It's totally fine.

It'll never die off. Even if they are run into the ground, they will only become skeleton jokes and continue on living.

There is no list because there is no dead best friends jokes.

Yeah but the skeleton jokes are hilarious. Never get old.

When will that joke go the way of the AMERICA! and die off?
Does anyone have a list of dead best friends jokes?

The axe joke died a painful death in the Woolie Hole :3

It's fine. I don't need avatars to recognize my favorite posters, like Marararararigydyne

Mathaou said:
Yup. I haven't been playing MonHun that much because I started playing Dark Souls again (I WILL beat it), MM, and Rogue Legacy.

Playing MM on a handheld is so nice, yet makes the difficulty of the original MM look Dark Souls-ish by design.

This game is too easy if you're familiar with the bosses and the maps.

That's a shame. Favorite series IMO.

I've beaten it so many times already, I'm near speedrun levels. I can beat it in 10 hours 100%.

Avatars are back.
It's easier because Majora's Mask on the N64 was tedious and somewhat poorly designed in some areas. I find the 3DS version to be significantly superior to its N64 counterpart.
Dark Souls' difficulty added to its charm and challenge, whereas MM N64 was just fucking tedious.

The fast-forward mechanic improvement is a godsend.
Click to expand...

That is indeed. Kind of defeats the purpose of the NPCs that allow you to move time when one song can warp you to a specific moment.

I appreciate the changes of the fairy locations. Makes the dungeons a little more challenging.

I also like the changing of the Rupee bank and of the Owl Statues as dedicated saves.

Unrelated, but have you been able to do 421B > IC6B > whiff 2A > 22B with Eltnum? For some reason I can't get the 2A to come out.
Click to expand...
God dammit, I had to write the number pad out on paper to know what input that is, I'll never get use to number pad directions. Ahem... yea I've been able to do that combo with the whiff 2A. I think I press 2A the moment they bounce on the ground, or maybe a little bit later then straight in to the 22B. You have plenty of time to whiff the 2A since they can't recover when they are in the air and you have a bit more time for the 22B when they hit the ground too.(I think)

, right? She still serves a different purpose, namely background story and heart piece. But I'd gladly sacrifice the purpose of maybe an NPC or two for infinitely more control over time. Lessens tedious and unnecessary travel and waiting time for certain side quests and whatnot. The fairy location changes are pretty nice indeed and I also like the change in the dedicated save mechanic.

A lot of people are going to call it a more streamlined game as a negative thing, but having finished it 100% just a couple of days ago, I do believe streamlining was necessary. It's not so much less difficult than Majora's Mask on the N64 as much as it is more efficient and less annoying. Majora's Mask was not particularly difficult, it just required a lot of patience, both in terms of waiting and some of the horrid boss designs.

Combined with the more comfortable control scheme, bosses like Odolwa and Goht are trivial.

It was second nature how easy those bosses were. I hope the fish is difficult. I recall Great Bay being a confusing dungeon.

Learn the notation, though. Also, a few minutes after I asked I figured out why it wouldn't come out. It was a dumb reason. Thanks anyway.

Imagine you're the mouse. Now keep hitting the lever to get food/levelups that make you feel good and like you're accomplishing something. If you hit the lever at the wrong time then you get shocked/die or something. Eventually you'll get enough food and you win the game. Rogue Legacy and it's types of Roguelikelikelikes where you carry over progress usually means you will always win eventually despite your skills. Usually.

It does have a Skinner Box style and to be honest, I started out hating it because of it. Once I got the hang of the controls and started rushing through the game, turning it into a borderline bullet-hell style game as I practically ignored everything around me, I have to admit that I started liking it more. I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with the game, but it ended on a positive note for me regardless. It's the exception to the rule however and it's mostly only because I got out of the skinner box design.

Yeah I know, that's why I said that they at least deserve it. Just don't forget to fondle his balls, guys.

The base gameplay being fun to play helps and yeah, handicapping yourself to make the thing harder is also a pretty good way to have more fun with the kind of game that Rouge Legacy is. Also this is what happens when you edit things in later after I already have quoted and typed out a response.

Maragidyne said:
By the way Skrams, You commented on its skinner box design so I can guess how you're playing the game, but I'll ask just to be sure: How are you playing the game?
Click to expand...

I finished Rogue Legacy a while ago. I would explore and explore to find new equipment and runes. I enjoyed that enough that I would level up and gain enough money to make the game a lot easier than it should be. I spelunkered a lot. I found the last boss sort of hard, but not that bad since I don't remember having that much trouble.

Amen. This is the Majoras Mask of my dreams.

You're Not the first person to say that.

That's how I feel about games like Minecraft or Dota or LoL.

Come on, it's not not that hard to remember the names of those who don't post as often. Git gud, Numbatisa.
I'm just trying to run this joke into the ground, when it wasn't funny to begin with.

Well, I just took a test I probably could've studied for, instead of playing Persona and watching Max get salty. Oh, well. What's done is done, and it definitely could've gone worse.

No idea, must be a problem at Neogaf's servers or something.

Meh. Still love it. Rocking Vampirism armor and vampirism runes, and since I've upgraded my health a shit ton, even as a Paladin I have 350HP left with the deductions. If I'm a miner, I have bomb ass runes for that.
