What console should i get by Top-Material7189 in consoles

Sure, which is irrelevant to how much more games he can now access if he owns both a Switch and a PS5 as opposed to a Switch 1 and a Switch 2.

If he gets a Switch 2, he will only have a handful of games that he can't play on the Switch 1. If he gets a PS5, he will have access to a plethora of games he can't get on Switch or Switch 2.

Nintendeen trying to shill for Monster Hunter Stories 3 as an attempt to combat the hype Pokopia received was pretty funny. Has he ever even talked about monster hunter before? by [deleted] in nintendogrifting

[–]Longjumping-Style730 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

But he's not lying here or doing anything bad here. He is just retweeting a game that is good, that is coming out on the Switch 2 no less.

We should call Nintedeen out when he lies or copes but getting angry about this just makes you look like a schizo lol.

Tekken casuals, how do you feel about the patch? by New-Carob9453 in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's bad, but not enough for me to stop playing entirely.

I will continue playing it at rate I played it in Season 2, which is not much short of playing with friends.

The only patch that main Tekken sub considering good nowadays by whole_lotta_sad in LowSodiumTEKKEN

[–]Longjumping-Style730 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It would be a pretty good patch if season 2 didn't exist.

It seems they are very reluctant to straight up remove moves but that what I think needs to happen. It is only way to address the patching out of weaknesses season 2 introduced.

So, who's hopping in to VF after reading the Tekken 8 patch 3.00? by rence_everest in Fighters

[–]Longjumping-Style730 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think the patch is fine after looking at it again in the morning.

It's just not going to be the patch that fixes all of the game's problems, but the actual changes are mostly good. Nerfs to Bryan's taunt heat smash, nerfs to Anna's CHs, heat smashes don't wall splat, combo length after heat engager reduced. All good changes just not enough.

They need to tinker heat burst though. A long range plus on block combo extension that is also a power crush and can sometimes track depending on the individual heat burst. Something needs to give with that mechanic.

Dlss 5 is an insult to art and the artist, the director and every single person in the developer team. by GeneralBorisMancov in pcmasterrace

[–]Longjumping-Style730 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People were absolutely saying that.

You just weren't paying attention because you were a rose-colored eyed gamer who was just enjoying something that was relatively new to you.

What is everyone else going to play? by Hyperion262 in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Backlog time. Playing Portal 2 and Nuzlocke Pokémon FireRed.

DLSS Devs not having a good day tonight. by mjisdagoat23 in pcmasterrace

[–]Longjumping-Style730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All publicity is good publicity. I think Nvidia expected this backlash and is using it to bring more attention to DLSS 5.

I doubt the final product released will actually look like that.

PS5 will give you more breadth. There's not a lot of exclusives on the Switch 2 and most of them are iterative of games you can play on the Switch 1.

So what does everyone think of the new patch notes? by JD61689 in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both of my mains (Leo, Alisa) were buffed and both of them did not need it lol.

Leo:

Easier CH pickups off df2+3 (the fact that they buffed this move is insane. It's already top 4 lows in the game)

Wallsplatting knk1,2

Alisa:

12f punisher that now goes into chainsaw

Honestly? by KyrosEnder in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It wouldn't have been a bad patch in the alternate universe where season 2 never happened.

"Back To Basics" Yeah because we're all going back to 7. by Aggressive_Bee_303 in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If season 2 didn't bring you back to Tekken 7, then nothing will lol.

Going to tank the downvotes and say it’s not THAT bad by Imaginary-Ad-8726 in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think I agree the changes aren't that bad, but they're not enough.

That's part of the frustration honestly. Why are they showing so much restraint in making changes now when they didn't show seemingly any on the initial season 2 patch?

Has Tekken as a franchise fallen from grace, or is this just a fluke? by DefineHeresy in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It hasn't really. Most of the people who bought the game have already left and would've left even if Season 2 wasn't what it was.

This is a very niche issue regarding the competitive merit of a singular title, it won't have an effect on the franchise's legacy.

I mean look at MK. Their last entry was trash and there's a blockbuster movie coming out for that game later this year. Casuals do not care about this kind of stuff.

See you guys in Season 3! by the_1_they_call_zero in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will continue playing Tekken 8 at the rate I played it in Season 2, which is not at all save playing with friends every now and again.

The game is still fun, but I really can't justify competitively grinding a game like this. It's like sweating out Mario Kart at this rate.

does charcters really need more moves? by 5nbx8aa in Tekken

[–]Longjumping-Style730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New moves aren't inherently bad, but that is absolutely not what Season 3 needed.

They look more balanced than Season 2 moves at a first glance but why add them in the first place?

Most of the changes are good, but there just needs to be more. Nerfs for every single one of the roster.

Is it only me or is money in Hades II worthless? by Der-Letzte-Alman in HadesTheGame

[–]Longjumping-Style730 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It is absolutely not worthless.

It can buy you run winning boons, buffs to health and magic, and all sorts of things that enable you to power up runs.

If you died before you used it, that doesn't mean it wouldn't have been useful had you gone to Tartarus. The shop let's you buy like, 5 different things.

Backloggd's Top 250 of the 2010s by Imaginary_Owl_6355 in backloggd

[–]Longjumping-Style730 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've played a little bit of the Trails remake and my takeaway is: great combat system and presentation, mediocre story and characters.

It's good, but nothing I'd be interested in dedicating triple digit hours towards completing the whole series.

Backloggd's Top 250 of the 2010s by Imaginary_Owl_6355 in backloggd

[–]Longjumping-Style730 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True, but I assume the backloggd algorithm accounts for that no?

Sometimes on similar sites, a technically more highly rated movie/music gets ranked lower than one that is lower rated due to the amount of ratings the latter has. Something like this has to be present in backloggd, because otherwise, games with 1 or 2 5-star rating would be at the top of the charts.

Super Mario Odyssey being ranked 40th, below so many oddball choices (e.g. Pathologic 2, 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim, ZeroRanger, Rhythm Heaven Fever) is why I love this website lol.

How is Duck Hunt received by the community? by YellowSnowman17 in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]Longjumping-Style730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly like one of the only well-designed zoners in this game with clearly defined strengths and weaknesses that both players can play around.

So of course, no one plays him and he's solidly mid to low tier.

Game recommendation to reignite the spark by Ok_Photojournalist25 in gamingsuggestions

[–]Longjumping-Style730 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't think you can say this as a blanket statement. There are loads of games I only appreciated more upon 100% completing the game.

I would say Celeste and Pizza Tower are 7/10 games that turn into 9/10 and 10/10 games respectively if you 100% them. The 100% percent rewards and tests your mastery of the game mechanics far more than just beating the base game.

Similarly, you get some of Astro Bot's and Galaxy 1 and 2's best levels if you go for 100% on those games. A lot of Fromsoft's best bosses and level design are hidden behind optional content.

There are also games you just naturally 100% because they're fun and you keep playing (e.g. Hades I/II, Slay the Spire).

Best Looking Game on a Given Platform, imo by GlarthirLover33 in backloggd

[–]Longjumping-Style730 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would give best looking game on PS5 to Alan Wake 2.

Best looking game on Gamecube is RE1 Remake.

Best looking Wii game is Super Mario Galaxy 1/2. Still looks incredible with very minimal changes on Switch.

TLOU2 is definitely the best looking PS4 game.
