[crystal field]

i expected it to hit a lot harder

[tidal raven]

I hate 5v5
So much
Off tank is my favorite role in games that support it, like paladins

[median yew]

Winton is the dive comp leader

[proud wren]

there's so many cool weapons, but not enough blood rocks

[tidal raven]

Khan my beloved

[civic quail]

Awww have you played Hotline Miami??? I love Jacket

[crystal field]

theres only one blood rock per playthrough from what i recall

[median yew]

1 and 2 and I still haven't stopped

It's my current hyperfixation

[crystal field]

also one in dlc

[proud wren]

2 if you have dlc

[tidal raven]

Skinfinder
Jacket pfp

[proud wren]

you can also buy one for 60 insight

but like who has 60 insight

[civic quail]

Awww if you want you could dm me and tell me about it! I actually got super fixated on the games recently, and would love to hear your experience

[proud wren]

most of the time i run 0-10 insight

[crystal field]

even if i had 60 insight id spend it on blood beast pellets

[median yew]

Lots of dying then getting good at it to put it short lmfao

[crystal field]

or one of the sick ass armor sets

[civic quail]

Trust me, that's very familiar 😭

Especially playing on hard oh my lord

[crystal field]

another thing the armor sets are also super cool the game just oozes style from its every corner

[proud wren]

there's not enough to spend 60 insight tho

[tidal raven]

Its like Katana Zero
Dying is part of the process

[median yew]

You can't lock onto targets on hard and it makes me HAJEDIDOOX

[tidal raven]

Its like Roguelikes but good

[crystal field]

whats your fav set

[proud wren]

uhh idk

[civic quail]

LMAO I ACTUALLY ONLY LEARNED HOW TO LOCK ON AFTER BEATINF BOTH GAMES

[proud wren]

i don't really have a favorite "set"

[civic quail]

So I was just free shooting it

[proud wren]

though most of the time i just run executioner garb and pyramid hed helm

[median yew]

Jesus 😭

[crystal field]

i like henryks set and marias, also the pyramid head is cool cuz it clanks against the ladders while sliding down

[median yew]

The military missions in 2 are a pain oml

[civic quail]

Honestly my least favorites. I love the music but HATE the missions

[tidal raven]

Wear an armor set for stats? Broke
Wear an armor for fashion? Woke

[median yew]

Those were ppls favorites too 😭

[civic quail]

LOOK COOL THEME AND METAPHOR, BUT I DON'T CARE, THE BIG ASS SOLDIER KEEPS EATING MY BULLETS 😭

[tidal raven]

Hotline Maimi fans just enjoy suffering, clearly

[median yew]

THE FLAMETHROWER IS SO HELPFUL

[civic quail]

IT IS, BUT IM A BUM WHO IS SUPER AMMO CONSERVATIVE

[civic quail]

Hey the store mission was fun!

[tidal raven]

I family share with my brother
Who has Hotline Maimi

I could play it
Idk if id be into it tho

[civic quail]

It's not for everyone

[tidal raven]

Ive been getting into casual games of recent

[median yew]

I thought it wasn't for me

[tidal raven]

But I like a game with a good challenge

[median yew]

Then I got addicted and learned every part of the lore

[tidal raven]

I know alot of the lore

Seen videos on it

Its
Intresting to say the least

[civic quail]

Ahhh I love the little bits of lore

[median yew]

A silly organization that hates Russians

[tidal raven]

I know HM2 has workshop support too

Ofc its all cursed

[civic quail]

And a world where somehow the soviets won

[median yew]

Right???

50 blessings made that possible

[tidal raven]

I love stories with background politics
Real life or not

[civic quail]

I thought 50 blessings was a grass roots nationalist response to the Russians winning World War 3

And then everyone died!

[median yew]

Basically but they also caused the us to get nuked

[civic quail]

That too! But basically also caused the world to die

Ah that reminds me of the end of Hotline Miami 2

The scene with Richter and his mom

[median yew]

I love how biker is sitting outside of the court house with the jacket court case

[civic quail]

YES, and all the hidden Easter eggs you can find as the journalist dude, like interviewing Biker

[median yew]

The journalist is so fun cause he's easy to play and the combos are easier due to unloading the guns

[civic quail]

I honestly liked his levels. It was refreshing going non-lethal

[median yew]

Exactly!!

[small wren]

Ah, the adrenaline rush of killing mob after mob lest you die in one hit
Fun little couple of games

Everyone knew it was coming to game pass but not this soon

[warm maple]

The sooner the better

[bitter granite]

Usually when something gets leaked Xbox just decides to announce it

So expect the announcement within the next week

[warm maple]

Maybe they planned to leak it for hype

If it's real that is

[bitter granite]

if they do do that than it clearly didn’t work out for Persona 3

No hyped for official announcement because of leaks

[bitter granite]

The sooner the less people pay blizzard

[warm maple]

Indeed

It might almost convince me to get game pass

[civic quail]

But the silliness is incredible

[bitter granite]

Work at blizzard, I think you’ll like the environment

@proud wren

[proud wren]

such a shame strength doesn't do shit for gauss

[hollow mirage]

does it not make your 1 sprint faster?

[proud wren]

no it just makes the crash explosion do more damage

[hollow mirage]

sunder

[proud wren]

doesn't help it at all

[hollow mirage]

so you wanna tell me strength just doesnt make it deal more damage in the slightest?

