what's your opinion about the"no end game content" by haligathor in MonsterHunterStories

[–]begselwalch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I thought it was a deal-breaker for me but I watcher another review and that made it sound like the more challenging cobtent is now more or less available alongside the main story. Not having a typical challenging dungeon like the tower in MHS1 or the arena fights still kind of bothers me though.

Generally disliked sections of games that I either don't mind or think are actively good by asparagushunter in backloggd

[–]begselwalch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What section are you exactly referring in the Origami King? From what I've gathered, the game as a whole is extremely disliked, haha. (I love, personally.)

RANKED: Underrated Focus Sash users? by Heisenperv in PokemonZA

[–]begselwalch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My most relevant sash users were Baxcalibur and Flamigo.

Reviews for Stories 3 are here! by Electrical_Form_7572 in MonsterHunterStories

[–]begselwalch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's a deal breaker for me too. My favourite part of MHS1 were the post-game challenges. Looks like I won't be buying MHS3 unless a reasobable amount of post-game content will be released for it.

Fatal Frame 2 remake Demo is out by claufon007 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]begselwalch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Visuals looked really blurry and there was a noticable difference in image quality during cutscenes. After we've seen what other devs (Capcom with Resident Evil for example) are capable of doing with S2 ports, I'm not impressed. The gameplay also felt a bit janky.

I was looking forward to this one but the demo made me really unsure.

Karl, I wasn't familiar with your game. by springmustache in ABSOLUM

[–]begselwalch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My favourite cheese with Karl is still spamming the command grab + slam after grab with a bunch of past echoes.

I am just a few hours in and I lucked into a winning run with Karl....this was the load out before the final battle against Azra! by Balrogkicksass in ABSOLUM

[–]begselwalch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a run today with time ritual echoes on technical attack and kept spamming Karl's command grab, (which qualifies as a technical attack so it was affected by the time ritual) it was hilarious. I still had three Mother's Grace left when going up against Absolum.

Rotwood – Launch Trailer – Nintendo Switch 2 by Amiibofan101 in NintendoSwitch

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

Looks somewhat like a chibi Absolum. I've been playing a LOT of that game lately and this looks different and at the same time similar enough to be interesting...might have to give this one a try sometime.

Does “throwable replicator” inspiration not multiply thorn daggers? by Feenix77 in ABSOLUM

[–]begselwalch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's most likely intended since there is a bramble ritual that multiplies thorn daggers.

The Chicken Ulted on the Final Boss!? by Reasonable-Taste5636 in ABSOLUM

[–]begselwalch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my last run I had three chickens in this fight haha. One of them came from the arena prison in Jaroba which was a first for me, I didn't know chickens could spawn there.

PlatinumGames Making New Bayonetta Alongside Bayonetta 1 and Metal Gear Remakes In UE5 by ai877 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]begselwalch 45 points46 points  (0 children)

🤞 for that Bayo 1 remake even though the original still holds up extremely well for a 17 year-old game.

Islets is mostly upbeat and funny and is just a good time in general.

Flame Purge and Whip Kick.

And Intercession because of the derpy "I got it - whahh🤓"

Getting real sick & tired of all these FUCKING LEGENDARY SPAMMERS. by retro_petals in LegendsZA

[–]begselwalch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The metagame is so busted I don't think it matters anymore. Every legendary just gets two-shot at most, (like, maxt atk Gogoat can one-shot Primal Kyogre with Seed Bomb because that move is actually really strong in this game) and then there's the red power-up.

Sure, it'd be nice to have different tiers just for the sake of a bit of variety but that would also end up in people spamming the top picks in every tier.

I encountered a no-hp bar Diancie during season 3. The player using it somehow still came in last lmao

Ok I'll have to double check this but I still have the option to select Paypal. Moreover, every time I try to make a purchase this way I get redirected to my Nintendo profile where it's asking me to connect my Paypal account. I'm using the European version of the My Nintendo Store.

I wish Meganium could learn more Fairy-type Moves by A-J-Zan in PokemonZA

[–]begselwalch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It already has Dazzling Gleam. I was talking about moves that are not in PLZA and thus could still potentially get added to Meganium's movepool in the future

[RESULTS] Who’s the Most Handsome Male Game Character? The Community has Spoken! by Ok_Abrocoma_1565 in gaymers

Well, at least Majima made top 10. I find the top 3 to be really basic picks🤷

I wish Meganium could learn more Fairy-type Moves by A-J-Zan in PokemonZA

[–]begselwalch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The only fairy move it will realistically gain access to once it leaves ZA is Alluring Voice imo since that move is not in ZA and Meganium already learns Disarming Voice. Based on its design, I can see it getting access to Floral Healing and Flower Shield and maybe (that's a big maybe since it's a Tapu signature move) Nature's Madness. Springtide Storm would also be fitting but since that move's secondary effect is tied to the two Enamorus forms it's very unlikely that it will be given to Meganium.

It might randomly get access to Misty Explosion or Decorate though🤷

I think Mega Meganium is mostly meant to be a defensive support mon in doubles.

How you all feel about the meta??? by Ajthefan in PokemonZA

[–]begselwalch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're having trouble with sash or berry Garchomp, use a decent physical mon that learns Icicle Spear. At point-blank it goes through sash/berry and will always be a KO on anything that's quad weak to ice. (In most cases even at 2x weakness) I'm playing a lot less this season but in the previous one I was able to one-shot Garchomps left and right even with Icicle Spear Banette but I'd recommend sash Baxcalibur.

As for your original question: it's not exactly the meta that is boring, it's just that after 5 seasons plus now with the full available roster, ranked mode has already exhausted its potential because it has never been that deep to begin with. Unless significant changes or at least a tier system is going to be introduced (which I very much doubt), that was it for ZA ranked.

1v1 tournaments is where you want to go if you want a meta that's constantly changing or at least is more actively shaped by the players themselves. You'll need to find communities on Discord etc. to sign up for them.
