yes

#

shooty blow up machines

#

just nuke the world except yourself

lavish umbra
#

I feel the same about aus vad, we should build homes for people first and perfect our infrastructure. Life is even more complicated now though since countries always have an influx of new people.

tame sparrow
#

The money that the us govt spends blowing people to shit in a single day could feed, clothe, and care for me for the rest of my entire life and multiple lives afterwords. Just the cost of the ordnance. not even factoring in what we pay all the soldiers and civilian support personnel

frail warren
#

then you don't need shooty blow up machines

lavish umbra
#

People need a cap so we can sort all of this out

frail warren
#

just make the military from is to isn't

winged sigil
#

but murica needs to insert itself everywhere

tame sparrow
#

I don't think we need to abolish the military, but we definitely need to abolish the policy we have where we never stop being at war, ever.

void spade
#

@tame sparrow but without all that we can't do things like persuade foreign leaders into coming to a peace talk and blowing them up via drone strike

blissful raven
#

yeah america is like a rapist with herpes these days

frail warren
#

just make war to warn't

tame sparrow
#

this is getting me heated, I'm going to read for a while and calm down

blissful raven
#

lol

frail warren
#

no

#

get anger

lavish umbra
#

Others started wars before and there will always be more

blissful raven
#

well its not like we don't need any army or defenses, russia would wipe us off the planet tomorrow if everything was defunded. just seems like that shit's literally the only thing america ever spends money on

lavish umbra
#

Someone has to be on the front foot because people suck

blissful raven
#

the NRA supplies weapons to the entire world, courtesy of america

#

that includes shit like nukes and WMDs

#

like, why

#

it kind of goes back to the thing they tell you on planes about putting on your own oxygen mask before anyone elses

tame sparrow
#

the... NRA?

blissful raven
#

yeah the NRA does WMDs

tame sparrow
#

The national rifle association???

blissful raven
#

yeah, let me see if I can find something

#

they were basically giving palestine all their weapons

lavish umbra
#

It’s probably a big source of weapons, they have to come from somewhere

tame sparrow
#

The NRA is a lobbying organization

lavish umbra
#

Pistols in aus come from somewhere

frail warren
#

yeah

#

america makes lots of shooty boom boom weapons

#

and gives it to people

#

for lots o money

#

then accuses them of having weapons

#

and going to war with them

blissful raven
#

I know what they do

#

they don't just focus on "rifles"

#

I cant remember the specific incident I'm thinking of so google isnt' the best help here

frail warren
#

yes, nuks are "rifles"

lavish umbra
#

Middle eastern countries make their own of course, they are great at making ak’s but plenty of guns must come from America

#

The sooner America can get gun laws through the better

frail warren
#

is a hotdog a sandwich

tame sparrow
#

Our gun laws have less than nothing to do with the availability of arms in the middle east

lavish umbra
#

As proud as America is of its independence the guns have to go now. Nukes will be the next war weapon anyway

tame sparrow
#

And our arms manufacturers aren't going to stop manufacturing just because firearms become illegal for the public to own

blissful raven
#

well honestly there are too many articles about the NRA being involved in coverups about bombings and stuff for me to find the exact one I'm looking for. There are articles on how they have funded the middle east though.

frail warren
#

is a hotdog a sandwich

#

is a hotdog a sandwichis a hotdog a sandwichis a hotdog a sandwichis a hotdog a sandwichis a hotdog a sandwichis a hotdog a sandwichis a hotdog a sandwich

tame sparrow
#

And frankly, there are more guns than people in the USA, and none of us that have them are giving them up without a long and bloody fight

blissful raven
#

basically the NRA has about 10 articles published on some seedy bullshit they are doing daily

#

well thats part of the thing

lavish umbra
#

Yes so sooner than later

blissful raven
#

so people buy guns here in the US, including foriegners.

lavish umbra
#

Hard enough already

blissful raven
#

its not hard to export that stuff, its linked to drug cartels in Mexico actually

frail warren
#

is a hotdog a sandwich

blissful raven
#

and the middle east is known for just using our own crap against us

#

this is even before some group like the NRA capitalizing on the situation

#

but at any rate.

#

I feel like its best to focus on individuals before all this foriegn stuff

#

and the approach for that is logical, one can just use Maslow's hierarchy as a starting point

lavish umbra
#

There’s no reason to have guns, like you are going to shoot a home invader. You’d go to jail for murder or manslaughter. Even cops are getting arrested now. There won’t be another civil war.

blissful raven
#

everyone needs to be healthy, get food/water/housing

frail warren
#

why would you need guns

blissful raven
#

in order to even contribute in a meaningful way to society

frail warren
#

if no one has guns

#

no one will shoot with guns

#

not even the police

#

the best they get is a taser

#

so non-lethality

#

if someone is gonna rob you, just stick a knife in em

blissful raven
#

nah in america the police shoot first ask questions later

frail warren
#

we gotta change that tho

blissful raven
#

part of the problem is the american police force is basically as militarized as possible without being the SS

#

ironically, police have issues with this too

#

police suicides are up

#

like, all sorts of bad statistics involving police dying and whatnot thanks to this militant shit for the police

#

one would think "hey lets just get a level headed sheriff in office to like, not be a pile of shit"

#

but it doesn't seem to matter who is elected anymore. the sickness is now societal

#

I'd be all for disarming the police, honestly

foggy thorn
#

what are you talking about

blissful raven
#

politics

lavish umbra
#

It’s the hardest job in the world. I’m not saying that means they can get away with corruption but they see the most horrible things humans do every hour every day.

#

So I admire honest cops all the more

blissful raven
#

yeah, it doesn't make it any easier to get them all into a totalitarian mindset of just killing everyone

lavish umbra
#

It’s a hard job

blissful raven
#

ok sela

#

pls fix america

lavish umbra
#

Some cops suck hard tho

foggy thorn
#

politics are bad

winged sigil
#

murica is bad

frail warren
#

just turn america off and turn it back on again

blissful raven
#

well the stigma around police tends to attract all the wrong types these days

foggy thorn
#

agree

frail warren
#

it'll fix itself

#

now you can try with grandpa

blissful raven
#

I don't want to see that happen

#

fixing itself = revolution

#

I'm not very eager for that

#

rather just move out of the country

frail warren
#

well, not a total revolution

#

just a revolution in some sectors

#

like the military

blissful raven
#

idk

frail warren
#

let's call it reform

blissful raven
#

thats not predictable

frail warren
#

make it predictable then

#

ez

blissful raven
#

I think first you'd have to have some usurper who clearly divides everyone into a life or death situation

#

Trump is apparently not enough

#

I feel like he would be in most countries

frail warren
#

trump^2

blissful raven
#

well thats why I don't really want to see what it would be like

#

because it would probably take a hitler type of person

frail warren
#

yeah

blissful raven
#

and america would be destroyed because of it

lavish umbra
#

Yeah what comes after trump will be the kicker

#

If people can handle trump then what next

frail warren
#

there's like 50 billion dems and 1 rep

wicked niche
#

Big problem is anytime anything tries to fix america big problems it becomes the most divisive thing in the country

blissful raven
#

idk

frail warren
#

idk

lavish umbra
#

It’s the same everywhere

blissful raven
#

I'm also tired of talking politics

#

not sure if its the same everywhere really.

#

a lot of places have similar problems, but like several first world nations are doing fine

lavish umbra
#

Our politicians are controlled by coal and poker machines

blissful raven
#

the problem is most of those nations are funded by america, china, russia, etc

lavish umbra
#

And unions

blissful raven
#

so they are almost just an extension of another country

wicked niche
#

Not really, theres polarization everywhere, but usa has it really bad

blissful raven
#

yeah

#

there are other countries that have it bad as well

#

apparently the UK

#

Australia

#

france I guess

#

some EU countries

lavish umbra
#

Trump is just more shouty and controversial, our prime minister is as much a jackass just more nerdy

blissful raven
#

everybody that has recently elected or almost elected a nationalist

wicked niche
#

Like most first world nations dont have an endless fight over getting mandatory background checks for gun ownership

blissful raven
#

are you in the UK?

frail warren
#

trump is shouty shooty

blissful raven
#

because you had that brexit stuff

wicked niche
#

Canada

frail warren
#

he does politics like he does buisness

blissful raven
#

yeah well, america has a mental health crisis right now

frail warren
#

treu

blissful raven
#

the gun ownership thing is largely that

#

crazy people shouldn't have guns

wicked niche
#

Everywhere that recognises mental health has a mental health problem

blissful raven
#

there is another argument there that its largely a cultural argument as well, discrimination against blacks essentially. I can't speak on that issue

wicked niche
#

Though the usa does have way worse problems due to it

blissful raven
#

well, the USA does nothing ever about mental health problems

wicked niche
#

Costs too much with the massively inflated healthcare costs

blissful raven
#

the only ones in the USA who have the power to do anything on that topic are courts, after everything is said and done

#

It goes back to when the US had insane asylums that were unethical as fuck

#

those were shut down, everyone was released

frail warren
#

second thing

blissful raven
#

the problem is they weren't replaced with something better

wicked niche
#

What? Lobotomies were bad? /s

lavish umbra
#

Society in general isn’t great for mental health anywhere. Public schools are going mess most people up at least a little.

frail warren
#

why do people interchangeably use USA and US?

#

and public schools literally makes you insane

blissful raven
#

they are the same

burnt pecan
#

I always use US, cause its quicker

blissful raven
#

USA, US, america, its the same

wicked niche
#

Even people who supposedly support rhe mentally ill still dont want to interact with them

blissful raven
#

well, america's public school situation is pretty bad too

burnt pecan
#

america is pretty bad too

blissful raven
#

but kids manage to kid through it at least

frail warren
#

yeah

wicked niche
#

Most of em

frail warren
#

most

blissful raven
#

interacting with the mentally ill is a skill

frail warren
#

some of them just drop out

#

mentally ill is a skill

blissful raven
#

and there are societal stigmas around talking to them

frail warren
#

yeah

blissful raven
#

there are just a bunch of problems with that

#

basically a self perpetuating cycle

hushed gull
#

People at work come grab me when we have mentally ill customers because nobody else knows how to deal with them, it's kinda sad

frail warren
#

i say we do the sparta

wicked niche
#

Not particularly, interactingwith the mentally ill just requires a bit of basic compassion and decent nature

frail warren
#

and kill the weak

lavish umbra
#

I wish

blissful raven
#

it can be more complicated than that depending on their mental state, and if they are mentally handicapped

lavish umbra
#

And have lions running about

#

To cull the herd

void spade
#

well @hushed gull you also have experience dealing with me every day

blissful raven
#

we tend to project ourselves onto others a lot, making it hard to understand the handicapped and mentally ill

hushed gull
#

I once had a regular customer at an old job, she was deaf and autistic. It took an incredible effort to work with her in any real capacity

#

@void spade calm down dumdum

errant forge
#

Guess what I just downgraded from a horrible version!

#

Or, don't.

#

I know you don't care.

foggy thorn
#

if you know then why do you say it

wicked niche
#

Right, but the vast majority of people with mental illness arent handicapped, they are at disadvantage,

#

But they can function

hushed gull
#

Isn't that what handicapped means 🤔

blissful raven
#

my mom works at a nursing group for disabled kids, she has these stories about how the administrative staff constantly mistreat the kids because they think in such a way that they see the kids as functioning normal people

hushed gull
#

When you play golf with a handicap, you're not not playing, you're playing at a disadvantage

wicked niche
#

When it comes to mental health i hear handicap = non functional

frail warren
#

but it's not

blissful raven
#

its not purposeful on the part of the admin staff, they just can't get in the mindset that sometimes a disability affects someone beyond the conventional mentality we define as human

hushed gull
#

Sure that's probably a stereotype, but from a technical standpoint that's not what a handicap is

tame sparrow
#

It doesn't matter what you hear, that's not the definition of the term

frail warren
#

Several people are typing

#

oh no

wicked niche
#

No, doesnt stop even the supportive folks from thimking that

frail warren
#

thimking

hushed gull
#

Continuing to spread that definition as something that's common does more to put the handicapped community down than just ignoring it entirely

distant siren
#

thimmking

wicked niche
#

On phone mate, no autocorrect

distant siren
#

thiccking

blissful raven
#

well, mentally ill can mean that you are fully functioning with an entirely different way of interpreting the world around you