[crisp hound]

Sunder doesn't need strength

[modern schooner]

Ooh
Season 2 of sonic prime comes out Thursday

[proud wren]

^^

[crisp hound]

Just cast it twice

[hollow mirage]

but be happy you have it?

[proud wren]

i never run sunder in any of my builds anyway

[crisp hound]

Its exponential(?) scaling with repeated casts

[proud wren]

my only config on gauss that has thermal sunder doesn't even have any mods on it

it's an empty config

[hollow mirage]

another win for Harrow in my eyes then, strength actually means somethin

[crisp hound]

Sunder is better on frames that aren't gauss

[hollow mirage]

like Harrow

[proud wren]

yeah exactly

[crisp hound]

Or titania

[hollow mirage]

I prefer Null Star for titania

[warm maple]

Null Star Titania is strong

[proud wren]

gauss actually gets some sweet bonuses to his sunder because of his redline though

i thought you can do it without redline but ig not

i never use sunder so i wouldn't know

[hollow mirage]

whoa, torid is weird

Im giving its normal stuff a try, and its kinda destroying

the little clouds it leaves behind can crit, so they can slash from HM

and it STICKS to them, so they cant outrun the cloud

also really fucks with ragdolls

[atomic spear]

torid is the short range phage or is that synapse?

synapse

very cool

and those would be orange crits quite often, but I forgot carrier

lol this all happened way before the games release if they truly cared whyd they even make a contract with them in the first place

also microsofts the company that tried to buy activision with all the controversy going on so i doubt they really care

[bitter granite]

Microsoft wants to fix them and ABK realized they were too deep in shit so when Microsoft offer to buy them they jumped at the chance to

They hope Microsoft will help them recover

[small wren]

If they didn't know, Omocat made sure everybody knew by wearing a shirt with that one word

Also, apparently they've delisted the game in PS and Nintendo storefronts as well

Damn all the consoles came together, and said aight we late but NOW fuck em 😭

They probably didn't know until just now 🤷‍♂️

I had no idea Omocat was like that until today

[bitter granite]

My favorite fallout game, Fallout 75

[near sentinel]

Fall out more like….fell off

[crystal field]

fallout76 is not a fallout game

[hollow mirage]

well, it is

[crystal field]

it just has the same name

i dont think people played fallout for the rpg elements until fallout 4

[hollow mirage]

and 76 is very similar to 4

same gameplay and graphics, but with some changed progression.
some better, some worse

[crystal field]

the idea of an online fallout game without npcs and factions is just stupid

[hollow mirage]

when was the last time you saw anything about 76?

[crystal field]

on release

[hollow mirage]

there’s factions and I think 3 separate story lines

a main one, then one with the BoS, and another i can’t remember because i ignored it probably

there’s 2 factions you can gain reputation for, which unlocks new gear like gauss shotgun and gauss minigun

[crystal field]

even then it wont have any effect on the world around you so why bother, the most engaging part was choosing sides and knowing the effects it would have on the world around you

[hollow mirage]

that wouldn’t work

[crystal field]

theres no way choosing a side is gonna have an effect on an online world

yea

[hollow mirage]

issue I have with the old Fallout games like NV, is the only thing they have going for them is the writing, while everything else just sucks

[crystal field]

also apparently 76 ruined some of the lore but i didnt look into it

like power armor and what not

[hollow mirage]

Fallout 4 and 76 is the best iteration of power armor the franchise has ever seen, ngl

[crystal field]

i think they gave more closure to it

[hollow mirage]

while the fusion cores stuff is weird, they gotta be balanced for gameplay somehow

[crystal field]

but i will never forgive fallout 4 for giving you a power armor right from the first mission

[hollow mirage]

that is silly

[crystal field]

in the previous fallout games and in canon you need power armor training to pilot the armor

which only the brotherhood of steel is capable of teaching

[hollow mirage]

76 I believe doesn’t let you use any power armor pieces until level 20-25

which, doesn’t take long really

in Fallout4 though, you were a soldier that fought in a war. he could have had the training from then

[crystal field]

i mean they made it in 18 months cut them some slack

and theres a shitton of cut content

i think theres an hour long video going over cut content

[hollow mirage]

and even if you get the armor early on, you won’t have the cores to utilize it much

so it stopped me, personally, from using it more until I had some cores saved

I think it’s still balanced and is more so just in the game so early on to be a cool section of gameplay

“check out how we reworked power armor, and go 1v1 a death claw”
it’s cool the first time, but only the first time

[crystal field]

https://youtu.be/BZJ7uDAhekw

[hollow mirage]

tying power armor to maybe when the BoS comes with the Prydwen, would make sense

but then that would skip half the power armors

no need to get T45, T51, or Raider when you’re just given T60 with how the game is currently. that would need to be changed too

[crystal field]

is the enclave power armor in 76

[hollow mirage]

XO-1 is the enclave armor

[crystal field]

yes

idk how they fix the timeline and lore with this stuff

the enclave went extinct on fallout 2

[hollow mirage]

it’s called X01 prototype, and it’s not the best in the game but you get it through joining the enclave

which is also what lets you access launching nukes

[crystal field]

when does fallout 76 take place

[hollow mirage]

the enclave in 76 is just a single AI guy

i forget, probably 2076 i dunno. let’s look it up

2102

25y after the great war

so it takes place before FO4

by about 175y or so

[crystal field]

so the enclave didnt even exist

[hollow mirage]

