For example, I am terrible at Super Meat Boy, but just playing it has really improved how I play platformers and games that need faster imputs overall.

Have you tried Diabotical

[–] pinwurm@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I did. I feel like it overpromised it underdelivered. Mostly, I’m not too thrilled about the character and weapon designs. There’s a lot of UI elements that were taken right from Overwatch.

It’s certainly not bad. Just not what I crave.

Totally fair, the movement and customizable UI is great, but yes, some other areas were not so great. And the player base is just not big enough.

[–] pinwurm@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yeah. I think there’s a lot of room for a Arena FPS Revival, especially for console players who are sick of the monetization and slot-machine point mechanics from games like Call of Duty.

I think the Quake 2 Remaster sales and rave reviews say plenty to that. There’s decent online play too.

Quake 3 Remaster could be perfect for the 25 year anniversary next year.

But who knows.

I would love quake 3 remastered, that was so much fun back in the day
