I liked Trove for the first few days but god that game fucking sucks

[tidal raven]

I have been increasingly tempted to try Genshit after playing AoC and returning to BotW

[gritty summit]

it is... fine

[bitter granite]

Trove grind is too RNG heavy

[tidal raven]

Trove is a pain

The grind is worse than the servers

[warm maple]

The only purpose of the grind is to get stronger. No other reason

[bitter granite]

Only game RNG hates me

[bitter granite]

And cooler dragons

[drifting kernel]

to get stronger

[civic quail]

Wait were people getting peer pressured into playing Warframe?? 😭

[bitter granite]

Real

[drifting kernel]

ig

[warm maple]

Probably 😔

[gritty summit]

me in bdo

[bitter granite]

Basically

[warm maple]

I don’t know if people were actually

[bitter granite]

Now we allowed to say bad things about Warframe

[tidal raven]

Only way youd want to play it

[civic quail]

Please, in the future, have more self respect 😭 💛

[bitter granite]

Like how the mtx are hot ass

[tidal raven]

[civic quail]

FUCK NO

[atomic spear]

Omw to peer pressure y'all into Playing Changed: Special Ed

[warm maple]

We went from “D2 bad. Warframe good” to a “Warframe bad” channel

[civic quail]

At the drop of a hat

[bitter granite]

D2 still bad

[warm maple]

True

[bitter granite]

Just Warframe is joining now

[drifting kernel]

i made my account because another friend wanted me to play it like a year before i joined this server
then i was bored with nothing to play and found out people liked warframe here

[tidal raven]

Lmao

[drifting kernel]

based!

[atomic spear]

I'll always maintain bioshock 3 is shit

[tidal raven]

True!

[bitter granite]

1 new map in 3 years

[tidal raven]

Can we
Just do away with stopping your strafe when you sprint
Please

[drifting kernel]

apparently it was leaked that they're bringing back crota's end as their yearly reprised raid
keyword "raid" because god damn crotas is 1. dogshit and 2. way too short

might as well make it a dungeon and make people pay 1k silver

[civic quail]

My face when I'm not dragged into the cesspit that is Destiny 2 and Warframe

[gritty summit]

to be fair other-games talks shit about every game in existence unless it's the game they are currently enjoying at that specific moment

[bitter granite]

Can 3 man it in under 15 minutes

[atomic spear]

Tencent really fucked up warframe

[tidal raven]

Tencent?

[bitter granite]

True, life is a good game

I love living life

[gritty summit]

how dare you enjoy life, cringe

[tidal raven]

Or is that a jab a DE?

[atomic spear]

and crossplay

[warm maple]

I can’t comment on Tencent or they might delete my Genshin account

[gritty summit]

https://tenor.com/view/social-credit-social-credit-score-credit-score-score-china-gif-23125701

[warm maple]

Oh yeah, crossplay fucking sucked

[atomic spear]

I always pray drg doesn't get crossplay

[tidal raven]

If Tencent got into Warframe
Thatd explain the really awful looking mobile port

[bitter granite]

Coworker had me look up her favorite anime character and wtf are these stats

[atomic spear]

God that would slow development to hell

[tidal raven]

Mobile game UIs are unironically

[warm maple]

True

[bitter granite]

Gender baby boy, height 5’6.9

[gritty summit]

me playing MMORPGs

[warm maple]

Me too 😔

[civic quail]

Advanced Warfare UI be like

[tidal raven]

I appreciate MMORPGS with clean uis

[gritty summit]

New World has a clean UI, too bad it died because amazon games

[warm maple]

Me trying to get into WoW

[tidal raven]

Like FF14*

*if your willing to customize it to be out of the way

[gritty summit]

well, to be fair a lot of MMOs let you customize the UI so you can get it looking really nice. Setting all that up is a pain in the ass depending on the game though

[warm maple]

I don’t pay FF14 out of principle

[tidal raven]

Yeah, but alot of them intend for you to fill the screen with information

Alot of the FF14 custom huds ive seen are very clean by comparison
You can shrink and organize things very finely to have info, but keep things clean

[gritty summit]

@bitter granite it's Cosmic's birthday today, gift him baldur's gate 3

[warm maple]

Give me it too

[bitter granite]

No, I only give gifts at funerals

[gritty summit]

okay do i get it if i kill someone

[warm maple]

Man I’m dead 💀 ⚰️

[bitter granite]

Only the dead person gets it

[warm maple]

BG3 please?

[bitter granite]

I need proof of death

[warm maple]

I died - me just now

[bitter granite]

[proud wren]

[gritty summit]

[proud wren]

ryan gosling has the highest rank in comp sex

[bitter granite]

No

[bitter granite]

I don’t have sex

[digital hamlet]

Yes

[proud wren]

good god

[near sentinel]

got his virginity shield up 24/7

[digital hamlet]

why is that title so long

[near sentinel]

I mean that seems reasonabe for an article headliner

[digital hamlet]

Ryan Gosling Is Virgin :/

[fervent tapir]

in his 41 years of living

🤯

[modern schooner]

I hope to one day break Ryan gosling’s current record

Although that would take living to 41, so that may be an issue for me

[civic quail]

I express concern, from a friend to a friend, over this comment 💀

[modern schooner]

Don’t worry, i should at least be fine for the next 12 years

[civic quail]

I do hope you can achieve another 60, happily and comfortably

[modern schooner]

I probably wouldn’t be opposed to that

[civic quail]

I am overjoyed to hear that :>

[obtuse copper]

Carrion is eh

Cool, but not one of the top ten ig

[proud wren]

Carrion was great but getting lost for half an hour was not fun

There 100% needs to be more games like carrion

[frosty yoke]

So close. Week and a half to go.

[atomic spear]

https://youtu.be/9MhLx1V-U3o

god i loved carrion

what a great game

[wispy loom]

god damn it why are there so many good games releasing

[frosty yoke]

[wispy loom]

I don't have the sort of money for a 60$ game every month

[frosty yoke]

Im just waiting on Elden Ring dlc news, FF14 expac release date, FF16 PC release date. . . . hopefully, and confirmation of FF7 remake pt2 coming to pc.

