I like getting the ring that saves all your souls when you die but breaks, but it only costs 5000 to repair it so you basically get to be OP as hell and never lose souls more than 5000 whenever you die.

But Dark Souls 2 is the worst one, at least according to the 10 hour youtube videos I watch while high.

At one point you find a portrait of pinocchio painted by Dorian Gray and Gepetto hangs it up in his office. Every time you tell a lie the nose on the portrait grows and after enough lies (all of them maybe?) You can snap the nose off and use it as a weapon

Ring is pointless. To get "OP as hell" you have to spend your souls, and if you're spending your souls losing a few every now and then makes virtually no difference. You can be even more OP by taking off that ring and putting on basically any other ring.

Really you're more of an Astro Boy anyway.

Pro tip: that ring also stops old bloodstains from disappearing. So you can run around normally without it and then only put it on after you die, for corpse runs. And you'll still never lose souls with much fewer repair costs.

Disney doesn't own Pinocchio. It's public domain and there are countless adaptations of it that came out both before and after Disney's movie.

Space Kablooey posted:i like textures too much to be on board with this I mean, I love em too, I just like the whole atmosphere of that game and I didn't really like the later games making things feel so personal. I'd just as soon have everyone be robots or spirits or abstract so I don't need to ever think about the human logistics of this warfare. That said, I watched a playthrough after that comment since setting it up to play today seemed like a hassle and I don't have an weird old fashioned pc joystick like my dad and grandpa has that I'd want anyway. The lack of textures is jarring, but absolutely functional in a very minimalist way. Without the HUD and not looking at a mech it might just be an image of a few bars of different flat colours and simple gradients. Really what the main trouble is with it being textureless is they have also no shadows and the Mechs are all different sizes, you can't tell if something is really far away or just literally small. There are times where tiny Mechs not much bigger than a human are meant to harass you out of drop ships or whatever, but they almost look like they normal large Mechs that are just clipping through the floor and falling through the floor and falling infinitely, but still visible. Then it's disorienting to approach them because they don't get much bigger like you'd expect and suddenly they're like underfoot and you have to awkwardly aim down at your invisible feet and near ground area.

I think they just thought it would be goofy or something if he was called Pinocchio? IDK, everyone else had the names. It's like in zombie movies or shows how they can't just call them zombies they have to make up some other stupid name.

Pinocchio is so old that it entered the public domain the same year as the Disney movie, probably a deliberate choice on Disney's part so they wouldn't have to pay anyone for the IP

Both to distingiush it from other Pinocchio things and also it's easier to say and write which is good for worldwide audiences.

I have no idea what Lies of P is but it's a really bad title and every time I read it my brain starts thinking 'Piss Don't Lie' to the tune of that Shakira song.

4 hours into Baldurs Gate, and I gotta be honest, it doesn't seem that good. I think there's a ton of effort there, and I find it very impressive, but I don't really see the game in it? It feels a bit like the old hitman games, where you scout an area to try and find alternatives to just going in hot, you find something you think is a clever and cool way to handle things, but then you do something like pick up a stone and suddenly the town goes hostile and you have to fight. Only, having to fight everyone feels very much like a 'fail state', you no longer get to pull off the cool poo poo, and the game just goes ALL IN on not allowing you anymore, like it's very much a binary "Sneakily do the cool thing" or "Nah, you triggered one of the myriad arbitrary bad-checks and now you've failed and have to fight", and the fighting is always definitely the easier version of events. Like, just walking up and starting a fight gets you to the solve state quicker than everything else, but, it's boring. And it feels like it's boring on purpose? I never really got that. Yeah, sure, it's early doors, but so far it's doing more to annoy me than make me wanna play more.

Like, just walking up and starting a fight gets you to the solve state quicker than everything else, but, it's boring. After a while, the devs stop doing this insanely high level of interactivity and smart solutions, and near the end of act 1, the entire game is basically walking up and starting a fight and there's no real choice past that beyond exactly where, when, and how you start the engagement to minimize which mobs of temporarily neutral npcs aggro you. Like I keep saying. It's not a bad game. It does come out swinging, but in reality it's just another average infinity engine game clone except you have a Jump command. Which is more of a description than a criticism. But that also means it's kind of mundane. Fur20 fucked around with this message at 02:57 on Feb 11, 2024 |
