I don’t mind about some minor cloth added, but it does kinda meh because perspectives. ( say for the bunny suit, if I can only pick one change to revert back I’d pick to remove extra cloth that covers more butt, not the cleavage part. Also once they release the PC version people are gonna mod it anyway unless they remain sony exclusive for extended period of time. )

Yes, I’ve played HD2 but are kinda drifting away from it as I don’t see something more exciting or new. ST:E does require more team work and I like the new class variety as well. But it’s still very rough in current state, and not as “fun” for people that prefer casual hoard shooter. (cause you have to do all those “other” things on top of shooting the bugs. ) I do thing it’s heading into a good direction though, hope the devs keep pushing some boundaries.

Stellar Blade: It’s actually quite nice action play wise after I played the demo. And you get some eye candy + Nier style story plot I assume.

Starship Troopers: Extermination: The new 0.7 update gives something interesting to play with multiple classes, and ways to bring weapon to different class. I am having fun with it even though the overall jank/bug/balance and issues. Grinding class unlock only take about maybe 7-10 matches depending on your class of choice and game mode. And support class are actually quite important, missions success or fail pretty much relies on the classes to do their job. I wish they have more maps and game mode + more bug types to come before I got bore with it again.

if you mean the dive then just standing medium kick with proper spacing, if you are on emu you can snap shot the match or add more token and just practice anti air if it jump and dive from mid distance.

If you only play old games for story mode, the CPU read inputs so you are gonna have a bad time anyway if you don’t exploit their tendencies. Don’t spam fire ball cause I think by the 2nd or 3rd match you start to getting jumped on. In fact, if you know how to do anti air(couch heavy punch from Ken) with proper timing you can beat the run pretty easily except char with command grab.

Like for CPU don’t even try complex input, read on internet for most basic punish(like empty jump in and then throw against zoner) cause throw is really high damage & strong in SF2. If you push them to wall then you do the light punch fireball with some distance to bait them to jump over then do your punish.

well, I am not good but consider I can usually finish all the combo trainings 100% so my execution is quite okay. (I quit fighting game cause the button tapping is quite noisy, so no more fighting game after my son was born. )

• street fighter have a couple arch type, ryu/ken is shoto and they have actually different play style even though their basics looks similar.
• for any fighting game the distance that your opponent’s attack can reach is very important. a good player can simply whiff punish you and throw jabbing you because you don’t understand the +/- etc after a blocked/whiffed attack.
• hit confirm is also important, which means a simple combo that you can start when you have advantage, but not too “negative” when it’s blocked. (training mode can show these info) Where the first 2~3 hit of your combo is safe and once you get better and landing those 2~3 hit combo, pick something that allows you to cancel into special moves, knock down or throw(which is also a down). All the more fancy complex combo is not really useful if you can’t even land a 2~3 hit combo on opponent.
• punishing specific match up’s bad move, ie. a fireball at wrong distance allows opponent to jump in and lands full combo out of it. you have to do training mode a lot and study your match up.
• and finally, study the neutral game, where both side starts from distance that all normal attacks are out of range, what can you do from that point of space and what opponent’s char can do from their space. If you keep getting beat by opponent’s certain move, rewatch the replay, check their input, record that input to a training dummy, and find what you can do as counter.

It’s a huge time sink and there are also cheaters(on pc specifically), so good luck.

Merge needs some stomp, yeah, mine stomp yours.

edit: note, this is a good thing, cause then we both have unlimited supply of tickets.

thanks lemmy and now I know what it is and doesn’t have to watch. ;)

Yeah, but at the same time, people are “NOT” going to pay for it won’t pay for it anyway. You might as well establish your player/fan base. Like even if you give me say, Suicide Squad for free I still won’t add it to my library.

I wish that in the future developer can just host their own game with very minimum cost/overhead unless they really need some platform’s backend feature. (multiplayer game mostly.)

For single player game I really don’t see why it is so difficulty to host (even torrent it) would be a hard thing to do. During the shareware/pre-steam days where you may have downloaded the full game with a soft lock, I’ve played a whole game and then try find way to send my money as well. (was not living in NA at that time and there was no guarantee that a game will be imported with official vendor.)

