which chapter are you in?
... ending of the first non-tutorial case

played around 9 hours of the game so far, kinda didn't play it for two weeks as I was (and still am) beating planescape torment. Game is alright but I've just been doing so much other shit that I haven't really played it for long

oh hey I have beaten that game

loop hero is a very interesting game IMO, as it's in a kinda unexlored genre, it's like a clicker/idle game with roguelike elements, which is nice

the actual roguelikes element only serve as a way of progression as there isn't that much RNG in the game actually. Due to the way the game is made, a playthrough cant really last that long before you run out of spaces on the map, so you need to make multiple playthroughs.

the gameplay loop (pun not intended) itself is just doing a run, maybe upgrading a thing in your overworld, choosing if you want to use that new card or not and then just repeating, the game itself is also pretty chill, you kinda look the character move around and numbers goes up. There is active planning on where you place each card but like it doesn't really matter, by the third run I feel you kinda develop an algorythm you follow, the only real exceptions are rivers

There is a story but only really because it seems like every game is legally required to have some sort of story, but it's really not the focus at all

it's just a good game to play and see the clock move 20 times faster

Bone by Jeff Smith

first of all, when I was looking for this book I realized it wasn't just one book, but a franchise, thankfully I found one that was like a compilation of every single of those, so it wasn't a big deal

next thing I realized was that this wasn't a book, but a comic, which is fine by me

I've only read the first book (out from boneville), as this really isn't my thing, there isn't much logical justification there, it's just comedy and not my type of comedy

there really isn't any real plot outside of the comedy, the art is also pretty stale, a page normally consists of a pretty simple setting and hten the character changing experssion without really moving

I don't really have anything more to say

Ok, this is one of my favorite comics, and honestly, I'm ticked off at you.
Every time I try to request something, you just make a bad review of it without fully watching/reading/playing it
I requested WOY and you only watched 4 episodes, I requested G-Darius and you never even played it, saying that you didn't review videogames despite ACTUALLY REVIEWING VIDEOGAMES, and now I requested Bone, and you just read the first volume and called it some dumb comedy book, you called the art stale, and you probably never take the time to even contemplate any book with illustrations other than manga.
Are you deciding to be a Jerkwad and troll me, or do a lot of foreign people just hate me in general for existing?

Okay, let's one one by one, i'm a human being, I make posts on OT, I make this thread for fun. I'm not an YT reviewer who gets paid doing this, I'm just doing this to obtain recommendations that wouldn't have otherwise gotten. However, if there is something I disliked, I wont finish it. The only thing that finishing it would bring me is that I've spent like 5 hours of my life watching something I dont enjoy to make a review that the person who requested it is going to disagree with. And as i'm just doing this for my personal enjoyement, and if i'm not enjoying it, what's the point?

When a series starts in a way that you dont like, it's VERY hard to regain my attention later, as if you dont develop emotional connection to the characters, develop interest in the plot, etc, every subsequent plot point is going to fall flat. So if it safe to assume that if you didn't enjoy the first 4 episodes of something, I wont be enjoying chapter 20.

now, for your requests, I don't have anything against you, it's just that we seem to have very different tastes, also you seemed to missunderstand some of my points

1- Wonder Over Yonder: TLDR of my analysis, episodic comedy show, no real plot or anything outside that, and the style of comedy that it had, I just did not enjoy it, so there wasn't anything in that show for me

2- G-Darius, this is a bullet hell arcade style game. I never said I don't review videogames, I meant that I review plots and narratives and that sort of stuff, I only mention gameplay when it's related to the plot in any sort of way. With G-Darius, while it is a fun game, analyzing bullet hell games is not something I know how to do

3- Bone: Kinda the same as wonder over yonder tbh, very simplistic comic, no real plot, only comedy, and i'm not a fan of this type of comedy, meaning, there is nothing here for me

sorry for the delay

helck

this manga is a fucking mess in every sense of the word, the manga itself is fine-ish, you will enjoy it if you're into action comedy, however, for me, there were some elements that just made me dislike a lot of the reading experience

First of all, I haven't seen a manga that has more .5 chapters than this, like, you're reading a intense fight scene and every chapter there is just a random slice of life section. In a lot of ways the manga just feels like it wants to be a slice of life, however it just seems like i'm switching between two different mangas and it kinda kills a lot of the flow this manga may had for me

not only that, but the way some elements about the characters are presented are kinda wack, like, from the very start of the manga you're introduced to classes and power levels and stuff like that. However, most of them dont really have any point of reference, so they don't really mean anything. Not only that, but I feel a lot of those elements are kinda dropped after the introduction

for a better example, very early on you're shown a graph of the hierarchy of power, and there is a certain group called the heavinly kings which apparently are extremely powerful. We get introduced to one of these characters REALLY early on, and as one of the earliest characters, we dont know how strong the other groups are, and given that the entire point is that they're more powerful than x, but we haven't seen how strong x is, it's just kinda weird

the actual story is just nothing too special IMO, it's nice, i'm just not the demographic for any of the fluff


next: nothing else to read
started chapter 2 of rain code

Genocidal Organ and Harmony by Project Itoh
Either the books (if you can find them) or the movies (or both if you like)
They're not a series but take place in the same universe at different times (Harmony does reference the events of Genocidal Organ a bit)

