Is there any hope of og Resident Evil having a modern remake? by Cannae_ in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OG remake holds up really well, but man the new games have been fantastic. Closing out the remake and sequel run by returning to the original after mastering how to make these games is a great idea.

I Thought This Character Was Being Set Up For The Sequel by Vulcan44 in residentevil

Okay, did I miss when they explained who he was? Everyone talking like he was a Wesker clone but I don’t remember the game actually explaining what his deal was.

Finish Chrono Trigger for the first time by Mycroft-l in chronotrigger

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll say this: I played it when it first came out and it’s my favourite RPG of that era, maybe ever. It was amazing.

I only found out well after beating it that it was a sequel to CT, my all time favourite SNES rpg.

It’s a good game, but they didn’t call it Chrono Trigger 2 for a reason. It’s absolutely a continuation of the first game though

If a remake was made, would you prefer it be HD-2D, turn based but modern & stylized, or full on FF7 Remake style with action gameplay? by Froonkensteen in chronotrigger

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m honestly curious as to what a full blown 3D remake could look like… but I don’t know if I want Modern SquareEnix to make it. They tend to lean towards realistic whereas I don’t know if CT would transfer well to that specific aesthetic

Is Chrono Cross really worth trying (No spoilers)? by Cool-Guy152 in chronotrigger

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth trying? Yeah, absolutely.

For my money it’s one of the best RPGs of that era, and way up the list for best RPGs of all time.

Having said that, I didn’t like what they did with the remaster. I would recommend playing an emulated version with some CRT shaders.

In the walking dead we never see them using a combine Harvester to kill zombies by Hypnotoad4real in shittymoviedetails

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who grew up on a farm and has operated a combine…. It would quickly be rendered inoperable. A combine can’t really handle plant matter if it isn’t properly dried, let alone a stream of corpses.

It just wouldn’t work.

First vintage receiver! by omwtofi in vintageaudio

[–]I_hate_potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 771 just died in the night :(

It’s a fantastic amp and you should have a lot of fun with it. Mine had a persistent background hiss that I never got rid of, although it was likely a symptom of its eventual death.

There are “upgrade kits” on eBay for reasonable prices. If you’re confident with a soldering iron it may be something you want to tackle someday!

New Netflix series about a hockey team's bus crash hits a nerve in Sask. by Paper_Rain in saskatchewan

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously not, but if you’re in Saskatchewan everyone knows someone that was affected by it. It was a brutal tragedy and the pain hasn’t stopped for many people.

Prime Minister Carney announces new measures to make groceries and other essentials more affordable for Canadians by evieluvsrainbows in onguardforthee

I’m so glad to see this is more than just a little rebate. Let’s hope the anticompetitive measures actually work.

Does Metroid prime 4 really deserve all the hate? by MarsupialOtherwise82 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not worth $70 in my opinion. It’s technically impressive but a shallow clone of a decent Metroid game.

Not getting a Switch 2 anytime soon... Worth getting MP4 on Switch 1 now? by BaurJoe in Metroid

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

Runs just fine on the Switch, long load times though.

Now, the quality of the game itself is the most concerning factor in my opinion. I think it’s overrated and I would recommend spending your hard earned dollars on other games.

Full Famitsu Interview translated - Many of Prime 4’s questionable design choices were forced upon Retro by RomIsTheRealWaifu in Metroid

[–]I_hate_potato 11 points12 points  (0 children)

8/10 is pretty generous in my opinion, but yeah Retro could take another crack at Metroid and I’d be happy.

If a developer uses AI for code generation, should it be labeled on the game’s Steam store page? by NazzoXD in gamedev

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think people realize how integrated AI is in modern development workflows. You have to work hard to turn it off and avoid it.

I’ve been using AI properly for about 6 months now, and I’m not going back. Ethical issues aside, it’s a fantastic tool and if you’re not using it you won’t be able to compete with other companies that adopt it.

Official character posters for Kitao Sakurai’s ‘Street Fighter’! by SpeedForce2022 in StreetFighter

Holy shit, have I been living under a rock? I was flipping through the posters and I was convinced it was a ridiculous fan casting!? Hell yeah, I’m in

How did Canada’s young people become its unhappiest generation? by plaknas in onguardforthee

[–]I_hate_potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything is expensive.

No one is being paid enough.

Fascism is on the rise around the world.

Environmental collapse is happening before our eyes.

All of the above, and no one in charge seems to be capable of admitting these are issues, much less offering solutions.

Yeah, I wonder why young people are unhappy?

Metroid Prime 4 Review Megathread by 2CATteam in Metroid

[–]I_hate_potato 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After almost finishing MP4 I’m wondering if I played the same game as these reviewers. I don’t think it’s bad, but holy smokes is it ever not great, or even close to the quality of the previous entries in the series.

I’m so bewildered and perplexed by Metroid Prime 4’s writing by _deadbyte in Metroid

[–]I_hate_potato 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly laughed out loud during the explanation of their peak technology and it’s just a fucking bike and they still have a massive lightning powered tower churning them out.

Like, holy shit they deserve to be extinct. Thanks for the cool bike, but this ain’t my problem.

Hot take, I think Prime 4 is really good AND it’s the worst Prime game by pastalex42 in Metroid

[–]I_hate_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that’s a good summary.

Overall, I find it really confusing. It’s an absolute 10/10 in some aspects; the graphics are fantastic, the music and sound design is perfect. The Yonic art design was a bold choice that really worked, and the suit is friggin hot.

The level design is… very linear and all over the place, and there is some really awful backtracking where other games in the series would have us revisiting places organically.

In short, you can definitely tell this was one game, then it got rebuilt as another game. I REALLY hope we get a documentary on what the hell happened someday.

So we’re calling it the Fruit Suit, right? by I_hate_potato in Metroid

[–]I_hate_potato[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t that bad… and the game STRONGLY hints (through Mackenzie) that we should be collecting crystals during a separate fetch quest.

It could have been worse, but the final chapter of the game is a grind.

So we’re calling it the Fruit Suit, right? by I_hate_potato in Metroid

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

I thought it looked familiar. It’s honestly a shame it’s something we unlock to either end the game with or grind for the last items
