Stephen 776 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I spent the entire day playing splatoon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I need a break so I think I'll finally dig into my anime backlog and watch Jojo's Bizarre Adventures because I need something campy af and it seems to fit the bill. April 1 Link to comment

Anything Is possible i played the gamemode where you switch heroes after you die which seems like wonderful fun except i was terrible so it was wonderful fun for the 1 minute i played as a character i liked before being ass blasted back to spawn and rolling out as hanzo and then lather rinse repeat lmfao i don't usually fuck around w custom shit like that in games, i like to stick to the official shit the game has to offer for the most part, but i like it when games offer player-made changes and such Link to comment

But this has nothing to deal with any of that. What I mean to say is that occasionally you see that stuff (I've seen it more than any other online game) but it's cool you have thick skin to deal with that shit. Not trying to be disrespectful, I've just have grown pessimistic with the atmosphere of those that play the game lately. Not saying the game is bad just some of it's community. I didn't take no hard feelings but whatever floats your boat. Just please don't misconstrue I am condescending; I am not trying to be. And that one mode in Arcade when switching random characters after death is the best of the game. The best to train with heroes; problem is that that game mode can be unbalanced but interesting Edited June 17, 2019 by Kirbymeister2 Link to comment
Youngster Joey Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I've reached the endgame of Vesperia and now I need to grind Grade and skills before finishing things up. I think once I finish the game and take a break, I'll start Dragon Warrior III as my next console RPG. I have a sentimental attachment to playing Dragon Warrior/Quest during the Summer. I've been replaying Pokemon Platinum, and it's a blast. It's fun to play a Pokemon game that treats me like I have a brain. And with this past week's news, I can play Platinum knowing that GameFreak isn't competent to deliver a satisfying remake of Sinnoh. "Casual Trash" Kirbys, Tyranogre and Doc Brown 3 Link to comment

And I get less frustrated by losing since sometimes there really is just no accounting for the randomness. I play on PS4 too, and with a controller, though I'm definitely not very good with the super aim-intensive heroes. I got the two trophies for Widowmaker and have never again selected her in a normal match. And it's nice that you're gravitating toward Lucio, a healer! Overwatch could always use more healer players. Yeah I don't mess with custom game modes either, though it's nice to see all of the creativity that the Workshop has inspired. I do like watching videos of their crazy creations on Youtube every now and then. Link to comment
DranSeasona Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Budgeting for some of these good looking games is gonna be a bit tough, but it is a great time to be a Switch owner! I don’t like online only games, personally, but the game industry might be moving in that direction via all the streaming that’s coming. Although I’d be okay with a cloud save and storage system where you can download some games for offline and travelling use. Link to comment

By mixing two of those colors together, you could make three additional ones: orange, green, and purple. Six colors. A nice, round number. But then that Indigo asshole came along and fucked everything up. It thinks it's good enough to be a part of our rainbow, but it's not. It's just a darker blue. Fuck Indigo. Schools around here (and I think some educational shows) don't include Indigo in the rainbow anymore. they just go from Blue to Violet. RIP Roy G Biv Link to comment

Either they'll be screwed over or the ISP's have to get rid of bandwidth caps. But we all know that if they did that, they'd make it uber expensive to get, as per usual. I'm ok with cloud saves and regular saves (as a back up). Link to comment

DranSeasona Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 @Doc Brown Yeah I hear you. I am assuming the Switch’s successor (direct or spiritual) will at least be able to play offline sometimes. I think it would make the most sense, anyway, and I’m guessing my fears are unfounded, but can’t help feeling a bit uneasy. Doc Brown 1 Link to comment

Agreed, and I don't think they're unfounded for what it's worth. Gaming companies seem to think that people are made of money. I feel the same too for what it's worth. Especially given the size of some updates/patches. DranSeasona 1 Link to comment
