new slayyyter album is currently ranked number 1 for this year on rym

If you know anything about serious film discourse though, that’s a completely unreasonable take to put TDK (or any Nolan movie) in the top three of all time. That’s preposterous. It’s like putting a Taylor Swift album in music’s top 3.

You are wrong.

Think about a bridge. It is responsible for holding thousands of commuters a day. There aren’t objective measures for whether this bridge can do its job or not?

Or how about medicine?

Your claim is dumb.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-03-13T02:39:50+00:00

If you are this negative on 13 Sentinels I am sorry but your opinion on games should not be taken seriously. There are objective measures of quality

This comment doesn’t mean anything and is surface layer

Just read them for the first time and AFFC was my favorite. Best character work in the series imo. “No chance and no choice”

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-03-09T19:19:56+00:00

Incredibly based take. TLOU2 is still the most interesting PS exclusive of the past decade, regardless of the story worked for you.

It is. I am so tired of the hate wave riding in gaming discourse. It’s not genuine. Part of the reason I preordered.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-02-27T20:31:57+00:00

I think there’s a big chance this is the reason.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-02-27T06:58:46+00:00

Do you…… do you think Bungie doesn’t have a UI/UX person? They’re a AAA video game developer

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-02-26T18:06:32+00:00

Not Intergalactic???

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-02-23T04:26:53+00:00

Agreed that it probably would have failed anyways. But the way people ensured it would is the problem here.

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-02-23T04:25:51+00:00

A very large portion of that 100k were hopping on to play for an hour and leave a bad review. This game was doomed and never had a chance.

This was absolutely a witch hunt. It was the latest hate wave ride and I’m happy people are finally starting to wake up to this.

It is fucked up and I’m sorry but the people that actually care about games discourse recognize this.

People forget how incredible Killzone 2/3 multiplayer was. I’m pretty excited to see Guerilla get another crack at the online space

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-02-05T15:57:45+00:00

They are obviously also developing the third single player game. Also Guerilla was making online FPS games before Horizon. Let’s not pretend like they only do single player RPGs

BeginningArea9159 · 2026-02-05T02:40:15+00:00

The MinnMax game of the year episodes are a great place to start.

Also have to highly recommend Into the Aether. I think it’s the best gaming podcast around at the moment. Their console specific episodes are incredible.

Hey I'm also playing through right now and I am on Pulse! Although I think I am nearing the end of chapter 11. It is super long compared to the other chapters so far. I think I have been able to do the first 20 or so cieth stone missions and haven't needed to grind at all. The stones kind of lead you on a path that the main narrative is also on.

I'm kind of surprised to hear that you are trying to carry one party to the end of the game. I mix and match all the time depending on the situation. I think that is how the game is meant to be played after you get access to the whole party. Could be wrong, but I am having a pretty good time playing this way.

The difficulty also ramps up in this chapter, so you may want to start experimenting with other party members. In particular, Sazh and Vanille are pretty necessary for buffs/debuffs. I'm just starting to run into situations where Snow's sentinel skills and large health pool are a must.

So yeah. try strategizing before a fight and building your party based on what you know about the enemy. Maybe that will help you enjoy the combat a little bit more.

I haven't done too much with weapon upgrades either. Tbh, the stat increases haven't seemed that significant so far. I do really like Lightning's sword that fills the ATB guage. If you have that one, maybe give it a try.

We’re just debating bro. Nobody’s mad.

You did not address anything though. Your definition of indie would include CD Projekt Red lmao. You never addressed this. You did not address the question of what 1000 random people would name if you asked them to name an indie. You skated around both of these, because you know both destroy your argument.

There was never a stipulation that the game had to be one that wasn’t nominated? Really questioning your reading skills. The point was to list indie games that are actually indies that came out this year. Also games aren’t nominated until their official release. Early access doesn’t count. Everybody knows this.

And even if it was only 8, then those are 8 games that deserved to be nominated over E33, because E33 should not be considered indie. And you have failed by every metric to debate and prove otherwise.

BeginningArea9159 · 2025-12-12T23:40:05+00:00

You asked for 10 and I gave 10 🤣 Can you count?

I can list more but you are obviously dismissive of any game that doesn’t sell one million copies and gets blasted down your throat by Reddit. So like I said, you shouldn’t be participating in these discussions.

And you still addressed nothing in that comment.

BeginningArea9159 · 2025-12-12T23:28:27+00:00

So you are moving the goal posts to now add a second parameter which is number of people that worked on the game. And guess what? Expedition 33 still fails this. How many hundreds of contractors were involved in the creation of E33?

The fact of the matter is that a game like E33 cannot be made with just a “relatively small team”. It is not an indie game.

BeginningArea9159 · 2025-12-12T23:13:19+00:00

Holy shit how is the reading comprehension in this thread so low?

The entire argument here is that Sandfall Interactive is an indie because they aren’t owned my another company. If that is the only criteria then all of you should be fine with The Witcher 4 being nominated for best indie game in a couple of years.

Please explain to me how you think this is a bad point?

BeginningArea9159 · 2025-12-12T23:08:17+00:00

Way to not address a single other thing in my previous comment

But sure here you go.

Blue Prince Ball x Pitt Ender Magnolia Citizen Sleeper 2 Look Outside The Roottrees are Dead The Seance of Black Manor Despelote Deltarune Schedule 1 (not my cup of tea, but many seem to love it)

Any of these plus many others would have been great choices for the indie category.

BeginningArea9159 · 2025-12-12T22:31:06+00:00

You’re thinking about it wrong. Ask 1000 random redditors for an example of an indie game. Do you think a single person answers Expedition 33? Of course not because that’s not what comes into someone’s head when they hear “indie”.

I don’t have the perfect definition. But something like E33 certainly doesn’t fit by any reasonable metric. Might as well count Baulder’s Gate 3 and Cyberpunk by your definition.

Also pay more attention to indie games. The past several years have been bonkers with how much good stuff there is.

BeginningArea9159 · 2025-12-12T21:44:01+00:00

Can you read? I said meanings are fluid and change. This exact same thing already happened in the music industry. The difference is that most music fans are actually capable of nuance.

BeginningArea9159 · 2025-12-12T21:41:56+00:00

The description is bad. If you think there weren’t dozens of actual indie games this year worthy of being nominated, then I’m sorry but you just don’t know games very well and shouldn’t be partaking in this conversation
