@tomie it always amazes me to see shit like this lol. Other than the beard my looks have barely changed since I was like 14 xD

@GrungeQueef I completely agree, it's my favorite 2d Mario by far and my second favorite in the whole series with only 64 beating it out. Amazing game.

Hot Take: Super Mario 3 is far superior to Super Mario World for the SNES in spite of technical limitations

played a bit of the demo for AGX GP. the wall flipping is cool, and i like how fast the game is. it runs really well too, although it has no graphics options beyond the resolution.

i don't think i'm going to be playing much more of it or actually buying it though. main reason being that the dash makes this game play COMPLETELY different from all the other ones in the genre. for a lot of people that could be a good thing, because it is definitely fresh. i just don't like it. instead of driving along the tracks smoothly with a strafe (f-zero) or air brakes (wipeout) you practically teleport a set amount to the right or left. because of that it kind of feels more like you're zipping across the track than racing across it, and the game seems to REALLY want you to utilize this feature all the time. you're always looking out for how you can cut corners instead of how you can drive them, if that makes sense.

here are two examples of your regular f-zero styled game (blue) versus AGX GP (red). maybe i'm playing the game wrong or something but this FEELS like how you're supposed to play it, especially because the game slows down when you are holding the dash button as if it is really trying to get you to figure out the best routes to take by using it. it doesn't slow you down to dash at all, in fact it speeds you up in a lot of cases. driving a neat line through a curve like on the left is a lot slower than doing the weird dash zig zagging and you can pretty much just spam it.

it seems like i'm not alone in not liking this very much either, taking a glance at the discussions on steam. since so much of the game is built around it, i think it would be kind of hard to just gut it entirely, but if there was a speed penalty for doing it that got exponentially greater the longer you held the button, i think that would go a long way in making the mechanic useful but not so broken that you need to play the game in this fucked up fashion.

@MeBigbrain @Shadowman311 i'd correct her feminist ass over and over until she had babies :uohhh_bratty:

Is it not strange that Trump met with Agarthans and then a few days later he's beefing with Bibi and signing peace deals with Iran?

i have a css style for youtube that shrinks the recommended sidebar videos down and every time they slightly alter something i have to go hunting for all these different values to change to make it look good again lol. it's kind of fun though.

Because of AI, I got a poster for free.

I didn't get the poster but it said it was delivered, so I requested a refund for it. I got the refund, and then someone actually brought the package over to me because they got it by mistake.

So, I go to Amazon's support and it's just a fucking AI that doesn't understand I want to reverse the refund. It keeps on telling me that I'll be receiving the refund soon because it thinks that I WANT a refund.

I don't feel bad at all for this lol, you get what you fucking deserve. I mean I'm sure $20 means nothing to them but still.
