I've previously said that I could never find any video game to be worth the $70 price tag, but sexy naked men in the woods is making a pretty compelling argument.

I've finished it, and am into the post game stuff. I ran into a few bugs, including one that could have ruined my save by getting me stuck outside the map, which I resolved by turning on the game's t...

The phase of "everything is an isekai now" chasing after SAO is definitely something that turned me off from anime. Due in part to the extreme contempt I feel for SAO. I think the "turn Asuna into a ...

I think I've moved into the "maybe I don't like anime anymore" phase myself. I think the only two shows I watched the past 5-10 years have been JoJo before it went to Netflix, and a handful of episod...

I've barely touched the 20 or so demos I picked up, but I did get around to Sticky Business, which is just a cute little thing about owning a small online sticker sheet printing business. Spirit Swap ...

Eh. Maybe they just aren't going to host it in LA next year. Maybe they'll force everybody to fly into Georgia again.

Unfortunately, it appears that Pop. Love. Panic! The OFK Story has changed its name back to We Are OFK.

Penny's Big Breakaway looks rad. I'm interested in seeing what the Sonic Mania team does with that. More so than the new Sonic game. I just don't like the whole interruption of "2D in 3D" aesthetic. I...

I was into the demo right up until the end where things take a turn for the brutal. Maybe I've just grown soft in my old age, but that stuff really isn't what I'm looking for in my entertainment nowa...

@sparky_buzzsaw: "Oof! That sucks!" is going to be the title of the tell-all book about the story of Overwatch whenever that comes out.

@sparky_buzzsaw: They were always planning to charge money for the story content. They've just gone from what I presume would have been one big mode that you'd only pay for once, to this scaled back t...

Blizzard has dropped news that the new story content will require you to purchase a $15 bundle, that comes with $10 worth of currency and a skin.It would appear that they've not only scaled the story ...

Junpei's VO has pretty much been kicked out of the industry for being a sexual predator, so there's a least one positive in a re-cast.

Eh. I can't really get excited about remakes these days. I don't need a Persona 3 that looks like Persona 5. It'd be nice if they fixed the transphobic beach scene, but I don't have much faith in Atl...

@spacemanspiff00: Oh okay. I wasn't sure of I was missing a parry or something. I've never been much of a block and parry guy in Souls games. My success rate with that stuff in any game is never very ...

The blocking confuses me. Is the perfectly timed block the parry? Cause it doesn't really seem to me like I'm parrying attacks with it. At least visually. The only way I can really tell if I did it r...

@spacemanspiff00: Yeah. I missed the grinder. I didn't catch it until I started over on a second playthrough. I think I just assumed is was a consumable the first time and ignored it. I also tried to ...

I also just beat the first boss. Feel pretty much the same way. It's a good looking game. Clearly taking from Bloodborne. The mechanics aren't all the way there, but none of these Souls-likes ever are...

@jstaunton: I have no idea which of the dozen things from two months ago you are replying to.

@bigsocrates: I don't know. I like Recore more than someone probably should, but that game felt like it very specifically was abandoned. I'm not saying they completely gave up on putting out any singl...
