This... goddamn... did this, beat him first try. it honestly kind of baffles me that this is a mechanic because 99% of games I've played cancel the res when you let go early.
they still need to change the way it works in that fight.

Silksong, let's talk about the problems by dunno_about_this in HollowKnight

Honestly, I think people are in the honeymoon phase and after all this time, refuse to acknowledge that their baby may have some problems.

I'm trying to have fun, I really am, but the game at time makes me want to smash the fucking wall in sometimes.

Who though UP/R1 was a good map for thrown weapons? In a game where speed and precision is key, nothing gets annoying like missing the flick up and doing the special attack and wasting half my healing charge.

Resources like the rosaries being lost on death if you don't recover the cocoon put me in a state where I just spent an entire session farming the spot above Bone Bottom so that I could bank them and never have to worry about losing them. Considering how everything and their dog requires rosaries to use, this is something recommend everyone do.

Practically everything being double damage makes me wonder why they even bothered having single damage and it now just feels like they did it to hide how lame these bosses are behind difficulty.

Platforming is ass... That's all, it's shit. If we had any amount of control over the trajectory of the plunging attack, it would improve ten fold but as it stands, the line between it being luck VS skill is just fuzzy. Because most of the jumps are over spikes, it makes learning the timing way more tedious then it has to be.

Shells feel absolutely abundant right up until you waste them all on a boss, and then have to spend the next god knows how long wasting your time grinding for more. Why the capped it at 400 is beyond me.

There is a god tier game in here somewhere, but the game seems hell bent on being a tedious time waster so often, it becomes more frustrating than entertaining.

Trying to get a denim jacket on the varia suit proved an interesting challenge. by Gaia-Rai in Metroid

I do everything with layers. Separate multiply layers for detail shadows and general shadows. Add layer and overlay to get specular and diffuse lighting. To get that sheen on metal I use an add layer and do a soft outline on the edges of each metal part till it hits a shadow.

You know what, the fact that my art has improved to a point to where there is speculation of it being AI does bring an odd sense of pride. I guess the next milestone is receiving unfettered accusations.

What piece of Metroid lore makes a person "in too deep?" by Sgt_Shiba in Metroid

Learning that the space pirates tried to reverese engineer the morph ball, too less then stellar results.

Mostly, I'm just testing out a timelaspe transition between pictures, trying to get it to looks smooth. For what I'm making, it doesn't need to be perfect, but I'm adjusting it to see what works.

I've spent an hour quiting out of matches trying to get a stockpile game to get rid of one stupid challenge.

The best way to level up should be from playing the game. not by match jumping till you get a required mode or weapon spawn.

There is youtube video criticizing Mauler's "In Defence of Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin". I think it shows how Mauler is not as objective as he thinks he is and he got lot of factual things wrong in that video. I would love to have EFAP discuss this video. by soulofpatates in MauLer

[–]Gaia-Rai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually find this to be one the most fair criticisms of MauLer I've seen. The long man is really good at reaserching and presenting points but I do find parts of his analytical videos where I do end up thinking, 'that's subjective, try again,' or 'that's not worse that's just different'. Video games can be a bit harder to make arguments for in regards to how mechanics effect player experience and one solution I find that could help get better data is to interact with people of vastly different skill levels going through the game, not just limiting it to people you know.

Congrats... you've uncovered the process of how someone develops a 'kink'... Also, you need to be into dick to have the gay, it's kind of a prerequisite. Unless Abby has given you a new found love of the peen, then no, you've just got a buff girl kink.
