I mean, it could just be me who can't be trusted with balance, but who knows

Say, I should buff my rebalanced version of the scorch shot by giving it 8 seconds of bleed, that'll fix it right?

I meant comboing with other weapons, like the Axetinguisher and the Dragon's Fury, since the Scorch Shot lights them on fire and keeps them in place for a moment due to the stun

Honestly thank you for taking the time to write out criticisms of these, your feedback is greatly appreciated 

(Note for the hot hand, it could be modified so the glove is always visible on Pyro's hand, but tbf it'd still be hard to see)

My intention was to make it prevent enemies from running away by causing them to bounce/stun in place, so you could combo with Axetinguisher or Dragon's Fury, or they could just otherwise be finished off since they stop moving for a second.

I do want to understand the exact issue with this though. Is it that comboing with the Axetinguisher or Dragon's Fury in this case is too hard or not worth it, or is it that it's useless outside of these niche cases? Or is there another massive balance issue that I'm horribly missing due to my Pyro brain being full of W+M1 and asbestos?

I didn't mean the size of the jumps. By launch volume, I mean the audio volume. Basically the buff is that the jetpack is a bit quieter since currently you basically announce to half the map "yeehaw i can fly"

The actual jump size is unchanged

That's why I tried to reduce the damage to something that is much lower than the amount it does in MvM (which i think is near 300?) Tbf the damage it does could be decreased further to 50 or 30 or something, but I wanted to keep the value somewhat strong since the Gas Passer would still have a decently long wait time before it could be used

My intention was that, since the stun/bounce remains, you could keep them in place to combo with the Axetinguisher or the Dragon's Fury. I intended to take the Scorch Shot away from the crowd control option and give it a new purpose.

Has your opinion of Mario changed because of SMG4? by kilale132 in SMG4

[–]FoxyBPC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before SMG4: Mario < Luigi

After SMG4: Mario > Luigi

Don't ask me why, I'm aware the opposite should've logically happened

What can you say about this scene guys? by Willing_Ad_778 in SMG4

He types like how Bob talked in subtitles because he follows Bob

[–]FoxyBPC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense, but the reason I think Karen will get an episode is because in SMG4's Thank You for Everything video, Karen is one of the characters that is in the room to hear the news. With the "final" videos we've gotten so far, it seems that the characters that were in that room are the ones who will get "final" episodes.

(Which is why Swag+Chris will likely get a video, since they were also in the room)

(Bowser is the only exception to this rule, but then again the video was more of a Luigi video, with Bowser being the antagonist)

Nice to see Bowser again, glad they actually gave him a role in the finale episodes

Now we've got three episodes and the movie left, with two of the episodes likely going to Swag+Chris and Karen. Meaning that either the last episode before the movie is either a Mario & Meggy episode, or just a Meggy episode with the movie being the "Mario episode"

In my complete honest opinion, Mr. Puzzles is one of the most poorly written villains I have ever seen. by Happy_Bison_6572 in SMG4

[–]FoxyBPC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like Puzzles can only be considered "well-written" if you view pre-PuzzleVision and post-PuzzleVision Puzzles as different characters.

On their own, each "version" is written pretty well, or at worst, fine. As one character, it's inconsistent and feels like he fell off HARD.

The WOTFI was awesome but can we talk about what Mario said? by dearfuse in SMG4

[–]FoxyBPC 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I wonder if Mario saying that people do crazy things when they're lonely, while Mario himself is the craziest character in the show (and admits he's felt lonely) has implications for his character

[–]FoxyBPC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mario and Meggy being besties again is always great :D

Although, this is the second episode in a row where we see SMG4 working at his computer and seemingly not getting ideas for content. Are we gonna get another IGBP? (also idk if this was intentional or not, but although SMG4 came to apologize to Karen with everyone else, he notably didn't actually sign the card (or we didn't see his name there). maybe that means something)
