Expedition 33, Verso talks Monoco into coming with them to Old Lumiere.

As an adult with a job and a family, that’s about all I have time to play to the finish per year

SASQUATCH IS SOMETHING I HAVEN’T SEEN BEFORE

Oh no I’m not ready I haven’t finished CO:E33 yet

Agree on all points. Act 1 was the best. Your reward for playing all the way through is you get to play Act 1 again, as a full-fledged game of its own.

Ah yes, the era of US box art so ugly the mind reeled wondering how it ever got approved. Look at the US and JP cover art for Mega Man for one of the most iconic examples in a target-rich environment.

As an owner of every PlayStation console since the PS1, I am unhappy with the selection of PS5 games this late in the lifespan of the console. So unhappy that for the first time ever, I consider it unlikely that I will want to buy the next generation console. I’ve played more new releases on my Steam Deck since its release than I have on the PS5 since its release. And that’s coming from someone with a full-time job and a family. I count myself lucky if I can play an hour a day, and the PS5’s game release schedule was too sparse for me.

Nah, it’s a legit good and demanding game

It’s Zalgo text

Try finger but hole

Lots of good lines in that show.

Xathras have hard life. Probably have hard death. But at least that way, there’s symmetry.

Once the avalanche has started, it is too late for the pebbles to vote.

Wow, that comic really fails to entertain in any way!

Yeah, for me it’s partly aesthetic preference but also I’m not inserting myself into the game. I’m controlling the character, not pretending I am the character.

Play a female character in an arcade game. Specifically the one in Golden Axe.

Plus a properly made one is fucking delicious

Yeah, agree. I don’t see many LLM results but I can’t say I never see any.

For context I played the first one on NES when it came out. I liked how the different games each felt imaginative and a little different yet familiar due to certain common themes. I liked the games where the battles felt more tactical, like X, XII, and of course Tactics. I really like the setting of Ivalice, couldn’t say why but the setting is just appealing. I don’t like the turn the series has taken lately. XVI was a shallow action game and an even shallower RPG with paper-thin characters acting out a superficial imitation of A Game Of Thrones. I was way more invested in the character arcs of the cast of characters in VI than in the forgettable cast of XVI.

As I said, mileage may vary 😄

Mileage may vary; I read the first one and found it to be an absolute slog and a snooze. No interest in reading on.
