I don’t like Hollow Knight either even though I like the genre. The art style and controls just didn’t click me with me.

This is pretty inspiring to be honest, and shows a decent way to program if you have a disability that limits the use of your hands.

His game seems to be inspired by spelunky.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

Some of Hollow Knight's design decision just require a certain kind of person. Like some people are going to loving hate the map poo poo while some others like me love it.

It seems like an easy thing to make an option to toggle. The map is also the primary reason I bounced off Hollow Knight

I spent 200 hours in ds2 before realizing I spent most of that time frustrated and hunting for the fun bits. The sensation of progress can be compelling even if it's not satisfying. (And there are always numbers to progress in ds2)

Steam World Quest deckbuilding —

What have you guys been doing? I’ve been keeping 3 of the basic attack cards for each of the party members so I can always build up steam/cogs/whatever

I keep 4 or 5 basic attacks per character, with 3 I was running out of steam way too often.

Don't sleep on mana shield. I made the mistake of switching Copernica to damage dealing once I got an actual healer in the party, but the shield is functionally the same as healing except it ignores max HP and it builds steam instead of costing it. I was a fool to sell the weapon that lets her use the triple shield.

I just finished it and enjoyed it immensely. The ending was wild. It’s basically a side scroller Hotline Miami with a time slowdown mechanic. I am already replaying levels to try different dialog choices and unlocked weapons (I have 1 of 5, not sure how to get the rest yet) after beating it.

Prey was the best Metroid game in years so I def approve this, sub in Dark Samus or SA-X for Nightmare and have Metroids just give you all sorts of cool poo poo. Would work better if Prime 4 took place after Fusion.

Crafting is a plague upon gaming, though it feeds into microtransactions so readily that it’s here to stay.

8.0 update for Zelda, apart from the VR mode, apparently overclocks the CPU during load screens cutting times by like a third.

Loading save from 31 seconds to 21
Warp across map from 20 to 11
Go in shrine from 9.5 to 7

Across the course of the game a huge difference

It really depends on the part of the game you're at because characters get cards that massively change how they function together.

Red decks: Honestly, fire-based stuff is amazing here, especially if you're using the mage. You can combine fire buffs to get like +5 stacking fire damage which does absurd amounts of DPS. The only real downside is that if you run into something that absorbs Fire you'll be kinda screwed, so I recommend keeping at least one or two non-fire attacks or ally buffs in your party so you never quite get stuck.

Blue: Jesus, Blue can do anything. Basically tailor it to your other two characters.

Green: Green is almost as good as Blue. If you run Blue-Green-Yellow (which is what I ended up doing) you can apply a shitload of buffs, Don't sleep on the Healing Up card It builds Pressure and giving it to another character who heals can ridiculously improve their healing capabilities.

Yellow- Yellow is a late bloomer but you can either go full physical or if you get one of their swords that boosts magic you can basically make them a lightning mage/healer and they're extremely good at it. The latter is what I did.

Purple: I didn't do much with purple to be honest because the other characters were already so full.

Everyone hold on.

I know I have to save the universe but I'm carrying 50,000 items and need to drop 46 of the lowest value ones (not sortable) where I'm standing so I can backtrack to the thing that will turn all of this into currency or parts I add together that eventually become a thing.

Hang tight. I'll be back to this spot in 15-20 minutes.


gently caress that noise. I like the Metroid progression. Need a spinning attack? Go shoot the face off the spinning boss and steal its soul. Now you have a spin attack. No farting around in menus constructing a spin attack out of hairbrushes and broken circuit boards.
