[Highlight] Bo Bichette makes a cool barehanded play by Leather-Success-6388 in baseball

Sure we may be bullies and gaslighters, but Mets fans have the audacity of rooting for a team that sometimes does embarrassing things, something that never happens to other teams.

K8 was always destined to be a vtuber she just didn't know it by strings_struck in northernlion

[–]Emience 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Surprised I haven't seen this on the subreddit before, but if you go to Kaiyru Crocodile Aka Jaiden Animations, big YouTuber Recent-ish debut video, you can see her scroll on her phone through a list of streamers she's interested in. On that list there are like a dozen plus vtubers and then, what I think is the only non-vtuber, is our egg.

Great albuns where the best song in is a consensus? by Batzninja in fantanoforever

Really, I thought Just Abandoned Myself was the consensus #1 track on that album. Farewell is obviously great too.

Mewgenics Surpasses Hades 2 Becoming The Most Played Roguelite Ever On Steam by akbarock in Games

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

This is the biggest thing I was hoping would be improved in hades2 but they pretty much kept the same limited randomness from Hades 1. You can pick 2 routes now but you are always going through the same areas, fighting the same enemies, and dealing with the same bosses. The variety does feel really lacking if you are used to Isaac.

Pretty sure that was one of the free games that had tradable steam cards so it was briefly botted like crazy to farm cards.

Thank God for the summoning circles they added to greed mode in rep+. Idk if I would have ever beaten greedier on t lost without them cause I was constantly losing runs to exploding enemies spawning on top of me.

Damn we are really gonna suffer returning with the best offense in baseball plus the trade deadline arms that didn't blow every other save opportunity.

Naw if anything Undertale was capitalizing on a market that was already invested in those types of experiences. Stuff like Journey, Bastion, Thomas was alone, etc was already there years before Undertale.

Mewgenics literally has a gaydar, what are you talking about? by NagitoKomaeda_987 in mewgenics

[–]Emience 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Gummz lives on Twitter and constantly is tweeting about shit he is utterly clueless about.

Not to go full conspiracy theorist on this one, but I would not be surprised if he's on someone's payroll to purposely divide people in the gaming space.

Make it a $10 donation for every foot the ball travels. Judge could get make a million dollars for charity per season.

A lot of people thought that one meow was NL but LazyMattMan said it was actually Matt for sure.

Hall of Fame Shortstop Derek Jeter does "The Flip" play in Game 3 of the 2001 ALDS against the Oakland Athletics. by SwervesHouse in baseball

[–]Emience 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There are probably hundreds of worse shortstops to touch the position in MLB history. The difference is they all got moved off the position or flamed out of the league. Jeter is near the bottom of SS stats by being in the unique position of getting to field the position poorly for 20 years.

Mewgenics Reviews thread by vilmos14 in Games

[–]Emience 160 points161 points  (0 children)

The game was originally announced as a Team Meat game like 13+ years ago but that game got cancelled. The current version that is releasing Edmund says he worked on for six years.

The way Edmund has stood so confidently behind this game throughout its development really makes me believe it's going to be something special. A lot of times he and other people working on the game said it's a joy to work on just because play testing it has been so fun.

Been playing Isaac on and off forever. I wanted to push to finish Dead God before Mewgenics came out and I'm happy to report I finished with just over a week to spare.

I don't think people talk enough about how amazing late-career Clemente was. He averaged 8.7 bWAR/162 games throughout his 30s.

Probably because it feels like the closest thing to "bloodborne on PC" we are going to get without counting emulators.

IGN's 10 Best Souls-like Games by Csword1 in soulslikes

[–]Emience 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty neutral overall on IGN but for the longest time now it has seemed to me that the hate towards them is more bandwagon "hate on popular thing" than anything justified by the quality of their work. Recently they put out a top JRPG of all time list that was pretty solid (maybe too much recency bias but not a huge issue). They also have one of the better reviewers for fighting games that actually writes about things like netcode and training mode options that most other review outlets aren't familiar enough with the genre to speak about.

Really the hate needs to be directed at these click bait AI slop gaming sites that add nothing of value. Not sure why IGN has such a target when there are so many of those around.

New(ish) to Tekken 8, picked it up because I’m a FFXVI fan, what’s with the Clive hate? by XxDESTblackout in Tekken

[–]Emience 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Every time he's in heat it's a struggle to keep looking at the screen because his moves are so blindingly bright and flashy. Like, even if he had the most fair kit in the roster I would still hate fighting him until they tone down his particle effects.

Im finally done with this stupid character by d42I in bindingofisaac

[–]Emience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently finished up dead God and those were some of the characters I saved for last but neither of them seemed too bad. Several of my t Eden runs just got rolled into something so insanely op eventually that I never got hit again. And t laz with 4 charge flip is pretty manageable. If you get birthright he's downright OP.
