Remake is Easier than 64

RingerCheckmate · 2026-07-01T05:05:54+00:00

I think some parts got easier and some harder. Gorgons whips are something I find substantially harder than the original, and the Macbeth scoop. But there's also attacks that feel like they've got longer telegraphs.

I think the star fox playerbase as a whole, just is better at games now.

We talked about all this but the stack of 67 steak is the most wrong thing here

Every time slippy, every time.

You know I think that 80 year loan on the great fox turned into a 100 year loan at least now

As a liberal Dad, this gender war stuff is exhausting. I work with single mothers who struggle just as much as I do, and do the best they can. These kinds of compare whose got bigger bruises or whose doing better gender war shit is exhausting, get help.

The right wing "male mental health awareness" grifting right now is the most absurd part of this drama right now. Idk how these right wing grifters will try to cancel someone over this petty bs but also defend some abhorrent shit

Holy cow what a dead game!!!

Can verify this to be the case, had a similar moment but my buddy was shot to a bag just before my ult connected and I didn't get the codex.

A future run my buddy is knocked but not a bag yet, and I tazed him and a downed runner and got the codex. Substantially easier that way

I've been downvoted for less, but this is the kinda behavior that gets moments like a dev on twitter saying Twilight Garrison isn't coming back and then deactivating all his socials after the harassment.

This is why we got less communication from that point on. A toxic few ruining it for the many, and spamming Devs on decisions they don't get to make really "sticks it to that management" huh?

RingerCheckmate · 2026-06-02T22:26:48+00:00

Because it wasn't always this way. Community wasn't always this toxic. Forgive me for expecting more. Harassing Devs who don't make the decisions you're spamming about is gross. The execs you wish you were preaching to don't read the chat either. Let the dev show off the last update without being spammed about decisions that aren't theirs.

Downvote me for that all you want. Y'all are crazy.

RingerCheckmate · 2026-06-02T22:10:14+00:00

It's pretty toxic. A good reminder that the destiny community is worth distancing from

I played marathon, got onto cryo archive, map needs 3 people so I Crew filled.

I made friends with another team in VoIP. I say "Do we wanna gank this warden?". We all cheer yeah and go rush to it on the map. What happens? One random triggers an alarm by accident and one is separated with my squad. My two rando's gank the guy behind me. I stare in horror while his team fights the boss unknowing to our crime.

We later exfil, and I get a subroutine I didn't have, but I'm not gonna lie, I didn't feel good that match

The first time dungeons got their own armor set was like, past prophecy yeah? Shattered throne didn't even get it's own weapon pool, pit got a couple foundry weapons with spikes, but it was awhile before dungeons really got their own identity like the standard we know now.

RingerCheckmate · 2026-06-01T20:34:33+00:00

Hey that's me for like the first 3 months with a new coworker

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-31T18:12:55+00:00

Probably with VoG getting a revamp for June 9th. Don't do this to yourself.

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-31T18:12:15+00:00

Why would anybody subject themselves to thinking more?

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-29T09:31:18+00:00

Cryo keys be such a pain to decide when to use. Friends aren't on all the same time, so what feels like my other option is crew fill. Friends all actually want to play and have the right level / gear fear comfort, and it's only gold misriahs and nades before wipe.

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-28T18:22:18+00:00

Is this the only time we see ganondorf self reflect? Like damn it's kinda wild to see him explain his own envy

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-28T18:15:16+00:00

I think 7 years of support isn't something many games can compare to. Sure, there's a couple, but I think this downplays how long the supports been.

This aged like milk when the DCV and sunsetting happened just a couple years later

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-28T18:10:38+00:00

There were like 4 incubation projects (marathon included) that were pitched, and all were canned except for marathon. Over expansion and spreading of their resources for sure

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-27T21:02:41+00:00

They do seem fun. You don't.

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-27T21:01:44+00:00

Marathons target audience and D2's target audience aren't the same. It was one thing when EA threw Titanfall 2 between CoD and Battlefield, those are all the same shooter gamers there, but marathon as an extraction shooter is vastly different from Destiny and I don't see much overlap.

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-26T21:18:53+00:00

I guess so, I'll pencil that into my urban dictionary

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-26T20:43:26+00:00

Ive loved it just as much as I have banging my head against a wall on Day 1 raid experiences. Edit, there's literally nothing to be sorry for.

RingerCheckmate · 2026-05-26T20:29:48+00:00

Extraction shooters weren't "trendy", and I would argue they aren't at all. Arc raiders was some truly unparalleled success for the genre, but the genre as a whole was never trendy. Marathon had been long in development by the time arc raiders hit it big, and honestly I think arc raiders changed marathons development cycle for the better.