#

though generally that does count as a disability

wicked niche
#

Dont need to tell me twice frispy

hushed gull
#

Right. So somebody with dyslexia has a mental handicap, somebody who thinks their neighbor can hear their thoughts has a mental illness

wicked niche
#

Yeah, thats more or less me p4wn4g3

hushed gull
#

It's a square and rectangle kinda situation

blissful raven
#

yeah

void spade
#

yeah

blissful raven
#

^

hushed gull
#

Anyway, I do my best to adjust in my work to accomodate any kind of disability or mental illness

blissful raven
#

yeah, we all should honestly

#

the world would be a better place

wicked niche
#

World could use more folk like you

blissful raven
#

life is shitty to everyone, nobody can help it

hushed gull
#

I very frequently have deaf customers who I spend three times my normal amount of time with because we have to write everything down instead of communicating verbally, but I'm not gonna take shortcuts to degrade their experience

#

If i have to spend fifteen minutes writing out my spiel, I'll do it

livid lava
#

ugh I lived my whole life surrounded by handicapped ppl (mentally and physicaly) then I moved out and boi, now I live in building where there are non-profit organizations with mentally ill kids and ppl

hushed gull
#

Also god bless the internet age for translating at hand. Verbal translation has gotten me through to an 80 year old russian lady who had never even owned a flip phone

blissful raven
#

they say addiction is a disease these days kvet, just sayin

livid lava
#

I am not handicapped lol

hushed gull
#

I think people are saying disease but mean affliction, but that's kinda splitting hairs

livid lava
#

I just drink more then I should

blissful raven
#

well one of these days you'll have to fight that demon but that's your business

wicked niche
lavish umbra
#

I’m cool with it and am nice to everyone, well the same niceness to everyone but personally I’d like to be able to survive on my own against nearly anything. To always need someone would annoy me.

hushed gull
#

I'm a poly substance addict, no physical addictions for me thanks

livid lava
#

like you would need always someone

wicked niche
#

It is intensely annoying boat

livid lava
#

my dad is on wheelchair, been like 35 years, does he need help ? no

#

lots of mentally and psysicaly handicapped ppl do not need help

#

that is just false believe

wicked niche
#

Well not all the time is the thing,

blissful raven
#

help doing what

livid lava
#

and I lived in flat complex where there were only those ppl

blissful raven
#

I mean, you don't need to pick them up and put them elsewhere

#

in many cases that does more harm than help

#

but uh, they need other kinds of help

livid lava
#

depend of the condition

wicked niche
#

I dont need help all the time, but i have plenty of moments in a year where i do

blissful raven
#

we all need help sometimes

hushed gull
#

I think help takes a very "active" definition nowadays. The handicapped of various measures are passively helped by sidewalks, ramps, pictographic instructions, attention paid to guiding designs in hall and walkways, consistency of color usage, etc.

wicked niche
#

Right, but just as an example i am ocd (and some other stuff) with regards to washing, or moreaccurately avoiding contamination

blissful raven
#

yeah my grandpa is like that, pretty severely

#

he doesn't allow anyone to help in any way though so he's kind of impossible

wicked niche
#

Day to day i'm fine, but something like corona happens in the news and i need someone to help me understand it and allieviate some of the fear

blissful raven
#

yeah I guess that makes sense

hushed gull
#

My family is basically mental illness utopia, combined with unwillingness to accept help

