    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Surprised we haven't gotten any news whatsoever on FF7R-2 this year. Or FF16. Or FF10-3. Yeah, FF10-3 was strongly rumored for a while, and the creators of 10 even said they wanted to do it. Or FF9 Remake (with WOFF graphics). Or Chrono Cross Remastered. I mean 2022 better bring us some...

    I'm not too much of a cheevo-whore...unless I REALLY like the game. Like Souls and Bioshock for example I've got plats across the serieses. I'll probably do the same with Code Vein because it's close enough. I'll say this too, the rare times I DO go for a plat and don't quite get it, it bothers...

    There we go, that's everything I got this year and haven't beaten (besides Terminator)...not counting the 10-15 digital games. Jesus.

    I'm down. I'm no hardcore achievement hunter, but I do have a massive backlog thanks to how much I bought in 2021. I was planning on clearing it out once I had more free time but I lacked motivation until I got into the thread. Here's what I cleared out from what I got at the beginning of the...

    Definitely knock off Bloodstained. It drives me nuts when I get to the final boss of a game and leave it unfinished. Did that with Metroid Dread for weeks. I left off on the final "battle" of Five Nights at Freddy's 5 and I'm tempted to take a run at it this week. All I have left is the final...

    Yeah, I've pretty much taken a break today (and worked hard on RL things all day instead). I actually advise against AC Valhalla. It's a massive time-sponge and never gets particularly interesting. That's a problem the recent "open world" ACs have had. AC Origins (the Egypt one) was much longer...

    I dunno, I think he'd be able to have a 3-way with Tifa and Aerith more easily. Have you seen how they look at each other in this remake? Aerith is super gay for Tifa and they have more chemistry than either of them does with Cloud. He could probably wiggle into the middle of it though. Jessie...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yeh, my droughts have generally been after a girl fucked me up. After things ended with the first GF, I went back to school and didn't even go on a date for over a year because I was pining for the relationship. What cured me: Saw her at a wedding and she was super-rude to me, I immediately lost...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    My first GF (at like age 23) was also a rich snobby cheerleader type that wanted to fix me. She didn't understand why I liked playing video games and wanted me to spend that time on other things. We mainly bonded because we both took martial arts. She had amazing legs (most martial arts...

    LOL my bad, I was in a pretty bad mood today after Dishonored 2 whooped my ass for a couple hours, so I was probably reading things all wrong. Still though, no joke, everything I'm playing at the moment pisses me off in one way or another so I'm wondering if I'm even into games right now.

    Dishonored 2

    I finished D1 and I'm on chapter 6 (of 9) in D2. Unfortunately I haven't enjoyed D2 much at all. D1 was alright but even that one didn't get my motor running as much as I expected. I find D2's level design to be kind of obnoxious, and I'm playing as Emily so no damage-plasmids to blast enemies...

    Just pick one, give it a few hours, if it doesn't tickle your fancy then sell it and pick another one. Focusing on one is the way to go. Out of that list I'd go with Horizon or Yakuza myself. I found Cyberpunk and Farcry to not be worth the (massive) time required. Control has a super shitty map...

    Gotta say, I'm learning lately that maybe I'm not that much of a gamer anymore. I'm not enjoying half the games I'm playing, and I've discovered that there's a reason some of these were backlogged to begin with. They just aren't that enjoyable to me, and got shelved. At least I have no issues...

    Wow, that's legitimately horrifying. I was just playing the new Terminator Resistance DLC and it's got some scary moments early on with T-600s stalking you in hallways while you're unarmed. Got me thinking about how rare it is for games to actually scare me. Well, this does it

    Been bouncing around this weekend. Dishonored 2 - Man, this game is annoying. It's got all the tools to be great, but the level design sucks. Every time I turn around there's some new obstacle that doesn't make much sense and slows me way down. Chapter 4 took forever to get through because I...

    Hook = Ratings. No, seriously. AEW's main missing demographic is young women. Who got young women to flock to WWF en masse in 1999, significantly boosting their ratings? Edge and the Hardy Boys. Hook's got that same appeal with young women. Up to this point no one else in AEW really has...

    Yeah I thought Page/Danielson went too long. I watched it with a friend who said at the outset that it'd go longer than 30 minutes. I said no way, Omega/Bryan went 30 minutes so Hangman has to beat Bryan faster than that to show his superiority to Omega. Well, I was wrong. The match did feel way...

    Dishonored 2

    I have that same "uncomfortable" issue with every Arkane game I try to play. For example, Prey seemed designed for me to like it, but I quickly gave up on it and returned it because something just felt off about the whole thing. I've been bouncing between Dishonored 1 and 2 this week and...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    I buy them so that I can steamroll them with my buddies. We were the first group on Phinny to beat the last six or so expansions and #2 in TOL (because we took it a little easier and another group led by the most beast SK on the server passed us). The launches are fun times.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I was also completely invisible in jr high. Wanted a GF really bad and honestly expected one to fall in my lap. None did. Though I did a lot better in HS and late teens at being noticed by girls, I was still completely inept and managed to make all of it go absolutely nowhere. Funniest thing...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I member in High School when FF7 came out, seemed like everybody was playing it. A day after launch, when everyone was still in Midgar, one guy was parked outside Midgar and had all his characters at like level 30 with level 3 magic (Firaga etc) unlocked already. I guess he just stopped and...

    I started this earlier this evening when I needed a break from Dishonored. It looks pretty incredible visually and I like how the PS5 controller gets utilized to full effect. I can't wait to play some more in a couple days. I probably wouldn't even be playing this any time soon if it weren't for...

    After Dishonored 1 and 2 (if I'm able to beat them, that is, cause I'm still dying constantly) here are other things I could potentially try to clear out. I kinda want to "finish off" some of my old systems. Games I have that I never finished, by system: Super NES: Legend of the Mystical Ninja...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    I miss the old spell effects, and how they'd change forms at a couple points (level 20 and 45, I think?) The shielding spells trailing from the hands was great, and the undead-slaying spells looked incredible compared to how meager they are now. Playing a Necro again on Mischief launch was...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I made around 12% of a year's salary in one trade earlier this year. It was VET, IIRC, after it shot up that first time and was super hot. That's my personal best trade. Unfortunately that, along with a majority of my crypto profits in general, are up in the air with the current market because I...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    That's legitimately how I feel when I have excess money to go around. Like I wouldn't mind the current numbers so much if I were sitting on a pile of extra money and could buy some more. Unfortunately it's December, the absolute worst month for having any major amount of extra money.

    A few hours into Dishonored and I'm liking it, but my initial assessment of "Bioshock if it were a regular game" is holding up. It really does feel like it wants to be Bioshock, but it's too simplistic for that. It also reminds me a bit of Assassin's Creed. So it's like a Bioshock/AC hybrid...

    Sylvando is a pretty cool dude IMO. He is the logical extension of the "Goof-Off" class introduced in DQ3 that continued with Taloon in DQ4 and the Gadabout in DQ6/7. It makes sense that the ultimate form of that type of character would be a flamboyant guy dressed as a peacock. His character arc...

    Update: While figuring out my next game, I tried Cadence of Hyrule, quickly realized why I haven't gotten into it sooner. I'm no good with rhythm-based games and this one is on the tedious side unless you're really into it. You don't even play as Link, you play as some new girl who looks like...
