[wide quartz]

yoooooooooooooooo

one of the first things i saw in chat when i started playing was "i caught a whale"

thats been my goal ever since

[wheat sail]

looks funny when you put it in your pocket

[wide quartz]

you probably eat most of it

and then regurgitate

[wheat sail]

bruh it dont even fit in the aquarium

[wide quartz]

lmao

[wide quartz]

have you caught any meteors yet

[wheat sail]

no

ive been lookin with my metal detector

[wide quartz]

you get a cool fish from them

one landed in the water earlier and while i was admiring it with jumpy some noob stole it :(

[wheat sail]

oh i missed a fish that needed you to mash 88

[wide quartz]

i got literally 5 100+'s in a row and managed to get it

[wheat sail]

my power was 3 so..

[wide quartz]

[wheat sail]

gimme a glistening huge whale

[wide quartz]

is it lake or sea

[wheat sail]

got the whale from the sea

[wide quartz]

alright

[runic atlas]

I still haven't caught a whale, only a shining whale

[cunning geode]

yeah i’m at a loss that may have been someone else

[runic atlas]

You gotta tell me when you hop on dude

I need to play more of the game

[wide quartz]

[runic atlas]

Like not now cause I'm fucking dying inside

[runic atlas]

No

[wide quartz]

[runic atlas]

Sick

[wheat sail]

yoink

[wide quartz]

niceee

[runic atlas]

Lmao

[wide quartz]

me and my friend have an unspoken relationship of getting drunk and fishing

[flat remnant]

what's a webfishing

[wide quartz]

tis game about getting drippy and catching fish too heavy too carry

[strange night]

I should get drunk and go fishing

[warped rock]

Yes

[strange night]

Why doesn't this server have a venting channel.... I need somewhere to complain about how great my life is and manipulate others

Add a politics thread too! Highly necessary

[wheat sail]

i gotta vent about how athletic cute and intelligent ia m

[fiery burrow]

venting channel would be great

[shell yacht]

right next to the untethered meme and music channel

[fiery burrow]

who better to take advice from than a bunch of emotionally unstable teenagers online

[wheat sail]

#therapy channel

and you can give therapy with teh therapist role

[fiery burrow]

whats wrong with a music channel though

Would be peak

[wide quartz]

ill have you know im actually an emotionally unstable teenager and i find this offensive

[lilac gyro]

Proof

[wheat sail]

https://tenor.com/view/mike-ehrmantraut-kim-wexler-better-call-saul-shoulder-kiss-shoulder-bite-gif-26491095

[strange night]

I'll have you know I'm an emotionally unstable teenager and I purposefully give bad advice so the two are actually completely unrelated

[uncut citrus]

NOT THE GIF

[strange night]

Literally me

[wheat sail]

too much text

[fiery burrow]

yeah i'll take some mediocre breakcore

[flat remnant]

powder i don't remember who posted it but i remember somebody linked this older somber japanese rock song with a repeating baseline i'm trying to find it

[runic atlas]

Laughpengu

[flat remnant]

i thought either you or wombat posted it

[shell yacht]

i dont post or click on many music links here, spotify mobile doesnt let me preview music

so prob wombat

[flat remnant]

it was a youtube link

[fiery burrow]

Sometimes I amaze even myself with my witty clever jokes and my sarcasm with underlying complex social commentary

[flat remnant]

wombat doesn't remember

[runic atlas]

Mood

[flat remnant]

youtube with adblocker is an objectively superior way to listen to music

[runic atlas]

Ok but like you just killed a person and you made a troll face

[fiery burrow]

Ganondorf is just based

[pine lotus]

true

[fiery burrow]

Dude shoulder pressed the entirety of hyrule castle

[pine lotus]

stupid spotify keeps redirecting me

[shell yacht]

hmmm, youtube link it coulda been me, but last thing i remember sharing was an upbeat op and ed to Runaway Samurai

[wooden echo]

I hope SS does end up being a DLC for hollow knight
not as is in its just DLC
more so the way all the Lisa games are one application with multiple games inside it

[flat remnant]

like shadow generations..

[wooden echo]

plus it would allow for cool stuff like cross game continuity based world building

like if you spared the nailsmith you get an easter egg

wait no, cause multiple save files

...

fuck

still would be cool ig

[opaque sigil]

that's not the direction they're going

[wooden echo]

I know

I would say "I can dream" but

dream no more

(hehe... im not funny)

[fiery burrow]

Do they know

[wooden echo]

know what?

[flat remnant]

if you spare the nailsmith he makes out sloppy-style with elderbug

very beautiful cutscene that sadly only 0.1% of players see

[wooden echo]

I though he just moved in the the painter guy

[fiery burrow]

yeah there's an easter egg where they become room mates

[pine lotus]

can you like
have no voice to cry suffering rq
(shut the fuck up)

[wooden echo]

aaaand now im thinking of the three brothers modded bossfight
god, that was a work of art (no pun intended)

[runic atlas]

He just that cool

[fiery burrow]

Best ganondorf tbh

||He gets a katana and then pulls out the "This isn't even my final form" after beating Link up with his own tactics||

WW Ganondorf is a close second

[opaque sigil]

TP Ganondorf dying on his feet went hard

[fiery burrow]

His battle is dope too

And design

[opaque sigil]

Love that he just kept the sword

Which the sages used to try to execute him

[knotty solar]

loved the boss meter but the dragon part could have been done better tbh

[opaque sigil]

The second part is a fantastic cutscene boss

[fiery burrow]

And the wound becomes a massive weakspot wolf link has to attack in dark beast ganon

[runic atlas]

Honestly

[opaque sigil]

Yeah

[runic atlas]

He's peak for 1 reason

||phase 2 healthbar||

Nintendo developers unironically need an award for that

I laughed out loud when I saw it

[opaque sigil]

That was fun but honestly not as impactful as ||getting flurry rushed||

[runic atlas]

Oh yeah

[fiery burrow]

its everything dark beast ganon in BOTW should've been

[opaque sigil]

And then it gets to a point where ||he flurry rushes your flurry rushes||

That’s peak

[fiery burrow]

Why didn't ganondorf mikiri counter Link. Is he stupid?

