A while ago I spent 20 minutes doing captchas to try to reset the password to my Steam account. I finally Googled to see if it usually took so many, and it turned out to just be bugged, lmao. Had to reset it through the mobile app instead, IIRC.

They think you look sympathetic and they’re trying to make friends.
- Comment on Anon encounters a Switch owner 3 weeks ago:
It did. In TotK only, put (almost) any weapon on the ground in front of a Rock Octorok and let it inhale it and spit it out. You’ll get back the same base weapon, with the same fused item, at full durability, but with a rerolled modifier.
- Comment on Anon encounters a Switch owner 3 weeks ago:
People in this thread really hate weapon durability, huh? I thought it was kind of genius, and that TotK introducing a way to repair weapons was really bad for the gameplay loop.

Mine is like 50% vids from people I mildly dislike and 50% Vtubers. I think there is really just not very much good short content.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
A measuring cup is a specific size, about 237mL. There’s a whole system of US measurements, actually:
3 teaspoons in a tablespoon
2 tablespoons in an ounce
8 ounces in a cup
2 cups in a pint
2 pints in a quart
4 quarts in a gallon
Not all cups are measuring cups; if you are having a cup of coffee that doesn’t mean your cup is exactly 8oz. You just infer from context that if someone is talking about ingredients then you should measure them with a measuring cup.

- Comment on There is one uncleared level remaining in Super Mario Maker, with 18 days to go before the servers shut down 1 month ago:
It’s only in SMM2, which doesn’t allow you to edit other people’s levels. And actually there is now a 3rd party tool to view SMM2 levels so those levels are now exposed as well.
- Comment on There is one uncleared level remaining in Super Mario Maker, with 18 days to go before the servers shut down 1 month ago:
Sorry, yeah, it is intended that all levels are beatable. To upload a level you must prove that it is beatable by clearing it from the beginning without dying, and then clearing it again from each checkpoint (if there are any) to prove that it can also be cleared from any checkpoints.
Hacked levels have existed that cannot be cleared, but they can be reported and Nintendo takes them down. They should all be taken down by now, but in any case if it’s obviously impossible (the goal is completely blocked by impenetrable walls) Team 0% marks them as hacked on their spreadsheet in addition to reporting them, so they wouldn’t count.
In this game you can download levels and see the full level in the editor, so it isn’t possible to make a level that is “practically” unclearable using hidden information. Any things like hidden keys, “passcode” sections (where you need to hit blocks a certain number of times in order to manipulate things hidden off screen), etc. are trivially defeated by viewing the level in the editor.

The red balls are lit Bob-ombs. While lit, they can be carried, thrown, bounced on (with spin jumps), and kicked (when touched any other way), and obviously after a short time they explode. Thrown, dropped, kicked, or bounced Bob-ombs kill enemies and collect coins.
Yes, in Super Mario World the spin jump allowed you to bounce on dangerous enemies including Pirahna Plants, and actually the Super Mario Maker version is nerfed in some ways: in the oringal SMW you could also spin jump on certain things like fireballs and saws that you can’t in SMM.
- Comment on Disgaea fans: How does 4 compare to 1 and 2, doods? 1 month ago:
As someone who played 1 and then 5, I was really annoyed by how nice most of the demons in 5 are.
Also that one character whose arc is about coming to terms with the fact that her family is actually broke, when she had built her identity around being rich… but MFer you’re a demon overlord! Your overlord power is mind control! Just take other people’s money!

- Comment on Dragon's Dogma 2: Review Thread 1 month ago:
I don’t think DD1 and BG3 have very much in common, honestly. DD1 was not a game where you engaged in immersive dialogue or developed interesting relationships (well, there was a relationship mechanic, but if you didn’t know how it worked, it didn’t feel like you had a lot of input.
It was more a game about walking around surprisingly atmospheric environments and then fighting for your life against surprisingly difficult encounters. (It also had the reverse-difficulty-curve problem, where the beginning of the game was very hard and the enemies felt very tanky because of how damage was calculated, and then once you had some reasonable gear and stats the game got much easier.)
I would definitely watch someone else play an hour or two of DD2 when it comes out before you decide to buy it, especially if the action combat was what you didn’t like about Dark Souls.

Very cool! I’m looking forward to it, but it also seems like the first expac that I might not want to enable for every playthrough, which is interesting—I wonder if we’ll see more of these themed packs going forward.

It’s not super clear, but probably for ignoring directions from the organizers who tried to get him to stop impersonating Owen Wilson (for some reason) and stop telling people to tweet @AirCanada.
I think the ban has run out and he can submit runs again by now, but these are the kind of petty grudges I like to hold!

I haven’t forgiven them for banning Bonesaw577 after his legendary Jak and Daxter at SGDQ2016.

- Comment on You'll never guess the most popular internet country code 4 months ago:
I hate videos where the title is a question but could just be the answer, so I Googled the answer instead of clicking: it’s Germany’s country code, .de, which has 16.1 million registered domains. The next two are .uk and .cn, which belong to the United Kingdom and China, with 10.6 million and 9 million domains, respectively.

I have quit playing games over way less than that, lol. I have so many games I own but haven’t finished, and just as many that I’ve finished but would play again, there is no reason to stick with any particular one if I’m not feeling it.

- Comment on Starfield players create famous faces in-game, and a Todd Howard flashlight 8 months ago:
I’m like 90% sure that the character creator has lighting features enabled that are normally disabled for performance reasons, which is why it’s much easier to look good in the character creator than it is in the game.
If I’m right, maybe modders can “fix” it (although it will probably tank performance).

You can do mirrors without raytracing by using a second camera, which is how Portal does the seeing-through-portals trick.

Really? I’ll have to look at the puddles when I get there; I was disappointed to see that mirrors don’t work.

Ohhh I knew there was something different about the clutter placement in Starfield! There’s so much of it I catch myself triple checking areas to make sure that I didn’t miss anything worth picking up.
