    3D World is incredible and 3D Land is bland and bad and remains uninteresting to the very end

    It should've been a warning sign when people said "it gets good after you beat Bowser," because a game taking so long to get good is never a good thing

    And then after you beat Bowser it still sucks, it is one of the worst Mario games I've played and I don't understand the praise for it other than it was novel having a 3D Mario on a handheld in 2011

    I thought both of them were really good!

    I lent 3D World to a friend and his boyfriend and then they broke up and the boyfriend took all the gaming stuff, including my game. :(

    I hope they do a re-release on the Switch, 3D world was perfect for co-op.

    Hey everyone, have an amazing thing from Splatoon 2.

  • WybornWyborn GET EQUIPPED Registered User regular
    3D Land and 3D World were such good games. I'd do a lot in exchange for another full-blown co-op 3D Mario, though; I think our conquest of Champion's Road is literally the most fun SilverWind and I ever had with our Wii U.

    Speaking of Splatoon:



    My first instinct is "oh hey action" but the more I think about it, Comedy infuses giant swathes of my life and I'm having trouble picking out what side I want to come down on

    Action, I guess

    There's not many comedies I dig really

  • WybornWyborn GET EQUIPPED Registered User regular
    All my favorite cartoons nowadays are comedies, and that ain't nothing, and generally I watch more things to laugh than I do to get my adrenaline pumping. If it were just baout movies it would be one thing, but...

    i do love a good chuckle more than a good punch but I feel like any random action film is probably more likely to have the cut of its jib please me than any random comedy

    Yeah I feel like there's good comedy in action movies but there haven't been too many specifically comedy genre movies lately that I thought were great.

    Television comedy on the other hand, has been pretty good lately

    Then the question comes up, what is a comedy game vs. what is an action game. Is Mario a comedy? Is Zelda an action? What the fuck is Fire Emblem.

    Paper Mario is comedy, so we've got that going for us in terms of clarity.

    Just compare them all to the funniest comedies of the decade, The Martian and Get Out

    All the LPs I consume are definitely comedy and by God do I watch a lot of those

    I probably prefer comedy overall, but the little artwork of Action Movie Squid might convince me to join that team.

    mario is a platformer and zelda is an action-adventure and fire emblem is a tactical role-playing game

    There are quite a few ways to make this judgement but i think i'll go with Action because i can watch a bad action movie no problem but a bad comedy is actually painful

  • WybornWyborn GET EQUIPPED Registered User regular
    If this was about movies I would agree, but this is abotu the concepts of action and comedy. And in that case, it... might be comedy for me? Lord.

    Fire Emblem is one game series I've never really gotten into.

    Fire Emblem is one game series I've never really gotten into.

    maybe give the upcoming one for the Switch a try? or at least Awakening on the 3DS if you like turn based strategy at all

    Fire Emblem is a dating sim.

    Oh and I guess you kill a dragon to save the world in them too.

    what if they made a zelda game where instead of hitting moblins with a sword you have to tell a funny joke into a microphone so that the moblins laugh themselves to death or otherwise are too preoccupied with laughing to continue being a threat to you

    Talking about the broad concepts of action and comedy I literally cannot choose because action is quite often a critical component of comedy.

    (Therefore the definitive correct answer is Jackie Chan)

    The increased difficulty and complexity of Shovel Knight bosses for the Specter of Torment campaign is good! It's a good change

    Getting the "No Damage" feat, though, is now really, really hard. Just, God. I haven't even gotten Black Knight's patterns down enough to handle him with confidence.

    Fire Emblem is a dating sim.

    Like... 2 of them could be considered to have the dating sim elements

    I’d say tactical games with visual novel elements? You have virtually no influence over the story in most of them

    I've been playing Golf Story and it's mostly charming + good, but it desperately needs the ability to quit out of a challenge

    Like, it's now mathematically impossible to succeed at this challenge because I fucked a hole up pretty bad, maybe let me quit now instead of closing down the whole game and reloading

    I wish I could go back and play 999 and Virtues Last Reward for the first time again

    Never finished the 3rd one because I had to get rid of my vita. They should put them on Switch
