Reminds me of the whole Zelda should be like Skyrim thing.  :yuck

The people behind the new Zelda said they were inspired by Skyrim and games like Skyrim though.

Difference is they're seasoned game developers aka smarter than 99% of the idiots saying that, and will take and apply things from Skyrim that enhance Zelda instead of ripping it off wholesale.

I think bluemax, as a game dev, is actually kind of impacted by how gamers/article writers/whatever the fuck else talk about games so I can see where his distaste for various descriptors and pigeon-holing stems from. For the most part though I just play a game, is it fun? Yes, keep playing. No, go outside or find something else to play.

Nah, he comes as petty. I don't even like Dark Souls but this isn't a good look.

Every Ninthing Indie Dev uses "Dark Souls" as a way of saying "I made a game that is brutally, unfairly hard because like From Software I have no idea how to properly balance a game. Plus it gives me street cred."

My game ideas:

Art Simulator 2KXX - You have to take the AP art history exams from the last ten years (ka-ching, annual updates baby) and if you don't score a 5 all your accounts on video game message boards are perm'd.

Circumnavigation! - Like those submarine games but actually hardcore. Plug in your USB sextant and astrolabe and take to the seas, matey. Let's see if you're actually as hardcore as your PC gamer shitposting would have us believe.

Integration and Peripheralization - Segagaga but about world-systems theory. Many peripheral and system puns be found here.

I do gotta agree with Bluemax on people using "Dark Souls" for "Nintendo-Hard" now a days. The numerous "WOW THIS IS HARD LIKE DARK SOULS" comments is just grating. :doge

There was/is a joke in the anime community where a somewhat dark/gritty show is called "The Madoka of [insert genre] anime".

I personally loved the Metroid Prime combat but it takes like an hour to get why it's good. In MP games you don't have to aim because of lock on targeting but instead you dodge everything being shot at you which makes sense with a single player game where you have no allied AI to draw fire. Dodging around and timing your shots while monitoring your health, missiles, and beam type is tense especially when you have multiple enemies and some of them require switching visors to lock on to them.
Dodging slow moving projectiles used to be a thing in FPS games. Then real guns took over.

Yeah my point is that you really have to have an unusually specific view of what makes an FPS enjoyable to knock it for not rewarding twitch aiming skills. It's like if someone said that Kate Upton doesn't have a thin enough waist or that the original Shelby GT 350 was too ostentatious or something. Maybe those can be actual flaws but you're missing something beautiful by focusing on them.

My biggest gripe with neogaf pretending to be a site where people can talk about things is that 99% of people think they are giving a TED talk and when they step off the podium they start detective posting and not listening to each other. The aforementioned often gets attributed to outrage culture, but I dont think it's that, it's just lazy assholes being allowed to have an out when someone disagrees with them.

No one is really reading what someone else is posting, they're just waiting for each other to post words, phrases or anime avatars that will allow them to quickly group and ignore each other so their own ideas remain safe and unchallenged.

It's fine as a safe space, but it's not a discussion forum, nor is it a chill forum where you can crack jokes like it was maybe 5 - 10 years ago. I think once we all get over that, we can course correct and start enjoying neogaf for the unintended comedy masterpiece it is.

This is, I think, the default state of mind for human beings. You want social harmony, because not having it is stressful. The easiest way to have social harmony is to glob together with people that hold similar views. The easiest way to tell where you 'belong' is to follow folks who feel comfortable enough to announce their views loudly, sometimes obnoxiously so.

Not gonna lie, had that once and it was a good laugh but all said and told it is the baby version of any occupation akin to consequences / exquisite corpse which can be played for free and with actual limitless creativity. There is also no real competitive or win state. The novelty wore thin halfway through the only time I played it. Congrats to the designers on monetizing the shit out of that, I guess.

Last night I was reading a book discussing older Japanese PC games and the subject of lolicon came up. From the book, lolicon initially got its popularity due to the whole 'pubic hair censoring' issue in Japan - it would actually be less legal to show an of-age girl with pubic hair than loli. (of course, that disappoints me since y'all know my love of the au naturel look by now) And those fanservice Japanese games have been around forever, just they were almost exclusively on PC and would hardly ever get stateside release (there was Knights of Xentar and some of the Rance games iirc). Now, the fanservice games are more visible due to the proliferation of the Internet and the fact many of them sell better in the west than Japan, so more get localized.

I switched one of my sites over to HTTPS this year. Wasn't trivial but wasn't super hard either.

The biggest bitch was the images. If you have user-generated content and want to switch to HTTPS that's where your issues are going to be. Mixed content warnings errrrrywhere.

I drew a line in the sand and manually forced all images to be served over HTTPS or break, which fixed the issue but caused a small outcry. Still, better safe than unsafe. :yeshrug Thankfully Imgur, Giphy, et al all support HTTPS too.

50 g of sugar is pretty ambitious given the state of food insecurity in the U.S. and the low information consumer. I don't hit 60 g per day every day but it's not an impossible event either and I'm way too involved in my nutritional intake (especially with how much about it I don't know and how much I want to fulfill being #borntodie).
