    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Which game is that from? Did they ever show / tell you what the megastructures were? Even if not, it's pretty crazy how many interesting lore-only worlds there were in ME1 and 2. Just an incredible couple of games with a lot of imagination. I feel like imagination is lacking in a lot of newer...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    That tower defense level late in the game, try as I might, I couldn't seem to do much about the suicide drone swarm near the end. Using quad shotguns probably didn't help there, but yeah, even when I tried it with 2x gatliings most of them still got through no matter what.

    Dark Souls

    I've got nothing to do for the next 2 and a half days and got this crazy urge to try a level 1 playthrough of a From game. Never tried anything like that before and they say Souls 1 is the easiest From game to attempt an SL1 run. Any advice? Suggested weapons / rings / spells etc? All I know...

    GBA is super easy to emulate too. There's a ton of untapped gold on that system for me because I pretty much missed that era. Doubt I'll ever get around to it but every time I turn around I find out about some GBA great that I totally missed. Kaiser Dragon is a fun fight and it's interesting to...

    Was just wondering that. For a second I thought they'd planned an FF6 3D after FF4 3D and that was the art before it was scrapped. Then wondered how I never heard about this. Then noticed at least two of the screenshots on the back are from the Dissidia games. So yeah I guess this one is just...

    From a dialogue and art standpoint you can probably go Advance version pretty safely. For anyone wondering, best versions IMO: FF1 - PSP (Dawn of Souls HD, basically) FF2 - PSP FF3 - Pixel Remaster FF4 - PSP FF5 - Advance FF6 - Advance This gives you the copious amounts of extra content in...

    I could definitely see Kohlingen to Darill's Tomb being one of the 3-split late WoB scenarios. The airship gets grounded late in WoB for a while, and I could see it getting shredded during the Espers Unleashed or even the FC rising. So Setzer having to get them a new airship while other...

    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    Doesn't this start with Before Crisis? I'm guessing Matt is one of the Turks in that game. IIRC the game is about the Turks. I really have no idea what to expect from this. So far I played long enough to get to the tutorial fight. I'm not surprised they blow their wad with Cloud vs Sephiroth...

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    Is Judge Death supernatural? Cause from what I've seen it looks pretty damn supernatural and yeah they kind of avoided that tone in this movie. (Aside from psychics existing, which is more of a radiation thing) Still count me in on wanting to see Judge Death, if only because he's Dredd's...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    I fought . So on a replay I'd need to do the first one. I'm pretty sure I'm just gonna do the one run for now though so I wanted to fight both potential end bosses. Then again an NG+ would probably be really fast...

    Lords of the Fallen

    Went and finished this up, I guess I left off like 90% of the way through on my initial run. The path to Annihilator was so confusing and irritating that I shelved it for a month. Somehow figured it out when I started again. Turns out that was the second to last area. Game was pretty easy, and...

    So it isn't the straight Compilation of FF7 remake/reimagining I was hoping for, but also isn't the straight-battle FFRK style game I'd also accept... it's some weird middle ground.

    That's all pretty interesting. Few things fascinate me like cut or modified SNES RPGs and their "original scope". FF6 makes a lot more sense now that I know it was episodic and stitched together. I think it's plausible that after Atma Weapon, the game could have gone into the Kefka Pillar...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Finished the game. Good time, probably gonna be the best mech game on PS5 for a while. I finished it with quad legs and gatling/songbird or quad shotguns depending on the mission. Either seemed to work for crushing the endgame but I think 4x shotguns was best against bosses. Got both endings...

    The WoB is better, and for a long time I didn't even play it. Reading about the game in Nintendo Power as a teenager, WoR seemed like "the cool part" where all the action was. Then when I rented it, all the save files were in WoR. So I'd pretty much just pick up and play those. Also started a...

    So was the final boss going to be Emperor Gestahl? Up until the end of the Floating Continent he was pretty much the main antagonist and Kefka was just his stooge, half comic relief and half serious foe. Also wondering if the Floating Continent would have been a lot bigger under this scenario...

    Looks like the "Elite ran Punk off just like they ran Cody off!" canard has made a return. This means the Elite are Mind Flayers who had the power to manipulate Punk into getting into another fight and then go scream at TK in his locker room. Not sure how many times Cody has to debunk that he...

    Thanks for the correction, I can't keep these companies straight and I haven't spent much time looking at the WWE merger situation. If Endeavor is hands-off, then I don't think there's much chance Punk ends up in WWE. Like I said before, about 7 out of 8 main eventers there don't like him...

    How do you buy a 3rd and 4th of a particular weapon? It's only letting me buy two total of any particular weapon, one for each hand. I've got two Haldemans and two Zimmermans and switching between those. Yeah lasers are a bit too much trouble, with EN shortfalls and energy spec. I've got a...

    They've been talking about doing an FFX-3 for an insanely long time. Well, Kingdom Hearts 3 also took a really long time IIRC. Never played any of those but I remember a lot of "we're never getting KH3" talk. There was still more story to tell with FFX-3 so I'm fine with them doing it. Feels...

