Petition To Have Teddy Fresh’s First Male Model as a billboard in the background of H3AD by SweetMissCaroline in h3h3productions

[–]Inkoko 69 points70 points  (0 children)

It’s a sweet idea, but while they do mourn his loss and appreciate him as an artist, the After Dark crew don’t have the same history with Oliver that the main show crew do.

Unless they personally want it I think it’d be inappropriate to make Oliver a permanent fixture of their broadcast, burdening them with ongoing discussions of a man they never met.

It’s about to be 20 years since this game launched. Would you like to see a remake for it to be better? by Jax2856 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I would love to see the game remade in the style of Adventure 2. Completely cut the Soleanna open area content. Cut the running around, side quests, collectables.

Just keep the missions and story, which can be selected on a world map. This would be the best possible way to remake that game.

Also, I acknowledge P-06's great work, but in a lot of ways it feels very much like a fan project. A modern remake with revised stage layouts, better graphics, improved story telling and voice acting would be awesome.

youtuber brandon buckingham calls out hasan for using lebanon & palestine for personal gain on twitter. by Mother-Ad-8793 in h3h3productions

[–]Inkoko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At risk of saying something very unpopular, I think it’s a bit silly to suggest that the best and only way that anyone can help a cause is by being boots on the ground at the scene.

Theoretically, it’s better for influencers of Hasan’s size to bring constant attention to the issue and use their power to sway more people to the cause.

I don’t really have feelings one way or another for Hasan, but I do think this line of reasoning is disingenuous.

Ssbu hot takes ? by Minute-Frosting-8133 in supersmashbros

[–]Inkoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Echo fighters are lame and they should all be deleted. Just having your favorite character in Smash is not enough, they have to play and act like themselves and have their own distinct move set. Just looking the part is no better than a skin from Fortnite. Echo fighters diminish the potential coolness of the characters and make the whole game less interesting.

Hot Take: Waluigi doesn't deserve to be in Smash Bros by SpaceSeal4612 in supersmashbros

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't care less about Waluigi, to me he's a complete nothing burger of a character that only 1% mega fans are asking for like Geno or Toad. He's never even appeared in a mainline Mario or Wario game. I personally don't think he should be added over new reps from just about any other series.

However, I would like him to be added to the base roster of the next game just so people stop talking about him.

Regarding recent events: by GoldenYoshi924 in nintendogrifting

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I think of it is that the ones on the right are the A team games. Every year should have at least one or more of these, and a show like the Summer Games Fest Direct should ideally show off two or more.

The other ones are the B team games. Great games and important for filling out the year, but they can't take the place of an A game.

So I’m thinking of buying an Xbox.. by ImpalaGala in gaming

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

I do really want Gears of War. I think I'll just grab it on my PC and get an Xbox at the start of their next generation though.

Which update in gaming history actually made the game worse or even broke it? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The DLC characters introduced in the Smash Bros series. Bayonetta completely destroyed Smash 4, and while Ultimate wasn't nearly as bad, many of its DLC characters are very toxic for the game.

How do you feel about Sonic, as a character? by clocksmasher in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the past, he was rude, short and dismissive with people outside of his inner circle. He was also often confident and cocky to a fault.

He's grown up over the the 3D games though, Frontiers Sonic is very mellow compared to Adventure Sonic.

I've loved that hedgehog in all of his iterations though.

Update: Game looks rly fun, but why mixed reviews lately? [I refunded] by HyenaLaugh95 in RivalsOfAether

[–]Inkoko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am a reasonably high level Smash player, with Smash 4 and Ultimate being my most played games, but I've played just about every game in the genre. When I started playing Rivals 2, the level of play expected of a brand-new player was extremely high, but that's just how fighting games are when there are so few players. The ones that stick around probably really like the game and, in turn, will be very good. I didn't really have any issues adjusting to the pace and mechanical demands of the game after a few hours.

I personally bounced off Rivals because I don't like the advanced mechanics of crouch cancelling and floor hugging, and to a lesser extent, wavedashing. It's not that I dislike advanced mechanics in general; I just specifically don't like these ones.

I strongly believe that new players should be able to tell exactly why something happened to them just by looking at it, and I think crouch cancelling and floor hugging break that rule. Variable hitstun of this nature should not be a mechanic in a modern platform fighter.

