Conversations either continue or they don’t. You shouldn’t be hard on yourself. If someone says something that makes you want to say or ask something else, great. If not, that’s fine too.

I enjoy Lemmy because I tend to get a response. Despite the higher pop at Reddit, I often go ignored. It’s not unusual to have a back and forth chat with another commenter in a given thread here.

Games like Mega Man and Final Fantasy, which had limited storytelling and even more limited visuals, spoke more to me then where I had to fill in the blanks with my imagination. As they evolved with more involved plots and graphical styles that were distinct (realism, anime) I became disinterested in them. A lot of it had to do with being told “this is what Mega Man/Final Fantasy is,” with my gut disagreeing entirely.

I want “old school” visuals with modern gameplay. Shovel Knight is an example. Loved that game. If they made a Mega Man that looked like 1 or 2, but had more to do (a Metroidvania would be one idea) that would be where I’d like to see things go. Part of the puzzle was trial and error with boss powers. You’d enter a level and learn fairly quickly whether that level was appropriate for the power you’d obtained. What about using those powers to traverse/manipulate the environment? Unlock hidden areas, not just as a tool to defeat the next boss.

What would you have wanted? I didn’t play 9 or 10, but they look like more of the same.

I’m not sure I like this one either. The last one I enjoyed was 2. I played the others up to the SNES versions, which I did not enjoy.

I love NMS for what it is. A sandbox. Some people don’t like playing in one. That’s fine.

Are we still doing phrasing also thank god they’re not coming for the ultra violence and graphic scenes of bodily dismemberment

The absolute only stick drift I have ever experienced was with the Joycon. I sent it into Nintendo and got it back 2 weeks later, no more drift.

Maybe I’m lucky, but I’ve spent a lot on games over the years with dozens of controllers across various systems.

Didn’t Trump say if Kamala was elected we’d have WW3? It’s been less than a week and we’re trying to start some $&@!

I have friends like this too.

Yes. I’m so disinterested in money to the point it’s probably unwise.

I don’t know who that is 👴🦯

Which ones would say it does? Is Biden in your view as corrupt as Trump in that he can and has been bought for practically anyone that appeals to his ego and wallet?

Agree. The size of the community seems to correlate with the number of trolls, which can quickly change the tone of a platform. Trolls are more active, outspoken, and literally feed on negativity.

Same. Waterloo Cherry Limeade and Blackberry are the flavors I like most.

Also not to make it all about asses but there’s also the goatse vibe

This is going to sound weird but so is the internet their icon suggests a chain of bodies eating out the ass of the one in front of them which to me seems apt for the product

I will. Going to start playing again today. Trying to pull away from Hollow Knight which I committed to finally trying this holiday. That’s a fantastic game.

Looks like Satisfactory.

Thats bad rite

Dangit you’re making me want to play. Can you build an army with laser guns?
