Then get blocked, troll

Can we please stop injecting Hollow Knight into everything?

My issue is that I already stated which one I liked and disliked.

Plus the way your comment is worded made it sound like you were going for some big ‘gotcha’ arguement, like “but you said you like Zelda so it doesn’t make sense to not like Darksiders”

I think it’s cool, as English could benefit from re-introducing “ð” (eth) and “þ” (thorn) and getting rid of “c” (because it’s fucking useless)

My only gripe with the user in question is that they get snippy when they’re corrected on when to use “þ”. They’re specifically using the usage in Middle English, not how Old English or modern Icelandic use them.

Alright, this one got me cracking up on my lunch break

Maybe a spicy Po’ Boy that’s twice the size?

I live in Ohio. They absolutely exist.

That being said, a lot of people in western Ohio go to Myrtle Beach every year, enough that I don’t really question it

Only if you aren’t going to eat in the restaurant. If you eat in you have to pay sales tax

Hmm. I’ll have to check out the demo. The screenshots of the gameplay make me thunk I’ll bounce off it, but figuring that out is what a dwmo is for

And your point is?

Good luck hunting down every last book that people mighr have. Especially when The Bible falls under the purview

I’m not raging out. It’s just that the show’s fanbase is fairly hostile, to put it mildly.

Mainly, I was trying to head off some bad-faith arguments I’ve seen used in the past

Since you like Metroidvanias, have you tried Ori and the Blind Forest? Personally I found it to be tuned very well for difficulty. I ended up beating it without realizing there was a triple-jump ability you could find.

Unfortunately the sequel, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, wasn’t as good in my opinion. They ended up pulling a few mechanics from Hollow Knight, which detracted from the uniqueness of the first game.

Fair.

I think I was able to deep dive into the series’ lore because I started with Halo 3, and because I was a teenager at the time. I eventually went back to play CE and 2 and they… are certainly products of their time

I’ve played a number of Zelda games, including the original and enjoyed pretty much all the ones I’ve tried.

I’ve only tried the first of the new God of War games and hated it. I dropped it after 3-4 hours. I was annoyed with how clunky the controls were and it was mainly set arenas for combat with boring hallways with slow running in between

Pretty much. They need a different genre name, like “masochist” or “try-hard”. A lot of these games are significantly more punishing than the original Dark Souls ever was

the conclusion that the game wasn’t respecting my time

That’s exactly why I quit too. You’re smarter than me, since I spent over 30 hours on it before quitting.

Hollow Knight.

There’s a couple of things the devs could have done to make things way more tolerable, like not putting the fucking shades in the middle of platforming challenges and giving health bars to bosses so you can tell when you should go somewhere else instead of face-tanking them for 3 hours.

But god forbid anyone says anything even remotely disparaging against the game, as they’re quickly mobbed by fanboys and told to “git gud” because they treat masochistic games like HK as some perverse dick-measuring contest.

And unfortunately I can’t away from hearing about it with everyone sperging out over the upcoming sequel.

Agreed. I got about halfway through the first one before I quit
