No there were a lot of event CEs you can only get 4 guaranteed. Having bad memories of the Halloween Princess CE of the old days.

Maybe you got lucky with drops for a lot of other ones so far but I feel like the only ones where it's a sure thing are with the 3* CEs.

So how do resplendents work

Like I have the Sophia nature I want saved but I think the resplendent has +2 all stats and different art right? So like if I merge her into the nature I want to use does she lose her art and +2 stats I'm not sure how it all works.

Huh I just glanced through the list again because I saw Stardew Valley mentioned and didn't recall a write-up for it.

I completely glossed over the write-up for Grim Dawn and I really want to play Grim Dawn now. I'm one of those weird people who think Diablo 3 (in its current state, which is a far cry from where it was at release, mind you) is superior to both Path of Exile and Torchlight 2 and wasn't big on either of those.

Grim Dawn looks really cool though.

Yeah I mean the risk of losing is nil even when I'm being gimmicky but I dunno I just don't enjoy playing higher difficulties. I'd rather just play the braindead 4 and keep running different strategies so the game feels different each time even if it's not difficult.

I like difficulty but it's just bad difficulty for me.

That's an interesting read on Civ V.

I actually kinda dislike playing the game on higher difficulties cause of the arbitrary bonuses other Civs get and would rather stick to normal difficulties and just try to win with something gimmicky if I'm feeling it's too easy

I wonder if I'm a minority among people who have played as much as me though

(I also have an unplayed Civ VI on my Steam shelf. I feel your pain)

I think them having the same name as one of my parents would be offputting.

On paper it kinda makes sense but in practice I'm not sure it does. Like I always called my mom "mom" y'know.

Like I've had vague interest in a girl with my mom's name before. At first I thought it was weird but yeah got to thinking about it more and reached the conclusion that it shouldn't really matter.

Never ended up dating her or anything though so who knows.

That being said I have the "old person name" problem (Gertrude etc) for sure.

I'm not saying he's 'objectively right' either but I think there's a bit more nuanced a discussion than just opinion sharing and one side can feel justified in being more right than the other. He has the right to be a bit disdainful of the other side if he feels they're less grounded.

I'm not saying he's being completely PC, just that there's a difference between a guy disagreeing and being a bit flippant about it (this is him), disgreeing and outright calling the other side idiots (this is what you're saying he did), and further still making racist statements (worlds away from what he did or even what you said he did)

I think as long as the reason you think someone is an idiot is well justified it shouldn't be all that offensive-- particularly if you have to read between the lines to infer that he's calling people idiots. I feel there's enough meat on the bone for saying it shouldn't count that he's fine. At some point the burden is on the reader. Like hey, maybe you shouldn't treat this like some abhorrent thing to say just because it wasn't phrased in the most respectful way and you disagree with it, just a thought. There's a reason outrage culture is an expression these days-- he isn't doing anything remotely similar to saying black people suck.

People are a bit too quick to jump to "it's just your opinion, mannn"-- like if he thinks it's a dumb as hell opinion to have, I'm okay with him disrespecting the other side a bit. He isn't baselessly running people into the ground-- there's a clear reason he's doing it and it's not something that's cut and dry him being wrong either.

really? if i say "lopen is an idiot for posting on board 8," you think this is completely fine? i don't honestly believe that's your stance.

I wouldn't necessarily disagree with you if you can justify it-- you get a 500 post topic discussing whether posting on b8 makes you an idiot we can talk. Posting on b8 is a waste of time.

That would be a better analogy to make though. I almost wonder if you have a fundamental misunderstanding of why racism is such an awful thing though if you think the statements are comparable. Like there's a lot more to it than the mere act of "offending people"--why you offended people is important too.

matei is pretty much insinuating that anyone who thinks that you beat a game if you used rewind is an idiot. i'd say that's rather fucking offensive, whether you're "overly concerned with gamer cred" or not.

Even if you have thin skin and think this for some reason it's still a huge difference

Racism is bad because it's judging people for things they are, not things they did.

Judging people for things they've done is completely fine and shouldn't be considered offensive in the same way by any stretch

The analogy is not fine because one is a statement that is pretty much just generally offensive to anyone who isn't a racist and the other isn't unless you're overly concerned with gamer cred.

If you need further elaboration the primary difference between the statements is one is judging people for something they are and that's out of their control and the other is judging whether people did something based on their actions.

Well, I also feel there's a difference between a game that's difficult because it was designed to be difficult, and a game that's "difficult" only because it's unforgiving because checkpoints just weren't really a thing back then.

Like, games like Battletoads and Ninja Gaiden are obviously designed to be difficult.

That's true, and goes back to the "I'm not even going to ask for games that aren't difficult so it's never going to come up" deal.

Like you can go ahead and savestate all you want on a Super Mario Bros 3 or a Mega Man 4 because I'm just not going to even ask if you did to begin with

A Mike Tyson's Punch Out or a Ninja Gaiden or Double Dragon though you bet I am

That probably plays a part in why I consider using Switch savestates every now and then as checkpoints, so to speak, as not being so bad, since a lot of those games, if made later, probably would have checkpoints in them.

They weren't, though. If you're playing through a difficult game from that era part of the charm, and oftentimes why it's considered difficult to begin with, is a lack of checkpoints.

Like it's kinda like saying if Star Wars A New Hope was made with today's filmmaking standards it would be very similar to The Force Awakens and as such watching TFA is basically the same thing. But they're not the same thing at all. If you're spraying your NES games with checkpoints abound you're experiencing a different game than the actual NES game, and imo it's cheating because the Switch hasn't standardized these checkpoints whatsoever so it's a bit more complicated than just saying "I played it on the Switch"

But again there are acceptable ways out there. "Adding checkpoints" is a bit beyond where I'd be okay with though on its face. I'd ask for elaboration on where they were, how frequent, etc.

To use Battletoads as the example, saving at the very beginning of Turbo Tunnels is definitely different than, say, saving after every wall.

This is a good example because it illustrates a lot of ways to use savestates

Someone who save states at the beginning of the Turbo Tunnels is fine to me because Stage 1 and 2 are trivial and not overly long to complete. And hell if you do that and then string a continuous playthrough after that and beat the game, you're fine too.

However, if you save state at pretty much any point after the beginning of the Turbo Tunnels-- be it anywhere in the tunnels themselves or at any later stage though your run is invalid. Because Battletoads is a marathon not a sprint. It hammers you with difficulties everywhere-- you doing each individual difficult segment by banging your head on it over and over, then saving after each segment in turn, it isn't really achieving anything.

Basically if you split up any difficult string of segments in a way that the game doesn't let you do, you're abusing savestates to a point where you're no better than password skipping, to me.

Like, I think a valid question along those lines would be... Do you shun speedrunners for abusing save states to practice specific sections over and over and over again instead of having to play through the entire level/game/whatever when they die? They're boosting their play in an unnatural way, by the same logic.

For practice is fine but you need to be able to do it while doing the whole run in one continuous stream at some point, not just piecemeal a playthrough by savestate spamming on every difficult segment-- that's not actually playing the game.

Not every game is meant to, nor should be, played like IWBTG though. I would consider the idea that you "completed a segment" by stripping it down into much smaller segments to be a technicality at best and an outright lie if you went really liberal with them.

Better (or functionally equal) to skip it and play what parts you didn't skip legitimately.

Using a password to skip 99% of the game is wayyyyyyy different than using save states.

Let's be real it's probably 85-90% at the worst

Savestates when properly abused can effectively skip 100% of the difficulty in the game which imo is worse for "beat the game" cred than skipping, particularly since passwords will often leave the most difficult stuff unskippable since that stuff is at the end of the game.

It's all about how they're used though. Conservative use of savestates to deal with points of tedium or used as an actual save point you properly enforce game overs on is generally fine as long as you don't delude yourself and be honest with what you're doing.

Like it's easy for example to call say Ninja Gaiden's stage 6-1 through 6-3 "tedium" cause you end up having to do them repeatedly when the boss dunks you, but I'd call savestating before the boss room abuse of a savestate rather than "removing tedium" because 6-2 in particular is very difficult so it's not really "tedious" to get through it again and again but part of the difficulty.

I have a disabled nephew who has to play games on the easiest settings to be able to beat them. He loves these games and they legitimately help him develop motor skills that he is severely lacking in. Do you think I give a shit whether or not randoms on the internet think kids like my nephew are beating games legit or not?

His twin sister (who came out of the womb normal) is actually trying to teach him how Switch rewind works, which is the cutest thing ever and clearly shows more humanity and more love than a lot of people in this topic are capable of.