[crystal field]

and super mutants..

super mutants were created by the master in fallout 1

which takes place after 76

[hollow mirage]

says here the enclave started before the great war

just lookin at some wiki page about em

[crystal field]

maybe they rose in popularity as time went on

[hollow mirage]

and they were in Fallout 3

[crystal field]

theyre the bad guys on fallout 2 and basically rule the wasteland in that game

by the end of the game you kill their leader and blow up their main base

maybe a couple survived

[hollow mirage]

i still prefer how their armor looked in 3 over X01 though

there was a mod that added a suit that looked much more like FO3 enclave armor, which I think I’ve seen as a cosmetic in 76

[crystal field]

i dont really like how the enclave power armor looks in general

the mask looks like a bug

but it has better stats compared to the others so

[hollow mirage]

think this is it

[crystal field]

they redesigned it for fo3 i think

[hollow mirage]

in 76 I have the 2nd best suit, the Ultracite. The T65 is locked behind a ton of grind

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/6/6b/F76WL_T65_Power_Armor.png/revision/latest?cb=20200420180355

it is ugly as hell

[crystal field]

[hollow mirage]

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout_gamepedia/images/1/19/FO76_Ultracite_Power_Armor.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20190329063602

ultracite looks like another T51 kinda

[crystal field]

that looks like the typical bos power armor

[hollow mirage]

https://thenerdstash.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/How-to-get-the-Hellcat-Power-Armor-in-Fallout-76-2-1.jpg

Hellcat, highest energy defense armor you can get

[crystal field]

where do these fit in the lore like who made these

[hollow mirage]

i dunno. you get Hellcat from the BoS questline

but then like…you’re also just given a suit of Ultracite way earlier on which is gonna be better I think, because higher phys protection

[crystal field]

i guess it makes sense for bos since theyre always inventing stuff

[hollow mirage]

I’m not much of a Power Armor user in 76 anyways

never was in 4 either

[crystal field]

does 76 still have the battle royale mode

[crystal field]

idk how it works on 76 but in earlier games it just acted like normal armor, there was no reason to not have it on unless you didnt have training

[hollow mirage]

I think it does as a limited rotating event

[crystal field]

doesnt it slow you down on the newer games

something like that

also needs fuel

[frosty yoke]

Meanwhile Im still clinging to Fallout 3.

[hollow mirage]

well it’s similar to 4, has higher defense than most armors and increased carry weight, unless you’re wearing armor all with deep pocketed and a backpack

should be similar or quicker movespeed. hard to tell, mutations effect player stats like movement speed

[crystal field]

i never played fallout 3 for some reason it always crashes on start up for me

[hollow mirage]

one thing that was fun to do in 76 was stalk a friend while wearing the chinese stealth suit

[frosty yoke]

I just have very fond memories from my Xbox 360 days, custom music, and Fallout 3. To be fair though, Fallout 3 Ost is stellar.

[crystal field]

every fallout ost is great tbh

even the first game

[hollow mirage]

only thing I remember from FO3 was being told to put in a code I don’t ever remember being told so I sent my follower to do it, but then the dialogue option told me the code, so I reverted save and did it myself.

[frosty yoke]

True. It just works.

[crystal field]

not to mention the radio songs

[hollow mirage]

so I guess my character just knew the code while I was never actually told it. great fucking game

[frosty yoke]

I also never got around to doing New Vegas dlc. . . . I really should do that sometime.

[crystal field]

lmao its way worse on fallout 1

you have to do everything manually doesnt matter if you meet the requirements

if you see a locked door your character wont lockpick it automatically

you have to go to the skills tab double click lockpick then click the door

[hollow mirage]

that’s reminds me, for some reason, but VATS in 76 is my favorite

it doesn’t slow time, obviously, which I like

and it’s kinda broken with shotguns because it makes all pellets hit

[crystal field]

also special dialogue wasnt highlighted so you never know if you failed a speech test

[hollow mirage]

oh yea, 76 actually has speech checks too.
I remember some people disliking FO4 not having them

[crystal field]

fo4 did have them, but they were pointless

[hollow mirage]

I was able to entirely evade combat at one point in the story because I had high intelligence

[crystal field]

its just for extra caps even if you failed there was no punishment

in older games if you asked for more caps and you failed you would aggro the npcs

most of the time

[hollow mirage]

I too enjoy getting attacked for asking for a little more pay

[crystal field]

it was a lot more black and white on the older games

you either passed or you failed and get gunned down

[crystal field]

all of them are pretty good

joshua single handedly makes all the dlcs worth

except the heist one, thats ones ok...

[small wren]

Ripbozo, rest in piss, FTC won't be missed

[bitter granite]

Bout to see every cod hit game pass

[half zinc]

i mean, has microsoft won against uk?

[bitter granite]

Microsoft gave up on the uk

Best choice for the uk is to just agree with Microsoft cause they are just 100% wrong in their stance just from facts along

get the facts right before you talk your a whole ass government

But enough about them

Now we need to see how Jim Cryan feels about this

[half zinc]

i mean microsoft has like 7 days until they pay like 3 billion

[bitter granite]

For what?

[half zinc]

sony just said that if microsoft acquires ab, they wont give them details on ps6

[half zinc]

some cutoff time or something i dont know

[bitter granite]

Typical

[half zinc]

then sony complained about how ab games wont come on playstation

like my guys, do you hear yourself

[bitter granite]

Sony doesn’t know anything

[frosty yoke]

Maybe now games from 10 years ago wont cost 60 bucks anymore too.

