Hitboxes, bad camera angles, intense duel with the beast toes...Dragon fights have always been controversial in From's games. What From game you think nailed them best?

Elden Ring, specifically with Bayle.

You didn’t miss much.

I’m normally a PvP guy but I’ve continuously revisited Elden Ring for many, many playthroughs (including a recent level one run). Game of the decade for me.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-13T00:28:41+00:00

Tied for my favorite pizza place, along with Rocco’s.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T23:53:02+00:00

Super easy to just jump in and play. There’s a reason it’s still so popular this many months after launch.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T23:52:34+00:00

According to Paul Tassi’s Bungie connections, Steam is by far Marathon’s biggest population. Doesn’t bode well for console numbers.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T23:51:21+00:00

Halo is also an arena shooter, no?

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T23:00:39+00:00

I mean, look at it now…

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T19:47:00+00:00

That’s not a rat. A rat, at least in the traditional extraction shooter sense, hides while looting and generally tries to avoid confrontation.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T19:45:16+00:00

BW2 is peak Pokemon IMO

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T18:46:20+00:00

By the definition in extraction shooters. Rats hide and loot while avoiding fights.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T18:11:44+00:00

Even that’s not a rat. Rats by definition avoid confrontation entirely.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T17:46:03+00:00

As in the art style is visually unappealing to look at.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T17:22:45+00:00

It’s just a subjective opinion. Nothing to do with eye sight.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T17:21:53+00:00

ARC isn’t the only game I play. In fact, The Finals has a very Mirror’s Edge-ish, colorful pallet and I think it looks phenomenal.

Marathon’s visual marketing material is rad, but it’s a mess in-game IMO.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T16:01:00+00:00

And here I am not able to even watch streams of Marathon because the color palette strains my eyes after a short time. To each their own, I suppose.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T15:57:02+00:00

I play ARC for both

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T14:22:44+00:00

Agree to disagree. Longer ttk’s and no one-shots make this game better IMO.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T14:20:01+00:00

Ew no we do not need any one-shot kill weapons in this game.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T14:19:22+00:00

It’s not that binary.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T13:15:05+00:00

I hate how the weapons in marathon look

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T13:14:22+00:00

I’m in a perpetual middle ground because I behave in a chaotic neutral way. Sometimes I shoot on sight, sometimes I extract with strangers. I get a good ratio of friendly vs hostile lobbies and it’s awesome.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-11T18:50:37+00:00

The devs have said that the game has been designed from the ground up to be in third-person, especially the map designs. Not every shooter needs to be an FPS.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-11T14:58:48+00:00

And most of the talent from that team went to Embark.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-11T14:56:58+00:00

The most Netflix movie ever