[digital hamlet]

Pd3 next month

[wispy loom]

PD3?

[digital hamlet]

Payday

Aka bag moving simulator

Aka what if crime paid

Aka what if gus fring was an immortal king hell bent on… uh… killing the president? No, wait, he wasn’t doing that… Replacing the president? Ehhhh maybe but also the nephilim… uh…

Idk man

[wispy loom]

it's easy to figure out when dawntrail will come out, since MMOs follow schedules for release usually. every expansion except EW has been released in june/july

[frosty yoke]

Endwalker was Dec wasn't it though?

[wispy loom]

I did specify that, yes

[foggy meadow]

…..note to self, recoil damage is based on damage DEALT

so maybe, using a recoil move on a tera raid blissey, is a terrible idea

[past raptor]

soo i need a name for a black dragonborn in baldur's gate 3 and so far i haven't gotten good names (i asked the only 2 other servers with people that wont give me nsfw names as a joke)

[wispy loom]

Guts :D

[past raptor]

well i would show him but i can't

[crystal field]

the level design was so boring it all looked the same it was like a joke when they showed something off screen and pretended like we'd know where that is

[warm maple]

I can’t believe the bar has been set so high for AAA games….. games that are actually finished!!!!!!!

[crystal field]

bungie literally came up with the term "overdelivering" as an excuse for their lacking content

[warm maple]

No way

Really?

[wispy loom]

yeah.... "beware of overdelivery, you're creating patterns!" was their wording, and it's frustrating as hell to hear since like... just because past content was really good doesn't mean you shouldn't try and make what you can with what you have, instead of doing the bare minimum

[warm maple]

Guh

[warm maple]

Why not just tell the fan base to go fuck themselves?

[steady spoke]

Need to keep their source of income from the game

[warm maple]

True

[wispy loom]

the devs and especially the director are extremely dedicated, so it's sad seeing that their teams have been shrunk at basically shadowkeep levels for Marathon's sake

[half zinc]

8/10
-2 cause of R6S

[modern schooner]

I used to play siege a lot

Never again

[wispy loom]

apparently the game still has a sizeable team and the playerbase is quite large

[modern schooner]

I could probably still have some fun playing it, my issue is just that the people I played it with hate it now and I don’t wanna play with randos

People have literally gotten mad at me for being nice before

[wispy loom]

doesn't the game have a ping system now, there's little need for speaking in unrated

[modern schooner]

It’s had pings for as long as I’ve played

[wispy loom]

oh, I started playing when the Spanish characters were added

[modern schooner]

I started at the end of the season the dude with the bomb drones was added

Blowing teammates up with the drones still doesn’t get you reverse friendly fire somehow

[wispy loom]

oh yeah the game already had pings then

there ain't no way

I've been playing valorant again as of recent and I've been loving it, Gekko really turned the game around for me

Bungie should have never stopped working on halo

[bitter granite]

@warm maple take me to a V-tuber concert

[warm maple]

No

[wispy loom]

was it even their choice

[warm maple]

I wish it was

Fuck Microsoft and fuck 343

For a games company based on making halo games they suck at it

[wispy loom]

funny thing is, the MCC team is going strong

[steady spoke]

Too bad the MCC team is quite small nowadays :(

[warm maple]

[atomic spear]

After playing halo ce I'm still not certain why that franchise became popular

[bitter granite]

It’s simple, that’s why

Just simple fun, no op meta guns or anything, everyone get the same set of guns and you just have fun shooting at each other

Anyways started playing Hearthstone, pretty fun so far

Might play warrior mostly

[analog crypt]

Real?

[warm maple]

Real

[analog crypt]

guh

[bitter granite]

Am I real?

[civic quail]

WE'RE SO BACK LANCE BROS!!!

[modern schooner]

I should make a monster hunter tier list of my own

All I know is hammer would be in the favorite tier, and longsword in the burn in fucking hell for all eternity, I hope everyone who mains you dies tier

I shouldn’t have to always slot flinch free to deal with your idiocy

[tidal raven]

Lance mains when no Guard Up

[gritty summit]

i main longsword and i hope this happens

[tidal raven]

Of course you use longsword

[modern schooner]

All but one longsword main then, but also, screw you anyway

Main a different weapon

[tidal raven]

Play a good weapon
like Charge Blade

[modern schooner]

There you go

[tidal raven]

All I need is to find a HR armor set with guard up

[gritty summit]

nuh uh

[modern schooner]

Then I will never play MH with you

[tidal raven]

Remain inferior then

[modern schooner]

And every monster hunter player will hate you

[civic quail]

What about Lance mains? 💀

[tidal raven]

Lance mains protecting the Longsword user from Fatalis' fire (They dont know how to dodge it)

[modern schooner]

👍

They’re alright

[proud wren]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwvx3ksnOQs ayo??

Yay :]

[modern schooner]

I really only hate longswords, every other weapon is chill

Wait no, bowguns are stupid too

[warm maple]

Maybe

[atomic spear]

god finally bash lab under construction

sooo glad i didn't buy yareli

[frosty yoke]

This has been on my radar for awhile now, shame theres no date yet.

[proud wren]

it's gonna come out before silksong

[frosty yoke]

[royal warren]

there's no date for that game yet because they made a buttload more money than they expected

so they decided to make it waaaay bigger to account for how much people valued it

[proud wren]

it made 1.2 million and the goal was 125k

[frosty yoke]

Well damn. Thats awesome then. More of that good stuff.

this game looks cool but it seriously just looks like hollow knight

[proud wren]

The game had a whole lot of controversy about that earlier on in the year

[balmy mason]

yeah

its cool but it seriously just looks exactly like hollow knight

[proud wren]

it seems to be a lot faster paced with more options for combat

Coming soon

[warm maple]

No release date? 😔

[stuck lark]

Oh you poor thing
Playing tarkov

[half zinc]

holy shit its happening

[fickle trellis]

Time to become the Rizz god

[wispy loom]

80 Canadian bloody dollars

[neon pine]

cheaper to drive out into the forest and experience that one cutscene irl

[fickle trellis]

I've seen worse

[wispy loom]

I'm definitely getting it on sale

[fickle trellis]