To me, it doesn't matter that it wasn't a conscious design decision or that they didn't modify the ROMs; those are only distinctions on a technical level. The fact remains that the Switch versions of these games have a rewind feature, and all Switch versions of NES games having that feature, including for technical purposes, doesn't change that fact.

I would say you're the one arguing on a technical basis here more than me but whatever. Agree to disagree I guess-- there really is no more place for the argument to go.

It's tied to the Switch versions of those games. Every single Switch port having them does not mean they're not a part of said versions.

Actually it literally does mean that-- it wasn't a conscious design decision to add it to each Switch port. They didn't modify the ROMs or anything.

To me, though, the difference between jumping straight to the end of the game and using something like savestates is that, in the latter case, you're still doing everything that would normally be involved in a full playthrough of the game. Making it easier on yourself is not the same thing as completely bypassing it.

I'm not sure I'd consider a liberal use of save states and rewind really doing the segments I guess. Like you're not duplicating a scenario that resembles the actual gameplay. It's sort of what's the difference between doing a marathon and a 100m dash. Gameplay difficulty is often based on the marathon approach not breaking things into segments ala I Want To Be The Guy and such. If each individual segment is not actually that difficult you're warping the original intent of the gameplay to the point where in my eyes the only difference between that and outright skipping is checking a box, more or less. You didn't do the gameplay, except on a technicality.

Item 2 on the other hand is completely different because you're making things easier on yourself through strategy (beating Air Man first) as well as a gameplay mechanic, rather than something that's just tacked on to the game.

Also on that note I'm not sure I'd consider built in Switch features present on every retro game a gameplay mechanic-- that's like considering an emulator feature (which hey, that's what they are) a gameplay mechanic, basically-- the only difference is now it's on an official Nintendo release.

I mean, yes? The person doesn't necessarily have to care about the attack for it to be an attack.

When I say I don't think someone really beat a game it's not an attack per se. It's just an observation/statement of belief. It doesn't really matter to me except in the case of particularly difficult games. If someone beats Battletoads on the Switch I'm not gonna give them any props for it unless they explicitly say they didn't use savestates/rewinds. For a game like Battletoads that'd probably be my first question too.

On the flip side, a game like Mega Man 4 or Super Mario Bros 3 I'm probably not opening with that question or asking it at all. You don't really get any gamer cred to me for beating that as it's not particularly difficult so how you did it is not really important. We can just both say yeah we beat it, good game. I might ask if you played all the worlds in SMB3 because warp whistles are easy to get and some of the worlds are memorable experiences that would suck to miss (the giant world for example), but we're not gonna throw down about that.

Like I feel whether someone has beaten a game should not be considered an unwarranted attack in general. If you're not the type who has some sort of pride about gaming cred or whatever it shouldn't matter at all to you. If you are then you should take some pride in what you're doing and beat the games 'legitimately' and deserve to be attacked if you're cheaping through games for 'cred'

Let me explain why they're the same to start

In both cases you're circumventing a lot of the intended experience by using a game mechanic

One you're outright skipping a difficult part, one you're trivializing a difficult part, or many difficult parts, to the point where you're basically no longer experiencing what that portion of the game has to offer to the player.

Like when a segment of the game exists to challenge you and you are using features not in the original release to trivialize that challenge, what you're doing is removing that aspect of the game. Not unlike passwording through some difficult levels, I think.

So at what point does skipping become less egregious than rewinding?

Say a dude has a problem getting through Heat Man's stage and passwords through that, does all the rest by himself.

Did he beat Mega Man 2?

Also for the record I've been doing this way before Switch

You beat Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition on gold mode you didn't really beat the game in my eyes because you're robbing yourself a lot of the originally intended experience by doing so

But I'm not gonna argue about it, just scoff and encourage you to play the game in Yellow Mode so you can get the full experience.

And you know what, guarantee that most people arguing for the save states being completely legitimate way to "beat the game" have done this too-- maybe in less direct form but consider say passwords. Like, passwords exist in old games-- doubt many people are gonna agree someone beat Mega Man 2 if they password to Wily and beat him, are they? How is this different than savestate spamming through all the difficult stretches?

The irony of this topic is the people bashing Matei's stance are coming off as the less tolerant people here.

Like vehemently insisting using save states and rewind is "beating the game" is pretty much the exact same thing as vehemently insisting it isn't. But the group supporting the former has some sorta moral high ground about it because "elitism ka fooey"

Ultimately it's just gonna come down to the person-- you caring about being 'objectively right' is the problem not which side of the spectrum you're on.
