Oh, raocow.
Sees SMB3-style bricks. Tries breaking them by spinjumping. This fails. Immediately decides he needs to throw shells at them. Accidentally breaks one by hitting it from below. Does not notice.

Never change, man.

Also: raocow has a bucket o' hair. This is now canon.

I haven't had much to say, myself... other than, perhaps, how amusing I find it that a lot of "references" in this game are both to ridiculously obscure, arbitrary things... and often, the only "reference" is in the level name and a couple text boxes, with the level itself just being a fairly standa...

Sebby, you have *no* idea just how lenient I and the rest of the mods have *been* with you. Why does everyone single you out? Because, as everyone else here has said, you don't *listen*. To *anyone*. You don't listen to the other posters. You don't listen to the mods. You don't even listen to *raoco...

Mars is effective against Mercury and vice versa (Fire vs Water/Ice), and the same with Venus and Jupiter (Earth vs Lightning/Wind). Okay so if this is the case, why is Mia (water/ice) taking critical hits from Storm Lizard (wind)? To be completely honest, after playing two and a half games in the ...

The whole djinni system seems kinda needlessly complex, and I don't really want to worry that much about how setting and unsetting different ones will give me different psynergies and whatnot. It's too much work and the game seems to be completely playable without putting that effort in so I haven'...

Dark Souls


Not a game so much as a symbol of bragging rights for "hard core" gamers.

I updated the JUMP SPC set that xfix posted a while back. Fixed a few timers, standardized the tagging to the rest of the sets I uploaded, stuff like that. Nothing overly major; if you downloaded it before, you probably don't need to again. Also, I added it to the main post. Incidentally, a couple o...

As another example, he's already confirmed for Sonic 3 & Knuckles, he'll do 2 playthroughs as both Sonic and Knuckles, but won't be doing a playthrough as Tails. I haven't played that, but I've heard that Knuckles gets some different levels and different routes through the levels that *are* shared,...

There is a bit of a fine line regarding games with mutiple playable characters. Maybe that line can be determined by how much their playthrough changes the game itself, level and storywise? A couple of points about this. First off, how much playing as another character changes up a game is subjecti...

Finally got around to updating the set. All the song origins have been added to the "Comments" field of the tags. Thanks largely to Koba and Pyro for their help.

Heh... I haven't posted here in a while (I usually just ramble about games I'm playing on Discord these days), but I see that the discussion has moved in a "Golden Sun" direction, coincidentally right as I started playing Dark Dawn. And it's funny. My first impression of the game was "...these peopl...

I was kind of disappointed that there was no real fanfare after beating RNG. I expected one more "town" to be unlocked, where you could get either some game-breakingly powerful "hey, replay the levels with this crazy add-on" item, or at least a new costume or two for replays, if you got all the drag...

Somehow, I don't see a return to Soldexus happening. As I understand it, that LP was a disaster, I got the impression that neither he nor the community at large *liked* the game in the first place, and I somehow doubt playing as the other character would change many minds. But hey, maybe he will. :m...

I kinda liked XXI. Like raocow, there were a few parts where I literally didn't know what I *could've* done (both spots involving cannons in tight passages), and I felt the Gilgamesh music was kind of out of place (not that I minded, because I love that song), but the gimmick was super neat. Umbrell...

...lol. How did I not notice Selective Water? I knew that was from Super Mario Kart.

Anyway, I'll update the set a bit later. Thanks for the help, all.

Hah. And here I thought I was the only one who did that. Nice to see I wasn't alone.

I know what a few of the ?s are, at least. "Party in the House" is from some MOD conversion hack homebrew SNES thingy called "Modular Escape", where it's titled "Ode to MON (Part 2)". But as that's just a collection of converted MOD files, I have no idea of its origin. "Do Pilots Wear Capes?" is "An...

Finished the JUMP 1/2 SPC set. I'm pretty sure I got all the music, though there might have been one or two super well-hidden ones I missed somewhere. Also: I included a doofy "bonus track" that I found too hilarious *not* to. No song identifications yet; hopefully someone can come along and provide...

I loved both Goomball Machine (probably my favorite level in the entire hack, as I said yesterday) and Edinburgh. Good stuff.

Though I am curious as to why Goomball Machine has a midpoint, when I found no obvious way to *die* in the level.

I just want to apologize again for what I said yesterday. I offer no excuses. I was out of line. More on-topic, I look forward to the next stage. It was probably my favorite in the entire game... so very clever. I guess the take away from this is watch what you say or you'll make someone cry. This i...

This is something I've always been curious about-- how much does an impression about the level impact gameplay? If one sees JUMP1/2 described as being tamer than JUMP, will the player get irritable after just a few deaths of learning? On the other hand, if a level is described as being the hardest ...

Perhaps it's a tad more fair in this sense to interpret Pyro's statement as built-up frustration with how some people consistently contribute to the fire. It's easy to pin her down for poor etiquette but if you do so while skipping over the message contained within that's also not really helping an...

On one hand, you have a load of reset doors, which are kind enough to simply restart that current section, instead of dropping you at the start of the area; very nice. However, then you have the second half, which has a fair few instances where if you mess up, your only option is to die. Ideally, t...

Every one of your posts is so highly defensive of every little thing people find wrong -- your visions were all so meaningful and perfect and we're all just a bunch of whinebabies for challenging your "artistic masterpiece". That was extremely uncalled for and just plain rude. Yes, I was wrong, I s...

I know this sounds patronizing, but I really, really think this is you misreading other people. I wholly acknowledge that may very well be the case. I do have a bad tendency to misread/misinterpret what people say, and then respond inappropriately (or, rather, in my mind, it's the appropriate respo...