My steam library is so stale, I need something new to play

At least until starfield comes out

All my friends are playing baldurs gate

I've heard it's really good too

[wispy loom]

don't trust in Bethesda or their marketing. Starfield will most definitely be mid

[fickle trellis]

I've had great fun with all of their games I've played

Especially fallout 4

I have almost 900 hours in that game

Skyrim was decent, although I don't enjoy it quite as much

[wispy loom]

ah, beyond redemption I see

[fickle trellis]

I'm sorry you don't have the same experience

Not going to affect my opinion

[wispy loom]

it's more so the fact fallout 4 is barely a fallout game

[fickle trellis]

It's a great fps

[wispy loom]

but a god awful fallout game, there's also far better FPS games out there

[fickle trellis]

I play for the gameplay, not story and shit

And I can just mod the shit out of it

[wispy loom]

this statement implies story and dialogue aren't fundamental to the gameplay and player actions within fallout

[fickle trellis]

Damn, can a mf not enjoy fallout 4

You sound like a new Vegas fan

[tidal raven]

New Vegas fans when they play a game with good gunplay (Its terrible)

[digital hamlet]

Story is not fundamental to gameplay

They’re fully independent most of the time

[fickle trellis]

^

[tidal raven]

They can be fundemental in the gameplay

But thats not the case in any fallout game

The gameplay remains the same no matter what you do

[digital hamlet]

I really just don’t care about the story of most games

[fickle trellis]

Fallout 4 shoot gun good

Enemies turn to globs of flesh

[digital hamlet]

New Vegas is good for different reasons tbh

[fickle trellis]

10/10

[digital hamlet]

like world design

[bronze torrent]

friend thought treecko's tail was his cheeks moment

[digital hamlet]

Good editing

[fickle trellis]

I've never really cared about graphics and story and all that stuff

I'm a real simple guy

I just like good gameplay

[bronze torrent]

@fickle trellis u a cruelty squad enjoyer?

that game is a maserpiece

[tidal raven]

I like
Good gameplay, fairly good graphics, and a story thats great, but in the background

[gritty summit]

i like longswords

[bronze torrent]

Cruelty Squad

[tidal raven]

You'd love post void
The gameplays good

It just looks like what soemone would see while theyre having a heart attack

[fickle trellis]

I haven't played it, but isn't that the game with like the stock market and stuff

Really weird ass game

[frosty yoke]

[fickle trellis]

Also I grew up on ps2 games and shit so that probably plays into it

[bronze torrent]

i think trying to be immersed in its gameplay and giving it a chance really shines for some people

because when it hits for some people IT HITS.

and when it miss for some people then onto the next game

[fickle trellis]

How much is it

[bronze torrent]

like £15. i just wait until it goes on sale

[fickle trellis]

I'll have to look it up after school if I remember

[tidal raven]

My brother
Has done several playthroughs, each with its own backuped save
All of which have the 1 million dollar disc you can fish up in the casino

[tidal raven]

He backed up his save and redid the whole game just to see how far up the gamestop stocks would go

[bronze torrent]

@fickle trellis ultrakill enjoyer?

thats alot more approchable if u havn't played it

[fickle trellis]

No but ive seen a friend play it

[bronze torrent]

gameplay just gets more satisfying when u keep learning the shmoovments.

[civic quail]

I don't know man, I've been happy with it. Mainly because I've been wining engagements and not been getting ratted 😭

[fickle trellis]

I love rocket jumping and stuff in tf2

The strafing mechanics and ehat not

Very satisfying

[bronze torrent]

yessirs

i played tarkov for the first time

got to like lvl 45 or something then i quit cuz it drained my life at the start of this year but got alot of clips

[wispy loom]

bro is John Carmac from the 90s

[fickle trellis]

I'm not really a fan of fps games tbh, multi-player specifically

I spend thousands of hours in tf2 already and got good

Sounds like too much work to do it again in another game

I'm past my prime

[tidal raven]

I love comp shooters

Only when im with a party of friends

I cannot stand solo queue, in any shooter

Rainbow 6 is fun with friends when your doing goofy shit tho

[civic quail]

You don't know how aware I've become of every ratting spots. I can tell if there's a rat. Used ammo, corpses, open doors. I know exactly where they'll be 😭 Makes grenades way more useful

[civic quail]

I can do solo or squad, but I can never be super competitive 💀

[bronze torrent]

kek i love the game but theres too many cheaters

[fickle trellis]

I dont like playing solo, unless it's tf2

Cuz I can destroy mfs in that game

[bronze torrent]

and first time playing tarkov its not a great way to introduce new players like that

[wispy loom]

tarkov sounds like it would cause paranoia

[bronze torrent]

its anxiety inducing

[tidal raven]

If your solo you gotta be to cary your weight for the rest of them

[bronze torrent]

its really crazy

[civic quail]

I would say it's way better this wipe. I stopped playing a month into the last one, but this wipe has actually been really fun

[wispy loom]

the best games are anxiety inducing

[bronze torrent]

the number 1 scariest thing about this game

is wearing a helmet and a cheater auto aim to ur head. causing that mega sound earburst drum sound fr

[civic quail]

True, but I honestly feel more pressure with friends. Dissapointing random? Big whoop. Friends though? Way worse 😭

[bronze torrent]

its too loud.

this 1 too.

