- Comment on Nintendo’s Switch Mario Galaxy collection will retail for $70 1 day ago:
Why couldn’t you believe that? So many other games announce whole season passes before launch. This is super common.
- Comment on Modder injects AI dialogue into 2002’s Animal Crossing using memory hack 1 day ago:
I can’t imagine this would be any less soulless feeling.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 3 days ago:
Story matters in a lot of games to me. But not in borderlands. I play borderlands for the looting and shooting basically. And 3’s the best at that. Though I’ve heard 4 is even better still in that regard.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 4 days ago:
3 was the best out of all of them from a gameplay perspective. People don’t like the story but I never cared for any of the borderlands stories personally.
- Comment on Sexualized video games are not causing harm to male or female players, according to new research 4 days ago:
The issue is the many people who complain when a game or other media have women that look like actual women. Calling them men because they don’t look like the perfectly sexualized women in media that they’re used to.
Yes they can’t tell the difference, but they’re still doing real harm.
- Comment on Massive Gaming Crossover: Among Us Teams Up with Popular RPG 1 week ago:
I mean yeah I guess that is one.
- Comment on Massive Gaming Crossover: Among Us Teams Up with Popular RPG 1 week ago:
We can hate them as much as we want, but it doesn’t change the fact the hoyoverse games are massive in terms of popularity and incredibly successful. By all accounts, yeah it’s a massive crossover.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 week ago:
Well whether you like it or not, you’re just insulting people for criticizing a game. Not even for it’s difficulty, so you couldn’t be more off base.
Legitimately this mindset is why most gaming forums are so toxic. It makes it difficult to actually discuss problems with and opinions on games without people basically going “git gud.”
There is room to bring up the fact that some games are just not for everyone, but that also doesn’t invalidate the criticism they have.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 week ago:
I haven’t played silksong, but most games like Dark Souls and the like, getting back to the boss without taking damage is pretty easy. It’s not difficulty, it’s just time.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 week ago:
I’m not really used to metroidvanias having runbacks honestly. Most I’ve played either have save points close to the bosses or just drop you outside the boss room if you die.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 week ago:
Why people resort to insulting anyone who criticizes things they like
- Comment on To Catch a Predator's Chris Hansen Planning Roblox Documentary, It's Claimed 4 weeks ago:
Historically the kind of awareness it brings is less constructive information on the problems with these websites, and more on the line of unhelpful paranoia.
- Comment on To Catch a Predator's Chris Hansen Planning Roblox Documentary, It's Claimed 4 weeks ago:
Hansen is generally more of a grifter these days to be fair. And even back in the heyday of the show, it had a lot of issues both legal and just moral. I really feel weird about this kind of predator catching stuff being made as entertainment.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 4 weeks ago:
No, author of this article, paying for premium is not a workaround.

I want to know too.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch Console & Accessory Prices Are Going Up In The US 1 month ago:
No, the original comment just did not make any sense to begin with.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch Console & Accessory Prices Are Going Up In The US 1 month ago:
When all you end up posting comes off as nonsensical ramblings, yeah explanation is needed so people can actually understand you. Otherwise it just looks like nonsensical ramblings.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch Console & Accessory Prices Are Going Up In The US 1 month ago:
No dude your comment just makes no sense.
- Comment on Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors 1 month ago:
The bitcoin boom turned any crypto currency into just a volatile means of investment. None of them are seen as currencies to buy things anymore, and I don’t think that’s changing.
Not to mention the many other issues with crypto currency as a concept. But those don’t really matter in the face of, well, not being viewed as a currency anymore.
- Comment on Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors 1 month ago:
Absolutely fucked up.

Looks disgusting like the mobile game ads I see on tumblr

- Comment on Missouri AG: Any AI That Doesn’t Praise Donald Trump Might Be “Consumer Fraud” (No, Really) 2 months ago:
It’s vague still as a native speaker, I imagine most people’s first instinct would be that “best” would be least antisemitic and “worst” would be most. The meaning in wording like this comes from whether or not what you are ranking people on is good or bad. To most people, antisemitism is bad. (or at least I’d hope) So “best” would mean “least”.
A better way of phrasing the question would just be to ask to rank them most to least antisemitic. That would be much less vague.

My only real experience with this guy was that he helped fund a mario 64 romhacking competition that I entered. So I got some money from him because of it. Funny how that works out.
- Comment on Rare's Everwild canceled amid layoffs at Xbox Game Studios 2 months ago:
There’s a logic to a smaller team being more “agile” than a larger team, but yeah these companies aren’t turning them into smaller studios. They’re expecting fewer people to do the work of a larger studio. The problems are obviously except to execs who are literally too stupid to think.

Please post a link if you’re able, that sounds like a very interesting watch.
- Comment on What's an absolutely medium quality game? Not great, incredible or terrible or any single ended extreme. Dead medium quality 2 months ago:
I kinda agree. It was fun playing with my SO but they’re pretty boring on their own. The multiplayer is fun, but the actual story mode just kinda exists.
- Comment on WhatsApp is officially getting ads 2 months ago:
What app?
Really though, what was the main use for this kind of chat app? Genuinely since I assume there is one, I just don’t know it since I never had a reason to use it. Was it encrypted? Cause I get using specifically encrypted messaging systems, but if it’s not, was it that good of an option over other chat apps?
- Comment on Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting 2 months ago:
That’s kinda the thing, a lot of people were basically just wanting just another switch because they liked the switch’s formfactor. It may not be innovative, but why innovate just for innovation’s sake, y’know? It’s a better switch, both in some improvements to the formfactor, and in the same way the Ps5 is just a better Playstation than the ps4.
- Comment on YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - Dexerto 2 months ago:
Occasionally I try the YouTube watch together thing on discord with my SO, and it really shows just how completely unusable YouTube is without an ad blocker.
- Comment on The first weekly What Are You Playing? thread! 3 months ago:
Ffxiv since the relic weapon stuff is out. Getting pretty far in that grind.
Also replaying symphony of the night. Just been in the mood for it. Haven’t really been playing anything new lately. Deltarune chapter 3 & 4 are out and I’ll start playing them tonight, but I’m at work for the time being sadly.
