Re: Level-5's Morphing Mech RPG Megaton Musashi Will Be Treated To New Info This December

Dakotastomp

"Megaton Musashi is a cross-media project which is set to include an RPG for unannounced platforms, a TV show, a range of toys, and more."

For an American company, I'd say that's being too ambitious, but this is Japanese so I say all that is business as usual unless the product really fails to reach a global audience. I think I'll give it a go after I buy that mech brawler coming soon.

Re: Enchanted Portals Is A Cuphead-Style Co-Op Game Eyeing Up A Release On Switch

Dakotastomp

@Anthracks I understand that, but Cuphead is hardly even 5 years old right now. Having copies so soon after really seems like jumping the gun and it's like they're trying to take what made Cuphead so successful, and not add any of the effort and charm.

Games like Realm Royale and Paladins are similar to Fortnite and Overwatch in gameplay mechanics, but have differences in them that are significant enough to be their own things from the inspiration.

Like I said, I hope they add something to make it more original and give it its own identity, but still, it's clear that they just wanted to copy cup's success without going through the same rigorous process MDHR did.

Re: Review: BurgerTime Party! - Too Many Cooks Spoil The Burger

Dakotastomp

"A true 2019 update should deliver ludicrous towers of buttermilk chicken, smashed avocado and chipotle sauce. Our chef hero Peter Pepper should be heaving his ass up and over fat brioche buns, and picking pulled pork from his shoes. "

This review is making me hungry and reawakening my food fetish side XD. I think I'll just stick to the classic Burgertime for now.

"Would the Food Standards Agency stomach a chef stamping on meat? And what separates the evil sausages who chase Pepper from the frankfurters you use in some stages to build hot dogs instead of burgers? Who decides which food gets a soul? (Although the game is 100% correct about dill pickle being of the devil.)"

If you're wondering how he eats and breathes and other science facts, just repeat to yourself it's just a game I should really just relax.

Also:
>Doesn't enjoy the sweet, briny tang of dill pickles
WORST REVIEW EVER 4/10

Re: Enchanted Portals Is A Cuphead-Style Co-Op Game Eyeing Up A Release On Switch

Dakotastomp

Glad I'm not the only one who's jaded by this new game. You can't just copy cuphead's style, make it in flash, give a new coat of paint, and call it something else. There has to be more differences in the gameplay and world to give it its own identity. What's different here to hook the players in besides "Uh, they're human magicians"? These guys are just lookin to get sued!

The character designs are cute tho. Maybe I'll play it for that alone.

Re: Review: Asphalt 9: Legends - Likeable Burnout-Style Racing Action, If You Play The Right Way

Dakotastomp

@SachmoJoe Aight, just seems ridiculous to stomp out all F2P games just because you don't like the formula, but you're allowed to speak your truth about it.

To me, not all freemium games are the same(Warframe, Paladins, Overwatch when it was still a free to play game) but then there's that Angry Bunnies game that's a mobile ripoff that's whole set up revolves around having to pay money, and that deserves to burn. It's only a problem to me if a paywall is the ONLY way to progress instead of just grinding.

Re: Fortnite "Ruined Our Child's Life", Claims Family At The Centre Of New Class-Action Lawsuit

Dakotastomp

"Epic Games spent "many years" working with psychologists to find out how to make its Battle Royale game as addictive as possible so that players would become hopelessly hooked"

Sounds like a heaping pile of llama feces! We should all know that anyone who works at Epic Games isn't nearly smart enough to concoct a plan that evil just to get kids' money. They saw Youtube videos of internet memes, and just put that in the game. That's it. It's what children love, and children are easily manipulated into liking flashy and colorful things. So of course, kids are going to become enticed with fortnite because it has all that. I will not say that they knew this would happen, but parents need to stop blaming games and Companies for their own faults at being cr@ppy parents.

Stop buying them V-bucks for stupid dances and skins, start monitoring their playtime and who they talk to and how they talk to them, and for God's sake, turn off the system, and go outside with your kids and talk to them! DON'T MAKE THIS THE DEVELOPERS' FAULTS!

Re: Review: Asphalt 9: Legends - Likeable Burnout-Style Racing Action, If You Play The Right Way

Dakotastomp

I really don't get the hate for mobile games. If you avoid paying for everything or avoid impulse buying, it's pretty much an enjoyable experience. This is coming from someone who played Asphalt 8 and before his account was erased because of low storage space got a ton of cars just by winning more races. Just not as big a deal to me when it comes to free-to-play as long as its balanced. P2W crap is beyond redeemable if the bosses or challenges are impossible to beat without leveling up a ton or having a specific "cash only" car. Just my two cents.

Can't wait to play it tho! Asphalt is currently the best alt. To Burnout period.

Re: A Knight's Quest Brings 3D Zelda-Style Adventuring To Switch Next Week

Dakotastomp

Why does every action-adventure platformer have to be inspired by Zelda? This game seems too platformer focused to compare with Zelda, since this game looks like it plays similarly to old school PS2 platfomers. A better comparison so far would be ratchet and clank or Jak and Daxter in the hacking and slashing, hop and bop category, meanwhile the only thing Zelda inspired I can point out in all this is the time manipulation skill. I'm sure there's more to see soon, but it's really not that similar to Zelda in my eyes.

