iirc, tokyo jungle was the result of some sony initiative of hiring people with no game development background to be directors

There’s a pretty cool box puzzle game that I can’t remember the name of that’s floating around in Dreams. The throwing physics are a little wonky, but the secrets and alternate paths are way beyond what I’d imagine someone could whip up in a week or two (sorry, dev folks, I know nothing about game dev, I know game jams crank stuff out like this in a pinch!)

The little robot guy you play as has a solid trot to his movement, too.

every time someone mentions this i am going to have abrupt flashbacks to Sonic Dreams Collection, I’ve accepted there is nothing i can do about this

i started playing Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate about a week ago. its probably the first musou game ive played seriously and i really like it. im finding that these games arent as simplistic as people have made them out to be? even though that isnt really a point against them either, like EDF is basically my platonic ideal of a videogame and its along very similar lines. the weapon fusion system is a cool thing to fuck around with after every battle, i like having to keep my eye out for more powerful weapons and better affixes so i can make my extremely overpowered guys even more powerful. im really enjoying the combat, all the combos are pretty easy to wrap your head around but most characters have immensely satisfying ones! lu bu has this fucking sick combo where he carves his way thru a crowd, grabs an enemy like the fucking undertaker and then slams him into the ground so hard he explodes!! you have 3 characters in your crew at a time and you can do all kinds of switch attacks and if your bond between officers is high enough your other dudes will come in to help you if youre getting airjuggled and shit. overall theres a lot more going on in this game than 99% of people who talk about musou to me led me to believe. theres a nonsense plot about demons and time travel! you can inexplicably wander into stages from dead or alive 5 and encounter ninja gaiden characters. joan of arc gave me a lottery ticket for some reason! its fucking sick as hell!!

for a $30 piece of software it feels pretty extraordinary

I am better at computer than I am at sustained creative work and even I am massively chuffed

is it pretentious if I call my level cremaster 6

The movement on this character is fantastic.

Talking about a way to ā€œsellā€ a dream as its own separate product, is probably a bit far ahead of the curve. I mean, of course its really easy to think about. But I"m sure that Media Molecule is not yet prepared for managing something like that. There will probably be thousands of new dreams started, daily. They would have to come up with some sort of process to upvote a particular dream, to be granted the right to be sold, or something. And then the creator may have to campaign on social media, to make sure they get those votes.

and then what? is a vote quota simply enough? or is MM then going to make a personal review of the game to determine if they think its good enough?

I dunno man, but for now, Dreams seems pretty awesome. I thought LBP was awesome. This is transcendent.

Why the heck am I playing the missing? After seeing Swery RT ever person that praises it and finding absolutely nothing on SB I guess I got more curious than the trailers led me to be.

This game is real clunk clunk clunk and predominately a woman screaming or crying blasting out of my TV speakers thanks video game! I certainly do believe everyone has the right to be who they are. Now drop the honkey writing and how desperately you want to make something like David Lynch by copying him.

I think with a good look at myself I can say no payoff is worth this.

EDIT: Looked up the plot. Yeah this isn’t worth directly torturing a woman for hours to solve puzzles.


In games I liked I played through Wailing Heights and if you need a heavily UK halloween-ish adventure game that is about 3 hours long it is there for that niche. Not as good as the greats and you should certainly play the greats first, but if you had that itch.

a few months ago, a friend came by and we wanted to have a game night, so i bought The Missing and uhh yeah, i think it sucks. we got stuck at one part for about an hour because the mechanics of the game are so obtuse that me, person who plays game all the time and a lot, and them, person who teaches game design at NYU, could not figure out what the fuck the game wanted us to do.

I have a real good rate of buying games on switch that I get negative enjoyment out of.

Despite my PC version of Dragon’s Dogma having no pop up and a very late game save file, I think I’m dedicated to playing through it on the Switch. Maybe I won’t fuck up that treasure room in the catacombs this time…

NieR: Automata - Become as Gods Edition is on sale on the XBox store, so i picked it up. feels nice to be replaying this game again, even though i played it to death already. the enhanced visuals are a nice touch.
