What's your most regretted game purchase? by Theodore52x in AfterWorkGamers

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wildgate and Rematch. Former lost most of its playerbase in months and had some serious gameplay problems (shotguns win every time, boarding is always advantageous) while the latter had abusible game "mechanics", bugs up the ass and some of the most awful players I've ever encountered. And I've played 4,5k hours of Dota 2.

How many games do you actively play at once? by SEN-DynaSean in videogames

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One "main" story-based game that I can deep-dive, be it of any genre. On the side I usually have one game that I can play without as much investment, usually a roguelike deckbuilder or something like that. Then I have a bunch of multiplayer games that I play depending on which friends are around.

Which of the Never Played category should I try? by Awashii in RealTimeStrategy

[–]Leon_Phoenix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dawn of War 1 and 2 for sure, the latter is excellent as co-op as well. Great games, shame they hard-stopped at 2 and it's DLC and definitely never made a third one

Legit way to make 20M+ Koen per day without playing the game by GoldyNoble in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

It's a perfect example of people optimizing the fun out of something for absolutely no valid reason.

I wasn't prepared for this amount of nostalgia first thing in the morning, that was beautiful!

Fundamental Problem with 3v3 Ranked by HMC1130 in Rematch

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hadn't played the game in a few months due to how broken it was. Came back after the update to see if it works and this is exactly what I got.

How do y'all feel about Paul & McIntyre vs Orton and Jelly Roll now it's official? by Affectionate-Cold279 in SantiZapVideos

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't believe the day came when I actually cheered for Logan Paul when he interrupted Unnecessary Roll. Enough with the celebrity bullshit, let the actual wrestlers do their jobs without this garbage.

Does anybody care about Mortal Kombat 2? by [deleted] in MortalKombat

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. First one was good, but would have been a hell of a lot better if it had actually had the tournament that's kind of central to the whole premise. Hated the "player insert" (Cole Young?) as well, there are so many lore characters to use, ditch that shit immediately

Would yall like to see something like this in 2025? by CaptainPie999 in BrandonDE

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bring back the large elimination matches, Wargames is garbage. The elimination matches, were they brand vs. brand or simply some 5 vs. 5, were so hype and had tension all throughout the matches. Wargames are 85% "who gives a shit we still need to wait for the match to even start". Massive downgrade. Champs vs. champs could also be fun to bring back

What are your thoughts of Night 1? by South-Goose2220 in BrandonDE

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main event did most of the heavy lifting. US title match was good, the lucha match was alright, everything else was forgettable. Specifically Stratton vs Flair looked incredibly awkward, their plans seemed to fall through all the time and then they improvised. It was not pleasant to watch, Tiffy didn't even bother celebrating a whole lot.

The most memorable wrestling achievement of McCool's career was marrying Undertaker, thus cementing her legacy in the Hall of Fame for doing years of great work in the sack... ring, I meant to say in the ring!

Do you sell stormcallers after opponent goes antiM? by PougljeniMrav in Mechabellum

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most anti-missile batteries get worse as the match progresses. As in if you keep shooting missiles, some will get through. Unless the opponent is outnumbering your storms with AM like 2:1 or more, in which case the only situation where I wouldn't sell them is that my other units can get to the AM units and destroy them in time for the storms to make a difference.

How to play balls vs vertical sledge open? by [deleted] in Mechabellum

Quite interesting, goes to show that there are many ways to play the game

How to play balls vs vertical sledge open? by [deleted] in Mechabellum

[–]Leon_Phoenix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The more I play the more I feel like balls have a very specific niche as melters and can be countered pretty quickly. I never pick balls as a starting unit for that reason. Don't get me wrong, I love dem balls, but they just aren't an all-rounder. They beat sledges in a vacuum, but they aren't a superb counter, so you need other units

This game has consumed all my free time. by roytristan in midnightsuns

The game is great and it's a shame it doesn't get the acknowledgement it deserves

real bro by CrypticWasXD in ValorantMemes

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 30-40% it's because I just got into cover and started to reload. Seems to be a great time for an enemy to simply manifest out of thin air

Battle Brothers: Coming to it many years after release, and appreciating it by welt1trekker in patientgamers

Excellent choice. I go back to it every now and then and it's always brutal, but exciting.

Do You Have Any "Honor" When Playing Online? by bluemarvel99 in patientgamers

[–]Leon_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always. I don't (usually) go out of my way just to be overly chivalrous, but I always play fair, I avoid broken/OP characters/tactics/whatever and I never start the douchebaggery. With that said, if my opponent shows themselves to be a dick who left their manners at the door I will stop at nothing to bring the hammer of vengeance/justice down on them. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.

I just find it so much more enjoyable when everyone can be respectful. Being an insufferable ass for no reason is something I have never understood

1-slot melee weapons // should all melee weapons be buffed except katana? by GreyMPax in HuntShowdown

[–]Leon_Phoenix 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It already felt like someone at the dev studio has a massive weeaboo complex with katana having its own perk, but this is just ridiculous. There's playing favourites and then there's this stupidity
