i gotta say fartgang, you write some of my favorite reviews on this site

futo is a footnote. the fact that you were able to stumble through it is a red herring at best


put simply - you wouldn't have completed the game with that outlook. sure, you could hypothetically bang your head into every wall and eventually, maybe finish it. but doesn't it make you feel like you're the one who isn't as clever as they think? do you solve rubik's cubes by blindly shuffling them without thought until they eventually, inevitably come together?

is it the fault of a puzzle that you're able to brute force it in a way that doesn't prepare you aptly for future problems to solve?

classic fucking marathon !!!!!!

as for why sonic appeals so widely: blue is a calming color and animals are easy to empathize with. that's the most baseline explanation someone could give

@mikli sonic was trying to be the counter culture from day 1 - in the states anyway. adventure was the first instance where the japanese and american takes on the series were conflated into one and it all just stayed that way afterward

some confusing stuff here. the terminals always tell you if you need to return back to them, there is not a single instance where you are required to grenade jump (besides a secret in the third level) and there's music throughout the game (2 and infinity don't have music though)

i found the map design pretty intuitive - much more so than most doom levels - but to each their own there

cooking mama does not mine cryptocurrency that was an extremely obvious hoax

ditto "what is the darkness doing here"

@gingerv aye. i get what you mean now. my bad

bout time chaos legion has some people playing it that actually know how it works and aren't just eager to post videos of people performing fucking horribly as an argument for how poorly it's apparently designed

thank god. now you and your group needs to hop on breakdown