[opaque sigil]

Yeah it seems like a lot of criticisms of it just… don’t really get what it is

It’s a victory lap it’s not supposed to be hard

It’s cinematic as hell and ||fighting alongside Zelda is great||

[fiery burrow]

I wish TOTK bosses in general were like that

Or Colgera.

[opaque sigil]

Colgera is cool

[runic atlas]

I wish Mucktorok was a good boss

[opaque sigil]

That one’s bad yeah

[runic atlas]

Rewards are shit too

[opaque sigil]

Especially bad during subsequent encounters with no low gravity imo

[runic atlas]

The curse of the water level

[fiery burrow]

I wasn't a huge fan of Gohma

[opaque sigil]

At least flux constructs are dope

[opaque sigil]

I thought looping around the room to hit it on the ceiling was fun

[runic atlas]

I agree

[runic atlas]

I really wish the sky islands were so awkward

[opaque sigil]

imo the sky islands are overhated

Like yeah they’re not what people wanted but for the role they actually play they’re fine

[runic atlas]

No it's like

I don't hate them

They just kinda feel

Underwhelming?

[fiery burrow]

I don't like the copy paste get the crystal ones

[opaque sigil]

They are sort of a weird highway system in practice

[fiery burrow]

But like, dungeon leadups are great as is the light puzzle one and the sky diving ones

[opaque sigil]

I do find bouncing from checkpoint to checkpoint using the stuff around enjoyable enough

And some fun chests, like the ones that need you to cut down trees to drain water

[runic atlas]

But like idk

I feel like rather than have depths and sky islands they should've been merged

[opaque sigil]

Nah

[runic atlas]

It's just they both feel kinda empty

Like bread with not enough butter

[opaque sigil]

Sky islands are more dense than the overworld and the depths is pretty replete with points of interest including a bunch of unique exploration rewards

Depths feel more empty because you spend a lot of time fumbling in the dark

[runic atlas]

Idk I just kinda wished they felt like Overworld 2

Like an Overworld but again

And like if you sum them up, yeah

[fiery burrow]

I'd prefer they just had a new map

[runic atlas]

But they're on opposite parts of the world

[runic atlas]

Oh I mean yeah but like

It's still a sequel so

Only so much I could pretend

[ionic arch]

chat I just got a huge halloween scare

[opaque sigil]

Nah reusing botw’s map actually was pretty solid

[runic atlas]

Taxes???

[ionic arch]

apparently I predate the corn maze

[ionic arch]

I mean yes but that was a while back

[fiery burrow]

It works yeah

[runic atlas]

I don't hate that they used the old map

Just believe it would've been better with a new one

More like Skyward Sword's Sky

[fiery burrow]

See what they should've done is had time travel and you explore old hyrule with rauru as a companion

[ionic arch]

honestly same, I thought I wouldn't mind

but minded more than I thought

[fiery burrow]

And its all old school zelda

[opaque sigil]

Skyward sword’s sky was emptier than totk’s

[shell yacht]

HUH

[runic atlas]

And Link using the constructs to move between em

[runic atlas]

I meant the feel, of course

[shell yacht]

how does anyone online in 2024 predate the cornmaze

[runic atlas]

Not the actual way it was done lol

[ionic arch]

apparently the first truly recorded cornmaze wasn't until 1993

[runic atlas]

Actually yeah

[ionic arch]

which is shocking to me

[runic atlas]

YOU'RE OLDER THAN ZAL???

[ionic arch]

I thought they were always here

they're so deeply human

[opaque sigil]

Would’ve been cool

[fiery burrow]

dawg get to the nursing home

[shell yacht]

I DOGED A BULLET BY 4 MONTHS

[ionic arch]

LMAO that's hilarious

[ionic arch]

like that fucked up little dog or

[runic atlas]

You're as old as Zal??

[shell yacht]

im younger than Zal

[runic atlas]

Isn't Zal 30?

[wheat sail]

40 or something

[shell yacht]

yeah 3 years ago

im 30

[runic atlas]

What the fuck

[fiery burrow]

hi 30

[shell yacht]

and lmao @ionic arch youre old

[ionic arch]

can't believe I'm ancient by silk standards

[runic atlas]

Didn't know Zal was decrepit

[ionic arch]

apparently!

[fiery burrow]

Zal would probably yell at me to get off his lawn

Then complain about his back

[runic atlas]

Motherfucker Zal would be 6 feet under the lawn

[shell yacht]

i wss doing this at 14

[runic atlas]

Old inside, just like me fr

(my body hurts more than that of an old grandma)

[shell yacht]

some rednecks cut thru my yard to get home faster and kept spooking my dogs

[ionic arch]

I'm a withered corpse nurturing the roses I guess

[runic atlas]

How old are you

[wheat sail]

21

[shell yacht]

54 apparently

[broken tartan]

Wait why did the bullet take 4 months to arrive

[ionic arch]

shoulda kept them on their toes by shouting "get off my dog"

[shell yacht]

leap year shenanigans

[runic atlas]

That's years not months

Stoobid

[shell yacht]

i just shot at them once like a true southerner (bb gun)

[ionic arch]

double threes, blight & breeze

[runic atlas]

You're as old as Zal

Wait

Zal's alt???

[broken tartan]

Wait i thought zal was an ancient one?

[shell yacht]

have you seen 3 amigos

@ fuck

[runic atlas]

I don't speak mariachi

[broken tartan]

I do speak taco though

[ionic arch]

Zal said I was too annoying to be old and then named me FUCK

[wheat sail]

whooaa i dont think thats true

[ionic arch]

closest I can get to an interesting "wizard's curse" or some shit lmao

it is in fact true

[broken tartan]

Could be worse, at least he didnt turn you into a frog

[ionic arch]

yeah no I'm not mad, being named FUCK frankly suits me

feels honest

[runic atlas]

Can you not change it?

[wheat sail]

her name is fuck now

[shell yacht]

nobodies names are locked

[wide quartz]

one of the greatest tragedys of all time (WARNING: EMOTIONAL)

[runic atlas]

Tbh you should lock names of certain people for fun

Like just

Change them

And lock the name of the single specific person

[shell yacht]

wed need to make a role for that

its a perm i think

[runic atlas]

What are you waiting for them

[shell yacht]

wait no

[runic atlas]

Aren't there individual user perms?

