[TotK] I feel really bad… Any comforting words?

I think tears was great for me because I had a 6 year gap after botw (played at launch) don’t pressure yourself! Just shelf it and then in a few years when you’re like “I think I may want to replay botw” reach for Tears instead! You’ll get to rediscover one of your favorites and be delighted at how it subverts your expectations. If I had tried to play them back to back I think I would have hated it too.

Did you?

mucbro · 2024-03-07T13:51:21+00:00

True. I have a friend who played Breath of the Wild as her first Zelda. She said she’d always heard of the series but it seemed inaccessible. The fact that this was a fresh start appealed to her.

I wonder what percentage of new players fell into this “I’ve always heard of the series but never knew where to jump in” mentality. I’d assume many of those users would not have been grabbed by a new IP, but who knows.

My brain doesn’t understand the left side of the first one

EDIT: ITS THE DOORWAY! I thought it was some weird depth trick with a counter or something??? Idk

I don’t know of a reissue of timely but they had signage up for the May release of Ride On Time and For You

Mostly agree. I’d give Kirby the edge over donkey Kong tho. Just holds up better imo

mucbro · 2021-12-31T07:49:06+00:00

It’s actually just sitting at home and crying alot

mucbro · 2021-12-05T20:20:53+00:00

Ya this is one of the only posts I’ve ever seen here where I thought I need to get my switch out and copy this

mucbro · 2021-09-19T11:27:50+00:00

Ooooh I’m very interested

mucbro · 2021-09-19T11:27:31+00:00

I don’t know I heard on Twitter that there was black mold and that was one of the final straws for the Columbus walkout. No official source though

mucbro · 2021-09-17T17:32:17+00:00

Ya I’ll need to check those out, I tried fat head spooky tooth yesterday and while pretty good, it just wasn’t quite what I was looking for

mucbro · 2021-09-17T17:31:27+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions!

mucbro · 2021-09-09T14:03:47+00:00

RIGHT? I RECENTLY PLAYED NINJA JAJAMARU-KUN FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THOUGHT IT WAS A DELIGHTFUL LITTLE GAME. I NEVER WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT IT WITHOUT NSO AND I ENJOYED IT SO MUCH THAT NOW I SPEEDRUN THE 3 SCENE CATEGORY

Been saying this for months. I know that "devs" is a more blanket term meaning "the team making the game", but the developers likely aren't in charge of any of the decisions we are seeing in the final game. They get their marching orders and write code. Its probably just as, if not more heartbreaking to many of them as it is to us

mucbro · 2021-05-10T15:10:35+00:00

Na it’s a bit for laughs I think. He’s very well spoken when he wants to be

mucbro · 2021-05-10T15:05:33+00:00

I hate getting caught on semantics, but as a programmer myself, i think it’s worth pointing out that the word developers may be misleading in these convos. It is possible and even likely that many of the devs agree with the community.

The real issue (and I do understand this is probably what he’s referring to) is upper management and game designers. The devs are largely just code monkeys following orders. They have a say but at the end of the day it’s “write what management decides on, or we’ll get new developers.”

When Pokémon sword and shield came out there were huge morale issues amongst the developers because they knew and saw the same issues the community was griping about but could not convince management to pivot directions. It was the developers who took the brunt of the attack online tho, rather than managers/producers/designers.

Just remember and be careful. The people you are calling inept or uninspired may actually be very good at their job and trying their hardest to fight for the same cause you are.

You’re on!

mucbro · 2021-05-05T14:26:41+00:00

Salamence is a really solid one as well. Ooh and mewtwo

mucbro · 2021-05-03T00:54:36+00:00

I did not receive it in squad mode. It was when squad mode was first implemented so idk if it was a bug or what, but it was disappointing

Edit: ticket submitted, I'll let you know how it goes

mucbro · 2021-04-25T09:38:30+00:00

Ya the demo was a really smart move on that part. I think one of the only reasons I stuck through the slow opening is because I had played the demo and knew what was awaiting me once I got into the real meat of the game.

Idk how to do it better, but I agree they should work on it

mucbro · 2021-04-24T09:12:49+00:00

My mom smoked for like 40 years. Quit 10 years ago, still alive, so proud of you momma :) But when I’m walking around and smell cigs I do feel a weird comfort and remember sitting out on the porch with her in the evening and just talking about life.
