Topic | Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1366 |
ctesjbuvf 04/27/21 2:58:12 AM #147 | I would not let Ultimate's lack of high numbers in that contest mean too much, it easily got the job done when it needed to. Mostly, the big numbers came from games that in the GotY discussion anywhere. The Xenoblade match probably should not be taken at value given it was major upset (like 3% that Xenoblade reached that point). Wouldn't be much different from taking Mario/Charizard at face value when the latter had a dream run. Besides, Melee vs. Ultimate is a match that could easily defy how the numbers looked against other games. . --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. |

No one player is worth that much if their value is only on the pitch. For all of the Messi merchandise they sold, however, it probably was worth it because it captured a generation of fans that will stay with them even when he has left. Messi brings the club so much money to the club off the pitch, that his contract is somehow magically worth it already. It's crazy how losing him would put be a loss to Barca economically. --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. |

While I believe Lopen has great points, TFA wasn't good to begin with either and has problems of its own. I think Avatar has aged worse because I ultimately don't believe that even if TFA had good and continuous sequels, it'd excuse it.

ctesjbuvf 04/11/21 9:59:55 AM #27 | Published anti masks studies are typically like "There is a 95% chance that the chance of getting affected while wearing a mask is halved or increased by 25% or somewhere in between" which is basically useless information and probably the reason they tend to get rejected by the most journals. They also tend to completely ignore the purpose of preventing yourself from affecting others in case you're affected yourself and only look at how great they are at protecting you. With a conclusion that says we can't conclude anything they're often referred to as proof that masks make no difference while they actually just prove nothing >_> --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. |

Well, most recent thing I played and agree with at least. I also played The Last Of Us 2 and enjoyed playing through it for most part, but the most mind blowing thing about it is probably that anyone finds what was mentioned in this topic mind blowing as I don't find that impressive even a little bit (with all due respect, glad some people did because it was clearly the intention!)

You go straight from one gym to the next with very minimal bulls***. If the battles posed a single bit of challenge to compensate for this they'd be the best Pokemon games. Alas.

ctesjbuvf 03/28/21 6:49:03 AM #33 | ChainLTTP posted... How does anyone deal with this camera? The overly sensitive controls? The fact that you can't f***ing go out of order with the shines? The fact that you get booted out after each one?? The absolutely atrocious special platforming stages that require 20+ lives???? I find the camera and controls a step up from 64, especially the former of the two. The fact that you get booted out is a weird criticism if you've played any other 3D Mario at all. The out of order thing is a fair criticism, at least for the ones that might as well have been there. I don't mind though. It's much more annoying when Blue Coins are limited to certain early stages when they might as well have been in the latter ones too. The platforming stages are generally viewed as the best part of the game and are not viewed as particularly difficult. --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. |

Topic | What's the worst game you've sunk 50+ hours into? |
ctesjbuvf 03/24/21 3:35:54 AM #205 | Circle always made more sense than X. I think Final Fantasy is brought up mostly because they're many and they get compared to each other. Besides, ideally, the game you liked the least but still put 50+ hours into isn't too bad or at least has enjoyable aspects. It's weird holding mini-games against FFX when you can lose that one game you're forced to play (and likely will on your first playthrough). I dislike Blitzball. Maybe it would be fun if you could control anyone when the other team had the ball. But you don't have to invest yourself even the slightest in it. Unlike what it seemed like at some point in this topic, you're not forced to power up celestial weapons at all.

ctesjbuvf 03/21/21 6:52:01 AM #120 | Surprised Mario is brought up at all, I feel like that must be a misinterpretation. Doing something big for someone is not the same as being a simp. He's usually saving the world along with Peach, and while he does go lengths to save her, it's not like he does anything for her before her life is in danger. He's more of a peace keeper, which often involves saving Peach. Otacon is a very good choice. It's not important whether or not he gets some, it's whether or not getting some makes a difference. If Otacon was only like that right after being with Naomi it would be a different story, but he'd act the same regardless. --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. |
