Undertale deserves to win every indie game award for the rest of time so I'm glad of it

Pretty much yeah. Also for me Toby is just a chill dude. Like he's just genuinely happy people enjoy his game.

I feel really old today so thread, tell me about a game you were obsessed with when you were little.

Megaman X. First time I got to try it was my friend had it in mexico. Played the hell out of it. Few years bought a SNES when I was older and Megaman X was my first game I bought.

Hello friends. I am playing the Mega Man games for the first time and all I can do is kill Cutman and then fall off every platform there is. I am very bad at the timing in the platform puzzle things but I know I will eventually get the hang of it and feel like a badass but I hope that happens soon because right now it is a terrible feeling. :(

Megaman one is notoriously difficult.

The Mega Man 1 boss gaunlet sucked. Pretty sure this is was the only game (anyone can correct me if I'm wrong) that the game didn't drop a fat energy pellet when you killed a boss.

I have taken down Cutman, Bomb Man and Fire Man. Literally the only thing in my way are platform things that I will have to try to get a hang of. Ice Man has this one sequence that I simply can't do at all right now and I have encountered the same problem with Elec Man 😑

Being 100 percent honest here. I cheesed Ice Man. gently caress doing that level legitimately.

Do you have to finish elecman's stage to get the magnet beam, or can you just get it and die? The magnet beam trivializes most of gutsman and iceman's stages iirc.

Need Gutsman power to get the Magnet beam.

Bomb Man can destroy those blocks too (I think?)

Not that I recall. It's either Guts Man/Elec Man (Thunder Beam works)

Has anyone made a good joke about how Uncharted sort of has the word shart in it? I feel like there's potential there.

Ok what is your beef with Naughty Dog dude.

Like I noticed anytime ND is brought up you say something negative about them. Like yeah I get Uncharted is not everyone's cup of tea, but I know it's more than Uncharted with you.

Just curiosity. No malice, no HURR you are a hater.

edit: I know you are probably in the industry just like me so it's like ok there's gotta be more. :v:

I don't know how you narrow something like this down.

What do you mean? Lurdraik tends to have reasons for hating or not liking something because of they were a bad person or something. Well most of the time.

I can't think of anything ND did but I could be wrong.

edit: Also I give him more credit than most SA goons who hate games. :v:

I just think Naughty Dog's particular mix of story and gameplay has maximum tedium compared to something like a more traditional AAA game or a Telltale/'walking sim' adventure game. It's essentially story-driven games with a lot of long, linear, unengaging gameplay in between the parts the developers actually care about (the story), which is also very linear and lacks agency. It's the worst of both worlds, basically, and I think their writing isn't very good either, and extremely manipulative in a way that'd make latter day Spielberg blush. They cover up their design and writing shortcomings with cutting edge graphics and top of the line voice acting, just like David Cage.

Like you said, I'm in the industry, specifically an indie dev and freelance writer, so these particular flaws stick out to me. I don't think they're the worst games ever or anything, but they're so beloved that people tend to react pretty aggressively when I clown on them.

But in this particular case I just wanted to point out the game's title sounds like shart, because I'm five.

Thanks for answering me dude. Yeah no i can't blame you if you think of UC or any of their games that way.

I did like UC4 with at least sorta letting you either go guns blazing or stealth. Even though there are some sections where it's pretty much yeah no stealth option.

Hi everybody how was everyone's weekend?

I hope everybody had a good weekend. If you didn't, well, hopefully your week or next weekend are good to make up for it! :D

Was p alright. Finally got to play games on my new PC. It took me a while to plunge into SSD and holy poo poo do things load stupid fast.

I used to have to wait a minute for the pc to finish loading. Now it's just like.. 5 to 10 seconds.