#

It's a fun time for all involved

livid lava
#

being scared of corona when there is thing called flu

wicked niche
#

That was my oma

blissful raven
#

kvet its irrational for a reason

wicked niche
#

It doesnt make sense

void spade
#

@hushed gull idk what ur talking about

blissful raven
#

cognitive dissonance

wicked niche
#

It's a abnormality in how my brain developed and makes connections

hushed gull
#

@void spade you took me to the store to help you return something once

void spade
#

dawg

hushed gull
#

And then tried to do it yourself anyway lol

void spade
#

what if they get mad at me

hushed gull

Before panicking

blissful raven
#

I have a lot of the signs of OCD so I've been treated for it, but it seems like I might not truly be OCD and rather just have some of the habits based off my epilepsy coping mechanisms

autumn copper
#

So, someone posted a guide on how to switch your save to a new phone?

void spade
#

whatchu mean

blissful raven
#

I have anxiety problems sometimes but yeah

void spade
#

just use helium or adb

blissful raven
#

yes rdi

void spade
#

ez pz

blissful raven
#

its my guide

void spade
#

rip p4wn's guide

autumn copper
#

Do I just use Helium to copy the save to my PC, then move said save to the new phone?

void spade
#

yeah

lavish umbra
#

I had some crazy anxiety for a while. Had to stop smoking weed. I very rarely smoke weed now and have far less depression and anxiety. It’s different for everyone but yeah, it’s worth trying if you are a smoker and feel off.

winged sigil
#

adb might be easier

blissful raven
#

though it might be easier to use adb, in all honestly

void spade
#

^

blissful raven
#

yeah

void spade
#

helium is just bloated adb

blissful raven
#

I might add that to the guide.

autumn copper
#

No clue wtf adb is.

blissful raven
#

alien do you need your scripts for the make files?

void spade
#

it's what helium uses to do everything

blissful raven
#

or can you just make backup and make restore

winged sigil
#

android debug bridge

autumn copper
#

Hey Alien, can I be ghetto and ask you a favor in DM?

void spade
#

uh

autumn copper
#

Was something Static offered, but he forgot.

winged sigil
#

sure

blissful raven
#

anyway for now RDI I'm gonna find the guide I have

void spade
#

I didn't forget I was using Kuaka as my test dummy

#

and I fucked up my instructions so Kuaka fucked up his game and I didn't want to fuck urs up

winged sigil
#

you can looks for pings of overlords?

void spade
#

yeah that's what I did p4wn

wicked niche
#

It's really bizzare what messes with a persons head, i live where weed is legal, but i refuse to touch it cause i know itcan mess with my head

void spade
#

weed helps me function slightly better

blissful raven
wicked niche
#

Yep, different for everyone

lavish umbra
#

There’s a reason they made it illegal in the first place, I smoked for 14 years and it took a year to get it out of my system, I sometimes lose my temper more but I can handle it and feel a lot better

#

I’d feel years slip away before, but now I’m cool doing my thing every day

blissful raven
#

but yeah, alien can you just make backup -> make restore with adb?

void spade
#

I just feel the same but a lil shittier without it

#

you should be able to p4wn

blissful raven
#

or is that your script doing that

void spade
#

oh

#

well that's the script

blissful raven
#

idk which part is aliens scripts and which is not

livid lava
#

and I am the addicted who is destroying my health huh

wicked niche
#

For a lot of folks weed mellows them out, plus it'sa damn good painkiler

void spade
#

all the make commands are aliens script

golden ivy
#

oh man

blissful raven
#

ok well...

void spade
#

@livid lava lmao

blissful raven
#

adb does have a simple backup function in it though

void spade
#

yeah aliens script just makes it even simpler

#

if you open the makefile up in notepad you can see all the commands that are used

blissful raven
#

its just like backup lavaflame.com.etc

void spade
#

yeah

blissful raven
#

and restore same

#

I did include a reference to an adb guide in my helium guide for those that prefer that option

lavish umbra
#

I just thought about regrets and sadness a lot, I’d feel happy of course but then full on sadness at times. There is always a price to pay with any drug. Pills weed whatever it is.

wicked niche
#

Hmm i should learn more about android under the hood

#

Aint that the truth boat

winged sigil
#

yea, my script just calls the adb command with the appropriate arguments

4.0 smh

tame sparrow
#

ADB can bypass restrictions on files located in an apps "protected space" right?

