@veru my body builder friend tried playing Wii fit with me once and it said he was morbidly obese lol it was really funny

@PurpCat there are a lot of people who will blindly just love whatever nintendo puts out, but i think there are a ton of people who are the opposite too lol. nintendo has developed so many games with so many different styles you can't really put them under that wide of an umbrella.

i kind of feel this same way about shadow of the colossus too lol. sure it's got these massive boss fights but it runs at like 15 fps and it has basically nothing else going for it.

i've got a little bit of that feeling towards the souls games too... they have a lot of great things going for them from world design to the story to the music but the COMBAT, the CORE GAMEPLAY, sucks ass and i think people really only like it because they have stockholm syndrome from the dopamine administration when you finally bust your head through the brick wall bosses.

this is all coming from the guy whose favorite devil may cry is DmC though so idk sue me.

@hazlin long story short. i played hl2 right after hl1 basically. it felt way more like a generic action game, whereas half life 1 had this atmospheric sci-fi horror thing going on that i really enjoyed. it also goes way harder on the realistic graphics and i think that these days, it's actually to its detriment. i don't think HL2 has aged nearly as well.

this sounds really weird, but i consider FEAR to be a perfect spiritual successor to half life. HL2 feels like an entirely different game. FEAR's still got the atmosphere i liked so much in HL1 and it even ends with a science facility exploding! it builds on the enemy AI and the gunplay in meaningful ways. it's a lot more action packed but it doesn't feel hammy like HL2 does.

when half life 2 came out, i'm sure it was revolutionary. it feels more like a 2008 game than a 2004 game, for better or for worse. for someone who didn't play it back then and didn't play it until like 2021 or something, it really did absolutely nothing for me. i hated the vehicle sections, and there was way more dead air that was either going from point A to point B with maybe a dumb puzzle in between or lots of dialogue.

i respect half life 2, especially for its impact and the source engine itself, but i just did not like the game.

@Mr_NutterButter well gooning is done by yourself so a little different here lmao.

but seriously one night stands ain't worth it.

@jeff @djsumdog mkw is not an $80 game imo, it's a good price for the bundle though. it is extremely fun but the open world stuff and the intermission tracks get old super fast. it feels a little undercooked. i've already gone back to play mk8dx again instead.

both breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom run at 60fps 1440p internally, and that's only if you buy the switch 2 upgrades. otherwise they'll max out at 30fps 900p. basically the original games but extremely stable instead of dropping frames or resolution.

dk bananza has been the star of the show for me, it's a super awesome game. funny enough, i was super excited for mario kart and wasn't going to get bananza at all, but the banaza direct got me hyped for it and i'm glad i bought it. blows mario kart out of the water.

i'm fairly certain that nintendo made mario kart the launch/bundle game that was $80 instead of dk bananza solely because mk8dx was their highest selling standalone game ever.

@Hyperhidrosis the fucking beetle lmao

@Hyperhidrosis i never get these lol. i just get the "update and shut down" option in the start menu.

alex calling clone troopers storm troopers and saying the nfs underground soundtrack sucks in the same video, whew

i must be one of like 10 mother fuckers in the world who didn't like half life 2

@LukeAlmighty the problem is that if you voice that to them they get pissed off because being trans isn't a disorder to them, it's just an identity.

i learned this frame 1 back in like 2013. the only acceptable way to be outwardly sympathetic is to just agree with them on everything.

@pikika i know he just jokes about having a third term but even if he could this is not how you get it lol trump is probably cooked beyond repair at this point and it's not even been a year

@pikika mfw Donald Trump won't get a third term

@icedquinn yes, because x is bad and they say y is bad, that means y is good. Obviously.

@icedquinn nice, let's see their discord messages

@pleb487 now instead of their accents sounding cute in English they'll sound like niche math YouTubers
