“The Next Castlevania Game” YES?! “Is Coming To Phones” ...no.

This is the god’s honest truth. My Steam library is chock full of games I wouldn’t have bought on my own, but did when it was in a Humble bundle. I’ve discovered some interesting gems that way.

Well, I don’t want to be too spoilery, but the Magic DPS role quest line had a fairly decent explanation for how people could slip between worlds (intentionally, accidentally, or by antagonistic force) in a way other than WoL’s go-between.

Only Dark Knights have massive swords like that and we hold them up with the sheer force of our masterful Edging of the Lords.

Oh don’t worry, it’s only going to bite the asses of the numerous employees of the company who don’t actually have a say in how the company practices their heroin dealing. The Sachler family will probably be just fine, because we can’t have nice things.

I panicked for a second and thought Discord Nitro was a game developer/publisher who was pulling their games from stores. I was like “Wait, do I own any of their games? Should I download them before they disappear?!”

Yeah, it seems odd to me to complain about it being “just more Borderlands.” Like, that was the draw? Borderlands was a fairly unique loot-based, shooty, RPG-ish game that did not (and mostly has not) had an equivalent since the first game aside from other entries in the series itself? That’s its whole shtick?”

Good lord, I’m in the same boat as you. All of my friends are getting married or having babies or both and they’re a bit on the richer side, so all those assholes want to have bullshit destination weddings and expect gifts. I love them to death, but they’re killing me.

Why yes, I’ll take one of everything in the Atlus booth and all those Monster Rancher keychains. Please allow me to empty my wallet.

Or making random things up entirely, like Tallahassee Trail.

Frankly, I’m disappointed a Tribble joke wasn’t the top comment.

I mean, if I have to be honest... I’m really only here at all for Honeybee Inn?

I was going to say that this is an oddly specific anchor crush, but then I remembered that I was thirsty for Marvin Zindler in my pre-teen and teen years, so... so there’s that.

I once saw a comic comparing creative works to cakes. A baker puts his cake, a single-layer cake, on the table next to this multi-layer massively decorated cake. The baker thinks “Oh no, that guy’s cake is better than mine” and walks away. Then along comes a person and he’s like “Oh yeessssss, TWO CAKES!” and eats…

Same. I’d like to play that game and watch the Netflix series, please.

What RPG has the best music? The answer is simple: It’s Chrono Cross, and nothing else has ever come close.

I had to google to confirm which of those are the “real” names, because all of them looked completely made up...

I wish I had this problem. All the things I want desperately have been delayed to 2020. Yesterday brought the final blow in my hopeful optimism’s coffin... Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicle Remastered.

Previous games by Spiders have handled quite a few social issues, though not well simply for lack of... I’m not sure how to describe it. In Technomancer I saw where they were going when trying to talk about things like exploitation of labor, discrimination, and the plight of the outsider, but it was handled clumsily…
