| Topic | I'm enjoying Origami King, but like... Fuck this timer shit in battles. |
| Timohtep 07/24/20 2:23:43 AM #7 | Smackems posted... Do you have to get the ring 100% right or can you get it half right and still do some damage? This is what you're forced to do when you give up and don't want to pay the money to continue solving the turn. It's still the player conceding that he cannot solve the puzzle, and just accepting that the game's going to beat the shit out of you for it unless you pay up. --- |

| Timohtep 07/24/20 2:05:49 AM #3 | BakonBitz posted... Yeah, I don't like the timer either. It feels bad when you're forced to just give up because you can't solve it in time. I kinda suck at puzzles so the battles are starting to get frustrating. It feels like the game is extorting me by using my pride as leverage. "Oh Tim, you can't solve the puzzle in 40 seconds? Tough shit. Cough up the cash if you want to keep trying or just admit defeat and then we beat the shit out of you" It doesn't help that the "time up" sequence basically just rubs in your face that you couldn't figure it out. --- |

| Timohtep 07/24/20 1:33:45 AM #1 | The battle system... Ugh. I like all of it except for this fucking timer. Failing turns is the most frustrated a game has ever made me feel tbh. If you can't figure out a turn, you can either dump tons of money into the battle to give yourself more time, or... you admit defeat on that turn. It is the worst feeling battle system to mess up on that I have ever played and I fucking hate this part of it. It's a goddamn shame because every single other part of the game I'm enjoying, including all other aspects of the battles so far. I like puzzles, but who the fuck thought a timer like this was a good idea. It is absolutely atrocious. And yes, I'm kinda fuckin pissed off about it. Yes, I know, "get over it" and shit. I'm aware. But I have never ever in my life been made to feel so frustrated by any failure in a game. It's so so stupid, and I'm gonna complain about it if I want. --- |

It's really more of a proof that the run works as a whole, rather than a true TAS. It's crazy and I'm very very excited. --- |

| Timohtep 07/23/20 3:56:54 PM #1 | https://www.twitch.tv/zfg1 Uses tricks that basically allow you to literally fly and warp anywhere you want. It's ridiculously fucking cool. He's premiering a low-optimization TAS, done by hand over the course of a few days, as a demonstration of what the route is currently. Come watch. It's fucking wild. --- |

| Topic | In ear headphones are a joke |
| Timohtep 07/21/20 9:32:16 PM #18 | PrettyBoyMarth posted... In-ear are more comfortable especially the ones that just sit in your ear, feels like you aren't even wearing anything on your head. Headphones are heavy, umcomfortable, your face/ear gets hot/sweaty, you adjust them frequently because they hurt when in one position for just a short amount of time. How is having something fill out the inside of your ear canal comfortable at all It makes me want to die I hate having things like that in my ears so much Bone conduction earphones >>>>>> Imo of course --- |
| Topic | So yeah. I'm still loving Paper Mario: Origami King |
| Timohtep 07/21/20 9:17:05 PM #10 | I'm enjoying it a lot so far. My opinions are reinforced though: Game is good. Nintendo's attitude about the series and the handling of the Mario IP in that context is really really fucking awful. So it's almost impossible so far not to think about how much better this game would be if they were allowed to have unique characters. But yeah. Game is still quite good. Could be a masterpiece if they had complete creative freedom and the battle system wasn't as cumbersome. Then again I'm still not very far. But those are my thoughts --- |

| Timohtep 07/21/20 9:04:42 PM #8 | Bone conduction earphones >>>>> any other kind imo At least when it comes to listening to stuff in public. On a PC or workstation, over-ear all the way. In ear headphones are garbo --- |

| Timohtep 07/21/20 2:10:02 PM #11 | I usually have an idea of what I want, I do a quick review of the menu when I pull up (takes maybe 15 seconds) then I order. So I almost always am ready. The GF on the other hand ._. --- |

| Timohtep 07/20/20 6:39:46 PM #7 | The quantity of online levels is absurd. I say just swallow your pride and get online because it's worth it to play the ridiculous amount of custom user levels. The campaign is substantial enough to be fun but not to stand on its own. The online experience is the real meat. Good game, but I'm biased as hell lmao --- |

| Timohtep 07/19/20 6:04:29 PM #30 | The only one that isn't god awful is the PS4. I don't understand how anyone ever found the shape of the older ones comfortable at all, especially considering thumbstick placement. --- |