[bitter granite]

Still dumb that they are

[warm maple]

Explain plz

[bitter granite]

FTC lost and Microsoft is now acquiring ABK

[warm maple]

Is this the good ending?

[bitter granite]

Moment they announced it ABK stocks sky rocketed

[bitter granite]

Yes

[warm maple]

[bitter granite]

More gaming for more people ending

[warm maple]

I only care about Microsoft possibly cutting off the UK

[bitter granite]

uk is to be determined

[frosty yoke]

While I dont care about the politics, this might be a great thing for Blizzard. CoD will more than likely hit gamepass, more funding for Diablo Im sure. Pogs all around.

[half zinc]

i just hope diablo 4 goes on gamepass

[frosty yoke]

Already own it, its not all that lol

[half zinc]

but i wanna play it

[frosty yoke]

THIS is the shit I hope gets fixed. Actually 13 years old, it needs to stop.

And thats on 50% sale....

[steady spoke]

Don't forget that some of them are not safe to play without modding them

[half zinc]

why the fuck is a 13 yo game in a yearly series 40$

[frosty yoke]

Better question, why the fuck isnt it bundled with the DLC?

[frosty yoke]

[crystal field]

half of them are either unplayable or unsafe and filled with modders without a third party client

[frosty yoke]

Pretty much. CoD has fallen so far. . .

[steady spoke]

I'll probably play some of the campaigns in them

I heard that infinite warfare is pretty good

[frosty yoke]

Id love to play through ALL the campaigns again. This is huge. Probably wont take effect for some time though.

[half zinc]

if activision was a decent company, they would repack the older games into a collection and sell it for 40-60$
shame we dont live in that wor;d

[crystal field]

if they were a decent company they wouldnt keep spitting in their player bases face

[frosty yoke]

Like Pre Ps3 / 360 era ones? I could get behind that.

[crystal field]

ignoring them for years instead of actual fixes adding 80 bundles per season

[frosty yoke]

Kinda like the Halo MC collection.

[crystal field]

also omori never got taken off steam lol

i doubt they care

[half zinc]

i thought like 2008-2014

[half zinc]

why would omori get taken off steam?

[frosty yoke]

I could see that.

[proud wren]

close

[warm maple]

Imagine thinking a 13 year old game would go down in price

[frosty yoke]

Ikr right. Nintendo does it, everyone else should

[proud wren]

dark souls 1

[crystal field]

some drama abt omocat the dev being a shotacon

microsoft supposedly took omori off their store because of that

[half zinc]

whats that

[frosty yoke]

[crystal field]

[warm maple]

Yikes

[crystal field]

but idk microsoft is the same company that tried to buy activision during the entire controversy and this stuff happened years before the game was ever made

so i doubt they care abt the controversy

but who knows maybe sa that leads to suicide is okay but shotacon is where they draw the line

[neon pine]

i think its more how much money a company generates rather than their moral values

activision still racks in a monstrous amount of cash

[crystal field]

yea omori just wasnt making them enough money i guess

[neon pine]

omocat, eh

[half zinc]

yeah, but activision blizzard owns cod, king, overwatch, etc

[crystal field]

so they dropped it after the contract

[half zinc]

omocat made 1 game that was popular in a specific niche

[neon pine]

microsoft would buy a deuce on a pedestal if it earned them enough money

[crisp hound]

The urge to put 5 cd shards on kullervo

Ultra rare UK w

[small wren]

Good, UK isn't completely stupid

[gritty summit]

[tidal raven]

The UK is completely stupid
Their 2 braincells just happened to come up with something good this time

[warm maple]

We barely have 0.2 braincells

[digital hamlet]

what the heck even is the uk

[warm maple]

A hellscape

[gritty summit]

ultrakill

[small wren]

They're not completely stupid, because if they were, they wouldn't be trying to work out a solution with Microsoft as we type

[warm maple]

Have you seen the average British guy?

[small wren]

Fair, they can still screw up again

[warm maple]

I dunno, we're pretty screwed already

[proud wren]

no i don't live in the uk

[warm maple]

[small wren]

They can still accept the merger 🤷‍♂️

[warm maple]

I guess

[gritty summit]

nuke the uk

[small wren]

Take away all loicenses for knoives

[proud wren]

eventually the UK is gonna become like bloodborne

[small wren]

Or like Lies of P

Everybody being a puppet

[proud wren]

boris johnson is gonna discover the old blood in his basement

[warm maple]

The UK is bloodborn

[tidal raven]

[warm maple]

I feel like the amount I shit talk the UK would get me into trouble if I wasn't Bri*ish

[proud wren]

true

moose i hear that the UK has pubs pretty much around every corner

is this true

[drifting kernel]

on a scale of 10 - 11 how much of an alcoholic is the average br*t

[tidal raven]

[onyx loom]

this is not UK exclusive

[proud wren]

ig depending on where you live

in my town there's a total of one pub

[onyx loom]

my village has four

• a hotel with a bar people use as a pub

[proud wren]

LETS GOOOOOOOOO

[proud wren]

dunkey what is this

[modern schooner]

Are there even 10 humanoid female mario characters

[proud wren]

uhh i don't know

but who said they had to be humanoid

[crystal field]

its a parody video lol, some guy made a video about 10 hottest sonic female characters

[modern schooner]

[crystal field]

the difference is that one wasnt satire

[modern schooner]

[onyx loom]

and it's the best video ever

the sonic one as in

[tidal raven]

Wait
Is that the Hot Chick Heaven video or is that something else

i'll see posts from people saying how they got to MR30 in only like 1000 hours.

then theres me, who took over 3k

[drifting kernel]

hold on microsoft owns toys for bob now

i BEG for skylanders to return

[digital hamlet]

anyone got any suggestions for the last few days of summer sale

[crisp hound]

Outer wilds

[digital hamlet]

game pass

[proud wren]

they were on that grindset

[crisp hound]

It is?

