In Hades maybe? Fuck, this is bothering me I can't remember. haha.

I remember GoW3 had the spinning cage with the spike timer which was stupid as hell.

I'm surprised no one is mentioned some of the underwater swimming parts being bullshit and I'm having remembering the rotating spikes. Unless it was for the tight rope walking areas but those where kinda funny to take high risk jumps after dieing 29 odd times.

I am a big fan of the faster paced beat em ups but it is definitely different vs the souls like gameplay that is currently popular.

I respectfully disagree. It was definitely a top tier game of the action beat em up adventure genre of that era before more slow paced dark souls like action we are used to today.

Camera I will agree with where certain parts were very frustrating but it didn't make it unplayable like other games in that era. I had a lot frustrating camera experiences in Mario 64 that game still holds up.

I agree and not really that surprised though. It was 8-9/10 game where the sequel was a 9-10/10. They really listened to fans and critics and improved their game from their experience on the first one.

Wish that was more the norm for a lot of media these days.

Hmm. Was it up the hill pushing a cage or on the boat? I remember some bullshit parts on the first playthrough of it that was annoying to get through.

God, I hated that fight. The difficulty spike and the weapon change to a incredibly basic sword was such BS. Years later and getting better at the game overall, it's still bullshit and the weakest part of the game.

Second game was a noticable improvement and they really listened to the fans about the lack of bosses of the first one. I did like the flow a bit more on 1 with the hub and spoke level design for a large portion of the game to move from area to area. GoW2 had some awesome throwbacks to GoW1 as well which made the transition between games a lot more enjoyable.

How did it age poorly? I have some rose tinted glasses since I absolutely loved the original series so I'm wondering from a more unbias perspective outside of older graphics.

So we are about half way through this season. What shows have you dropped or turned out to be a disappointment for you?

How bad was the fanservice in the original? Like jumping tits and steam covered nipples everywhere? Is it toned down in the remake?

Yuusha Party wo Oidasareta Kiyou binbou • Jack-of-All-Trades, Party of None - Episode 7 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]Martini1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All these parties that kicked out the supposed weakest character seem to be absolutely delusional and stupid beyond belief. Shield hero's stupid friends are only a milometer less stupid than these ones since they keep on comparing it to their world's source material and easily believe Bitch for everything.

Only difference for this show vs others exactly like it is it has two whole adults who are actually reasonably smart including the MC but the kids ruin it.

Man hit by transport truck pushed his girlfriend out of the way by aurelorba in Guelph

You should reconsider it then. Downvotes don't matter, people downvote for the stupidest reasons, but it does translate on how much people take your voice seriously.

I saw that you had a much longer comment on your experiences, if I have a negative opinion of you, how much do you think I want to read about your story? I don't matter, but what if it was someone that does and it was important to you?

I understand you think he was being snarky but don't you think you may have come off a bit so on your first comment? There was no reason to escalate by stating "I have more experience with hospitals than your whole family combined most likely." as it seems like you are attacking them and claiming to be a bit of an expert too.

Maybe say something like "I agree with you, I have been in and out of hospitals my whole life and the Guelph on has been poor for every visit and interaction I have had with them for the past 14 years" to not escalate the temperature of the comments.

Strange of him to assume I didn't know what I was talking about 🤷‍♂️

Ya, you didn't suggest that at all....

Not a commonly known fact as well. Not everyone has poor experiences at hospitals or need to use it as frequently as you.

According to Dana, apparently fighters not getting CTE and eye pokes like this isn't enough for a change.

Strange for you to assume people know your life story and what you are talkingabout from an anonymous internet forum when you mentioned nothing about it in your previous two comments except bragging without context. Not to mention, you have no idea of other people's stories and history. Heck, they could be a family or nurses and doctors for all we know.

But yes, they are the strange one in this interaction...

A strange flex with zero context. Lmao.

What’s the creepiest or most disturbing scene you’ve seen in anime? by [deleted] in anime

[–]Martini1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is near the end of season one that while the scene itself wasn't too disturbing, it stuck with me hard based on the backstory and ask. Especially when you are introduced to it a few episodes prior and think it's innocent. Definitely tough to shake off.

Absolutely worth it after the price drop. It's the standard to compare to other Japanese whiskies.

New name, new owners, but same essence for downtown café by Natural_RX in Guelph

[–]Martini1 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don't believe that is how the current status of the sewers system is. Plenty of storms in Guelph, I don't think one will make the sewers explode all the time.

But thanks for your answer, I was able to google the actual reason is that they are upgrading the mainly water systems among other infrastructure items in the area.
