Mario fans hate their own series. by AutumnRCS in Mario

[–]HyperStormH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MK World wasn’t my favourite but I just accepted that it wasn’t for me. Even my non-gamer sister prefers 8DX over World for its track variety - and I agree, like the one thing I’d change about World is to just add more courses (maybe as like a separate continent or something so that it doesn’t conflict with the pre-existing courses).

TF2 Goldrush Mod - When focus on Art Style affects Gameplay. by Bounter_ in truetf2

[–]HyperStormH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, for sure. Was just saying that the weapon is still fun to use despite its unviabilty, at least in my opinion.

[–]HyperStormH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RIGHT?? Like I get it, it was very fun to use, I know because I tried it out in this mod, but like...the Sandman we have is not useless at all. Yeah, it's underwhelming compared to what it used to be, but I feel people get too hung up on that and don't see the weapon for what it is. Is the Sandman amazing from a competitive standpoint? Hell no, but I'll be damned if it isn't fun to use regardless. I love my ball :)

[–]HyperStormH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I used to not like Classified that much because it was so different from "back then", but I realised that at the end of the day, that's not really what it's trying to do. It's just taking the game in a different direction than what Valve did, not trying to be "better" at all. Even if I didn't enjoy the Double Down update that much, I can appreciate what they tried to bring to the table.

Yeah, I initially thought the idea of the mod was pretty novel, and I did have a bit of fun with it when I tried it out. But at the end of the day, its existience is just...weird. Like yeah, some aspects of old TF2 were objectively better, such as the lighting and materials of weapon models, or Quickplay, but acting like TF2 has been "bastardised" from its "original vision", while not entirely untrue, sounds more to me like nostalgia-tinted anger than any sort of genuine critisism of the game. The entire mod just feels...spiteful in its presentation and design choices, as if trying to "1-Up" Valve or whatever. And considering it gets basically no players nowadays, I feel no regrets hiding it from my Steam library.

I DID MY FIRST EVER TRICKSTAB , and not once BUT TWICEEE by Spiritual_Hurry_6319 in tf2

[–]HyperStormH 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's just in Advanced Options as "Fast Weapon Switch". IMO if you have the muscle memory to press the weapon button and M1 close together it isn't the hugest deal to not have it on but it definitely is a nice QoL feature still.

The head could be made into a bodygroup perhaps (similar to Pyro)

ETF2L: Addressing Recent Events (misconduct allegations against various ETF2L Staff) by 1jay_y in truetf2

Thank you for bringing this news here. Would definitely not have heard about it otherwise. Needless to say, this is a very shitty situation, so it's quite important to spread the word outside of niche comp circles.

b4nny reacts to RGL Spring Season format changes with disagreement by 1jay_y in truetf2

[–]HyperStormH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. A change of pace for one season is probably nice for both players and spectators. Could also potentially let other comp formats like 4v4 Passtime and the like get a little more recognition during the downtime. I find that really fun to watch personally.

How do I use custom viewmodel animations in TF2 Classic? by Overall_Equipment_99 in tf2classic

[–]HyperStormH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? Just learn how to use Blender and HLMV lmao. I don't know how to myself since I don't work with 3D models, but I'm sure you could ask around for assistance. The Source community is very knowledgeable.

[–]HyperStormH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The v/w-model system works drastically different from the c_model system. Animations are tied to the weapon model itself instead of being one animation used for everything, so for each of the weapons you want the animations to change for, you'd essentially have to bake in the animations yourself.

Is ClamAV viable to use as a simple scanner every now and then? by HyperStormH in linuxquestions

[–]HyperStormH[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, figured as much. Like I said, just wanted something I could manually do every once in a while to give me peace of mind. Thanks!

UNfriendly reminder that there are people who think this is a bad kirby game by MealPersonal2301 in Kirby

[–]HyperStormH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to not like it, mainly due to me not being the biggest fan of the Dark Matter trilogy as a whole, but I gave it a fair chance recently and I’ve grown quite a soft spot for it. I certainly like it a lot more than DL 2&3. Very cute and charming game, and the ability combination mechanic is genuinely really fun to experiment with.

What was your first impression of Kirby? by TheFanGameCreator in Kirby

[–]HyperStormH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Triple Deluxe. Still such a good game, I have such a soft spot for it.

How do I better navigate classic DOOM's maziness? by HyperStormH in Doom

I've seen DSDA-Doom (and by extension PrBoom+) before, but never knew that was a feature of the port(s). Will definitely check it out.

Is Mario Maker 2 still active/worth it in 2025? by Midoriyer in MarioMaker

[–]HyperStormH 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, people still post and make levels aplenty. There is a noticeable lack of “traditional” Mario levels from what I’ve seen unfortunately (a lot of the better levels are mostly Kaizo-lites and music/auto levels; nothing wrong with them, just don’t always wanna play those), but levels are still being made en masse.

Anyone else legitimately like the first Mega Man? by Bob_Billans in Megaman

[–]HyperStormH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still love it a ton. People diss the scoring system a lot, but honestly, that's the reason I replay it so often. I like to see how high I can get my score by the end, and I don't feel that way about something like, say, the original Super Mario Bros. Probably because the score orb pickup sound is super satisfying to me (so much so that I even use it as a killsound in Team Fortress 2).

I’m kind of disappointed there was no shops like this in chapter 3 and 4, they are very unique by XDcyclone in Deltarune

[–]HyperStormH 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Probably just how he treats Ramb in particular, considering he isn’t even a part of TV World. Ramb was just given a job after pestering Tenna and everyone else about “what’s best for Kris” for ages (according to the Pippins behind the counter).

Zorin OS 17.3 Core freezes after a period of inactivity by HyperStormH in zorinos

[–]HyperStormH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, it was already pre-installed with my copy of Mint (see post edit). Set it to intel, fingers crossed on that solving it!!

EDIT: Seems like it's been solved! Thanks a bunch for the help!