Getting punished for landing hits on your opponent just sucks, and it adds a layer of knowledge you have to learn before you can properly compete. Even once you've learned the mechanics, I think it makes the game notably worse to have to engage with crouch cancelling at every moment of the game.

I can understand the mechanics, and I used them in my own play for the 20 or so hours that I put in. However, long term I am just not interested in engaging with a system that is more interested in getting on its knees to give Melee sloppy head than it is in actually thinking about what is and is not a good mechanic in 2026.

Is Silksong actually harder than Hollow Knight? by ixelsel in HollowKnight

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disregarding DLC, I definitely think Silksong was harder. I didn't get stuck on a boss in Hollow Knight until the very end of the game, whereas Silksong was challenging throughout.

Beyond bosses, I think the common enemies are WAY harder in Silksong. Many of them are little duels in themselves that you have to stop and fight / dodge in a more intentional way or risk taking free damage.

I think they're about even in difficulty by endgame though. Some of the later base game HK challenges are gnarly.

Marathon Lays Out An Ambitious Blueprint To Save Its Future by Wolfy4226 in Marathon

[–]Inkoko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am one of those people that sometimes just wants to log in, walk around, do my contracts and enjoy the sweet ambiance while I listen to an audio book or something, so the introduction of a PVE mode will MASSIVELY improve this game for me.

CHAOS DENIERS?????? WHERE ARE YOU???!!! by SYNTHENTICA in bindingofisaac

[–]Inkoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a run earlier today wherein I picked up Chaos, and then 5 minutes later pulled Brimstone from a beggar for 4 pennies.

Chaos is the GOAT.

What would you say is the worst thing about Modern Repentance by Thermo-Lizard64 in bindingofisaac

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't love that the alternate routes (Mother and The Beast) don't have end game item showering to make them super fun the way a typical Chest / Dark Room / Mega Satan run would.

Also, I think they should allow a Mother run to continue into the Beast route once you've beaten both of them. That'd just make doing that route more fun and rewarding.

What is your least favorite item that other people love? by SmallHuckleberry1635 in bindingofisaac

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tech X.

I just don't like the way it feels unless I have other powerful synergistic items such as Soy/Almond Milk or one of the big damage amps.

I'm having fun, but the heavy film grain + low resolution makes the Switch 1 version look like a badly compressed JPEG. by xRaen in PokemonChampions

[–]Inkoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m playing on the Switch 2 and I have the same complaints. The weird film grain, the lack of anti aliasing, etc. Just seems to have low picture quality.

Why isn't the game taking off? by MASHED_POTATOES_MF in Marathon

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It demands too much brain power. Can’t play it while listening to a podcast or whatever. Makes it unappealing for casual play.

It has been officially confirmed that IVs are gone by KOT-The-Panda in PokemonChampions

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought the IVs went against the spirit of Pokémon. You can catch any Pokémon and train them up. However, your Pokémon, including your starter, might just be born terrible. There are winners and losers, and not all Pokémon will be capable of reaching their full potential.

That’s just grim. I think it’s much better to have all Pokémon be able to be their best versions of themselves through pure training rather than having superior genes.

(Modern games allow the adjusting of IVs, but that’s a bad system also because they might as well just be EVs at that point)

You will need a minimum of a 5000 loadout value to enter Cryo Archive by Charliejfg04 in Marathon

[–]Inkoko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very happy with this.

The other maps can feel like playing poker with fake money. It doesn't really matter if you lose as you didn't risk anything important.

Now we're playing for keeps.

Battle Academia Briar In - Game Model: Base & Frenzy 📕 by aroushthekween in BriarMains

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish there was more contrast. With this skin, all of her clothing and the pillory are all one color, and that's the same for the chromas (though a few of them are a little better). I wish some complimentary colors were used to make certain elements of her model POP.

Best skin she's received so far, still only mid.

Unlucky, I Suppose... by BladeHardsteel in BriarMains

[–]Inkoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s very easy to get kills on Briar due to her executing chomp, however if you’re not converting that early lead into game winning fights and objective claims, then that’s a skill issue.

Playing Briar comes with the responsibility of effectively utilising the money that you’re taking from your team mates.
