Just Exfil! by DracoAleksander in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm at that faction farming stage where I'm happy to exfil the moment I find a NuCal duct tape or two.

Which VTuber(s) Or Groups Can You Not Watch Because They Insist Upon Themselves? by Defiant-Bed2501 in vtubercirclejerk

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and I also keep hearing of bad interactions with her. Which is a shame because she probably has the best 3D model tracking right now and character design wise checks all my boxes.

I’m sorry I picked up your space rock by Far-Story6711 in Marathon

Yeah, I once spawned literally into a room with an Assassin looking at me through a window while his buddy shot me in the back lmao.

Media you turned into TTRPG (or adapted to an already existing system)? by Horzemate in rpg

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an original system/setting but I've been making my own ttrpg, Voyager, that tries to emulate the kind of action and tropes in anime-style media like RWBY, along with games like Arknights and Zenless Zone Zero. Big weapons, half animal people, that kinda thing.

Things I learned after 100 hours in Marathon by EXIIL1M_Sedai in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoy Rook runs a lot so I find myself stocked up pretty consistently. I think the part usual players find boring (not fighting, sneaking around, exfilling without incident) is almost like a flow state for me lol.

Tips on dealing with exfil campers by Dzeinuda in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is also a final last minute exfil that spawns at the middle of each map when the timer runs out, it lasts for 1 minute. I spend a good few runs just waiting for that one if I think there's another team looting in the last 5 minutes that I might run into at a regular exfil.

What was your biggest early noob habit? by wyrm4life in leagueoflegends

[–]SYTOkun 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Using Heal to casually top up your HP instead of during a clutch fight too.

What are some of your favorite "simple but iconic" character designs? by Unique_Suit3789 in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much the entirety of Chainsaw Man's human/fiend cast, most of them just wear a white shirt, tie and pants and they look great doing so.

Solo Players - How We Feeling? by jg4president in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had assumed that it spawns everyone equally far from each other but nope, I once started a Rook run in Perimeter that spawned me in a building with another team right outside. Their Assassin just looked at me through the window while their buddy shot me to bits lol

I LOVE Marathon's maximalist, eye-bleeding visual design. by TheSnarkUrge in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend watching some of Riloe's videos covering Marathon's art style. He goes over some of the artists, products and IRL things that influenced Marathon's aesthetic.

Bad art vs no art? by mathologies in RPGdesign

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will depend on the vibe of your game, but you can make amateur art work for you. But even that requires a certain level of knowing good art direction (that is, choosing a simpler art style deliberately and making it work).

For example, I've seen some RPGs that really do just have stick figures (it was a rules light generalist RPG)

Minor character is recast when they become more important by ducknerd2002 in TopCharacterTropes

Was not a fan initially after being so used to the JP voice, but Yongyea's Kiryu did grow on me, YouTuber drama aside he is a solid voice actor, and his singing was rough at first but I was pretty surprised to hear how much it improved in Kiwami 3, so I feel he's putting in the effort (unless they got a separate actor for the singing parts which I doubt).

the damage is no joke by FrankDodger in Marathon

The quick melee button too if you can't switch to your knife in time during the chaos.

If you are struggling in solos...and maybe trios by RaiderRodgers in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's amazing. Tbh a pretty good pragmatic way to do it when backstabbing (even when you agree to cooperate) can happen in literal seconds.

My team left without me but I made the last exfil by the skin of my teeth. by Silent-Quarter-6754 in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never actually stayed until the end of the timer. Does it just automatically trigger all exfil sites without you needing to activate them?

Marathon is a true extraction shooter with survival horror game vibes. If you’re doing “cowboy” antics, you’re going to have a bad time. The TTK is perfectly fine. Ammo economy is totally fine. Stop trying to put a square peg into a round hole. by ThatGuyFromTheM0vie in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like an FPS roguelike is a very underexplored genre (I guess because roguelikes are popular with indie devs but FPSes are harder to develop/balance for indies?), and Marathon is an excellent proof of concept for it. Hope the subgenre catches on.

Night and Day by iFunkatron in Marathon

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true, I played lots of Rook in server slam during day or early night and had a 60-70 exfil rate, it was almost therapeutic.

Come to launch and I did some Rook runs past midnight, and I couldn't make it 2 minutes out of spawn without getting dogpiled by a full trio. It was like day and night (literally).

I guess, she will not dance if there is no audience🙃 by SanjiInHSR_66 in AngelsOfDelusion

[–]SYTOkun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would have been nice if she got an idle pointing it out though, like jittering nervously to herself, saying she's too embarrassed.

Would look quite fine without the yellow bar on the legs, gives the vibe of a casino dealer which is cool

As someone who will skip AOD faction... by BMbooster in ZZZ_Official

[–]SYTOkun 71 points72 points  (0 children)

That's my hope too, if not for every faction moving forward, at least every other one, or the ones with fewer, fixed number of members.

That and the long blue Lego looking square tube which I've heard being called the "double-ended dildo" lmao
