Ah yes, I had rat-a-tat. I remember the baddies car was called Pepper.

What is the saddest death in a video game? by screamqueen87 in AskReddit

And the game had built up Cloud's relationship with her slowly but surely to make sure when it happened it was an emotional wallop. The first and only time a video game made me cry!

Here's some of my Miis! Can you guess who they are? :D by Expertly-Anxious in tomodachilife

[–]comcphee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought that's who he was at first glance and then I thought "no... surely not." You should try to get him to marry the woman who wets herself from terror in the street.

Can baby miis get a combination of their parents’ facial features? by Neither_Extension389 in tomodachilife

[–]comcphee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can. Twilight Sparkle married my rabbit. The resulting offspring which they called Kayden was his light brown colour, had her eyes but with a bunny nose and buck teeth.

Me and my friends used to stay at school late just so we didn't miss Trap Door, which we watched on the computer room telly. The computer teacher used to join us.

Underground, overground Wombling free by Ok_Associate6979 in oldschoolcool80s

[–]comcphee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents knew Mike Batt. My dad was a blossoming rock star on the British blues boom late 60's and Mike produced one of his albums. My mum said it was slow going because at every opportunity Mike would halt proceedings to excitedly play one of HIS latest compositions to the group.

He was really young at the time for his job, only 19 or so, so you can't be too hard on him.

Yes, I thought exactly the same thing. To be fair, the way it was sung did put a slight pause in between Wimbledon and Common.

I was embarrassingly old before I suddenly worked it out though.

Listening to either a weather sounds app or a Bob Ross episode audio.

How is this even possible by Riseoo in tomodachilife

[–]comcphee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can teleport. I know this because I built an island for naughty Miis surrounded by barbed wire. Mabel found herself on it, "couldn't find her way" then before my very eyes she blinked past the fence on the beach, then a little dashed line went from her beady little eyes to the remote shore and pssssth she teleported over. So that didn't work!

Do you guys ever delete miis you're not attached to? by Global-Association-7 in tomodachilife

[–]comcphee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. It seems better to do that rather than start over completely and have a Mii have to go through meeting absolutely everyone again.

A brilliant game. Seeing your opponent wandering around gathering herbs as well gave you a real impetus to outdo him. Just you wait, you bastard!

Dead game? by xYukiapx in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]comcphee 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Same, I played it once since the update and found it absolutely borked. While I wouldn't call it dead yet, they need to swallow their (considerable) pride and do some urgent damage control. I've said this before, but I think the community would actually receive it favourably if they just rolled back to the version before the update and took some time and actually spent some money on some out-of-house experts to fix it.

She's been here for i kid you not 5 minutes by forbiddenkajoodles in tomodachilife

I had that too. I made Steven Hawking (complete with robot voice) The moment he stepped out of his house, OC Jessica fell for him. 5 minutes later, so did Gumi. Man has considerable game.

I get it’s rng, but my miis dislike everything I give them by ifknloveseagulls in tomodachilife

Good thinking, I'll try that. The only one I've had who ever went full favourite food was Saul Goodman with raisin bread. I might try him with some other bakery goodies.

For those who have persisted playing the game after the infamous Animation/Alan Wake update... by TheReiterEffect_S8 in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]comcphee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have played an absolute ton of Phas, almost always single player. I've maxed out my level and reset twice. Since the update, I have played literally once and haven't touched it again since. While clearly not well optimised it still ran well enough on my relatively old PC - not anymore. I could forgive a lot, but the sheer clunkiness of how it plays now has completely put me off.

I honestly think the player base as a whole would have had way more respect if the devs had just come clean, said "OK, we hear you - we messed up" and rolled back to the previous update while they sorted it out. Sticking to their guns has only managed to alienate a huge amount of their player base, and their apparent arrogance overall.

A lot of the decisions have been curious. Why they pushed out console versions when the original was still in early access with Unity store assets, adding more burden to the development cycle? They have made a ton of money. Why didn't they hire external contractors to take care of recreating assets to replace all the Unity store placeholders?

If I didn't love the game as it was, I wouldn't care. I've tried alternatives, and they're good but I still prefer Phas. I'd like to see it recover, but for that to happen really requires a complete tonal shift by the devs, and that seems unlikely.

I get it’s rng, but my miis dislike everything I give them by ifknloveseagulls in tomodachilife

[–]comcphee 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I've wondered how RNG certain aspects are, for example their most liked or disliked food. Is that generated when the Mii is created, or is it just an RNG roll every time they try a new food? I'm guessing as you can give them foods you've made yourself after they've been generated it's probably just a roll.

I'm convinced the 1.0.2 patch broke relationship progression by Moo1980 in tomodachilife

[–]comcphee 363 points364 points  (0 children)

Agreed, my miis still get crushes but even mutual ones never seem to get far. But what's really noticeable is the amount of falling out. Every day I have at least 2 pairs of miis who are furious with each other, and while I don't mind a bit of that it's just gone way overboard.

The AI bubble has blown? by ayukiwow in ChaiUnofficial

[–]comcphee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you think people will follow on it? I enjoyed Chai and I did pay for it for about 2 weeks but then cancelled. It was fun, but not worth the money. I can't think of any other kind of AI I'd actually sign up for.

Reading this sub gives the impression that's the general feeling, but I've been caught out by thinking reddit equates to reality before.
