When a game scales up a doodad as a landscape feature I like to try and spot the original size ones throughout the game.

I remember having my mind blown when someone told me there’s only one rock 3D model in Halo, and it’s always rotated or partly submerged in the ground so you don’t notice

Now that I'm getting the hang of it I really enjoy the movement in Spiderman 2 despite how much more technical and touchy it is compared to the newer games. Dislike the combat a lot though

Khanstant posted:As far as I could tell 13 sentinels was sad kids get into to the robot shinji'd with a twist that's even sadder. That 100% ain't it. It's a mystery / intrigue story with a bit of a sci-fi twist. Also, according to the internet, I'm the only person on Earth who liked the gameplay.

I've said this in the past but 13 Sentinels is legitimately great science fiction. It also happens to be a complex and layered mystery.

I don't like rts games in general. 13 Sentinels was a slog during the combat, but the story was fun.

I get why they went for the aesthetic they did but 13 Sentinels would have been a lot better if the strong Vanillaware aesthetic carried over to the fights. I think the graphics they chose were probably the only thing they could do on a budget but I think it detracts from the game as a whole.

My kid loves yakisoba pan and shares it with his best friend every time I make it. He only tried it because of the game.

Is there a thread for stupid "gamer" culture like that whole goonergate/stellar blade thing? Or are such threads too difficult to moderate and therefore banned?

WoW subforum has wowplayers.txt, which is just straight up dunking on dumb posts/angry posting/bigots videogames.txt would probably be a cool thread, but you'd need similar rules. - no dunking on Goons. - Source your quotes - Take discussion to other threads when possible Not sure if something like that would have enough legs in it before it crawled up it's own arse with drama, but there's always tons of video game nothingburgers to dunk on Rarity posted:
