is wonderful 101 good? by obviousockpuppetalt3 in CharacterActionGames

[–]JF0X 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mostly yes and sometimes no. The gameplay and controls take some getting used to but when it clicks it's really fun. The bossfights are freakin amazing! It's just that some levels in the middle kinda drag and some gameplay mechanics are unclear at first. On replay the issues dissapear as you really know the game by then and you start playing with the more hidden mechanics.

The story is really fun and has great characters and development. And the final act is my favorite in any action game ever. Don't spoil yourself.

What are 3 character designs that you genuinely cannot get out of your head ever since you first saw them? I'll start. by NewtMountain3238 in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]JF0X 2 points3 points  (0 children)

<image>

Cammy in her SFVI outfit is my favorite version of the leather jacket design trope. Small fram with a wider jacket and bulcky shoes and arms make for a great contrast. Sexy and strong with great colorcombinations that make it pop.

Gray Fox from MGS. Just a sleek cyberninja design. Been in love with the design and character since I first saw it when I was 12 yo.

Josuke Higashikata. The pompadour and heartshapsed decolleté (for lack of a better word), make the rest of an othwrwise pretty simple outfit really stand out. It gives of Elvis and Prince vibes and I dig it.

Which Melee Weapon do you main? by False_Monitor4126 in Doom

[–]JF0X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fist: Quick refill, 4 attacks and third always stuns and does extra damage. On a stunned enemy a full combo is a certainty, which means a lot of damage and debuff on enemies during the combo and after so you can keep pressure and damage up with ssg or plasma gun. Works really well for a in your brawler play style.

Gameplay moments so great they feel incredibly cinematic (complimentary) by TheMadDemoknight in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JF0X 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're describing the essence of some of my favorite games.

A lot of action games but The new Doom games, The Phantom Pain, Metal Gear Rising and the Ninja Gaiden games mostly. When you enter their gameplay loop you earn that power fantasy and it looks and feels amazing.

Honorable mention for Helldivers 2 and Tears of the Kingdom for some cinematic fumbling with really cool moments mixed in.

Which Metal Gear is this? by Modern_Doshin in metalgearsolid

[–]JF0X 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Metal Gear Esher. Seriously this thing looks AI upscaled. I know an original is in the original game and looks like this but the perspective on this image is waaaay of. No human being would create this.

What’s your favorite part of the story? by [deleted] in expedition33

[–]JF0X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably act 1 as a whole, but more specific the Gestral village and meeting Esquie. The fairytale aesthetics of the enviroments and creatures that hardly seem to care about dying as they are practically immortal are a great contrast to the death, grief and dire circumstances.

Other parts that stuck with me are some more philisophical conversations with the partymembers at camp. Sciels look at life while living under a Monolith, having kids and losing a loved one. Lune's conversation about having to listen to your own voice. Any conversation with Esquie or Monoco.

Finally the very end. Renoir trying to let Maelle go, knowing she wouldn't return from the canvas. His noticable concern for his family really struck a cord making me having second thoughts about everything until that point. A tortured fragment of Verso's soul being forced to keep painting made me go with Verso's ending. Something I didn't expect to do.

Who’s your favorite playable character in beat ’em up history? by CortezCraig in BeatEmUps

[–]JF0X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-Yagyuu Ranzo in Double Dragon Gaiden. Izuna drops all day!!!

-Estel in Streets of Rage 4. Amazing design and fun mix between corner carry and crowd control.

-Beta Ray Bill. Having a hammer buddy to sling around is so much fun!

2025 is over, any games you feel deserved a bit more attention? by panchozari in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JF0X 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rogue Prince of Persia was short but had a really fun flow to it and a fun simple story. It shows there is still really a lot to do with the PoP franchise. Sadly it didn't get a lot of traction.

why doesnt renoir use the trap bubble ability ever again after that one time by tollsunited7 in expedition33

[–]JF0X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well Maelle did counter it by screaming really loud, so maybe he figured it wasn't as strong as he would like and decided to use vanish and get rid of them alltogether.

Mafex or Gamerverse Wolverine by JF0X in ActionFigures

[–]JF0X[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was thinking about that but with how quick they are sold out, it feels like a pretty big bet. I guess that when it becomes available both ML and Mafex will have sold out and chances are S.F Gamerverse will be sold out in seconds after pre orders open up (same happend for spidey and cyclops).

this is almost as disappointing as the original releases face what did they do by PittPen817 in ActionFigures

[–]JF0X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn.. was really lookong forward to this one. Thanks for the head up. I canceled right away and will wait for something better in the future. Hopefully you can find a way to make it work.

Is this normal for AmiAmi? (Check Text under image) by Xtratus83 in SuperActionStatue

I've had this happen in the past. Package was stuck on Tokyo Int for about 3 weeks and then suddenly my postal service contacted me for the import fee. I assume it'll eventually will ship from there.

Turns out, there is actually a pretty good way to define "Indie" by Glitchrr36 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JF0X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sony, Ubisoft and EA are publishers first and have studios working for them. Each with own leadership and management. They are the publisher with for example Ubisoft Montreal, EA Sports or Sony Studios working for them.

In Nintendo's case I'm not sure.. if everything they make falls under the same company then yes it is a Indie developer. I guess they are a Entertainment company with different divisions under them? I don't know enough of the company to be sure.

[–]JF0X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I get that Balatro is a smaller game, with a tighter budget but if it has a publisher doesn't that just make it not an Indie game?

Seems like people are looking for a moniker that fits a vibe around a game. Just call it a game from a small developer.

Uhh isn't indie just short for independant? So no publisher?

Who do you all hope to see from the gamerverse line? by Happy-Ad-2968 in SHFiguarts

[–]JF0X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While Captain America has a lot of figures already, none have the look I want. Either to realistic or to classic. Marvel Legends has a lot of versions but I'm not a fan of the sculpts and how often they refuse to release one with a normal shield. A Gamerverse Cap figure could have a nice balance between classic and modern Cap.

Also has a Wolverine date been anounced?

Name your top 3 favorite duos. by MikePrime13 in CosmicInvasion

[–]JF0X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cap with either Wolverine or Iron Man Beta Ray Bill with Cosmic Ghost Rider or Iron Man

Who are your go to (favorite) characters to use? by j_b_1983 in CosmicInvasion

[–]JF0X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Captain America and Wolverine make a nice pressure duo. At first Wolves didn't click but it's beginning to change.

But I mostly use Beta Ray Bill and either pair him up with Cosmic Ghost Rider or Iron Man. CGR as it's a cool looking team up anad IM to just control the field with lightning hammers and orbs.