[tidal raven]

I gotta be trying to dissapoint my friends

Well, except one

[civic quail]

Actually, I don't know why, but this reminds me how yesterday I floored a guy who had an M4 and some good gear, only using a shitty Saiga 9 😭

[civic quail]

One you say? :v

[tidal raven]

Theres ths one guy
Who complains
Constantly

Hes the only one whoos outright told any of us our flaws

[wispy loom]

I mean, do they scream your mistakes at you without giving a solution or do they say how to improve

[gritty summit]

Nemmy when a longsword/scout main exists:

[civic quail]

Yeah, I stopped playing with guys like that 💀

[fickle trellis]

I love backseat gamers

I make sure to kill them in games where friendly fire is enabled

It's literally just a pointless affair yelling at people

[wispy loom]

is that a chivalry/mordhau thing

[tidal raven]

I use Charge Blade
I gotta be eliteist its in the code of conduct

[fickle trellis]

Mmm charge blade

[tidal raven]

Its a Monster Hunter/DRG thing

[fickle trellis]

I like insect glaive too

Flying around

[wispy loom]

I am a based swagaxe/gunner main

[fickle trellis]

I was never really good at monster hunter

I got through the main game and that's it

Never completed iceborne

[wispy loom]

missed out fr

[fickle trellis]

It was just an alright game to me

Wasn't something I would replay

I get bored of games really fast if I don't really like them

[wispy loom]

the gameplay is so damn fire tho, and the rpg elements are some of the best in the market

[fickle trellis]

99% of my steam library is unfinished 🤣

I just can't stay long enough to really get a hang of most games

[wispy loom]

have you played Hades

[fickle trellis]

It's an attentional thing

Nah

[wispy loom]

smh my head

[fickle trellis]

What even is that

[wispy loom]

one of the best rogue likes and games of the last few years

[drifting kernel]

roguelite* 🤓

[fickle trellis]

I'm not really a fan of roguelikes, with one obvious exception

[wispy loom]

this is correct

[fickle trellis]

Does don't starve count as a roguelite

I imagine it does

[wispy loom]

no it's a survival game

[fickle trellis]

What's the difference

[drifting kernel]

roguelites are roguelikes with meta progression

ie. you use a currency each run to buy permanent upgrades

[fickle trellis]

I see

I can't stand don't starve

[wispy loom]

don't starve is really good but niche because it wants to be as uncompromising as possible

[civic quail]

I fuckin love Don't Starve

[wispy loom]

BASED

see this guy gets it, he also likes hotline Miami so you know he hates himself

[fickle trellis]

I just can't hold interest long enough to learn games properly

[civic quail]

Although, I'm boring as fuck, a true Wilson main at heart

[wispy loom]

nah that's based, who needs an actually good character who has infinite light or broken ass cooking

[civic quail]

Nah love myself, just need a little challenge 😭

[civic quail]

What Tiktok does to a man

[civic quail]

HEY WILSON IS GOOD

[wispy loom]

in together maybe

not single player

[civic quail]

Nah me and the beard hairs are great friends in single player

[wispy loom]

I can't remember what beard is used for

[civic quail]

Effigies and warmth

[wispy loom]

oh shit, ok maybe Wilson is good

I'm still kinda sad single player is mostly neglected, it's probably due to the codebase being hell to work with

[civic quail]

I mean it still gets some love, but yeah, DST is certainly the favorite child of the two 😭

[wispy loom]

if you like challenging games fallout 1 and 2 might be right up your alley

[civic quail]

I've actually played both! Loved Fallout 2 😌

insanely based

I was nearly done with fallout 2 but I got stuck like an idiot in vault 13 because I kept trying to fight the guy with a complete smart build when there was a computer like 3 meters to the left

and then I lost the save

[civic quail]

OH LMAO. That's so sad. I remember having a similar issue in that dead vault back in Fallout 1

[wispy loom]

the pain of being stupid 😔

[civic quail]

ON THE SMART BUILD TOO 😭

[wispy loom]

I had computers speech and sneak so I could just tech my way through most things, I think I had some gun skill too in the case stuff got unavoidable

I distinctly remember this fight where it was an unwinnable 1 on 2, but the other enemy was inside a house, so I just lockpicked the lock closed and managed to beat them individually

[fickle trellis]

I god no, I would never

I have self respect

[wispy loom]

excuse me, Santa Claus? as in father Christmas?

[small glacier]

That’s the one

He canonically lives in the north pole with a bunch of Jynx, a Lapras, and a Stantler

In one Manga, Ash’s Pikachu electrocutes him

[small glacier]

Also! Christmas being canon means that Jesus Christ died for Pikachu’s sins

[wispy loom]

this is just like the cars universe with the car pope

[small glacier]

I am now imagining the crowd of Jewish citizens yelling “crucify him!” with all of their pokémon shouting along with them

[wispy loom]

in reality Jesus Christ was a pokemon

[small glacier]

There are so many pictures on Google

Of Pikachu being crucified

[wispy loom]

oh god the Satanic panic from the 90s. imagine a traumatized kid

[tidal raven]

Rougelikes are Arcadey games whos gameplay loop is doing runs, failing the run and learning from what went wrong in your next run

Rougelite is a genre made for the sake of making a genre

[civic quail]

Based

[civic quail]

I was gonna say this earlier, but internet died; did something similar in Fallout 1 at that raider compound. Sniped everyone outside, and lured everyone who was in 😭

[wispy loom]

I absolutely love old CRPGs, they're all so unhinged

[civic quail]

Absolutely, although I will say, they were sometimes absolutely bullshit 😭 I kinda respect it though

[wispy loom]

I will never not hate the scorpion cave in F1

[civic quail]

NUGH-

[tidal raven]

Same
Even modern CRPGs are a niche I will always love

[civic quail]

I was honestly more okay with that. I was more pissed at that one gang bust, where you more than likely lost numerous companions 😭😭

[wispy loom]

I should play BG1

[tidal raven]

The singular reason im not playing BG3 rn is cause my friends want to set up a group session and I do not wanna spoil myself

jubei is pretty easy to play by BlazBlue standards, like he's not ragna but not Carl or Rachel

exactly what i need after neglecting any and all fighting games for months

Ghostrunner 2

Ghostrunner 2 is the highly anticipated hardcore FPP slasher set one year after the events of Ghostrunner. Blood will run in this post-apocalyptic cyberpunk future that takes place after the fall of the Keymaster, a tyrant who ruled over Dharma Tower, the last refuge of humanity.

