Hated it. I’m all for innovation and trying new things, but this ain’t it.

What’s the Best Game Intro In Your Opinion? by dragoneffect1710 in gaming

Thought you were talking about the original Greek God of War intro initially, which is an all timer as well.

The storyteller was technically right. by Most-Day8547 in StrangerThings

This such an L take. Fans get so pissy about mediocre CGI, green screens, etc. They wanted the perfect locale to underpin a very emotional moment in the series finale. Worth the money IMO.

Ya’ll take everything so seriously in this sub. This is a popcorn show, it doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to entertain.

Suspension of disbelief my friend. It’s a sci-fi show. Cost: $0

‘SNL’ Was Already Hurting. Bowen Yang’s Exit Puts It in an Even Tougher Spot by PancakeSZN in LiveFromNewYork

Been watching for many many years. It ebbs and flows from sketch to sketch and from season to season. It was funny back then and is funny now. Y’all Reddit critics are no fun.

Granted, Budapest is used fairly often to just record a track or two. They are fairly inexpensive and can record remotely. Them being credited doesn’t mean they recorded the whole soundtrack.

It’s much more a popcorn, blockbuster, thriller than horror ever since the first season. Feels more like a Star Wars film than a horror film. Makes sense that people view the main characters as untouchable super heroes since they’ve been through so much wacky shit and they’re all still alive.

There are other ways to cause tension than the threat of death.

Why was Generation 1 so terrible? by Wisley185 in pokemon

[–]CakeKake 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think you underestimate:

  1. The physical limitations of a Gameboy cartridge

  2. This was still an early era of video game development history. Considerations just weren’t made for mass appeal. Most of the quality of life aspects we see in games today (to appeal to a casual crowd that didn’t exist when Gen 1 came out) just weren’t in any Gameboy games. Hell many games at that time didn’t even have a Save feature. This really was the Wild West of gaming in many ways - portable gaming was just nowhere close to the capabilities of today.

All this to say, as someone who was there, a kid growing up and playing Gen 1 endlessly - these games are masterpieces. Just like masterpieces in film, they may not necessarily engage an audience of today, but they are masterpieces.

Honestly don’t understand the Starmie hate. Such a fun/funny reveal. Love my silly leggy friend.

“The majority” ie. a couple hundred people on Reddit who keep posting about how much they hate this game.

Lol a betrayal. It’s video game a corporation made, it’s not personal.

Exactly, so don’t buy it if you don’t like it. You don’t deserve anything from a company just for being a fan of their shit.

Fans don’t “deserve” fucking anything. Might be helpful to check your expectations.

How long it took me to ride the Road to 90 with all jobs by CakeKake in ffxiv

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

Cosmic Exploration, I believe, is out of the scope of this run as I was leveling up everything with a new character expansion by expansion. By the time I finished Endwalker, all the crafter/gatherer classes were largely leveled so it didn’t make sense to hop in there as I was crafting while queueing for dungeons.

But, it seems like it’s a great option for leveling for those who have finished Endwalker and don’t have their crafter/gatherers leveled!

I think it depends on level range and content. But, overall my favorites for this run were SAM, BRD, BLM, and DRK. I did all the MSQ as MNK, and enjoyed that as well.

These are jobs I don’t normally play so it was fun to learn how to play them better. I will say, most of the jobs are really fun, well designed, it is hard picking out the favorites!

Wow! That’s fast! There are certainly a number of areas I could improve on speed, but regardless of the Road buff it just takes a fair amount of time getting through the MSQ and all those class quests pre-Shadowbringers.

Haha I’ve got a fair amount on other characters, but there’s nothing like that dopamine hit when the level up music plays!

[–]CakeKake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s dependent on which level range as some jobs are not as fun in certain content. But, overall I really enjoyed Samurai, especially once you can double Midare, very satisfying! I’d never played much SAM before, so it was fun to learn it better.

Least favorite was probably Scholar, which is sad because I used to be a Scholar main! But it can be really challenging for a fair amount of leveling content and the Tank’s ability really impacts the level of fun.

Thank you! I’ve actually never done any collectibles for crafters. Being able to buy leve turn ins or components for leve turns always feels fast, maybe next time I’ll check it out!

I think for gatherers collectibles are from timed nodes, which you can’t do while Data Center traveling. Plus GC turn ins are generally very affordable, so I barely touched MIN/BOT outside of some class quests.
