I had a beer with Stephen Miller once and now I like him.
lol well I've watched about 3 minutes of tyler1 and he's self-satisfied shouting "gg ez, this is what happens, you still get shitstomped" so I definitely believe he's reformed

mobas kinda make sense as spectator sport where there's peaks and valleys of excitement and the team aspect means there's more personalities to root/jeer for and the top-down view makes it easy to understand what's going on at any given time

now playihng mobas, that's where i'm completely baffled

beep by grandpa posted:

I just had a thought...I was thinking about how every single moba looks the same to me and there are prbably 892483924 meta things going on every given second that I'll never bother caring about and then I realized

do I like lttp rando for the same reasons other people like mobas? :psyduck:

I like LTTP rando too but I don't feel it's the same. It's not a team game and while it doesn't make sense if you don't know the vanilla game there aren't tons of characters with tons of abilities it's just a couple dozen items and you'd know the function of each of them if you played through the game once.

I've posted about this before in the sonic thread but I have this sonic shirt that I bought when I was fat and it was too small for it and my goal was to run a lot and lose weight until it fit and now it fits and now I get lots of attention from women now. Basically Sonic helped me get laid.

no, lttp rando is not about getting irrationally angry at things you can't control. it's about laughing your rear end off at things you can't control and rolling with it.

plus memes about a cane

If you can find the rom I was able to easily emulate the game on a saturn emu back in like 2009 so I'm sure it's even easier to do then!!! :D

i like the idea of mega man zero a LOT but a fatal flaw is that it's a GBA game and there's just not enough screen real estate to go as fast as you wanna, enemies just pop up outta nowhere it feels like

but i played zero 1 and 2 a fuckload when they were new and you can't take that away from me

loved that the final boss of zero 1 was X that blew my mind

guys i love mega man

Theres something about GBA games that look so ugly to me. I dunno what it is but the fidelity of the sprites, background and pallets always look dull and blurry. And this is across a lot of games.

AGREE

I've never played the sonic advance & metroid games on there just cause the screen resolution is so bad it looks hideous to me. I'd probably like them too.

they're just not designed to be played at this high a resolution

also a lot of the palletes are real drat bright because the first revision of the gba didn't have a backlight