▶ Play video

[wispy loom]

yea

[proud wren]

apparently you can sign up for the beta test and you'll be featured in the game's credits

[wispy loom]

wait what

[proud wren]

mhm

i can DM you the link if you'd like

[wispy loom]

sure I'll pass it on to my ghostrunner obsessed friend

[neon pine]

that 1.50 bucks was worth it

jubei fucks so hard

[wispy loom]

if you're not fast with 360 motions you better get to it

[neon pine]

let me get used to the game first man i only just beat arcade

[wispy loom]

ah lmao

[neon pine]

ill get to everything

[wispy loom]

360A is jubei's install and it's essential to his gameplan

if you ever want a match hit me up I'll be happy to destroy teach you

[neon pine]

will keep that in mind

[wispy loom]

and remember, pick who you think looks cool

actually hold on, you don't happen to be in the skoriath discord

[neon pine]

nah

jubei's side A and side B throw me off so hard holy shit

[wispy loom]

whu

forward or backward

oh yeah do you know number notation

[neon pine]

yeahyeah i know numpad notation but im lazy

also i think both are the same unless i have dementia but the usual 6A or 6B for example would result in a "taunt"

by themselves, of course

[wispy loom]

those are mid and low parries respectively

[neon pine]

OH THEYRE PARRIES

[wispy loom]

they are absolutely terrible and should be avoided at all costs

[neon pine]

i was so confused

[wispy loom]

yeah, again, dustloop very useful

[neon pine]

need to read up on my 8 dollar cat

[wispy loom]

yeah you're gonna need to learn dashing really well, 66 and 44

[unreal flame]

What steam games do you guys recomend I play?

[wispy loom]

44>66 leads to a special dash that's super fast and goes a set distance. 66[6] lets you slip behind your opponent

[wispy loom]

there are so many, what kind of games do you like

[unreal flame]

Rougelikes, Fps shooters (Excluding COD, halo, apex, games like that)

[wispy loom]

Hades

[tidal raven]

Do you have the old doom games?
Been enjoying Doom 64 recently

Titanfall 2 is an amazing shooter

[neon pine]

forgive me father is cool

[unreal flame]

Forgot to mention rage platformers, and rougelikes such as issac, have a nice death, and of course Ror2

[neon pine]

oh
the end is nigh

[unreal flame]

I've tried doom, It was good

Btw, an example of a rage platformer is super meat boy(super meat boy forever sucked ass tbh)

[unreal flame]

Isn't that scribblenauts

[tidal raven]

Yes

[unreal flame]

I remember it cuz I had the DC and the regular one

For WiiU

[tidal raven]

I used to play the DS one
Alot

[bronze torrent]

my friend's clip LOL

[proud wren]

that sound was awful

[unreal flame]

I was thinking about getting GtTOD, JS&B, Super meat boy, neon white, and metal gear rising revevngance, I only got 50 dollars on steam tho

So I dunno what to get

[modern schooner]

I don’t know what those first two are, but as someone who just recently played neon white I can confirm it is very fun

Going fast will never get old

[unreal flame]

The first 2 are get to the orange door, and just shapes & beats

[unreal flame]

I might just pick neon white and Js&b for the time until I can buy the rest

[modern schooner]

Just shapes and beats seems neat, I always forget about it when I have money though

[fervent tapir]

mgrr is actually a pretty good game
those are all pretty good games

[proud wren]

just shapes and beats seems like a simple bullet hell game

[unreal flame]

Ill get mgrr next when I have the money

[unreal flame]

Still A good game in my opinion, better than Fnf at this point

[proud wren]

true

many games are better than FnF

[fervent tapir]

epic win

[obsidian cloud]

neon white is fun

[frosty yoke]

[civic quail]

AIN'T NO WAY

[frosty yoke]

Nah, it really isnt there lmao

[civic quail]

On the one hand, I don't blame em, on the other hand; the comedy writes itself

[frosty yoke]

Doomed if they do, doomed if they dont.

[grim swan]

I wanna see all the high effort widowmaker art :)

[civic quail]

[grim swan]

also we should be able to see feet when we look down, just a qol change :)

[proud wren]

overwatch has such talented artists

[frosty yoke]

[civic quail]

DAWG

REPENT

[grim swan]

for qol

[civic quail]

Making shit 10 seconds quicker for you isn't really a huge quality of life feature 😭

[frosty yoke]

Completely off topic, but I saw a magnetic goose picture the other day and was tempted to post it in here.

[grim swan]

qol change though

[civic quail]

I'm just saying if we in spawn, and I catch you looking down, I will personally hunt you 😭

[grim swan]

I just wanna appreciate the artwork

[proud wren]

you totally should so i can see it

Found em. Quite a few on Amazon aswell.

[proud wren]

just realized doc left the discord

rip

[frosty yoke]

Wut? Pride?

[proud wren]

yea

[frosty yoke]

Rip. Hope everything is alright.

[unreal flame]

It dosen't run that smooth, but I think thats because im using a laptop

Skill issue

[obsidian cloud]

yeah definitely, game runs smooth as butter for me

[unreal flame]

I'll try to play it, if not I might as well refund it

Because I have games that need more storage, and those run smoother

[analog crypt]

He left a while ago

[proud wren]

i only just now noticed cause i realized that i hadn't seen a message from him in a hot minute

[analog crypt]

It be like that

[unreal flame]

Super meat boy it is then

[digital hamlet]

Inscryption

[unreal flame]

No, plus I decided to get Gttod when I get refund

[digital hamlet]

I mean… but you could get inscryption

[proud wren]

inscryption is a pretty good game

it's a little hard though

[dusky bridge]

After a 2 year long break from the game, I see that Siege bros haven't changed one bit

i popped off with the CAMRS and someone on the enemy team said "Learn recoil re***d"

[mental leaf]

I love inscryption. i love the style, the story, the gameplay. while it's difficult in some parts, i'd say it's a 9/10 for me

[wispy loom]

it's so funny hurting the fragile egos of 16 year olds

[dusky bridge]

Also like

The R word?

Really?

