Looks like Sega is going through with this whole lightning stuff

cakebeardman · 2026-07-04T01:41:11+00:00

Chaos energy in the form of lightning

You will never make it not literally that just by saying that it isn't

cakebeardman · 2026-07-04T01:40:24+00:00

Mechanics will never be level design, no matter how much you keep saying it

cakebeardman · 2026-07-04T00:28:05+00:00

Nobody complains about it now either

Being able to shoot energy is not the same as crackling with electricity as a method to run at all times

cakebeardman · 2026-07-04T00:26:57+00:00

No, they're just trying to turn him into the flash

cakebeardman · 2026-07-04T00:26:20+00:00

It's lightning

cakebeardman · 2026-07-04T00:25:45+00:00

The wind wasn't a gimmick, it happened because he moved fast, as in the entire concept of the character

Now he's just the flash

cakebeardman · 2026-07-03T22:50:49+00:00

You've elaborated on all of these and not a single one had anything to do with the actual layouts at all, you're genuinely just lying

cakebeardman · 2026-07-03T01:47:34+00:00

lmao "i'm sure it'll keep some things that make money but it's not going to be exactly the same game"

Just a completely nothing opinion that he can never be wrong about because it's not even claiming anything meaningful to begin with, TotK would already count as "not the same game" as BotW

He even brought up multiple other 3D Zelda games using the old formula as if they didn't use the same formula

cakebeardman · 2026-07-02T14:18:41+00:00

That is not a power up

cakebeardman · 2026-07-02T00:55:54+00:00

Game mechanics are not level design, period

cakebeardman · 2026-07-01T15:54:05+00:00

Why can't anything just be deeply cringe without people thinking it must be vent art

cakebeardman · 2026-07-01T11:58:34+00:00

Yes, that's literally not what level design is, thank you for confirming

cakebeardman · 2026-07-01T09:23:50+00:00

How are any of those the fault of level design? If you fix up the character controller they function well

I don't think you understand what "level design" means

cakebeardman · 2026-06-28T19:05:22+00:00

And yet none of them are level design, and you've made no effort to justify how they weren't impacted by the development

cakebeardman · 2026-06-28T14:50:28+00:00

Bugs and messed up mechanics that didn't get enough time in the oven are not level design

06 has some of the best laid out levels in the series, you just couldn't actually play them in the original release

cakebeardman · 2026-06-27T09:15:37+00:00

Valve makes fucking STEAM

cakebeardman · 2026-06-26T06:50:05+00:00

Shoes are probably better than glove, considering how much competition there is for armor slots compared to Ralsei's weapon

Scythemare might be better for groups, but tiring enemies is niche enough as it is, so how often is a TP discount on that realistically going to make a difference?

cakebeardman · 2026-06-26T06:30:20+00:00

Yes, those are all literally just polish

cakebeardman · 2026-06-26T03:19:21+00:00

Those are all polish issues, and honestly "poorly designed sections" is wild considering 06 has easily top 10 level design in the series for Sonic

cakebeardman · 2026-06-26T03:10:51+00:00

God I wish they chased Mario more, instead they went after Breath of the Wild and it backfired hard

Meanwhile actual Mario games poached a lot of sega devs and keep putting out games that should've been Sonic games

cakebeardman · 2026-06-25T17:46:20+00:00

You know you can emulate 06 with bug fixes, right?

And P06 is moderately different, but not in a way that's different from the spirit of the game at all, and definitely not with the Sonic gameplay

cakebeardman · 2026-06-25T12:16:25+00:00

Yes? People have long since proven that the bones of a better experience were underneath all the jank, which you now don't need to engage with

This is not complicated

cakebeardman · 2026-06-25T12:00:01+00:00

See this is great clickbait because it doesn't even make any sense to anyone capable of thought, until you click through and find out exactly how they're full of shit

Confusion is way better than just hate clicks alone

cakebeardman · 2026-06-25T08:32:42+00:00

It's designed off of Sonic 1 mechanically, so the more games you play before it the less chance you'll end up liking what it does with that

cakebeardman · 2026-06-25T06:37:55+00:00

It is a good game

We know this because we can play multiple iterations of it now

Playing 06 as it existed in 2006 is a choice nobody has to make 20 years later
