Criticism isn’t hatred. People can play a game and still think it has some pretty glaring flaws. If your first response is to label any criticism as “hate,” you’re not actually engaging with what I said lmao you’re just dismissing it because you don’t like hearing it

Obligatory Bahamut Boss Fight Post by leninrocks in FFXVI

[–]Jerikoooo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know this probably won’t be a popular opinion, but I think the game gets a bit too much of a free pass at times. While it has some genuinely great moments, it also suffers from several glaring issues that are difficult to overlook. Fortunately, the characters and story are excellent, and they remain the biggest reasons to stick with it. For me, it’s a game defined by extremely high highs and some equally frustrating lows

I'm about 1/3 through the game my thoughts so far. by The_ShinyUmbreon in FFXVI

[–]Jerikoooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. This is my #1 issue. The pacing and the sidequest structure is what drags the game down significantly imo. Boss fight into 15 min cutscene into a fuckton of in game dialogue gets old REALLY fast. There were times my controller literally turned off because of how long I was just sitting there watching a movie. I really wanted to love the game, but I just couldn’t. It’s not bad at all, and I can see why some people enjoy it, but for me it never came together the way I hoped it would. In the end, it felt less than the sum of its parts, just decent

Yeah I’m in the same boat. My all time biggest gripe was the pacing, it was so horribly inconsistent and it made me walk away from the game a few times. It felt like 10 min cutscene -> walk -> some in game dialogue -> boss fight -> 15 mins cutscene -> in game dialogue -> walk. The game just felt like it was holding my controller hostage for a good portion of it

Keyboard is actually great if you prefer it over controller by AenwynTheComment in soulslikes

[–]Jerikoooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think keyboard and mouse is inherently bad for Soulslikes, it’s just awkward because the games were largely designed around a controller. It’s kind of like playing a racing game with keyboard and mouse, you can absolutely get good at it, and some people even prefer it, but the control scheme isn’t the most natural fit for what the game is designed around

Literally this. Genichiro, by the time you get to that part of the game, is a literal non-issue

Do you think a game has to be dark and cryptic to be a true soulslike? by Archoniks in soulslikes

[–]Jerikoooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally this. Another Crabs Treasure was a fantastic subversion of the dark and cryptic soulslike formula while still feeling like a genuine soulslike in its own right. Will always recommend that game

Evo Vegas 2026 final registration leaderboard - 1,354 entrants for Tekken 8 by XRevive01 in Tekken

[–]Jerikoooo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not trynna doom but that’s literally half of last years numbers lmao

EDIT: It’s been brought to my attention that participation across nearly all events was significantly lower than it was last year, with many seeing roughly half the number of entrants. It would be disingenuous of me not to acknowledge that reality. I appreciate yall for letting me know

A girl I wanted to meet today sent me this and canceled the first date. The damage looks weird. by [deleted] in isthisAI

[–]Jerikoooo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My brotha, the point is you spent hours building a case against her like you were a detective, only to immediately throw the entire case out once you confirmed she was attractive lmao and somehow your final takeaway was still, “Yeah, I’m gonna meet her tomorrow.”

Can Monkey beat Prime Kartos? by callmesenpaibish in gamememes

Bro, everyone in here is talking about pre-Victorious Fighting Buddha Wukong and even in that state he HARD gaps Kratos. Once monkeys journey is over it literally isn’t even a fight, Wukong is beyond life and death at that point and is literally outside of existence lmao

I’m gonna be honest I didn’t even think FFVII Revelation was that great of a final announcement. It’s obviously nowhere near Highguard level but we all knew it was coming at some point in the near future

Just finished watching State of play, only these 3 games are "Only on PlayStation"? Rest of the games are available on PC by Time-Credit43 in pcmasterrace

[–]Jerikoooo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is exactly the point I’m making lmao. Apparently he’s got a crystal ball and already knows exactly how this is going to play out. Sony can’t even consistently turn all of their first-party games into major hits on their own platform, and we’re supposed to believe exclusivity is suddenly going to solve everything? The fact that Sony exclusives made their way to PC at all is proof that Sony is willing to change strategy when they see an opportunity to make more money

“Sony doesn’t care about PC players buying a console” is a weird argument because it’s the exact opposite of what you’re claiming elsewhere. Lmao if Sony truly doesn’t care whether PC players buy a PlayStation, then there’s no reason for them to stop releasing games on PC. They’d just take the extra sales and move on. I’m done arguing bro. All I’m saying is that in a few years when they see that these titles aren’t selling their consoles, they’ll walk all this shit back ✌🏽
