Helldivers 2 Wish List

Image
  Hello! I wanted to talk about Helldivers 2 today. I’ve been seeing some videos from OhDough on YouTube and I think he has a lot of good points. People on Reddit and such will say that he’s just negative and whatever but criticism is good. Glazing games, movies, franchises doesn’t do us any good. I mean if something was truly perfect that would be amazing but there’s always something that could be better and when it comes to live service games it can be the difference of the game thriving or dying.             In his videos, OhDough goes in depth looking at weapon damage, enemy armor, changes in patches, all kinds of crap that I will never notice and I appreciate him and other people that do it, in any and all games. One thing he talks about a lot is fun VS the grunt fantasy. Helldivers 2 is billed as a grunt fantasy like Starship Troopers in that you are a weak human against impossible odds. You are not supposed to be a sup...

Horizon Steel Frontiers & Steam Drops Some Hardware

Image
  Hello! No real um, theme again, just some random leftover things from my wish list and thoughts on a few recent game related news bits. Horizon released a video of a Monster Hunter like, Steam showed off a bunch of crap so let’s just start.             Something I randomly was thinking about was Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat is brutal but it’s the only fighting game that’s like that but it’s also so dark and, and, brown you know? Gears of War brown. I was thinking if there was another fighter like MK but maybe more colorful. I was thinking something like MK crossed with Windjammers. Unapologetically (whoa, I spelt that right on the first try) 90s, over the top, peppy announcers. After Lego Party I want more games to have announcers, Ultimate Alliance had a little bit of an announcer when you would get combos going. I guess other fighters have some announcers, BlazBlue had some for “counters” and stuff. I just think it would...

Umm, Just Random Things I Guess

Image
             Hello. I haven’t really had the urge to write anything lately. I don’t even know where to start or what my point is today, so let’s just ramble.             Mario seems to be in a little trouble lately, first Sonic Racing CrossWorlds and now Lego Party. The problem with being the king and not having any competition is that you get complacent and put out subpar products and leave the door open for someone else to steal the crown . I’ve seen on… BlueSky, Twitter, one of those, someone say that Shadow Generations is better than Bowser’s Fury, that is quite the claim and one I don’t agree with personally. I am a little down about Mario Kart World, there are things they put back in that I like; when Lakitu picks you up from falling off the track you can get a small boost if you time it right and you can out run blue turtle shells with a turbo mushroom. Everything else though, it’s kind of...

Wish List 2025

Image
  Hello! I kind of fell off there for a bit. Haven’t really had much to talk about and there’s just been too much to do both video game wise and real life wise. I just bought a handful of games on the Steam sale that I’d like to play, playing Silksong, Helldivers, Legion Remix just started, Pokemon Legends coming out soon (at time of writing), Metroid in a month or two right? Fuck me. So I’ll do the usual, start with my favorite wants from the past and some updates on if there’s been anything that’s come out that I kind of wanted.             So. 2D Monster Hunter fighting game , Waifu Division , Power Rangers VS Street Fighter and my new favorite ideas; Power Rangers Mosou/Warriors game and Pokemon/Expedition 33 . Aside from that I had mentioned wanting a game kind of like Delicious in Dungeon where you have to cook food as you go sort of thing, not only do you collect weapon and armor from mobs but you have to collect foo...

WoW Times 8

Image
              Hello! I started this to just organize my thoughts on cross faction play better because, like usual, I don’t think I had communicated it well enough. I’m sure most people would understand what I want but I do see people online make some stupid claims and I don’t know if they’re being serious or just trolling but that’s how this started. I then was gonna bring up the one-button rotation thing a bit but then it just kind of snowballed so yeah, another WoW post but it’s mostly UI related. Things I personally would like changed or can’t believe hasn’t been integrated yet and then some random, personal character bullshit. Are you excited ???             When I say “cross faction play,” I’m not saying I want to be able to stroll through Iron Forge on my Tauren and pick up baby quest in Alliance towns or go quest through Zandalar on a Night Elf. No no no. When I s...

World of ChillCraft

Image
                 Hello. It’s me. AztecSauce. So I haven’t opened b.net in a long while but I’ve been bored so I opened it to see what was going on. I was immediately greeted with something for Hearthstone about the Lost City of Un’goro or something. The artwork looked cool, there was the Night Elf archeologist girl showing midriff, bein’ hot, so I was like “eh, I’ll take a look at this.” I install it, get in there, bombarded with a bunch of shit that I don’t understand, get rid of all that and start looking around. How do I play this game? I’m looking for this Un’goro thing, not finding it because you know, it’s a mobile game and all mobile game UIs are garbage. I think I found it but it looks like some kind of battle pass thing where you get points for playing and doing “quests” and stuff. Not really what I was looking for., but it made me think of WoW but like, I want a different kind of WoW. Maybe a more chill WoW. It’s kind of the...

Expedition Pokemon

Image
  Hello! So after my last post I started thinking and when I really look at Expedition 33, it very much acts like an old school Pokemon game. It probably acts like a lot of JRPGs but I can’t say I’ve played many so my only real reference is Pokemon. So, along with my previous posts on my ideal Pokemon game ( post 1 , post 2 ) I think this is the definitive, personal dream game I would love to see in the future. TL;DR in last paragraph.             While envisioning a Pokemon game that behaves more like Expedition 33 I was finding that E33 behaves more like a Pokemon game then I would’ve guessed. You have an overworld with various portals to other zones and those zones are separate from the main overworld. So I’m imagining Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green looking like Expedition 33. The final product doesn’t have to be as good looking as E33 but Game Freak did release a trailer for a game that looks like it runs a lot better than ...
