Ultimate Videogame Topic 3: The Next Generation

[bv310]

Haven't played it, but the setting appeals to me. I'll probably pick it up on either Black Friday or some kind of Holiday PS4 Sale.

So, Destiny-players, what times and days are you free to try Vault of Glass with me? I really want to try some raids now that I'm up to Level 40 (and got my first Exotics! Bought a Shalo Supercell off of Xur, and a Dreg's Promise from the Prison of Elders)

[jmj3000]

I actually am online right now, about to run through some strikes. I'm willing to try to run through vault of glass tonight.

With Audiosurf 2's link to Soundcloud, it's super fun to use the random songs feature and play people's silly stuff made on like Fruity Loops, or video game themes, or 3-second sound effects <3

I got a supercell from an engram, 310 light. I have a new favorite PvP weapon lol

What is your light level? If high enough, why not do the new raid instead of VoG? Unless you are set on doing old content first?

[bv310]

I mostly just want to go through older stuff for gear. My LL right now is 254, so I'm trying to grind for better armor. I also really want to go through the content in order of release, just so I don't end up doing Kingsfall before Crota's End

[Chevre]

This is a weird question, but can people tell me how they

play

Pokemon?

I just feel like I play it with a set of rules that I must follow and I can't ever play it loosely. Like my pokemon have to be in my party in order of level and then if their level is tied, by order of HP, once they level up I shift the order around so it makes sense again, etc. I just feel on the glimpses of LPs and Nuzlockes I've seen people are able to play more freely while I've been playing this way since I got Pokemon Yellow. It frustrates me.

[Sudo_Nym]

I used to try and optimize my party in the old days, so I'd have perfect coverage, to the point that I would always have the same pokemon in my party on every play. I was a weird kid. I got X when I bought a 3DS out of nostalgia, but I gave up halfway through; I forgot how easy the normal game is, and all the cool multiplayer peeps moved on to Omega Red or whatever. I'm probably doing it wrong, too, don't listen to me.

I finally got Prison Architect, and I'm obsessed with blueprinting my entire map for maximum efficiency before I build anything. I'll spend an hour planning out my prison, spend in-game days building it, and then get bored and start over. So I'm probably doing something wrong there, too.

[Papa Zito]

sounds like you're turning a game into a job

[Ythan]

Unless you're Twitch there's going to be some kind of order as to how you play the game.

I like to play Randomizers on Pokemon Emerald. Makes it more like when I was a kid and didn't know what was going to be in the next Route/Gym. Sidenote: never start with Ralts. Fucker doesn't learn an actual attack until level 6

[Sudo_Nym]

Back when I played Red, I used to always get Abra, since I loved Alakazam; so I would spend a great deal of time trying to catch one before it could Teleport. And then I'd ahve to babysit it until it learned something besides Teleport. And then I'd always get screwed, because Kadabra evolves by trading, and nobody in my neighborhood had their gameboys handy when i wanted a trade.

[Ythan]

Alakazam one of the absolute best in first gen.

hi i am getting a Wii-U tomorrow w/ Super Mario Maker

are there any other suggestions from people who have one on good games to pick up? I'm gonna go a little crazy

[bv310]

I've heard great things about Xenoblade Chronicles.

Yoshi's Woolly World is great, as is Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. The Bayonetta Bundle is good, but not a genre for everyone. Super Mario 3D world is really good.

I'm sure there are more, but that's off the top of my head.

[lilith2013]

Fire Emblem was one of my favorites on Gameboy, I think they have some versions out for Wii U.

[Brandi]

Def get Yoshi's Wooly World! And Smash bros because its great with friends, especially drunk

[Brandi]

don't get Mario Party 10 it's very disappointing

[Ythan]

great with friends, especially drunk

I think this is how Nintendo holds on these days.

[Brandi]

I only get Rest kills when everyone is drunk it's hilarious

[esuriospiritus]

You playing jigglypuff makes complete sense.

[Brandi]

hahaha I only play her when I'm drunk though, Yoshi is who I'm best with
other times I pick Pikachu and spam to annoy everyone
also 2x as fun drunk

[esuriospiritus]

Being good at Yoshi is impressive. I can never get the hang of the stupid rolling egg move. (To be fair, I haven't put a lot of time into trying.)
