Gaming / Re: Pokemon Thread (Massive Spoilers Page 49 and Beyond!)« on: November 21, 2016, 09:54:06 AM »Those who have it, is it good?I'm having a good ol' time. Plot-wise, they took a lot of liberties to make this one a totally unique and compelling experience--it really stands out from the other games in a lot of ways, namely with what they replaced the gyms with. X&Y were cool and all, but they kinda felt a bit soulless and superficial to me (it was based on France, after all). This game brings it back with a lot of charming yet subtle elements. The game's humor is some of the best in the series--Team Skull bringing the most of it in. I've cracked up laughing at least twice, which is very rare. Ultra Beasts take a while to show up, but when they do, they're pretty awesome. Gameplay-wise, it's Pokémon. The new critters range from "fucking awesome" to "fucking godawful," but even the worst of the shitters still have a degree of charm to them. Many attack moves and smaller gameplay details have been revamped for the competitive folk, but you probably don't care too much about that. Z-moves, while still dumb, are a lot less dumb than I thought they'd be. They executed it in a surprisingly tasteful way. The game's packed with features, and I only scraped the surface here. There's something in it for just about everybody. My issues have been sparse and minor: the beginning of the game is slow as fuck, and takes a bit of patience to plow through. All the characters are so fucking happy and sweet, you could get diabetes pretty easily. Collecting Zygarde pieces is lame and stupid (but I think Zygarde itself is lame and stupid). Overall would recommend, it's pretty dope. Not close to beating it yet, but I've sunk my teeth in pretty deep. 12243

One of my friends managed to catch something with Pokérus, and now we're spreading it amongst ourselves.
Also, if you've already beaten the game you're a faggot. Taking it slow master race. 12244

Gaming / Re: Skyrim playthrough« on: November 19, 2016, 11:47:18 AM »Not really a "debate," I thought we were having a pleasant conversation. Albeit with big blocky messages.I do intend to try out some mods after beating the game normally, by the way. Just gonna get some achievements first. If the developer supports mods, or finds a mod and gives it their blessing, then by all means--use it. I still wouldn't, though. 12266
Gaming / Re: Skyrim playthrough« on: November 19, 2016, 04:35:09 AM »[snip]Yeah, I can definitely see the appeal of that--especially if you've already beaten the game normally and want to try out something new. It's why I exclusively do nuzlocke challenges when playing older Pokémon games, because playing the game normally is frankly just boring as fuck now. Setting restrictions on the number of Pokémon you can catch, releasing them when they faint, etc. tends to add an interesting take on the game to increase its shelf life, so I absolutely understand the need to try out new things every once in awhile. And I appreciate the imagination that goes into your role-playing and such, too--and if mods help with that, then that's cool. I can do all that stuff without mods, though. They're just not for me. I can spin a neat little story for my avatar in my head, and if the game doesn't allow me to see his breath fuming when he's out in the elements or whatever, I can deal with that. It's not gonna adversely affect my immersion if I can't see the individual veins on all the leaves of this low-res, low-poly tree that's barricaded by a set of invisible walls. It's very easy for me to look past that stuff. Adding hyper-realistic shit in for the sole purpose of immersion would paradoxically make it less immersive for me, because (like I said) I tend to find it so very inconsistent with the rest of the game's design. If your goal is total immersion, I think you should go all out--but there comes a point where you're not really playing Skyrim anymore. Not to mention, there are various aspects of the real world that don't translate well to video games. If you wanted to make Fallout 3 more immersive, you'd have to install a mod that alters the mechanics of limb-breaking. That is, if you break your legs, you'll be rendered completely immobile, and you'll just bleed out and die. Because that's what would happen--that's the authentic, hyper-realistic breaking-your-legs-in-the-middle-of-nowhere experience. I don't really know where you modders draw the line between "immersive" and "fun," but that would be a huge conundrum for me. It would be hard for me to justify cherrypicking the little aspects and nuances of nature and physics without also adding the ones that would likely make the game less fun to play--because consistency matters to me when it comes to immersion. You shouldn't be able to set a campfire if there's no danger of burning your tent down, for example. Not the best example, but you see what I mean. So, ultimately, when it comes to games, there's just something about the idea of working with the tools you've been given that I just value and hold sacrosanct. For me, mods just needlessly complicate things, at best. A lot of that is my own attitude, but I think my attitude is justified, if a bit fastidious. 12267
