Chill variety streamer w/smooth commentary. Let's play and talk about games - and not sweat the small stuff.

I'm a long-time streamer (since 2008) known for playing a variety of games, having a chill and respectful atmosphere, and a methodical & insightful approach to the games I play. My streams feature lots of discussion on game systems and game dev overall.

I've been playing games of all sorts for well over 30 years, starting with the Commodore 64 and Vic-20. Combined with over 10 years of experience in the game industry, I tend to have insights that other streamers might not have & I tend to not be so harshly critical of games.

What Games Do I Play? Primarily retro action games - rogue-lites, shmups, metroidvanias, etc. Lots of indies in particular. I had a long stint with the Dark Souls games, too! I've played over 200 games on stream in the past 10 years.

    I thought about it - I generally have a pretty strict rule in multiplayer games about not automating anything during PvP (especially on the same PC where the game runs). Though I would have used a turbo controller if I had one - even for no other reason than to save my thumb. Steam probably supports that with their controller configuration. I think I'd rather they just fix that bug and give a slight buff to the talisman.

    I only have a vague guess for what's causing it. The cyclops is a physics object that can be banged around by creatures/terrain and I bet the carry-all's placement preview also has physics enabled. So the attempt to snap the carry-all to the floor of the cyclops interior is also just causing it to bang against the cyclops (and I guess depending on how you move / where you try to place the carry-all, you could bang the cyclops hard enough to tip it over and club the player in the process).

    I had gotten so used to ignoring bad player-written messages that I hadn't even noticed the developer messages stating where each gate went.

    I played the snes R-types back when i was younger. And now i bought this game and i like it. The dlc is on sale for this game. Are those packs worth it? And whats your favourite pack?

  • @JerpDoesGames
    @JerpDoesGames8 ай бұрын

    Much of the DLC seems to be "greatest hits" style tributes to each game, so you might want to see which of the older games appeal to you most and try those first. I'm partial to R-Type Final 1, so it might very well be Set 3 (in particular, Stage X5.0: Distorted Ecosystem, a tribute to the Twisted Ecology stage from the original game). Overall the stages seem to be a mix of solid tribute and refinement to the original stages. I have some minor gripes with the stages (such as X3.0 having better music in the original or X5.0 having a better boss in the original), but they otherwise are very well made. Also, the bosses for X2.0 and X6.0 are absurdly hard, though still well-made. I haven't tried the later DLC but everything I've seen so far seems to be pretty high quality stuff. I'll probably make a sweep back around to all of it later on after some work/life stuff settles down and I've finished some of the more recent games I've been diving into. I will say, I'm a bit bummed about how "R-Type Final 3" (sort of a deluxe upgraded version of 2 with at least 7 extra stages) has been split out and made PS5-exclusive. I think it's likely a timed exclusive and I hope Granzella is making a heap of extra cash from the deal, but it sucks to be missing out and that somewhat dampened my enthusiasm.

    @@JerpDoesGames I totally agree. And for balance in general, I think all gear and spell requirements need to be raised through the roof. Sick of people saying mages are op just because I guy does (guts sword crouch poke > giants hunt > swift pebble) and it kills them. Like, that's not a MAGE, he could've just used fan daggers which are better tbh, and you got your soft cap HP with both health talismans nearly two shotted, by a giant sword that pokes as fast as a spear and has so much hyper armor that it turns every hit into a trade, leaving you with no attack window, but it's the finisher that's broken?

From seeing how mega man 11 did so well and the dead space remake did so well than the callisto protocol and left 4 dead 2 still does really well for being an old Zombie game that is still better than back 4 blood that ends up getting abandoned to be left 4 dead for good lol! which I just wonder what will be the next Spiritual successor game that will failed hmmmmmmm. 🤔
