Topic | why do 95% of all indie games have to be difficult as fuck? |
Dikitain 12/06/18 8:38:54 PM #35 | If you are willing to look, there are some easier Indy games out there (usually the puzzle based ones). I mean part of it could be that I love puzzle games, but I don't have a lot of trouble with most of them. But yea, a lot of the 2D action games are basically all about the difficulty because they are an homage to the arcade style quarter eating games. --- I am a senior software engineer.

Topic | When do you start your Christmas/holidays shopping? |
Dikitain 12/06/18 1:23:11 PM #6 | Typically I take a ton of vacation in December (use it or loose it essentially) so I just do my shopping the say that starts, since it is usually a weekday and the stores aren't that busy. This year however I don't have to get anybody a present, so I am looking forward to not having to deal with it. I'll probably just walk around a few places trying to catch Pokemon in Go so I can transfer them to Let's Go. --- I am a senior software engineer.

Topic | These are my ten favorite stand up comedians. Which of my favorites is yours? |
Dikitain 12/06/18 11:42:50 AM #48 | Solid list, I would probably replace Sara Silverman with Joan Rivers or Lisa Lampanelli though. Carlin is a comedy god though, have to go with him. edit: Rivers, Joan Rivers. Why did I think Joan Collins was a comedian? --- I am a senior software engineer.

Topic | why did i take a series of pictures showing me make mac n cheese back in 2014 |
Dikitain 12/06/18 6:51:18 AM #5 | I think that was back when you were arguing that it was better without milk. (Which I don't necessarily disagree with, but I replace the milk with hot sauce for buffalo mac and cheese) --- I am a senior software engineer.

Nobody in their right mind buys a digital game unless it is 1) A pre-order 2) At the sale price Even in the case of #2, sales vary and people may wait for at least a 50 - 75% off sale.

Dikitain 12/05/18 9:18:03 AM #3 | I liked it when it was on, stopped watching when Amber Tamblyn joined. I like her as an actress, but man did she kill the humor of that show.

Topic | Gamestop is in the red. $488 million loss. |
Dikitain 12/04/18 3:46:14 PM #104 | I am pretty much entirely digital at this point except for Switch games (which I only own 4 of currently, and 1 came with the system), so if they go out of business nothing of value will be lost. Zerothma posted... If Gamestop goes under, I hope preorder bonuses suffer into oblivion and the mom and pop shops come back. I mean, there are two in the area that still survive but a couple more wouldn't hurt. I remember reading that for mom and pop shops, they make pretty much nothing off of new games (something like $5 a game) and they are required my publishers to stock a minimum of 20 or so which is why they don't bother selling them. No small store is going to sell 20 of any new game other then maybe Madden or Call of Duty. Plus they apparently don't get them on release day most times unlike the bigger stores, more like 2-3 days later. --- I am a senior software engineer.

Topic | My unpopular opinion: I don't think the Mass Effect series is very good. |
Dikitain 12/04/18 10:17:32 AM #17 | I agree on Mass Effect. The first game was good, but they just got worse and worse as the series went on (the ending wasn't even half the problem with 3). I have a TON of unpopular opinions, but the one that will probably piss off the most people is I love Final Fantasy 2.

Topic | What is the most WORTHLESS DLC you've ever bought in your life? |
Dikitain 12/03/18 1:16:40 PM #87 | shipwreckers posted... I used to think 20-40 dollars for DLC was excessive, but I'm now seeing some games on Steam with several hundred dollars of DLC, for a SINGLE GAME (some even pushing $1000+ in total content). Knowing the types of games those are for, you are not buying ALL of them and it is not expected you would. It is usually a case like The Sims where you buy the ones that you think would work best for your game experience and ignore the ones you would never use (For example, you want Pets and Seasons, but not College Life or Night Life). In those cases I am fine with it because those are games you are spending hundreds upon hundreds of hours playing, putting in another $60 worth of DLC to enjoy it more isn't that big of a deal. --- I am a senior software engineer.

Topic | Which gameboy do you prefer? |
Dikitain 12/03/18 12:58:40 PM #13 | Pocket was the one I owned the longest, so that one I guess.

It amazes me how much stuff Japan steals from the west then thinks we are too dumb to understand it.

Topic | Do you like 2D or 3D games more? |
Dikitain 12/03/18 10:42:47 AM #15 | I don't think this is necessarily due to the added third dimension, but I think 2D games usually find more innovative ways to get around their limitations and are therefore more fun. 3D games are usually less restrictive in their design, but as a result the developers tend to me more lazy in innovating fun ways for the gamer to interact with the world and just rely on the fact that it is 3D. --- I am a senior software engineer.

Topic | I don't understand why people didn't like The Last Jedi. |
Dikitain 12/03/18 6:57:14 AM #17 | Mead posted... Far from a perfect movie but the reaction to the movie is beyond overblown. The film was received well by critics and audiences, only on social media do people bitch about it. That doesn't mean the movie is good. Critics can (and usually are) bought out to make good reviews and people were going to see it anyways because Star Wars. I mean if you really want an indicator, look how Solo did. One of the most popular characters in the Star Wars series and his origin story completely bombs all because it followed The Last Jedi. Even Rogue One pulled in great numbers and that was only an answer to a 20 year old Internet meme. --- I am a senior software engineer. If you see me post here, I am tired of writing TPS reports. |

Dikitain 11/30/18 4:33:10 PM #22 | Most busses in my area usually wait for cars to pass them before putting the blinkers on (allowing the kids to cross) so they aren't jamming up traffic.
