Definitely miss some stuff since I cancelled Extra, but even then it was mainly things I already owned and was just using it to be lazy and not have to get the disc out. Worst part is that unlike MS, Sony can't seem to figure out how to let you switch a game from digital to physical without deleting the whole thing and reinstalling/patching.

Tried for like an hour, didn't even make it to the trans scene.

Every cut scene has giant heads and bug eyes, it's like Team America.

Been watching "Shepard plays..." It's just the kind of edgy humor I need when the board doesn't move fast enough here. Probably helps it's the Mass Effect crew.

Studio was almost certainly a full on trainwreck. imagine starting a dev studio, and thinking "studio mission" and "culture" are the most important things to put on your website.

At this point I think the minimum baseline for every company's "mission statement" should be the following;

"We made a functioning product. Please play it!"

God damn I miss the childhood memory of the Rareware sticker of approval. Even if I didn't enjoy the style of game or what it had to offer, it still had some level of quality control that I could trust.

Hell, Donkey Kong 64 is a fuckin nightmare to navigate, but at least I know the shit has been tested, more than I can say for most games these days.

I'm a big fan of Dragon Age.. or was, before Veilshit came out. That's basically how you kill a popular game series.

Women like to fuck with men and see what they can get away with. It's a humiliation ritual.

Finally got around to trying this. Actually not bad. Technically it is quite good. The engine, art, UI, etc. are all proficiently done.

It is not too far off from Dragon Age Inquisition where you have a central hub, do missions, upgrade companions, etc. The combat is definitely better and more responsive than Inquistion. But not quite a souls-like game.

This tech team but with vastly better writing and art direction could have made something on par with BG3. TBH it is technically better than BG3 engine, but characters, writing, etc. vastly inferior.

Anyway, worth it on deep sale. 👍