[proud wren]

TRUE

[hollow mirage]

could nab Watch Dogs 2

[digital hamlet]

there's a LOT of stuff on game pass

[proud wren]

please play outer wilds

and make sure you do it with controller

[digital hamlet]

its on game pass i'm talking about summer sale

[proud wren]

i know

[crisp hound]

Keyboard is fine

[proud wren]

but you should still play it

[proud wren]

it's meh on the ship

[hollow mirage]

you ever play Dying Light?

[digital hamlet]

nah

[crisp hound]

Skyrim

[hollow mirage]

the 1st is 70% off and 2 is 50%.
both great games

[crisp hound]

Again if you already have it

[digital hamlet]

Also on game pass

[proud wren]

mortal sin is on sale

[crisp hound]

Katana zero

[proud wren]

not for a terribly large discount but it's still a discount

[digital hamlet]

400 steam reviews:

[proud wren]

it's a super good game

[digital hamlet]

oh yeah forgot about that

[proud wren]

it's criminally unknown i tell ya

[gritty summit]

wrong, it has to have 100k steam reviews and be top 1 sellers for it to be a good game

[drifting kernel]

destiny 2

[digital hamlet]

die

[drifting kernel]

[proud wren]

i suppose you're right

[digital hamlet]

sample size is important

[crisp hound]

Buy 3 copies of terraria

[digital hamlet]

if it's too low you could get a situation where only people who look for the game have played it and reviewed it, leading to an artifically high score

[crisp hound]

Also nier automata

[digital hamlet]

all my friends have it

[hollow mirage]

theres such thing as a hidden gem

less reviews doesnt mean bad game

[crisp hound]

50% off rn

[digital hamlet]

the internet has a way of finding them

[gritty summit]

i would say 400 reviews being 97% positive is a good indication on the game being potentionally good. If you don't like it you can still refund

[proud wren]

^^^

[crisp hound]

Play nier automata

[hollow mirage]

less than 4k reviews and this is one of my favorite racing games, with the best soundtrack of any game I have ever played

[gritty summit]

nier automata is S tier

[crisp hound]

"The robussy game"

[hollow mirage]

genuinely, THE BEST soundtrack

[crisp hound]

And also depression

[gritty summit]

and existential crisis

[warm maple]

What game?

[digital hamlet]

game called 'ARMORED HEAD' has 881 positive reviews and 1 negative review and i wouldn't call it a masterpiece lmao

[hollow mirage]

masterpiece is subjective

[crisp hound]

It is

[crystal field]

valve collection if u dont have the games in it

[gritty summit]

i never said masterpiece, i said potential to be a good game

[crystal field]

its down to 5 bucks from 125

[onyx loom]

me when i play a game and decide if i like it on my own

[hollow mirage]

a game doesnt need to have 500k reviews to be a good game.

lower your standards.

[gritty summit]

how dare you have an opinion

[onyx loom]

sory

[crisp hound]

Nier is peak tbh

[digital hamlet]

it needs to have at least 3000 with very positive before i consider it tbh

[onyx loom]

yeah so my favourite games are detroit become human and the last of us and god of war reboot

[warm maple]

All games are bad, go touch grass

[digital hamlet]

you've seen the garbage that somehow gets 'mixed'

[onyx loom]

have you considered deciding if it looks interesting and then playing it yourself

[warm maple]

[hollow mirage]

Grass? You mean Oberon's Hallowed Ground?

[warm maple]

[crisp hound]

Touch grass no thanks I prefer touching ass

[drifting kernel]

hey thats my line

[warm maple]

Touch grass, eat ass, sled fast

[digital hamlet]

i have considered it and decided to rely on popularity as a basic and important metric

[gritty summit]

[hollow mirage]

go play JellyCar Worlds, only 383 reviews :)

[warm maple]

[onyx loom]

important sure but not the be all end all

[drifting kernel]

go play this small unknown indie game called elden ring

[warm maple]

[digital hamlet]

if i see a masterpiece and it has 12 steam reviews i'm gonna be a little suspicious :/

[warm maple]

Ever heard of this unknown indie gem called Deep Rock Galactic?

[onyx loom]

what does this mean how in this situation do you know you're seeing a masterpiece

[gritty summit]

i wish more people knew about it, such an unknown gem

[warm maple]

Truly

[onyx loom]

that is such a nothing example

[crisp hound]

I am

Just bought it

[warm maple]

How do you know something is a masterpiece when there's only 12 reviews?

[crisp hound]

I have crippling skill issue

[onyx loom]

if something piques your interest, look up gameplay, look at screenshots and trailers and shit, decide if it's the kind of thing you might be into then give it a go

doesn't steam have like a 24 hour refund thing?

