No boomer mods (12+) actually

[glad minnow]

Hey revers

[grand oriole]

shove an entire dart up your nose

[uncut citrus]

Dont say Hey to me i was already there

i was already there for like 13h

[coarse leaf]

Drugging smokes and weeding snort is better

[fiery coral]

"adreneline"

[sacred stratus]

Minor spelling mistake

[fiery coral]

have you been on Discord for 13h in a row

[glad minnow]

Yes

[coarse leaf]

[glad minnow]

Is that even a question with reev?

[fiery coral]

[subtle flint]

yes.

[uncut citrus]

why do you use multiple elderCultra from different servers

[glad minnow]

[uncut citrus]

[glad minnow]

What sever

Is this THAT seveer

[fiery coral]

I just have the first two out of those

[uncut citrus]

you are in the third one

Unique the two first

[fiery coral]

plus a third but it's not transparent

[uncut citrus]

Amina the second and last one

[glad minnow]

[fiery coral]

fits when it's dark mode I guess

[glad minnow]

Ugh

[subtle flint]

who even uses dark mode

[uncut citrus]

need get in server

[glad minnow]

I dislike revers

[uncut citrus]

everyone but Unique and Sword

[fiery coral]

yeah right

light mode supremacy

[uncut citrus]

so true

[sacred stratus]

Dark mode supremacy

[fiery coral]

if you're on phone try out AMOLED

[fiery coral]

that one was cool

[subtle flint]

isnt it only available for android units?

[fiery coral]

yeah

I think

is that a Pokemon by the way, Hoo

[uncut citrus]

[fiery coral]

[jagged bolt]

https://youtu.be/AZselruGrb0?t=79

it's basically a nuke

[sacred stratus]

I have iPhone

[subtle flint]

can you used amoled?

[sacred stratus]

Not gonna try

[subtle flint]

based

[sacred stratus]

Dark mode best

[subtle flint]

amoled is darker dark mode

[sacred stratus]

Nah regular dark mode is already perfect

[coarse leaf]

amoled is abyss

dark mode is basin

[sacred stratus]

My soul is even darker

[coarse leaf]

omg is that a

is that a Dark Souls referen

[sacred stratus]

No

I’m staying away from souls for the next year

ER rotted my brain

The phrase “I’m Malenia, blade of Miquella” appears in my nightmares

[coarse leaf]

join me in yakuzin time

[sacred stratus]

No

[coarse leaf]

[subtle flint]

KIRYUUU CHAN

[fiery coral]

oh speaking of her I've been watching those boss vs. boss videos recently

[coarse leaf]

Yakuza automatically becomes souls if you play on Hard and never use healing

[fiery coral]

Maliketh absolutely destroys her

[sacred stratus]

Yes

But she destroys most bosses

[fiery coral]

lifesteal moment

[sacred stratus]

She just needs one good WFD

[fiery coral]

is there even a lore reason for it

or is it just...a thing

[sacred stratus]

I think so?

[fiery coral]

what's the lore reason for lifesteal?

[sacred stratus]

IDK she’s just ginger Valkyrie to me

[fiery coral]

Waterfowl is explained a bit I think, something about her mentor and his flowing blade

Lifesteal is just randomly there

[sacred stratus]

Yeah let’s give the boss 2 gigantic healthbars and lifesteal

[fiery coral]

perfectly balanced!

oh and scarlet rot too

and a completely broken attack

[sacred stratus]

Also I watched someone mode Sekiro deflection into ER and Malenia looks like a lot of fun with that

[fiery coral]

that would be good

That's a scenario where I can see Malenia being a very fun boss

just deflect all of Waterfowl

[molten cobalt]

Lace is void

Bottom text

[sacred stratus]

Ongbal moment

[fiery coral]

unironically though that's manageable at least

[sacred stratus]

Yes

[fiery coral]

like One Mind

but thrice

[sacred stratus]

I hope they make Sekiro 2 in the future

[sacred stratus]

It’s a pretty old joke

[fiery coral]

"I am Malenia, Tomoe from another game"

[sacred stratus]

It’s not really funny anymore

[winged prairie]

Oh, that's the first time ive heard it

[sacred stratus]

I’ve known it for 1.5 years

[coarse leaf]

Hey dad is it weird that I'm 16 and I still believe in santa?

No son, I'm 38 and I still laugh at silknever

[fiery coral]

d'you think if all bosses were scaled to endgame more of them would beat Malenia in a boss v. boss thing

Maliketh doesn't need it he's feared by all the demigods for a reason

but aside from him

[sacred stratus]

If only ER had a better difficulty curve

Morgott should have been harder to make sure you’re prepared for mountaintops

[digital glen]

Playing Sekiro with all the extra challenges is still a more fair experience than base game ER

[fiery coral]

genuinely the biggest problem with the game as a whole could be fixed in like a single patch or two

tune down the damage and health of enemies in and after Mountaintops

[sacred stratus]

Yes bcs you just need to tweak a few numbers

[fiery coral]

but nah they'd rather fix random Ash of Wars

and...nerf Radahn...

