/vr/ - Retro Games

[Princess Sevenleaf No.7143631]

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I'm not a huge fan of bosses in video games having a surprise second form. That shit just sends my anxiety spiraling through the roof.

Like I get it if it's the final boss, but shit like Chykka from Metroid Prime Echoes can straight-up go fuck itself. The second form took me like twenty minutes to beat! Twenty minutes of desperately clinging to life in an arena where your health is constantly draining! Is that shit supposed to be fun? Fuck you Retro!

and yes, I have, but that's not really the same at all. Like, if you've fought Chykka in Metroid Prime Echoes you know what I'm talking about.

Holy fuck you sound like a pussy. Chykka was awesome, as were most of Prime 2's bosses.

Sorry.... Just, bosses with multiple forms stress me the fuck out, which is what I smoke weed and play vidya to get away from :/

[Anonymous No.7143687]

>>7143631
How do you feel about bosses that changes their tactics when their health gets low enough? It's not exactly a second form in a technical sense.

echoes and 3 are shit. prime is the only good 3D metroid.

Prime 1 is the worst of the 3D metroids, and Echoes is the best.

Give it up attentionwhore, no one wants you here. Sorry you’re such a disgusting shut in failure irl that you need to use a name on an anonymous forum to build a “wacky persona” but the rest of us think it’s fucking pathetic.

>>7143687
It doesn't really bother me, I pretty much expect it.

I guess what bothers me about Chykka is like... the game actually TRICKS you into thinking you've won, and has a post-fight cutscene where the boss music stops playing and it gives you plenty of time to relax and let your guard down before throwing the second form at you. That just.... kind of almost made me cry.

people who face real stress often find stressful videogames therapeutic because it raises cortisol

you main problem is that you're just not rising to the occasion, you're looking for an escape instead of recreation in between making daily efforts to improve your life

you are anxious because life is slippin away from u

[Princess Sevenleaf No.7143835]

>anxious because life is slippin away from u
It's not, though. Prior to the pandemic I had an extremely active social life, even during the pandemic I have lots of people wanting to hang out with me all the time but I just don't wanna take the risk before I'm able to get the vaccine.

Oh, and cortisol? You mean that stuff that spikes up in my bloodstream everytime someone closes a door or puts a dish away too loudly? I have freakin' PTSD, I don't need video games to elevate my cortisol.

Bitches me acting like they know me

[Anonymous No.7143861]

>>7143835
its not about your social life it's about your individual agency and ability to self-actualize

also there is no vaccine that can catch up to covid as fast as it's going to acquire variation unto itself, 200 million out of 7 billion people are going to die according to extremely predictable mathematical models that are yet to be wrong regardless of our efforts to the contrary.

What you should do is actually work out to properly make use of those stress hormones and actually cycle your metabolic processes instead of arresting yourself in a state of apprehension with constant drug use

weed also fucks up your blood circulation and oxygenation in the interior parts of your brain if you don't get some sort of cardio, that blood pumping excitement that you're fighting against is actually your body trying to save itself, no matter how much you hate it

I really enjoy Earthworm Jim 3D. I know it's not a popular game, hell, it's not even a good game. But I have many memories of me and my uncle playing that game together, laughing at how ridiculous the setting was, being scared by the spooky levels. I miss him so much.

My all-time favorite game, idk maybe Shovel Knight. It's the perfect length for an action game, doesn't overstay its welcome, has a wide variety of cool magical weaponry, lovable characters (Mona!!), great spritework and hnnng that soundtrack.
