He was quite racist. I know that.

Him and literally everybody else in that period. It's really not something that discredits him whatsoever.


It shows up in his works a lot more often than other writers of that period though considering one of the most common themes of his work is feelings of alienation and fear created by other cultures (who inevitably end up being savages who worship/call down some horrible being or another). I mean, I love a lot of his stuff, but I totally get why people would be driven away from it too

I'd be hard-pressed to call RE3 bad, but as someone playing them all when they were coming out it's a lot less memorable than 2 for me. The RPD looked so unique and was like the mansion from 1 in that it really wanted you to memorize its layout and figure out the best ways through it, and whenever I play 3 I feel like I'm trapped mostly in a big collection of oversimilar city streets for the first half of the game and the second half of the game is made up of small locations you don't stay in long enough to get used to. The level design would have to be my main complaint

But I liked the weapons and combat, and some of the enemy designs were realm cool. There's no way I could hate a PSX resident evil game

the funniest part of this topic is that the thing you're bitching about is actually one of the few legitimate uses of the term ableism

ableism is (one of the few) examples of actual "SJW" behavior before that term was ran into the ground just as hard as people were running ableism into the ground. But you're supposed to be laughing at the people who use the term to call you a bigot for saying "stupid" or "dumb", not to mock the plight of people in wheelchairs genius

Sony fanboys seem the most aggressively annoying, at least this generation. They're really shitty about every other company generally, and being the most popular console this generation seems to have tugged over a lot of the garbage populace the 360 used to hold. I think they would win by sheer amount of assholes alone.

Xbox fans were definitely the worst last gen but seem to have kind of shrunk away this gen. Most of them kind of keep to themselves and while you occasionally get the "DIE WEEBS MADDEN COD HALO FOREVER" type, they're a fuckton more rare than they used to be.

Nintendo fans are the ones everyone like to bitch about, but honestly I see a vast majority of people being annoying while complaining about them than I actually have annoying Nintendo fans.

What makes Goombella so good?

Tattle

Yeah, but that just shows their HP. It doesn't really make you do more damage and the rest of her abilities are generally worse than the other partners. So you'd have to Tattle, waste a turn switching out, and then use the better partner.


You waste a turn in a super easy games where turn wasting doesn't particularly matter in exchange for funny charming dialogue, which is 80% of the draw of the game. I think it's a fair trade

Also, her hints sometimes reveal weaknesses and stuff and that would help for Game Grumps, who generally can't figure things out unless it's explicitly said
