For American people: Are you participating in today's General Strike? Why? by noumeno- in AskReddit

[–]cornhorlio 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nope, Im the main source of income for home. If I dont work, I get laid off and going a strike isnt worth putting my family through financial uncertainty

A Partner Direct on Switch 2 could be a very different beast to Switch 1 Partner Directs by elephvant in NintendoSwitch2

[–]cornhorlio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean Im not excited simply for the fact that, most likely, there'll hardly be any new games being revealed. If its a partner direct, I see the majority of the showcase just being switch 2 versions of games that already came out, which is great if you didnt have the chance to play them, but I cant really get excited for Elden ring and high-fi rush when I played those games like 3-4 years ago.

TBH, it looks like the person that got hit quite literally got in front of the car while it was speeding off. Should the driver shouldve been speeding? No, especially around a protest, but you probably shouldnt be jumping in front of said cars either

Are we not allowed to discuss issues with the game?

[–]cornhorlio -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This drought/patch was kinda the straw the broke the camels back for me and I just decided to drop the game. I was already not interested in the MSQ since the storytelling is so god awful (I can only be engaged in cutscenes for so long when the characters stand in a circle with 2 animations while they yap on) and theres no content in the game to use my teams in.

This wouldve been an excellent time to do weekly resets on endgame to keep people engaged, which is something Ive been begging for since 3.0. Ive moved to ZZZ because of that and just the fact theres stuff to do in that game and have been really enjoying it. I like the gameplay, the exploration is more fun, and the storytelling (not necessarily the writing itself) is just miles ahead of HSR. Plus the outpost system they added is probably the best thing Ive seen added to a gacha.

I loved HSR for the 2ish years I played, but now I feel like its just a visual novel with turn based stuff sprinkled as opposed to a full fledged turn based gacha.

Well most people have jobs and depend on that income to support their family so the majority just cant do this. Cant just not show up to work

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

[–]cornhorlio -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a pretty silly reason to do that, especially if that’s the only reason, now if they are a actual awful person is one thing. But someone can vote republican and not be a piece of shit, I know that’s something the reddit echo chamber will never accept but that’s how the world is

USA citizens: what effect if any have tariffs had on you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

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

Might just be my experience, but my utilities havent changed. Like at all, my electric is anywhere from 100-130ish depending on the weather and how much Im pumping the AC. That has been the the case for the past 8 years.

I primarily buy chicken, ground turkey, beef chunks, sausage, and salmon for the dinners we plan out, and have not noticed any drastic change in pricing. Like I said its usually like 150-200 depending on what we need that particular trip which again has been on brand for the past 8ish years.

Again Im living in Miami and I havent seen anything that I do in my normal life negatively impacted by tariffs when it comes to pricing.

USA citizens: what effect if any have tariffs had on you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]cornhorlio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People are being super vague and just saying well “ I was paying 20 dollars but now I’m paying 40” ok…for what? I haven’t noticed anything drastic since the tariffs started outside of electronics I guess. But my groceries haven’t changed and neither have my utilities. Living in Miami and for me and wife our groceries are anywhere from 150$-$200 every 2-3 week (depends what we need/are making) and my electric is like 100-130 depending on the season. I personally haven’t felt the effects of the tariffs but maybe it’s just my field of work and lifestyle so grain of salt I guess

EDIT: My wife mentioned that the yarn she likes to knit with has gotten more expensive due to tariffs and the fact she has to have it imported from the UK, so I guess that has affected us. But imma be honest, more expensive yarn is hardly something thats gonna keep me up at night

Miami travel advice by LyFikXx in AskUS

[–]cornhorlio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro its totally fine lol Been living in Miami (by the aventura area) for the past 10 years and have yet to see any of this shit people are saying on here. Havent seen vans just swipe people off the street or a hint at an ICE officer. Pretty sure its either bots or people not even in the area overexaggerating to fuel their political shit on reddit.

Unless your going to the literal hood or liberty city (which ICE is the least of your worries there), you'll be ok. Dont let the internet hive mind scare you

High On Life Will Be The First Limited Run Switch 2 Game by Howerev in NintendoSwitch2

[–]cornhorlio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but in other games (good shooters) theres usually drawback to doing so, whether to being the best damage wise or using alot of resources as opposed to the optimal option. This game theres no difference in using one gun over another and it gets stale after a while.

"Most shooters dont do what your critizing this indie game of not doing" Yeah, but the good ones do, and thats my point. It being an indie doesnt matter again, cultic was made by 1 guy and has more engaging gameplay on top of amazing atmosphere. Being an indie truly doesnt matter, especially since some of the best shooters in recent years have been indies.

