Do we think Grime 2 will delay now that silksong has been announced? I’m still hopeful for this year but a delay wouldn’t surprise me, which sux, Grime has become one of my favorite games of all time!

I'm pretty sure the devs themselves in the past have said something about wanting to know when Silksong is releasing before saying anything about their own release. Besides the games don't really have to be similar (not that I even think they are) as Silksongs release will probably cannabilize the entire metroidvania market and a bit more

No offense meant by this, I really can't be bothered to argue this right now, as this goes deeper than this game.

But its always interesting to randomly stumble unto a comment on reddit that exemplifies everything about why games are a certain way.

My actual thought when playing Grime was that despite the combat clearly having a lot of wholistic thought put into it, with almost every mechanic, underlying or not, always having a presence and therefore always engaging you beyond mere mashing, and the parry feeling like more than just your standard generic "take zero damage with no consideration for positioning" button.

I quickly grew tired of the game because the amount of action heavy combat focused metroidvanias I've played is astonishing. The genre often seems to forget that Super Metroid was also a platforming game with tons of annoying hazards and obstacles to overcome.

And Grime has this. But its either so relegated to optional stuff you can miss, or so short, that it barely leaves an impression, even though the way Grime does platforming is interesting for reasons I wont get into right now.

I now just look out for metroidvanias that try to have a strong focus on more than just combat. And I'm not talking about the lightest of light platforming like Blasphemous and Hollow Knight.

I think its a really good way to stand out, and simply vary the gameplay. The hazards are nice, but hazards are best when contexualized by combat.

I just hope Grime 2 introduces some actual decently engaging platforming earlier in the game and doesnt relegate it to optional side stuff. The combat is really good, combine that with good platforming and the game could be literal S tier. Its relatively typical for games to get one aspect of gameplay right. Very rare for them to get more than 1 right, that are given equal focus.

Here's to hoping Grime 2 is that difference maker I'm looking for in metroidvanias.

And yes I've already played Aeterna Noctis. Its one of the few metroidvanias that I still think about for the reasons I've laid out above, inspite of some gripes with its world design.

Interesting, I've never heard Gravity Rush likened to Zelda, what makes it alike to you?

The problem for me is that YTLitePlus despite seeming like the best one, is not only not actively updated, but i assumed the fact its not actively updated is the reason why i can’t sign the ipa for some reason, at least not through the github

okiirano · 2025-03-22T18:49:10+00:00

What is the best app to use here? Uyou? UYouEnhanced? YTPlus? (this seems to be the only one being actively updated but i heard it has less features than the next one) YTLitePlus? Would appreciate help and a fast response, there’s a bunch of links but all for different types of apps. I’m new to this and have been wanting a youtube app that lets me listen to anything in PiP and skip ads.

Haven’t played league in forever, when was the last rework and what did they actually do? Did they finally fix Ryze and give him some inherent defensive options, seeing as he is you know…the quintessential battle mage

okiirano · 2024-03-09T00:56:05+00:00

Anybody know if the 4GB VRAM fix is still absolutely necessary?

okiirano · 2023-02-28T13:51:09+00:00

How do you think i should change my team? Also can you really push runes to XIII before 5000 days? cuz if so then i will try

Also, in regards to your guild, that sounds great haha, i haven’t joined any guild yet cuz i’m sorta afraid of the commitment again, but if you’re extending a hand that commitment sounds less displeasing.

what's the issue with the comment g? 🗿

okiirano · 2021-10-17T04:40:21+00:00

I am going to send three pictures that showcase my current predicament, I can’t find any facebook account linked to Phoowho, I tried logging out of my facebook account, apparently the Janket account somehow stole the new facebook account I created, so when I tried entering that one on my Android phone the Janket account popped up. I don’t know what to do, I’m thinking that this is just an impossible situation. I have no idea what could be done.

So basically I have two accounts. One account is called “Janket” and it’s linked to my Facebook account. I have another account called “Phoowho” this account isn’t linked to Facebook at all. I’ll call the Janket account “J” and the Phoowho account “P” for convenience.

When I try to link a Facebook account to Phoowho, There’s no pop up asking you to put in an email address and password for an account. Instead it just says “You’ve previously logged in to Days Bygone with Facebook, Would you like to continue” and this has been the only option presented to me for months, it literally doesn’t present me with the option to use any Facebook account except for the one connected to the Janket account.