[sacred stratus]

Enemies are already scaled automatically according to their biome

[digital glen]

maybe that's just because im crazy for Sekiro

[warm bone]

sekiro is definitely the better balanced game

[sacred stratus]

Sekiro is balanced except for chained ogre and blazing bull

[warm bone]

mostly because it's not open world and there is 1 weapon to use

[fiery coral]

yeah ^ 🥴

I wonder if they'll ever make a magic-focused game

[sacred stratus]

My friends quit Sekiro bcs of chained ogre and blazing bull

[fiery coral]

like, in contrast to Sekiro being melee-focused

a pure sorcery thing

wonder how that would look

[warm bone]

that would be cool

[sacred stratus]

Magic is seen as boring compared to melee

[warm bone]

I don't trust fromsoft to balance sorcery tho

[sacred stratus]

^

[fiery coral]

I think Sorcery looks and feels far cooler

[warm bone]

even if it's the only thing

[digital glen]

For some miracle, i defeated blazing bull first try in my first playthrough, but in repeated playthrough its always the fight i dread the most

[sacred stratus]

Chained ogre is also not fun

You either run around like a chicken

[fiery coral]

I don't mind Chained Ogre

[sacred stratus]

Or get grabbed

[digital glen]

I believe you

[fiery coral]

now, that is

On my first playthrough...

[warm bone]

they should throw ||demon of hatred|| back to dark souls where he belongs

[sacred stratus]

It’s less outrageous then the ogre. Only BS attack is the fire ball

Bcs it covers such a big area and he spams that if you try to get close

[fiery coral]

may not be BS but he is tanky

three whole phases makes it such a long fight

[sacred stratus]

I beat demon once and never again

[warm bone]

yeah

[fiery coral]

I love when he makes a ring of fire around you though, it looks so cool

[sacred stratus]

Best fight it either saint Isshin or father owl

[fiery coral]

Try the Inner variants

[digital glen]

ok i pressed edit message instead of reply and now i lost it

[sacred stratus]

Can’t. Game is pirated

[fiery coral]

I see

[sacred stratus]

Didn’t have money at the time to buy it

And these were added after I already finished the game

[fiery coral]

if you do buy it legitimately though

[digital glen]

but i like fighting ogre sometimes and using some unique strats, but i completely understand the problems and why people dont like it

[fiery coral]

definitely try

the three variants are awesome

[sacred stratus]

Yeah I don’t think I’ll buy it tho

[fiery coral]

especially Owl

[sacred stratus]

@fiery coral how hard is Orphan?

Compared to Malenia

[digital glen]

inner isshin is meh, inner genichiro is good, but inner owl is another beast in itself

[sacred stratus]

^

[fiery coral]

Malenia? Orphan will be far more bearable because he doesn't have any BS undodgeable attacks or lifesteal

[sacred stratus]

Also owl father is the most anime fight in the game

You fight your father with cosmic owl magic in a burning temple

[fiery coral]

Inner Isshin's first phase I quite like, but the second/third could have used more changes I agree

[sacred stratus]

And the music is just

[digital glen]

but about demon of hatred, i didnt liked very much at first, but it slowly turned into one of my fav fights in the game, like top 5

[fiery coral]

the Shura bosses are underrated

[digital glen]

i dont refight as often as other bosses because those 3 deathblows

[fiery coral]

yeah

loooooooong fight

[sacred stratus]

ER is the best game I will never play again

[fiery coral]

plus it's not really like you can keep deflecting

[fiery coral]

[sacred stratus]

Well I will

[fiery coral]

try randomisers if you don't enjoy the base game

[sacred stratus]

But not to the same extent as souls

I’m afraid to mod

[fiery coral]

why?

[sacred stratus]

Data corruptions or bans from Bandai

[warm bone]

gravesites in the elden ring randomizer are like lootboxes

[digital glen]

Emma probably has one of the best themes in the game and Isshim Ashina is just so damn cool

[sacred stratus]

Except you don’t pay money

[fiery coral]

it should be fine as long as you play offline right

[warm bone]

make a new steam acc and family share the game to it, mod on that one

[fiery coral]

Yeah I always look forward to 'em

[warm bone]

if you play offline, you won't have to worry about a ban, but do that just in case

[sacred stratus]

Wait you can family share games?!

[warm bone]

yeah

[coarse leaf]

[sacred stratus]

For years my brother and dad wanted to share my games

[warm bone]

I let all my friends play my games with family share

[sacred stratus]

Aka ride in my money

[subtle flint]

LOL

[sacred stratus]

DM me how to do it

[warm bone]

only catch is they can't play when you are

[subtle flint]

https://store.steampowered.com/promotion/familysharing

[sacred stratus]

Ok thx

Is there a limit?

[subtle flint]

to?

[sacred stratus]

On how many people I can share?

[warm bone]

I think it's like 5 people or smthn

[subtle flint]

something like that yeahj

[sacred stratus]

Big enough for my entire family

If they play games through share it won’t change my saves right?

