What does linear mean? :rofl2:
a video game with linear gameplay will confront a player with a fixed sequence of challenges: every player faces every challenge and has to overcome them in the same order. A nonlinear game will allow greater player freedom than a linear game.

It's supposed to be linear, it's the final challenge. I'm not really sure how I feel about it. The level itself was fine and decently challenging, though there were a few annoying parts... but it gives you so much HP. You get 6hp at the start, 6hp at the Sphinx and then 6hp at the Bowser parts, plus some individual hearts scattered around. Compare that to 3D World where you got 2hp for the entire level, or maybe 3 if you brought a powerup from another level (I don't quite remember what getting hit did to powerup state in that game). Parts of it are just completely tankable.

For me, the hardest part was the part where you have to capture the lava bubble. I kept hitting the edge of the hole you jump out of. I could have one-shotted it if it weren't for that and the fork sections

It was a lot of fun and a good challenge except for that one part where you capture the bird and you had to go up the moving planks. I could get through the rest of it without a single hit and when I got to that bird part I fell into the void every time.

Yup, it sends you back to the beginning no matter what part your on iirc.

Yeah, I figured that out the hard way. Also, there's a couple parts that are pretty frustrating if you haven't mastered some of the different capture moves yet
Particularly using the bird to scale walls, capturing the forks very quickly when flinging from one fork to another, using the lava bubbles, and using Yoshi's tongue on walls

    smokey flavor that reminds me of beef jerkey on top of a really rich kind of bbq sauce. Heat level that is a nice zing, not overwhelming, but it tingles all the way down your throat

    We all should have free health, dental, vision care, and make the college kids pay for the schooling, f that college forgiveness plan our govt doing now, its really not fair for all others in the past that had to pay for they're schooling anyways (like me, with 2 kids I paid to send to college in the past)

    @Sicklyboy - the comparison would be forgiving all medical debt, not making healthcare illegal!
  • cearp @ cearp:
    Although I still don't agree, medical debt is rarely a choice, whereas enrolling in university is certainly a choice

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    College costs, college loans, book prices, the entire thing is predatory, oft touted as essential to a successful life for my generation and the ones since, and completely unaffordable without putting you through an insane financial hardship for literal decades in many situations.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Many of the same issues can be seen for the insanely predatory healthcare and health insurance system in the US
  • mthrnite @ mthrnite:
    ^this
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    It's important for society to be healthy and educated. If those things can't happen because all of the institutions that prop up those industries make it unattainable for all but a small portion of society, then your society is largely going to be disease ridden, dying, and uneducated in very short order.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Issue is it's too rich of a coperation already with bad sugar diets causing diabetes and killing teeth a new set of teeth around 90k
  • cearp @ cearp:
    I agree it's not easy for the average American, let alone the ones below that average. Free / cheaper healthcare is much more important I think than free university education.
    Of course like @mthrnite said, why not both. But I doubt both will get solved at once, and surely healthcare is top priority.

    If it's needed to keep you healthy it shouldn't cost you $90k. The fact that it does is an enormous problem
