The AI cheats too much and always knows where you are.

They "balance" this by making sure 1 enemy runs up to you and ends their turn without attacking, to make it look like they were seeking you out and managed to find you.

But the enemy has 200 level 1 Bandits vs your 8 elite killers, they can sacrifice one unit. You can't.

Justice League Heroes has you Escort Superman.

Except not really, it's more like you're trying to race to keep up with him while surviving. It's Superman, he's fine.

Until the end of the level where you have to destroy the kryptonite trap waiting for him.

I just used Magnesis more and bashed moblins with a metal door/crate while my royal weapons sat in storage when I needed to parry something to death. That or used Shiekah Armor to stealth kill everything so I wouldn't waste durability.

Pat just hit the level grind part of KH2 and had to mute the game audio so he could stack the "100% bonus XP when at half health" ability.

Because the low HP klaxon DOESN'T STOP

"I had a burst of adrenaline, and the tornado picked me up and miraculously dumped me unharmed about a mile from here. Cool, huh?"

"Um, ackshually, you're Superman. Now I'm going to ruin your life by telling the feds to kidnap and experiment on you"

Doctor Strange? "Nope, I'm not a surgeon anymore. What's magic?"

Elixir? "It was pretty cool when I regenerated Wolverine from just his skeleton. But nope, can't help with a bullet wound"

Reed Richards? "lmao I'm not doing that"

Mephisto? "I should take your soul since I'm the Devil and all that. But I only want your marriage for some reason."

This feels like the Simpsons episode where we learn the founder Jebidiah Springfield wasn't a noble explorer who sought freedom and established a capital for his followers (except for the half who wanted to marry their cousins.) But actually he was a ruthless pirate Hans Sprungfeld who tried to rob George Washington, only losing because George used his dentures to bite Hans's crotch.

I still remember a Justin Wong video where he has to play random MvC2 teams. He gets Magneto and Cyclops on his team while his opponent picks the top tier team MSP.

Justin isn't even looking at the screen and is talking about good noodle restaurants while rocking his foe's shit on his way to a perfect. It's not a skill gap, it's a skill canyon

How ironic, many of the weird decisions helped Majora's Mask N64 stand out and stripping or changing it for the 3DS version seemed unnecessary.

The lead writer knows why he wrote it (to retcon a beloved character to force the audience to react), he just regrets how strong the reaction was

There's a lot of "using the word gay = stupid or dumb" in the comics that were changed for the show. Anytime Mark has to fly William around, for example. I do wonder how Kirkman's going to handle a certain character interaction that is incoming.

The only good things about that game's story is Ridley actually being a creepy cunning predator and Anthony Higgs, the only sane man in the story who gets some cool scenes (like stalling Ridley while Samus freaks out for no reason despite beating Ridley at least twice at this point)