[warm bone]

yeah it's 5

[warm bone]

no, it basically let's them download their own game but restricts access when you are playing

other than that it's just like a normal steam game

[sacred stratus]

Oh

[warm bone]

oh also they can't play when offline I think

but they can play when you are offline

[sacred stratus]

Oh bruh

[warm bone]

in offline mode I mean

[sacred stratus]

Ok

Maybe I should family share my friends and they share with me in return?

[warm bone]

yeah that's a good idea

[sacred stratus]

For single player games

[warm bone]

that's what I do

[sacred stratus]

Nice

I’ll ask them

[warm bone]

do you still need help with how to do it?

[subtle flint]

12 pm

[coarse leaf]

Zzz?

[sacred stratus]

I’ll DM you if I do

[warm bone]

k

I might go to bed soon tho

[sacred stratus]

Go to sleep then

[fiery coral]

Gentle Blade music

[sacred stratus]

Never fought the Shura bosses

[fiery coral]

dew it

it feels bad I know but

[sacred stratus]

Why would I? I get more game and better bosses for not doing it

[fiery coral]

they're such good bosses

[sacred stratus]

Nah

[fiery coral]

Shura Isshin isn't too far from Sword Saint Isshin I'd say (quality-wise)

[sacred stratus]

I don’t feel like playing Sekiro again

[fiery coral]

[sacred stratus]

I’d rather play Celeste, MHR and core keeper

[fiery coral]

Core Keeper?

[sacred stratus]

I also have spelunky 2 and into the breach sitting in my library

[sacred stratus]

2d pixel art Minecraft

But more simple

And no toxic fanbase

Huge fun with Aval

We play every week having a blast

[warm bone]

sekiro is probably the least replayable fromsoft game

[sacred stratus]

DS2 is probably the most

[fiery coral]

I'd agree if I didn't have >30 playthroughs by now I found it very fun to go through again and again, especially considering it's shorter than the rest

DS1 and DS2, on the other hand, I never felt like revisiting

[warm bone]

well I have the attention span of an infant so if nothing new happens my brain shuts down

[lilac sapphire]

the DS games are on average more replayble just by the fact that there's different weapon builds you can do, different starting items, different classes etc.
But yeah it really depends on your preferences which game you have more fun replaying

[sacred stratus]

That one part in Sekiro where you have to talk to Kuro and Emma 10 morbillion times

[fiery coral]

yeah I'm aware everything except Sekiro is likely to be far more replayable by definition, ha

even still, eh, probably the short length and fun combat/bosses/traversal does it for me

I've been told DS2 excels in PvP

[sacred stratus]

DS3 has the best PvP

[fiery coral]

which probably contributes to this

Oh hm

[warm bone]

true

and the servers are still down 😠

[fiery coral]

Ah well, makes no difference to me either way 🥴 got them on console, no online multiplayer without paying for a subscription

wait really

[lilac sapphire]

I'm playing through sekiro for the first time currently and oh god the combat is sooooo much fun

[warm bone]

yeah

[fiery coral]

wait

do not scroll up, whatever you do

unless you've already been spoiled

[jade canopy]

The server went down because you could get your save files broken through multiplayer

[fiery coral]

oh right I heard about something related to hacked items

[sacred stratus]

SQL injections iirc

[fiery coral]

have people found workarounds?

[sacred stratus]

They patched it in ER

[fiery coral]

to doing co-op and PvP, I mean

[sacred stratus]

Still working on DS3

[fiery coral]

didn't that game's PvP come with its own problems

[sacred stratus]

But you can download blue sentinels mod to play online DS3

[warm bone]

blue sentinel 100x better than stock fromsoft anticheat

and easy anticheat

[coarse leaf]

Wait seriously didnt the blue sentinel team fix it in like a week lol

[warm bone]

yeah

[fiery coral]

[warm bone]

fromsoft still hasn't put them back

[fiery coral]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfJVh9aaH98 apparently this is a thing

[sacred stratus]

HK music

[warm bone]

hk music + Jerma

[kindred pewter]

Turnip boy commits tax evasion music

[sacred stratus]

yeah I know this glitch

I can't play co-op bcs of it

my friend constantly disconnects

[brittle garnet]

oh the 2 minute glitch?

the one where some bug in the code that connects to the anticheat makes it so anyone gets disconnected after 2 minutes pass since they connect

[jade canopy]

We all saw that dw

[cerulean sable]

i unironically
and im not shitposting here

semiwish for a 6vs6 HK game mode

i dont mean like 6 knights tho i mean like individual chars with their own kits

[earnest fox]

How do you get your status to say that

[stone oxide]

overwatch says 5v5 is better

[earnest fox]

Nah but honestly I want to troll friends by doing this

[uncut citrus]

Mads in main

[marsh ibex]

Almost anyone can do that

[cerulean sable]

i dont mind the 5v5 honestly but it made the tank queue time to 8 minutes in my experience

so we play in open queue...

which means we can have 1-5 tanks, and currently tanks are really overtuned atm because theres only 1 tank in regular queue to make them the "boss" of each team so anymore than 1 tank is fucking painful to fight against

[brittle garnet]

you mean with the same combat system as HK?

