      I'm more of a Mountain Dew person.

  3. Black Survival is getting a sequel, and the first open alpha is starting tomorrow, I'm so excited. I loved the original game, played the shit out of it on phone and steam. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1049590/Black_Survival_Eternal_Return/

      Basically, for those who haven't played the original, it was sort of a VN-ish battle royale, with a bunch of twists. You don't move your character with the keyboard or mouse or anything, you just click the screen and it searches the area for 1 item or enemy among the items/enemies that are found in that area, and you move to other areas by clicking the move button. Weapons aren't found out and about generally, you need to craft them out of random junk you find by searching. The kicker is that over time areas become restricted and unrestricted and you cant enter them, so you often have to improvise or change your search routes as the item you were going to craft needs a material that is now in a restricted area for instance, very strategic.

      The sequel makes the game's movement same as that of a MOBA with actual movement, dodging, characters having 3-4 skills and an ult, etc, but with the same searching and restriction stuff.

      32 minutes until the alpha starts, btw, you can get it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1201710/Black_Survival_Eternal_Return__4th_Alpha/

      I'd be more excited but it's 1:30 AM here and I need to go to sleep

  4. Breaking: MIT researchers warn that by 2025 almost half of all status updated will be by me.

      Oh and now that I have your attention I have a twitter acc at @mido9_2 (you'll know it by the Miko avatar and Fire Emblem Owl BG) where I posted a bunch of crappy art, maybe you'll like it and maybe I'll post more when I figure out how to draw anything more complex than upside-down Igor Stravinsky.

  5. Breath of the Wild's weapon degradation system docks it like 20 points on a 5 out of 5 rating system, how did anyone give it beaming reviews on switch without the infinite durability mod? Especially since the reward for many things is weapons which degrade, and it makes many battles that wouldve been big challenges gear checks/makes even small encounters need to be avoided sometimes.

      I find it interesting how much this can affect people's reaction to the game. Personally I never found it hard to get weapons and for most my time basically always had a full inventory of stuff. My bigger issue was being afraid of breaking rare weapons than anything else.

      BOTW's weapon degradation was all half the internet was discussing and debating for most of 2017

  7. Dissidia NT is coming out on steam on march 12th, pretty happy about that, and it has a free version(4 characters unlocked which rotate every week) and a paid version with everything in it. I remember complaining about how this was one of the only PS4 games I was extremely upset about not being able to play, so I'm pretty happy, even if I hear that the game is super bad.

      It's ok because she has heart pupils, any lawyer will tell you that.

  9. Fun fact: Fate Grand Order has made 3.4 billion dollars in revenue, while the entire rest of the fate series has made ~70 million dollars(~2%)

      Fun fact #2: It's also made more money than each of the entire serieses of Metal gear, resident evil, the legend of zelda, splinter cell, tomb raider, mortal kombat, smash bros, the sims, and battlefield... among others.

  12. Honestly, Mabinogi had the best skill progression system of any MMO, getting levels in ANY skill boosted your base stats, so any skill at all would make improving other skills better/easier, and doing exceptional feats like crafting a high quality item or defeating enemies way above your level or bosses or healing a lot of people/HP with one skill or such would massively increase the skill exp you got, sometimes it gave 50x the exp a normal action would. You could also enchant your equipment to boost your crafting/etc skills, so you could even minmax your training and then come back and ace it.

      Like the forum update?

  13. How is Dota Auto Chess still kicking and super popular, I feel like it could be made into a full fledged game by now.

  14. How the heck is france's yellow vest protests still going? It's been FOUR MONTHS

      Well I only know what I know of it from a cursory wikipedia article read, but it seems like a pretty serious issue so a multi-month protest doesn't seem out of the question.

      The french do have a habit of rebelling against the upper class. I'm almost expecting a guillotine at this point.

  15. I didn't feel this about other souls game but I feel like sekiro is a mediocre game whose popularity is entirely propped up by "le git gud you only hate it cuz ur bad ecks dee". Like, the game has no variety in gameplay at all, you don't do anything except parry for the whole game except for the occasional firecracker on animal bosses, and rarely even combat arts or items, and it got really boring. It just took forever to do anything and one slip up in your parries meant you die, by the time I got to things like the guardian ape I didn't even bother deflecting, I would just sprint away, wait for an obvious weakness/opening, and just nightjar slash in, nightjar slash out, repeat for 20 minutes to win at 100% HP and posture and all gourds still up, just had a sense of "ok, I get it, can the game end now?"

      While I can see your argument for lack of variety, but I mean, you literally cheesed it rather than tried the intended experience.

      I got bored of the intended experience, so I used what worked to get to the more fun parts

  16. I feel highly uncomfortable about how many chinese-made games on steam are about simulating a terrible, extremely strict parents household. Just saw another one called homework is crazy, and just a few months ago "chinese parents" was the top seller on steam for a long period, it's disturbing.

  17. I feel like Capcom almost proves that innovation in AAA games almost never works, like, they basically buried their IPs with bad innovations and gimmicks like RE5 and RE6, monster hunter on 3DS, DMC reboot, MMX7 and X8, Dead Rising 3, and so on and brought it back with DMC5, RE7 and 2, MM11, MHW, Dead Rising 4, and etc.

    MHW, both REs in particular are now literally capcom's best selling games of ALL TIME, DMC5 is one of the most anticipated games ever, MM11 is considered to be bringing back megaman, etc.

  18. I feel like this image sums up ~75% of ycm and NCM: http://i64.tinypic.com/2v0zf3d.png

  19. I googled pokemon and one of the first results that showed up was that the switch emulator yuzu now runs LGPE almost perfectly, it's just missing shaders. I'm pretty sure this is literally the first time a pokemon gen game was(likely) emulatable right on release.

      I haven't played any 3DS pokemon games, btw, I finished BW2, but I only played USUM for like 5 minutes and got annoyed by cutscenes and lost interest/moved on. I still have it, though, and I hear it has like twice the featuers and minmaxing of BW2

  20. I only just found out but apparantely Dead by Daylight has a lot of playable guest killers from other games, like mike myers from halloween, freddy from nightmare on elm street, amanda young from saw, and there's speculation for a stranger things killer soon.

    1. Ash

      Ash

      Yeah, Ash is also a playable survivor, pretty neat. (And not me but Ash Williams from Evil Dead in case anyone was confused with my name being Ash n' all)

    2. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      There's also a survivor from Left 4 Dead

      I found out that ghost face is from a movie series called scream. Every time I saw it, I just thought it was a generic mask.
