| Topic | I gave up on Metroid Dread |
| BakonBitz 11/05/21 11:53:36 PM #12 | Questionmarktarius posted... It stopped being fun for me when I realized I as just being railroaded, Fusion-style, towards the next boss. Those "now my next form!" bosses were annoying, but not the dealbreaker.Yeah, I would've preferred the Super Metroid approach myself. I can appreciate how they were able to make a linear path through a maze, but I prefer manually backtracking and finding the path forward through the new options given to me. It feels more rewarding that way. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |

I feel like Nintendo didn't spring up enough of a budget to get a better-sounding soundtrack. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |

| BakonBitz 11/05/21 11:42:02 PM #7 | Stalolin posted... People might tell me to git gud when I say this but I feel like it was a lot more trial and error than I would have liked. A lot of games are trial and error, and that excuse is used a lot, but I think maybe because its 2D or something and touching enemies hurts you, it feels like you couldnt conceivably best most bosses on the first try. Not that you need to or even should. I dunno, Im expecting to get yelled at a lot here but I was just not having a good time by the end.Nah, Dread is definitely the hardest Metroid I've played, almost every boss in the later half required multiple attempts for me. I just had persistence to get through them, and now that I've fully played the game once things really aren't giving me much trouble now on subsequent playthroughs. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |

You made the right decision, I cant even get past the 30-minute mark.That's not even far enough to get past the first real EMMI, and it's not hard to avoid it at all. Dunno what to tell you man.

| BakonBitz 11/05/21 6:34:09 PM #68 | SuperGamingBros. I can still watch them separately on their channels, but I missed their chemistry together. Their life schedules have gotten too busy to meet up regularly, they were planning on ending the collab channel at the end of last year, but Covid basically just killed the channel early so they've pretty much abandoned it. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |
| Topic | Really hard to go back to the N64 versions of OOT and MM tbh |
| BakonBitz 11/04/21 8:31:37 PM #3 | Solar_Crimson posted... I kind of feel that the 3DS versions butchered the overall dark aesthetics of the games, though. Especially Majora's Mask. I also don't like the changes they made to the first boss, where his chanting no longer matches his new animations.Eh, I think the only time the new graphics comes at a detriment is Ganon in OoT. The threatening atmosphere is kinda ruined when it isn't dimly lit and Ganon is basically a silhouette. Otherwise the games look great. Majora's Mask needlessly changing the bosses and some other mechanics is a problem though. It feels like Grezzo didn't understand the small things that made people like Majora's Mask and assumed the things it did differently were shortcomings. I did like the expanded Bomber's Notebook and the Song of Double Time rework though. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |

The most I've heard is him attending an anti-LGBT church, but I haven't heard anything problematic from him himselfI think he also wore a suspicious shirt at one time, but really he hasn't been really outspoken in anything. He's been fairly reserved, people are assuming the worst from him because he attends that church and doesn't want to switch churches. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |

Not everyone is a great communicator who analyzes every possible outcome of their word choices.I'm convinced those kinds of people are basement dwellers.

| BakonBitz 11/04/21 2:22:25 AM #1 | There's some things that happen in both 2 and 4 that essentially put Woody in the same situation (estranged from his owner, gets tempted to forever be enjoyed by children instead of growing attached to his owner who will grow out of him) and he actually makes the same decision in both movies. It's just with 4 the other toys actually let him go through with it. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |

So now she could potentially have a say in what happens at EVO. I'm not even a simp, I'm just impressed she grew from a streamer into a business woman. Also she expressed support for the #freemvc2 movement so that's always cool. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |

| BakonBitz 10/28/21 6:45:34 PM #5 | The counter timing is extremely precise on EMMIs. Don't worry if you can't seem to get it. My tactic was to try to "guess" the counter timing (when the flash happens) and press counter about the split second before the flash comes up. But even then I couldn't get it consistently and sometimes the timing is random depending on what grab animation comes up. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA |
