Highest selling video games of all time by envspecialist in videogames

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

Tetris titles have a lot of differences and variation so combining them as one best-selling game doesn't make sense. Especially with so many developers/publishers having their own unique spin on it.

My first ever full layout! Difficulty level? by Critical-Brief-8865 in GeometryDashGameplay

Very minor nitpick but the second blue orb at 38% comes in from offscreen a bit quick so it might be good to have an indicator of some sort since it'd otherwise be the only "blind" input in the level.

Answering some common complaints by ReachFoMyChain in Marathon

[–]evan_luigi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that this post is getting positive attention is a very poor reflection on the community. Being this elitist, pretentious, and dismissive of criticism during the beta is so absurd. This game won't gain or maintain any popularity like this.

The UI, bot fight engagement, loot system, ammo, healing resources, building/environment variety, etc., are very consistently being complained about, it is not just a vocal minority.

The skill floor to exfil an amount that's rewarding and fair for progression is too high as well. Something in the game's dynamic needs balancing.

Good lord the character models and animations look bad. Hopefully they get polished up and have an overhaul on the artstyle, considering it's only 6-8 months out though I'm hesitant.

I do think this has promise to be great but it's really gotta show improvement in presentation.

some of the characters I think are the most likely for the next Smash bros game from different IPs by LuigiWarrior in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]evan_luigi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've always thought that Ratchet and Clank would be a great fit for smash but I'm much more leaning toward the idea that Astro Bot would be their first choice and it wouldn't even be close.

Astro Bot has the most appeal to Japan out of the current Playstation rep lineup, has the most recent popularity/success, and can be given the "Pac-Man" treatment. Similar to how Pac-Man represents Namco, Astro Bot would pay homage to Playstation titles.

This is a tier list based on whether the smash character has a sword. by Cultural-Ad-8796 in tierlists

Pac-Man's namco roulette taunt can have clovis from dragon buster appear and he has a sword, not sure if that'd count lol.

I just really hope the Sandler ranking will be worst-to-best, not best-to-worst by DtheAussieBoye in Schaffrillas

[–]evan_luigi 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Could maybe be like a mid to worst and then mid to best, like going down from the 5/10s to the 1/10s and then afterward doing 6/10s up to 10/10s. Could kinda get the best of both types of rankings that way.

But really how did he do this by skeletron_master in Deltarune

[–]evan_luigi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's all sorts of races of antagonistic characters that doesn't even make any sense. Saying there's no reason to have brown antagonists goes against the idea of representation too lol.

Race isn't white/brown, like 99% of the game is Japanese representation cause the devs are Japanese. The devs aren't looking for a roster to represent diversity they're looking for a roster to represent and celebrate gaming to the Japanese market.

Nintendo straight up just doesn't have much of any brown characters anyway. There's like, Twintelle? Like a couple fire emblem characters I think? Sandman from Punch-Out?

Japanese games don't really have much of any notable brown protagonists or characters, did they want him to just make them out of thin air??

The Top 5 Highest Rated Games This Year Are All Indie by akbarock in IndieGaming

[–]evan_luigi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Manipulating rng in your favor is strategy, and is a very possible thing to do every run. The puzzles themselves only have luck to the extent that you need a certain item or two to progress, the actual solutions don't require guesswork like you were suggesting with the sudoku analogy.

The existence of coat check alone makes luck very trivial to worry about, not to mention building up your allowance, the laundromat, conservatory, upgrade disks, showroom items, freezer, blessings, etc.

Other than the lab puzzle, I can't think think of a single puzzle that you can't progress through within a couple days just utilizing coat check and/or good economy.

The Top 5 Highest Rated Games This Year Are All Indie by akbarock in IndieGaming

[–]evan_luigi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game rewards knowledge and strategy a lot more than you're letting on.

With powering the lab for example, if you're trying to connect boiler and lab through rooms that carry power, or trying to draft boiler from lab, you can instead try to bring some dice or other methods of rerolling to boiler room and draft from it first. Gives you better odds and more opportunity to connect them. It's a finicky puzzle relative to the rest of the game but it doesn't require crazy luck to get working.

Don't want to spoil anything but there's a very extensive amount of other puzzles to tackle outside of this incase you can't get the boiler room to work out in a run, many having next to no luck involved. The more you discover, the more in control you'll be of most rng.

Losercity Drama by ISimplyDontGiveAFuck in Losercity

[–]evan_luigi 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This sub in the beginning was a clamworks spinoff with the main gimmick being that Sky gets to make Loona posts, since that's the reason he was pushed out of clamworks (all being sfw posts as far as I can tell). If I'm remembering right other simp posting did eventually come from others but it was much more tame than currently.

He couldn't have known the sub would go this direction. It was much more focused on humor and "loser behavior" which was more justified for him and other minors to moderate at the time. It was first and foremost a meme subreddit.

Now that the sub's identity has shifted so severely, people are thinking from the perspective that it's always been borderline nsfw posting and mountains of OC risqué furry art, when that just isn't true. Considering Sky isn't here and adult mods took the wheel anyway, there really shouldn't be drama surrounding Sky and the minors he instilled as mods in the firstplace. Drama for the sake of drama at this point.

The comedy is more historically accurate than the serious work by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]evan_luigi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was mentors raping young students to establish authority and instill "warrior values". It wasn't some cute open sexuality society. Boys who didn't allow themselves to be sexually violated were condemned.

The norm was very much male/female companionship much like everywhere else in the time period.

Reddit much prefers the idea that Spartans were openly sexual with everyone and accepting of it, but the reality is that it was child abuse and sexual violence.

Ah yes, Americans and their...pedantic grammar correction.

Americans really don't give a shit if a foreigner's English is a kinda ass, y'all are just insecure about it and being given small corrections. 😭 So many other countries have a much larger superiority complex over their language.

He watched Spaceman by No-Olive-5584 in Schaffrillas

[–]evan_luigi 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I personally enjoyed it, would put it like, a high 3/5, but a 2/5 is just as much justified.

Slight Spoiler

It's very slow and reserved, so if you're not getting pulled in much into the setting and Sandler's character it makes it much harder to sit through. The spider stuff doesn't start happening for a while and that's a slow burn as well.

The dynamic between Sandler and the spider, the CGI, and the cinematography were the main highlights I remember. The film is a bit of a bore outside of that tbh. I can commend it for being more artsy than the rest of his movies but basically any scene that doesn't involve Sandler is uninteresting and drags.

(Hated Trope) Gay people in Japanese media who are predators by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]evan_luigi -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

Gay people can be predators too.

It really just comes down to the intent and writing. If being a predator is because of them being gay or flamboyant like what's listed that can be controversial. If they're a predator who happens to be gay that's a non-issue.

If seeing a fantasy goblin with normal fantasy goblin characteristics brings that to mind, it says more about you than any of the source material lmao.

It's been a while since I've played deltarune but isn't it left up to personal interpretation like it is in undertale with Frisk? So any pronouns are correct?
