mmmmmmyes. (i hate that shit god why)

i mean chara is probably right in that it works best after having played hk (like me! 112%, god help), but people exaggerate how strong the difficulty curve is at the start. they punish wailing for a reason.

after adding the biggest osts on the app, alright sure

the cogwork core music goes SO hard true

im forever stuck associating golden fellas with silksong now help

Comm 🦈

funny to assume this was why, nearly every issue here was stuff people had been complaining about from the start.. including things not as prominent like iframes

yeah i thought their other pilots have been 20 minutes long? i know spindlehorse is only animating it but still, those extra 10 minutes would do wonders

I don't know if I have the time right now but I plan on scrounging these streams to try and find my own submission, less for the text but more for my own idiot to show up

it really is strange to see ocs from people i know on an official stream haha

@mockingmoth.bsky.social !!!

so I would argue a lot of more "objective" criticism will be hard to dig out (at least for a while) when this game was always gonna be really hard, even if they rebalanced it all tomorrow
I really do think it's a DS2 situation - it can be a masterpiece for its genre, but relies on your taste in pain

I still haven't played enough to be fully certain (I do hear Act 2 can be a make it or break it for most), but I (for the most part) don't feel the same stress or frustrations, I love this game. Though I also do love really hard games and this feels like Dark Souls but something I like (2d plats.)

jay, get out, you're grounded

If you want people staying on this platform, you gotta understand pandering to future laws and payment BS is something we've all caught onto. Stop lying to us and give us the tools to keep ourselves safe.

Bluesky, I'm sure you're well aware that we know how easily guidelines like these can be abused. There's no hiding it anymore, this is just opening up the wound to make every NSFW/Furry artist on this platform jump ship, as will artists who are maybe just suggestive.

what show?

So do SIE own controller overlay and Bamco own rap battle now? Of course not—no more than Nintendo could own monster summoning.

assuming the company overall is slacking would imply at least a very good chunk of their output during the Switch era, maybe close to majority, which I just know isn't right.

i didn't really debate his initial list for what you said, in fact i was adding on the mario sports games

"least offensive" feels strange to say, as if the concept of sandbox levels or open worlds is bad in of itself, but i must reiterate that pikmin takes advantage of the format in a way that's actually engaging underneath the actual main genre, rts. it feels like a stretch for the argument

you could reasonably stick with the mid-air spin boost or the grappling hook and they help with nearly every level.. though their usefulness is still downplayed outside of badge challenges

i just look at wonder and i don't see "barely passing", i see the clearly talented designers doing their best and fighting against the mario standard of "only hard at the very end"

as someone who did play wonder 100%, i will say i wish they did more stuff with the wonders. i wouldn't say they didn't do interesting stuff with many of them but having more stages 4+ stars in difficulty would've been nice (of which HOPEFULLY the dlc addresses)

granted, i precisely took it as "bad", specifically because they didn't just say they were slacking, no, they clarified it to also mean "half complete" games of which i can think of many of other genres that aren't that at all

the QUALITY can be debated but it's not like they only put out wip stuff

just because it has any sandbox stylings when the game itself has a much heavier focus on the rts aspect, especially with how many more linear areas exist in pikmin 4, feels like dismissal of effort for no reason

with this and pikmin, i think the issue is you hyperfocus on the fact it has any partial open world/sandbox stylings when both games play very differently and treat that sort of scope in the same way. i assume you mean you're sick of "huge for the sake of it" open worlds but pikmin being put off

i just don't know exactly what you're looking for when you want "new", like wonder creatively was one of the greatest efforts nintendo gave with mario but the response was basically "it's super easy so who cares" when that wasn't the argument

like, we don't live in 00s anymore, what is "new"?

again, not seeing "slacking" making sense when a bulk of their lineup doesn't come close to that

and i bet a lot of that last bit is because of the transition to a new console, open worlds are just an easy way to show off power (and before mp4 is mentioned, we have no way of knowing yet how substantial the biking is, chances are the game is not crazy open world), and it'll even out over time

mario wonder, pikmin 4, multiple mario parties, metroid dread, m&l brothership, warioware, paper mario,

like sure the games you listed (though i wouldn't say mkw feels "half complete") and.. basically every mario sports game did happen, but you ignore the big variety of other stuff over the years

doubt nintendo will feel at all encouraged, they've done silly throwbacks like this before, and also.. since when was nintendo slacking? i can see how they're greedy, overprotective... but lazy? how?
