Re: [ANSWERS] ⚐ Talkcordhaus 21st Super VGM Guessing Contest Taisen ⚐

Yeah this one just completely bowled over me, I knew like nooone of these. I am happy I got the Gensou Shoujo Taisen one though, I was replaying it via the Switch version recently so it was fresh in my mind (in that "it provokes one hell of an emotion in me" way).

Re: ⚐ Talkcordhaus 21st Super VGM Guessing Contest Taisen ⚐

Well I'm gonna have to review all these later to actually figure out answers but wow this one is even harder than the last. I think I might at most have around 4-5 definitives and the rest are a massive shrug. Serves me right for not playing many SRPGs I guess. :V At the very least, one of them is f...

Re: Outer Wilds - Déjà Vu

I had the urge to make a log of deaths/loop ends, if for nothing but to count them (I don't usually do that but I feel like contributing something in some capacity). Just gonna edit this as we go along. :V (As of loop 12 I'm realizing this is going to get big so into the spoiler tags it goes to save...

Re: [Open!] Talkcordhaus VGM Guessing Contest 19: The Disappearance of Mario Mario

Oh dear hell this one is trickier than usual. I feel lucky to know the like, five songs I immediately recognized. Also I have no idea what the category gimmick is so hopefully someone else with way more VGM knowledge than I can solve it. :'D

Re: [Aftermath] Talkcordhaus VGM Guessing Contest 18: World's End Results

That Kirby 64 song really messed with me at first because I knew it wasn't the version from Dream Land 3 and I was right! Oh well, one of these days I'll do better than fifth. Also, glad you liked the comments, it's become a habit for me when sending in guesses to commentate. ^^;;;

Re: YUMP2 - 32 - Koopa Kid Castle Clear

I actually managed to get to this level in my own playthrough, but this is probably the first level in the entire hack where I have no qualms heavily savescumming through it (as opposed to the normal amount of savescum which is usually like, a state per level if it's getting exhausting, I know I'm a...

Re: YUMP2 - 10 - Lost Child of Time

So logic gate town is, technically simple, I guess? From the perspective of knowing how computer logic goes at least, it's being simulates by having a and b represented as the plant blocks. Opening a plant block is setting it to true, they start as false otherwise. So for like, say, "not a,&quo...

Re: YUMP2 - 7 - Nonary Game

So I went first down the lefthand path when I first poked at this hack, and I was quick to learn of the existence of not only the YSP which was, a time, but also mario goes vegan. I had, somewhat known that it was "a thing" going into it. I sure didn't expect how really much of a thing it ...

Re: YUMP2 - 4 - Around the World

I mean, to clarify, the joke doesn't work for me, someone who usually expects the amount of time something like this takes to be a finale or something like that. In fact I bet if this were Bowser's Castle or something I'd not worry about it too much. Yes, I get it, you can just put it down and pick ...

Re: YUMP2 - 4 - Around the World

I will say it's slightly less funny when you're on the receiving end of it, especially if you're like me, who went the exact same path raocow did, and thus come upon it like 10 exits into the hack, but I imagine that if encountered later it doesn't set any sort of precedent (I was actively terrified...

Re: YUMP2 - 4 - Around the World

To be fair, I wasn't sure when I played if that counted quick retry or not. I think of the vanilla checkpoints when I hear checkpoint, so it took me awhile to realize "oh I could take a break from this and not do it in one go without savestating my own checkpoints." Also as for how this is...

Re: YUMP2 - 4 - Around the World

Yup, I think I had it saved as like raocowisgoingtoregretthisinamonthortwo.png or something, because I think that might have been like, a week or two after I went through it so I understood The Joke as it were.

...It's debatable if the joke is funny but it's a joke.

Re: YUMP2 - 1 - Tulips or Roses?

I think we should maybe not go on yet another tirade about that level because uh, it's been covered, for one, and for two, the gist of it is more "it's artistic in how brutally unfun a single screen level can be made and cause that sheer amount of frustration," we can move on from that ple...

Re: YUMP 2 - 1 - Tulips or Roses?

So it begins. I kinda wish I were any better at smw so I could go through this myself and see for myself what parts of it are really neat and interesting and seeing what parts, maybe are less-so (like my opinions on what does or doesn't feel good to play matters for this sorta hack), but hey why str...

Re: YUMP 2

There are four categories above Very Hard, being Kaizo: Light, Kaizo: Hard, Kaizo: Pit, and Misc.: Troll, which to me says they're fine with kaizo hacks and the like. I dunno what about YUMP 2 would break that, from the amount I played and what the people who've made the hack have said it's Kaizo: ...

Re: COMING UP NEXT

I guess the way I'm reading it is that having an opinion, positive or negative, is invalid in this case and so expressing a like or dislike of the thing meant for a certain niche is wrong and selfish entitlement, and people like me are fools for expressing that.
