Plenty of games handle this differently. They’ll let you style on early enemies before the enemies buff, or they Metroid you and reduce your power after the intro, whatever. I don’t think they should have done this here, just that it was weird that guys in hoodies take a lot of hits for Spidey to KO. Again I don’t care, it was a fleeting observation about the first hours in what’s shaping up to be a long and enjoyable game. I don’t know why people are sensitive to a critical observation about a game. It’s weird. The pigeon stuff is great because it’s mechanically fun and awesome but thematically ridiculous and dumb, and the game leans into both of those really well. A lot of the side quests are like that which is great. JJJ calling you out for swinging through smog is just aces.

Again, you fuckers are so goddamned sensitive, Jesus Christ. I can’t make a casually critical observation about a game I really enjoy that I’ll log a few dozen hours in without the implication that I don’t actually like something I obviously like.

The combat at the start is a little weird. Before stuff gets real, you’re fighting normal ass goons. I know a game has gotta be a game, but it’s thematically bizarre for Spidey to have to punch scrubs 7 times before they eat it. Maybe it’s different on the lower difficulty levels.

Taco Bell voted best Mexican restaurant in the US

But Trump tower has the best taco bowls. -
I enjoy the premise that if Spider-Man doesn't take photos of specific cars and send them to the EPA, people could die any minute now.

The Official Thread of Systemic Racism
Kal-El814 replied to SuperSpreader's topic in The Political Re-Education Camp
Retail? Fucking adorable. So cute that you think your day job lets you relate to people who literally could die at any moment to protect you. Like you could understand the bonds of brotherhood forged in the fire of these fucking streets. Or you know. Whatever mentality lets someone think it’s okay to post bail for someone who, at best, committed manslaughter. And what Wade said. -
I have seen it happen once or twice. Most times though... he Batmans the shit out of them.

The traversal really is fun. They do a nice job of balancing making it easy but giving you moves or tricks to make it more engaging.

Okay so this is really dumb... but when Peter wears a suit jacket in this game, it's cut wrong. The right flap closes over the left one, which is not the way mens suits are tailored. Fuck this game, no stars.

The game has crashed on me twice, but other than that it's really quite enjoyable.

Yeah but their fantasy game is on fucking point. -
Nintendo Civ 6 coming to Switch Nov. 16
Kal-El814 replied to JosephManderley's topic in The Spawn Point
They’re fine. They take a little getting used to but they work. It’s been a while since I’ve played it but the iOS verion has some of those focus issues as well. -
General Gaming What are you playing today?
Kal-El814 replied to CastlevaniaNut18's topic in The Spawn Point
That game goes places. Enjoy. Fired up Zero Horizon. Haven’t gotten to the Proving yet, but so far, so good. -
Nintendo Civ 6 coming to Switch Nov. 16
Kal-El814 replied to JosephManderley's topic in The Spawn Point
The iOS version of Civ VI is solid, I assume it’ll be similar to that. It can get a little slow on big maps with lots of Civs especially if you’re used to playing it on a fast PC, but it’s absolutely playable. -
It’s really good. The show has changed a lot over the years, the contrast to the early seasons is pretty stark. It’s much less of a riff on Johnny Quest and a monument to failure as it is a buddy / hangout show that’s inspired by those themes. Season 6 and ESPECIALLY season 7 has some really deep callbacks, shit from the second episode is being called out in meaningful ways.

I think all Bonds have been cheesy to some extent. Goldeneye is the most grounded of the Brosnan flicks but he still stops a tank so he can adjust his tie. Someone should be executed for his “I thought Christmas only came once a year,” and “talk about an edifice complex” lines. That being said I should watch Goldeneye again. Every time I go into it, I forget that a decent chunk of the movie looks like the budget was the equivalent of 3 meatball subs, some of the shit looks ROUGH.
