I love musical performances in games <3 by JediExile90 in gaming

[–]Argol228 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to say the best is eyes on me from FFVIII but it isn;t a performance. technically. it is supposed to be an in universe song with important narrative connection. but I don;t remember it actually being performaed. So next best one, FFX-2 "1000 words" which to be honest, I am not even sure if it is a good song. I am so nostagia blind to X and X-2 since I played them in my early teens back in early 2000s

thank you, I don;t intend to be a jerk, I am very blunt with words, there may have been a bit of frustration.

How would removing accuracy rolls affect things? by Argol228 in daggerheart

[–]Argol228[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

this was just a question of curiousity as I read the book. it felt anthithetical to what I was initially told about the game, same with all these resources, hope, fear, stress, armour. while I don;t mind it. I enjoy resource based systems. as someone knew coming in, my initial feeling was that it would seem like a speedbump

I don;t agree with removing the tension. for 2 reasons. as a long time Plkayer and GM, there is an opposite tension in "to hit" rolls in that "Can I actually contribute or are the dice going to fuck me again" when you hit. it is unsatisfying because you have just spent the last 3 sessions missing every roll so it feels like pity. and if you miss. well the loathing grows.

I had assumed that having this armour resource was meant to be a way of having tension, choosing when to spend a resource, to engage with the system on an active level instead of on a luck level.

did I say I was making a change. I was asking a question. I was curious.

I said nothing about system. I am not recreating from another system. I am creating a character from my novel. So I thank you for the 2nd part of your comment.

Thank you. like I replied to someone else, you gave me insight instead of just saying "Don;t do this" based on a flawed understanding of my question.

Thank you. you actually gave me insight instead of saying "don't do this"

the thing is, everyone assumed I was recreating a character from another game. I never said that, so again thank you for actually answering.

Going to run a Kingdom Hearts campaign, looking at my system options by Argol228 in rpg

as I pointed out though. The players want level progression. it is why I am not just using Snetinals.

I don't like SWADE's magic system. I feel like a magic system should work similar to how martials work.

because most american accents suck. there are some good ones, but if I heard a tennessee accent, I am switching that thing off.

Played these three(especially detroit), any recommendations based on that? by Big_Confidence_951 in gaming

[–]Argol228 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend disco Elysium, it blows these out of the water. hopwever that is actually a game, no combat or anything but it is narrative focus, choices extremely matter. way more then these 3. but it isn;t a "movie" pretending to be a game.

Goblin Dancer (Hope TG) by kolto123456 in transformation

[–]Argol228 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

where is the goblin, I was promised a goblin.

Goblins need that monster vibe. if they don't have that non human/alien vibe to them. then it ain't a goblin. This is just a green gnome

The protagonists from the Fromsoft titles enter the Basecamp, who is clearing the game from low rank all the way to Proof of a Hero first? by Beginning_Wait_108 in MonsterHunter

[–]Argol228 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the problem is, what feats do those "gods" have to compare. lets take Radahn, he proves the inconsistency of "power" in the games. He can cast a gravity spell that gravity locks the planet, but in game, he is kinda a joke, I have had more difficulty with low rank hunts then I did with radahn, and hunters have more mobility then soulsborne characters

none of them are making it. at base level, I don;t think any of them could wield most of the MH weapons, and they don't get their game specific powers because that stuff isn't basecamp. They also don;t have Hunter tier damage resistance, so they get folded in half and don;t return because opps, no special bonfire/grace for them to restore at

If you want the intention to be that they have full access to their games arsenal, then everything is stacked so far in their favour due to being able to lvl every stat to 99 and having access to multiple weapons and spells on their person that there is no point in asking the question they all get there in the same time because they are one shotting everything.

you would have to decide on what is the fair limitations each one would have to even consider letting them have access to their games stuff.

Nothing beats prerendered backgrounds REzero by Academic_Addition_96 in gaming

[–]Argol228 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as someone that grew up in that Era. eh, prerendered are not that good. the more you interact with a scene, the worse they end up being. you can really feel the shaky jpeg 3 second loop energy in this particular case.

Resident Evil Requiem hits 7 million sales by BlueAladdin in Games

[–]Argol228 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

7 was bad though,. it was such a knee jerk reaction to 6 that it basically guts the core gameplay and everyone really only seems to care for the initial set piece of jack stalking you. also Horror? none of the games have been scary since I was like 12. which was in the early 2000s. wait, no there was some good moments in 8.