[shell yacht]

its serverwide, either nicknames can be altered or they cant, its an on off switch iirc

been uhh

[runic atlas]

Awww

[shell yacht]

more than 5 years since i touched that setting

[runic atlas]

Well just threaten the person with a warn if they change it back then

[tawdry valley]

Just add the no nick perm to newknights

[runic atlas]

Abuse mod powers, that's what I'd do

[ionic arch]

I think being bestowed a name is an honor

[tawdry valley]

Second class citizens more than they are already

[runic atlas]

Slime Isekai be like

(it's arguably a mid anime which none of you watched I think)

[runic atlas]

Yeah I wish I was bestowed a name

Water tried once but failed iirc

[fiery burrow]

Isekai and mid are synonyms

[runic atlas]

Cause I was just that strong

[runic atlas]

@rocky berry is rezero mid?

[fiery burrow]

I was granted the title Omorilover29

[runic atlas]

Brutal

[fiery burrow]

and iloverainworld

[runic atlas]

Get well soon

(< named herself after Aubrey from Omori)

[finite flax]

[runic atlas]

Spirited away is peak I'll admit

[runic atlas]

I'm about to burst out laughing tbh

[open narwhal]

MIDited away

[runic atlas]

Oh yeah

True

Star what's your opinion on

The upcoming US president election

[open narwhal]

back to studying gn chat

[ionic arch]

How Do You Live? (based)

aka Boy & the Heron

you give me a lesbian gutting a fish and you win me over forever

[tawdry valley]

Idk it’s not enough of an isekai

[runic atlas]

Still can't spell the Italian word for Heron

[tawdry valley]

Technically more of a time travel movie right

[runic atlas]

Ye

[ionic arch]

uh... teach a they to fish... nvm idk where this is going

[fiery burrow]

why can't we all get along

[ionic arch]

disagree

[tawdry valley]

So you DO only have bad opinions

[runic atlas]

Airone

[ionic arch]

very much an isekai

[tawdry valley]

It’s not NOT an isekai

[runic atlas]

I can't remember if it is Airone or Arione

[ionic arch]

just a world where multiple times can go

[fiery burrow]

9 is a good movie

[tawdry valley]

Define good

[fiery burrow]

No

[runic atlas]

9?

[tawdry valley]

It ate shit at the box office and didn’t really have a target audience

[ionic arch]

Is that Elijah Wood Sackboy Movie?

[warped rock]

good means above 5

[strange night]

Elijah wood is The Guy

[tawdry valley]

It’s ideas are interesting but it’s not a movie worthy of praise besides the uniqueness of its ideas, and its execution of certain ideas

[strange night]

https://tenor.com/view/guy-im-the-guy-spy-kids-the-guy-gif-24510920

[runic atlas]

6 means passable

Good is 7 and above

[tawdry valley]

https://tenor.com/view/nine-shane-acker-animation-post-apocalyptic-gif-14665170

[runic atlas]

Good is better than passable

[fiery burrow]

Elijah Wood would be a nobody without Over the Garden Wall

[tawdry valley]

I don’t call food that’s edible and nutritious good

[ionic arch]

mertoid.........

[strange night]

Elijah Wood would be nobody without spykids 3

[fiery burrow]

Bad faith

[warped rock]

who

[runic atlas]

Merde...

[ionic arch]

counterpoint:

Dirk Gently is simultaneously cringe and based and he gets to scream "fuck" a lot in it

[tawdry valley]

It’s not surprising that the movie isn’t popular is all

[ionic arch]

haha ""sack of bluh"" or whatever

[runic atlas]

SACK OF BLUH

IM DYING

[tawdry valley]

It didn’t go for horror, it didn’t dig too deep into the lore, it wasn’t a good way to make a family friendly adventure

[runic atlas]

😭

[ionic arch]

dracula in a bag I guess

[fiery burrow]

https://tenor.com/view/frodo-lotr-lordoftherings-gif-5305729

[tawdry valley]

It’s inbetween a lot of great ideas it didn’t follow up on.

[ionic arch]

who the fuck is she

[runic atlas]

/srs?

[ionic arch]

never

[runic atlas]

Frodo sounds a lot like the Italian translation of the f slur and that definitely didn't cause any issues ever

[fiery burrow]

[ionic arch]

but Frolijah Woodgins definitely looks like a lesbian I hooked up with at an honest to god lesbian bar a long time ago

[warped rock]

:maggotprime

[shell yacht]

lotr sucks ass

[ionic arch]

yeah there's that

[ionic arch]

true

[runic atlas]

sigh

[fiery burrow]

Can we kill him aubrey

[tawdry valley]

https://tenor.com/view/gandalf-it's-mid-it's-peak-peak-mid-gif-11141879063502186855

[warped rock]

send the "we used to kill people with hammers for that" gif

[runic atlas]

Arguably Pippin (Pipino in Italian) is literally just another word or Peniß so

[runic atlas]

Yes

Yes we can

[tawdry valley]

Peppino spaghetti means what now

[runic atlas]

https://tenor.com/view/henya-vshojo-henya-the-genius-bob-the-builder-gif-1669441194566258861

[runic atlas]

Pipino, not Peppino

Peppino is short for Giuseppe

[runic atlas]

I trusted you

[ionic arch]

look it can go hard, be boring as shit, and also be mired in lowkey racist shit all at the same time

granted it certainly was an experience!

[warped rock]

giuseppe has 1 more letter

[tawdry valley]

Stick to pasta, y’all can’t cook

[ionic arch]

i'm so sorry to let you down 😭

[runic atlas]

Well, Peppe is short for Giuseppe

And Peppino is a variant of Peppe

[fiery burrow]

LOTR more like Belgariad minus

[tawdry valley]

Then again dick is short for Richard in English so what does English really do better anyways

[runic atlas]

It does not

[ionic arch]

english is vile lmao

[runic atlas]

Okay why is dick allowed to roam free but if I say Peniß I get shunned by dyno

[fiery burrow]

Listen if I had to meet Gandalf or Belgarath I know I'm pickin the latter

[runic atlas]

Belgawho

[tawdry valley]

You make a language that survives global port and come back to me

[tawdry valley]

Maybe don’t circumvent the filter if that’s what you’re doing

[shell yacht]

because ones a name and yall need a new topic

[trim estuary]

Beluga like t he uhh youtuber

[runic atlas]

I could try something but I do not wanna get warned so suuuure

[wide quartz]

one of the characters

[fiery burrow]

Of course you don't know aldurian naming conventions.

