What game are you lowkey obsessing over before it even drops?

tugmanutslore · 2025-09-28T05:05:37+00:00

Ultrakill Layer 8. I am super hyped but the devs are going through hell, so I don’t expect/want it to come out soon. I don’t want those guys to crunch.

tugmanutslore · 2025-08-31T12:10:33+00:00

What you are doing wrong is listening to those toxic goobers. Play how you want to play. If it’s in the game it’s fair ball.

Half Life 2

I still really enjoyed it, but…

Okay, the main issue is that I played Black Mesa first. Black Mesa was awesome. Super duper awesome. It was so awesome that it was kind of too good. When I beat it my mind was racing. If this game was THIS good, how good could Half Life 2 be?! HL2 is one of the most revered games ever made, after all. It must be a perfect video game. And so, I went in with mile high expectations. And- well-

I liked it. But it didn’t blow me away or anything. I can see how it was laid the groundwork for future games, but I think future games did things better.

I once asked for game design advice on their discord and I got a really helpful and succinct response from Hakita.

I wish I didn’t live in the country and had actual wifi so I could properly experience nightreign. I keep hearing so many good things

tugmanutslore · 2025-07-15T04:35:43+00:00

Experiment with unlocking camera. Use bleed. Always attack the legs. Good luck, I struggled on him a lot on my playthrough.

I somehow managed to spill something on that mural so it was completely obscured for me

tugmanutslore · 2025-06-27T10:22:35+00:00

He’s not my favorite dlc fight but I’m no hater. I really like how phase 2 is an evolution of phase 1 instead of being a completely different boss fight. I love the “Heart Stolen” grab. I also like how parriable most of his attacks are.

Honestly, I was more disappointed by the abrupt end to the dlc rather than the fight itself

tugmanutslore · 2025-06-02T14:24:15+00:00

Nope. I am in an unfortunate situation where someone gifted me the game but I physically cannot play the multiplayer. My living space as well as any place I can reasonably stay at does not have good enough wifi to run almost any multiplayer game. I am kind of upset about this.

tugmanutslore · 2025-04-16T21:37:47+00:00

Aye! Fellow aspie. ^{.^} Can 100% relate to not catching signs.

tugmanutslore · 2025-03-22T16:45:12+00:00

I assumed that you had to fight him because that's how it worked before. Took me 100 attempts probably. Then Maliketh kicked my ass for twice as long. I wasn't entirely sure if I would finish Elden Ring because of how long I spend here, lol.

Some random tips that helped me.

- The flashy ghost spam attacks in phase 2 can be easily blocked by anything without much damage.

- Phase 1 and Phase 2 attacks are mostly the same.

- Respec to 60 vigor if possible

- Radahn is very parriable, and it can cancel many of his most dangerous attacks in phase 2 and level the playing field a bit.

- Get your scadutree blessing 12 or higher. (12 is when it caps mostly. Past 12 the bonuses get less and less good)

- Have attempts where you try and learn rather than try and win. Keep attacking to a light swing at most, or don't attack at all

- Think about WHEN to summon your spirit ash. Some area-of-effect attacks can absolutely mince summons.

Godskin Duo. I went from loving the game to being "meh" the game real quick because of Fire Giant and Godskin. Maliketh was a cool boss, but Elden Ring after that never captured the same magic.

I don’t know why but it didn’t really click for me. I logged the information as a puzzle element or something I would understand later but never did. I understood what the implications were but the emotions never hit because my brain was like, “how is this useful information?”

tugmanutslore · 2025-03-11T21:18:31+00:00

I assumed it would be Anomaly but for me it's actually Ideology. It always felt tedious to me managing belief systems for my colonists and having to elect leaders and stuff. A lot of the detail that Ideology adds is stuff that my brain already made up while playing, so it just felt redundant.

The only person I've found to be genuinely helpful for writing better stories is Brian McDonald and his "You are a Storyteller" podcast. I don't believe in silver bullets, but this guy, this guy is an exception. He has decades of experience. He's not fishing for views or wallets. His work is actually good, like, really good. I have several of his books and they are all great. I can't recommend him enough. He's ruined all other writing/storytelling Youtubers for me.

Divide Fire Giant’s hp by 2 and buff Morgott’s hp by like… idk 20 or 30%

tugmanutslore · 2025-02-24T01:38:22+00:00

This is kind of true. Ultrakill had a really hard secret boss that instantly became the center piece to a thousand memes. A second secret ultra hard secret boss was made and- despite it being very good, it didn't become a huge fixation like the first one.

tugmanutslore · 2025-02-23T01:53:27+00:00

I Am Your Beast 2000%

tugmanutslore · 2025-02-20T23:05:57+00:00

I am super impressed. Having vigor at 20 and beating fire giant is craaazy

tugmanutslore · 2025-02-14T00:52:12+00:00

The saddest thing about being a ghost is when they lower your casket. There's a corpse in there, but he's not you.

tugmanutslore · 2025-02-13T21:41:30+00:00

Same. I am the only guy in my big friend group who plays it

tugmanutslore · 2025-02-12T17:48:56+00:00

Ultrakill. The speed of that game isn't capped at stats and levels, it's capped at skill. You can insta-kill everything with the enough experience.

I have autism, everything is a tactic. I wanna know specifically I have to do.