Hate to say this but what a big blob of BS because the ownership class find out pretty early that if no one else is making money to buy the shits they make, they can’t make more money. (We will skip the pre 1900 slavery scenario, as they can just force you to work and just keep you alive is enough as slaves are “production equipment” like cows/horses. )

People generate value if they do or make something other people want, currency invented to cover that value gap so supply, demand, skill and rarity, efficiency and many different quality of your work/product/service decides how many $ you get when people want your service. At least, that’s how it all should be in equal footing. But since money == power when the scale goes up, since ancient time successful merchants holds a lot influence in politics and cause unbalance in wealth distribution. They can only push it so far until they get hunting down and stuff taken, but usually by other influential political/business figures that does the raids.

Having said the above, a lot of small and medium scale business owners values their employees a lot, especially those that truly have the skill set that compliments their business. And, do I need to remind you to do a bit of study of history, the invention of machines, tele-communication and then the boom of computers(especially general purpose ones), yet global population keeps going up and up instead of all starved to death cause the jobs these past things replaced?

And, just to do a quick review of how much people hates the automated phone support menu system transition from traditional to modern voice recognition ones. Or how many internet goer hates the auto generated useless pages plague our search result and provide nothing useful, waste our time click and read just to serve some ads? Yeah, like many worried before, what if computer replaced our jobs? Well, they need people to make the computer work. AI isn’t going to be fully automated and self improve, we are pretty far from that. many successful model needs guided training, and usually prevents additional feedback into the system to avoid degrading the performance.

that’s why I argue you can’t put “best” and “all time” together. If the title says “best game of their time but got snubbed by medias” then I might have a couple of my own to provide as example.

IMO, it’s hard to claim best game of all time unless it ages well, and not just some unique gimmick the game provided at the time.

Ie, I don’t like Tetris but for sure it is one of the best game of all time.

However, if what you mean is good games that somewhat get outshined by others or lacks media attentions, then I agree. There are plenty of other games, and I think people would have bias toward their favorite genre/type.

Thank you so much. :D

edit: I ended up using this one that has more users. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/remove-fbclid-and-utm

• I don’t install Facebook app on phone and find ways to remove/disable if come pre-installed.
• Pretty much all social network platform are browsed with a container tab.
• I look at the link before I click, if it’s super long or some google redirecting shit I just DDG and search the keywords myself. (is there a firefox extension that does this automatically?? removing the redirect/tracking link and convert back into normal link)

I think so but I also feel that the arena/duel can feature a bit more variety of high level enemies that uses different weapon types. I really miss when some of the duel that the enemy use things that are not blade and wish they could be extended more even onto say archer based boss, or ninja style boss, etc. (I guess the legends/raid type of boss may have more variety but I don’t really like that rng loot drop grinding part so I skipped the whole thing. )

you can already experience that on bing search. Sometimes I have to use edge to visit sites that fail if you tried to use VPN. (some bank site did) And then I forgot I am using edge and put search words on the address bar thus showing the “ai assisted result” on the top. You then have to scroll down to actually find what’s useful. (Or alt-tab back to firefox and search with ddg again. )

modern compromise is putting a “FN” key on the right side while keeping the windows key on the left side cause the TKL or mini layout lacks quick access to many function keys.

Believe it or not I had that and the logitech ones. The index/middle finger track ball is a bit less precise due to how our fingers are built and it’s a pita to clean them for both the ball and the rolling axis and the housing(since it’s a concave shape). Eventually I caved to the modern censor mouse since no cleaning is required. (well, except those pads adhesive attracting dust etc. )

I think the discovery aspec would come from these:

• links from your frequently visited sites, community
• recommendations when you ask in more niche group, the frequent there usually can point you to a better youtuber/reviewer.
• or some lazy effort when you just go to the default and search with keywords(while in a container tab) and navigate through the useless stuff.

I complaint because now my youtube feed are filled with other pseudo-science and auto-generated stuff, youtube’s algorithm have failed me basically. Half are from my subs and another half are from people or program that are trying to exploit you with those “try this to improve …” shit and just paste some sounding scientist names.

the day this combo no longer works is the day I don’t visit youtube. Honestly if there are some alternative front end/extension that’s better please let me know. I visit youtube for times like game award announcement(so trailers and official release), search for review benchmark while I want to buy PC stuff, and the rest mostly just game educational stuff from Digital Foundry and channel like PBS Space Time. I am doing the upkeeping(so tagging channel as not interested or straight blocking them), but recent generated clips are flooding Youtube like crazy. I want to have a page/frontend that only my subscribed channels and whitelist keywords to show up.