Fuckin 2016 called they want their insults back

[proud wren]

lucky it wasn't the hard R

[dusky bridge]

Oh they still do that

I've had at least 3 games where the first thing I hear spawning in is "NIIIIIIII-
you know the rest

[proud wren]

NIIIIIAGRA FAAALLS

[dusky bridge]

Lmao

But yeah siege bros are still in the mindset where they think screaming racial slurs makes them funny and cool

[proud wren]

are you saying a highschooler screaming the n-word over the mic isn't slightly funny

[dusky bridge]

Don't forget the f slur

[proud wren]

exactly

[dusky bridge]

And the t slur

I've seen a teammate kill an Osa and say "tr***y down"

[wispy loom]

Ubisoft truly has the best anti toxicity measures

[dusky bridge]

It was In voice chat

[wispy loom]

I thought those were recorded? or was that a different game

[dusky bridge]

Like people care about it anyway

I have a feeling that some people play the game so that they can be an asshole with no real world risk

Those people don't actually care about the complexities of siege, they can't grasp the nuance of the game, to them is just "call of duty with wacky gizmos"

They get banned for a week, go play CS, than come back and do it all again

[wispy loom]

I always liked R6's slow pace, but it always felt like I had to look in literally in every direction, which got tiring as hell, one of the reasons I play valorant instead

[dusky bridge]

That's one of the reasons I like it

That feeling that every step you take has consequences

That any mistake you make can and will be exploited

But also that YOU can exploit every mistake THEY make

[wispy loom]

the game is also absurdly sound focused, like you're supposed to keep the game at +10dbs to hear that single misstep or pickup just to discern their position or wether they've been knocked

[dusky bridge]

Yea

And I love it

I love it when games demand 100% of your focus

[wispy loom]

yeah that's fair

[dusky bridge]

It's not a game for everyone

[wispy loom]

I prefer reading my enemies, that's also why I like fighting games

hold on let me grab a clip

[dusky bridge]

Is it the "grappler brain" video

[wispy loom]

https://streamable.com/uxg7ba

no it's me being cracked in unrated (ranked makes me too nervous lmao)

[dusky bridge]

Also you can get a teammate to drone you in do you can get through places much faster

(Yes I know nobody does that without being in a squad but it's still a team based game)

[wispy loom]

oh yeaaah droning, that stuff is so useful and yet so useless in pubs

[dusky bridge]

There are so many thing I see players bitch about when the solution is teamwork

Like Clash

Guess what, this team based game wants you to work as a team

People will treat you like an asshole for suggesting teamwork

[crystal field]

cuz teamwork not fun

simple logic

[wispy loom]

nuh uh, cuz letting your teammate succeed in something means your fragile ego gets hurt

[crystal field]

exactly

[dusky bridge]

Me as Therm: "hey can we get a thatcher or kali to clear my hard breach so we can get in site"

"Shut up fa***t" teamkilled

[wispy loom]

how the fuck is the game still alive if people in soloq don't team up???

like valorant is less toxic

[dusky bridge]

I've also seen spawnpeekers get picked out of the window than start feeding the enemy team our info so they can make the round end faster

[wispy loom]

do all siege players live in 2016

[dusky bridge]

Yes

Based on the creativity of the insults at least

Also its funny how closed minded people are in a game about a team that celebrates diversity as its central focus

[wispy loom]

it's called "Rainbow 6" like... they're all gay

[dusky bridge]

Well technically there's only 3 but that's beside thr point

Flores is gay, Osa is trans, and Sens is NB

[crystal field]

i miss when siege was fun

[dusky bridge]

Siege was always fun

Siege players ruin it

[crystal field]

nuh uh

[dusky bridge]

Siege is still fun

[crystal field]

some of the newer operator gadgets are annoying as hell

[wispy loom]

this is the correct statement, Russian Badger's old videos are proof

[wispy loom]

sounds like an adaptability issue

[dusky bridge]

Yea

[crystal field]

i remember when you could ash rush without being hit by 15 different traps

now that was peak

[dusky bridge]

Just play call of duty if that's what you want

[wispy loom]

ash players when the slow and methodical game makes them play slow and methodical instead of rushdown braindead

[crystal field]

plus they literally locked away the best skins behind paid battlepass lootboxes

yucky

[dusky bridge]

They're skins

[wispy loom]

yeah the only good skin is furry smoke anyway

[crystal field]

a paid game should not have a paid battlepass you cannot change my mind

[dusky bridge]

Blame Ubi Corprate

Not the devs

[wispy loom]

yeah

[crystal field]

let alone locking away content that was previously free behind it

[wispy loom]

tbh I'd take a battle pass where I can earn everything in it guaranteed over loot boxes

[dusky bridge]

But anyway Siege to me just got more and more fun the more stuff was added, new strategies and synergies, having to come up with plans to take the new stuff down

[wispy loom]

is banshee still a thing, if that's what the gadget is called

[dusky bridge]

Melusi has been nerfed, don't worry lol

[wispy loom]

god bless

[crystal field]

total opposite for me

and the battlepass totally killed the game for me

[dusky bridge]

It just sounds like siege isn't the game for you on a conceptual level

[wispy loom]

yeah if you want a fast paced shooter with simple movement there's a billion CoDs out there

[dusky bridge]

Siege is a complex game with nearly infinite nuance

[crystal field]

siege was definitely not like how it is nowadays lol

[dusky bridge]

Yeah? Because that's how live service games work?

[wispy loom]

just because you can't rush in without thinking doesn't mean the game is much different

[crystal field]

but it does?

[crystal field]

live service games...

[dusky bridge]

Siege was always supposed to be live service

[wispy loom]

ye

[crystal field]

not my point?

i always found more enjoyment on siege because of its silliness rather than playing it like a competitive realistic shooter

[dusky bridge]

That's, not the point of siege

[crystal field]

and there was a LOT of that on launch

i know

and it slowly faded away

so the game doesnt feel the same to me

[wispy loom]

cod players when people play the tactical shooter tactically

[crystal field]

never play games how theyre supposed to be played

[dusky bridge]

Bruh

[wispy loom]

I mean just because people adapted to front door rushes doesn't mean you're not playing the game as intended. you're just bad at rushing

[crystal field]

that wasnt the only silly strat though

acog on smgs...

i miss it

acog on mac11

[dusky bridge]

Your problem with siege sounds like you went to go see 2001: A Space Oddesy and being upset there wasn't enough slapstick comedy

[wispy loom]

and you probably expect silly strats to work every time when it's kind of part of the experience to lose 9/10 times with them

[dusky bridge]

If you want to do silly stuff in a shooter go play a shooter than encourages you to do silly stuff

[crystal field]

what like fortnite

[wispy loom]

like ultrakill or max payne

[dusky bridge]

Yeah

[crystal field]

boring pve

[wispy loom]

I mean that too

[dusky bridge]

Or like tf2 or something, it's not like you're starved for choice

[wispy loom]

TF2 is just such a good movement shooter

source air strafing is the best thing ever

[bronze torrent]

i remember getting banned on a tf2 community server that i always played on and just never touched the game since

[wispy loom]

and it's got plenty of silly stuff to try out and get really good at, prime example: trolldier

[dusky bridge]

Siege has its target audience, and it simply appears that you are not their target audience

[crystal field]

i also liked siege cuz its like the only shooter on console without any aim assist

i thought that was pretty neat

[wispy loom]

it was also the only console shooter that nearly no one played on a controller

[crystal field]

i used to..

