Glad to see The Mary Skelter Trilogy get the attention it deserves Neptunia is good and all but like @jasonblalock4429 said it's Compile and Idea Factory's best series (Though Death end;reQuest 1 and 2 and it's upcoming spinoff and 3rd game deserves some honorable mention) I am kinda interested in Neptunia however.

Yeah, these games are quirky and over-complicated, but I think they're probably the best things that Iffy/Compy have ever put out. There's actually pretty good design, and the scenario and stories are genuinely creative. Certainly a lot better than another lazy cut-and-paste Neptunia sequel.

Spire doesn't really allow you to "pick" you build. You just have to make it work with what you're given. That's the rogue experience. Also, restarting from X position in a run isn't very variable as the game changes so much based on your actions and path taken. 10 people could play the same seed and all get completely different runs.
@fivedollargames55555
@fivedollargames55555 2 месяца назад
I wouldn't want to restart from position x. (Even though with seeded runs you can already sort of do that). I wouldn't want a permanent save system either. Just a restart battle option. Because although you say the game changes so much, there's a lot of things that don't. Each enemies AI only has 1-3 options. You do have to make due with what options you're given but that's also the point. If you're unfamiliar with builds and each of their viabilities and drawbacks in combination with the enemies you'll be facing, then you're just guessing when you're playing. You're relying on chance instead of making a plan and executing it. And to be fair, that is a way some people enjoy playing, and you are correct that it's more inline with a rogue like experience. However, based off the state of Slay the Spire 1, and assuming Slay the Spire 2 will be similar (if it's significantly different like a new direction for the game throw my suggestions out the window) I don't think a restart button will inhibit those people from starting over and playing the game the way they want to. While a restart button would help me with how I like to play the game.

It can eat up a ton of time getting set up again if you're on the last islands and end up dying. That was one thing I did not like about the game. How it destroys all your walls and turn all your recruits back into beggars. Even if you've sealed the mountain portal on an island this happens.

I don't really understand what your problem with his video is. He was just explaining that he created using psychology and experimentation, and said that it wasn't perfect. He didn't morally grandstand or call other methods wrong. If someone is watching his video, they're looking for a generalized solution to get someone into gaming.
@fivedollargames55555
@fivedollargames55555 2 месяца назад
The main thing, was that the last thing he talked about was more important than the rest of the video but he only spent 30 seconds on that, and 20 minutes on things that are arbitrary. Things that are more important deserve more time than things that are less important in my opinion. It would be more helpful if the focus was trying to find ways for someone new to video games to have fun. Or ways to persuade others to get into video games. Not that Mario is too daunting to get into video games. Heck, one of my sister's only video games she enjoys is the first one she played which was Super Mario Bros. He used an example from his life of what he did, I used examples from my life. They do not align with what he talked about for 20 minutes. And hence this response, since other options are more worth talking about.

I have such mixed feelings on this one. On one hand, it's very refreshing to see a game about adults dealing with adult issues, and the puzzle gameplay is surprisingly fun. But my god, its overall view of adult relationships is SO dismal. Your only choices are "cold controlling b*tch" vs "psychopathic demoness." It feels like a dating sim made by someone who hates dating. And then, if anything, the "Full Bodied" update is even MORE confusing. Adding a trans girl / okama as a third option is a fascinating creative choice, but why in the hell did they make her look like a kid??? Especially when she's almost certainly the best option, story-wise! You can bring peace and harmony to the earth, but only if you don't mind feeling like a total p*do. Just... WTF. Seriously.

Last year Trine 5 came out, and while I think it's still a fun game, I regret that it's more restrictive than ever with your options. Trine 1 and 2 might have been easier, but that meant that you can solve the problems in many ways, and it would be interesting for a Trine game to actually combine difficulty and creativity. For this reason, Trine 5 was only ranked 47 in my ranking of good games from last year on my channel.

The issue with dbd is that there is no protection for new players. I have over 3000 hours in the game and I still sometimes get matches with players that I newer to the game or less skilled. The game uses a skill based system. It is based on kills and escapes. When you are new, you are placed in the middle, which makes no sense. There is also a point when reaching a certain MMR from which you can't lose MMR. And if you have a streak of wins by luck, you end up playing in high MMR without you actually deserving to be there. This is on top of the game being extremely grindy. You need roughly 4,000,000 blood points to get a character to prestige 3 so you unlock all 3 perks at tier 3. You need to do it for all 73 characters. That is 292,000,000 bloodpoints, with 2 new characters being released every 3 months. Most characters can be unlocked through 70 hours of gameplay each. But some must be purchased for $5 a pop or $7 for a killer and survivor pair. Some DLCs have 2 survivors and 1 killer. So you have a game that is grindy, unbalanced and overpriced. While the game is a mess, there is no incentive to change since there is nothing like DBD out there. Many games came and went and that is the only time when the devs are ambitious. The second they manage to get the competition closed, they are halfassing updates again. It took them 7 years to improve the grind. That is just because of a competition having a better grind.

