Is it? Because memorization is not strategy. Example: I’m playing Red Dead Revolver’s Bounty Hunter mode where I have to complete a level a specific way to win. I have to memorize a particular path a specific way to win. How is that strategy when it’s reliant on clumsy game mechanics?
Mario is filled with trial and error. It's the only way to know which bricks have stuff inside or which pipes you can go down. Still counts even though it doesn't kill you. Of course you could label every question block with its contents, if you are Scrooge McGrinch and want to steal all the mystery and magic from the Mushroom Kingdom.
Well I think Lost Levels is alright
I fully understand and agree where you're coming from, but having been on the opposite side of a "sweating" accusation
It's probably just that Zelda's about wandering around a lush world full of twinks and solving puzzles instead of shooting fifty guys in the face.
But most of these are adult women age +28. That implies at best they had Majora's mask, not exactly femgoon bait. You'd think these Stacy simpletons would rather align with.. Lara Croft. Samus. Peach.
If you want to fight moralfagging with more moralfagging, then go ahead. Im going to continue stealing all the bing bing wahoo that I want, and I'm not going to make excuses as to why it isn't stealing.
It's a digital toy. What word would you prefer people use to describe it?
If you pirate gay porn instead of buying it, it doesn't make you less gay. Like I'm not gonna say, "Oh, I see, you're not financially supporting the gay porn industry with your 100TB gay porn collection! Heil Hitler, my heterosexual brother."
still have not refuted a single thing I said. All you have done is make fun of the idea that ethics should be coherent. That's not an argument, that's just theater.
So the truth is decided by who cares, not by what's true?
If I drive on a road I didn't consent to, that's not an endorsement. If I copy a game someone tried to monopolize using government privilege, that does not mean I morally affirm that system.
And he rejects intellectual property completely, just like I do. Maybe he uses different arguments and logick than I do, but that's beside the point.
What kind of moral system is that?
Still patiently waiting for a real answer
Publicly getting drunk where you're not supposed to is pretty trashy, but I don't see the problem with sneaking food or drinks into a movie theatre. It's a lot like pirating games actually. It's not like movie theatre is losing anything if you do so, nor are they against eating in their building and the mess it might make since they sell you food themselves, they just try to keep you from doing it because it means you definitely aren't paying them extra for their own snack food. Fuck movie theatres, they're overpriced garbage, just like AAA games.
Technically you could say every game in existence has some trial & error on a sliding scale. What's important in whether it annoys people isn't the existence of it but how much of a punishment it is if you fail in comparison to how often you fail. People are generally okay with those types of super hard platformers with frequent and instant checkpoints because failure barely costs any time and you can quickly keep throwing yourself at the part you're failing at. And conversely, people are generally okay with RPGs sometimes having long stretches between save points that could cost you a lot of time if you game over because those tends to be pretty forgiving along the way so it's rare to actually game over. But a lot of people have trouble going back and playing old games from the 80s and early 90s without abusing save states, not because they're too difficult, but because they're fairly difficult while punishing you so much if you die, often forcing a full reset of the entire game if you lose all your lives.
Girls were into the older Links who were relatively manlier. OoT Link always seemed like one of those classic anime vidya husbandos like Cloud and Dante. Or they were pedos who were into shota young Link. Most of the thirsting I see for modern BotW/TotK Link seems to be from gay guys who are into crossdressing twinks.
The movie studios get pretty much all the money from tickets, so the theater makes all its money from snacks (used to be arcades, too). Even under pure lolbertarian theory, the building is the theater company's property, so they're entitled to say what you can and can't bring into it, and if you don't like it, you're supposed to go do something else.
Correct. The kind of autist who creates mods and emulators tends to have somewhat narrow interests and frankly the greatest challenge is wrangling them to maintain that interest.
Schizophrenic Dating Sim seems like its half a shitpost and half unironic insanity.
Allow me.
Thanks to TikTok I've learned details about this game without my consent. Something about household objects turning into people who you can romance and f*ck, like your house breaker box or you day planner or your toilet. Everything I've learned about it just seems more fucked up.
I half agree. For a negative review, I agree. Even "slow burn" stories should be tolerable before the climax, so you can often tell that a game isn't going to be good if it can't bother having a decent intro. However, I think these days due to sheer volume of games that positive reviews need more consideration. After all, so many things can ruin a game that might not be in the first few hours, whether a softlock, grinding, dip in quality, or whatever. I do agree that more people should write reviews, its not hard and can be nice to see peoples' thoughts.
The entire problem is the attitude, not the effort. I don't think there's a problem with enjoying a game that you play it a bunch and try and get good at it. Waste of time maybe, but that could be argued for a bunch of hobbies people waste time on. The issue is diverting blame and being an ass, at least for team games.