[runic atlas]

Which one of the 100

[ionic arch]

I refuse

[carmine island]

Would you become one of uni’s vampire thralls?

[wide quartz]

i hope i can find a poster of the music

the creation

[warped rock]

what the dark souls

[wide quartz]

what the animal crossing

[runic atlas]

It's for educational purposes, like using copyrighted content on YouTube

[tawdry valley]

Lotr is what dark souls is trying to be

[runic atlas]

Who the hell is that

[tawdry valley]

God I love spreading misinformation on the internet

[shell yacht]

somehow, palpatine returned

[warped rock]

tammo

[ionic arch]

y'all know A Scanner Darkly?

brain stuck on "Spaghetti Darkly"

I think I'm cooked gang

[tawdry valley]

Fingolfin and morgoth

[runic atlas]

Maybe you should step down as mod and never say that again

[wide quartz]

why does fingol have a staff

[runic atlas]

Oh I thought that was water

[wide quartz]

blue wizard looking mf

[tawdry valley]

If that’s palpatine then Sauron is is like. Palpatine’s driver who inherited some of the family deposit

[runic atlas]

More so why does Morgoth not have a shield

[fiery burrow]

you mean sekiro minus

[runic atlas]

Well it's like

Uhh

No

Sauron is Darth Maul

[tawdry valley]

That’s closer but also not right

[shell yacht]

lotr wishes it was a soulsbourne

[opaque sigil]

sauron is vader morgoth is palpatine

[wide quartz]

sauron is weak though he got taken out by a puppy 🙄

[runic atlas]

I meant more so for the devotion

[runic atlas]

No, Vader hates Palps, Sauron loves Morgoth

[runic atlas]

You got some balls to call Huan "a puppy"

[tawdry valley]

I’ve sacrificed a living creature every night since jfk was assasinated to get fromsoft to develop a lotr game

[shell yacht]

ew

[tawdry valley]

So yeah

[runic atlas]

Dude

[fiery burrow]

We already have 2 banger lotr games

[runic atlas]

I fucking wish

Dude I wish the Silmarillion actually got popular

I hate Amazon they could've made a series about the Silmarillion but nope

Had to be about the fucking rings of power

[shell yacht]

i hope fromsoft never touches established ios

[slate wagon]

would be peak

[wide quartz]

gollum and uh

[tawdry valley]

That’s a fair ask tbh

[fiery burrow]

I hope fromsoft never touches game design again

[runic atlas]

I want people to actually know who Fëanor is

[fiery burrow]

5 flops and one good game within the past few years

[opaque sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/bruz-shadow-of-war-self-appointment-self-approval-point-gif-4873029317879341906

[shell yacht]

i mean ips how tf did i typo ios

[wide quartz]

they couldnt, tolkein household expressely kept silmarillion to themselves as it was his own magnum opus

[runic atlas]

Sadly Miyazaki said he hasn't made the perfect game yet so

[runic atlas]

...

Okay yeah can't blame em

[fiery burrow]

Yeah because he's stupid and thought headless ape was a good idea

[tawdry valley]

You use an iOS phone or don’t use one, and are being fed propaganda

[tawdry valley]

Definitely can blame them

100% can blame them

[fiery burrow]

Blame copyright laws booooo

[tawdry valley]

2 episodes in I was like “okay but that can’t be Sauron so like, who tf is he.”

“Okay but that’s definitely it Gandalf so like, who tf is he”

And it’s Gandalf and Sauron

So fucking dumb. The dwarves were the only reason to watch that show

[fiery burrow]

spoilers

[tawdry valley]

It’s been out forever and it sucks anyways

[wide quartz]

they made sauron such a good spy that he became a fundamentally different character

[tawdry valley]

Also I’m the only dumbass that didn’t figure it out

[fiery burrow]

I promised my dad I would watch it with him like 2 years ago

[fiery burrow]

[opaque sigil]

everyone DIES before lotr except the elves and ainur and shit

[tawdry valley]

So dumb

[wide quartz]

this guy is the best plot twist of all time and you cant tell me otherwise

[runic atlas]

No I mean

[ionic arch]

thinking about moons

[fiery burrow]

Its better than "No, I AM your father"

[wide quartz]

exactlyyyy

[tawdry valley]

All of snope

[opaque sigil]

not even close

[runic atlas]

I can't blame the people that kept the rights

Cause Amazon would've 100% destroyed it

[shell yacht]

i havent been to io in like 5 years

[wide quartz]

did snope ever say such a hard line as "im the spy"???

[fiery burrow]

WHAT?!

[wide quartz]

whats io

like itch.io?

[fiery burrow]

Slither.io

[tawdry valley]

Oh yeah this was your all nighter day right

[wary storm]

BASED

[tawdry valley]

You’re still a bit fucked up?

[shell yacht]

huh

[runic atlas]

Also they made a mess with Annatar

[wary storm]

aint no way we got dlc for the blasphemous two before silk song

[tawdry valley]

Were you up way too late recently

[wide quartz]

whos annatar i havent seen the show

[shell yacht]

yeah but what does that have to do with saturns moons

[tawdry valley]

Quit gaslighting me, yeah.

[runic atlas]

??? Sauron's pretty form

[shell yacht]

or jupiter.. i forget

[wide quartz]

right right

[runic atlas]

Like when he goes to the elves he puts on a disguise

[wide quartz]

i have trouble remembering the names

[tawdry valley]

Is that where you froze the bread

[runic atlas]

And like they killed him twice in RoP

[runic atlas]

But that makes no sense

[wide quartz]

didnt they also fuck up galadriel

like the primary badass in the entire thing

[runic atlas]

Cause if he dies once then he can't be one Annatar again

[shell yacht]

no the bread is on europa

[runic atlas]

Yeah

3k+ year old acts like a teenager

[tawdry valley]

I was so excited for her to do something other than look and sound pretty like in the original trilogy

[runic atlas]

She's like

[tawdry valley]

And then she was just a bitch

[fiery burrow]

are people still convinced europa exists

[cursive fern]

I click on the silksong discusion and see rings of power stuff and my brain dies.

[runic atlas]

The oldest of the Elves from back when Fëanor came to the Beleriand

[runic atlas]

Well, the oldest still alive

[runic atlas]

She literally is the only one that's still alive that climbed the ice mountains

And they even show you that

And then

[wide quartz]

literally the coolest surviving character during lotr

[tawdry valley]

And she sucked in what was essentially supposed to be HER show

[runic atlas]

"ThERe's a sToRm inSIdE mE!11!!"

i miss when star helped me with chemistry lab report

[wide quartz]

amazon heres a plot twist, people actually like it when characters are cool and badass

[fiery burrow]

Acting like chemistry has any practical application is ludicrous

[tawdry valley]

“Yeah that’s appropriate character conflict. Send it. Also, flash a balrachu or whatever they’re called on screen, they’ll love it”

now that ive read jojo

Was it bad bad or just bad

[wide quartz]

i have an urge to dress incredibly beautifully but inpractically

[ionic arch]

hm!

[wide quartz]

tragic bad...

[ionic arch]

do it, worth it

[open narwhal]

that wasnt positive

[wide quartz]

idk man my entire wardrobe rn is plain but practical

[fiery burrow]

change that

[ionic arch]

I will, however, be going in the opposite direction and dressing like Insane Mesh Tanktop + Horrific Necktie Harry Du Bois (sexy version)

[wary storm]

well game now is balanced, you wont die to one-shot spikes, there will be no stupid enemies who hit you out of the room, there is now really nice built world, game got better but its mid anyways, grotesque horror there just for grotesque horror

[ionic arch]

I liked it...

[wide quartz]

tequila sunset is always sexy

[ionic arch]

okay lemme clarify: I'm pulling a ||titquila|| sunset

which is much funnier in the Insane Mesh Tanktop (which I already have for fun)

I guess I should clarify that this is for halloween and not in general lmao

I think I'd get fired...

[open narwhal]

but its mean

[ionic arch]

but it slaps as a phrase even if I'd prefer fewer species be cuisine

[wide quartz]

halloween ends for me in 40 minutes

[open narwhal]

[broken tartan]

I also like drinking tequila during sunsets

[ionic arch]

...and long walks in the rain?

wait

[broken tartan]

Thats what im talking about

DAMMIT I MISSED A 4 STAR BY ONE CLICK

[shell yacht]

that song us fucked up and funny at the same time

[broken tartan]

Are you playing gacha games

[wide quartz]

webfishing

[ionic arch]

truly haunting

grotesque

it's like aural body horror for me

[shell yacht]

huh

[fiery burrow]

webfishing is the dark souls of animal crossing

[shell yacht]

wait do we mean the same song

[ionic arch]

we do I'm just super gay

I mean I think we do

[shell yacht]

oh right

the pinya colatta song(?)

[ionic arch]

yeeeeeehawg

yeah

it's like the kind of thing my stepdad would listen to, enjoying with no inherent motion, dead little eyes peering out from a dark and violent comfort I would never know

boomerbait

[shell yacht]

👵

[ionic arch]

songs that say "aren't you like me?" with all the straightman boomercreeps nodding and saying "sir yes sir"

i recognize that I bring more than the text to it

but it is evocative

so I've curved the world around such alienating things, and now view them as "cultural experiences"

very tongue in cheek, analyzing regular shit like it's horrific performance art

I was born a nasty little freak and that shit's fuckin' chronic

I'm on that terminal landslide baybeeeeee

[flat remnant]

anyone doing anything/did anything for halloween

[tawdry valley]

Giving out candy and trying to make it memorable for kids

Stressful as fuck, resisting the urge to just leave out a bowl

[ionic arch]

dressed as ||t*ts-out|| Harry Du Bois watching Over the Garden Wall

can't go out so just fuckin' around

me and my wife got pizza

[opaque sigil]

nah shit's boring

[fiery burrow]

i prefer summerween myself

[tawdry valley]

You like cosplay

[fiery burrow]

no i like the no-face freaky scarecrow guy

https://tenor.com/view/esrarengiz-kasaba-gravity-falls-yaz-cadılar-bayramı-summerween-gif-27048571

[flat remnant]

gra-mid-ty balls 😔

[tawdry valley]

Who’s pizza

[opaque sigil]

[flat remnant]

oh over the garden wall peak

[slate wagon]

slander

[flat remnant]

you know i'm right

[fiery burrow]

Lower the sun into this china cup

[slate wagon]

over the garden wall is peak but it’s so short

[flat remnant]

over the garden wall helped me be a better sibling to my own so 10/10 for me 😤

[fiery burrow]

I don't think it needs to be longer tbh

Short and sweet, nothing crazy

But its memorable

[tawdry valley]

If that’s unironic then you don’t get to judge media

[flat remnant]

nah i'm joking

[tawdry valley]

Good because if you’re gonna learn to love your sibling it has to be with brother bear, otherwise it’s clearly generational cringe

[flat remnant]

i do really like it and it did help me with introspection but the latter point didn't change the rating

[flat remnant]

growing up we only had brother bear 2 where the girl turns into the bear to be with the titular brother of the bear but we lost that shortly after

[ionic arch]

an old friend

[flat remnant]

personally not doing anything for halloween because i have that sort of family but some guy i know is coming over and brining pizza and we're probably watching something

[flat remnant]

also i didn't read this earlier this is pretty cute

[ionic arch]

pizza is just you're oldest friend
coming back for what he forgot

[tawdry valley]

I’m home alone back from uni. Why the hell am I the one doing the planning

[wary storm]

no way you said that

[broken tartan]

Watching scary halloween movies gulp

[tawdry valley]

No way you’re getting heated over 2 day cold tea

[wary storm]

your mind changed?

[broken tartan]

True

[tawdry valley]

Yeah. I’m not at all like the person I was yesterday

[fiery burrow]

eww HK

[opaque sigil]

hk is mid ow is peak

[tawdry valley]

https://tenor.com/view/oceanmam-bird-staring-gif-21593664

ow?

[fiery burrow]

explain this

[tawdry valley]

Which ow

[opaque sigil]

outer wilds

[wary storm]

erm achually outer wilds isnt metroidvania 👆

[shell willow]

Did you just eh outer wilds?

[flat remnant]

two terrible games

[shell willow]

You have less time on outer wilds because you can only play it once

[tawdry valley]

Yeah but HK isn’t memorable because its map has backtracking. It’s memorable because you’re engrained in a well crafted and open ended exploration loop

[fiery burrow]

I thought you were goated...

[wary storm]

blasphemous 1 is poo, blasphemous 2 is mid

[fiery burrow]

I haven't finished EOTE

[tawdry valley]

Not even Metroid had a decent exploration loop.

[opaque sigil]

you gotta

[tawdry valley]

You just shot bombs at tiles until a new path was there

[quiet knot]

I only played OW for like... 4 hours

[fiery burrow]

i knowww but I'm a wimp

[shell willow]

Bro yeah you gotta keep going

[tawdry valley]

So yeah, outer wilds is like hollow knight

[opaque sigil]

the eote ending is so fucking good

[slate wagon]

||same but don’t tell tammo||

[fiery burrow]

its one of those games where its hard to boot up but once you do its incredibly fun

[shell willow]

Have you beat the main game ending yet?

[tawdry valley]

I can’t hear you from underneath my penance drip

[tawdry valley]

Yeah

[shell willow]

Alright nice

[tawdry valley]

I’m spoilerproof on outer wilds if that’s what you’re worried about

[opaque sigil]

tell them that they need to play eote

[tawdry valley]

What’s eote

[shell willow]

You all need to play eote

[opaque sigil]

echoes of the eye

[tawdry valley]

Oh yeah

[fiery burrow]

yeah duh that goes for all metroidvania slop

[wary storm]

well you have to be entertained into OW, but game is good anyway

[wide quartz]

oh like metroid dread

[tawdry valley]

Okay

[wary storm]

and ori 2 is err 6/10, ori 1 was alot better

[shell willow]

You two are just dunking on every game that is mentioned here

[opaque sigil]

have you even played the lost crown

[fiery burrow]

Both have terrible combat

[tawdry valley]

Ori 2 was Ori 1 again so no

It just didn’t innovate like at all

[fiery burrow]

i missed the sale

[tawdry valley]

Definitely an improvement though

[opaque sigil]

[tawdry valley]

Or would you prefer combat was mashing m1

[wary storm]

but not even close to my precious empty cavalryman

[fiery burrow]

Ori 2 is slightly better because its not as linear

[flat remnant]

i really do hold that it would've been a much better game if the final boss was that wolf from the beginning again

[wary storm]

only in graphics

game got worse

good cinema, baaad game booohooo

[fiery burrow]

Shriek went hard af though

[shell willow]

Bro what the shriek fight was insane

[tawdry valley]

Game got a grapple + stuff we already had before

[flat remnant]

the ori developers seem to really fucking hate birds

[tawdry valley]

They’re just not creative.

[flat remnant]

and good plots but that's beside the point

[tawdry valley]

It was practically the same plot and area themes

“Get the water flowin again, fight the bird, get a glider”

[shell willow]

I think it’s the opposite. They tied Ku into Shriek’s motive

[flat remnant]

imagine if shriek was some sort of wolf bird or bird wolf now that'd be kino

[shell willow]

Her hate of owls creating a driving force her

[tawdry valley]

Doesn’t change the rest of the game feeling so much like ori 1

[fiery burrow]

||Kuro and her children are good||

[opaque sigil]

so a raven?

[fiery burrow]

||Shriek is bad but sympathetic||

[shell willow]

I see nothing wrong with that

[fiery burrow]

||Well Kuro became good for 2 minutes before kicking the bucket||

[flat remnant]

||kuro dies|| and her kid is a damsel in distress

[tawdry valley]

They could have done better, they just played it really safe.

Gave us slightly better combat, reused every area, and added a grapple hook

If you play ori 2 then you should never play ori 1

That’s not a healthy sequel imo

[fiery burrow]

Ori devs don't hate birds specifically they're just miserable people who hate everyone

[shell willow]

I didn’t compare it to Ori 1. I just played it and I thoroughly enjoyed it

It was a fun sequel and it gave me more Ori to enjoy

[wary storm]

1. some metroidvania tools used only in one location 2) "+dmg -hp/+hp -dmg" ahh amulets 3) no challenge at locations, game autosaves you literally every 5 seconds + fucking head explosion at the chases, where you have to memory everything. 4) 3/6 weapons are useless

i can do more but i forgor a lot

[fiery burrow]

When this banger comes on
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECbhlkXAEVI

[tawdry valley]

Chases and bosses were neat

[shell willow]

Hey I like the chases

[flat remnant]

holy

[fiery burrow]

Who cares about challenge its an ori game

[tawdry valley]

Idk what to tell you, 3/6 weapons being useless is better than 1/1 weapons being dull and aimless

[flat remnant]

like the chase with the wolf that was the best part of ori 2

[tawdry valley]

Ori 1 is not better than ori 2

[shell willow]

Yeah it’s meant to be fun

If you want challenge then just play hollow knight

[wary storm]

i said thing about chases only so you cant say "game doesnt supposed to give you challenges"

[fiery burrow]

HK also isn't extremely difficult

[flat remnant]

oh tangentially related did you guys know it's completely possible to beat the spider boss without the light ability

[tawdry valley]

I don’t think ori has ever cared about its challenge

[wary storm]

well hk is difficult at the locations AND bossfights

[tawdry valley]

Go fast or raise difficult with numbers

[shell willow]

It is for new players whose first Metroidvania was ori

[spare fractal]

You could say the same for any videogame, difficulty is subjective

[fiery burrow]

Yes and I'm sharing my opinion

[flat remnant]

thoughtless enemy spams does not a difficult game make

[wary storm]

not like 0/10 any kid can do and 9/10 metronome

[tawdry valley]

HK difficulty is decided by your nail level. People with different platforming backgrounds have different opinions on that

[spare fractal]

Oh I thought you were stating it like it was a fact

[tawdry valley]

Path of pain and WP took me like an hour in total. Took way longer for others but that’s fine

[wary storm]

well you cant get pure nail at like 6th hour of the game

[tawdry valley]

Fair

[shell willow]

It took me four hours.