[digital hamlet]

i'm saying it's very important to consider that if a game is actually good it'll have a decent following by means of quality alone

[digital hamlet]

2 hour, so basically no lol

[gritty summit]

my only issues with Nier Automata were on the technical side for the PC port when the game came out. I believe most of the issues have been adressed, plus there are some community mods that make the experience way better. Other than that i loved everything about it

[onyx loom]

okay two hour, but still, you can give something a bit of a go like

[crystal field]

2 hours of playtime 2 weeks of owning the game

[atomic spear]

bombastine pfp

[warm maple]

[atomic spear]

def trustworthy

[warm maple]

Look closer

[hollow mirage]

I made it

[onyx loom]

maybe not a massive sprawling open world like elden ring, but like, a small game with minimal reviews, you could probably get a decent understanding of whether or not it's your thing within two hours

[proud wren]

depends on the game

[gritty summit]

my name is bombastine, yo

[digital hamlet]

if you can get a good picture of how good a full game is in two hours it's not big enough to be worth tbh

[proud wren]

^^

[atomic spear]

that's flawed logic

[digital hamlet]

example, inscryption

there are reasons that refunding it is a really bad idea

[gritty summit]

wait what is this, i thought it was the skyler meme

[hollow mirage]

Jim Carrey

[atomic spear]

by that logic noone should ever watch a movie that isn't 3 hours

[warm maple]

https://tenor.com/view/jim-carrey-grinch-smile-gif-23487341

[gritty summit]

is it the grinch

[warm maple]

Yee

[gritty summit]

grynch how do you say it

[digital hamlet]

you can't refund movies bro

[gritty summit]

gronch

[atomic spear]

just walk out

ask for money back

[digital hamlet]

not how that works

[proud wren]

that's not a refund

[warm maple]

So you're saying if a game isn't at least 2 hours long, it's not good?

[proud wren]

and you can't do that, at least not without looking like a dick

"the sonic movie wasn't nearly as good as i thought it would be! i want my money back!"

[digital hamlet]

well that's not what i was saying but i also do believe that

[atomic spear]

so you'd see morbius at full rpice and not get a refund?

[proud wren]

YES

i would willingly watch morbius a second time it's so funny

[onyx loom]

my point is that you can't fully dismiss a game based on it not having very many reviews, it's a factor i'm not denying that, but it shouldn't be the number one deciding thing

[atomic spear]

the whole circus

[warm maple]

Morbin time

[onyx loom]

in fairness if you've done this you're a cunt

[atomic spear]

i disagree

[proud wren]

true

[atomic spear]

and if you think anyone is gonna judge you for it, tht's paranoid

[digital hamlet]

of course, but there's a certain weight that it carries
in the extreme cases, such as like 12 reviews, it becomes one of the biggest factors

[crisp hound]

I've seen it like 5 times

[gritty summit]

i always thought your pfp was an edited version of this

[warm maple]

It wasn't :3

[digital hamlet]

the reverse also applies
if you see a game that looks mid, but has 300k 99% positive reviews, it's pretty dang trustworthy

[hollow mirage]

I could've done that, but my first thought was Jim Carrey

[warm maple]

It do look similar but Jim Carrey funny

[onyx loom]

okay fine in that very extreme case where a game that isn't brand new has twelve reviews, cool, it's reason for caution

but this started on a game with 500 reviews

[atomic spear]

despite playing warframe for almost 1200 hours i will not reccomend it to anyone ever

[hollow mirage]

because your opinions suck

[digital hamlet]

i would consider 400 reviews to still be a significant factor

[crisp hound]

Same

[atomic spear]

bc it's trite

[gritty summit]

me with any game i get addicted to

[onyx loom]

so true

[hollow mirage]

then why fucking PLAY IT SO MUCH

[atomic spear]

deep rock on the other i will rec to everyone

[hollow mirage]

you clearly enjoy it

[proud wren]

zamn you're on the grind

[digital hamlet]

my boundary is ~2-3k very positive at minimum

[crisp hound]

Now tboi on the other hand

[gritty summit]

i don't want to drag someone i care about into my own addiction

[atomic spear]

because i suffer from depression and need dopamine to ignore the shit thats wrong with my life

[hollow mirage]

tboi can suck it, terrible game

[crisp hound]

Big reccomend

[gritty summit]

damn true

[atomic spear]

[hollow mirage]

theres more than Warframe you could play.

[crisp hound]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/123936675209412608/1092019368226992138/JMvRJlHy.gif

[warm maple]

There are other games

[onyx loom]

okay but mortal sin is a roguelike to my understanding, again, two hour refund, i'm sure one hour of a roguelike is enough to at least get a very basic "i'm liking this" or "i'm not liking this"

[digital hamlet]

tbh only with the full game ($60 total...)

[gritty summit]

https://tenor.com/view/bug-shaker-thug-shaker-thug-hunter-arting-gif-25772363

[crisp hound]

Yeah repentance is worth the money tho

[digital hamlet]

its a big investment

[crisp hound]

I have like 400 hours in it

[digital hamlet]

it came out 4 months ago and only has 419 reviews
i aint touchin that with a 10 foot pole

[gritty summit]

i do not see how any of those statements could affect your decision on trying out a game or not, but okay

[small wren]

I've heard about this game, is it really that good?

