I am I assume nearing the end of stage 6 in God Hand and I am pretty sure that I’ve had the option of spanking every single female I’ve come across (and avoiding doing so actively makes the game harder) except for my female companion who I believe solely exists to be on all fours with the camera aimed right at her behind. Maybe there is a lady hostage or two I am forgetting.
Basically I wish the game had a bit more chill.
finished salt and sanctuary. i like it, but the map turns into a spaghetti mess by endgame which kinda sucks. not much sense of space, levels are just platforms hanging around. enjoyed it because i’m a dark souls fucker and i love to dodge and whack things with greatswords. the offering system is cool but underutilized, and there wasn’t enough ways to manipulate drop rates for item grinding. i beat the last 5 bosses first try, so it had a pretty weird difficulty curve.
Gave Bloodstained a run and either I don’t like how it controls or there is something wrong with my controller and the game. Like input lag? or is it supposed to feel that lurching and weighty. also swear it drops jump inputs. And I don’t like how long of the cooldown before I can do anything on the weapons. Like I said it feels wrong and maybe that is on me.
I’m switching between it and Ori and Timespinner so having a real Search Action time. I like Timespinner the most I think. It has given me minimal “fun coming soon” and I could skip meeting all the fun villagers that were immediately killed by the evil empire. The so far minimal puzzles have been pleasant and mostly about freezing time where I can use an enemy as a platform. And it doesn’t always telegraph now is the time to do it. After 5 minutes I was playing the game and moving the plot along and that was pleasant.
Yeah, finally got around to Brigador in the fall and really dug how it tends to make you put more thought into how/when you start fights, but at the same time encourages aggressiveness given how overshield works and you basically need to keep killing shit to keep you maximum durability up.
Probably my biggest issue with it is that you have separate control options for mechs/tanks and agravs, but I think tanks need to have their own option too because of how incoming damage is based on the hull facing and the slower turn speeds means being able to back up immediately or retreat with your front armor at the enemy is really damned handy and I get annoyed switching the controls back and forth.
It is, and in a way this is pretty in line with its clear main referent point, but being in 3d Unreal and such feels really wrong. It takes a while to feel right, and usually that is because you figure out which weapons work best with it and which items help you move faster and such. But it’s weird!
im about halfway through shining force and its PROMOTION TIME. the way ive always played is i promote as soon as i get a weapon i cant use, but some people swear up and down to wait til 20 for max stats
but like
the game isnt that hard, i don’t really have to freak out about being strong enough at all
ALSO I HATE WAITING TO COSTUME CHANGE
zylos post promotion attack sucks ass though. his normal attack was a bad ass dive bomb. he cuts your face with a vega claw! but now he just summons what looks like tissue paper flying sideways. IM GONNA GET RID OF HIM AS SOON AS I GET A NEW CHARACTER HMPH
Progress Bar 95 is maybe my favorite mobile time-waster
It is with a heavy heart that I must confirm my own fears - I’ve probably played as much Assassin’s Creed as any person can possibly handle.
I still have both sets of Odyssey DLC to knock out and scads of missions and map markers untouched, but goddamn there’s only so much of the same things over and over one can take.
This might be the last one for me.
Ah well! Dang!
bloodstained has a huge delay on further inputs if you whiff an attack, almost non-existant when you hit an enemy with an attack. An easy thing I’ve found to just attack faster is neutral jump -> attack right before landing -> immediately attack again after landing
not really necessary for the game because its so easy but it feels more satisfying for me
I think 90% of my equipment choices were based around improving attack speed
STAR WARS GALAXIES had an ENTIRE PROFESSION called IMAGE DESIGNER
SWG is still the game that solved all the problems by introducing a whole host of new problems and I’ll never stop loving it
SWG is the only good MMO by virtue of it secretly being a MUD
sorry if there’s not an involved system for making every part of a shoe THAT DOESNT GIVE ANY EXP its not a mud
my new computer can run dark souls really well, so i’m finally doing those randomizers that are all the rage
Had a real good time with Timespinner. It’s a two world Search Action game with a “go back in time and kill Hitler OR Julius Ceasar point to it.” It has two? Gay relationships.
It also has trans representation that is maybe the one sore spot of the thing. A quest reward is a woman going btw I used to be a man and was conscripted in the army and then got out and found myself.
Playing this the same time as Bloodstained I had a laugh that both games featured backer portraits.
But I liked the game’s small scope. I liked macro and micro story. I liked the verb set and when it chooses to expand it. It would only put “fun coming soon” right next to a boss fight where afterwards you would get the “fun” starting with the ledge grapple was good. Afte the first 20 minutes you really never use your TIME abilities again.
It gets a tenouttaten from me.
da-da-da-double post.
Ori can bite me. Immediately after getting the double jump it gave me this ability to fling myself with the right analog with lanterns, projectiles, and enemies. If I fling with a projectile it flies off in the opposite direction. It then gave me a long vertical room where I was to keep re-directing a projectile so it can destroy a wall with a pittering splat. A combination of stresstful, boring, and the knowing payoff of it was going to be making me do this at least 5 more times if not in this area than in the rest of the game. After failing once I went “no. no.” and uninstalled.
People really like Ori for some reason and I will never know why.
It’s really easy to like the first 10 minutes for sure.
I feel like it’s the end goal all those Flash animators/game developers were working toward back in the early 00’s, at least aesthetically.
I had assumed it was just a DeviantArt Miyazaki tribute that had somehow attained videogame form and thus everyone bought on every platform but nobody played
