ESG investing brah. Big studios really don't have any shortage of money and no longer have to worry about making actual hits. Smaller studios are just emulating the bigger ones, but can't take the hits, so they'll be the first to roll it back.

Started playing Armored Core 1. Yeah, the first one (AKA the only one you can actually buy digitally for some reason). I played it through once before, in 2010, but it was with a physical CD and a lot of the music was bugged (didn't play). This time it's digital (on PS3) and all of the music is...

Yeah, VaatiVidya has done so much for the Souls games and Fromsoft in general. From helping people understand the stories and lore to just generally expanding the scope of these games with his content. I don't watch him much at all, but I appreciate his work and he deserves all the Youtube...

I have no idea but I doubt it. The Switch versions are worth getting just to be able to play these on the go. I got them on PS5 because I wanted those 100% platinums and that was a big part of the recent playthrough for a bunch of us here, but for normal non-autistic folks I'd definitely go with...

Yeah, I can second this. I started at the beginning a couple weeks ago and just finished the latest one, and they're worth a listen for anyone who hasn't. You can pick out the ones about servers you were on first, but soon you'll go back and listen to the ones you weren't as well because there's...

You're missing out. I went back and watched Juno just to see what Ellen Page was spending so much time banging. Wow this movie is annoying. I'm sure 15 years ago it was a good time but now everything about it is just obnoxious to me. All quirky and shit and quietly legitimizing adults flirting...

Goldberg's gonna be at All In, motherfuckers I guess Goldberg and Wardlow is gonna be a one-on-one thing after all rather than a tag (not at this show)

Ryan Nemeth's gonna end up taking off for greener pastures and actually getting used correctly in NXT, much like Pillman probably is. Guy deserves a lot better. Dolph Ziggler's better-looking brother who is a bump machine, and has nothing to do at every show, sitting backstage like a jackass...

Obscure bullet hell game few people have ever heard of: Judgement Silversword for the Wonderswan Color. Get yourself Mednafen emulator and give it a shot. WSC is a very underrated system we never got here. Judgement Silversword is probably the hardest vertical shooter I've ever played and later...

Emerald Weapon might work in an FF6 setting, due to Aire Tam Storm being a 9999 AOE (yeah, I know it can be gimped by unequipping all your materia, but where's the fun in that). A fight like that in FF6 would require the player to make judicious use of Life 3 to recover. Combine that with 1M HP...

It's a mech game, and if it's an improvement on the old ones (especially 4th gen) it might be the best mech game evar. People love mechs. It's also the first AC in almost exactly ten years. AC games also offer incredibly deep levels of customization, have interesting future settings, and...

Why are game journalists hating on this game? Watched Razorfist's video about it and I still don't get it. Is it really because they want it to be more censored? I can't imagine a Baldur's Gate would be the height of gender/racial insensitivity. Does it show a boob? Are the female characters...

So wait, this is Modern Warfare 3 the sequel to Modern Warfare 1 and 2, NOT Modern Warfare 3 Remastered which they never did for some reason after Modern Warfare 1 and 2 Remastered? I think they have the same showrunners as Lords of the Fallen

What's the degenerative arthritis like? I get frequent pains between the shoulderblades (upper thoracic) that are annoying as hell, and sometimes I get lower-down pains (lower thoracic) that basically locks up my entire spine. The lower pains happen if I sleep too flat and the upper pains happen...

It says something that the richest guy in the world (on paper) and also one of the busiest people in the world, when he has time to game, reaches for Elden Ring.

Oh yeah, that's L5/S1, the same one I got (well the worse of the two). They told me they didn't have to go from the front, just that it would be "easier" if they did. Speaking from experience, them going in through the front fucking sucks and I wish I could go back and do it over again. Had a...

An older guy I knew once told me "youth is wasted on the young". A couple years later he died of cancer and I started to understand what he meant. Fast forward about 15 years and I really understand what he meant. My latest health problem: Cold sweats. I'm tired all the time and the cold sweats...

I've gone through this before. What do you mean by "had a discectomy on in 17 is back 26th"? You had a discectomy in 2017? What's 26? Which level is it on, lumbar/thoracic/cervical? I'm guessing lumbar if sitting in chairs is an issue with sciatica. Fusion is very likely going to be needed...

What a ridiculous monstrosity. It looks like the Genesis is on life support. Nope, SNES never had add-ons like this. They kept mining more and more power out of the base system. It's amazing the visual difference between stuff like FF4 in 1991 versus Chrono Trigger and Treasure Hunter G in...

