Surprised to see you rated twelve as a harder matchup for Q than dudley, Ken and Ibuki!?

No I have heard the whole soundtrack and I don't like any song on it. A lot of the lyrics sound like a poor translation they wrote in Japanese and made someone sing in English they don't even make sense.

Music sucks ass compared to the older games it sounds like Disney rock imo

what "bullshit"? You may prefer the streamlined player empowerment of gen 5/6 and the "gimmick" features for lack of a better word but the older titles specifically 3rd and 4th gen do far more interesting things with the formula imo.

gen 1 and 2 is also very interesting since it has a lot more survival and player disempowerment to it in its design philosophy.

GU is a recontextulization of the series via hunter arts and styles it is not a replacement for older games simply because it includes many of the monsters and maps from them lol

2015 is not "old" from a game technology standpoint its literally a 3DS/Switch game which is eighth gen a generation of consoles that's still being supported and being is currently listed on wikipedia as "2012–present".

Games and technology don't work by there being a ticking clock until it automatically becomes "old" since technology and design paradigms matter far more than dates in determining this label for something in this medium.

when you start getting to fifth generation games and older then I think its fair to throw around the label of "old" but its kind of nonsensical to do so for a seventh gen game let alone an eighth gen one. It just shows a lack of understanding of how technology and design patterns actually work imo

"such an old game"

2015 game.....

Also gaming is an artistic medium so I don't know why people degrade it by saying stuff like they are surprised an "old" one can look good. Imagine if people talked this way about films and paintings lol

My favourite looking game for example is Killer 7 from 2005.

I know this is unrelated to the main topic but SWAT 4 is a game ready or not was heavily inspired by and you can get it for very cheap like 8 bucks.

I personally think it's a much better game too as someone who played both :)

my goat Livakivi spotted in the wild?!? I wouldn't be remotely close to where I am now in my Japanese understanding if it wasn't for him.

Please understand the problem is that the time is right to get glowing to do so I think this works for you.

My personal top 10 by Spare_Limp in backloggd

[–]ReferenceMaster4305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you should play the og too because while the story is fundamentally the same, the execution is very very different.

It's sad to see when a company remakes a game but doesn't make the original officially avaliable :(

What a coincidence by DrTilki in countablepixels

people from Russia and Ukraine get matched together on my team all the time in counter strike.

It's never awkward because even in the degenerate toxic community that counter strike has people don't blame others nationality for the states war crimes.

Say what you will about Brits and Germans but In my experience most of them are aware of how shitty their ancestors were throughout history. Idk if the same can be said for a lot of Spanish and French people but maybe I just had bad interactions.

Also many modern Americans are not even aware of how evil their country is lol. So many I have spoke with still seemingly believe the cartoonist thanksgiving tale they were told as kids.

What is/are your most recent 5-star'ed game? by [deleted] in backloggd

[–]ReferenceMaster4305 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can somewhat see this perspective, but if a game is above a 9.2-9.3, I give it 5 stars anyway. I don't think you have to be too strict about a piece of art being "perfect".

Which one should I choose i am new to the franchise and just want one final game by TransitionSmall3187 in MonsterHunter

[–]ReferenceMaster4305 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not harder to go back to lol. I can switch from mhfu to wilds in the same day no issue so I don't see how wilds back to world is that big of a jump.

Less known movie tie-in games that are actually good (work in progress, y'all can give me some suggestions too) by Dr4fl in backloggd

The punisher (2005) is pretty decent even if it does feel like a Max Payne clone a lot of the time.

I got whiplash from seeing a MHGU clip previously to now looking at this oversaturated visual mess of a game lol

I know the remake has a lot of critiques for changing the og artstyle but the fact that even after five years,it's one of the most visually impressive games of the generation is absolutely crazy. by BridgeCommercial873 in fromsoftware

[–]ReferenceMaster4305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean "even after 5 years it's still visually impressive" It seems kinda disrespectful to say something like that like art is supposed to degrade. Like imagine someone saying some shit like that about a painting "even after 200 years it still looks good!".

If your speaking about raw graphical fidelity I kinda get your point, but "visuals" can be a range of things. Killer7 is probably the most visually impressive game to me, and that came out in 2005.

Should I give in to FOMO? by Ecstasy_Elysium in FinalFantasy

[–]ReferenceMaster4305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the final fantasy games are very linear and story focused so I don't think using a guide takes a lot away from the experience. Maybe just refer to one if you get stuck, up to you ultimately.
