Johnbobb posted... agreed it was a strong premiere, if not as gripping as Game of Thrones premiere because it's a lot more limited in its scopeCounterpoint: I genuinely wish I had never watched GoT season 7/8. --- It's Reyn Time. |

| KamikazePotato 08/22/22 1:56:32 PM #29 | Dancedreamer posted... I think it's fine, mostly. Sometimes you just don't catch bugs early enough in development. Or you don't catch them at all. Some bugs only happen sometimes, and it takes time to figure out what causes the bug to occur. Day 1 patches should be super common.I'll actually agree with this as long as the key word is 'mostly'. Game launches don't have to be absolutely perfect, but it's looking like Saints Row is going to be way too far over the line of what is acceptable. --- It's Reyn Time. |

He doesn't need to go full DLC privilege, but it's hard to use him when he feels like he needs to work really hard for mediocre gains, or just resort to lame egg camping. --- It's Reyn Time. |

As he is now, Ganondorf is like, THE most popular character among casuals. Would be a lot of buyer's remorse if it happened I think. --- It's Reyn Time. |

Spending an hour on a boss is completely normal. I'd say you've actually been doing better than most at the bosses so far. --- It's Reyn Time. |

It requires dropping off the side of the castle to the bonfire platform below, but it's not as if I had time for sightseeing while fleeing the explosive boulders!Honestly checking for this sort of thing is second nature after playing so many Souls games.

| KamikazePotato 08/15/22 5:26:10 PM #41 | _stingers_ posted... Yeah I always thought he was being overrated at first because his movement is so slow but they really just overtuned his kit way too much. Minecart is the best move in the game, diamond weapons are way too strong, and you can't even juggle him, which should be his largest vulnerability, because of anvil being so safe and powerful. He was designed with clear weaknesses but then given answers to cover up those weaknesses and then his strengths are too overtuned leading to an oppressive character. Definitely a failure in design. Steve's normals are absolutely ridiculous for a campy character. He boxes better than characters whose entire gameplan revolves around close combat Hot take: the Smash Ultimate scene, a year from now, will be a shell of what it is today if Steve doesn't get banned, which he won't, despite us having evidence of what a Bayonetta situation does to a game. --- It's Reyn Time. |

| KamikazePotato 08/14/22 6:39:14 PM #40 | Capra Demon dogs are finite. It's also the second-most reviled boss in DS1, so if you can get past it you'll be good on that front for a while. --- It's Reyn Time. |

You know brainless trash like Boebert and Greene who keep posting their garbage the cult believes and then you get guys trying to solo the FBI because of itWas about to say that Boebert and Greene technically don't break any laws, but some of the stuff they say these days is basically sedition so hmm Thing is, the DoJ only has so many manpower and there are more clear-cut cases to pursue.

I wont hope too hard for it due to lack of faith in rich white people/politicians actually being fairly punished by the law, but man would it be incredible to see Trump go down. If something like this cant nail your ass what the fuck possibly couldA decent number of rich white politicians have been punished recently actually.
