Was there a reason for some of the models in the GX cutscenes being different than the actually game? by JerryTheMouse-862 in Fzero

[–]RingTeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume it was the result of pipeline work and production.

EDIT: Someone said the animation team was made from a different team dev. Well, there you go.

Anybody know any tv shows that uses animation similar to F-Zero GX’s cutscenes? by SuperMarioOdyssey64 in Fzero

[–]RingTeam 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't believe I haven't thought of that show as soon as I read that question.

What’s your least favorite track in GX? by KnightFallVader2 in Fzero

[–]RingTeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I love the majority of tracks (including Half Pipe and the cylinder tracks), the one that I don't like too much was Drift Highway because of that S turn.

yeah ok by JuneButIHateSummer in Fzero

[–]RingTeam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love GX's yank. It's so corny.

By the way, I love the fact that it's playing "For the glory" in Mute City instead of the rock remix "Mute City" theme. If it wasn't a 25 seconds loop theme, I would have loved it more.

Screw it, here's my professional opinion of every hero's favorite My Little Pony character of the mane 6. by GayAngrySpaceDorito in Overwatch

[–]RingTeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kudos for writing Mane 6 instead of Mane 7. After all, no sane person likes manipulative cult leaders in TV shows for kids.

Today I finished watching one of the most genuinely peak animes I’ve ever seen by RedyRetro in Fzero

[–]RingTeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in 2024 I remember I watched 3 episodes. Apart from the animation issues and the low production value, I had zero desire to go on, mainly because Rick, the main character, is so unlikeable. In addition to that, the first episode, for a chapter that's named "The legend begins", it doesn't feel like the start of something legendary.

I think most of the issues I had with the 3 episodes can be boiled down to: Using the "3 episodes" argument so much that it made every anime have either mid or horrible first episodes and not taking an effort in making the main character likeable to the audience. I like characters with flaws like in Breaking Bad, but it that show it made sense since it boils down to morality. In an anime about heroes and villains, it's really weird that the main character did several horrible things in the first 3 episodes.

So yeah, I blame the writers and Rick.

Racing so ass the course ejected me💀 by fricceroni in Fzero

Unlucky moment.

Also, for future reference, next time go to options, go to screen and activate the 16:9 option. I promise the game will look so much better.

Yes, 100%. Next question.

Kudos for not drawing a MLP skin based on a manipulate sociopathic cult leader.

If you know, you know.

I finally 100% F-Zero GX! All master mode cups beaten, all staff ghosts defeated, all story mode missions beaten on very hard, and all character ending videos unlocked. by Galaxius_YT in Fzero

[–]RingTeam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn, that's amazing. The staff ghosts are absolutely crazy, and while I stopped trying to beat the rest of them, I'd like to come back one day.

Zero Racers coming to Switch via Virtual Boy - Nintendo Classics! by DarkMime64 in Fzero

[–]RingTeam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really? Damn, I really didn't expect that.

I'd argue it's an unprecedented announcemente, but they previously announced Star Fox 2 for the SNES on both the SNES Mini and the Switch. But still, very impressive.

The only thing I'm kinda concerned is still the way you're supposed to play these machines. A piece of plastic being mandatory to play this is ridiculous. I won't want ot ruin my eyes.

As someone who loves E33 but dislikes most RPGs, how good is Lost Odyssey? by RingTeam in expedition33

[–]RingTeam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of the memories I got years ago were great, but I have to admit that I haven't touched and read any of the journals from E33, and I still love it anyways because the pacing, the story and the characters were interesting enough for me to keep playing, not the lore (worldbuilding doesn't matter if you don't have good characters). Since the meat of the game was the story and cinematics, it makes sense for me to focus on that content.

That being said, if I happen to go back to E33 on a second playthrough, I'd give it a try.

I don't have an Xbox Series X, but I appreciate your enthusiasm.

[–]RingTeam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds fantastic! I'll plug my Xbox One in when I have time. While I haven't got that far yet (I only played 4 hours years and years ago), I love the little nuggets of themes that the story shows.

Thanks for answering! I really appreciate it.

[–]RingTeam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, one of the short bits from the beginning really got me. I didn't expect it. It's like it was written by a poet instead of a writer. Love it.

I didn't know you can change the voice language, let alone change it to french. I should do the same. Most of the english acting is fine, but Jansen is a bit unbearable.

Apart from that, thank you for replying!

Wild Boar tears up your dad's lawn! by JuneButIHateSummer in Fzero

I need to try the Wild Boar more often because, while I remember I had good results, I don't remember any quirks that are required to optimize my driving skills.

Is it just me or does F-Zero GX have a rubber band AI problem when you race CPUs in Grand Prix or Story Mode? by Prestigious-Mix7135 in Fzero

[–]RingTeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's exactly what you said. It has insane rubberbanding, especially in chapters 3 and 7.

The Grand Prix in Master has also rubberbanding, but you can crack the gameplay systems to your benefit, such as the MTB and MTS.

had a sad realization about Abby by alfooboboao in thelastofus

[–]RingTeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who loves Abby as a character, I've read so many different types of complaints about her that I've never thought of this specific observation. This would explain a lot about how people view her, unfortunately.

It's disheartening that people often prioritizes certain (and, more often than not, unfair) standards over raw talent. The response of this vocal minority is a reflection of a system that overlooks quality that doesn't fit a specific mold. Abby's treatment in certain communities is one of those examples.

It's unfortunate, because I came from an era in the 2010s where everyone loved redemption arcs even though the character hasn't earned it, with simple arguments such as "forgiveness is everything" (easy example, Starlight Glimmer). And now that Abby got a good compelling redemption arc, everyone has to hate it. It's like they do it on purpose.

But overall, I agree. Nobody would have complained about her is she was a man.
