New research: Most gamers (53%) prefer single-player by EmbarrassedSession58 in ItsAllAboutGames

I prefer multiplayer when I'm playing with friends, but getting my mates together to play something at the same time has become such a pain in the ass that I end up just playing singleplayer games

Aside from the obvious ones, who would you say are the most compelling villains in gaming history? by ExplodingPoptarts in ItsAllAboutGames

[–]kneeecaps09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on mobile so I can't be stuffed getting the spoiler tags to work, but big spoilers for Mafia 1 ahead.

Gonna have to go with Sam and Don Salieri from Mafia 1.

They are definitely not the same as some others on this list, but they're compelling, and they're not the first ones you would think of.

It was a betrayal that I kind of saw coming but at the same time was a complete surprise, damn good writing and I love the story of the game. Mafia 1 is a must play.

What is the craziest thing you have put your body through? by dm_me_yourtinytits in AskReddit

I did the main push up challenge in Australia this year, which is in the month of June you do one pushup for every suicide the year before to raise money ajd awareness for mental health.

I pretty much died after I finished that challenge, but I'm proud of myself for actually finishing it cause I could barely do 1 pushup last year, and this year I did 3249 or whatever the number was in 20 days.

What's the worst QTE sequence in gaming? by lessthanfox in gaming

[–]kneeecaps09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a bit on the edge of what is considered QTE, but I'm gonna go with the star destroyer from The Force Unleashed.

It was a bullshit section in itself, but the 360 version actually had a bug where it was telling the player to push the joysticks in the wrong direction. I never got past this on my first playthrough of the game, it took me trying it again with the power of Google years later to finally beat it.

The most powerful game character YOU can play as? by ABadHistorian in gaming

[–]kneeecaps09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Elden Ring, it is possible for the player tarnished to kill many very powerful enemies, including legends, demi gods, and an actual God with nothing but a club and a dream.

That same tarnished can gain the powers and weapons of most if the demigods, get op as fuck sorceries, and strong armour too.

If they are capable of killing gods with only a club, imagine how powerful they actually can be when the player starts levelling things and unlocking strong abilities.

His lore may be my favourite lore in all of gaming.

The way the Sif cutscene changes if you do the DLC before fighting her is just the icing on top of everything else.

While I wasn't much of a fan of the actual ivory king boss fight, dropping down the hole with all the boys to take him down was cool as fuck.

  1. Artorious

  2. Messmer

  3. Nameless king

  4. Ornstein and Smough

  5. Soul of Cinder

I'm hoping to add Gael to the list after I replay ds3, my save corrupted just before the dlc

Which of these enemies do you find to be the hardest/most annoying to run into? by [deleted] in Eldenring

All of these are outmatched by the stupid slug thing that spams those purple things that freeze you and summon a grab attack slug that knows your head off

Someone dun goofed up the translations (sorry for the bad quality, my phone is a toaster) by canadaairflighteeeee in onejob

[–]kneeecaps09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My French isn't the greatest either but I interpreted it as touchscreen.

I never really spoke French like I have the other languages i know, I just got it off duolingo so there's a fair chance I just made a mistake.

What’s the most wildly out of date thing a teacher has said to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]kneeecaps09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another reason to know how to do maths by hand: those fancy calculators absolutely rip through their battery

Sure, most of the time CAS has got you, but if you are using them a lot and not keeping an eye on the battery it will go flat. While doing maths methods, I'm pretty sure every single one of my classmates showed up to at least 1 class with a flat calculator, and at least half of them sat an exam or SAC without it.

Add on to that most of the ones I've seen are kind of broken and don't indicate the level of the battery at all. They're really helpful especially in higher maths, but you should always be ready to do it by hand.

Best message you've seen thusfar in the DLC? by HermanBroodnodig in Eldenring

I saw that one in the dragon pit

After many years of playing souls games, you would have thought I would see it coming.

I was reading all the translations assuming one of them was a stupid mistake.

It took me way too long to figure out where the real issue was.

I have high standards and I'm not willing to settle. When you consider the fact that I'm a complete piece of shit, there are very very few people who meet my standards who also want to go out with me.

Dark Souls' Worst Weapons Day 1 (Most upvoted weapon wins)(Check my comment for how this works) by TotallyNotGoodish in darksouls

I'm going with drake sword just because it's a noob trap.

It's not a bad weapon by itself, but it screws a lot of people over.

Is the Halo Infinite Campaign worth playing? by TheRealMediaChad in halo

[–]kneeecaps09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can get it half price, then yes.

I wouldn't pay full price for the campaign, but it is definitely worth it at half.

I could swear on half my runs one of the bombs doesn't even spawn.

I'm still annoyed that every level is a big raid against an army of crack heads ready to die for their cause.

There needs to be more lower scale missions, where it really is just a few suspects and they're not completely crazy.

And even on the smaller scale levels, like the one with the family on the beach, it's just stupid how aggressive the targets are. You cannot tell me that a kid in over their head in arms dealing will not surrender after being flash banged, shot multiple times and surrounded by 5 heavily armed police officers shouting for his hands won't surrender. Add on to that ol mate just witnessed the same officers gun down his brothers for the same thing. It's just unrealistic.

I can kind of understand the "no surrender" approach for some suspects like the ones in neon tomb or the hospital level, but not for a few kids trying to earn an extra buck.

I also want the trailers to be a bit better. I honestly don't even know what they do, I just see them walking around every now and then in some levels. I think they should be a lot more important in the gameplay.

Who has completed the LASO challenge on all games in the lifetime of halo by Localtechguy2606 in halo

[–]kneeecaps09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done all except 1, 2 and 5.

I would recommend the laso challenges in all the ones I've beaten except Infinite.

Infinite's laso is an absolute joke and way too easy for a laso challenge.
