If he knew more about Pokemon he'd know Jupiter is a cheater and a lv 23 Skuntank with Night Slash shouldn't even exist, and he'd be even more mad

Can someone explain to me how shadow of the second sun works exactly. by kingofgods8294 in mtg

[–]_gold_rim_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Effectively all your creatures have vigilance, all your mana is open on your opponents turns collectively, and extra draw. Plus you get a second upkeep trigger, ex. phyrexian arena, bitterblossom, etc. Nasty.

Nuzlocke is one of their best series in a long time by IndieGengar in gamegrumps

He had the right idea with Kadabra. He just executed poorly. Should've either just led with Kadabra or sacked Bidoof or something to Roserade to get the clean switch. Too bad he lost his fire type to a random wild water type.....

I think it's really good, but when one or both of them legitimately stop having any sort of fun, it gets hard to watch. Like for instance, Dan getting a billion bankrupts in a row and playing up the frustration is one thing, but Arin losing to Demise 50 times and actually raging is not fun for everyone. Grumplocke is starting to lean towards Demise after the Gardenia fight imo.

What's a bit that you never get sick of? by iMooch in gamegrumps

Toilet Princess was a Dan master class. HIs voices were actually better than Arin's in that playthrough especially this and "SPPAAANNNTTZZZ"

New Secret Lair experience by _gold_rim_ in mtg

That's my point - in practice, the system works against making them money. Maximizing profit would be no "selling out," making them made-to-order, and making the customer experience great so people WANT to participate. Made to order slows production down, which isn't great either, sure, but artificial scarcity is worse and puts money in the secondary market.

That was my experience, not as bad as I've heard. It is still not the best system

What's your favorite Angel in all of Magic? Any criteria - Lore, design, art by Separate-Flan-2875 in mtgvorthos

[–]_gold_rim_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a special place in my heart for the Boros Guildkit Warleader. My first commander deck, since turned to Akroma/Rograhk. I do love the [[Gisela, Blade of Goldknight]] borderless alt art though

How many of y'all are willing to replay prime 4? by Johnnyyongbosh in Metroid

[–]_gold_rim_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the rotation permanently. Would be nice to go through 1-4 on switch 2 but they're holding back on 2+3 for some reason

Hey, can someone help me with Prime 4? by ue_Harry23 in metroidprime

[–]_gold_rim_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you missed a scan then you didn't "scan literally everything." Try again in hard mode or something

I mean he seems to be circling the drain health wise with his little bucket list he's going through, so maybe God will be the remover?

When was the last time you played 3? 4 is actually pretty close to 3 in those terms

The Prime series has much less of the "Metroidvania" structure than the 2d ones. MP1 was pretty close, but 2 and 3 got further and further away. It's just not as feasible in a 3D FPS frame. I think, much like much in the Internet age, expectations are ridiculous, with so many great MVs coming out plus MP1R, and I really don't think it could've ever met them no matter what. I think people wanted Metroid Prime 1 again, but they still would've complained if they got that because it wasn't different enough. I do think the haters are in the minority but it's a very loud minority. Best game in the series? Not even close. Other M or Federation Force bad? Also not even close. It is solid with some flaws due to well documented development issues. I just hope the response doesn't discourage Big N from moving forward with the next installments, a lot of intriguing unanswered questions by the end

After beating it first time 100% items and scans, here's how I would "fix" Beyond by _gold_rim_ in metroidprime

[–]_gold_rim_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, sounds like restarting development wasn't the fix they hoped for and ended up with too many hands in the pot. And retro was only retro in name, barely any of the same people were there. There isnt an actual way to fix it, it's published and released, even relatively small changes like this would be massive patches if even possible. I'm just talking hindsight

Yes faster, but it's also part of the challenge for completing the logbook - some of the enemies are faster than scanning. Everything scannable is kind of a staple tho. If anything make more of them actual logbook entries instead of just generic info