    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    This right here is why I stopped playing the game. Never seen a game have so much "difficulty bloat" for lack of a better term. Edit: Ever Crisis is out today? Anyone else playing it? Had no idea it was gonna be out this soon. Been needing a phone game since I'm rarely home so this is perfect...

    Yeah I don't think I could do the "S rank all missions" thing. Sounds way too time-consuming. I was doing replays for all the stages up until Balteus and I only got a couple S-ranks in that time before I just couldn't be arsed with it anymore. The rest of the plat looks pretty doable, shame...

    Wat what? I'm saying that WWE is under new ownership and Vince/HHH no longer have final say, and that a large part of why Punk wasn't let go by AEW sooner is that a higher power (Warner Bros) wanted him on-board. I think Bullet Club Gold is intended to be a big deal, like possibly top stable...

    I defeated the last possible foe in the Arena and didn't get the Master of Arena trophy. It must expand the list in NG+ or something along those lines. Anyone going for the platinum? Sounds like @Zaide might be. I tend to plat From games but I'm not sure about this one, depends on how...

    JRPGs

    Yeah I heard good things about SMT4. Sounds like 4 and 5 are probably the best QOL ones. I tried out 1 and 2 on the Super Famicom and they're ROUGH. They do that super-early 3D thing where you're moving down nondescript single-color hallways one block at a time in four directions. Was hoping...

    I didn't know you could spare anyone either. I've been chewing through most of the bosses in seconds, then occasionally finding a boss where I die like 10x trying to figure out what to do. Ice Worm was a particularly annoying one until I realized I had to equip the rail gun (and then it was...

    Aside from the Bucks-bashing I totally agree. Those guys aren't everyone's cup of tea and it's fine. But yeah, Collision really is the best wrestling show on TV right now and Punk just threw all that away. He also threw away roughly $25 million that was remaining on his contract if merch sales...

    Far as a potential lawsuit goes, when Punk signed some NDA forms about Brawl Out a year ago, he also signed forms saying that he'd be terminated if he did...well...any of the things he's done lately that caused him to be terminated. So he doesn't have a case. Seeing a lot of people dumping on...

    Got a whole day to myself here so I'm playing this. I'm midway through chapter 3 now, about 12 hours on the clock. Is chapter 3 the last one? Saw a few online guides that end with it. The percentage on the home screen indicates that there might be five chapters. And at the rate I'm going I'll...

    Probably the very reason he doesn't respect TK. The fight itself was minor from what I heard (outside of TK feeling unsafe which is a pretty huge detail) but it's like, just kind of straw #58 and it brought everyone out of the woodwork to talk about how much Punk is bringing everything down. I...

    "It's okay to be a jackass literally almost nobody at the company wants to work with anymore, as long as you're a bigger star and make more money" Also Punk's merchandise numbers and general needle-moving has been extremely low. Not sure how this rumor got started that Punk is dominating the...

    Doing that would have opened AEW up to a huge lawsuit, and made them the bad guys in this whole thing. Of course, Punk's fanbase pretends that already, but last thing anyone needs to do is give them an actual legitimate grievance. Also it puts MJF in danger against Punk, who may be a joke in UFC...

    Yeah the Miro stuff was just rumors and innuendo. From what I've heard though almost all of the other main eventers didn't want to work with Punk anymore. Not really anywhere else to go with him at this point. And about 75% of WWE's main eventers don't want him there either. Also guy created...

    I'm using the Pile Driver left hand for melee and a bazooka main hand with two Songbirds, seems to annihilate everything. Tried shotgun, but it just doesn't have the range. Finished Chapter 2 this afternoon, I'll do more later this week.

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    Not really, but also you don't need to. The game gives you plenty of money just from going through the story, and you can sell parts for 100% of the buying price so you aren't punished for experimenting. Balteus was the hardest fight so far (and for a while after this from what I'm reading) but...

    Made a flying HK-Tank, this is awesome. Balteus is absolutely whooping me now. I keep getting him to about 40% health and then losing once he starts unleashing fire sword attacks. I could stay way back, but I have to be in close to have any chance of dishing out major damage during the 1 second...

    Whose idea was it to make the first boss stupid hard? Same thing Wo Long did, where nothing after said first boss is remotely as hard for a while.

    That's what I meant, I should have used more words. Port and/or cross-gen have been the order of the day so far. Demon's Souls is the only true current gen Souls at this point in time so we sorely need another one. LOTF and Wukong next year look like they're both gonna meet that demand though.

    The Source has a lot of different versions. One cut of the movie has Anna explaining the plot of the movie and WTF just happened right after the final fight ends, which is pretty comical. It's hilarious bad. The villain is totally over the top, even by Highlander standards. Connor starts out...

    Adam Cole is kind of hit-or-miss for me. On one hand he and I are the exact same size, which isn't exactly imposing. He's got charisma for sure but his matches often aren't super interesting. He also had to be in Kenny Omega's shadow for a while. To the average casual viewer he doesn't look like...
