It's not sexual harassment, but it is regular harassment of which Jim Sterling, noted games yeller who I don't much care for, is the victim of. Because he gave a game a good score instead of a great score. The people getting mad about the scoring are the ones that need to be shamed, not the dude who wrote it.

That's a fair point to which I agree entirely. I respect Lurdiak and zaphod tbh.

Doctor Spaceman posted:His career is built on saying provocative things. It's why his videos are titled things like "Steam Needs To Stop Selling Toys Full Of Cum" and "Why It's Morally Okay To Pirate All Of Nintendo's Games", it's why Digital Homicide sued him, and it's why people like him. The company which attempted to sue hundreds of Steam users over negative reviews emphatically did not sue James Nicholas Stanton because he was provocative.

The revenge of naval piranha. e: wait, I guess I didn't 100% it really since I didn't collect all of the miiverse stamps. Are we including those?

I own both and the only huge difference is 3ds has more amiibo skins. I am two Worlds in and they have only given me one of the Poochy levels. It is really fun and I have played it a bunch of times but yeah, that's it.

Night in the Woods looks great and I only heard good things about it. I haven't bought it yet though, finishing HZD will probably take weeks and then there's Nioh, Nier: A and Yakuza 0 to buy and that's like half of this year set for me already.

I'm trying to learn a board game in tabletop sim, a game called Quarriors. Hopefully I will be able to play it with others some day since it looks like fun I hear it isn't that great but I like the idea of just having a whole bunch of dice and rolling and seeing who manages to end up winning after 20 minutes or so.

CharlieFoxtrot posted:What is it about Zelda that it seems to have the most rabid superfans? I mean, I liked Link to the Past but I don't think it changed my life, and I never dug into any of the later ones *looks around cautiously* Don't tell anyone I said this, but... *looks around again* you haven't missed much Seriously, though, here's my big contrarian stance on Zelda: Ocarina of Time was great at the time but rides on nostalgia now. Majora's Mask holds up. Wind Waker has great aesthetics, atmosphere, music, and story (for a Zelda game), but the actual game part is pretty lackluster (and I say this even though I'd list Wind Waker in my top 3 Zelda games, all the stuff I said was great really does propel it upwards for me). Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword just dive head-first into linearity and, for me, boredom. I am, however, happy that the most recent two (non-Four Swords) Zelda games are the two most exciting ones I've ever played, though, and for different reasons.

I played Ocarina 3D as my first Zelda game last year. I know they made a number of improvements to the game but it absolutely holds up, and the only N64 games I've got nostalgia for are GoldenEye and Mario Kart.

I actually haven't played the 3DS version, and the last time I replayed I found myself struggling against the (now-unfamiliar) N64 controls, the frame rate, and all of that. You're probably right that, with the 3DS updates, it's great.

I'm also not a fan of Ocarina of Time. I don't think Zelda works all that well in 3D in general though. Wind Waker's aesthetic are amazing but I wasn't blown away by the gameplay. I haven't played BOTW yet though. Link Between Worlds was perfect
