moves with good frames has range/damage limitations, similar to how priority moves in pokemon are usually set up or low damage moves.
i guess the strategy layers are similar between games
twin yarrow
Oh
polar dragon
like a slower pokemon can beat a faster pokemon if they have better priority
like how a jab can have frame advantage on block
the trade off is damage in the pokemon case, or usually range in fgs.
ofc im speaking from someone who watches youtube vids for info and not actually play any fg.

dire condor
I never tried the joycon control sceme but on touch you just tap on the screen till enemy dead its not very interesting
coral hawk
with the twewy port a lot of the trouble comes from them keeping it touch screen as 1) there isn't a stylus for the switch and 2) the switch is too large to hold and use as a touchscreen
and 3) I don't feel like playing skyward sword and swinging wildly like I'm playin a wii
cause all the pin inputs are the same you just do them by waving the joycon

Judging from the screenshots, it kinda irks me a bit with how the text isn’t pixelated as well. Pretty sure that’s not the font they have back in the day

Anyway, these are massive cash/nostalgia grabs.
Squeenix is turning these games into Skyrim.
What these companies should be doing is making sure the games are on effectively timeless platforms, like PC or a [REDACTED] virtual console that lasts longer than one system, Nintendo.
The Switch VC library getting bigger is a great thing!
Making us all buys games for a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th time is incredibly consumer-hostile.
Seriously, we could have got updated ports of the GBA versions, with actually hand-drawn and HD sprites.

copy and paste a rant i had not too long ago
After 40 hours of really trying to get into the game, I think Dead Cells just isn't for me.
My cycle goes like this: 30-40 no hit kill spree -> lose the spree to an off-screen projectile or burrowing enemy
-> lose out on unlocks and equipment -> give up.
I don't outright die and I understand that the bonus equipment probably isn't needed to win. But man the incentive in this game is just not fun, not for me.
It takes the "just don't get hit bro" mentality to another level (and yeah, let's not mention the speedrun gate). I'm out.

I'm not as read as I'd like to be for this discussion, because these are not my games at all, but wasn't MOBA created specifically as an umbrella term for the genre so we'd stop referring to it by a single game?
polar dragon

outer wadi
I think Riot made it
dire condor
How am I supposed to pick a favorite antagonist?
outer wadi
because when they “created” league of legends they were trying to separate themselves from dota
so they made up a genre title
Dont quote me on it tho
polar dragon
well tbh at the time there were many competing titles
the same way we have many BRoyale now
outer wadi
yea most were small but like HoN came out after LoL
stable kindle
Dont quote me on it tho
apparently you're correct
In late 2009, Riot Games' debut title League of Legends was released. It was initially designed by Steve Feak, one of the original creators of DotA Allstars, who went on to apply many of the mechanics and lessons he learned from the mod.[59][60] Riot began to refer to the game's genre as a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA).

Asymmetrical games and gamemodes are something. Like while for sure I think it never will be a balanced experience, it's fun to see these all different games give their take on that.
Callback to fact Dead Space 3 and RE6 having asymmetrical gamemodes.
outer wadi
I was disappointed in Ult’s gameplay. The older characters are at their best feel (except game and watch) but i really dont like a lot of the smash 4/ult ones. The online is straight dog too
polar dragon
another thing to take into consideration is that game price jumped from $50 to $60 was when the xbox and ps3 really kicked off
sony and microsoft both used their consoles as loss leads
which makes sense
dire condor
I intensely disliked the way 4 felt and Ultimate feels very much like the same game, no thanks.

Glad I shared the masterpiece of the video! You def should check out the oboe's channel if you like Borderlands as a series, got some nice videos on it.
dire condor
I'm happysad that video games are getting TV and movie adaptations, because IPs are only then being considered by mainstream media (which like it or not reaches the majority of people) as "legitimate".
Video games are the evolution of entertainment from TV and movies.
outer wadi
No guys
We NEEDED to know what happened
We NEEDED part 2
just like we need TLOU1 remade
dire condor
I would have liked to see a Part 2 that actually addresses the fallout of what Joel did at the end of 1 (not putting it in a cutscene like, during the credits) and then addressing Ellie's feelings per his death.
lusty pendant
from what I heard about TLOU2 it's literally nier replicant but worse
dire condor
I still need to play Replicant.
But the story is an absolute cluster.
Jumps forward and backward in time with almost no rhyme or reason.

Tlou2 story just subverts expectations to be edgy and cool

Remakes or newer cuts of things that make stuff worse is the worst thing
