ori has a somber but hopeful tone for sure. theres definitely sadness through much of it. but in the end, new life.

the multiplayer survival games are typically the go to for that. conan, v rising, ark, etc.

Mauler, rags and Metal have a long talk on it. They kind of hate it. short version: $40 game that lasts 3hours, with no replay value. 90%walking, with multiple areas, segments done expressly to waste time. a couple bare bones puzzles. limited, terribly implemented fps elements...

the meat circus was famously bad. it wasn't the final, but the water escape of Ori that really pissed me off. the sudden shift into a forced vertical scrolling race. and it auto-saved so you were forced into this new playstyle until you beat it. its not insanely hard really. its just being...

ha. yeah, calamity was made back in what, 1.3.5? back before lots of summoner stuff was added to vanilla. they wanted to fill in gaps clearly. But summons are always 90% shit. either too slow, or grounded, or get stuck on walls, etc. And usually you only have 1choice at any tier, so have to...

Came back since realizing I hadn't finished that master run. ooph golem was giving me a hard time. took like 13 trys. granted, most were dry runs with no buffs to figure out which weapons were working best, and get patterns down. Finally got two kills in a row.. while 3rd with buffs still...

Everyone is clearly wrong about this. The Wizard/stranger is Saruman. Nori is Gandalf. Like the Doctor her first life was as a woman. Nori is going to die at somepoint and be reborn as Gandolf the Grey.

Giving this another shot. demo characters were wiped.. ugh.. char select is fun. it changes with act. I figured out clicking on the health/mana orbs directly displays health/mana as numbers. no option in the settings.. weird. Also, I was stumped on trait constellations in the demo.. I...

yeah, summoner is just weak really. iirc, the master world, started summoner, but really just kept falling back on magic to actually kill things. if you don't care about "class". and mix and match theres lots of powerful options at every level. Chlorophyte bow iirc is very strong. my...

checked my old worlds to see if I could figure out which setup I had for mech bosses. didnt quite figure it out. But did realize I appearently never finished the master world. Looks like I stopped on golem. iirc, I got sidetracked doing the dungeon defender stuff. I think i used flower of...

been a while, so Im not 100% on what the optimums strats are. iirc, eyes you did still want a decent long arena. 3-4 screens or so long at least. iirc, slime mount helps alot. can outright bounce on them to swap back. yes potions. regen, iron skin... fishing ones too though. endurance...

Tiny hitbox is cheating.

Finished it. No resolution at all. Just sequel bait, with no real hook in the first place. I can't recommend this to anyone at all for any reason.

here's ACG's thoughts on Scorn. tl/dr. its an atmospheric walking sim. very niche. free on gamepass.

ep7 almost had an interesting twist. but, then just gave it up for a dream sequence. ep8. so far is the best. cult stuff taking off. Natsuki, gives the best "ghost story". show does a great job of making it personal as well. Technically all the stories are. Something I hadn't mentioned...

very much yes. It gets mentioned alot when discussing gorey movies etc. But, its not like Martyrs, Hostile, Terrifier, etc. which are just gore porn. Bone tomahawk is first and foremost a Western. But then, its a Western crossed with "the hills have eyes". Great actors. Great filmwork.

episode 4 is the Christian girl apologizing to the gay dude for being Christian. and being really bad about it. she compares AAAAAIDDDS, to Herpes in her terrible apology story.

I thought the complaints were going to be overblown on the voice acting. After watching the trailer... they were underblown. check out the french version.

well sortof. Summoner was always the weakest and least fleshed out. (theres 4 playstyles, melee, ranged, magic, and summon.) they've added new summons every path for like the last 4 patches to help. its fun... but weak even still. Melee was always best for trash. knockback, no ammo, phasing...

you know, I never messed around with the special seeds. I just considered them easteregg/goofs. not full on new gamemodes, or calamity style reworks. guess I should.

Classless. It combines Wolcen and PoE for skills more or less. you get skill gems/runes. instead of going in your gear, they go in a hex based rune inventory. You then play tetris with your skill runes, as the runes have "links" of various colors facing in 6 directions. Can reroll color...

yeah, trying this. Seems pretty decent. Stole ALOT of ideas from PoE with some interesting reworks of them.. seems like its going to turn into full korean mmo by the end though. worried about that.

Don't have marvel, so didn't watch. but just watched the trailer. My thoughts on that. yeah. had no idea what I was clicking on, so was surprised at "elsa bloodstone" at first. Did also think the actress/outfits looked too much like Jessica jones. ha. Universal throwback is a bad idea imho...

the more I play this one, the less I like it. It doesn't understand the concept of monster waves. they just spawn nonstop constantly. even during bosses.

looked at the "what you are playing" thread, to see the discussion. and checked out Rogue:genesia demo. that one is looking real good to me. it solves a few problems. one, it uses the slay the spire map system. so, you have that overworld map progression, with monster, chest, gold, event, etc...

yeah, there's so many copycats now. some have good ideas, some have bad. I'm not sure which is best. I like this ones dodge. This one can be hard to see. giving the enemies aoe's and projectiles is a bad idea. I have nomad survivors too. That one has skill evolutions which is nice. skills...

I'm on episode 3 so far. out of 10.. ugh. This is a slog. 50min episodes, of which like 35 are devoted to the wraparound story of the cancer kids, who telling the stories. only 15 min on the actual scary stories being told. Its SLOW and boring. its just sad most of the time. The main...

does recently, include the newest update? https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1129580/view/3320866312891157224 looking.. oct 6. oh. yesterday. did think it was last week or so. ha. so probably not.

well, lets come up with a better term, and popularize it. The issue: firstly, theres Roguelike, and Rogue-lite. roguelike originally meant games like rogue. so, specifically rng perma-death proc gen dungeon crawls. I'd be more ok with "roguelike" if it kept to that more specifically...

Laura bailey and marisha ray don't exist to be nice on the eyes for you!

he was making fun of you, because yes it was a joke.

its still on Gamepass too.

I clapped when I saw they replaced actual choreographed fight scenes with physics-less CGI Daredevil props. It was so beautiful.

so, someone watched Fatman, and thought. me too, but without Mel Gibson.

if you missed it, they also released a "post release" plans article. https://www.taleworlds.com/en/News/512

getting closer. 1.9 https://www.taleworlds.com/en/News/513 added more town/castles visuals. more horse types. Settlement Actions (Town, Village, Castle and Hideout) Replaced the old tavern mercenaries with three new mercenary troop trees (Western Mercenaries, Eastern Mercenaries and Sword...

I lost alot of people at first having a hard time with the work assignments. the "enable" idle workers button is super unintuitive. I have no idea which one is active still... is it on or off when its yellow? A house=1 family. 1 family is the numbers up top on the right, and you assign...

You're going to kill some body!

This has a temporary demo on steam some may wish to check out. through the 10th. https://manorlords.com/ (dev makes a joke about a demo for an EA game in the opening menu.) Right now, its just an early town building demo. Pretty solid opening however. This city builder will stand out in...

what a weird post. I was agreeing with Ossai. Basically following through his hypothetical. have you seen Jupiters legacy, or read the comic? The comic has a "now" storyline issues 1-3, with some major plothooks. Then goes back to the prequel of the older characters origins, which lead up...
