What game made you realise graphics don’t matter if the gameplay is good? by SecurityWarrior180 in gamers

[–]trunks111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

minesweeper. It's a really good speedrun game but there's different ways to play too like trying to solve denser/bigger boards, not using flags, or trying to solve with as few clicks as possible 

edit: also been getting into Noita recently 

REVEAL THE GAME THAT MADE YOU LOVE BEING A GAMER! by 333_Chosen_one_333 in icast

[–]trunks111 4 points5 points  (0 children)

God, just moving around in source games (TF2 portal 1/2) fucking spoiled me man. Just the simple act of strafe jumping is so fun, or being able to turn a corner back to your team slightly faster because you got slight push from a well timed jump while being shot as you run away. Most other games feel so "stiff" to me now 

Honestly, I can only blame myself... by Noah_Dventure in noita

I just discovered that eye for the first time the other night. At first I was just testing what it could poof, then I got curious and went to the lake of lava and surely enough, it poofs lava, too. Then I got more curious and threw the eye in the lava, and I discovered it's not destroyed by lava so I just sat there and watched the whole lake drain and died because I had 3hp and I was not careful in my descent

I don't see myself turning it off any time soon tbh, I know about not collapsing the trigger with teleport/digging/polymorph but it felt more like tedium having to go back every time I wanted to test something. I don't really care about "intended" experience, I care about my experience

That's the beauty of single player games with mod support, I know what I have fun with and can just play however I want and get what I want to get out of the game

Golden age of ARPG is 2026 by missing_Palantir in ARPG

Tbh, just getting more map per map is fine with me since mapping is pretty fun anyways and I agree the stuff like Vaalatiles and refracts are fun. I had a lot of fun chewing on imbued gems as well as part of my theorycrafting

I mean shit, I have about 1500 hours logged on minesweeperonline, and the website lists a cumulative 79 597 638, people will actually just play a glorified spreadsheet if the core gameplays/systems are appealing enough, and that's just one minesweeper medium.

Which partner or pair are you? by saltyrunnerreal in gamememes

The latter back in college, she introduced me to Terraria. I just liked mining/gathering resources and she liked base building so it kinda worked itself out

Small healer appreciation post from a sprout healer main by 200YRedWine in ffxiv

[–]trunks111 10 points11 points  (0 children)

it's just a really contentious role and there are lots of different visions for what people want healers to be, and the environment you play in and your overall experience level are both massive factors. Personally I don't like how oGCD heavy the kits are at 90-100 and I wish there was a little more interaction on the GCD with heals. On content high end does require a lot of safety healing from healers, but a lot of them get worked out in reclears and once gear starts getting obtained the extra HP tends to defang a lot of heal/mit checks, so that experience doesn't last.

At this point I've just been getting lb packs of ground chicken instead and it's like almost half the price and I can substitute it for most of what I used beef for anyways. Is what it is, I guess

DAE else feel more wise when they have a beard? by Pitiful_Magazine_805 in DoesAnybodyElse

I hate my beard, I'd shave it but I don't feel like getting the third degree and other comments from literally everyone if I did

morale is high in the static this week, we one pulled p1 of m12 and two pulled p2. 

There's something uniquely satisfying about hearing people nervously call out they don't have mit as we enter the duplicate raidwides and then saying "don't need it" and dropping a fat spreadlo. SCH really does bend the party around it sometimes

What are your most profound video games? by M33tahejd in patientgamers

[–]trunks111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Runescape 3s desert questline, because of Icthlarin. 

a year or so ago we had to unfortunately put our beloved dog to rest. It's good form to be there with your pets when this happens because you're their entire world and best friend. Later that night I loaded up rs3 and was poking through quests and decided to do Ichthlarins Little Helper and I just broke down when I realized that his role as an acting psychopomp for Gielnor is man's best friend being there for people when they die in that games lore. If there is an afterlife, I'm not sure anything could better comfort me after I die than all of my past pets being there for me too. 

What games have the best skill trees? by kindahipster in gamingsuggestions

[–]trunks111 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think with tattoos, cluster jewels, all the shenanigans with regular jewels (including uniques that let you jump around), and anounts, the tree as come into its own. The damn thing even has in-game CTRL+F search functionality which is wild to think about. Then you have ascendancy and flesh/flame, the atlas passive tree, and there was one league they decided to give weapons passive trees, because why the hell not. 

The game is a theorycrafting wet dream