Two of them were spent on the final room

[wary storm]

BUT you can buy every upgrade with just like 4 mins of grind?

THEY SOLD YOU TRIPLE JUMP AND YOU ATE IT

[tawdry valley]

Again, Ori clearly doesn’t care about its challenge

[wary storm]

chases that are hard af?

[shell willow]

Yeah Ori is for the story

[tawdry valley]

Pick a build and use it

Bounce around

[fiery burrow]

the chases should take like 20ish tries

[tawdry valley]

Do a chase sequence, find a new move

That’s it

[opaque sigil]

honestly at some level it's just gamers having a deeply dysfunctional relationship with difficulty

[flat remnant]

chases are just trial and error

[opaque sigil]

hard isn't good and easy isn't a criticism

[wary storm]

chases saying outerwise, its just devs dont know what are they doing

[magic narwhal]

I mean, no it's decided by reaction speed

[tawdry valley]

Reaction speed has next to nothing to do with platforming, what

[flat remnant]

half of the average deaths in a chase come from the player not knowing what to do and how to proceed i'd say

[magic narwhal]

If you suck at reacting to enemies, you're never gonna hit the later foes

[magic narwhal]

Hard disagree

[shell willow]

And that’s the fun part

[flat remnant]

is it though

[magic narwhal]

Also nail upgrades do nothing for platforming

[wary storm]

and you just respawning at the start

[flat remnant]

not if you placebo hard enough

[wet tulip]

insta death to spikes isn't fun at all

[shell willow]

Lemme rephrase: that’s the fun part in my opinion

[opaque sigil]

nah trial and error in a chase sequence completely kills momentum it's janky as hell

[fiery burrow]

Its not really trial and error

[wary storm]

if game was "easy and about story", it would save you every 5 seconds as it is in overworld

[fiery burrow]

Ori 2 chase sequences anyways

[flat remnant]

your opinion is pee pee and you should reconsider

[shell willow]

Hollow knight is for those seeking a challenge if your complaining about spikes then stop playing

[magic narwhal]

A lot of platforming in HK is timed precision which requires reaction speed

[fiery burrow]

Wind temple was a memorization game

[shell willow]

no

[atomic whale]

Christmas time finally 😭😭😭

[opaque sigil]

it really isn't

[wet tulip]

i am talking about ori, not hollow knight

[marsh ibex]

meagmmen

[flat remnant]

november erasure

[wary storm]

happy hello witch

[magic narwhal]

Also Shovel Knight, these spikes are nothing in comparison

[fiery burrow]

I like how inconsistent lava is in mario

You never know if Mario will bounce up or just instantly die

[marsh ibex]

3d games usually have bouncing, 2d don’t tend to

[wary storm]

i hate how inconsistent lava is in mario

[marsh ibex]

I think you’re just smelly

[wary storm]

You never know if Mario will bounce up or just instantly die

[fiery burrow]

This just strengthens my argument that 2D games are on average worse than 3D ones

[magic narwhal]

Depends

3D World doesn't have the bounce iirc

[opaque sigil]

indie slop 🤢

[marsh ibex]

that’s why I said usually

[fiery burrow]

3d world is goated

[flat remnant]

i doubt the bouncing would work in 2D

[marsh ibex]

Shame it smells

[fiery burrow]

Hmm waiter I'll take another highly responsive side scroller action adventure game

[marsh ibex]

I should make a 2d platformer

[opaque sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/boom-princeofpersia-video-game-video-games-thelostcrown-gif-4347692893810170479

[marsh ibex]

the gimmick will be rate

[magic narwhal]

I mean it can in theory

[marsh ibex]

Rats

[fiery burrow]

Its called pipsqueak

!

[magic narwhal]

Could make it easier to drop into pits

[marsh ibex]

they made a 2d platformer for rats already?

damnit

[flat remnant]

do you guys think enemies that spit out lava just have it in their bile hot already or does it get to that temperature the moment it leaves the mouth

[marsh ibex]

I guess I’ll make it 3d…

[fiery burrow]

flammable venom

[opaque sigil]

probably also been done, you should make it 4d and beat the megakure devs to it

[marsh ibex]

when they burp they vomit a little and the burning sensation sets it on fire

[opaque sigil]

now that's a game that's actually never coming out

[flat remnant]

tom hardy could never

[marsh ibex]

Half life 3

[opaque sigil]

sure but miegakure is being developed

that's just gonna be forever

[fiery burrow]

valve is too busy updating tf2 to focus on another game

[wet tulip]

hey, they also have deadlock now

[fiery burrow]

The marketing for deadlock is nuts

[wet tulip]

the marketing: hey here is the game, now playtest it and invite all your friends

[fiery burrow]

live uncle dane reaction

[tawdry valley]

Deadlock already has cheaters and Dane uploaded his deadlock reaction in the midst of the bot problem

“CS and TF2 are rotting to death, and they’re making an overwatch competitor?”

[marsh ibex]

I’m researching thaumaturges and it’s neater than I thought

[tawdry valley]

I’m wondering when they would have released the game had it not leaked

[marsh ibex]

It’s like john constantine but not an asshole

[fiery burrow]

Now we're in the midst of the colored pants problem

[opaque sigil]

thaumaturges can be assholes if you choose

[tawdry valley]

Constantine is an asshole?

[marsh ibex]

I’m gonna color your pants

[marsh ibex]

…yeah?

[tawdry valley]

Which kind

[wet tulip]

you think they released the game sooner because it leaked? thats actually an interesting possibility

[tawdry valley]

Is he a jerk or is he a prick.

[marsh ibex]

well I want a different flavor of asshole

[tawdry valley]

It’s not out yet.

They’re currently still remaking game character textures

[wet tulip]

i know but pretty much everyone can have acess and play it

[tawdry valley]

If you email Gaben yeah

But that’s post catastrophic leak.