I've already beaten mario wonder

IMO it's not the best mario game ever as you claim it to be, it's good, sure, but that title is reserved for mario galaxy 2, nostalgia glasses I know but that game is sick and I keep coming back to it

now, I guess you meant to say 2D mario game, which is again, not really the case as mario maker exists

but in the mainline 2d mario game series, I do think it's a pretty good one. It's hard to rank mario games like that, every game with like the exception of mario 2 kinda stands on the same level, even with stuff like super mario bros for the wii u, the criticism was that it wasn't original, not that it wasn't fun (Which it was)

Now, mario woner does feel pretty different to the previous mario game, for one, and the things that is most obvious are the wonder seeds, you pick them up and the level is transformed, I really like this, it really makes the experience playing the game for the first time really good

I don't know how I feel about the removal of warp zones, they have been in every mario game and wonder does not have it. I personally liked them, as it kinda gave more experienced players some sort of reward, but I dont mind it that much

The level design is really really good, it does feel more crazy than in the preivous games, not only that, but the optional content in this game is probably one of the hardests out of any 2d mario game, only really rivaled by the special world of mario world. It does break a lot of the conventional design structure that mario games had always followed, however, I feel that some of the levels wouldn't be nearly as exciting as the wonder seeds, which dont ask as something like the star coins in mario bros wii. Wonder seeds aren't hidden half the time, which makes sense as the levels are built around COLLECTING the wonder seed, in fact, you cant progress in the game without picking them up


Thing is, the way the achieved this difficulty is not my favouite approach, they wanted to make levels difficult but not complex, so they removed all movement options. There is no flying powerup in mario wonder, there isn't even yoshi, you're limited to regular movement and projectiles. Difficulty isn't in like a mario maker way or mario world romhack way where you're flying all over the place and you feel powerful and the gameplay is frenetic. Mario wonder difficulty is a lot slower, and more focused on precise movement, which agian, to each their own, but I don't think it feels nearly as good.

my only other real complain is that I wish the levels were longer, specially the bonus levels, a lot of levels are like under 1 minute to 100%, which I think it's just a little bit too short, this was already a staple in the franchise but mario wonder turns it up to the max

The badges are fine, there is variety but I ended up just using the one I thought was the most overpowered (twirl as double jump). Badges felt more like celeste assist mode than power ups.

The only thing that I can say for sure that I do think is a bad precedent for the franchise, is that in co-op move they removed the ability to pick up and throw "friends". This was part of the fun of mario co-op and I think it's a total shame that they decided to remove it. Yeah I cried when I was 6yo and my older brother threw me to a bottomless pit, but god it was fun to do it to him later

To sum up it's just really different to the rest of the franchise, and while it's original and really fucking fun, there are still certain elements that rubs me the wrong game, but still, it's mario, this game is still a 8-9/10 for me, the fact that mario games are this consistently good is just impressive

Too many cooks:

I think this would have been funnier if I hadn't seen every mister jagger video 3 times when I was growing up, like, actually, the intro on this video is straight up pulled from agente especial kevin, just with higher budget. But in a way that's the charm of jagger.



the comedy style is also extremely similar to the one of jagger's being the purest shock, rudest comedy. The bits in this video also feel like it would be something from MACHO ALFA TOTAL or AWAKEN 2x09 [Español - Castellano], just that agente especial kevin actually came a year before too many cooks, while those two came out later

so yeah, this is just a jagger video but with higher budget, and given that I don't completely vibe with all the jokes old jagger videos did and the fact that the higher budget kinda removes some of the charm, I don't know what to think about this short.

Also given that this is just comedy I can say anything too substanctial about it, it's just if you vibe with this comedy or not.

game is the purest definition of a 7/10, like, the game is entirely fine, however the moment I see any other game I decide to flop to that, I have stopped playing it and forced myself to keep playing 5 times already, and since I still have like 40 hours left, I just decided to stop trying

Is undertale yellow just an fan-made expansion for undertale or is it like undertale 2 where the game would hold on it's own even if it wasn't a touhou fangame?

----- The Lion King (1994) -----

I haven't seen this movie in over 12 years probably, the only thing I really remembered from this movie was the sentence "hakuna matata" and that a character died. Not only that, but I was primarily raised with studio ghibli, not so much disney.

Now, watching the lion king fresh being 18, it's for sure not as shocking as it was when I was a kid (shocking, I know). Things like mufasa death is just a little bit dumb IMO. However, this movies has some really great stuff, the songs they include are really cool, I like the thought of the characters really growing older over the movie, representing how they have more responsabilities and their thought process changes

this is the most apparent on that one scene where they're looking at the night sky and timon asks what the stars were. I thought that scene was really neat. Specially for a movei targetting the demographic it does, it really sends a really great message

However, besides being a really good kid/family movie, from my perspectives it was lacking in some aspects, mainly, I can see now that the end of the movie was a little bit forced. Mainly the entire arc of the second half of the movie, where nala finds simba and tells them to come back.

My problem with this arc is that the point is that the kingdom is fucked and they have to come back as they're the true king and they need to fix shit. And they have been years living in that kingdom without any fixes, and they're the only ones that can change this fact. Not only that, but they assumed simba was dead.

If you had what basically was a dictatorship, you wouldn't care about the line of succession then, you would just unionize and drop a giant boulder in scar's head, not only that, butafter the actual ending of the movie, you would assume there would be a lot more problems with the hyenas as they had basically moved permanently to that kingdom.

The movie is still good, it's just not my favourite to watch at this age.

i'd say it could hold on its own
may play it before the other suggestions as I was going to play it anyways then

ahh i see, hmm well, i just really want to see your thoughts on Season 2 of the anime, so maybe if you really dont like Season 1 you could skip there and considering most of the story is packed in Season 2 and isn't so deep, but im not sure if it will ruin your immersion or something...