Re: Untitled Goose Game Developer Reveals The Cheeky Name They Almost Used

Dakotastomp

"Some like it honk"

GOTY TITLE 2020!
Honestly tho, I don't really see as much appeal to this game as others have. Like if you already play Goat Simulator, this is more less the same, but with a goose. I do praise it for its humor and art style, which I hope carries over to the next game they work on.

I doubt we've seen the last of this goose in videogames. It's the next Shovel Knight!

Re: Review: Contra: Rogue Corps - An Ugly And Unfocused Mess That Shames The Contra Name

Dakotastomp

@PJOReilly >Hahaha he made a spelling mistake! What an Asshole!

Guess not everyone can be as "perfect" as lil' old you, huh?

>Wow, you're really angry about a titty game.

More disappointed in how you wrote your review to be as snarky as possible instead of just fousing mainly on whether or not the game is any fun or not. Maybe it's not your cup of tea, but if you're gonna write a review for more hentai/anime games in the future, try having some empathy for those that actually like that stuff.

You can easily ignore me instead of bringing this s---- back up, as I can't ignore you sadly.

And by the way you review lewd material, I'm sure you would consider a massage 2lewd4me. Have a nice life.

Re: Review: Contra: Rogue Corps - An Ugly And Unfocused Mess That Shames The Contra Name

Dakotastomp

@Doofenshmirtz It's that game alright. It looks low budget and cliche as all hell, but if people like that content, I say let them.

@PJOReilly I brought it up because you did write the review like an uptight prude who thinks he's better than people who support these types of games and should learn from your mistakes. So it's rude to come into a review you posted and remind people "Hey, this guy was acting like a smart ass to people who play hentai games in general." But it's not rude to make a snidey review that also bashes people who like that sort of game? Hypocrisy at its finest. I don't play the game, and I can agree it looks low-budget and stiff, but I wouldn't use the game as an excuse to say "It's hard to imagine people actually play these sorts of games." I don't care if you didn't like it, don't be a smart ass about it.

Re: Review: Gun Gun Pixies - A Pitiful Perv-Fest That Also Fails As A Video Game

Dakotastomp

@Rika_Yoshitake And it's that morality that makes Nintendolife a very bias and prudish site for games like this and other anime game titles. It would be fine if they at least acknowledged that there are people who support these games and didn't talk down to them like they're the scum of the earth and at the very least say "Sorry, dudes. I know there are some of you who really love titles like GGP, but it's just not my cup of tea." But they don't.

Re: Review: Gun Gun Pixies - A Pitiful Perv-Fest That Also Fails As A Video Game

Dakotastomp

@RedKhan I can choose neither because I'm not the one buying the game. Maybe I'm just annoyed by how they constantly belittle these games and do no actual reporting especially if they don't like hentai games. That's not fair, that's just mocking.

So you think they should make fun of these games and the people who play them because you think they are the lowest of the low and the worst of the worst because it's perverted? God forbid somebody would find a fictional character attractive or get off to anime boobs instead of watching real porn. I don't judge a person's lifestyle choices if it's not harming anyone, so why are you?

And stop assuming you know me so well. I don't go on Whatever Niche is, i don't play GGP or eroge games, but I am someone who likes butts and boobs like any healthy young male attracted to women. I'm just tired by how the press and fanbase treats the fanbases and games in general. The press doesn't have to like it, but they have to remember there are people here that do and don't enjoy being made fun of.

Re: Review: Gun Gun Pixies - A Pitiful Perv-Fest That Also Fails As A Video Game

Dakotastomp

@BMOC I really don't know what else you expect me to say at this point. He can have strong opinions on the game, but the way he does it is childish mocking. Not everybody enjoys being mocked or teased for what they like. Some reviewers know how to treat their audience with a little dignity and respect while also being critical or finding actual value in a product as long as long as the people who worked on it put actual effort into it. It's called "empathy". Think about how the other person feels when they read those remarks and take it to heart. Do you think it's fine as long as it's not a game you are interested in?

And to answer your question, yes, It is because it hurts my feelings. Not many people like coming to a site to see a sarcastic review on a game that's main appeal was always lewd entertainment(me), and maybe those that do expect them to be mindful of the intended audience(Not me, but I still support the people who work on the games). Whenever they make reviews like this one, it mainly targets the main appeal and main audience and then asses like yourself use reviews like this to defend the idea that "Hentai games are disgusting and the people who play them are disgusting. They need to be banned." Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to poke fun at others who do. And if they can't do that, don't do it at all. But as you said, they aren't going to give a crap about my feelings or opinions on the subject, so I guess I will take my business elsewhere. Which again ties back to what I said before: NL is a bias site to games like these and they only make these reviews for the likes and clickbait because they just cherry pick their research with with rude comments on the fanbase.

On top of that, you haven't even played it to know if he's right or not. How do you know that there may not be some replay entertainment value in it considering you like porn and hentai and all? Why not do your own research instead?
