the Nightmare Before Christmas parts of Kingdom Hearts are also good non-scary fun.

Why she didn’t stream porn onto her green-screen dinosaur, I don’t know. haha.

Preorder retroactively canceled!

I kid. I never play Mercs >_>

Womby!

Something I really liked in Insidious was when the movie could have easily spent half an hour on the “nobody believes the wife weird things are happening,” the husband basically says “I don’t claim to understand everything going on, but if you don’t want to live here, we’ll move.” It made the whole movie feel more…

That’s fair. I should have been more specific, tho. I was thinking of satire via gameplay. Just making a game grindy and unpleasant as a satire of video games isn’t, imo, effective.

I think satire is typically enjoyable (to me) tho, even when it’s uncomfortable, but I get your point. I do think the more challenging it…

you beat Plague Tale in 4 hours your first try? I find that... suspicious.
 
However, I agree with your sentiment. Plague Tale was the right length, and if it’s really 3x longer, I find it will wear out its ratty welcome.

All I can see is an article that it will take 15-18 hours, and the original was 10-12 hours (for…

Yeah, The Missing and even D4 really set me up for Deadly Premonition 2 and that was a pretty big disappointment as well. It probably helped me enjoy TGL since it wasn’t as bad as DP2. lol.

Curious why you hard disagree on the other point tho.

Plague Tale 2 is on GamePass? The first one was so good I’m almost going to feel bad not paying for the sequel. Almost. They made the choice, so they must think it’s in their best interests.
 I’ll probably double dip when it’s cheap on PS5. The first was plenty fun on replay.

People talk more about how Sable looks than how it plays, so in the meantime, read some Mobius comic books.

The Good Life was heartbreaking to me, as someone who bought the original Deadly Premonition at launch, and been a Swery fan since. The Good Life, however, is just... not that good. I really liked the main story,…

Peterson never fails to make me think of this image (apologies to Mr Brockman).

(edit: not letting me upload a picture, so here’s a link:

I’m referring to this specific bit: “The other proposes that no such thing is going on, and that the problem may be irritated nerves telling our brains we’re in pain even though the muscle itself is fine.”

Sometimes when I get these, there’s a definite harder section to the muscle that other people can feel as well, so it’s not just a brain interpretation. Is this something different from what you’d call a ‘muscle knot’? 

Haha. Yeah, Jackass was my favourite character. :D

Oh man, the credit sequence is gonna be brutal.

I look forward to seeing a show about Pedro Pascal escorting a Very Important Youth through hostile territory.

I hear you. I feel the same way (tho I’m using Hero Replica right now). There is some kind of joy in getting splatted 8 times, and still winning the match because the other team isn’t doing the objective, but they’re still not particularly fun matches.
 I’m sure the Katana will be very appropriate in some of the ranked…

Crunch aside, even with a reasonable schedule, games usually don’t really all come together until the final 6 (or, usually, 3) months... Getting all the art finalized, the lighting applied, and all the code optimizations that let things actually run.
 and on a game with massive crunch, it’s still the last 3 months,…
