That seems like a really healthy opinion, lol. My most used weapon is sword and shield, and watching the gameplay change from base World->Iceborne->Rise has been like going from a Penny Farthing to a modern racing bike. I’m not super happy with how dominant the wire bugs are for armoring through moves and ignoring attacks but I’m optimistic that Wilds will do something different with them.

What kind of quests have disappeared from the new games?

Which Monster Hunter game did you start with? I like listening to old players gripe about how MH:W ruined the series for them. I haven’t played any others but it was an awesome game for me.

Not sure that would jive with their traditional way of development but I’d love to see a game dev mecca show up in Japan

I looked up the company to see what they made. Nothing too crazy, VR games mostly. I Expect You to Die was a hit from what I remember.

Admittedly I haven’t played it in, like, five years but when I did it only had banner ads in the pause menu

Neko Atsume: Kitty Collector. You put down furniture. Cats sleep on the furniture. You get gold to buy more funiture, and the cycle repeats.

wow, you’ve totally convinced me

/s

/s can never hurt, but there will always be someone saying “I hate sarcasm tags because they’re for stupid people” and that can hurt

As long as you brought food, the dungeon master won’t kick you out

You could try Warframe. It has its own issues but the game is incredibly healthy despite the monetization. I’ve spent $30 total on the game despite playing nearly all of the content in it.

too late, gf sit

umbrella didn’t respond, reported for botting

nice

fishing lvl?

Yeah it counts as a stroke

It means the two million people playing it now have to get emails, promotions, and keep sony products in their mind.

They obviously didn’t think it would be popular. Just like Wizards of the Coast when they tried to put out a new license that said “anything with the words ‘dungeons and dragons’ on it becomes our intellectual property”, they assumed that pissing off their entire fanbase would be net positive because people will keep buying their stuff no matter how bad it gets.

The review bombing was serious but I’d eat my hat if this stunt cut revenue by more than 10%. I don’t have anything for Helldivers but here’s an article about Dragons Dogma 2

Now I wish there was an advertising studio where, like, they specialized in shitty ads for real things. Like “I made a game on newgrounds, you WON’T LAST TEN SECONDS” but it’s just a flappy birds clone or something

Are we talking about our favorite animes? I love One Punch Man. I love that one guy made a cool story and another guy said “let me redraw that but make all the characters sexy”

Yeah smash bros brawl was my childhood game. If you like how slap city looks you could check out Fraymakers too, that one’s in alpha right now but it looks promising.

If I had the time, patience, and network to learn a new fighting game it’d probably be the newest Guilty Gear though. Breaking someone’s neck with a coffin-flail looks like so much fun.
