I need to actually watch this show sometime
 
So I recently sat down to play Shovel Knight. Wanted to play it when it came out, but didn't have the coin.

And it's pretty good so far. Beat 4 bosses.

I will say, Specter Knight's level was kind of bullshit.
 
We should probably wait for the studio Shuka to clean the show up a bit first.

I really enjoyed it, but Shuka certainly isn't studio bones, or even studio Pierrot.

Well, I'm pretty certain by the time there's space in Toonami the Blu-rays will be out and it'll be cleaned up anyway.

I do preloads often if the game is gigantic or I think it could crash the servers. Sun/Moon is a good example of the second, Xenoblade of the first.

I've only done preloads on Steam in the past, and don't do them anymore, because Steam can download a 20gig+ game in less than an hour
 
Only games I've ever preloaded are Blizzard games and Skyrim Remastered. My internet isn't great so I'm mainly still physical only on consoles. A 40gb game would probably take me close to a day to download.
 
Some bosses in Shovel Knight feel like a DPS race. Their patterns are too irregular to really pick up on, and I feel like if this was a classic Megaman game, I'd be dying to them a lot more. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it does mean that Shovel Knight doesn't require as much of the average player as the games it's influenced by.

I don't agree with that at all since people have beaten SK without power ups like they have MM. Heck I'd argue most SK bosses are easier then most MM bosses with no power ups since SK can attack from above with his pogo attack. When you add in power ups the bosses if SK become a complete joke like MMX bosses with their weaknesses. Between the chalices and the phase relic the only bosses you should have any issue with in SK is the first form of the final boss.

I had issues with Shovel Knight's bosses, but that's because I hadn't played platformers in forever and I didn't play much before I was distracted by real life things. I should give it another shot, it was still a fun game

For what it's worth, I could see the patterns the bosses had, even if I was shit at dodging them

if I remember right, they got banned since they started reusing urls, and old posts suddenly had a lot of porn in them

So, um, how you all dealing with our new world?
I see a news post on Facebook about how someone put a goddamn Nazi Flag up on top of their house after Trump's victory, then someone posting those damn "message images" (because god forbid you actually type your message out) about how people are hypocrites that're "spreading hate" & "degrading people" because they're not happy about Trump being president.

....this is flat-out the first time politics has actually gotten to me (granted, this would've only been the 2nd time I could vote), & man is it depressing....
 
Shit just keeps getting more fucked.

Omarosa, who is Trump's director of African-American outreach had some really chilling words of encouragement for everyone.

"“Every critic, every detractor, will have to bow down to President Trump. It’s everyone who’s ever doubted Donald, who ever disagreed, who ever challenged him. It is the ultimate revenge to become the most powerful man in the universe.”

Also, I hope you're also fans of Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, and Rudy Giuliani because they're all people Trump wants to give cabinet positions.

And Trump also has an "Enemies List".

People seriously thought it was stupid that the comics thought it was plausible for Lex Luthor to become President. Hah.

That is the kind of thing that got Nixon impeached.

At the very least, just one more day until Toonami. Jojo will continue to be awesome, we're finally starting the next arc in HxH that many have said to be the start of when things get "real", Gohan is going super duper saiyan & puts us one episode closer to finally defeating Cell, we're watching everyone fight Oars in OP (well aside from Luffy), & IBO appears to slowly be getting better again.

If I may be serious again, I really do appreciate how open & respectful everyone here is when it comes to voicing opinions. This is the only place I feel safe talking about the recent political stuff going on, considering I usually would stay away from the topic because I always felt it was just a landmine that would set people off & result in arguments that lead nowhere, which results in everyone just feeling more negative & why I never got into them in the first place.
