Gaming General Rant Thread of General Gaming Rantiness

Recommended Posts

So, I wanted to rant about a frog. But I couldn't find a thread for video game ranting. there's the rant thread in Trainer's Journal, but TJ is generally supposed to be about life, and even though I'm sure a game rant would be perfectly fine there, it still felt like a good idea to separate them. Feel free to just rant about whatever game thing is frustrating you here ^^

So without further adieu, the frog rant:

OH MY GOD STUPID FROG STOP MURDERING ME. IT'S A REALLY LONG WALK BACK HERE. I JUST WANT TO MURDER COWS REPEATEDLY SO I CAN GET SOME LEVELS AND BE DONE WITH THIS QUEST. YOU'RE NOT EVEN THAT CLOSE, THERE'S REALLY NO NEED TO JUST RANDOMLY GO AGGRO ON ME. FML

I liked the Fossil fighters series but I found the 3rd game was underwhelming and the worst out the 3 games. They overhauled the battle system unnecessarily and convert it to one dino is player-controlled. Before, you could control 3 dinos and the ranged system was very interesting in the second game. Opened new strategies and options what to choose. And they removed evolvers which was in the second game and bombed aquatic dinos to extinction which severely limits the variety.

Too bad this thread wasn't a thing back in August.

I would've most likely made a whole essay describing how much I hated Pokemon Insurgence's mach bike puzzle.

Edit: this was before suzerain made it easier, btw.

Here's a screenshot of it: https://gyazo.com/0c8a7398ce9a3dbe2aabb97d70e0fc4a

The cracked floors collapse if you don't go over them fast enough, and the bike is difficult to handle.

Falling through the floor, or going over the edge sends you down to the lower floor.

Yes, but that one didn't require you to press directions in very quick succession, it only required you to hold down a button and time your turns correctly. You only had to turn 2-3 times on each floor. At most.

Seriously, look at that screenshot again. All those quick turns you have to take. Not only that, but because it is an rpg maker game, it is prone to lagging! Very few people would ever have gotten Rayquaza in the original RSE if that was what was standing between the player and Rayquaza.

Have some soothing music Kosher

Anyways, I don't like heights.

I don't like heights in video games either.

Now they have heights where the platforms are invisible. bringing out the ghost to make them semi-visible with its echolocation-like scan is annoying as hell and goes away when you jump so you might land on the platform or you may have misjudged it and fall to your death.

Luckily, it took me two tries to do the timed run across em. It took Godot over half an hour.

Yes, clearly repeatedly basic attacking as a Mage to steal a kill from the basic attacker is me stealing the kill and not you failing to land a basic... despite me rooting them

And yes, my minions last hitting the enemy assassin while I'm over trying to kill their mage is a KS, but I have zero control over my babbies so IDFK what you want me to do. I'm sorry that I outdamage you so much that my minions who have flat damage can steal a kill from all your scaling abilities and basics attacks

I stole one kill from you early game, not even intentionally, I just attacked him because he ran at me and he died. That doesn't mean you have to spend the rest of the game claiming that every kill I get is stolen from you

I don't even feel bad that I didn't ult the low health Hun Batz you were fighting until after you died, you would have said I was killstealing anyways

Dear Risk of Rain, you're really making it hard for me to like you today. I do know that your Artifacts are optional, supposed to be challenges. I know that I don't have to use the artifact that gives you 500% damage but 10% health, or the one that makes all enemies, including bosses, elites. But Jesus fucking Christ, stop making my first stage boss the Overloading Magma Worm. Y'know, that one boss that is literally impossible with some classes, unless the RNG fucks you and gives you nothing but movement speed upgrades? That one? Roguelikes are known for difficulty, but FAIR cruelty. Ty.

Dear Apex Rajang.

I hate you. I hate you so much. I will hunt you forever. When you die, my laughter will be so bright, it will be the last thing you hear, see, smell and feel.

Sincerely, the latest victim of your stupidly difficult to avoid Blanka ball, as well as the rest of your BS.

Dear Overwatch and TF fans, you have bad taste in shooters.

But Overwatch is fun though D:

Never played TF at all. Overwatch is my go-to shooter for having fun for a while. It's got a bunch of balance problems in it's current state, at least in my opinion, so I don't take it very seriously. It's still really fun to play casually though. If I want something more serious, CSGO's where I go.