winged sigil
#

well, it can backup the files in there

tame sparrow
#

As a mass or individually? Like can I pluck the idle skilling save file out and store it somewhere safe, or is it going to be bundled with the whole package of stuff and inaccessible without root?

golden ivy
#

Hullo

I finally got around to watching Jojo Pt. 5

I'm kinda in shock at how good that was

But the biggest emotion is terrible sadness

I can't believe its over

it backups the whole directory in /data/data/[AppName]

but you can extract that

Blog posts before recipes are goldmines for SEO

Don't hate the player, hate the game

I hate both

Wrong, you can hate both the game, and the douchebag playing the game

I never got the appeal of Soul Calibur, I think I need to like play the older ones

Nah.

I have the new one sitting in my unredeemed keys. It just always came off as "Tekken but with more customization"

fading nymph

The newest game yes.

Lets you make your own character

Tekken 7 is just so good I don't really need any other 3D arena fighter

Still prefer playstation all stars battle royale

Fat princess ftw.

that isn't a 3D arena fighter

that's a smash clone

Hmmmm that's not enough, was gonna shit out my humble bundle key backlog

void spade
#

I wanna do that too but I don't have a ton anymore

#

I might do it for all my humble choice games

#

cause so far the two humble choice bundles have been eh to me

outer spear
#

There’s a new humble bundle up?

void spade
#

I'm talking about the monthly bundles

#

it's called Humble Choice now

tame sparrow
#

Would you mind terribly looking at my steam wishlist and seeing if you have any from it?

outer spear
#

Ah, those

void spade
#

yeah send me a link

pliant schooner
#

i dont look at them anymore

outer spear
#

Sure

void spade
#

I don't look at the main bundles yeah

#

since I get plenty of games from the monthly's

#

only reason I don't cancel is because I want to keep the classic plan so I get a low price and all of the available games

tame sparrow
#

I had to cancel over a year ago because poor

outer spear
#

I would get the humble monthly but there’s no way I could play that many games

golden ivy
outer spear
#

But I have played lots and lots of games over the years, so maybe I could get around to finishing them

pliant schooner
#

its funny cause the games i play are all free

tame sparrow
#

They would eat each other

#

I think the girl would win, she seems strong

golden ivy
#

Yeah probably hahaha

outer spear
#

Vad, are you looking to see if the games on your wishlist are actually good or?

#

Like opinions on them or something

tame sparrow
#

No, if he has the games on my wishlist and is willing to give me a key then I don't have to buy the game lol

fading nymph
#

I used to humble bundle. Then i got loot boxes and i gave up on pc games

outer spear
#

Ah nice

#

Pc games are great

#

You got stuff like CrossCode and dead cells

fading nymph
#

I play dead cells on console.

outer spear
#

Oh yeah that’s right

#

I forgot they got ports of that

fading nymph
#

Switch and xbox

outer spear
#

Ye, good platforms for them too

void spade

btw @tame sparrow Devil Daggers is fucking awesome

#

I am pleased that is at the top of ur wishlist

tame sparrow

Oh that's the sort by price option lmao

ohhhh

DOOM Eternal and Cyberpunk 2077 are the actual top

why the fuck is Clicker Heroes 2 THIRTY DOLLARS

IDK, been waiting for it to go on sale for a couple bucks since it came out

it never seems to go on sale tho

void spade

out of all ur games I MIGHT have a code for Shantae and VA11 Hall-a

tame sparrow
#

Oooooh very nice

#

If you DON'T want them, I would be most grateful for them

fading nymph
#

I want soda dungeon 2 to come out

void spade
#

yeah for sure, I have a 675+ long backlog so

tame sparrow
#

:O

void spade
#

I haven't beaten a large majority of the games I have on steam

fading nymph
#

Static doesnt finish games.

