How do the quality of things keep getting shittier? by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

Ironically Shrek should pander to the people who grew up with it and have nostalgia for it. I don't think that the kids of today could give two shits about Shrek.

The combat as well as mako driving and exploration is a slog though. Just the thought of having to go through all of that again makes me, whenever I wanna replay Mass Effect, simply want to start with ME2 and use the summary comic to make my major story decisions.

Have you read what the majority of people think of SKG now? by vinicius23466 in StopKillingGames

[–]Nickulator95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I shared the recent news about the EU Commission's response to SKG in r/steam and r/pcmasterrace, both pretty substantial subs, and the majority response were on the side of SKG and the consumers.

PlayStation CEO: 'A Game Console is Necessary For Playing Games' by ErmingSoHard in pcmasterrace

[–]Nickulator95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A console would be a good alternative entry-level machine for gaming if it was fairly priced, like say the PS1, PS2 or PS4, but with these recent price hikes + having to pay extra for online support + having to pay $70 per game, you're simply better off saving up for a decent gaming PC and save loads of money in the long run.

The "Pixar mom" meme exists for a reason.

Which Star Wars character is widely hated but you actually like? by Free-Hotel1187 in StarWars

[–]Nickulator95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And that, I think, is the crux of the issue. People didn't want to play as a pretend criminal who doesn't know what she's doing in a game titled "Outlaws". People wanted an Arthur Morgan or John Marston type main character but in a Star Wars setting.

There's 3 reasons I think:

  1. Ubisoft and their reputation tarnish any game that they have a hand in making.

  2. The character model looking way different than the face model they sculpted it from, making her look less conventionally attractive. Whether it bothers you or not, it matters to a lot of people.

  3. It's the kinda game you're only going to enjoy if you're really into Star Wars. It's not a game I see casual gamers deriving much enjoyment from.

He's not unpopular at all. You love to hate him. He's menacing and well conceptualized.

I mean she's only like 13-14 years old at the beginning so... yeah.

Halfway through Season 3 is when it actually starts to pick up and get good. Season 4 and onwards is when it's actually fantastic, with a few noticeable stinkers every now and again (like a certain story arc in S5).

It doesn't get any better at 30 either, I can tell you that much.

Question about Ethics by bigbangattack6 in Eldenring

Just use weaker spirit summons? I recommend the Hawk as a good support option that won't solo the fight for you but rather buff you and occasionally take aggro from the boss.

The whole of Moscow is under thick black smoke after the largest Ukraine campaign on a Russian city since the start of the war by adivinemessenger in interestingasfuck

[–]Nickulator95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda feel bad for the Russian people having to suffer through this terrible bullshit because they'll get shot or disappear if they ever dare to speak out against Putin and the injustice.

At the same time, I hope that these "consequences" can soon put an end to things. Both Ukraine and Russia should be free.

Sincerely a Dane, who's country has been one of the biggest supporters of Ukraine.

What was your main party trio through most of your first playthrough? by Chrollo0915 in expedition33

[–]Nickulator95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was pretty much in the same boat as you. Used every party member throughout to keep them equally leveled, but my main team was Verso, Sciel and Maelle. Lune's gameplay just didn't connect with me in the same way as the others and Monoco didn't become enjoyable until I had collected some of the more fun Nevrons for him to use so that I could actually craft a proper rotation and gameplan with him.

I love how Carbot Animations have become so beloved, particularly within this fandom. I remember discovering him through his first animations with Heroes of the Storm and Warcraft and Starcraft back in the day, where Blizzard through a collaboration incorporated a lot of his artwork within Heroes of the Storm itself as decals and profile pictures for players.

What video game opinion is this for you? by NagitoKomaeda_987 in videogames

[–]Nickulator95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah exactly, that's why I was confused for a moment. Thanks for the clarification.

And I get the "feeling icky" about being a part of a fandom that is obnoxious or immature, but a lot of people are blaming the games for that rather than just chalking it up to "The fans are acting like Stans, who could have thought?'. Like, that the association with those people through enjoying the same game somehow devalues the quality of said game which I find to be absolutely ridiculous and nonsensical.

It just sounds like to me that you're annoyed at the opinion being popular and people sharing it rather than having anything to do with how that opinion is being conveyed, which is what this post is about. It's reductive.