[cerulean sable]

i guess youll need to tune it a bit more to not be too spammy but yeah

i think ive played too much OW and seen too much HK pvp videos so theres that 🥴

[marsh ibex]

opinion invalid

Overwatch 2 player

[cerulean sable]

like theyll have their own 3 abilities but overally movement is gonna be the same as HK

[brittle garnet]

HK pvp seems to be like minecraft pvp but all of its issues exaggerated

[jade canopy]

Well I’m not too sure about what base hk has to offer in terms of multiplayer, like what it has that other games don’t

So sure a 5v5 pvp sounds neat

[cerulean sable]

if Minecraft had good gameplay you mean

look jokes aside minecraft while having really good sandbox exploration, the combat is boring regardless of how many mods try to do something with it

doesnt matter if its like timing blocks, stamina mechanics or even just adding more weapons

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPfYKpgNDDc

hytale is something im actually looking forward to because the combat doesnt look garbo

and again, sound design is such a huge thing with melee feel

[sinful flare]

when was hyrule first announced

like centuries ago

[cerulean sable]

its what annoys me games that use generic slash sounds for everything, hence i love how HK has these unique sounds if you hit metallic armor

not sure

[marsh ibex]

wow sandbox game doesn’t have in depth combat

[sinful flare]

i meant hytale not hrule fuck

[marsh ibex]

don’t give me terraria

I will never play it

[sinful flare]

2018

huh i thought it was like 2014

[cerulean sable]

theres tons of games i love but combat hasnt aged well

[marsh ibex]

you don’t age your combat in barrels?

Peasant

[cerulean sable]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eeBJ_pjnNw hence i will forever love you hitman for making the combat animations non garbage

[fiery coral]

I love Hitman too

oh wait you don't mean the games

[cerulean sable]

i never played the games

[sinful flare]

damn me neither

[carmine sapphire]

true

[hexed crow]

Playing mgr for the first time
In one day i started the game and best Sam
That's where Ieft off for now

[sinful flare]

huh i might actually buy MGR

[fiery coral]

Yes

[frank hull]

why did people become so obsessed with the game to the point where it was like

other games didnt exist to them lmao

[dark wagon]

It looks awesome

awesomer than other games

[brittle garnet]

Hollow Knight was just so good

[keen blaze]

[distant crown]

true

[brittle garnet]

so getting Hollow Knight 2: But Better edition™️ is unbelievable to many people

like a dream come true

[ivory sluice]

Heat wave hit again

[brittle garnet]

haha

38 degrees here

[ivory sluice]

37 for me

But i have no fan

[brittle garnet]

💀

[ivory sluice]

That's me after my skin melts

[frank hull]

i mean ok

[brittle garnet]

if it's this hot in here imagine how it is in countries where it's like that usually

[ivory sluice]

I would simply not go to these countries

[frank hull]

dont ever come to australia

you will burn or freeze, rarely is there an in between

[brittle garnet]

but cool animals tho

[ivory sluice]

Spiders

[frank hull]

i live there and

yes it's cool but

[brittle garnet]

cool animals

[frank hull]

i agree tbh

but not even joking weather in that one city is fucking trash, yet it makes the place all the more memorable

(i live there)

[ivory sluice]

Memoreable? Good memories?

[frank hull]

memorable isnt the right word but i guess the weather of melbourne is funny at the same time

because of how literal rng it is

[brittle garnet]

god i hope after this heat wave a giant storm comes around

[ivory sluice]

Damn scientist wasn't lying, global warming can create anomalies in temperatures

[frank hull]

spelunky 2??

[ivory sluice]

Yes

[frank hull]

wtf

that's actually crazy

[ivory sluice]

What's wrong with getting all achievments in the best game ever made

[wheat sail]

I only have 100 on rain world

[frank hull]

nothing, it's just incredibly impressive

[gilded adder]

wait

how many does rain world have?

[ivory sluice]

4

[frank hull]

bro why are the achievements in outer wilds actually fucking hard to get

it's an exploration game jesus christ

completed the main ending
3/31 achievements (?????????????)

[ivory sluice]

Try doing a Spelunky 2 run without ever picking up gold

[frank hull]

i cant even get past olmec

[wheat sail]

I think about 20 achievements in rain world

[frank hull]

what the fucking shit man

no gold?

[sinful flare]

devil beggar gave speed ball pog

[frank hull]

this is like dead cells 5bc normal mode true ending shit

[ivory sluice]

Yes, you pick up 1$ and no achievment

[frank hull]

uhhhh

torture

[ivory sluice]

[unreal jay]

[ivory sluice]

What the hell does feaning mean

[wheat sail]

joker

[ivory sluice]

Stop making up words

[unreal jay]

I mean

it's not made up at all

kinda

every word made up

[ivory sluice]

Feaning is not a real word

[unreal jay]

I mean if it doesn't show the red line

should mean that it's a real world

[dusty nimbus]

iridocyclitis is where words become words

[unreal jay]

feaning basically means I am dying to play the game

[ivory sluice]

[tired cave]

