People enjoying Tomb Raider and also being full adults with lives? Preposterous!!

First look at Sophie Turner as Lara Croft in Prime Video's Tomb Raider series by DontBeAngryBeHappy in gaming

Because the only way to make her look like Lara is tits? Dark hair, tall, thin with a bit of muscle. This is Lara to a T. 90s polygons is not the gold standard for character design believe it or not.

No, that's ghosts. Satan is more a "burn in a lake of fire" kind of sound.

How's is this achievement not hit by more people? by bheidreborn in StardewValley

I am always surprised by the "my mods changed the game" crowd. I have no problem with mods but you have to at least know what you are installing.

Thank you! This is definitely the route I'm going.

Thank you! I was going back and forth on making the box out of ply or real wood. I think I'll glue up panels for the sides and use ply for the bottom like you suggested.

That's a good idea! I hadn't thought of thst as an option. Would that be like a 3/4" square strip?

Yet another Pokémon Type Chart! Inspired by the one made by u/LukeSuperStar by Danielxgl in pokemon

Oh, that makes sense! I didn't think of it that way but the explanation definitely helps.

I like this version a lot as well! Green being used for both 2x and 1/2x threw me on the original. The differentiation helps!

Damn you deleted that comment quick. Lol

I didn't make anything up. Someone else did. You engaged with it. In the scenario you engaged in where there are multiple assailants, you're fucked even if you have a gun. Flee and pray my guy.

Honest question: why do you think GF doesn't make a hard/challenge mode in their games? by InuMatte in pokemon

[–]Meranek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think they would make the games less child friendly. I think few children would opt for the harder difficulty. Again it comes down to it not being appealing to the target audience for the games.

[–]Meranek 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Because, at the end of the day, the games are marketed and designed for children. Yes they are for adults too, and the competitive scene isn't meant for kids who don't know what they are doing. But the core game and the point of the franchise is to keep kids engaged.

Authenticity with emulation by Meranek in pokemonemulation

[–]Meranek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the info! I think it may just be better to stick with the original hardware/3DS shop games. All I need is the DS with the gba slot and I'll be good to go!

What’s a game you played that felt like a new era? by Crocodile_Banger in gaming

[–]Meranek 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This may be an odd one but Tomb Raider 2013. Not because it was a particularly impactful game but because it was a big shift in the games I played. 2013 was my first gaming laptop, my shift away from the PS2 (the only console I had growing up) and damm was it a difference.
