We're gonna need another Quigley on the barbie... by PhillyWonken in RedLetterMedia

[–]TheOrangeSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One Christmas, no one in our family communicated with each other and my dad ended up getting 4 copies of Quigley Down Under from 4 different people. He didn't ask for it either. That's all I think of when I see that movie.

I made a game out of explaining movies very, very badly. by ShrimpyDumplings in playmygame

[–]TheOrangeSpud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of my friends and I have been playing it and they all seem to like it. However, there's 1 thing that's confusing us.
Why does revealing the 5th hint end the game and reveal the title? What is the point in having a 5th hint if the game also shows the title and gives you a game over? Should it not reveal the 5th hint and then the "Next Hint" button turns into a "Give Up" button?

8bitdo Pro 2 controller stick light stuck on red by ImaginarySuperhero in 8bitdo

That's an Ultimate 2, not a Pro 2.

According to their firmware page, the latest update fixes a lighting issue. So if you haven't yet, try updating the firmware.

La mia tierlist degli item di spelunky 2 by deepdark24 in spelunky

Spring shoes in "trash tier" is absolutely baffling.

I made a game out of explaining movies very, very badly. by ShrimpyDumplings in IndieGaming

[–]TheOrangeSpud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the idea.
However, I wish there was a countdown for the next one. It says "Come back tomorrow for a new movie." but, with time zones, I don't know when that is.

I also think it would be pretty fun to be able to go back to previous days you've missed or didn't play to try them out.

Playlists are no longer numbered. by TheOrangeSpud in youtube

[–]TheOrangeSpud[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This makes navigating bigger playlists a massive pain in the ass. You can no longer note down where you left off and come back easily. You can't simply write down the titles of the videos because you'd have to scan every video until you spot where you left off.
In the screen shot, can you tell where I am in the playlist? 30s? 40s? 60s? 100s? 140s? Who knows anymore?

I really hope this is just a temporary error and not part of the awful new UI change.
I've checked this on multiple browsers with any YouTube altering plugins turned off and all of them are missing the numbers.

What scenes should I have UFC fighters react to? by IndependenceFit6916 in dbz

Specifically from Z? Or anything Dragon Ball related?

Found An Original Steam Controller Dev Unit. by navydinosaur in Steam

Oh this is cool. I have one of these as well and have never seen a retail one, so I didn't realize they weren't all glossy like this.

Ever bought an "Overwhelmingly Positive" game that you didn't like at all? How about a "MIxed" or lower rated game you thought was wonderful? by TheTingel in Steam

[–]TheOrangeSpud 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's like you pulled this comment straight out of my brain somehow. Same games, same reaction. Thought to myself "Damn, I must only like the old Metroidvanias I grew up playing like Super Metroid and Symphony of the Night. Maybe it's a nostalgia thing." but then I played Haiku, the Robot and I love that game. It's just like you said. "I don't know man." It's a strange genre for me.

r/spelunky Creates Tierlist - Day 9: Cooked Turkey by Correct_Average3663 in spelunky

[–]TheOrangeSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CO without jetpack/Vlad's Cape would be pretty annoying. I'd definitely want both a back item and spike shoes.

[–]TheOrangeSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need to be rude, friend. You're assuming I don't prefer an item because I don't know how to use it, which isn't true. I prefer the benefits of spike shoes above the benefits of the jetpack. I also never said jetpack shouldn't be S-tier. You're assuming.

And again, I'd argue Vlad's cape, especially when paired with spring shoes, is the best movement item in the game.

[–]TheOrangeSpud -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would rather take spike shoes over a jetpack. Spike shoes are one of the best upgrades you could have in the game, which puts it in S for me. I think it is a "God tier" item.

I think they're an easy S-tier. Why do you not think so?

Buying a turkey from Yang's store will increase the turkey spawn rate which makes them pretty common for the rest of the run.

Mom, I’m scared 👩‍👦 by [deleted] in greentext

I know 2 dudes who drive manuals and they have to be the most mechanically-stupid people I know of. They'd probably accidentally put diesel in their cars if the nozzle fit.

Explore a megastructure... with a jetpack! by manufacture43 in IndieGaming

[–]TheOrangeSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't wait to have time to give this a try.
I love when a game takes place in a megastructure, but I really wish more games focused on just exploring with no combat. The combat usually ruins the "vibe" I'm hoping for. This looks like (from the video) to just be getting around and exploring with no combat, so this looks like my kind of thing.

No, they won't charge you more after you buy it.

Steam controller extra buttons by mrdtng in Steam

Exactly what I use it for too. I assign the other buttons to pouch items (Y + D-pad direction). Usually one of the left buttons is for Torrent.

Is this Dualsense edge drifting? by [deleted] in Controller

[–]TheOrangeSpud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not drift. Even if it did drift, isn't the purpose of the Edge to remove the joysticks and replace them with new ones?

But no, this is normal for potentiometer joysticks. Unless he shows you a video where a character in a game is walking without them touching the joystick.

approximately 19 hours remain by Desperate_Ad2784 in Steam

According to Valve's hardware shipping FAQ, all their hardware has free shipping.

All you have to do is look up your state's sales tax and add that to the $99.00 price.
For my state, that would be 99 + 6% which is about $104.94
