"Game feel" is indeed a legit term used in design circles by people who understand game design and mechanics that encompasses the range of factors that aggregate to shape the player's experience. The micro-stutter caused by constant small load times would indeed be a factor in a game's feel. Hope this helps

That's just a poorly put together game. Games can only be examined by their mouth feel, vintage, and waifu options. Hope this helps.

Which means Monster Hunter is objectively bad.

Monster Hunter has The Handler and The Guildmarm before her.

Would you automatically assume a female robot that has stilettos for feet is a sexbot? Like not wearing stilettos but her feet were constructed to literally be stilettos?

Because the second Tingle DS game has such a robot. She is one of your friends. Maybe she'll be in the next Hyrule Warriors one day.

Obviously Burikki has stiletto feet to enhance her kicking power.

Is there any way to earn these specific gestures in MHW because $3.99 for one of the new Ryu ones is kinda...

I mean the game is getting a ton of free content which is good, including the Ryu outfit itself.

But man four dollars, I guess in a game like this if you're that into it and you know you're going to be spending hundreds more hours playing the game then of course gestures are something you're going to use so there's that.

My favorite thing to do is to redownload Bethesda games, throw on two dozen mods, boot it up to the title screen and go "Oh wait, it's this loving game?" and alt+f4 immediately

Another kickstarter game dead through feature creep? What a surprise.

I wonder what percentage of the failed kickstarters died because of feature creep, because I feel like it’s the vast majority of them. Devs need to learn that changing engines mid development is a god drat kiss of death, along with overdone stretch goals. I don’t care if they liked Unreal better, it’s such a bad idea to make drastic changes like that.

La Mulana 2 stuck to their premade game plan, didn’t switch away from Unity, and had simple stretch goals/rewards and they’re at final development now.

I'm pretty sure Handler exists to serve as your surrogate for the story stuff. She's not a sidekick in terms of gameplay but she shows up in cutscenes as someone for the other characters to talk too.

I asked about this yesterday, but: anyone play Battle Chasers Nightwar? It seems like it might be pretty fun but I'm skeptical that the whole "turn-based RPG with Diablo loot" thing might not be as fun as it seems.