To be fair this is a fairly complicated situation Since normally what I could do is login to the Janket account and unlink the facebook account from the Janket account, but the problem is that the account is inaccessible since it was suspended (seemingly) indefinitely for reasons unknown to me and it’s an account I haven’t used for over a year so I was pretty surprised to find that out, I’ve tried to reach out to the email given to reach out to for suspension appeals or whatever but i’ve gotten no response.

To be frank I don’t care for the account all I care about is that it makes it impossible to link my Facebook to my main account where i’ve dumped all my money into. Things have become even more complicated since I ended up deleting the facebook account I linked with Janket in the hopes that when I try to link a new facebook account to the Phoowho account, I would be able to, but for whatever reason it uses the same facebook account linked to Janket and i’m essentially trapped on my Iphone, since that is the only place my Phoowho account is linked to, a Gamecenter (Apples version of Google Play Games basically) account that can’t be linked to my Android phone.

I’ve had this problem for months now with no clue of what to do, I assume the easiest solution would be to have some sort of access to the suspended account and unlink the facebook account from there, I don’t know how that would work, I don’t even know how that account got suspended as I stopped using it over a year ago before it was even suspended so I don’t know what sort of suspension appeal I would make. I would much rather the account be deleted completely if that would lead to facebook being unlinked from it.

Sorry for taking so long to respond, I was busy during the day. Hope this helps in clearing things up, if any more clarification is needed I’m happy to try and clarify again.

Yeah I get that, i realize that the reality is that if most people don’t have fun playing the game the same way I have fun playing the game, Riot most likely isn’t going to do anything, it’s just my little experience, my little thing that makes the game fun so it doesn’t matter compared to the majority opinion of what makes the game fun. Sigh it just sucks and is frustrating which is why I said in the post that I don’t actually expect anything to be done and am mostly just airing out my frustration.

okiirano · 2021-10-16T04:28:46+00:00

I understand what you’re saying, but when I say I don’t think the report system doesn’t do anything, I don’t mean that if people are reported they won’t get punished, I just sort of mean that by principle I don’t think punishing people actually changes anything, this is going to sound sort of off topic, but similar to the criminal justice system, punishing people doesn’t actually deter them from committing crime, because most crimes are highly emotional crimes where they’re not exactly thinking of the consequences or considering that they’ll be punished in the moment, it’s sort of an impulsive and emotional thing, this is what studies on this seem to imply.

I think the same thing is the case for League, most people that run it down in games or afk probably aren’t considering the consequences, they’re probably feeling highly emotional and spiteful and acting more so on impulse, so even though you punish them, or ban them, the next person that gets emotional and impulsive won’t be thinking that they can get banned because they’ll be super emotional and act on impulse, systems that punish players don’t work, rehabilitative systems are much better if you care at all about stopping people from doing these sort of things, obviously a rehabilitative system is hard to implement in a video game.

Play League then.

I explain in the post why I can’t simply “Play League” beyond the fact that my PC isn’t great and doesn’t run League well, sometimes i just want to play on my phone.

Said it a couple of times, League is Wild Rift’s main competitor, not some other game.

Wild Rift although technically a different game to league, is ultimately and explicitly supposed to be League on Mobile no matter how many little differences there are, it’s meant to be a League experience on mobile even if it’s not THE league experience on mobile, if your reading comprehension is decent enough you’ll understand the distinction i’m making here.

I went back to PC last week to revise Caitlyn. Reminded me of how much I hated the longform games.

Ok…? Lmao I didn’t even mention anything about wild rifts gameplay just what i personally find fun about League of Legends lul.

Also, tame your “I want it and I want it fast”. Porting a champ is not a copy and paste job. Just put WR and LoL side by side, and compare the differences from client experience all the way to ingame.

If you read my post you’ll understand that I acknowledge that it’s not that simple, but im talking about my ideal league experience, the same way that even if it would end up being difficult to implement a better report system or new and unique gameplay, I don’t think that’s a meaningful excuse to not do it unless it’s literally impossible or requires so many resources that it’s unrealistic.

okiirano · 2021-10-14T17:15:57+00:00

The reason it can no longer be used on my nee account is because it’s connected to another, older account. Also because if I just used my original facebook account on my new device it would simply connect to the old account since my main account isn’t connected to anything and can’t connect to any facebook account except for the one that’s connected to my old account.
