@Okgaki3 holy shit

@Chronomemes he's a box maaaan

I'm actually... Kind of sad it's over now. Unless I manage to get a PS5 for cheap somewhere somehow down the line for some reason I'll never be able to play it again.

I get that way with some other games when I 100% them. It's bittersweet, knowing a game was really good but also knowing that you've seen everything there is in it, and trying to replay it just isn't the game as the first time you experienced it.

That just goes to show that I think it is a really good game, though. If I owned a PS5 I would probably start playing the new game + mode and try to 100% complete it right away, but I know I wouldn't have enough time so I'm just gonna leave it at that. If I ever get to play again I'd be more than happy to replay it a bunch of times.

Just finished rift apart! It was a pretty fun game! I mean, it takes a lot for a game to hook me enough to where I'll play in excess of a couple hours a session (3 sessions, two of which were 6-7 hours and the last one being 4-5). I definitely enjoyed it :) minor issues aside, the gameplay itself was super solid and the story was good too! It still had a lot of charm and moments where I genuinely laughed, although there were some annoying over the top kind of things.

It is definitely a classic video game, if you have a ps5 for some reason I would highly suggest giving it a playthrough! There's no bullshit in it, just a good ol' game and it's really fun. I'd say I hope it comes to pc one day, but none of the other R&C games have so I wouldn't hold out for it. That's why I was happy to be able to play it on my friend's ps5.

It didn't feel as good as the first one did, and I think that might come down to the animation quality. It definitely has plenty of its own mechanics and the whole premise of the story is great too. The last game seems like it was a little bit bigger in scope while still being really tight, whereas this one is smaller in scope but still equally as tight. It definitely could not have been pulled off on the ps4 that's for sure, the switching between various worlds and dimensions happens super seamlessly and they're like COMPLETELY different scenes, really cool tech on display. It runs at 60fps too so that's nice :)

I actually didn't really use any of the wackier guns, just stuck with the classics because I wanted to go a little bit monkey mode.

The Clank and Glitch gameplay was done well enough, but unlike the first game I never felt particularly challenged by any of the puzzles. They were all pretty easy, the only time I got a little stuck was at the very end and it took me only a few minutes to figure out, and would have been even without NPCs giving me super blatant hints on what to do.

I gotta say I do actually like all of the new characters. They all seemed pretty worthy of being in the game. Glitch was pretty charming, and the counterparts to Ratchet and Clank, Rivet and Kit, were also pretty cool and unique enough to justify being their own characters instead of just a pallette swap. The only one I didn't like was Zurkon Jr, he was annoying as shit.

I think a 9/10 is a little too high, but maybe like an 8.9/10 is perfect. I had a really good time with it.

@matana Doug bowser: NoA ceo, real
Gary bowser: he fucked up, real

Bowser: king koopa, fake
Bowsette: hypothetical character that can't even exist, even more fake (but hot)
Baby bowser: bowser's son?, fake
Bowser jr: bowser's son that thinks peach is his mom, fake
Dry bowser: bowser after he's been drowned in lava, fake

There's bow-wow too but his name is the only thing that's relatively close

@Mr_NutterButter but you don't have your stuff back xD like if you got your car stolen and totaled by some dude you would want him to pay for a new car right? XD

@matana there are too many bowsers related to Nintendo

@matana oh lop whoops I meant Gary bowser

@Mr_NutterButter he was gonna have i think 40 months of prison time too but was just released early.

prison doesn't exactly get a company's money back to them so that's why the fine exists. it can be good for other crimes but if someone stole something from me i wouldn't want them to just go to jail, i want my shit back or to be compensated for it lol.

the debate ought to be around how much he's being fined, not necessarily if he should have been fined or not. did nintendo really lose 10mil because of this dude? who knows but probably not. they may have lost 10mil in like, perceived value or some shit like that. but it's clear they at least missed out on some money since there were people who were literally paying team xecuter to pirate games. if someone pirates a game it's usually because they can't afford it or they wouldn't have bought it in the first place, but if you pay to pirate games then you could have at least afforded one of those games so it gets a bit more sketch.

>find cool video on youtube
>hear feminine voiceover
>oh shit it's probably a tranny
>look at their twitter
>"trans masc, he/him"

not what i expected but still funny i could immediately tell

@Mr_NutterButter he pulled stupid shit on people so i don't really give a fuck. he didn't do it with just the switch either, he's been around since i wanna say the xbox days.

it's like, imagine some guy made a closed-source program that you could employ on windows and it would automatically crack any software you downloaded, but you had to pay like $50 for it. then if you tried to change anything with the program it would literally just fry your motherboard and all your components. it's even worse than that because the pirated software you had to pay to get access to also.

like it isn't just some guy that made a way to hack your switch and do things like run homebrew apps on it and backup save files and stuff, or run android or linux, these guys were 100% in it for the piracy scene and they were charging people for it. and they were stealing code from other devs and adding malicious shit to it. just not a good situation in general.

the other guys he was in cahoots with got off and he took the fall for them. the risk you take for making dirty money at someone else's expense i guess.

i also have no idea how much team xecuter actually made in profit but it seems like it was fairly lucrative if they stuck around so long. perhaps he'll be able to pay a decent chunk of that fine via liquidation or something.

i think fines in general are pretty retarded unless there was actual money lost, but nintendo can kind of argue that there was because they were likely doing repairs on bricked consoles or at least spending time telling people they couldn't repair their bricked console, and in the case of normal piracy it's really hard to prove that you're actually losing money but in this case, it's probably more likely because normies were still paying money to pirate games instead of buying them or just grabbing them for free. 10 mil is pretty damn steep but again, idgaf because the dude and the team in general is pretty scummy so he's kinda' just getting what was coming to him.