Guys, I just thought about something
We all know that Silksong will probably release in 2023, cause the YouTube category said so, and that it is unlikely that it will be out in the next 5 months
But you know what game also comes out in early 2023? Zelda BOTW2, so Team Cherry really needs to not release Silksong close to BOTW2, so that the game can have its hype at its fullest (yes I'm doing a marketing plan for Team Cherry, wtf is wrong with me)

[radiant wraith]

YouTube doesn't know more than us

[tawny basalt]

You see, botw2 isn’t coming out

don’t ask why and how I know, you don’t want to know

[olive grotto]

AYO

https://tenor.com/view/sausage-pen-hand-saddlegoose-sausagespin-gif-22809717

[oblique badge]

Silksong is not real and is a myth spread by TC to keep the fandom alive

[formal karma]

Silksong can release whenever it wants

[oblique badge]

It is not real

[formal karma]

Thanks to eshops- there's not really any competing with other gane releases

TC doesn't need to ensure massive sales to bring themselves back from debt

[wheat sail]

taco bell S tier

[radiant wraith]

I wouldn't know

[wheat sail]

authentic mexican food

[wheat crescent]

Guys

It is 11 months till SS

[ivory sluice]

Silksong

[wheat crescent]

Max

[ivory sluice]

Yes month passed since the "releasing in 12 months" thing

[wheat crescent]

Yeah

[wheat sail]

Its coming this year

[ivory sluice]

Yes

[formal karma]

Certainly possible

[ivory sluice]

Says the guy with [Team 2022] in the username

[formal karma]

Yea. It's certainly possible

[ivory sluice]

I'm not even gonna comment on that misspelling

[formal karma]

I fixed em

[violet path]

Good aftermorning

[wheat sail]

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

[spice plume]

Good morning (or afternoon) chat!

[violet path]

Good night to you too

[digital glen]

good __________ (fill in the blank)

[coarse leaf]

yes I'm doing a marketing plan for Team Cherry, wtf is wrong with me

dont worry, youre not the first

[nimble pebble]

He do be delivering the Dominos

[wheat sail]

mmmhmm

[nimble pebble]

Ah, HK release 2 Electric boogaloo

[nimble pebble]

Kirby is such a based franchise

[marsh ibex]

If I go back to the “don’t release ss when botw2 comes out”

hk was released in the same month as the first game

[nimble pebble]

And HK still did well

and SS will do well as well because it has a dedicated fan base

Any Extra sales from non HK fans will come after

It makes no difference

[wheat sail]

no point griefing yourself on purpose

just do it another date

[digital glen]

HK came out the same year as the colossal Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trillogy so SS should be fine

[radiant wraith]

Yeah, Silksong is probably good enough to be able to sell after the first month, after people are finished playing BOTW 2

[dreamy lava]

2017 was insane

easily the best year in terms of video games

[radiant wraith]

Of course if everything is released in one year, you can expect less games the next yeat

[digital glen]

kinda related but i still think that what happened with horizon forbidden west was funny

[tawny basalt]

Consider this, what if the release of silksong hurts breath of the wild 2?

[violet path]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/584110602205790227/975468699794415626/HeySoIMadeAFakeModPingEmoteBruh.gif

they arent on topic ban them

[indigo nymph]

When r we ever on topic

[digital glen]

BOTW 2 is a 2023 release right?

[indigo nymph]

Yeah

[violet path]

Erm this is ss discussion you should be talking sbt ss

[tawny basalt]

Aren’t you off topic by trying to ban them which is not related to silksong

[violet path]

Arent you a jester?

[tawny basalt]

Why yes, yes I am, thanks for recognizing that

[digital glen]

just release SS december 31 2022 duh

[tribal merlin]

we need ss-discussion-discussion so we can talk about ss-discussion

[violet path]

no release it july 21st 2022

[violet path]

but of course

[sage berry]

let's talk about maps

[tawny basalt]

Maps are cool

[sage berry]

I wish in ss you won't have to buy the map of a new area to be able to start mapping it out

[tawny basalt]

You should just by paper and make the map yourself

[tribal merlin]

that's what I did for years

cuz games didn't have maps

[sage berry]

also basekit compass. this one is a no-brainer

[tawny basalt]

actually you buy maps from shakra

I think

[sage berry]

you can still buy maps from her

[indigo nymph]

And maybe the paper merchant should move across the map in new areas u haven't discovered

[digital glen]

i think people feel to scared without map, myself included, i would freak out trying to find a map when i got to a new area, and wouldnt explore it properly

[tribal merlin]

people really are spoiled by smartphones and gps

[indigo nymph]

Y do u guys need to know where everything is just explore and make a mental map

[sage berry]

I picture it working like this when you find a new area:
you can map it out, but if you find shakra you can pay her for her map, which reveals some areas of the map

[tribal merlin]

how about I draw the map and y'all buy it from me

[violet path]

Ok

[digital glen]

show me a sketch first

[tawny basalt]

Hello gelato

[sage berry]

TC was too conservative with maps in HK
and for what? it only made new players anxious and play like pussies cuz they were so afraid of getting lost

[tribal merlin]

