The Flood / Re: Why aren't you a Communist?
« on: January 17, 2018, 10:46:24 AM »
I am not knowledgeable or in agreement with the tenants of any specific ideology enough to choose to subscribe to it. I just show an interest in and abide by certain ideas and values.

With that said, communism has always looked particularly unappealing to me. What with the whole starving nations thing or being worked to death in a gulag because I disagree with the state.
none of those were actually communist

this actually just depends on your resolution

the way it looks for you at 150% is how it looks for me at 100%, because my laptop is very small

And it's out.

reminder that previous owners of SFV get all of AE's content for free via patch

capcom living up to their promise, kind of

Sakura is free to play for a week, all characters have been rebalanced, and all single-player methods of obtaining FM are now gone (but you can still level up your characters to gain FM just fine).

I'm not home yet so I haven't had a chance to evaluate all the new features, but I'll be sure to do so for the two people who care.

Can you imagine just how dull and boring a world without potentially offensive behaviors would be? What a dystopian nightmare.
it doesn't really sound all that bad to be quite perfectly honest

So I'm guessing a lot of new players are going to be playing for the first time on the remaster. I can't wait for all the crying and complaints.

'How the fuck am I supposed to kill the Asylum demon with a broken sword?'
'Who the fuck puts a black knight in the second area?'
'How the fuck do I get past this fucking cunt of a dragon'
'How do I beat that rocky dildo looking motherfucker down the tower?'
some of which will be valid

the game doesn't really have what i would call a strong start

But they released Yellow alongside Red and Blue
Yeah, but I think Yellow wound up dwarfing Red and Blue in terms of sales, though, so this was a course correction.

Yeah, it releases on the 26th. They didn't release it with Gold and Silver for some silly reason.
well, because everyone would've just gotten crystal

Actually, sports games that don't try to be anything else other than a perfect simulation of the sport are probably well beneath that.

I couldn't pinpoint one, since I mostly just have a laundry list of games in my mind that I just consider "bad," and though I like listing things, I've never really bothered to list out in order what my definitive least favorite games are.

I tend to detest extremely popular games that are a 5/10 at best, the best example of which is probably Skyrim.

Steak is shit, there's nothing appealing about a chewy tasteless slab of meat unless you're primal of course
You've never had a decent steak in your life, it really shows.
Dude I've eaten steak at one of the most expensive steak houses in London and it was meh
And how did you order it?
Well done I think he said is how he eats steak [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
why would you eat steak any other way
are you retarded
no, because i realize that you have to cook raw food before you eat it
so yes
you know what's appetizing

a thick slab of what looks like your mother's vagina on her period

mmmmmmmmmmmm
Medium rare is ideal and it's nothing like that
medium rare is for disgusting degenerates and my description was spot-on
No it's for people who understand how meat is supposed to be cooked, and are aware of what good flavour is.
so not you

this is absolutely the most senseless and boring thing to be elitist about, but we all have to find something i guess

wanderer clothes/eastern armor, depending on whether i want fast rolls or more defense
winged spear/butterfly horn + grass crest or eagle shield (still trying to find a stronger greatshield that suits me)
power within, fire orb, combustion, cast light, aural decoy
wolf/cloranthy ring with havel's
black bow of pharis for aggroing grouped enemies individually (is that considered cheesy too? idc)
emphasis on VIT, END, and DEX

i shortly discovered that dark souls is a game that rewards patience and defensive play, and being able to attack while shielding is sexy as hell, so it wasn't long before i decided to exploit that—power within might be a strange spell to use, but it's carried me through some of the tougher bosses in the game, and i feel like a badass kaio-ken warrior using it, so that's a thing

i also have a boner for stamina regen, and it would be dope if there was a greatshield with that effect

when i get back to playing, i still have to fight nito who i only have a single attempt on

he seems pretty tough though, so i'm actually considering putting on the ring of fap, which i've been saving

Honestly, as long as your not using magic I have no issue with how you play.
do utility spells/pyromancies count

power within, cast light, aural decoy, etc.
[snip]
It's always been a strange mentality for me, and it's never quite been how I saw it.

I don't like using offensive magic much, simply because it's not my style, but instead of viewing it as a way to make the game easier, I view it as me making the game more difficult. The game is providing me with tools to beat it with relative ease, and in my eyes, whatever tools it provides you with is 100% fair game.

If they didn't want me to cheapen the experience by using magic, they wouldn't have made magic so powerful. If it's somehow a crazy oversight, then that's certainly not the player's fault.

I know you're not claiming that it's an unfair mechanic, but if one is so concerned with making the game too easy for themselves, where do you draw the line? I could easily argue that anyone's playstyle is baby easy mode because they're not doing a SL1 Depraved run with no weapons, couldn't I?

I have a friend who is a self-described "hardcore casual." He loves video games, but specifically chooses to be as casual as possible, because that's what's most fun to him. He'll never play anything competitive, and he always plays on the easiest mode possible (even in games like Persona, which basically just removes the ability to lose). He simply doesn't care about being challenged; he only wants to have fun.

Despite this, I've been trying to get him into Dark Souls for a long time, because I think there are several aspects of it that would appeal to him (namely the world, lore, atmosphere, story, etc). Although he's interested, he's always told me that he'd specifically go out of his way to make the game as cakewalky as possible with lots of magic and summoning NPCs for every boss, because dying hundreds of times to bosses he refuses to "get good" at fighting is not his idea of fun. So, we've agreed to do a co-op playthrough where I'm essentially taking care of all the bosses for him while he assists me with magic spells, because he values that aspect of the game a lot more. The teamwork.

I've tried explaining to him that much of the game's appeal is the triumph of overcoming these obstacles yourself, but he's just not interested in that whatsoever. He explained that his playstyle couldn't possibly cheapen the experience for him, because he simply would not have even tried the game had there not been ways to make it easier. He's well-aware that his mentality will not be respected among veterans of the series, but he doesn't mind. The reason he labels himself as a hardcore casual is because that's what everyone else called him, but instead of getting bent out of shape over it, he took it in stride and proudly accepts the label.

And honestly, I respect him a lot for sticking with his waterpistols. At the end of the day, I'd rather him play Dark Souls with me and have fun with it than have him go it (mostly) alone and put it down after deeming it "too hard."

So yeah, what I'm trying to say is that I just don't really care how anybody plays. Unless you're cheating or using mods, I couldn't be fucked what you do to win. There are certainly more impressive ways to beat the game, and I'm certainly not gonna resort to using magic or summons any time soon, but if the one thing preventing somebody from playing a great game is the difficulty, and they have an option to curb it for their sanity's sake, I won't begrudge them that. I can't imagine lambasting somebody over a preferred playstyle.