[onyx loom]

siege player has the AUDACITY not to like the game anymore, PUBLICLY SHAMED

[unreal flame]

What if I didn't

[crystal field]

you will be locked up

[unreal flame]

But Im not intetested in inscryption though

[small wren]

I'll get it instead

[knotty vigil]

just flawlessed conjunctivicus in Dead Cells

me, a carrion player

bruh this embassing, i've out of polymer bundles

[wispy loom]

how do you

[atomic spear]

i've been bulding weapons nonstop ye

[proud wren]

probably made too many energy pizzas

[atomic spear]

energy pizzas?

[proud wren]

one time i spent half of my polymer bundles cause ididn't realize how much the 100x energy pizza used

[proud wren]

you really don't know what an energy pizza is

literally just the solution to energy issues, you put it down and it dispenses 100 energy to everyone around it

[atomic spear]

i don't use those

[proud wren]

why not tho

[atomic spear]

i don't even know where to get them

[proud wren]

tenno lab dojo

[atomic spear]

and zenurik + lavos

[proud wren]

but if you have an extremely energy heavy frame zenurik by itself won't cut it

or if you ever wanna not use zenurik

cause the other ones are pretty good too

[atomic spear]

i might consider it hen protea prime emerges

protea has an insane enrgy problem

[proud wren]

i mostly use energy pizzas on my octavia

or my train when i want to create a singularity

[atomic spear]

my ten forma cinta is READY

with a riven i may or may not regret rerolling if infested liches come out

but it is cutting through SP circulus

and that 3000 polymer is gone

need another 300 for proboscis cernos

stradavar costs 8000 🤢

[unreal flame]

It's just not for me, chill

[atomic spear]

donated a bunch to my clan vault yesterday bc the one active guy with build permits built the bash lab

i can finally get yareli and ghoulsaw

each piece takes 3 days to research

[bitter granite]

How petty do you have to be

[tidal raven]

This is Elon Musk
His pettiness is unrivaled

[bitter granite]

May I introduce to Kayne West

Dude leaked his own kid’s school just to get him kicked out of that school and sent to his

[tidal raven]

💀
God damn

[bitter granite]

Leaking your own kid’s information is crazy

Especially when they are still in elementary

[tidal raven]

Yeah
And just to get your kid moved to your own school

[bronze torrent]

im just waiting for an alteratnive twitter app

i wish kick succeeds and twitch downfalls. cuz kick's videoplayback and chat time is godly and night n day compared to twitch

[drifting kernel]

if kick gets it's shit together then maybe

doubt it tho

[civic quail]

It could happen, but yeah as you said, unlikely. I've been off of a majority of social media for a bit, so it's not of huge concern to me; however it would be nice to see Twitch get better or just outright fail over time

[bronze torrent]

twitch is too big to fall unless they really fuck it up.

same thing for twitter

a thing that will never fail regardless of what they do is Pokemon.

TemTem which is one of the alternatives to pokemon is actually a sick game. a better game actually compared to pokemon's latest release but will never be more popular cuz its already too late

its that type of vibe. it can be there but it will never surpass its original no matter how garbage the original is because everyone is already comfy with the inital platform.

[warm maple]

What does that even mean?

[civic quail]

I'll say there were certainly some features I wasn't fond of, but it did try something new. Regardless, it takes a long time for huge things to fail, but they eventually do. If Blockbuster could, just about anything tangibly could

Although, people are difficult sometimes

[tall wadi]

At the rate Elon is fucking with twitter I’d imagine it won’t be long until more alternatives start popping up

[wintry mantle]

A lot of people constantly say twitch is too big to fail but one thing twitch needs to keep aloft is it's big streamers and most of those or thinking of going to other platforms, their viewers arent going to recycle to other streamers thats not how dedicated audiences work, each time a huge streamer leaves twitch they take a large amount of twitch's user base with them

[bronze torrent]

japan pokemon will never die

its like a black hole, the point of no return

i love the 2v2 aspect of temtem and i love how u have a mana bar instead of pp turns so you cant spam the same move like in pokemon

[wintry mantle]

The pokemon temtem comparison is completely off, temtem could never compare to pokemon because of the competitive market, and the advertising, temtem doesn't have a growing competitive market or even a fast growing mascot like pokemon's Pikachu or Charizard

[bronze torrent]

it was so refreshing and actually genuine.

and dont even get me started on the visual animations of the attacks compared to pokemons latest attack animations..god damn

even pokemon xd attack animations were more creative and interesting then current pokemon games and that came out in 2005

[tall wadi]

A nice pokemon alternative I enjoyed was Coromon

It’s pretty good

[wintry mantle]

I love nexomon

Or if people played it more Digimon cybersleuth/hackers memory

[bronze torrent]

theres no off about between the 2 since they both have the same concept of taming creatures.
the main point is not about temtem really its just every alternative pokemon game will never achieve above pokemon is what my main point is no matter how objectively better the alternatives are in gameplay and even visuals.

it doesn't make me upset im just slightly sad that these type of games that are genuine deserves more attention but people are too comfortable with pokemon

[tall wadi]

I thought Temtem had a lot of underlying problems

From what I’ve heard atleast

[civic quail]

I've played it, and it has both some massive improvements and some serious steps backwards

[wintry mantle]

