Here’s the thing though: reality is stupid. While it’s certainly true to life that a mistimed fall will lead to injury and perhaps death, that doesn’t mean it’s fun. Fall damage has never been enjoyable and always hinders how you can play a game. So it’s time for game developers to thumb their nose at Isaac Newton and eliminate fall damage once and for
Fall damage is often added as an extra obstacle for you to worry about, but it’s never an engaging part of any game. At best, your stumble will cost you a small portion of your life bar forcing you to soldier on with what health you have left or waste one of your healing items. At worst, the damage will kill you, causing you to swear at your TV out of frustration and wait for the annoying loading screen to finish so you can painfully make your way back to where you were. No matter what it does, it adds nothing but a moment of irritation that delays your progress. In short, it makes a fun game less
Honestly, the powerhouse that is Bangalore doesn’t need any help in the arena. She can take care of herself. However, if she were to search for companionship, she would find a friend in Torkoal. Torkoal’s Pokédex entry in Pokémon FireRed **__ ** states, ” It burns coal inside its shell. If it is attacked, it belches thick, black smoke and flees. ” Bangalore’s tactical ability does something similar with smoke grenades. Together, they could create a blinding environment that even Bloodhound would have a hard time navigat
The world of Respawn Entertainment’s Apex Legends ** has been a playground of explosive competition for six full seasons, and the fun has just recently launched into a seventh. The wide array of archetypes that the game’s characters bring to the arena offer windows into what kind of a person (or robot) they would be if they were to exist outside of the Apex games, but what if their world were to collide with another? Specifically, the wide world of Pokémon
Released back in 2017, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds _ started the battle royale craze across the globe.

While this was the case before, Fortnite has shown that the battle royale genre is the perfect style of game to lengthen a game’s life. Through season passes, map changes, and in-game events, Fornite is still the most popular game in the world, three years after lauThere are plenty of girls who want to be princesses, and this isn’t to discount any of them. However, there’s something inherently uninspiring about those classic depictions of Peach. Innately, we understood Mario, Luigi and even Bowser. We grew with them and became part of their journeys. But for much of the Super Mario Bros. series, Princess Peach wasn’t much more than a cameo in someone else’s narrative.
Whether you’re roleplaying as a super soldier, heroic knight, or even a cartoon bear, it can be deflating and embarrassing to see your protagonist crumble to the ground in a heap from a fall. Do you mean to tell me that this burly, super-powered character who’s supposed to save the entire world can’t handle a crash landing? Sounds like a wimp to
And look – I’m not against sexy character designs. Actually, I usually like them! I’m a big fan of Senran Kagura and Dead Or Alive, and love the lengths fighting games go to make characters as horny as possible. But there’s a way to have something be sexy and make sense, which Overwatch just never does. Plus, the Overwatch designs pander to the dullest and straightest among us – not to mention the whitest. They uphold the hegemony of white, European beauty standards and apply them to characters of color, which just flat-out su
There’s little to no debate here. Weezing is the obvious Pokémon for Caustic. Caustic spends his time in apex e District map Legends setting traps of noxious gas to slowly suffocate his opponents. Weezing was quite literally born to do the exact same thing. Together, these two could clear a room in seconds. This combination could perhaps be the most deadly of all between Caustic’s Nox Gas Grenade and Weezing’s signature Poison Gas move. If these two are in the fight, players must be sure to bring a gas m
I digress. First, let’s talk about the female characters – practically all of them look the goddamn same. Outliers like Mei and Zarya notwithstanding, almost every single female character, regardless of nationality, ethnicity, or occupation, are identical in both facial characteristics and body type. A gruff military woman hailing from Egypt has the same ass and bust and weight of an introverted teenage hacker from Mexico, a socially awkward Indian mathematician, a dumb white cowgirl, a Swedish welder, a German doctor, a professional gamer from Korea, a French sniper, a white whatever-the-fuck Tracer is, et cet