Not in FFV! I wish FFVI had superbosses. The closest thing is Siegfried in the Coliseum. FFVI Advance at least adds a few postgame bosses but none are what I'd consider "super". The Kaiser Dragon is the last and biggest boss, and apparently it was a cut boss from the original FFVI so that's...

I just recently played Mortal Shell and it was a pretty sub-par Souls. Scratched an itch though and was short enough to not really be any sacrifice to play. I can tolerate a lot of sub-par when it comes to this genre. As for LOTF, probably just wait for the new one since apparently there's no...

You should be able to port anything on PS4 onto PS5. With reduced loading times to boot. PS3 games are stuck on that system, but are also account-bound so if you got another PS3 and signed in they should be available for download (unless they changed it) As for the rest yeah they're probably...

Fippy and Vulak also confirmed kronolord free

Yeah, I assumed it was a debatable topic and that the paintings didn't definitively depict dinosaurs, given how worn-down most cave paintings of advanced age are. Dinosaur-like creatures appearing in worn-down paintings is believable enough, though they could have been interim species of things...

I bet PS5 is going to get discounted even more this holiday season, wouldn't be surprised to see it for $350 at some retailers. Price is gonna come down a lot in advance of the PS5 Pro if it's getting dropped on us next year. Personally I think the base PS5 is so powerful that we don't even...

Thought the same thing right after I typed it LOL I bet this'll end up turning into a rare day one buy for me. Is the original, uh, Lords of the Fallen (LOTF Zero?) worth checking out before that?

Interesting post, but remember, as @Frenzic learned recently everyone on here makes six to seven figures and scoffs at such minor amounts as making $7k in a month from playing.

Yeah, power gaming can kinda rob you of some enjoyment. I tend to do it more with replays, or when I just want to knock something out quick. It is fun to completely break Bloodborne with a gun build after having trouble with it in the past.

Yeah but this is like... bro. If you click to a random point in the video showing gameplay and don't know what it is, you'd think they announced a Bloodborne 2.

My unofficial list of countries with the most likelihood of having super-advanced tech beyond what we have that no one knows about: 3. Russia 2. China 1. Israel Russia I'm sure has better stuff than we're aware of, by a likely mild margin, because why show their hand? "Super-advanced", though...

@Tide27 He said NES bruv Yeah for real. Not having a family helps a lot with having time to check out so many things I missed when I was younger, but I'd trade one for the other easily if I could go back and do it over again. Crystalis holds up from everything I've heard. There's a GBC...

What do you think about the theories that some dinosaurs stuck around WAY longer than the rest of them? I heard there's early human artwork showing dinosaurs, which would seem to be impossible. If modern humans have been around for 200k years, then maybe just maybe the last few dinosaurs existed...

The thing about Bigfoot is that there are HUUUUGE areas that people barely even go into. The U.S. has a few, central Australia, some of Siberia, central Asia, north Africa all have large areas with just like...nothing in them human-wise. The champ is no doubt Canada though. Massive swathes of...

So this is basically Bloodborne + Souls 2. Looks like an actual next-gen (current now) Souls game though and we haven't really gotten one of those that wasn't a remake or port. Probably gonna be a must-play. I am wondering how Fromsoft isn't suing everybody at this point though...

Looking at a few screenshots, they look like Fire Emblem + traditional RPG. Not sure if that's correct I'm convinced that when it came to RPGs at least, Sega Genesis had way less than SNES did, but what it did have punched above their weight for sure.

Nope, just a lot of Youtube clickbait pretending there was. AFAIK, haven't really checked lately. A lot of people thought the DLC would be out by the end of this year, or on the anniversary early next year, but now I'm hearing some "Q4 2024" stuff. I really doubt that and Fromsoft keeps things...

Oh man, as a kid I always heard about Shining Force and Phantasy Star being things I'd like, but I didn't have a Genesis. Eventually did get one years out of era and played Phantasy Star 4 which was incredible, then the first three (had to emulate the first game of course). Never got around to...

Except the NWO/Power Structure doesn't NEED to "play their last card". And if they did, it wouldn't be this, it'd be the "climate emergency". These people on Reddit are talking like the Power Structure is on the ropes right now or something. No, they're doing exceedingly well, probably than...

This month I finally finished Ghost of Tsushima, then blasted through Mortal Shell. The world's shortest Souls game. Attempt #6 or so to get into Uncharted 4 fell flat and I put it down again. Kind of funny how I powered through Uncharted 1-3 in like a couple weeks back in 2015, just loved the...