Christopher Columbus moment

[wheat sail]

if only gamers were better

[radiant wraith]

The worst part about games is the players

[sage berry]

and it was also incredibly frustrating going into a new area only to find out you couldn't map it

[wheat sail]

devs have to make bad changes cause they are worried players will be too stupid

[radiant wraith]

This mentality sucks btw so don't upvote it

[tawny basalt]

And some of the companies making them

[tawny basalt]

But it’s also true

[wheat sail]

like the journalist who couldnt pass the cuphead tutorial

[sage berry]

well, games are made to be played, so yeah they should take into account how players will interact with their game so the experience as fun as possible

[radiant wraith]

Things can be designed badly, you can't always praise the game and blame the player

[wheat sail]

some people shouldnnt play games

i will gatekeep

[sage berry]

nah, let's not gatekeep games

[wheat sail]

but I shall

[digital glen]

i love how agressive this title is

[coarse leaf]

The worst part about games is their existence. Or any object's existence

[tawny basalt]

It doesn’t matter how much love and work you put into the game, there will still be many people who will hate it and say it’s garbage and all that for no good reason

[radiant wraith]

RW fans when the game tells you fast travels are consumable instead of making the player waste valuable time:

[digital glen]

the worst part about games is when they don't have grapple mechanics

[coarse leaf]

The mentality is literally false technically because players arent part of the game

[tawny basalt]

That’s true

[digital glen]

this is why hk, rw and celeste are bad and the messenger is superior

[sage berry]

if you ever went through the dev commentary of a Valve game, you should know about the lengths they go and the amount of shit they change just to accommodate for players. and I think this is an excellent practice

[radiant wraith]

The Messenger is good if you remove all the bad parts and keep all the good parts

[tawny basalt]

I just feel bad for the good people making the game that has people hating on something they work hard to make (I’m talking about the good people not the bad people)

[coarse leaf]

whats the convo about

Those are bad hahahha imagine society

[wheat sail]

celeste is great but then people dont care about meat boy 🤨

[sage berry]

it's no wonder valve's games are so good

they think about the player

[tawny basalt]

But it’s also hard to think about the player

[wheat sail]

valve actually tries to make a good game and not think a lot of making tons of money

[radiant wraith]

I'd rather watch paint dry than play Super Meat Boy

[wheat sail]

is watching paint that fun?

[tawny basalt]

Yes

[sage berry]

oh yeah absolutely, valve literally hires psychologists to and data analysts to work with their playtesters

[radiant wraith]

It's less frustrating for sure

[digital glen]

thanks for reminding me to play SMB Ian

[sage berry]

but a good way of thinking about the player is just having very early-on playtesting

[wheat sail]

[radiant wraith]

No Perukas, watch paint dry

[sage berry]

having feedback is massive

[violet path]

Who is evanporie

[tawny basalt]

Either way, time to go do things

@coarse leaf

[wheat sail]

Valve Carried Left 4 Dead

[tawny basalt]

sorry

[radiant wraith]

I'm Ianporie

[digital glen]

im not Wilson Fisk

[violet path]

Oh its the strawberry?

[radiant wraith]

Because Super Meat Boy is hell

and I'd rather do nothing than play it

[violet path]

Fun*

[wheat sail]

meat boy has a hell world

[radiant wraith]

I don't find it fun

[violet path]

Just like doing path of pain 117 times

[violet path]

Skisue

[radiant wraith]

It has a slipperiness and preciseness that pisses me off

[sage berry]

ok but let's not pretend valve isn't a company like any other
let's not forget their attempt at making a pay-to-win card game that failed and the times they got in trouble legally because of their refund policy

[violet path]

Thats nothing cmon

[digital glen]

wtf i thought this was about Super Monkey Ball

[radiant wraith]

I should just ignore the bandages I guess, and then it might be more fun

[wheat sail]

Artifact

[radiant wraith]

Git gud is so dumb

[violet path]

How so

There

[radiant wraith]

All hard games are good, because if you dislike them it's actually you who has to get good

[digital glen]

that's what im doing btw, ive been enjoying the game SO FAR

[wheat sail]

watching someone turn on instakill, infinite health, infinite jump hacks to beat the first boss of cuphead

[digital glen]

the original idea of gitgud has just turned into a different, more annoying thing

[violet path]

How hot

[coarse leaf]

I tried that and still can't do it

Please help this is hard game

Search YourCityName weather

[wispy stream]

what is the current conversation about

[violet path]

Idk

[coarse leaf]

About cuphead's weather

[wheat sail]

gamers

[wispy stream]

ew 🤮

[wheat sail]

devs ruin their games while trying to make their games more accessible for casuals

😎

[violet path]

Its 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 Celeste) rn for me

[coarse leaf]

what

[wispy stream]

celeste

[violet path]

Oh its celsius not celeste

[wheat sail]

omg rat

[tired cave]

For real?

[marsh ibex]

as botw yeah

march 2017

[tired cave]

I didn't know that

[marsh ibex]

they don’t give a fuck lmao

[coarse leaf]

This is what hailing evan does to you

[tired cave]

Isn't it February?

