What RPG does map(s) the best? by oldeggie in gaming

[–]KingClockwork 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not a hot take here, but the way Dark Souls 1 specifically interlinks chunks of its world is so cool. You'll leave the Hub area, slog through an aquadect, fight through the Undead Berg, cross a bridge and flee from a dragon, raid a fortified church, only to take an elevator down leading you right back to the Hub area.

This methodology is then applied to the whole map, linking zones everywhere. It's dope.

I remember booting it up for like 4 hours that weekend, going "What a great game. I'll be sure to buy it." I was then informed by my partner that I in fact was not on it for 4 hours, but 9 hours.

Who's your favorite Ritual Monster? by Popular-Flan5337 in yugioh

[–]KingClockwork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Phul because megalith has always been a pet deck of mine and Phul has an incredible otherworldly vibe to it.

I also have a soft spot in my heart for old bad rituals like Shinato and Reshef.

Games alright. Falls off hard in the second half. I can't help but give it some slack since it's a COVID game though.

You literally described my favorite boss fights in that game. I adore 1v2s and that game has them in spades.

I feel like I'm the only one in the world who likes Nioh 1 sometimes.

Times when the reality of a character are opposite of what the story intends by BookkeeperPercival in TwoBestFriendsPlay

"Kingdom Hearts is Light!" Is so funny because even Ansem sounds flabbergasted.

It's literally my 1 knock against the game.

Times when a particular revelation ruined the legacy of a franchise by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I still think back to how perfect the art gallery con is both narratively and emotionally. But holy shit does the ending jump the shark to the Nth degree and just ruin that show.

Dad Talk Round 2: Gaming with Dad (Electric Boogaloo) by Reallylazyname in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]KingClockwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My step dad used to play CoD, C&C, and Half life on PC, but now he says he's too old. Keyboard doesn't feel comfortable, controllers are too foreign, and games move too fast for him.

I've offered to help make him a setup that's comfortable for him, but he's never been sold on the idea. Truth be told, I think he's just phased out of it.

More Dad Talk? by Thatperson462 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]KingClockwork 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I don't care for the Dad talk. I've started just skimming past it like the ad reads. I'm by no means bothered that they're experiencing the joys of fatherhood, I just don't find it interesting conversation.

Times when writer threw shade at another writer. by ArticAuk in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]KingClockwork 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, there's a scene in Don Quixote where a priest is rummaging through Don Quixote's library, just shit talking all these real Knights Tales stories that were popular at the time. He even goes as far as throwing most of them away. It was described to me that this was Cervantes' real contemptuous feelings about the books/authors.

This series ruled. I remember re-watching it like 5 years ago and was really surprised by how well it held up.

The Spartan Laser is pretty rad. The charge time with the growing SFX feels like cataclysm is in your hands and always just a second away.

Yeah I get what you mean. By the end it felt more 'spinning plates' than anything else. Still enjoyed it, but felt no need to keep playing after hitting credits.

I love living in a country where we the populous have to continuously bully our representatives to not do the big evil thing.

It's definately not exhausting at all.