Your getting newer players in the current mmr? Then your clearly not high mmr. My matches are all crazy difficult. It used to be a mix with mostly average games with the hint of either easy or hard but not now. If your speaking of the current mmr then your not in the high mmr rating and thank god for that because even for vets its a grind

@fivedollargames55555
@fivedollargames55555 5 месяцев назад
After spousal review, we decided to just leave this as a comment instead of its own video. As a new player, if I saw this comment, I'd think. "Wow, sounds like this is a grindy unfun game. I better go play something else." So, this comment contributes to fewer new people playing Dead by Daylight, and thus contributes to killing the game. As a person who likes playing videogames, I like seeing games succeed, but admittedly I'm not really tied to Dead By Daylight so let's delve in. I view dead by daylight to be a competitive game that one could play forever, constantly perfecting their skills and adapting to both patches and players "The issue with dbd is that there is no protection for new players. " So I'm going to stop you right there For me it's kind of the opposite If I've played the game for a long time, I don't want to play with or against new players Because in a competitive environment, I view it as a waste of my time I'm not increasing my skills, just helping others or pwning them If I were to a new player committed to Dead By Daylight, or any competitive game, I do not want protection, I want to get better And that comes from losing a bunch to people who know how to play the game, it comes from losing to people who are a part of the community Admittedly, I wouldn't mind some protection if I was on a losing streak, just so that I could experience a win But that's going to happen anyways just because people are drunk or their mom catches them at a bad time So it's not really needed Anyways, continuing on "I have over 3000 hours in the game and I still sometimes get matches with players that I newer to the game or less skilled." Which sounds like your complaining about playing with new players as a veteran player and I can sympathize with that. "The game uses a skill based system. It is based on kills and escapes. When you are new, you are placed in the middle, which makes no sense." That's an exaggeration. There are problems for doing it that way, but someone above the developers at Behaviour Interactive believes that the pros outweighs the cons. And dead by daylight is not the only game to have done this, as when I played Heroes of Newerth forever ago, they did a similar thing. anyways "There is also a point when reaching a certain MMR from which you can't lose MMR." That's normal "And if you have a streak of wins by luck, you end up playing in high MMR without you actually deserving to be there." I simply disagree. If you get somewhere by luck alone, you still deserve to be there. But it does make luck a curse as much as it is a blessing. "This is on top of the game being extremely grindy." "You need roughly 4,000,000 blood points to get a character to prestige 3 so you unlock all 3 perks at tier 3." "You need to do it for all 73 characters." "That is 292,000,000 bloodpoints, with 2 new characters being released every 3 months." "Some DLCs have 2 survivors and 1 killer. " Now, hold on. You failed to put why you need to do that for all 73 characters. I believe you're implying that, in order to truly play the game, you need the ability to freely choose every perk and character. But I'm not sure. If that is the case though, I disagree. In a competitive game, I seek to increase my skills And my skills are based off of how I use the perks that I have, if any. But let's say that I can't develop certain skills until I have certain perks In that case, I need skills to identify the perks that I really need and ignoring the rest And until I have those perks, I should focus on developing other skills "Most characters can be unlocked through 70 hours of gameplay each. But some must be purchased for $5 a pop or $7 for a killer and survivor pair." Well as someone who actually pays their own electric bill. If I felt that I couldn't play the game without a particular killer or survivor It's actually cheaper for me to just outright buy the killer or survivor. This is due to the price of electricity being about 11 cents per kilowatt hour, and that I believe my computer uses at least 1 killowatt hour per hour gaming. (It's possible that my computer doesn't, I only did a rough approximation.) "So you have a game that is grindy, unbalanced and overpriced." If a game is fun, play it. If it's grindy, that's just an excuse to play it more. If it's not fun, don't play it. If it's grindy, doesn't matter, go do something else. I think any pvp game is unbalanced, but that's fine It's not overpriced. My reasoning there is because I easily got $8 worth of fun in the two hours a played the game. I could easily spend a hundred more and still be happy with it Now if I spent 3000 hours in the game like you, I probably would hate it at that point, but it'd be my own fault "While the game is a mess, there is no incentive to change since there is nothing like DBD out there." There are hundreds of great games out there, just give them a chance. You may need help identifying which games are great, and there is plenty of that on youtube. This channel mostly talks about what a game actually is, so it's a decent starting point, but I don't have as much content on it as I want. "Many games came and went and that is the only time when the devs are ambitious." As someone who has a full time job in software development, I doubt it, but anyways "The second they manage to get the competition closed, they are halfassing updates again." I don't understand what you're saying. Are you saying that when there's competition, Behaviour Interactive releases awesome updates to Dead by Daylight, and when the competition is gone, they aren't? Because, that's not the case. For one. Behaviour Interactive is a business. Businesses have an unsatisfiable lust for money. They always want to be bigger, regardless of competition. For two. Dead By Daylight has had constant competition thanks to Fortnite coming out one year later, which is still going strong "It took them 7 years to improve the grind. That is just because of a competition having a better grind." If they are learning and improving because of competition, that's actually a good thing. Rather than complain about how long it took, it's better to complain about how bad it was and how it's so much better now. Without competition it is sometimes hard to see how to improve something. Anyways, go ahead and make fun of me or something. I frequently do these TLDRs in replies or when I express my opinion on something.

@fivedollargames55555 5 месяцев назад
Yeah I enjoyed it, I find it easy to enjoy things. I uninstalled it because I'm probably not going to play it again for a while and need the room. I got at least 150 games to review, and what I play off recording is heavily based off my mood. I'm in the mood for an immersive plot and environment that I'm unfamiliar with that I can take at a slow pace. So I'm doing Atomic Heart on Armageddon and having a fantastic time. After that I'll probably do a mixed review platformer and then My Lovely Wife. For one of my kids I'm doing Kirby's Return to Dreamland and for my friend I'm playing FFVII Remake when he can watch live as I've not been through it and I believe the sequel is coming out soon. Mainly though, I'm just not in the mood for a forever game right now.
