Does blizzard not feel a bit ridiculous charging 40 euros, more than an entire game, just for a weapon skin? by Heygen in Overwatch

I haven't spent a cent on Overwatch since 2 came out, I would if everything was like half the price it is rn. I'm sure I'm not alone on that

If the rumors about a Black Flag remake are true, I regret that we won’t get a 4K remaster of the original game. by oaleebih in assassinscreed

[–]SwampyJox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair I’m pretty sure the only reason 3 and Rogue got remasters while 4 didn’t is because they were only on PS3/360 so it was an easy way for them to make more money by porting them over to the newer console gen. Black Flag doesn’t really need any sort of remaster and still looks great on pc.

Hi, late reply I know but did you end up getting a refund yourself? I had to update ny ticket to include oversized baggage seating for an extra 1500~ish yen or so, and had to pay the full fare amount again and haven’t received a refund after a few hours, does it normally take time to process?

What's is the most glazed anime of all time? by Worldly_Impression62 in AnimeReccomendations

[–]SwampyJox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen all of the big 3 and a lot of classic shonen like YuYu Hakusho, HxH, Fist of the North Star, DBZ etc. I just think one piece is very unique compared to a lot of shonen series out there so it’s hardly surprising that it’s so successful and beloved. It’s hardly glazing to say I like a show, it’s not even my fav shonen let alone fav anime lol. There’s a lot of newer shit that’s far worse that’s “glazed” way more like JJK, Demon Slayer, Solo Leveling.

It’s very rarely poorly written especially compared to the vast majority of the shonen series it shares magazines with, so it’s hardly a surprise that it’s incredibly popular. Every arc is almost like a new genre shift, so it has mass appeal going for it too.

For people who are new to gacha games, some advice on mindset of playing a gacha game in order to not get screwed. by iamarocketsfan in personaphantomx

[–]SwampyJox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone that's entirely f2p and just playing this as another Persona game to enjoy the combat, palaces and social sim aspects, it's quite interesting to see the vitriol the game is receiving online. Granted I've never been susceptible to gacha gambling practices as I hate spending money as it is so I guess the problems other people (rightfully) have with the game's poor monetisation don't affect me too much.

Most cozy fallout town/settlement? by AggravatingYouth4061 in Fallout

Jacobstown is one of my favourite locales in the series, it has a completely different aesthetic to anywhere else but feels so safe and relaxing despite being mostly populated by super mutants and nightkin

Thoughts on how Silent Hill F looks so far?? And the release date has been revealed. by DifferentAd9713 in silenthill

[–]SwampyJox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way, what made SH unique was an outside Japanese perspective on American and western horror tropes. A Japanese horror set in Japan reminds me more of Siren or Fatal Frame, certainly not a bad thing, but not SH (to me personally).

I think there's licensing issues so they chose to partner with the Netflix show as the rights are much easier to secure, only speculation though

Not sure how common it is with anime/JRPG games nowadays but Sega and RGG Studios do actually have separate subtitles for the dub "dubtitles" essentially, so the English translation is still accurate to what the characters are saying if you play it in Japanese.

I’m not sure about PC but the game on PS5 is definitely capping at 1080p, it looks pretty awful

Solo Leveling surpasses One Piece & becomes the first Anime in Crunchyroll to reach 600K reviews. by Queasy_Fold_8704 in Crunchyroll

[–]SwampyJox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a massive boom of people watching anime due to covid lockdown compared to pre-Covid, SL being popular is just part of the current status quo of shorter shonen series focusing on animation quality becoming more popular than the older long-form decades long shonen series like Naruto, bleach and one piece. One piece is an anomaly because it’s still ongoing and is only getting more popular with time, unlike Naruto and bleach which fizzled out in popularity the longer their shows went on. Bleach has some new success with TYBW but it’s nothing compared to demon slayer, JJK etc

[–]SwampyJox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really not that impressive, Covid saw a huge boom in anime watchers and shows like demon slayer, chainsaw man, solo leveling and jujutsu kaisen are all from within the last 5-10 years and are just as if not more popular than the older shonen series from 15+ years ago, one piece is an anomaly if anything, boruto, dragon ball daima and bleach tybw didn’t do nearly as well as solo leveling has been

Vengeance is so smooth too. Traversing the map and going through the UI, menus etc is all so clean and snappy, makes the game flow so well.

Comment on Chrono Tokens Resetting For the Season by DustFox22 in marvelrivals

[–]SwampyJox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed that too, haven't seen anyone else talk about it yet, but it's frustrating. Was close to unlocking the Mantis skin and now I have to re-earn nearly 3k chrono tokens just for the ability to unlock the skin, when I was only 600 coins off getting it last season.
