Best experience so far has been getting my first PBP off the ground and running. I'm having such a blast that I'm considering starting a Roll20 game to try out Strike!

Asking for positive feedback only is a good way to not get any good feedback on your game. People will be too concerned with whether or not they're using the right tone to actually give you anything useful.

Slimnoid posted:On the flipside, you could end up with a D&D Next/Pathfinder situation where any feedback given is given token notice before being tossed away. Oh yeah, this is all assuming that they are asking in good faith. It has to start with the intent to actually accept critique.

Ningyou posted:am i like Defective or something if i genuinely kinda liked Ghost Babel and the Ac!d games Nah, I'm mostly joking. Portable Ops sucked, and I never finished Ghost Babel because some jerk stole my Gameboy. Acid was pretty cool, but I've never met anyone who actually liked it.

To be fair, "Second Floor Basement" sounds like nonsense. If it's the second floor of the basement, wouldn't that just be the first floor? And it it's the basement to the second floor wouldn't it be the... first floor? For once I feel like I can identify with Snake.

MadScientistWorking posted:Basements are just floors that are underground hence the reason why you can have multiple basements. Understand that where I come from a basement is something you see on TV. Might as well be something off of Star Trek. So when I first played Metal Gear Solid as a kid, the concept of a "Second Floor Basement" was mystifying to me. Snake says a lot of dumb things in that game, but in that case I was with him.

Esser-Z posted:As somebody who has been places with basements, nah, that's totally normal phrasing. So the Second Floor Basement is lower than the regular basement? Might as well call it the Super Basement or Basement Level 2.

Esser-Z posted:Now I'm reminded of something I want to use in a game sometime: basically inverting the DUG TOO GREEDILY AND TOO DEEP trope. Instead of dwarves mining too far and finding hell, the demons/devils expanded too high and found dwarves. Now, the circle of llife/death/afterlife is being disrupted as the dwarves push into Hell and claim its resources for their own. Fix it? No, see, this is the part where you go on a grand adventure to blow up Asmodeus/Orcus/etc. and retire into the new business of transporting the condemned right back upstairs to the regular world. Sell Hell Insurance to those of low moral character, ensuring that upon finding themselves in Hell, you'll be there to get them back on their feet and on an elevator back to the surface. Exploiting the cosmic cycle of death and rebirth for fun and profit seems like a proper dwarfy thing to do!

Oh wow, I thought that kid was supposed to be the embodiment of "that guy" y'know the one who you hang out with but all he ever does is whine and just be generally very contrarian? It's been a long time since I watched the show, but I remember thinking "yeah, I know a couple dudes just like this guy" and thinking it was stunningly accurate.

MGS5 is GOTY because I can sneak into a Soviet camp and steal every man, mounted gun, vehicle, and cargo container without anyone noticing. There's nothing quite like sneaking up behind a big drat tank and lifting it into the sky, thereby stealing every man inside. Big Boss - Man Stealer

I haven't played Undertale yet, but after hearing all the good stuff about it I totally want to. Gonna have to wait until after I have a few weeks with Taken King, which is installing right now.

I swear when I find the guy who keeps putting up those anime posters on my Mother Base I am gonna throw him overboard. I'll bet its Huey. Its Huey isn't it? gently caress Huey.

I really want to like D-Walker, but I can't justify sacrificing either my dogfriend or Quiet, Snooze Machine. If you could deploy D-Walker as a vehicle I'd always take it but as it stands D-Dog is best for recon and Quiet is awesome for taking out a whole base while I Fulton dudes. Heck, give Quiet the Sinful Butterfly and there's nothing she can't wreck. If I could take them both I would. Heck, just give D-Dog his own sniper rifle and we'd be gold. D-Horse should just be standard. Dunno why it is a buddy at all since it's only good for messing with guards and pooping shenanigans.

Zereth posted:Isn't Snake sprinting with the sprint upgrade faster than D-Horse, too? I actually don't know, but it would make sense. You move pretty drat fast when sprinting. I never get tired of six million dollar manning dudes from out of nowhere with the sprint + bionic arm.

Ningyou posted:real talk I kind of want to get the precision/mobility upgrades so I can run (and reload and crawl and etc.) faster but ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh snake Wait until The Boss DLC comes out and you can dress up your lady soldiers as The Boss. Definitely gonna have to get my S+ combat solider Flaming Buffalo out and go gently caress some poo poo up as the greatest soldier that ever lived (this could only be improved by having Buffalo be an S++ for the true Boss experience but I'll take what I can get).

Ningyou posted:wait can you not rank up yr soldiers past A/A+ or something Maybe? I've seen S and S+ soldiers appear as volunteers or by extracting them, but I've never seen one get to S++ with medals yet, but maybe I just haven't played enough. If I can get Buffalo up to S++ then I'll be all about tearing through whole bases with just CQC while dressed as The Boss. Unless I can get a Patriot in this game which I sincerely hope I can.

Yeah, pretty sure she's guaranteed. Makes me super-excited for that Boss skin, I just wish it was the version with her sneaking suit still zipped up and not the cheesecake nonsense version from the final fight.
