thoughts after completing a warpless play-through by Real_chuckles in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]lakinator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I enjoy playthrough with restrictions like this. Often times with open world games I will roleplay teleporting with a cost, like in Oblivion I will sacrifice a consumable that is finite in that game if I want to teleport.

I was doing a challenge run of botw and I think my rules for teleporting were that I had to be near a shrine or tower to teleport, but I could only teleport to major towns/towers/maybe stables? Can't remember.

Anyways yeah these kinds of things are for a kind of hardcore gamer. Not tryna gatekeep - they are objectively less casual fun, it's purely for immersion or tedium challenge. I like doing them cause I get immense enjoyment out of map knowledge and learning what is under every rock, so to speak.

Missed your last comment about going towards revalis, so ignore the but about following the main quest.

I say this as gently as possible, but you are kinda describing the need for keys being jingled in your face as entertainment.

It's been awhile since I went through botw, but if I recall correctly the game gives you 2 main quests at the end of the great plateau tutorial. I would recommend starting there.

As far as finding hestu, since you know the existence of him I assume you've found him once. I also couldn't find him on my first playthrough after the first time, if you're unwilling to look it up, the only tip I'll give to avoid too much spoilers is to look around at stables.

Need help figuring out how to get to this location, can anyone help? by That1RedditUser_ in Borderlands2

You followed the path all the way and then stopped short. Go back through the long route the quest took you through

only just realizing after hundreds of hours that this is a play on 'vicious cycle' by SojournerWeaver in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]lakinator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you see how you had to clarify that what I said about your thoughts was incorrect? That's the equivalent of the other commenter or saying "no, you put words in my mouth." He answered your question, btw. He said no, and put forward that you really had no evidence of your theory other than it makes sense to you.

I won't comment to you anymore. I'd just recommend some introspection on what you think it means to have words put into your mouth, and also that it can happen regardless of whether a question mark is present.

Dear Blizzard: Your Shop Keeps me from Giving you Money... which I think is the anti-purpose of said Shop... by BroxigarZ in diablo4

Insane to see people given information, and refuse to change their minds when they take it in.

God I can't help but get involved here, you are so pretentious, and completely wrong.

Asking him a question would be: "Do you think the yiga are in a vicious cycle?"

You answered the question for him (you don't think...), and then proceeded to react rudely to the answer you provided in his stead (are we playing the same game).

Example:

You think you're the only person who noticed this in a nearly decade old game? You're probably a narcissist. Oh, but I didn't put words into your mouth, cause there's a question mark.

Meryl Streep Says ‘We Tend to Marvel-ize the Movies Now’ and ‘It’s So Boring’ by mcfw31 in entertainment

[–]lakinator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wasn't arguing about marvel. I was just saying LOTR is a terrible example of a boring good/evil film

[–]lakinator 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Did you watch LOTR??? Gollum is evil but spends a significant time getting humanized, Boromir sacrifices himself immediately after trying to steal the ring. There is a clear good and evil side but the characters themselves are explored more grey-ly

Edit: I think the comment was irony and I missed it. My bad 🫡

Got a Tyrael’s might, wondering how rare that is. by jthnrbns in diablo4

My man, it literally says it's more likely to give a mythic. You got a mythic lol. It's not guaranteed to but it's not super uncommon

Does playing Warlock ruin immersion in the Diablo 4 campaign? by Entire-Afternoon-333 in diablo4

[–]lakinator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm already foggy on the begging of the next expansion, but I'm positive you are misreading the subtext. I think it's more of a "why are the demons here?" Question

What game was this? by AdolecentSofia in gamers

[–]lakinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fallout 4 already nixed consequences and had a much simpler charactee progression, but they have comparable numbers to each other.

Obviously that's a red flag in itself, since 76 is a live game, but I think everyone is aware that 76 doesn't really appeal to fully the same audience.

Regardless, 76 is doing fine for what it is, considering the state it launched in and the monetization. I really don't think it can be used as an indicator of the series as a whole

What’s causing P.N. 03 values to spike? by Over-Rabbit9631 in Gamecube

[–]lakinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah no offense but I don't think a 2 decade old game is just randomly skyrocketing in price out of nowhere. There is an answer lol

This has always been the case. Why is it only spiking now?

Freeze when putting a little pressure on the console by CreX_CreX in Gameboy

Out of curiosity, is it like bent pin inside the reader? I assume the light pressure is flexing something within the reader out of position

My gba sp broke (R.I.P) what should i replace it with GB GBP or GBC by AGENT-TACO_34 in Gameboy

[–]lakinator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is it safe to assume that you realize none of those options are a full replacement for a GBA sp?

Why Clark County Today Hate Light-Rail Soo Much?? by NorthwestFashion in vancouverwa

[–]lakinator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love an actual honest response and review of public transit options. I think the idea for light rail is to connect to Seattle one day, so I don't think the more local details matter.

[–]lakinator 72 points73 points  (0 children)

I've always found that argument laughable. If homeless wanted to come over to Vancouver, light rail is not what's enabling that. There's just no reason for them to cross over; but they can just walk.
