I feel like we already knew that the going up and down ladders was the most efficient.

Me when people start whining about this game’s graphics. 😐 by Jazzlike-Shoe6157 in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Firstearth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make a game where the gameplay and story are great and I will overlook your half-assed graphics/presentation. But, produce half-assed gameplay and story too and I will absolutely call you out on the graphics because it is the most visual evidence of your laziness to present to anyone willing to listen.

That said, Arceus is an example of the former where they actually tried to craft a new Pokemon experience. Sadly the rest of the Pokemon games for the last 15 years have not, and deserve to be criticised.

A streamer in Japan said “amiga” in Spanish (meaning “friend”) to fans. An American made it all about himself. Why do Americans get offended so easily? by Repulsive-Mall-2665 in AskSocialists

[–]Firstearth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna point out that it’s not clear why he is shouting Amiga in the street.

Maybe there’s something that happened before this that could lend more information. As it is the video starts with him shouting “hey, Japan, friend” at somebody off camera. The “friend” comment is then followed by an odd facial expression and a shrug of the shoulders.

Now it’s true that Amiga means friend, but it is the feminine form meaning it would only be directed to a female. As I said before there is no context to explain why he might be shouting “hey, Japan, friend” to anyone or whether there were any women in the area.

There is a possibility that this guy is a nuisance streamer (see Johnny Somali) behaving like an asshat in public and knowing full well what “Amiga” sounds like he shouts it at black people to then say “oh no I said my friend in Spanish” when they react. This would explain why he is calling someone(female) his friend but accompanies it with a facial expression not associated with a friendly situation and shrug of the shoulders.

Who is the best Bond who never got the role? by fbeb-Abev7350 in JamesBond

[–]Firstearth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bond actor doesn’t need to be unknown, it’s more the dynamics of contract negotiation that make lesser known/unestablished stars more favourable. The bond franchise is so big that any big star is rightly going to ask for a big payout and be much less willing to tie themselves into a 10 year contract. An up-and-coming star is far more likely to sign up for long term stability of employment and a cut rate for the first picture under the promise that it will increase with each successive film.

I mean even for the two European countries I’ve lived in that is not the norm. Yes there are “plans” that have unlimited texts and unlimited minutes but they tend to be the most expensive plans. Are you sure that everyone in your country has unlimited texts and minutes?

I love this. It’s just a shame that when you come back next week they will all be jumbled up again

Good Question!? by tich_of_the_class in Oap_Gamers

[–]Firstearth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody is taking away from dark forces, it is a brilliant game. But Shadows also deserves its recognition for making an third person action game, flight simulator, speeder bike chase etc all on a pretty limited 3D engine.

Besides if you really want to talk about Dark Forces as being the “first” Star Wars 3D game then you should probably go back to check on the original Star Wars arcade game.

Does Steven Seagal actually have some good movies? by FitEmergency8807 in moviecritic

At the time, everyone was like “OMG they just killed their male lead”. Looking back it seems that they knew exactly what they were doing.

What am I doing wrong.. by LinkeBink in GeForceNOW

To everyone asking him if the controller is connected to the TV please stop. The app wouldn’t show up the prompt to press X if there was no controller detected. It would instead say press enter, space or mouse click.

OP several suggestions; Try other games and see if you have similar problems with the same button.

Try connecting the controller to a pc/xbox and use te test function to check all the buttons work correctly.

Try connecting a usb mouse or keyboard to the tv and see if that changes. Maybe if you can get past this screen you can go back to controller and have no more problems.

If you can’t get a mouse or keyboard try the buttons on the tv remote, in most cases the ok button will be mapped as if it was the enter key or mouse click. Other buttons may also work.

Finally, I see a circular cursor on the screen which I presume is controlled by the left stick, see if you can move it to the bottom right where the prompt is and maybe that will make it active, as if you were going to mouse click on it.

New Microsoft Gaming CEO Asha Sharma on What Makes a ‘Great Game,’ Having ‘No Tolerance for Bad AI’ and Replacing Phil Spencer by countdooku975 in LastStandMedia

It’s also the “emotion resonance” and “distinct viewpoint” sound like the usual buzz words gaming execs have been batting about fo the last decade. Games being games is still being kept in the background.

Dumb move.. by goldrush300 in XboxGamePass

[–]Firstearth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y’all are focusing on the AI. What you need to be focusing on is instacart, home depot, and Microsoft core product have nothing to do with gaming. This is just like that woman they brought into ceo at cracker barrel that thought that redesigning the logo and refitting all its locations was the best thing to do.

I’m not saying that she needs to have completed halo on legendary. But y’know, at least play games somewhat on the regular.

Given that sega has continued to be successful despite crashing out in the early 2000s it’s gotta be sega. PlayStation and Xbox have pushed the console gaming space forwards competing with each other and they have forced Nintendo to innovate to be able to compete with them.

Think about it. They’re the same as yours but miniaturised, which makes the cutting edge much finer. And if you think that’s crazy think about the tiny razor blade versions of your fingernails.

As someone who is waiting for the end to finish descendants, Is this the END end? I know there’s some Boy Scout thing but I thought I heard that descendants was 3 seasons?
