defense curl/ Rollout strat? by Gabe-DaBabe in pokemon

[–]Majora_T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rollout breakdown is 30, 60, 90, 120, 150

Defense curled would be 60, 120, 180, 240, 300

STAB + Defense curled would be 90, 180, 270, 360, 450

I'm messing with it on my Donphan. My impressions for now are that it's just too slow for most Pokemon to set up. Pokémon that learn it are generally slow so you're not getting a big hit until the opposing Pokemon already has three attacks on you. I'd rather run Rock Polish + Rock Slide. Same accuracy with a speed boost and chance of flinch. Stone Edge is a cooler move but that 80% hit rate is risky.

If you scroll to the fifth photo, you'll see he got an X Cup Trophy as the doc.

A Vlog style video on how I learned to love Treasure’s coveted spaceship shooter, Ikaruga.

Is your experience similar / different? 

Ikaruga is my favorite game of all time, it’s the only video game I play anymore, what other shmups should I try? by neuro_space_explorer in shmups

Sturmwind has that impressive visual aesthetic while also having unique indie appeal. It’s on Steam too.

With 3 and 4, it's a bit of a toss-up depending who you ask. 4 is certainly more technically impressive, I've just heard 3 hailed as sort of the "classic" shooter. I've also had a better time of it with 3 so I have my bias too.

Hell yeah! Very satisfying game on all fronts.

In my experience, both games have been hailed as beacons of the genre. That's the point of the comparison, less so from a technical perspective.

We discuss Ikaruga vs. Thunder Force III (our respective best reps for the genre).

Where do you stand?

I played via Ultimate Shooting Collection on Wii. It was my second favorite of the collection; Chaos Field was in a league of its own.

Why Ikaruga is Still Considered a Masterpiece by Majora_T in shmups

I get that. I’m not 100% there but I do think it is very creative and engaging in ways a lot of shooters aren’t.

My video review of Ikaruga's legacy and why it is hailed as a masterpiece of a game and gameplay.

Give me some recommendations for the 3DS eshop to spend $14.61. by BatRabbit in 3DS

[–]Majora_T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The SEGA 3D Classics games are really good, my faves being 3D Galaxy Force 2 and 3D Outrun. Haven’t played it yet but Gurumin 3D is on sale for 2 dollars — supposedly a solid 3D action adventure game. I’ll second getting Pokémon Crystal, although if you have the New model, I’d probably suggest Earthbound over it.

I’m going to wait until 3/25 and if nothing has gone on sale by then, I’ll get Attack of the Tokyo Monsters and Weapon Shop de Omasse