In relation to twitch actions vs it's competitors and Pokemon and temtem, yes it is a very off comparison lol pokemon is strong growing titan that has a genius advertising team and active competitive and innovative(if you don't get the wolf flick treatment that is he got fucked fucked this year) compared to temtems poor advertising and non existent competitive scene

Twitch is a titan that's lopping off it's limbs lol

[civic quail]

That is true. Although, Pokemon similarly doesn't do itself favors, Twitch is consistently scaring people away

[drifting kernel]

alteast kick is taking all the racist 13 year olds off twitch lol

[wintry mantle]

It doesn't but people are willing to overlook it's short comings for a slight amount of fan service

[bronze torrent]

whats actually sad is that the competetiveness in gameplay for temtem is actually better in balance.
even the advertsiement for temtem was pretty damn good its just that no matter how good it is its far too late as it will be compared to pokemon as said in 99% reivews. there no off connection between the two.

and i already said about twitch and twitter can fall if they fuck it up whilst pokemone would never regardless of what they do

[civic quail]

Nah wdym it just got XQC on there

[wintry mantle]

But also 60% of pokemon's user base isn't really into the competitive, I think I'm in that 60% after I heard what happened to wolf glick lol

[bronze torrent]

theres people giving temtem or any other poekmone alternative games a chance but people who are already comfortable with pokemon will always compare it with pokemon

its far too late for any games to compete with pokemon and that's what makes me sad

[civic quail]

Plus I'd argue that at least occasionally Pokemon takes steps forward; while Twitch only takes steps back

[drifting kernel]

[bronze torrent]

the fan-service of pokemons is insane. especially the girls.
the girls visual character designs is like 10x better than all boys, but i guess that applies to pretty much every other games and platform.#

[drifting kernel]

seriously tho fuck xqc
i hope the "loud = funny" shit burns in the deepest layer in hell

[bronze torrent]

i cringed at his latest interview with h3h3

[drifting kernel]

didnt he do the worm LOL

[bronze torrent]

my god...

😔

[drifting kernel]

why are influencers so weird

[wintry mantle]

The advertising for temtem is hardly seen unless you go to like GameStop or something compared to pokemon, but when it comes to competitive, despite what a lot of people think pokemon's competitive market is constantly balanced by the official league and has to be rebalanced when old or new pokemon are (re)introduced

[wintry mantle]

While they can be better I agree with people on that terms gamefreak does take snail steps forward instead of backwards as long as we don't get another sword and shield release fuck up

[civic quail]

I honestly really like Pokemon's philosophy in regards to competitive. Specifically how they continue to make it easier to get into it. Every release makes it easier to get into Comp, without days of tedious grinding

[bronze torrent]

pokemon introduces rng and thats what makes it more fun in general.
temtem itnetionally makes everything balence to the brim. and that sometimes can be a bad thing in design but this is subjective at this point

in the end its about the fun factor

[civic quail]

Exactly

I'll say as a fan of both

[bronze torrent]

pokemon just happens to appeal the wider audience cuz it got its spoitlight first and stayed strong

but rn im really disliking the modern/latest pokemon games

[wintry mantle]

Oh yeah scarlet and violets walk into competitive has been the easiest yet and I love it because it can easily make a broken hisuian arcanine lol

[bronze torrent]

the amount of bugs and rushed content is annoying me

[tall wadi]

BW/BW2 was peak

[bronze torrent]

but its the point where it doesn't matter since they past the barrier of "we fucked up, people will still buy it."

[civic quail]

Pokemon has it's massive failings. Seriously needs to get their shit together sometimes. However, it does at times make progress and it certainly does have inklings of passion. Temtem is shining with passion, but definitely needs the time to re-evaluate, improve, and perhaps streamline some of its less savory aspects

[tall wadi]

XY and SM were both alright

Then it went all downhill

[wintry mantle]

Tbf with a bit of grinding other than shiny hunting you can make any pokemon competition ready

[tall wadi]

I stopped playing Pokemon in general after SwSh

[bronze torrent]

i stopped after diamond and pearl. know a bit of black and white. everything after that is hazy for me, tried sword sheidl after many years, still good but i prefer the old school ones

[civic quail]

I loved SM, XY got a lot of hate but it wasn't great, S/Sh deserve death, and Arceus feels like the beginning of some real improvement

[bronze torrent]

pokemon sapphire, emerald, ruby was my true pokemon game

[civic quail]

I'm a hard B/W and B2/W2 fan boy, but I appreciate qualities of the newer releases and see passion here and there

Honestly never enjoyed D/P/Pl

It's just not for me

[wintry mantle]

Story wise I wish they gave my baby dragon skeleton his story in sword and shield instead of making him a final boss and not giving us lore

[wintry mantle]

If Digimon came out with a new monster tamer it would come easily in #2

[bronze torrent]

u just unlocked a brand new core fresh memory that i didnt know i had.

digimon OOMF

[civic quail]

LMAO 😭

[wintry mantle]

Idk if you remember but sword and shield legit bricked People's routers and modems with a weird bug

[bronze torrent]

omfg digimon

[wintry mantle]

Cybersleuth was a great game

[bronze torrent]

Digimon Tamers anime.
Digimon rumble arena 2 PS2 i think

these 2 my lord was the best thing ever

[wintry mantle]

But the lead detective made me sad she was a Digimon all along

And I thought she was hot

[bronze torrent]

childhood crushes yeayea? i had alot of crushes for pokemon girls :V

[wintry mantle]

I recommend cybersleuth/hackers memory on Nintendo switch

It has more adult themes

[bronze torrent]

iv never actually experienced modern digimon games and content

its all in the past for me

[wintry mantle]

I remember playing the ones on DS with apollomon and dianamon

Digimon dusk and dawn

https://tenor.com/view/omnimon-power-fierce-gif-15772857

[atomic spear]

pokemons biggest failure is no new mystery dungeon

[wintry mantle]

Oh wait no I beat cybersleuth last year

Not as a kid it wasn't out back then

[wintry mantle]

I miss those stories that make you cry

[atomic spear]

digimons biggest failure was not leaning on the furry audience

[wintry mantle]

They really didn't do that much

Gunfire reborn can have that

[drifting kernel]

i will never not laugh that nona on the loading screen has her feet out
