    Sounds like a Hollywood thunderstorm. Someone out there must have been having a dramatic moment.
    i went through way to much effort to obtain this image.

    idk what version exactly but it's the tutorial that was the current version when i first played minecraft xbox 360 (which if you didn't know was my first experience of minecraft outside of playing for 30s on a friend's phone age ten and accomplishing nothing but falling into a pit and overall not being very impressed. so yeah, x360 was my first REAL experience of minecraft, it sadly got discontinued so i got java but as it turns out bedrock came with it at the time so i have both)

    We should start a Minecraft thread if there isn't one already.

    I don't see why you would do that, you're missing out on a lot of great game soundtrack that way.

    mainly just because i prefer to experience it legit first, then i can enjoy it as much as i want. plus in addition to non-vgm music i enjoy, ttyd and spm alone each have over 3 hours of ost, that's a lot of music to keep going without repeat

    my brother is getting annoyed at me for repeatedly humming the smb3 overworld theme. i swear that theme is like the catchiest thing ever
    ok so i know this is LONG overdue but i finally have my fifth smm1 level uploaded. this right here
    its late because i was working on another one centered around lakitu clouds but it was so hard i could never upload it, so i eventually gave up and made this instead.

    its my first online level which isnt a remake of an official nintendo level (first four were 3d land 1-1, 3d land bowser-bowser2, 3d land 1-4, smg2 throwback throwdown speed run), and it has three gimmicks - lakitu clouds, cloud blocks, and tracks.

    it follows the formula - introduction, challenge 1, breathe, challenge 2, breathe, challenge 3, breathe, secret area 1, checkpoint, challenge 4, breathe, challenge 5 with secret area 2 embedded, final boss

    Hey.
    Two questions.
    1. Can I call you Mr. Mr. Dusk Starfire sometimes because it sounds cool?
    2. Do you know a place where I can put a GIF into my signature?
    Grape

    1. no

    2. press insert image and post the link to the gif, it should then appear as a rectangle you can resize. thats how i did mine.

    Looking up Luigi 64DD brings up results related to me, but it also consistently brings up someone named LuigiBlood. Why, you ask? Because of the subject that LuigiBlood happens to be very knowledgeable in: the Nintendo 64DD.

    Congrats.

    I'm still pretty obscure in my search results since apparently there is some kind of ship in Destiny called the NanoPhoenix.

    I've watched the video. Even though I strongly disagree with it, I guess I can agree that Super Paper Mario does attempt at points to be charismatic, but that's like, in face of everything else about the game.

    SPM is very much a polarizing game: most people either love it or hate it and there isn't much in between. I think it's a good but flawed game. A lot of very cool stuff but also a lot of badly executed stuff.
    Am I the only one having major technical problems with this site rn?

    It's possible to hold a subjective opinion and back it up with enough logic and reason that it encroaches on "objective" territory because no one can dispute your findings. Don't ever be afraid of having your own personal view on something, but be prepared to fight for it! For something like a video game, it's possible that the game is produced in a sound and proper manner, that it's a functional game in all aspects, but just something about it doesn't click with you or inspire your joy or attention. Like, I fucking hate Super Mario 64, it didn't appeal to me and I found the controls aggravating. Regardless of my personal views, other people find joy in the nostalgia of it, as well as the challenges they can create within it. Both are valid, so long as there's ample reasoning why that exceeds just stubbornness or mindless acceptance. As a critic it is an ongoing battle to challenge your preconceived notions and prevent them from clouding your judgment, but no review will ever be objective; instead use objectivity to build and support a strong subjective argument.

    Don't try to escape your personal views, just try to support them. If you can't find enough support for your personal view, it is up to you to consider whether you continue holding that personal view.

    @Anton thank you for your suggestions!

    I kind of aim to divide it in two: how much I like the game personally, and how good I consider it nonpersonally. If I don't like a game because of something which is just personal taste and doesn't really affect

    The criteria I consider are: was the game intended to be something that could likely become very popular and regarded by many as a very good game? Is it something that would appeal to a wide audience or a narrow one? Is it executed in such a way that this goal is likely to be satisfied? Does it have the properties that would make it entertaining to many people? Can I recommend the game?

    I don't mark down the nonpersonal judgement, but if it does affect that, I do.

    So I'm not fighting against my subjective opinion, I'm just putting it aside when I review things to make it more (as @Striker Mario put it) fair
