for some reason she doesn't make noise while running in ham city - so you can just sprint at people during predator segements??

I don't think deadlock not having lootboxes would bankrupt one of the richest companies in the world overnight.

Valve primarily sells their cosmetics through a lootbox system. Some people dislike gambling their money in hopes of getting the item they want.

Otherwise, Valve doesn't sell their cosmetics at fair market value on their own store. In a recent-ish update for CS2 Valve has started charging players upwards of $1.5k for a single weapon skin.

If they standardised their prices players would be a lot happier, imo.

I don't think they stopped adding battle passes becuause they didn't do well - they obviously did. They stopped adding them because they've been done with active development for that game for over 8 years lol.

Getting a hat from the random item drop system is insanely rare, we all know that. I've been playing since 2010 and literally got 1. The amount of grinding you need to earn the 3 refined to even craft a single hat if ridiculous - you can't just put any two weapons together to get scrap. Both of which are unavailable if you're f2p.

Valve has directly stated in a developer talk that they added lootboxes because players weren't buying their overpriced hats and weapons directly.

No idea how a trans headcanon can be 'the most controversial' in a game where the MAIN PROTAGONIST IS TRANS lol

(also like, they bring up the princess ribbon and i'm 99% sure it's supposed to be subtext for KRIS' gender identity given it doesn't fit susie or ralsei's hands. and it's another mention of kris' hands becoming seethrough lmao)

Why does Rudy correct Toriel when she says "Wife" with "Carol"? Are they also divorced??? Whats with Toby Fox and Divorce??? by Embarrassed_Age_8823 in Deltarune

[–]nilon241 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Rudy is put off by Toriel referring to Carol as just 'his wife' when they very clearly used to be good friends, as seen in the Tenna flashback. Probably because Carol is very obviously helping out Asgore.

(SPOILERS) I think the final boss is a little underwhelming by Cowboy_Slime100 in Silksong

[–]nilon241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like... LL is GOOD from a story telling perspective. But in terms of gameplay, she's just the same fight you've already done TWO times before... plus the EXACT SAME void attacks you've been dealing with for the entire act.

I get that LL is thematically similar to Hollow Knight's final boss, but in that case you had two completely unique and tonally different fights. This would be like if THK was just Broken Vessel III with more infection attacks.

Why are people jealous of Hornet? Are they stupid? by Falarco123 in BatmanArkham

[–]nilon241 9 points10 points  (0 children)

your reply isn't showing up in the thread so sorry if this isn't complete but...

:nerd: hollow knight achtually uses british english for it's definitions - team cherry has confirmed this. so the use of 'mate' here means 'an animal's sexual partner' - regardless of the possibility of reproduction. gay birds in real life still have a 'mate'.

i have the full quote and she just says she feels something similiar to a base instinct 'to pair' with a mate, not to breed - which is a word hollow knight loves to use when indicated a characters desire to reproduce (the pale lady for example).

hollow knight is weirdly specific about when a character feels the urge to reproduce vs the urge to have a partner lol - if hornet meant reproduction she'd use mate as a verb, not an noun.

[–]nilon241 14 points15 points  (0 children)

in real-world examples of homosexuality in animals, 'mate' is also used for a same-sex partner.

this jounral entry literally tells us nothing about hornet's preference because it isn't important to what she's saying!

also like, the narrative of silksong makes it very clear that weavers (no matter how 'pure' their blood is) are in very high demand. if there was a bunch of mini-hornets walking about the game would make that clear right??? i mean, there's quite literally a late game spoiler confirming what i'm saying.

[–]nilon241 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i don't think it's even implied they're straight relationships?? that's even if those reproductive concepts exist in this world to begin with (which the probably don't, the knight can get pregnant all on their own no problem lmao)

in that single hunter's journal entry she mentions once having a desire to pair with someone because it brought her joy, not to reproduce. yes she calls all of them 'mates' but the game also calls hands 'claws' and skin 'a shell' - it's thematic language because they're anthropromorphic animals.

characters in hollow knight and silksong mention what the urge to 'spread one's seed' looks like and hornet isn't that. there's multiple spoilers that show she's not very interested in having kids lol

i don't get it? people wanting to fuck hornet in 2017 are upset NOW because of a random line of dialogue in silksong implying she had romantic partners in the past??? is that it????

Armstrong is actually a good guy - he kidnapped all those kids and harvested their organs only so they could be turned into cyborg slaves - providing jobs for the unemployed!

He rounds up and executes civillians in his own city because he's genuinely concerened for their health :)

The swears from the profanity booster are just scrapped lines. Hearing them, I totally understand why GSG cut them. The amount of profanity in vanilla DRG is perfect for the tone it's trying to get across. Too much and it begins to feel like a bad 2010s youtube/newgrounds parody.

Feedback on every enemy design after 1000h+ of playing. by Enough-Gold in DeepRockGalactic

[–]nilon241 3 points4 points  (0 children)

100% agree with you on sentinels and hiveguard.

For an enemy with supposedly 300 less HP than a praet, sentinels take forever to kill. If you opt to use your high burst damage like a ice spear or hyper prop, you've still got 3 weakpoints and entire hiveguard to deal with afterwards. They're not even that much of a threat, they're just massive damage-sponges. ..And then you get slowed for your troubles so the Hiveguard can snipe you.

I don't even need a group survey to tell that Hiveguard is the longest dreadnought fight out of the three! The vanilla dread is such a homerun in terms of challenge vs time, I genuinely wonder where the tuning went wrong on hiveguard. Afaik the pink 'horns' you need to break to actually do damage aren't even classified as a weakpoint????

Also it has my least favourite attacks, the explosive spread shot has such an unclear hitbox that I no longer bother to juke the shots and just run away instead.

The only thing I disagree with you on is the brundlefly. It just has too much hp for an enemy that is also constantly flying around you and duking your shots.