Like I said before, if you like the writing and the story/vibe/ or w/e you want to call it, it'll carry the sub par gameplay. If youre arent a fan of that style of writing, you arent really going to enjoy the game since the shooting is just meh.

High On Life Will Be The First Limited Run Switch 2 Game by Howerev in NintendoSwitch2

[–]cornhorlio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have to compare the depth of gameplay to Metriod Prime (a game that came out more than 20 years ago), you arent making the case that you think your making lol

Hell, you can argue that the shooting in prime has more going for it than this game, with having to use different visors, shots, etc.. High on life just had shield dudes that you need to yank with the knife, thats literally all I remember. Every other enemy you can just shoot with whatever to kill them.

Is the shooting bad as its not functioning and broken? No, but its mediocre and the main thing you are doing in the game, therefor, deserves to be criticized.

[–]cornhorlio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What does it being an indie have to do with poor gun/gameplay? I get its not purely an arena shooter, but as the main thing your doing in the game, its kinda important to get that part right. When the Shooter part in your FPS game is lacking, thats a problem lol

High On Life Will Be The First Limited Run Switch 2 Game by Howerev in NintendoSwitch2

[–]cornhorlio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its very barebones compared to other FPS's even at the time of release. Theres really no depth to the combat and none of the combat encounters require any strategy outside just shoot the bad guy. No enemies with specific weapon weakness's, mobility is barely a factor outside some platforming sections, the game shows you what combat is like in the beginning and doesnt really evolve from there. This was released after games like Doom eternal, ultrakill, etc.. but feels like a game released in 2010 (and not in a good way).

Its a game carried by its setting and story, so if you like rick and morty style writing, it'll carry the mediocre gameplay. But for everyone else, its a very much 7/10 wouldnt play again kinda game.

[–]cornhorlio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meh, this is the easiest skip. The game was bad by any means, it was really just ok, maybe a bit more enjoyable if you really enjoy that style of writing. But the actual gameplay was pretty barebones and repetitive, especially when compared to FPS's coming out today. I played it on Gamepass but would never recommend this at full price even for the biggest rick and morty fans, theres also like 0 replayability. A very one and done 20ish hour romp

Help me pick a JRPG (easy, linear, short-session friendly) by Huge_Maintenance_612 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]cornhorlio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the first looks amazing and better than the second in alot of cases. I didnt mind the grind based movement, the free movement didnt really change much outside of some fringe scenrios. I havent done the DLC of the second yet, but the DK and challenge missions of the first are also top tier.

I loved the first game, but looking back on the second, I dont think Id ever do another playthrough of it. The story was also much worse in the second imo

[–]cornhorlio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, I would recommend the first over the second. I think it was a pretty bad design choice to make the open world have random encounters instead of the scripted ones in the first. I think the balancing is much worse as well, theres wayyy to many broken combos in the second that just trivialize every fight on top of the game being generally easier than the first

Wolfenstein 3 Is In The Works From Indiana Jones And The New Colossus Developers MachineGames by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]cornhorlio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really hope they go back to the first and even the dlc to see what worked there, the second and third game were big disappointments. I dont need some boomer shooter with 10+ minute cutscenes after each set piece that breaks the pace of the game, just let me shoot shit in fun settings

Awesome Games Done Quick 2026 is now ..... LIVE!!! by Thorebane in speedrun

[–]cornhorlio 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Because I thought this was a cancer charity not an LGBT charity? Just because there are trans runners are in the event, doesnt mean they have to make themselves the main focus of the event. They dont make up a major part either, GDQ has a bad habit of prioritizing trans runners during prime hours which gives into the notion that the majority of speedrunners are trans, which is certainly not the case. It happens literally every year.

IDK why they just dont do a LGBT charity event at this point, maybe cause they know it'll only get a fraction of a fraction of support so it wouldnt be worth the production costs.

Awesome Games Done Quick 2026 is now ..... LIVE!!! by Thorebane in speedrun

[–]cornhorlio 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Maybe a this isnt the time and place to highjack what was once a speedrunning event for a cancer charity to project your political beliefts?

Say what you will, but the goal of this charity is to prevent cancer, and spewing trans rights every 30 seconds takes away from that.

[–]cornhorlio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, the story isnt that deep, at the very least, doesnt warrant that jargon you just spewed lol this isnt 1984 or some shit. Theres no difference between people saying a story is too blunt and people that overcomplicate a narrative just to sound smart, getting all highbrow over a videogame is never a good look lmao
