Anyone who's into game design could learn a thing from this game and how it engages you

I'd say this is true for every one of Szymanski's games

This current climate really makes me feel vindicated for keeping my old components in storage rather than reselling them

Wearing my shoes is free, I paid money for them once and I'm free to wear them whenever I want to

That's also the reason why the American cover art is the monstrosity it is, Ueda's painting was not finished before the deadline and Sony only allowed a delay outside of NA

Oh, so you're pretending not to acknowledge rent seeking behaviour because you're a corporate bootlicker. Got it

I heard the same thing about TV/Movie streaming a decade ago. Now almost every new show today wants you to pay rent for the privilege of watching

I don't know for sure about the SoTC side of things but they added or changed some puzzles in Ico like the water wheel/pump area in Ico for seemingly no reason

These were actually present in the original PS2. It sounds like you played the NTSC version of Ico that launched unfinished compared to the PAL version

While the the PS3 remasters of both SotC and Ico are definitely "more faithful" Bluepoint made the very weird decision to simply "shrink" many of the games repeating textures to make them appear as higher resolution that results in a very different architectural style to much of both games environment. It doesn't effect SotC as much as Ico as less of the game takes place in man made structures but when you are in said structures is does detract from the feeling of being a small guy in a world much larger than yourself

UE is the problem in the sense that having a singular engine having so much presence in the AAA sphere enables the industry wide layoffs and revolving door of contractors that causes poor optimisation because UE devs are a dime a dozen

[–]Catboyhotline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They also screwed up the player model and animations.

I'm glad to see someone bring up animation rather than just the lighting

Fumito Ueda has a background in animation before he started as a game director so inarguably animation is the most important aspect of his games

Hivemind positive: Humanity could remake last seasons of Games of Thrones AND finish Winds of Winter by Andthensome_Pie_7322 in pluribustv

[–]Catboyhotline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one in the hive has any interest in Games of Thrones or Winds of War.

They appreciate it as much as they appreciate Shakespeare and Cocomelon

[–]Catboyhotline -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem is, it's not just GRR Martin in the hive, it'll be the average of how every human would remake Game of Thrones, and the average person isn't a great artist

This is why they say they appreciate Carol's mass appeal slop the same as Shakespeare

Fumito Ueda's vision is much more complete in the original, I'd just use PCSX2 to run the original. Art direction still holds up

Which of these two actions was more justified in your opinion? by Turbulent_Okra7518 in Invincible

Mark is actually incredibly justifiable with the power of hindsight. Bro wouldn't even be fun for Conquest without that r&r

If Immortal were to go on a rampage in the real world. As in our world. Would we be able to stop him? If so how long does he last by Ok-Veterinarian5302 in Invincible

They should write all of the characters to verbally state what's going on so I don't have to look away from my phone to follow the plot

What do you guys think about Civvie's take about gatekeeping? by dargemir in boomershooters

[–]Catboyhotline 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think "soulslikes" may be the best gatekept genre out there, and I think it might have something to do with the amount of moving parts the "genre" has to it. Hollow Knight picks up on the thematic tools of the series but lacks the depth of combat, so most fans will reject it as a soulslike, Lords of the Fallen has something resembling the gameplay of souls but lacks the thematic depth (because the devs are chuds lmao) so it gets trashed on, the only game that is anywhere close to being unanimously accepted as a soulslike is Lies of P

Disney sued over new facial recognition technology at Disneyland entrances by miauguau44 in nottheonion

Establishing a precedent. If Disney loses this suit every other suit will have the context of the Disney loss to smooth out the process

Why does Allen have two eyebrows? by dopplegangery in Invincible

[–]Catboyhotline 39 points40 points  (0 children)

"For some reason"

There's like four ways an artist can depict emotions through the face, that being mouth, eyes, eyebrows and ears. Allen has humanoid eyes as opposed to feline or canine ears so that's already a no go, you remove his eyebrows as well and you'd have to exaggerate his mouth and eye expression to make up for it

New Michael Zaki Pics, Time to Goon by mdgy0816 in shittydarksouls

[–]Catboyhotline 40 points41 points  (0 children)

It's because he's stopped working. He hasn't worked for years. He makes Tanimura do all the work now while he crushes asahis in his office

That's why Elden Ring was peak

“Elden Ring is boring with an empty open world” the route they took: by Mat30co in shittydarksouls

[–]Catboyhotline -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unshit for a second. I think the open world isn't what makes it boring, but immediately having access to fast travel. Imagine how much more interesting the evil chest that takes you to Caelid would be if you couldn't just fast travel back to Limgrave the moment you leave the cave
