I'm glad he can play FPSes now, I remember him saying he gets motion sick from them, but I guess he got over that somehow or maybe takes some kind of medication for motion sickness like Gravol or something before playing?

He cleared this up during the D2016 playthrough. Matt and Pat were just full of poo poo. FPS games themselves were never the problem - it's when you're face loving a wall at high speed like people tend to do when they play classic Doom games or any other high-speed FPS is what gives him problems.

The one negative argument I kind of believe is people who feel that the new story kinda hinges on people being familiar with the old game already, so it's less friendly to people going in completely blind, which is fair I think. But being a completely faithful remake would have been way less interesting (and probably less profitable).
Like, did ANYONE give a poo poo about the FF8 remake / reskin or whatever a while back?

That was just a remaster with some improved character models. it was also FF8, so even if it did get the 7R treatment it would be far less of an anticipated release.

Smash is dodging the bullet.

If any company needed to realize how bad their netcode is, it's Nintendo.

Even if they were forced to see how poo poo it is, why would they care? Smash sells because it's videogame crossover insanity. It's only after the hype dies down that people care about how poo poo the online is, and that's after Nintendo has already taken 60 bucks from millions of people.

Woolie plays doom like he's only vaguely heard of first person shooters. It's giving me an aneurism.

To be fair, Woolie has admitted to having gently caress-all FPS experience, and Doom Eternal is probably one of the most demanding FPS games ever that isn't a romhack. It's a character action game with a first-person camera.

When has he ever said someone was a bad person for liking something, and especially that they should die? That sounds like serious projection.

Tae is obviously being hyperbolic. :rolleyes:

Topical, since the point is that Pat has a terrible habit of being hyperbolic on his opinions to the point where he basically invites people to call him crazy. He could have just said "I'm not super big on most of Rare's games/music" and most people would have been fine with it. Instead he has to go "Most of Rare's games were poo poo and their music was clown car circus garbage", and that's never gonna go over well for almost any subject.

New Pokemon Snap shown off, some people upset that it's another Pokemon Snap game somehow (???)

I thought people were only "mad" at the New Pokemon Snap because of how much better it looks compared to the mainline games. Least that's the impression I got from social media going "Why didn't SnS look like THIS?!"

Pokemon will never improve to a satifactory level for older fans because it's a series made for 7 year olds as its target market that comes out a new game once every two years at most. And they have to juggle nearly 1,000 pokemon in the process

I mean at this point I would be completely find if they spent the next couple of gens not adding new Pokemon and instead just actually refining what they have.

Pokemon is in desperate need for the same overhaul that Monster Hunter got with World.

Well no, but for things like SwSh, where they were using the need to model all the pokemon again as their excuse for not letting you import them, that's a problem you can solve by throwing more man hours at it.

Well that was a lie anyway since people definitively proved that the SnS models were the same as the 3DS models.

Dias posted:

My hot take is that Sw/Sh not having all the Pokemon doesn't really detract from the game at all, and in fact might even improve it from a competitive design standpoint.

It would only improve if 1.) Gamefreak actually bothered to rebalance the mons to at least attempt to mitigate the power creep 2.) Didn't add Dynamax which is more broken than Megas or Z-moves were.

What would you say are the best looking and worst looking pokemon of Sword/Shield?

I think the starters are the weakest designs in SnS. So much so that I actually ignored them altogether when I played the game as soon as I caught a Rookidee which is something i've never done.

As for the best? Dragapult, Toxtricity, Corviknight, Grapploct, Grimmsnarl, and Zacian are all great.

When Woolie trains enough, he's decent to place top 8 in any regional (his last real tourney stop was Samurai Sho down where he almost placed Top 8 with a legit bad character until his car mate and pro player stopped him).

He isn't like DPS probably.

Woolie actually retains enough fundamentals to at least be competent at whatever fighting game he wants to play, unlike DSP who just whines that modern fighting games aren't his broken PS1 port of Super Turbo. :v:

I've only played Kiwami 1 and Judgment, but drat if Woolie and V's LP has succeeded in making me want to get Like a Dragon sooner rather than later (so congrats Sega). I know that it's mostly a fresh start for the series until later in the game, so how bad are spoilers for earlier Yakuza games in it?

I am aware that Majima is in 7 at some point, I did get spoiled on that

Most of them are fine (like the one you spoiled), but one of them REALLY assumes you've played 6.

Similar reason why he thought Monster Hunter was a DMC game.

All the more baffling that he played MHW with LANCE of all weapons if he wanted a DMC experience.

On that note, has Woolie expressed any interest in playing MH Rise at all? I know he was all hype for Palamutes being a thing when the game first got revealed but has he mentioned the game at all since then?

In complete fairness to Pat, X-Com 2 even on not-BS difficulties is entirely BS. I tried it out when it became free on PS+ and even on the easiest difficulty I quickly started getting screwed over by lovely RNG.
