video games as power fantasies is great because you can immediately tell who would be a tyrannical fascist if you gave them an ounce of authority

is there a specific phrase for encouraging people to try achieving platinum on a game, like "tap dat plat" or "plat dat" or "hittin plat" if not I'd like to submit any of the above for consideration

"you shat if you ain't plat" could also work

"gat mad plats" obviously

CJacobs posted:And to be honest he kinda deserved it for saying slavery is good and a fantsay video game like The Witcher provides an example of good slavery like a goddamn moron His responses about how goons are facist were to people other than the slavery lover. People who were saying that slavery isn't as bad as genocide. He also used a pedophile metaphor even though he seems to support the country whose king wanted to marry an 8 year old. Another poster said marrying an 8 year old isn't that weird in medieval times. Like I said, the rabbit hole is deeper than a looney that thinks slavery is ok.

It's hard to tell if Namco was being sarcastic or ironic or something when they added fat loser Bad Art Megaman to SFxT. I suspect that game may have been the director flipping off Namco altogether

If I wanted to play a game where I can shoot bad guys online on my PS4, what game would I get? I was thinking either Battlefield 4 or Hardline, but I hear those games have awful online support and lovely netcode.

My opinion on DK64 has been somewhat soured by 101% and Beaver Bother, but I'm pretty sure that by the end of this I am still going to loving love the poo poo out of Banjo-Tooie

I think DK64 was the last time I ever 100% (or %101 WHO CARES) a game, in whatever year DK64 came out I still look back fondly on the boss battles

# ? May 28, 2015 08:48 |

The boss battles in DK64 are seriously one of the best parts of that game, they are really loving cool. I still wish they didn't repeat Beaver Bother twice in one world, or even have the second instance of Beaver Bother at all, because goddammit.

is beaver bother the one where you play an alligator herding beavers into a tiny hole, because if so I remember spending so long playing and replaying a round of that in some kind of floating horror castle level that I approached some kind of zen state and it's still kind of burned into my brain same with trying to beat Archives on 00 Agent in Goldeneye in whatever absurdly low time limit they give you to unlock the invisibility cheat

Goldeneye 007 Water Caverns on 00 Agent, Perfect Dark Area 51 Rescue and WAR! on Perfect Agent and Beaver Bother are the hardest things Rare has put out since Battletoads.

Beaver Bother is not hard, I just got done running through DK64 on the VC and I got all of 'em first try. You just have to treat it like chasing food down a sink drain with a water spray. The harder difficulties of Goldeneye can gently caress right off though

The Colonel posted:I just beat King K. Rool. Think I'm done 101% replaying DK64 for the rest of my life Congratulations, my DK brother. The problem with Beaver Bother is that you have to play it TWICE in creepy castle, as two bananas are Beaver Bother mini-games, if I recall correctly, and I probably do, because I only finished it last month

The Taint Reaper posted:What's even better is that the guy who created Vanilla Diablo 3 is running World of Warcraft now. Jay Wilson is the producer for World of Warcraft, but he was the lead designer for Diablo III. He is awful, and before Diablo III he only had at most senior programming duties on some smaller games, he never led a team before, especially not one as massive as a Blizzard title and a sequel at that. He doesn't have the experience and considering the state Diablo III was left in when he was kicked off the team, I doubt he learned anything.

From what I have seen, the developers kicked off of Titan went back to Wow, possibly since BC. Seems like internal fighting, when the last message was "grinding is good" when asked about catchup mechanics. Everything is funneled into the worst ideas possible for someone to progress, hell the best was with Cata, at least they let you catchup.

https://groupees.com/vn1 The only one of these I've played is Demonbane. Demonbane is pretty much Textbook VN Problem as it's got a cool, fun concept (Hey, what if the Cthulu Mythos was a Super Robot anime?) and then proceeds to absolutely ruin it with lovely otaku pandering and poorly written sex scenes shoehorned in. I have rarely been so drastically turned around on a thing from "gently caress YEAH" to "gently caress THIS" than I have with Demonbane.

Also they nerfed those insects to make the projectiles a lot slower, it used to be bullet hell with them. yeah I played at release they were never an issue unless you were trash im sorry

I seem to remember the problem with the game at launch was that it was long and boring and mashy like all Diablo games with the added benefit of being more grindy and having a cheesy set of characters I was supposed to care about. Not some bugs that shot lightning or something.

There is a Demonbane who exists in every conceivable universe, and they can be called on to help anytime. demonbane has no weakness because there exists a demonbane that counters whatever his weakness is, in another universe.

Level Slide posted:Do the Demonbanes fight each other for Demonbane supremacy? There's an annual convention and a lot of contests and you'd think that would be fun and interesting but it's mostly filling out a lot of forms, waiting for points and votes to be tallied, and bureaucratic nonsense. By the end, no one even cares who is best Demonbane.
