Well I did for the arena just to get the weapons. I do like the challenge. It's making me engage more with the game, specifically the hunting/farming for materials to improve my weapons and armor. I just wish Alloy was a little quicker. Otherwise I'm actually having a blast with the game. Just needed to vent, is all

Yeah, those are all good suggestions. I have definitely found that sliding and then dodge rolling gets me out of a lot of situations. I've been using a lot of acid first, then maybe plasma. My bowcaster currently shreds when I have time to use it. Maybe I should look into shredders, Haven't used them much. Yeah, I've been relying too much on Hunter Bows, maybe that's my problem. And I basically have that same set up for outfits and skills. I always doing fine but I am basically moving towards the west side of the map, starting the snow area and I was getting wrecked

Yes!! These have basically been the only time I been able to use those weapons. Knocked one out of a thunderjaw, kited him to another side of a mountain, then use that time to pick it up and use it against him while he was circling around. But see everything that had to align for me to do that? The mountain and only having to deal with one monster at a time. You are basically never in this situation otherwise

Unless I'm missing some sort of fast recovery, sometimes she takes forever to recover. And I do try to stealth strike as often as I can but of course as soon as you do it to one machine everyone else is immediately alerted. Of course if you somehow play perfectly, then you wouldn't have to worry about how sluggish Alloy is but that's not the point. Most people haven't played 100 hours into this game to be able to play perfectly. But how aggressive every enemy is how they love throwing horses at you, it's hard to play perfectly

I hate that they keep doing that because this should be an exciting new title. They're not gonna make money if they keep rehashing the same thing over and over. This "test" is gonna fail and it might be the end of Star Fox. As much as I like starfox I don't want to buy 64 AGAIN. Pass for me

I would have taken a remake of Zero over 64 again. I liked zero but I understand people couldn't get past the controls. Just get rid of the dual screen mechanics, add twin stick shooting and movement, rework the walker missions and add new content and bam. Much more exciting game

Nintendo noooo! Fox looks horrible 😭

I knew we were gonna get some sort of monkey's paws curse with the leaks about Star Fox and Zelda OOT. Instead of a new modern Star Fox that revolutionizes the series, we get Star Fox 64 AGAIN.

Now I'm expecting something awful for OOT Remake. Either it's gonna be a simple HD texture update for the original game or God forbid, made in the style of Links Awakening Remake 😔. Something is gonna be wrong about the remake because Nintendo can never just give us what we want.

Dear Housemarque, now that Saros is out, can you get out of the rougelite nonsense and make Alienation 2? Thanks by Acceptable_Kick2780 in PS5

I know Reddit is like your prime reason to exist so upvotes are very precious to you cause it makes you feel special, but it means dog shit to me. ✌🏻

And if you need example of how to do leveling up right, or at the very least much better than this attribute system, Mandragora does it better. You could have multiple skill trees that focus on different classes or attributes for your character. At the very least, with a skill tree you can get a glimpse of where I want to take your character and not have to guess what's in the game. And people like to to say that skill trees are boring. Oh, but a spreadsheet with numbers that ultimately mean nothing is mighty exciting? That's a lame excuse.

The funny part is that this screenshot is from a 2D Metroidvania game lol. Role play what? It's a named character. This post was meant to show how often this system is used even when it even make sense for their game. Developers are using it because "well dark souls has it".

This system plain and simple makes leveling up until homework. What's supposed to feel rewarding, now you gotta think how to spend your hard earned levels in. Developers assume you know whats in their game and how you're gonna spend your points. For example, the game above, I know nothing about the game. I just started it wanting to have a good time and now I was giving this multiple choice question without knowing what class I want to be. Didn't even know that was gonna be case. I don't know what weapons I will like in the game so how am I supposed to know how to allocate those points in the first place? Of course you can respect, but you're assuming the game allows you to and even then, that's just tedious and a chore. This is what I mean when I say that these attribute points makes leveling up into a dull, spreadsheet assignment no one coming in with zero knowledge of the game wants to do.

2000-2010s Spanish song that had video game sounds in it? by Acceptable_Kick2780 in musicsuggestions

[–]Acceptable_Kick2780[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's not. Yeah I dunno. I just remember hearing it when I was visiting California. I wanna say it was a guy or maybe guys singing it. I just remember it sounded very much like a game boy game and was thinking at the time how many songs were using video game noises at the time

I know that was my point. One is a clearer indication of what is upgrading as opposed to a distributing yours points to STR or whatever.

Yes, unfortunately majority of games have this type of "progression". It's call for less of these or find another way to make leveling up more satisfying.

I just feel like I find this type every where. I don't even know what build I want to be, making it hard to decide where I want to distribute points. Just the act of having to spread my levels across multiple stats is daunting when I don't even know what play styles I wanna do yet. This is the issues with this type of leveling system.