[proud wren]

it's SO GOOD Though

[hollow mirage]

if you want a simple racing game, its fantastic

[ember vortex]

i heard that valorant is a hero shooter can someone confirm?

[proud wren]

some people don't like the melee combat (which is probably its best thing) because they simply didn't learn it enough

[digital hamlet]

there have been games with literally zero marketing and fully wiped the market clean based on quality alone (hi-fi rush for one)
after 4 months, if a game is *actually * good, it'll already be popular

[hollow mirage]

AND THE SOUNTRACK

[small wren]

I read it got a physical release
But unfortunately it's LRG, and nothing else afaik :/

[gritty summit]

what about this hidden gem

[ember vortex]

halo 3

[digital hamlet]

addicts, all of em

[drifting kernel]

oh wow is that a free game

[hollow mirage]

its that free trial

[gritty summit]

but it has over 500k reviews and it's very positive, try it out

[digital hamlet]

i regret to inform you that i have

[onyx loom]

okay but you can try it out for an hour and refund it

nothing lost except for an hour of time, and you're shopping for a videogame so you're already looking to waste time anyway

[hollow mirage]

you can enjoy unpopular games

[crystal field]

technically there are heroes and you can shoot

[ember vortex]

sounds like a hero shooter to me!

[crystal field]

so

[proud wren]

sadly with mortal sin the combat doesn't really click with you in 1-2 hours

[digital hamlet]

good games will become popular on their own merit

[hollow mirage]

but its more CSGO than something like Paladins or Overwatch

[proud wren]

most people don't really start to utilize the weapon swapping and cancelling that early

[onyx loom]

but i'm sure there's at least some fun to have within that two hour bracket

[hollow mirage]

art of rally barely fits your review standards and its one of my favorite racing games.

[proud wren]

yeah def

[digital hamlet]

i don't like racing games

[hollow mirage]

that doesnt matter

[proud wren]

mortal sin has a really unique artstyle

[hollow mirage]

its an example of why your logic is flawed

[digital hamlet]

also isn't art of rally primarily a console game

[hollow mirage]

what???

[onyx loom]

it's like how ultrakill has a million billion different techs you can pull off, I did none of that except for projectile boosting in my first two hours with the game, still loved it

[gritty summit]

oof ouchy my brain

[hollow mirage]

the fuck are you on about?

[digital hamlet]

idk all i remember is seeing it in the popular section of the xbox store

[proud wren]

also the dev for mortal sin pushes out nicely sized updates every 1-2 weeks

[digital hamlet]

lmao

[onyx loom]

but why does that make it a console exclusive experience

[hollow mirage]

I literally JUST showed the steam page for it

[digital hamlet]

im sayin it might have much more reviews or sales there

[hollow mirage]

20 minutes ago. right here

[gritty summit]

i believe they are being sarcastic

[onyx loom]

i have never seen a game on the xbox store page with more than 100 reviews with the exception of like, cod and fifa

[ember vortex]

that's literally the definition, bud

[digital hamlet]

true

xbox gamers kinda suck

[proud wren]

same goes with playstation, most games have like 20-50 reviews

[ember vortex]

what separates counter strike from valorant is characters having abilities. every character in counterstrike is the same

but none of those things contradict each other

[hollow mirage]

characters having smoke
CSGO having smoke grenades.

Valorant is more CSGO than a hero shooter

[warm maple]

Also Valorant is trash

[ember vortex]

it's an ability/character based tactical shooter

[hollow mirage]

while it still technically is a hero shooter, its not a hero shooter like Paladins or Overwatch

[ember vortex]

what's not to get

call them classes, whatever you like, it's all in the same umbrella

[crystal field]

those would be arena hero shooters

[ember vortex]

tactical and hero are not contradictory terms lol

[gritty summit]

doom eternal is my favorite hero shooter

[onyx loom]

enter the gungeon isn't a roguelike like risk of rain 2

[ember vortex]

tactical just means the guns are more realistic

[digital hamlet]

anyway what i was actually saying was that just because it barely meets the review minimum doesn't mean i'd consider it as much as hypotheticsl 99% 300k review game
id still consider its low popularity as a significant factor, but it's clearly popular enough for me to at least think about its content

[hollow mirage]

I love spread patterns when I shoot guns irl

[ember vortex]

me w/ a shotgun fr

[warm maple]

Damn random bullet spread

[hollow mirage]

[onyx loom]

oh my god there's no coming back from that many skull emojis, sai hand over moderator to me and leave the server

truly you've been gotten

[hollow mirage]

I hate that Contractors and Pavlov added recoil patterns. so fuckin dumb to have those in VR shooters

[gritty summit]

they missed 2 skull emojis to summon the vanish demon

[hollow mirage]

nah thats a weird milsim thing

[ember vortex]

are there classes?

[digital hamlet]

i disagree, they're both roguelikes in an extremely similar way (horizontal metaprogression)
much like ftl, although that one is kind of an rts, ish

[ember vortex]

well,

[hollow mirage]

classes doesnt mean hero shooter, but hero shooter means classes

[onyx loom]

ok

[ember vortex]

hero shooter is just gen z speak for classes

[small wren]

I've seen bad reviews of people that hated games because they weren't in Spanish, I was like...
My brother in Christ, there's a LIST of LANGUAGES the game's available in

[warm maple]

Nuh uh

[hollow mirage]

nobody calling Borderlands a Hero Shooter

[ember vortex]

they just started giving classes personalities to sell the game more lol

[digital hamlet]

tbh tf2 is a hero shooter

[warm maple]

Wrong

[ember vortex]

but tactical doesn't conflict with hero

you can be a tactical hero shooter

lol

[gritty summit]

unreal tournament 1999

[warm maple]

Hero shooters tend to have abilities, class shooters don't

[hollow mirage]

I love how this all started because we're just saying its not like a typical hero shooter

no, shes right

[digital hamlet]

agreed

[ember vortex]

hm, do you define 'ability' as abilities you need to actively use?