[coarse leaf]

kirb from silksong discussion

[marsh ibex]

That was switch version iirc

[coarse leaf]

Celeste starts living in ur head rent free

[tired cave]

Sorry I play on Switch so I thought

[marsh ibex]

ah nvm it was end of feb 2017

I got it wrong

[tired cave]

Np

[marsh ibex]

But that’s still really close

[radiant wraith]

Git gud made it so that hard games or bosses can't actually be criticized, because if you do, it's actually you who are the problem because you are not good enough

[brisk gazelle]

[violet path]

But like it is you that are the problem for not being good enough

[radiant wraith]

[digital glen]

bruhh

[coarse leaf]

simply hitless the boss with no upgrades and only then can you criticize it

[violet path]

^^^

[violet path]

You have to do it one handed though

[violet path]

And blindfolded

[wheat sail]

I get that

but i dont like it when the only criticism is "too hard"

im not even that good at games i like a challenge though 🤷

[violet path]

I mean yes some games are too hard

But hk and meat boy arent among those games

[digital glen]

ok i don't have rad on absrad i guess i can't say that it's bad how she can spawn orbs off screen that comes 800 miiles per hour against you

[fiery coral]

You don't need to because it's easy to find other reasons to critcise AbsBad

[violet path]

Oh cool unq is here

[violet path]

Absgood, anybad

[wheat sail]

yes it can get too far. absrad isn't simply 'too hard' some of the design just isnt fair

[fiery coral]

AbsBad, AnyBad

[digital glen]

the problem isn't being too hard, the problem is someone saying: this thing is badly designed when it actually is and a bunch of people say gitgud seriously

[wheat sail]

besides, its designed to be unbalanced

[fiery coral]

AbsLazy

[violet path]

Actually i changed my mind anygood

Atobad

[subtle flint]

i just woke up

and its 5 pm

[violet path]

Hi sam

[dusty nimbus]

Hello active frens

[subtle flint]

hi toast

[wheat sail]

hey sam

[violet path]

Well absrad isnt that hard, what youre saying really applies more to anyrad

[dusty nimbus]

[wheat sail]

yeah i dont play those mods but i remember one that was super unfair looking

[dusty nimbus]

That's always a pain, only thing you can do at 5 pm is exist until time for what you want to do comes

[subtle flint]

i need to wait until anm acceptable time to sleep

then go back to snoring

[wheat sail]

sam sleep at 10-1

then wake up in the morning ::D

[subtle flint]

i wanna turn around my sleeping schedule atm

cus its kinda fucked

i fell asleep at like 8-9 am

[wheat sail]

degen hours

[subtle flint]

truly

[dusty nimbus]

Just don't sleep like a true Zote

[digital glen]

ok are we worried about the rosaries system or not?

[rapid topaz]

I'm not

[wheat sail]

im not worried

im worried about our society though

[rapid topaz]

We'll find an infinite rosary glitch, that's fine

[wheat sail]

they spent all this time on silksong surely it isnt that buggy

[rapid topaz]

watch me noclip into the citadel

🏃‍♂️

[dusty nimbus]

Probably decreases your rosaries to the negatives

[wheat sail]

https://tenor.com/view/sm64-blg-super-mario-jump-gif-15897978

[digital glen]

can't wait to BLJ with Hornet

im just worried that losing half of the rosaries will make players too scared of dying, and when inevitably doing so, it makes a frustrating experience

[subtle flint]

skissue?

[wispy stream]

blj

[digital glen]

or when you get in a boss, you will probably want to spent all your rosaries or turn them all into strings

[charred heron]

tf is a rosarie?

[wispy stream]

currency in ss

[subtle flint]

[wispy stream]

i think

or something you use to fix your tools

[charred heron]

thats what theyre called?

[olive bobcat]

Yep

[digital glen]

it's the currency, yes

[wispy stream]

there is rosary shards and rosary strings

[olive bobcat]

Rosaries are the money, Shell Shards are used to rebuild tools

[wispy stream]

dont knwo the diference tho

[wispy stream]

oh wait its shell shards

[digital glen]

you dont lose rosary string when you die

[olive bobcat]

Rosaries are lost on death, so the Rosary String is to keep them on death

[digital glen]

i don't want the "oh god, i got to boss, time to find or go back to a bench and make rosaries strings or just spend all"

[mortal grove]

im not sure what a solution to tht would be

or maybe my brain is just slow

[wheat sail]

just shame whoever does that

[last steeple]

Maybe it would be to just be prepared and think ahead?

