opaque sigil
#

emulating old nintendo games doesn't affect them at all

#

really piracy in general doesn't affect devs but people like to make up excuses for why they're being oh so righteous

#

but for games that can't be bought from the devs anymore there's not really an issue regardless

unborn moat
#

I see, thanks for the information, I really don't know much about this topic honestly

silk zodiac
#

nintendo when they purposefully make it difficult/impossible to buy and play their old games; “no don’t emulate and play them!!! that’s cheating!!”

opaque sigil
#

they're not making it purposefully hard?

#

idk why people try to twist eventually no longer manufacturing or supporting outdated hardware as malicious

#

nintendo was never going to make gbas forever

#

it ain't that deep

silk zodiac
opaque sigil
#

for like decade old consoles

lament lotus
#

goung

silk zodiac
#

yeah but they still did it, ik they wouldn’t be up forever but nintendo sure has a fuck ton of money and people who still have those consoles would be willing to pay

#

they could very well kept those eshops up is all i’m saying

opaque sigil
#

no matter how long they did people would say the same shit

silk zodiac
#

shrue ig

opaque sigil
#

and framing that as their purpose is just laughably absurd

silk zodiac
#

i still think eshops could have been kept up longer is all i’m saying anyway

opaque sigil
#

it was up for a very long time

#

it would always be possible to keep it up longer

jade canopy
#

There is a real issue with how games are preserved to be fair
Like the fact that game release e shops that will close, consoles that will age and become rare is an issue to their availability
And emulation is the perfect solution though sadly it is in a sort of legal limbo which sucks

opaque sigil
#

it's pretty clear why they shut it down when they did

opaque sigil
jade canopy
#

Well it is a genuine use for it
And I think many people would be fine to buy, legally, roms to emulate

#

Like right now, if you want to play some old N64 game which isn’t popular enough to be on the switch rereleases and such, emulation, and piracy kinda, is your only choice

#

Which sucks

silk zodiac
#

I’ll still have the opinion it could have been up even a bit longer but I get what you’re saying too though. Also isn’t the whole thing about Nintendo sucking because they take down fan projects and emulators too? I know they can legally take down those sites for roms as well but still, sucks how it can be harder to play old games not available anymore if it’s because nintendo takes down sites like that. It’s not impossible ofc, just possibly harder for a lot of people.

jade canopy
#

Taking down emulator isn’t really true

#

Like the whole switch emulator thing is slightly different

opaque sigil
#

they took down yuzu because the yuzu devs had some pretty gross misconduct in terms of actually directing people to keys and shit

silk zodiac
#

Yeah i just heard about citrus or something being taken down

opaque sigil
#

and monetized it

silk zodiac
#

maybe i’m wrong lol

unborn dome
#

torrenting exists, it’s impossible to make stuff fully disappear

silk zodiac
#

yeah that one

opaque sigil
#

citra afaik didn't have to get taken down but it had the same devs as yuzu

silk zodiac
#

oh feelspkman that explains it then

opaque sigil
#

and a lot of rom sites in addition to having old games you can't buy have newer games which you still can

silk zodiac
