THREAD OF DISAPPOINTMENT AND HATE

Sulphur on 8/11/2018 at 09:36

As a proud survivor of internet 1.0, internet 2.0, and the current era of our internet overlords #millennial #[ambivalently postured emoji] #bumscruffpoopsnuggle #woketoke ~~#NSFW aggretsuko gifs~~, this forum requires special housing for some of our questionable personalities' more questionable impulses.

So I hereby declare this thread as a one-stop shop for all your bilious barfs, poop chute pellets, and every other manner of lavatory lugubriciousness. Yes, this is for you, you special urine-drenched snowflake. Yeah. THAT'S RIGHT.

Also, henke was entirely responsible for this thread. If you have a problem, take it up with him.

First up:

So, you want a "soft 4chan" section on TTLG? Why not just stop kidding yourself and go for the real thing? :p

Everyone play The Quiet Man. Now.

henke on 8/11/2018 at 10:49

Hah, perfect. :)

Now we have all the bases covered. Or do we still need a THREAD OF AMBIVALENCE? (no)

N'Al on 8/11/2018 at 10:53

Meh.

So, this is the Blood Bowl venting thread?

Maybe, but we'll never get around to it.

I've been replaying Mark of the Ninja, and finding the upgrades to be kinda weird. Like, you start with some really good ones, and then its followed by a lot of mediocre to poor options, so instead of being excited "hey, let me try this" it's usually kind of disappointing. And then there's the outfit styles. The first you get is Hunter, which lets you carry two attack items. Two different attack items. But you only have access to one attack item at the time... Hunter is a decent outfit later in the game, but when you unlock it, it sucks. And frankly the second attack item you get, caltrops, is borderline useless anyway. The next outfit you unlock is Silence, in which you don't get a sword. It's a sweet outfit, especially if you want that no-kills bonus, but every mission for quite some time gives a bonus objectives that involve killing. Gah. How could they not notice this and sort this out? Especially with linear unlocks. An outfit should unlock with a mission tailored to make it shiny.

In case anyone still needs convincing that the PS Classic is utterly unconvincing I'll just post this here:

You get access to the Hunter/Silence/Terror paths based on the bonus objectives you complete, so there's no guarantee that you'll unlock Hunter first unless you're anal about completing every bonus objective on the first go. Also, completing the DLC map (automatically included in the Remaster) unlocks an additional path (Wisdom), a distraction item and an attack item. You can complete the DLC map before tackling the main game.

Well, that just makes it even less excusable, doesn't it? If there are other options just hanging around waiting, why even have the option to unlock Hunter until you have two attack items? (And why even have a system like that if it's not going to be called out anywhere in the interface for people to pursue?) I stand by my assertion that major unlocks should be paired with situations that cater to their use - y'know, like most games do.

Speaking of anal, I think this game goes too far in punishing stealth failures, especially when compared to deaths. "Whoops, that's going to cost me a point of honor - unless I go stand in front of this machine gun!"
