I just played through Luigi's Mansion (original) for the first time and got a Rank E house lmao the amount of money you need to get high ranks must be absurd. Also I still had three Boos left but I didn't know where they were at all and then when I beat the game it overwrote my save file with a NG+ without warning me so I guess I'm done.

Olive Garden tonight! posted:It's actually way, way harder to get the lowest grade mansion because you have to basically avoid all money forever. Good to know E wasn't the lowest then. So King Boo doesn't count as a boo? But that one boss that was like 20 boos in one does?? Still a mystery where those last three were. I checked all the rooms over again and nothing came up on the boodar. There are two greyed-out rooms on the map (one of them has a door that's boarded up). Is there a way to get in there or something?

Captain Invictus posted:I've been watching some Lufia 2 Ancient Cave speedruns recently, spurred on by this one in two hours during RPG Limit Break 2016(definitely a pro-watch): So basically a roguelike with turn-based battles then? I'm not sure if such a thing exists apart from the aforementioned FF roguelike romhacks. I liked the Ancient Cave. One of those one-off neat ideas that just never reappeared in games since.

Phantasium posted:I also remember when there was supposed to be a movie with Adam Sandler overcoming his depression by playing Shadow of the Colossus for some loving reason. Reign Over Me. It wasn't so much that he was doing it to overcome depression but rather Wander's gradual possession by Dormin was supposed to represent the slow deterioration of Sandler's mental state or someshit. It's very weird, though I haven't watched it.

So now I'm kicking rear end in Bloodborne and saying "Thank you, Union." I'm going to go kill the hard guy with the big scythe, who I literally forgot about. I probably shouldn't be working too for the same reason but I have all of these papers to grade so I might just plink away at them at home today and just not work tomorrow lol.

OK I'm playing through Kingdom Hearts for the first time and this game is actually pretty bad, holy poo poo. Everything is pretty much expected until you hit a boss battle and suddenly it's a damage race between two-hit kill attacks and your idiot teammates cramming potions up your rear end in time. I'm at the second Ursula battle right now and it's just so, so bad. So bad.

Okay I beat Ursula. Grinding out just one level and putting on Thundara Rings helped big time. Please tell me no more levels take place in the ocean (Monstro doesn't count) because in video games combat and navigation is not necessarily better down where it's wetter.an actual dog posted:I would avoid gimmicky savings programs and apps you read about on gizmodo.

Sakurazuka posted:Ursula is basically designed to teach you that Aero is the most broken spell in the game No kidding, that helped me out a lot too. Guides online say the battle gets harder when you cast Aero because she increases her lightning attacks or something but after playing it myself that seems like it's bullshit.

I normally listen to podcasts at work but because I'm grading papers and find the chit-chat distracting I'm listening to video game music on YouTube. I dunno if I said this before or not but the Killer Instinct 2013 soundtrack is a work of art and you all should listen to it. It's composed by Mick Gordon, same guy who did the new Wolfenstein and Doom games.

I've been following it for 10  One of the most underrated webcomics was Amazing Super Powers. It was just one-off jokes and gags, similar to SMBC and C&H, with a few animated shorts. The authors found there's more money to be made in mobile games so they just update the site once every six months to advertise their new game. It was just last week when I finally killed it from my daily browsing, as I realized the comic isn't coming back. For what it's worth the games seem pretty good and they keep the comic archive alive so check them out. There's also the shameless PBF knockoff Truck Bearing Kibble that was pretty funny when it surfaced and very quickly died like ten years ago. The site has been down for a while now though.

I used to consider myself proficient at many video games until I started to check out online communities for such games. Here are the ones I consider myself "best at" - Super Mario Bros - Super Mario World - Super Metroid - Metroid Prime - Turok Dinosaur Hunter I can't get anywhere close to speedrun levels or anything but I can practically play through those games with my eyes closed and that's probably good enough.

I bought it and spent more time trying to apply mods to patch it vs. just downloading gzdoom and being done with it and refunding the version on steam. The Steam versions should still come with WAD files though?