[wheat sail]

[digital glen]

it seems more of a inconvenience than anything, and what does that add to the game

[wheat sail]

just make it so you get rewarded for not using strings

risk reward

like you get less rosaries if you have strings on or something

[digital glen]

and if you don't do that you just lose the money that you've been getting from that area, making it stale and hard to buy more expensive things

[cerulean sable]

honestly i really like the tension of losing shit without actually losing shit

[verbal trench]

same

[cerulean sable]

like in stalker, when an emission hits, the first thing it tells you is to find shelter and since the storms are unscripted, you actually feel this tension despite the part you can just reload the game anyway

[digital glen]

i don't know common rosaries strings will be, and we don't know what's the relics system in this game

[verbal trench]

it’s annoying but like, a good kind of annoying, if you know what i mean

[wheat sail]

so lets not worry about it

actually nevermind why would i say that

this is ss discussion

[verbal trench]

gives dying more of an impact

[digital glen]

ok but you do seem to lose it all in ss

[silver oak]

Or if there will be one

[digital glen]

right

[silver oak]

We have rosary strings which act similar but are reusable

Basically a bank

[digital glen]

the hk death system is fine for me, and i understand the idea of making death having more of a impact, but i don't understand where they are going with the system in SS

[silver oak]

Pay a price to string up your money so you don’t lose it on death, and use it later by taking it off the string

Exactly like a bank

[digital glen]

and just like a bank it sucks

[lament lotus]

political

[digital glen]

or don't do it and loose it all?

it's inevitable that'll loose all the rosaries you're holding when you get to a boss

[finite ingot]

so whats the deal with silksong's release date?

[coarse leaf]

die

[digital glen]

i just don't get why are you even given the option?

[rapid topaz]

worst scenario will be "surprise" bosses

"Oh this place looks cool..
wtf"

[digital glen]

i wanna be exited when i get to a boss, and not stressed out that i have to go back to a bench and string it or just loose it

[rapid topaz]

I mean if you can't escape the boss arena your rosaries are likely doomed

yeah

[rapid topaz]

No infos yet, except "within the next 12 monthes" that happened last month, so now it's more like "within the next 11 monthes"

[sage glade]

banks give interest

[coarse leaf]

i hope theres unintentional skips in ss

[sage glade]

rosary investment inc. when

[digital glen]

and intentionals too, like hk

[rapid topaz]

even there it's not a 100% true statement but it came from Xbox so I guess it's reliable

[sage glade]

simo confirmed that statement

[rapid topaz]

ah yes

[dusty nimbus]

No, they take it from you

[sage glade]

not true, millibelle said otherwise when i beat her up requested alternative policy options

[digital glen]

I KNOW

but i don't want to make rosary strings every time

or bother to make them before a boss

it just seems annoying more than anything for me

[rapid topaz]

Money keeper fans vs. Chad millibelle's shell golf players enjoyers

[digital glen]

if it that's easy, losing rosaries when you die just seems redundant

[radiant wraith]

They should add a banking system that has lots of paperwork and layers of bureaucracy you need to use it

Wait in line for 30 minutes to make a transference

[crisp drift]

Realism 100

[digital glen]

ok and that's what im trying to understand

[rapid topaz]

Everytime you'll use the bank you need to do quick maths

[radiant wraith]

Sign into fixed time investments

[digital glen]

i don't understand that

[rapid topaz]

no u

[burnt topaz]

thats what speculation is

ok

[rapid topaz]

Silk

[coarse leaf]

Not song

[radiant wraith]

Speculation should be part of system, with the multiple currency systems constantly changing in value relative to each other, so at time it's to have one and sometimes the other

[tawny basalt]

Okay

You can't speculate much with them

[tawny basalt]

Either way time to leave bye guys I just came here cause I was pinged and Evan told me to die

[gilded adder]

@coarse leaf
The Zero games will be what I play after Library of Ruina

[digital glen]

i love love sekiro, but i think that game has the worst death punishment system from all the soulsborne games

[burnt topaz]

i guess the idea is that the geo and shade system became redundant during the endgame but that was also a mix of not having anything else to buy

[radiant wraith]

Because there are no soul banks for depositing and credit in Drangleic

[coarse leaf]

The Mega Man X9 fan will be happy with that

[velvet sentinel]

hes literally rocket powered dragon bomb speed hyper blast

[radiant wraith]

Making NPCs suffer because you die in the game is hilarious

[tawny basalt]

Yes, but also a friend

[gilded adder]

Wait

[tawny basalt]

Either way, bye

cause he ambushes

[tawny basalt]

[velvet sentinel]

also bye

[burnt topaz]

[radiant wraith]

Goodbye Tonio

[gilded adder]

@coarse leaf Do you know about Megaman X Corrupted? It's a fan game that's been in production for like a decade+ and looks great. It's got some metroidvania aspects to it like non-linearity and a big open world where all the levels are inter-connected.

[digital glen]

my problem is not too much about death rot, i think thats pretty funny too, but losing xp and half of the sen is really weird

[radiant wraith]

Oh yeah

[velvet sentinel]

jonny you in chat rn right

#hk-meme message as a mod. Is this allowed?

[olive bobcat]

Jonny rn

[gilded adder]

I don't know what this means.

[velvet sentinel]

kinda spammy but its hk meme

[gilded adder]

but I will take it

[olive bobcat]

[gloomy oar]

That pineapple will most likely fall out

[burnt topaz]

that is a very orange pineapple

[olive bobcat]

I'm getting great mileage out of Danasmirk

[digital glen]

Quin, you sait it like hk meme is lawless land

[olive bobcat]

It didn't
