    Grand Theft Auto VI

    This is just Rockstar putting their jogger culture fetish up front.

    This guy did a series of videos with the NES final bosses. I was surprised by how many I recognized, but even more surprised by the games I hadn't seen before.

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    I tried out some more of these recently: Nordic Ashes, Elemental Survivors, and Keeper's Toll. Nordic Ashes seems pretty good so far, its the most recent so I'm not too deep into it. I feel like I'm a little too dependent on the special ability though. I did manage to unlock more characters...

    Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024)

    Not excited about this one. I already wasn't a Kong fan, but now this movie has gone full "Kangz with a pink Godzilla cameo".

    Just finished up Blasphemous 2, which was a pretty good follow-up to the first game. Of course it had some more of the same disturbing imagery, some brutal and some bizarre. The wax seed quest guy definitely gets an award for being seriously awkward. I've tried a little bit of Star Wars: Bounty...

    Man, what are they doing with Goblin Slayer? They skipped arcs and the whole Rhea Scout thing is still not dealt with. Are they planning another movie?

    Furiosa (2024)

    I don't like the fact that there's a movie without Max in it, but hopefully its still good.

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    I put the most hours into Rogue Genesia. So many options, challenges, and the game board progression path had me hooked.

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    I picked up Symmodance and its not bad for a cheapo. It kind of plays like it looks: you move a platform of tower defense turrets around an arena. It has a wide variety of options but so far it seems like 3 turrets is the max. I haven't felt completely overwhelmed, though. It seems like every...

    Finally finished up Steelrising last night, which is a Souls-like based during the French Revolution with some automatons kind of like Lies of P, but this came out years before. Its actually pretty good with some Metroidvania type backtracking and gadgetry. The combat isn't as complex as the...

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    If you make a guild from this forum, do it on a PVE server. Take the advice of someone who's been in this forum's guilds before. Most of the PVPers fuck off after the first two weeks to go play something else after they grind to max level and the PVE players carry the guild from there on to do...

    The Legend of Zelda

    This will be bad. Link is a notorious silent protagonist and they will likely have to give him lines, which will be awful.

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    I've been wrapped up in Souls-likes, so haven't been indulging in these lately. I didn't know what you guys were talking about with the sale because I saw nothing up about it, then while looking at a game there was a banner for it at the top. Nothing on the front page, though. I'll probably buy...

    I have had absolutely zero interest in anything from The Escapist other than Yahtzee's Zero Punctuation videos from time to time. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have even known they exist.

    A Haunting in Venice (2023)

    Not spectacular, but definitely better than the first two because it left out the woke interracial/racism bullshit. The first two movies were plagued with it and there was always some quip or instance thrown in about it. Everyone was racist except the interracial couples who were soooooo deeply...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Whew lad, finally wrapped this one up. It felt like it took forever, and I still have barely any idea wtf was going on. Pretty good game, and hopefully they keep tweaking it for improvements, but felt like it was a real time consumer.

    Salt and Sanctuary is on the playstation store for 89 cents. Its a solid 2-D Souls-like Metroidvania. The sequel isn't much to talk about, but the first one is good. https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP0613-CUSA02353_00-SALTNSANCTUARY00

    Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)

    Good movie, although I wonder where the series will go after the 2nd part. One thing I noticed with every close-up these guys do, is that some of them are definitely showing their age. Its probably smart they wrap it up now while they don't look geriatric as fuck like Harrison Ford trying to...

    Lords of the Fallen

    This game has its ups-and-downs but I'd say I'm having fun. Its different from Lies of P, which feels like a dueling/gentleman's type of combat by comparison. If Dark Souls was tennis, Lies of P would be like badminton, and Lords of the Fallen would be like racquetball. I feel as if rushing in...

    Lies of P (Souls-like)

    It feels like the cube is just their version of the Flask of Wondrous Physick from Elden Ring. I played around with it and it was pretty neat, but it feels like its more oriented towards helping the ghost buddy you can summon. And yeah, the consumables are really bananas in this game. The...

    I managed to crack into the game with Exterminator. Getting the well guy in the 2nd map is a definite game changer.

    Lies of P (Souls-like)

    You have to buy them from the vendor using the gold coin tree currency. Any in your storage will refresh the cube.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Keep an eye out for some of the indie games, too. Occasionally they have some sales that drop halfway decent indies down to like 2 bucks. Goblin Sword, Dungeons of Dreadrock, and Golf Story for example. You can also pick up some of the old school game collections that aren't included in...

    Fall 2023 Anime Thread

    Good to see Goblin Slayer skipped the whole Goblin's Crown arc instead of redoing it. They showed the samurai's team in the intro, so I wonder if they're going to have some of that story or just a flashback? Would be cool.

    I wonder what method they used and how high they leveled. If they weren't allowed to kill bosses and they had to get him to something like 100, that's definitely going to take some time even with the ball method or killing trash.

    I for one look forward to playing such Switch 2 day one exclusives like Dark Souls 2, Breath of the Wild HD, and Terraria.

    Lies of P (Souls-like)

    While they're nerfs, they're pretty warranted nerfs. The trash mob nerfs to hp, stagger, etc are reasonable. They'll improve gameplay even if it seems like they make things a little easier. There's some trash out there that are just damage sponges and it makes absolutely no sense for them to...

    Lies of P (Souls-like)

    Managed to beat this before gamepass updates to the nerf patch, so happy about that. Thrown items and the different status effects can really help on boss fights. Also, the maxed out puppet string arm is amazing.
