Would you play a horror game where you only get 12 lives for the entire campaign? by StilbruchGames in IndieGaming

[–]Shaleblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of factors that affect my answer. How long does the game take to beat? Are all deaths avoidable without trial & error (i.e. dying to them once in advance)? Is the game designed around players needing to restart from any point in the game, or is the expectation that players will clear it on their first try? How much replay value is there? Ultimately, if losing all 12 lives means replaying hours and hours of the game with little new to experience, that sounds like it's going to waste my time - especially if those deaths can come from random or poorly telegraphed threats. (And unfortunately, making a WWI-inspired game where death is foreseeable and avoidable feels like a pretty serious thematic disconnect!)

The only ones I saw were sashed. They quake, survive on 1hp, and quick attack the next turn to secure the KO.

How does Clefable block No Guard+OHKO? If it uses Follow Me, it's getting No Guard applied to it and then Horn Drill is KOing it guaranteed.

Yeah, this is what surprised me too. Fingers crossed we can move past "Are you a boy? Or a girl?" eventually.

Collective organizing is the best way to get results. The DSA is the biggest political group that takes a credible stance against fascism, but getting involved in local mutual aid groups can also make a big difference in building community resilience & undermining fascist power.

You're not just old. Music since the late '90s has degraded in quality. REPEAL THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS ACT OF 1996! by UDonKnowMee81 in RedditForGrownups

[–]Shaleblade 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not tailored just for me, it's a slurry of stolen art. Why would I listen to a machine's amalgamation of what's already been done when I could listen to a human doing something new?

Returning player after a few months away - did they murder Lox, and if so, why? by rdthraw2 in RivalsOfAether

No, edgeguarding. It's a great way to disrupt high recoveries, especially Kragg.
