The bulk of Terraria's fanbase is what went wrong, it's basically the perfect storm of autism. I love this game to death, but it's the kind of game normal players only bother with when a new patch comes out. Then you start a new character, have a blast seeing the new shit, and then move on to another game.

Problem is the building elements and ridiculously low system requirements, combined with a very low and frequently available sale price attract the absolute worst kind of abnormal players. There shouldn't be 20k people playing Terraria on a Monday morning when there hasn't been a content patch in a long time.

This is basically the reason Otherworld is most likely vaporware and Terraria 2 will never come out. The normal people like the Terraria fans on /v/ would forgive a mediocre release, but the bulk of Terraria's fanbase would turn on the developers in a heartbeat if the release wasn't perfect.

Holy shit that's a post that reeks of anxiety if I've ever seen one.
Why do you care so much in a single player game about the "community" and what other people are doing?

You managed to beat 1/4 of the most borong RE campaign ever made, congratulations

TheGamingBrit likes it.

Bastion didn't really do anything for me. The presentation is top class but the game itself felt a bit dull. I really enjoy Transistor though. It had both stellar presentation and interesting mechanics.

That's one of my reasons. The pick 2 weapon system with such an insane variety does mean you can try a lot of different combos which is neat. But what each weapon does is fairly simple compared to everything else they've done. It's usually 1-2 types of basic attacks and some of the abilities you use those black tonics for were weapon specific. Enemies were also fairly simple, I think most of them only had one attack.

Also a lot of action games will be given shit if they have a block or dodge that's too safe. Bastion has both.
>Dodge is a get of a jail free card with a shitload of i-frames
>Block can just be held down and fucking work
>On top of that you can block precisely to deflect shit as well

The ending is probably the only part of the game that's still unquestionably stronger than the other Supergiant games. But even then I have my issues with it.
If you don't take Zulf the game legitimately goes down an entire point (at least) if you were to give it a number out of 10. Carrying Zulf and realizing that the Ura have stopped attacking you and are just watching is unlike any other video game experience. And if you don't take Zulf you just get a final fight. That's it.

When we have Supergiant threads without fail somebody is told they need to replay Bastion and pick the other ending to really appreciate the game and that they effectively picked wrong. And it's true. But that's really the fault of the game and not the guy who left Zulf

The narrator is what turns Bastion from an average game to a good game.
Transistor is really cool but too short
Transistor > Bastion

No, I'm not interested, mr. Shillington. Fuck off.

I dont even know what it is, so I dunno if Im interested. I will say the almost instantaneous Switch begging is hilarious.

I hate teasers

I fucking love this game so much but don't like digimon in general.
Stop comparing it pokemon the both have their strong points.

Agreed it's not like SMT ever gets compared to pokemon as much as digimon does.
>digimon just lacks mainstream appeal and targets a niche audience.

>>387135538
I know you're right, even with how little I know of how the game actually works, I KNOW you're right because it's so easy to compete with Game Freak.

Hey, you try keeping something fresh and fun for 13 years. I think they're doing a great job, but the problem doesn't lie in WoW, it lies in us and MMO's in general.

MMO's are a dead genre, they've been overused, beaten, dragged through the mud, and birthed into a billion different variations and we are just sick of it.

I commend blizzard for keeping their game as good as it was for as long as they did. But its time for the MMO genre to take a nice long nap.

>>387135437
I agree. I tried WoW again when Legion came out (I had a 30-40 warrior during BC, but couldn't keep playing).
I started with an Arcane Mage, didn't like the class too much, tried Ice, felt like I was throwing snow balls (that fucking sound design is atrocious), so I settled on Fire Mage (I really wanted the teleport and language stuff, love that kind of out of combat personality).
I stopped at around 80 because it was too fucking boring. I was outleveling everything and one shotting everyone, I couldn't finish questing in a zone because the quests quickly gave shit xp, and everything was a mess. I recall a zone that switched from Vanilla storyline to Cataclysm mid quest chain, which was confusing as fuck, I felt like I was jumping through time every time I took a step, and the dungeons were absurdly shit. Even worse than early FF XIV dungeons.

I didn't want to just use my free 100 coupon because it felt like I was basically saying "yeah the first 100 levels are shit but surely it can't be bad after that".

I would like to a singleplayer series of Warcraft that isnt the RTS games, something like Elder Scrolls where you can mince around in the world and explore it intimately. Its sad that that neat universe is wasted on fucking MMO trash.

You cant keep people interested in it forever, if anything its surprising its lasted this long and is still relatively populated. Sadly, this is where the game has to end, whenever WoW finally dies off, they cant make another game because it would invalidate their cashcow, so no WoW2, and they cant make a spinoff game because all the story and plot happens in WoW. So until WoW is finally gone there will be nothing else related to that universe, but at that point, will anyone even be interested?

Playing Yoshi's Island with my mother when I was young, playing the original Witcher game for a week straight in obsession, staying up all night playing Dota 2 with my mates when the game first released, the works.

my long-term memory is shit unless something jogs it but I'd probably say playing Star Fox 64 as a kid. I also put a lot of time into Toy Story 2 for PSX

Is this real or a fan edit? Why is the UI just extended with dead space rather tan moving the bigger parts to the outer edges of the screen?

Would people with 1000s of hours throw a shit fit because their muscle memory is based on the original UI?
