@brawlman Oh yeah that's awesome.
I think I just spread myself too thin with fighting games. Play a little bit of everything, but am trash at all of em, which sucks because I love them soooo much.

@brawlman I love myself some Street Fighter.
I wish I could get into KoF. I love the characters, setting, and overall tone of the series, but then I try to play it and my brain turns to mush.

Whatever helps you get by dude.
Reported.

@bigdude1 You can talk to me whenever you want, lil dude. Personally I would just prefer if the posts you direct at me weren't so laden with misinformation, logical fallacies, and straight up lies to push this really strange narrative you've built up in your head.

So talk more about the game, and less about how in your feelings you are over my opinion of the game, please.

@bigdude1 Holy shit dude. I don't fucking care.
You told me to talk about the game. Ive been doing that. I gave you my specific complaint about the game, as per your request, and you go straight back to the gas lighting.

Grow up.

@bigdude1 I've been saying stuff about the game dude. Whether you like what I have to say about it doesn't really concern me, and you should really stop taking my opinion of the game to heart. I don't like the game not the people who play it.

As for your opinion on Hollow Knight, I don't really care. I think it is one of the best games released in the past decade, by far the best Metroidvania released in that same span, and find the content/quality to price ratio to be phenomenal.

But if you're just really starved for my specific gripes:
I think the game is a little too linear and hand-holdy.
EMMI encounters are pretty fucking lame and mostly serve to pad out the game with chase sequences that are more annoying than suspenseful.
I think the bosses range from decent to straight up bad. Kraid's first phase is downright embarrassing.
I think the story's over reliance on a certain character in Metroid lore to push the events of the game is lazy storytelling.

Is that enough, or do I have some sort of quota I'm supposed to meet in order for you to think my opinion is valid?

@bigdude1 Unless I am completely misunderstanding your post, it seems like you're implying I haven't played the game. I have.
Whatever opinion you have of how I feel about the game after that is completely irrelevant.

If you'd like to discuss the game, fine, but attempting to gaslight me about games I have played is hilarious, and a little sad.

The game is just okay, and I think it is massively overpriced. The end. If you don't agree, I don't care. Please try to move on.

Lol what the fuck is going on with dudes in these forums having existential crisis over me not liking videogames?

Like I'm being gaslit over fucking Metroid.
Fucking LMAO

@bigdude1 Like I said, whatever helps you cope. I've played it, but keep on pushing your narrative. Maybe one day it will come true!

@bigdude1 Not sure what gives you that idea other than some whiny babies throwing a fit over me not liking a game, but whatever helps get you through the day my dude.

Honestly feels like Ubisoft have been going out of their way to shit on the Tom Clancy name lately.

@bigdude1 I don't think they were bad, but 2018 does evolve Kratos as a character quite a bit.
Like when I was younger I thought Kratos was a total badass, killing innocent people just because they get in his way and having sex with concubines in minigames.
Now he's achieved his revenge, realized how hollow it was, and is attempting to keep his son from becoming the monster he used to be. Much more appealing to adult/father me.

@bigdude1 Personally I'd say Hollow is a phenomenal 15 dollar game and Dread is an okay 30-40 dollar game.

@neocweeny If you can't save up at least two hundred dollars a paycheck, are you even really a gamer?

@brawlman What fighting games are you interested in?

Whatever helps you keep up that little narrative you've built up in your head, champ.

Try to keep the discussion Metroid Dread related, will you?
:)

@sheria Oh I just thought what you said was a bit of an overreaction and very hyperbolic. Almost seemed facetious, even!

Oh, did you think I meant the price? I mean, that goes without saying that the game is massively overpriced for what is on offer, but this is Nintendo we're talking about and I just assumed everybody was already blatantly aware of their incredibly anti-consumer practices.

@sheria I don't know dude you're the one who said it.

@sheria I mean, that seems like a bit much, but maybe you should

Alternatively if you want to play the logical evolution Diablo 2 without having to pay money, check out Path of Exile.
