Yeah, there is quite a bit to enjoy, so maybe just play royal until you aren’t having fun.

I could see an argument playing the shorter version was the better experience but the idea of playing both is nuts to me.

even as someone who played and enjoyed p5, i couldn’t get very far in Royal because…it’s the same game lol

(with more stuff). so yeah, i have no idea why anyone would ever recommend playing both beyond just being obsessed, i guess

Are you sure they weren’t talking about Strikers which actually is a sequel of sorts to P5?

Actually this was related to Strikers, somewhat, in that I’ve seen more than one person say ā€œStrikers ignores Royal and follows the base game, which you should play as well to get a better feel for it.ā€

I think I finally feel what people must feel when I tell them, look, you can skip AC1, but you should play the three AC2 games (Revelations is important for the denouement of both Ezio and Altair’s stories), but from there y-

Royal contains the whole base game though? I guess you miss out on Morgana forcing you to go to sleep a few more times in Vanilla

This is like playing Super Mario Bros on the Famicom before playing it on the NES. If it took 100 hours each time

People sure do love to not value their time.

Play what is rewarding (interesting, entertaining, calming, whatever), quit when it isn’t.

or people love assigning value to the exact thing they did

when thumper came out people kept comparing the music to something. something drums? or something like what. i’m trying to track it down because i dig the soundtrack

You probably already knew this; the obvious answer is Lightning Bolt, because Thumper was made by (in part) the bassist.

ETA: Gibson, the bassist, dammit.

Can’t remember if this was NES or GameBoy, but I remember a fishing game that involved moving your boat around a little lake; I remember the lake had areas with, like, lots of plants in the shallows and this ā€œdeepā€ area with that was like two square tiles of darker blue than the rest of the lake, and I wasn’t sure if that meant I should park my boat in those squares before casting, or if I should be next to the tiles and cast towards them, or what. Anybody know what game this could have been?

Legend of the river king ?

Edit: more likely Legend of the river king 2 actually

Entirely possible? I’ll see if I can confirm after I’m home.

Does anyone think it could be fun to watch two people play A Way Out in like a small group movie night kind of setting? I heard that game was entertaining, for many reasons, but I’m counting on some silly and awkward drama and digital games shenanigans. We might play that co-op survival horror game Obscure if not. Previous hits with this group were Until Dawn and Devotion.

yeah, i think so. if you are going into it ready for a silly time, you can definitely get that from it.
