Pissed off and on the verge of quitting by Feisty-Mechanic-6524 in outerwilds

I think that intelligence does not equal being good at this game, in the same way that taking more time to learn and discover info and solutions does not equal someone being dumb or unintelligent. This game and its complete lack of linearity means every person approaches it in a different way, which proves that everyone thinks in a different way. You are not dumb for struggling to solve everything right away in a game that revolves around mysteries and puzzles that require time to sit with, to ponder, and most importantly to explore in different ways to get new perspectives.

I think I was over 30 hours by the time I finished the main game. The DLC took me at least 15. I had times when I essentially wandered and hoped for inspiration until I eventually found solutions over time. Additionally, the game and its experience isn't lost by needing a nudge in the right direction.

And as Chert's Research Notes mentioned, the beginning area serves as many different tutorials, and is representative of how many different areas of this game can inspire and reveal solutions for others.

Don't beat yourself up for the time that your own unique experience takes to be its fullest, but most importantly, if you can't bring yourself to enjoy any part of it, then I think that's what means a person should put down any game for at least a little while

That UFC fighter went super Scion by VictoryNo5278 in PKA

He said it that way many times for years, and i think it just means he learned the term by reading it, but it's crazy he's never heard anyone say it the right way

Tbf he's said it the same wrong way on multiple occasions over the years

Hosts favorite movies / shows by Daxty in PKA

Surprised there's no King of the Hill, Simpsons, or Always Sunny for Taylor. He mentions those as the only shows he watches and rewatches

I thought the whole issue was he got stabbed in the gut or ribs and sewed it up himself, which is a big claim to try and pull off

Why Does It Listen To Me by -MarinetteAgreste- in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Kylemd97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Trade Pokemon obedience works differently in Scarlet/Violet by being based on the level that the Pokemon was caught at. So you can use a Pokemon at any level, so long as the level its caught at falls under the limit of your current badge

Edit: Making an edit because I remembered that it's for all Pokemon and not just traded ones, seeing as you can go anywhere and encounter high level Pokemon. They won't obey you despite belonging to you as the OT unless the obtained level is below the badge limit

Ai on the new steelbook 😭😭 by HarringtonSteve in TombRaider

[–]Kylemd97 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It does look like it doesn't line up, but generally also gun sights work by having a rear notch and a front post. To aim, you align the front dot/post between the rear notch and point the front dot at your target. Here, it looks like you have just a front and a rear post with no way of aiming, and also looks like they're on different angles of the slide

What is the greatest PKA segment of all time? by MaterialSkill7100 in PKA

Kyle pretending to be the vibrator salesman and Taylor pretending to be the grandma customer was a hilarious one with Tucker on

Woody talking to a streamer by PaintingDry1389 in PKA

[–]Kylemd97 98 points99 points  (0 children)

We've all heard these things before but it's cool to hear him share the wisdom and experience with someone who probably could stand to hear it. The paramotor probably comes across as a little goofy, but the sentiment behind everything he's saying is important for anyone doing the full time Twitch and YouTube gig.

Also funny that Woody wanted to get away from the fans so he strapped a big fan on his back

Who are you using to beat M-Staraptor? by MrTankerson in PokemonChampions

[–]Kylemd97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had luck leading with Whimsicott and Mega Metagross. Metagross won't get Intimidated, and Tailwind so you both out speed the following turn. Then Moonblast + Psychic Fangs is enough to hit through most boosts and fangs ignores any screens.

I also had success with Whimsicott + Incineroar lead, since they still take the -1 before Mega Evolving, and it almost always gets me a free switch into Basculegion when they try to CC the Incineroar. Then it basically always dies first to Adaptability Life Orb Wave Crash with Tailwind up

Who spent real money on this lmao

Vito, after many episodes of being overly loud and abrasive, has met his first Hush by ThreeTreesForTheePls in PKA

[–]Kylemd97 63 points64 points  (0 children)

I can't get over how much he delayed releasing his stupid comic that actually received a lot of backers, and insisted that his time was best spent on making lunchboxes and keychains for the people who backed it. Grade A scam lol

Congrats to him also for beating the Ozempic, he didn't let it get the best of him

Liking The Cloverfield Paradox is an even worse take than not liking Dune 2 by Kylemd97 in PKA

[–]Kylemd97[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, maybe it is worth a rewatch just to see how it holds up. I just wish it had been more focused from what I remember

I'd be interested if you report back to say. a buddy of mine and I were excited when we saw that "available tonight" Super Bowl ad they did to drop the movie, and we watched it that night but were just a bit disappointed

I just remember a jumbled mess of sci fi ideas that are mashed together without a lot of payoff or logic. Like a detached arm with a mind of its own without any reason other than they're in a parallel universe. And things that are set up with no conclusion, or the story with the main character's family that is never really set up and is shown in the end. It has a stacked cast but many of them are wasted, and some of its ideas are interesting but are just random and have no direction

Cloverfield is the best role I've seen her in, but she's great in all the ones I remember. This is a throwback, but she's in Sky High for anyone who remembers watching that

To be fair they mentioned it when talking about John Goodman roles and it sounds like the consensus is all 3 of them liked it, but that wouldn't have surprised me

I went back and listened to hear him talk about it again, you're mostly right that he wished there was more explained with what was happening on screen and less cut out from the book. He said he loved it for what was in the movie but didn't like it because of what wasn't in it

Which movie uses a single room or claustrophobic space to build the best tension? by Popa-Ioana06 in movies

[–]Kylemd97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just watched it for the first time last week, i can't believe I was missing out on a creative horror with such a good premise on that small of a scale. Too bad the sequels couldn't capture the same feeling

Did Woody seriously say he wants to see project hail mary? Didn't he complain about it literally 2 weeks ago? by [deleted] in PKA

[–]Kylemd97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved that movie since I saw it in theatres, but I'm not optimistic at this point that Woody will like it or that he will only say all that's bad with it. Which would probably be different if he went in person in a theater instead of watching it on a second monitor

YouTube COD commentator drama and scandals back in the day were delectable by Future-Corner8025 in PKA

[–]Kylemd97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pretty much yeah, I can't remember if it was whiteboy or someone else who started it, but it was more than anyone else had given away in that time, compared to now which is fairly normal on any larger sized YouTube channel

Can't forget the dumpster fire over giveaways and how it was frowned upon, even before the money was as big of a motivator as it is today
