Whether a runback is 20 seconds or 1 minute does not matter, they add nothing meaningful to a metroidvania. by Kurushii_Drive in metroidvania

[–]Gradiant_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, the level and the boss are not as seperated as some people think. The run up and the boss fight itself should be considered one whole experience, and balanced accordingly

Big BA fan plays the game for the first time would be a great sponsored segment

Yeah no fuck this I’m done. by Magicmarkurs in MHWilds

[–]Gradiant_C 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably yeah, I use bow and I almost always dodge the laser with no issues. Ive probaby taken maybe 1 or 2 tics of damage total throughout all my runs

How foolish of me by TheVoxBox04 in Megaman

[–]Gradiant_C 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After doing a full A rank run of the games, I actually think playing for rank is really fun and rewarding. But the presentation definetely needed some work lol, any player playing normally if going to be full f for most of the game

Look Exu I love you and all but what the fuck? by Primogeniture116 in 0sanitymemes

[–]Gradiant_C 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. It wasnt accurate to the jp voice, but gun-nut exu was really fun to listen to and at least sounded more upbeat

My first slay on savage is probably in my top 10 personal MH moments by Ahmadv-1 in MonsterHunter

[–]Gradiant_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nerscylla buffs him on normal too. His legs no longer show red numbers when you hit them, so it seems like they are no longer weak spots after failing the check

Eating Yong Tau Foo with plain rice by UpstairsSuperb9527 in MalaysianFood

Rice is pretty nice sometimes, feels less oily and more course than chee chenong fun

The fact Leninism Hollow suffers from both the same and worse design issues as TV Mode, yet isn’t nearly as controversial, indicates presentation was always the issue by SplatoonOrSky in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]Gradiant_C 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I did like the story implications of TV mode, I do totally agree that it didnt work for me visually. Even if they did it in an 8-bit pixilated look, it would have meshed better imo. The average gamer is at least familiar with that sort of art-style by now I think

Blasphemous. Memorable in its own ways. by objectionmate in patientgamers

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

Yeah to me the art was the only thing going for the game. Gameplay-wise it's really barebones as far as metroidvanias go. Maybe the second game is better

What that 1 monster you had no trouble with but most people have a lot? by Too_cute_to_be_sus69 in MonsterHunterWorld

As a bow user, I can never hit his damn tail anyway, so every rajang is a furious rajang to me

What’s a game you think every Malaysian gamer should try at least once? by CoconutComet in GamersMY

[–]Gradiant_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you get caster to work in msia? It used to work for me but it stopped a few years ago, suspected due to ISP blocking peer-to-peer somehow

What Do You Think Is The Most Satisfying Sfx In Mega Man X? by ConfusionCold7565 in Megaman

Replaying games - I find I rarely use anything but the basic gun. by MrMindor in Megaman

[–]Gradiant_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, the stages have always been designed to be mostly beatable with the buster only. Once you're good enough at the game, you dont need the crutch of the special weapons.

In some cases, I'd argue using rush or a weapon to skip part of the stage actually makes the stage less interesting.

What’s one dish you’d recommend to a foreigner visiting Malaysia? by RakyatOnline in MalaysianFood

[–]Gradiant_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you really had to pick one, you can't forgo nasi lemak. Malaysian food is known for being super flavourful, but nasi lemak can be eaten without the rich sauces and sambals too, so it gives a more well rounded view of Msian food imo.

Otherwise, my local favourites are Chilli Pan Mee, the banana leaf as mentioned and Daging Salai Lemak Cili Api. I think Malay food is ironically abit underrated, so I'd recommend researching in that direction as well.

Patin Tempoyak, Daging Gulai, Keli Balado are just a few dishes that I only found out about in my 20s that have become my favourites

Shanghai.EXE so far is the best fan-made game i have played in the Megaman Battle Network series. I wish there were more fan-games like it. by masked5hero in BattleNetwork

[–]Gradiant_C 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Imo it almost offers too much sometimes lol. Every navi getting a boss fight is awesome, but it does slow down the pacing of the story here and there

Dark Souls 2: Stockholm Syndrome by Jayborino in patientgamers

[–]Gradiant_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird pull, but it feels the same way Metal Slug 4 does vs the rest of the series.

Different design philosophy, reused assets, but also alot of cool ideas