#

I dont play finishable games. Lmao

woven apex
#

I always feel like I should complete a game just because I paid for it

void spade
#

well 99% of the games I own were gotten on deep discounts or through bundles

woven apex
#

But that's a bad motivation imo

void spade
#

I play a game and if it's fun I'll keep playing

outer spear
#

My number one rule is to never force yourself to play video games

#

Or do anything you thing is fun

tame sparrow
#

Don't feel bad. I spent $60 on monster hunter world the day it came out only to discover that I don't like it at all

void spade
#

I tried REALLY HARD to like monster hunter world

woven apex
#

Rip

outer spear
#

If you pay for a beer, you don’t have to finish it. Never force yourself to finish the beer

void spade
#

and like

#

it's fun hunting and fighting the monsters and shit

#

But once I'm not doing that it kinda gets eh

outer spear
#

if you go into MH:W expediting a real monster hunter game or an action adventure game you’re gonna get disappointed

#

And I love monster hunter world, but it tries to do two things at once

#

And it does both of them poorly

woven apex
#

I wonder if devs make games knowing that most people won't finish it

outer spear
#

But it’s a fun experience crafting and learning and fighting

tame sparrow
#

For me the combat doesn't feel rewarding. you spend ten or twenty minutes beating the shit out of something. Who wants every fight to be a boss fight? No thanks. I want to mow down some scrubs.

outer spear
#

Lol, that’s the whole point of monster hunter

tame sparrow
#

Yeah I found that out after spending $60 lol

outer spear
#

In previous MH titles they make you mow down scrubs to the point you’re sick of it

#

And then the challenge kicks in and you’re addicted to the hunt

void spade
#

I like every fight being a boss fight, and I think the fights are fun until you have to chase it for like 5 minutes and it just keeps fucking running from you

outer spear
#

Every fight is a harder and harder boss fight

void spade
#

Shadow of the colossus is only boss fights as well

outer spear
#

And it’s a frustrating mess and you mess up and mess up until you know every tactic and plan and map and it’s glorious

tame sparrow
#

Shadow of the Colossus had a shitload of really cool exploration where you weren't constantly in danger of getting fucked by a mean looking dodo monster

void spade
#

LMAO

#

I love the dodo

woven apex
#

A boss fight should feel rewarding for the time you built up to it, instead of just only boss fights

void spade
#

I think boss only things can be done well, but it's very hard to do them well

outer spear
#

I don’t think so, a boss fight doesn’t have to be a penultimate experience

void spade
#

because you want every boss to be meaningful and unique and engaging

outer spear
#

I’d say MH does that in its own way

void spade
#

but it gets really hard to do that when you need to make enough bosses that fit those criteria to pad out the whole game

tame sparrow
#

Wow according to the reviews for clicker heroes 2 it is still basically early access with very few updates and very little story/content progression. Still $30 wtf

outer spear
#

Each monster has its own personality and uniqueness and rewards

void spade
#

wdym basically early access, the steam page says its early access

woven apex
#

That's why I liked Terraria's mechanics, oh, you beat all the bosses? Hardmode time bitch, get ready to die

outer spear
#

It’s meaningful and engaging in that way

void spade
#

yeah but the process leading UP to those bosses never really changes I feel

#

and that creates a lot of the monotony

outer spear
#

The process is learning the systems and understanding how to prepare

woven apex
#

That's true, but you can't really rid a game of the grinding process

outer spear
#

Kinda like dwarf fortress

#

The game isn’t beating the game

#

The game is learning how to play the game

tame sparrow
#

Eat meal. Put on pants. Go out to kill monster. spend 20 minutes, cut off tail, either kill or capture, then repeat that until you can make new pants. Then go back, get another meal, put on new pants, etc. Not a fun gameplay loop for me

outer spear
#

Observe, test the patterns, find the weakness, overcome

#

You can boil down any gameplay loop to a series of actions like that

woven apex
#

That would create the need for a very mechanics based game

tame sparrow
#

I know the steam page for CH2 says its still EA but it should have had some progression by now for thirty fucking bucks, don't you think?

outer spear
#

That applies to literally every game that has a looped mechanic

tame sparrow
#

I wasn't criticizing the fact that the gameplay loops, what I said was the gameplay loop isn't fun for me.

