>Watching Pete Completes XCOM Enemy Within Impossible/Ironman playlist.>Reloads an out of game backed up save file for episode 09 due to "corruption".>Reloads an out of game backup save file for episode 17 due to missing an achievement.Obviously less than a third of the way through the playlist this isn't really an ironman/roguelike run. Why are streamers like this?
>>730906385I was always more of a Bronzeman player. You know the one that lets you restart missions but no mid mission saving. I've fucked up too many Ironman runs just by misclicking or something.
>>730906385>hey guys>I was watching this streamer>and>and you see>he did something stupid>so I came here to ask you>why did he do it?Go back and stay there faggot.
>>730906637I was watching the video
who will hold them accountable?as few people who care that they played a video game even fewer care that they save scummed
>>730906951It's disingenuous though. They could have played a completionist impossible difficulty with normal reloading allowed and left it at that.I guess the reason to throw "ironman" in there even though it is not really is to be clickbait.
>>730907606no, you're right the guy is misrepresenting what he's doing either to trick others or because he has no dignity. it's gross and tacky and you are right to deny him further views
>>730906637Go back to where? YouTube? Fuck up, newfag.
>>730906385>>Watching Pete Completes XCOM Enemy Within Impossible/Ironman playlist.Why? Are you dumb?
>>730908310OP is valid and PETE failed to meet his stated goals. Remind you of anyone?
petebros are we going to accept this slander
>>730906385I guess his ironman run petered out.
>>730906385>watching a mangs ironman of a sacred stones randomizer and enjoying the run>lord dies at like ch15>kinda want him to keep playing anyway>he honors the ironman and ends the runwas kinda disappointed but also respect
Dawg I heard playing turn based autism simulators wasn't enough of a massive waste of time for you so just watch someone else play them instead
>>730906385it's really weird that I've recently seen the same person and have come to the same conclusion.It's not much better in the sequel series, he encounters the bug that doesn't remove the detection radius from destroyed alert towers and he "installs a mod" to remove it.The only mod I've seen only works if you destroy the tower after the mod is installed, it isn't retroactive. He immediately attacks a group of enemies in a bizarre order, using the Armor shredding unit to kill an unarmored enemy and it "luckily" crits, the shots at the armored enemy not missing a single time despite being the questionable shot chancesTo anyone who has played these games more than once, his cheating is really obvious
this is a board for discussing video games, not youtube videos
>>730908853xcom is casual bullshit. you must be a insanely retarded soulbab to think its an autism sim.
>>730906525Being able to reload when XCom jank happens is too nice to pass up, I still remember units falling through the map in EU. Really I wouldn't recommend the in-game Ironman setting to anyone unless they were going for cheevos, better to just decide for yourself when it's appropriate to save or reload.
>>730907936>hurr I'm a newfagyes go back
>>730906385Cheating in sports, gaming, life, etc. historically is extremely beneficial and it hasn't been until recent years where its easily detected and even when caught the negative is seldom ever greater than the benefits. Hell look at Majorleague baseball, like all people in the hall of fame had taken PEDs.Reality is if you aren't blatantly cheating in front of everyone you aren't winning in life.
>>730909142It's the video game equivalent of shuffling a deck of cards and sorting it over and over. A mindless chore that only someone with autism OCD or a similar mental illness would play. Autism isn't a superpower it's a type of retardation.
Wow, this thread is dogshit.