[tawdry valley]

No seriously

[wet tulip]

you only need an invite from someone who has acess, and with acess you can literally invite your whole steam friends list and they are probably getting acess next day

[tawdry valley]

Yeah

[wet tulip]

i mean i got invite and got access to the game in 3 hours, they cleary want a lot of people to play the game right now

[tawdry valley]

Yeah it’s a test build

I’m not saying they dont want people to play, I’m saying they didn’t

And what I’m curious about is how far from release it actually was

[shell yacht]

day 1: hey guys beta test this
day 2: lmao concords dead
day 3: boost the servers and run concord into the dirt

[broken tartan]

Concord died before being born

[wet tulip]

i feel like concord woudn't have died so easily if it was released 5 years ago maybe i am wrong

[shell yacht]

yk whats funny

they were 3 yrs in on dev 5 years ago

[fiery burrow]

the game was released at the worst possible time

[broken tartan]

Concord was on development for 5 years apparenrly?

Even tho it was trash

[shell yacht]

no 8 years and 400 million $

[broken tartan]

8 years 😭

I would stop making games if i spent 8 years making a game just for it to die in the same week it came out

[fiery burrow]

i'm flabbergasted at the art direction of the game

what the heck happened there

[naive geode]

Starpengu

[broken tartan]

They tried making overwatch 3

[shell yacht]

neon dogshit was a great theme wdym

[broken tartan]

Or Paladins 2 if anyone remembers that game

[tawdry valley]

It’s not all bad it’s just so… pastel.

[shell yacht]

ngl i liked the robot guy

[naive geode]

I remember

[wet tulip]

its not only the fact it was the worst possible time, from now on i feel like releasing a hero shooter with that price tag that is such a bad idea when you have such good free to play alternatives

[tawdry valley]

The characters that didn’t get ridiculed on the internet looked pretty neat

[shell yacht]

and the discount starlord, if he wasnt wearing a lifejacket

Paladins

[wet tulip]

Paladins is seriously fine for a free to play game and now of course Overwatch 2

[broken tartan]

I remember people used to say it was gonna replace overwatch in its prime

[tawdry valley]

Serious difference in quality

In any case the game being mid as hell is what killed it

[broken tartan]

And nobody talked about it

[tawdry valley]

If you play overwatch or destiny, in what way does this game appeal to you

[broken tartan]

Genuinely 0 hype

[tawdry valley]

Answer: it doesn’t. Game flops

[broken tartan]

Destiny 2 is pretty well polished tbh

[tawdry valley]

we’re gonna be stuck with companies that try to sell battlepasses coated in videogame for the next decade

Insanity

[broken tartan]

I think we're lacking space exploration games

There's No Man's Sky and Destiny2

[wet tulip]

i don't see any Destiny in Concord what are the similarities? Destiny is more like a RPG shooter with looting progression

[tawdry valley]

Multiversus got so close but then it locked 90% of its character roster (IN A FIGHTING GAME) behind a grind you can accelerate with a paywall

[fiery burrow]

Why isn't every game stellaris

[tawdry valley]

Imagine if smash brothers was Mario, Luigi, and little mac, and then 160 🔒 icons

[shell yacht]

i ditched destiny for a SHITTON of reasons its not a good game by any means

[tawdry valley]

Isn’t it also impossible to get into now

[shell yacht]

destiny is not space exploration

[tawdry valley]

Like even from a “I’m willing to pay for everything” standpoint

[shell yacht]

yeah its not new user friendly either thats one reason

[tawdry valley]

I’m amazed that fomo^2 lasted as long as it did

[broken tartan]

I think its just game companies making bad games just to make a profit 🙄 . Anyways when is the next pokemon game dropping

[wet tulip]

imagine Destiny with free expansions

[shell yacht]

its not pay to win so money doesmt help you

[tawdry valley]

It’s pay to lose next year

[broken tartan]

Destiny 2 is so grindy

[tawdry valley]

Isn’t it?

I thought pvp was always altered by the next expansion

Or is pvp within that expansion

[broken tartan]

Dont they also sell battle passes

competitive pvp is dlc locked to be fair

regular pvp is ass bc unballanced and cheaters

[tawdry valley]

makes sense

[shell yacht]

theyre tied to the seasonal story so not really but yes

you buy a season/mini story and it has loot in the bp

[broken tartan]

Sometimes i wish fortnite didnt exist so there wouldnt be battlepasses

[shell yacht]

its all a dogshit moneygrab but not pay to win

[wet tulip]

the so called "expansion passes" where you pay for a pass that will give you access for the upcoming expansions

[shell yacht]

the offender is Oblivion horse armor

we need to go back in time and blow up todd howard or whoever came up with it

[broken tartan]

Go back in time and blow up riot hq

[shell yacht]

riot didnt start microtransactions

but sure

[broken tartan]

No but it made league which is enough of a crime

[shell yacht]

but arcane

[broken tartan]

Shitass show

[wet tulip]

i heard its very good

[broken tartan]

Well the only good thing about league is the lore

But i really didnt enjoy arcane

[fiery burrow]

Arcane made me put 1000 more hours playing league

[broken tartan]

Star you're on your way to beat league

[fiery burrow]

[broken tartan]

Just play for 1000 more hours

[ionic arch]

look I'm inclined to agree

everyone kept saying Arcane was really good and I found it pretty bad

or at least not to my tastes

[fiery burrow]

pretty animation

[tawdry valley]

Begrudgingly? It’s excellent

BCS levels of character design

[olive bobcat]

Consider that it is you who is pretty bad

[rustic ore]

yeah they did they did the very first microtransaction when they invented skins

[coarse leaf]

i think some things like the music sucked pretty hard but the story was decent and it was a very good piece of animation to be sure

[rustic ore]

"Enemy" was good until it became a meme

so basically for all of 3 days

[coarse leaf]

i never really liked that song at all

imagine dragons in general is not my jam

i LOVED them when i was like 12-14 so it's like quintessential pre-teen music to me

[fiery burrow]

[rustic ore]

True!!

Also has anyone played Ghostwire Tokyo? It's free for me rn I wanna try it

Any good?

[fiery burrow]

if its named something gnarly like ghostwire its probably good
