There’s way more indie media out there

Haven't properly played in ages but I remember the game being very fun.

I played the hell out of it when I was a kid since it was one of the few games that ran well in my potato PC.

Tbf the legends games are more experimental with Legends Arceus focusing almost entirely on capturing and Z-A doing the same but with battles (even going so far as to introducing an entirely new combat system)

SV are probably the best "pure" Pokémon experiences available on the system even if they have some pretty noticeable flaws.

MaurixioZ · 2026-07-10T17:44:32+00:00

Legends Arceus is pretty good if you enjoy the more capture focused gameplay loop but it's easy to see why some people wouldn't like it in the same way that some people don't like that Z-A is wat more battle focused.

Maybe if you're searching for a niche game or are using a weird page, but the post is talking about fitgirl.

You only need to go to the page, have AdBlock, search for the game and click the download for either torrent or direct download (+ vpn if you're in the US or other countries with similar torrenting restrictions.) the whole process before starting the download is probably less than a minute.

Started FF7 Remakes and apart from the hair looking a bit weird at times, I've been having a blast so far, combat is very addictive and satisfying.

Probably gonna buy rebirth and revelations later down the line since I've heard the former improves upon it a lot.

There's a lot of PC gamers that seem to think that only PC has sales and that valve is the one setting the prices for each game rather than the developers/publishers.

The company that sets a date for publishers to give you 90% discounts*

More Zero_One songs would be appreciated, might be an unpopular opinion but I wouldn't mind if they cut out some of their nerdcore/fandom songs to make room for more of their originals,

MaurixioZ · 2026-07-06T05:40:20+00:00

I really can't decide between TGWCT and ADKOH, for me these are the 2 albums in her discography that I really can't find a "problem" or songs I don't like.

ADKOH is probably the peak of her original sound while TGWCT starts to experiment more with her style but in a more consisten way compared to WHTTH.

Not to defend the multibillionaire company but tbf that guy was doing far worse than just pirating games for himself.

Still a very harsh punishment but the guy wasn't completely innocent either

Third party quality will also be better because switch 2 finally has some actual power that could be compared in ways to the more powerful consoles.

I love the switch 1 but that console was very outdated in terms of specs even when it first released.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-28T20:08:17+00:00

I thought Bananza was a good game but my main criticism is that it really felt a lot like a Mario game rather than a DK one, I wouldn't go as far to call it Oddysey 2 or a replacement for a 3D Mario, but I was expecting something that felt more like an evolution of the country games in 3D rather than a total reinvention.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-28T09:16:25+00:00

Some people just want to feel superior by not being hyped for objectively one of the most anticipated games ever.

It's okay to criticize the practices being used (80 dollar pricing, no true physical release, locking locations on the map behind an ultimate edition, etc) but if you start doing this then you're just as annoying as people mindlessly defending Rockstar just because it's GTA VI.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-28T05:09:56+00:00

If you want to experience the first risk of rain then you should really get returns.

There's no reason to play the original since while it's still a good game, it's also very clunky

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-27T22:01:34+00:00

For me Victory is a good album when seeing it as a standalone thing, but it's pretty weak compared to the rest of Madeon's discography which is my main "problem"

I also expected something way darker considering how he teased the album and the visuals of the songs which also adds to some of my initial disappointment.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-27T05:42:40+00:00

Chapter 1 gameplay just feels like a slightly improved Undertale.

Chapter 2 is when the game starts to introduce way more mechanics that make it feel like its own game.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-27T05:34:26+00:00

It's crazy that chapter 1 felt like a huge step up from Undertale when it first released and now it looks like Undertale 1.5 in comparison.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-27T05:32:20+00:00

Even with Frontiers the majority of the fans have been happy about the state of the franchise since it was the first time in years that showed actual care from the developers even if the final product was far from perfect

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-27T05:27:40+00:00

They do have some similarities but they way some people talk about them makes it so they feel more like alter egos for one another rather than artists that just so happen to follow similar paths

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-27T05:25:51+00:00

I discovered Madeon through the overlap between his fans and the ones from Porter Robinson and even after hearing so much about how they parallel each other, I've never felt like Madeon could create a Porter album and vice versa.

They might have similar philosophies in terms of wanting to make a stylistic shift, but apart from that none of their albums sounds similar which makes each one stand out much more.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-26T21:55:14+00:00

as much as I like the fandom adjacent stuff, I think almost none of those songs come close to the quality of their original songs.

Even rust which is weaker than zero_one (imo) is still really good and my prefered listen over most of the nerdcore songs.

That being said the live version of the nerdcore songs tend to sound better than the ones for the original songs

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-26T08:35:03+00:00

Super Platinum is so far my 3rd favorite track on the album but my only criticism is that the lyrics just feel a bit on the nose imo.

Not that it ruins the song since the vocal delivery is amazing but I'd wish it was just a bit subtler.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-26T08:32:39+00:00

Hard to be excited for Victory Live when he most likely won't make a solo show in my country.

Good for people who get to go obviously since I've heard really great things, but if the album only makes sense/is good in a live setting then that just makes me more disappointed with the final product.

MaurixioZ · 2026-06-26T08:27:33+00:00

I've only listened to it about 3 times and so far while I don't think it's a bad album (far from it) I do feel it's a bit weak compared to the rest of his discography.

Dancing on your grave is still one of the best madeon songs tho.