[warm maple]

🤓

[small wren]

Enter the Gungeon is a twin stick shooter bullet hell roguelike
Risk of Rain is a survival roguelike
They're both roguelikes, but of different types

[hollow mirage]

yes you do

[winter herald]

so then how is valorant not a hero shooter

[ember vortex]

lol

[digital hamlet]

ok hold on can you summarize your definitions of tactical and hero shooter

[hollow mirage]

that would turn Halo Reach into a Hero Shooter

[winter herald]

also how is cod not a hero shooter by that logic lol

[hollow mirage]

exactly

[onyx loom]

my favourite halo reach hero is armour lock

[ember vortex]

halo isn't a hero shooter because everyone has access to the same abilities, it just has a large sandbox

[gritty summit]

https://tenor.com/view/nerd-emoji-nerdge-gif-23738139

[warm maple]

Risk of Rain 2 is a hero shooter

[hollow mirage]

[winter herald]

so true

[ember vortex]

if you wanted to call it that, you wouldn't be wrong

[gritty summit]

god of war reboot is my favorite looter shooter

[ember vortex]

but it wouldn't really be a helpful description of the game

[warm maple]

I should @ bizz and ask if their game is a hero shooter

[winter herald]

execution

[ember vortex]

[gritty summit]

[warm maple]

[proud wren]

TRUE

[digital hamlet]

by my personal definition of roguelike they would be called 'gungeon-likes' because horizontal metaprogression
my three categories are no metaprogression (og rogue, peglin, etc), horizontal metaprogression (ftl, ror, gungeon, isaac, etc), and vertical metaprogression (rogue legacy, dead cells, etc)

[tidal raven]

TF2
Has different "heroes" with unique playstyles ✅

Is a shooter ✅

[near sentinel]

What’s this debate btw

[proud wren]

valorant is a hero shooter

[winter herald]

because you dont know what you're talking about

[digital hamlet]

counterpoint suncles says to ping hopoo more

[warm maple]

it's not a hero shooter

[neon pine]

tf2 is a hero shooter she's right

[proud wren]

tf2 doesn't have any abilities or ultimates

[hollow mirage]

i dont even know at this point.
we started with saying Valorant is more CSGO than a Hero Shooter

[ember vortex]

tf2 definitely has abilities

they're mostly passive

[winter herald]

[tidal raven]

Okay and?

[neon pine]

[crystal field]

this is truly an apex moment

[ember vortex]

scout can double jump, spy can invis, engi can build, etc etc etc

[proud wren]

pyro's funny gun has an uber

[near sentinel]

I would define a hero shooter as a multiplayer, PVP game where the mechanics are defined more by the unique heroes to pick from, and not just some massive arsenal of weapons any character can use

[ember vortex]

ooooohhh

this is a really good definition

[gritty summit]

we can tell dw

[ember vortex]

hey hey, be nice

[neon pine]

meanie

[hollow mirage]

thank you

[ember vortex]

that's not a nice thing to say to someone

[warm maple]

That's part of their class speciality

[ember vortex]

right, that's their hero ability

[near sentinel]

So tf2, definitely a hero shooter
Overwatch!, you bet your ass that’s a hero shooter

[ember vortex]

they even have unique weapon loadouts

[tidal raven]

So
A unique trait for the character

Hero shooter

[hollow mirage]

no

[near sentinel]

But apex legends?…apex legends ride the line

[warm maple]

[gritty summit]

i mean if they come here calling people idiots and low iq, might aswell

[ember vortex]

apex is a hero shooter for sure

[near sentinel]

Fortnite is definitely not a hero shooter

[neon pine]

isaac is a hero shooter

[tidal raven]

Apex is a hero shooter

[warm maple]

Warframe is a hero shooter

[digital hamlet]

being able to tp around is 100% a hero shooter

[hollow mirage]

shut up

[small wren]

Fortinaity la babaji

[neon pine]

different characters with different abilities

[winter herald]

bro does not understand that games can have more than one genre

[onyx loom]

always highroad

[ember vortex]

so much of how the game shakes out at higher levels is based on team comp

[proud wren]

apex has more characters than tf2

[digital hamlet]

not multiplayer

[hollow mirage]

[neon pine]

yes it is

[tidal raven]

TRUE

[digital hamlet]

no pvp

[neon pine]

not with that attitude

[ember vortex]

if overwatch is a hero shooter, so is tf2

[gritty summit]

oh, and dumb

[warm maple]

nuh uh

[digital hamlet]

literally most games are genre mixes

[neon pine]

valorant is absolutely a hero shooter though

[proud wren]

rain world is a hero shooter

[ember vortex]

if you can't be nice, you can take another mute

[near sentinel]

Yeah idk how anyone can not say tf2 isn’t a hero shooter
It’s one of the games that defined the genre

[winter herald]

yes