woven apex
#

Just mashing left click isn't really testing patterns

outer spear
#

In previous MH, mashing left click would get you slaughtered

#

In Low Rank MHW you can get away with it

#

That I can agree with king

woven apex
#

Well idk Mh, but left click could be something else

#

Like attack-dodge-attack-dodge

#

If it works it works and why would you change that

outer spear
#

Because it doesn’t work in monhun lol

#

Yeah, I agree with that

#

That kind of thinking is trivial

woven apex
#

That's why forcing a player to change tactics by manipulating the environment would be better imo

outer spear
#

Kinda like endgame terraria

#

Oh, you’re talking about that

#

By “testing patterns”

#

I mean

#

“Testing the patterns of the challenge”

void spade
#

idk my experience in MHW was mostly attack-dodge-attack-dodge I feel. But I didn't get super duper far into the game

tame sparrow
#

OKAY, whooooo wants.... Sniper Elite 3?

void spade
#

already have it

outer spear
#

Not “I’m testing patterns of actions to brute force the challenge”

golden ivy
#

sure fuck it gimme vad please

tame sparrow
#

I know you already have it lol this os for non budlers

void spade
#

but I did try to experiment more and I kinda learned that different weapons were a lot more fun to use and experiment with than others

tame sparrow
#

MEat are you gonna play it?

woven apex
#

You can't get Vad, but maybe you could get Sniper Elite 3, Vad is reserved already

outer spear
#

It’s all about creating an experience, and monhun can deliver it.

woven apex
#

Problem with constantly forcing players to use certain things is that they won't expiriment either

#

Just look up a guide

outer spear
#

But monhun never forces players to use anything

tame sparrow
#

Well I wish I had refunded monster hunter world the day I bought it instead of giving it several more chances and running out of time to do so. Could have bought a game I enjoyed with that money

void spade
#

Yeah I just think I was expecting a different kind of game from Monster Hunter

outer spear
#

And guides won’t help in mon him

#

That’s understandable static

tame sparrow
#

@golden ivy are you gonna play it?

void spade
#

I wonder if Sniper Elite 3 is better than 2

#

I played 2 and it was kinda shit

#

imo at least

outer spear
#

If any one of the 4 components falls king, then there is no engaging experience

woven apex
#

I believe a perfect game might be a paradox

#

So many different playstyles and players

tame sparrow
#

PErfect games exist

outer spear
#

Well that’s just humanity for you, humanity in itself is a paradox

golden ivy
#

yeah probably

outer spear
#

Any game or experience is just an imitation of humanity, so an ideal game would be paradoxical

woven apex
#

Some games are very good and very popular like Minecraft or Terraria but even they have their flaws

golden ivy
#

Oh yeah ofc but don't discuss 'em because it sounds stupid

outer spear
#

“You play it for enjoyment, but you have to put in effort for it to meaningful”

woven apex
#

That's a good one

outer spear
#

You put effort into work, not for things like enjoyment

#

That’s a paradox

woven apex
#

Wanting to put effort into a game already makes it a lot better

outer spear
#

That’s why I mentioned the four components of an engaging experience. That’s how you get people to want to put effort into something

#

That’s how you get people to put effort into overcoming a challenge

#

To do work

woven apex
#

If you don't really like the game or dislike having to work for some stuff it may be best to not play it for enjoyment

golden ivy
outer spear
#

You don’t get people to build a boat by telling them to build a boat

#

To get people to build a boat by getting them to love the sea

tame sparrow
#

You're still wrong, perfect games exist! For instance, anyone who doesn't enjoy the original Tetris cartridge for Gameboy is not human and should be burned at the stake.

void spade
#

Tetris is a gift from God

woven apex
#

Or to force them by flooding the world, I think you could guess which one gives more joy

tame sparrow
#

lmao "Disk space available 0MB"

outer spear
#

Well, then we aren’t talking about a want, now we’re talking about need management

#

Same rules apply lol

blissful raven
#

you guys should play "getting over it"

woven apex
#

So conclusion is that a game might be perfect in one's point of view but might suck in someone else's

outer spear
#

I have and it’s great piece on “experience”

#

Horrible gameplay though

golden ivy
