What are you thinking about right now?

I'm thinking about how much I hate the Battle Maison in Pokémon X because that place is fucking awful.


You gotta give them credit, at least it's on par with the rest of that game.

Alternatively you could have actually responded to me

PS: For future reference I have anger management problems, I am terribly sorry and so on if I happen to explode in people's faces. Usually I tend to edit it before I post but being at work I just fired something off on break.

EDIT: After going back and reading my post I'd like to mention that I wasn't even being that unreasonable, so I don't know why you're suddenly on about perception of reality unless you just don't have a counter argument.

@Arandomgamemaker: I think my biggest issue with the first game is that over time I've gotten really bored with the levels. Gobi's Valley is where it starts getting pretty okay but honestly I only really enjoy the levels after that because I've played them less.

welp Hero's Realm is broken

Hero's Realm speedrun confirmed

What is it about Sonic '06 that fans like about it? The game doesn't even LOOK good.

Don't mind me, I'm just Sonic's number 1 hater.

Always and forever <3

Pixel Quilt: Logo Edition!

I'm glad you guys notices since I didn't want to be the one to point it out.

I have a few moments so let me explain better

It's story/gameplay integration. This is a good thing when done well and it is im BT. Banjo (as I said before) is the standard platforming character, he doesn't have too many unique abilities until later on. He relies on Kazooie to help him because he's dumb, which you pointed out. Thus is why most abilities are Kazooie centric, because she's the smart one, and for the sake of RPG terms is your equipmemt/weapon in the game. Duh, without her Banjo would be fucked, ergo why the game is so well made.

Made sense to me but idk maybe I'm just bad at game making or something

Writing-wise, Banjo's a lazy, carebear pushover who's incompetence would likely get him killed if it wasn't for Kazooie's sharp wit keeping him in line.


Hello and welcome to THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT OF THE WRITING

Yes, let's just fucking annihilate a great game cause you think you've some how figured out how to design it better than some of the greatest devs in fucking history at their prime

If I wasn't on a phone I'd write an essay about how hideously wrong you are but I'll have to wait until my eyes are no longer on fire

What is it about Sonic '06 that fans like about it? The game doesn't even LOOK good.

Because Sonic fans are known to be extremely brain damaged in the best of cases.

@Corfaisus: He's actually really versatile when you split up if you know how to use him well. He can double jump with the pack attack ability, which gives him a surprising amount of mobility, and can self heal/walk & breath underwater. I think that overall they're both pretty balanced, gameplay and writing wise. It's a good match up.

When combined Kazooie comprises all of the abilities because of the fact that Banjo is there mainly for the basic movement controls.

Banjo-Tooie confirmed for best 3D platformer of all time.
For me, that honor goes to Psychonauts. I love that game to death.

Though both of the original Banjos are pretty legit, of course.


As long as you don't think it's Mario 64 it's fine with me. Speaking of which, I bought that game on Steam ages ago. Gotta install it soon and see what the hubbub is about.

@Arandomgamemaker: Man, I think you're in for a good time. I actually consider TTC a pretty bland world myself, compared to the rest of them. My favourite is Rusty Bucket Bay.
