so, the combat is the best it’s ever been... but we’re calling this the worst game in the series cuz story?

“the very prologue switches between grim tragedy and black comedy in a way that feels entirely accidental and that dissonance continues throughout.

Nailed it, the Bayonetta series has always had a ridiculously bad storyline.  They are known for her hypersexuality, brutal difficulty and tight as a drum combat.  I am hoping to find a deal on a non OLED Switch for Black Friday just so I can get Bayonetta 3 lol.  My buddy has a switch but he moved back home after his…

Maybe she’s polyamorous and bisexual? Don’t kink shame!

This is actually the most mature and adult storylines of the Tales franchise, a series known for being cringe and a bit too earnest but that’s part of the charm

Arise is great tho

Steam Deck should be powerful enough to handle emulating a Gamecube.

I absolutely loved Tales of Arise. Also loved Tales of Berseria their game before Arise. So maybe I just like the more modern Tales game best.

60 fps kind of makes me queasy sometimes (I can usually get used to it after maybe ten minutes or so, though) so when i can I’ll often lock down the framerate to 45 or 30 anyways. It IS really weird that the original ran at 60 fps and this one doesn’t, though, especially since it honestly doesn’t look like that much…

I think it could be a perfect lighthearted and focused balance to what I imagine Cyberpunk 2077 will offer. For that reason is why I got this :). Also, I can play this during the day when the kids are around, and dive into CP2077 when night rolls in and the kids go to bed :).

So I ended up buying this after our little twitter exchange and it’s so great! Fahey can suck it.

Charging up Hephaistos’s Hammer, letting an enemy rush you, and hitting them right as they attack is never not going to be incredibly satisfying (and it also absolutely destroys everything, I’ve taken out multiple legendary beasts while being severely underpowered thanks to it alone, don’t sleep on it).

Also, the whole…

that actually sounds really fun! like those moments in anime where the bad guy gets sent flying through a wall after a big punch . 

Yeah! It’s a smaller, more focused (And over the top) take on the Ubi open world game. I like it alot 

This game looks a bit more focused and fun than the average Ubi open-world. After Origins I was pretty burnt out on the bloated Assassin’s Creed games, this might be the milder more fantastical version that I’m looking for. After I clear out some back log(ha!).

I’ve only played the Stadia demo, but absolutely yeeting every enemy I came across was my favorite part. I actually intentionally avoided using my bow just so I had more opportunities to yeet.

Interesting, though I have found myself disagreeing with Destructoid on some games. At the least most LRG stuff goes up in value so if I do hate it I could probably sell it down the line.

There are two parts the New York Palace: the regular hotel, which is for the commoners, and “The Towers,” which are three-floor penthouses. This happened about 20 years ago, and at the time they were the most expensive hotel accommodations in NYC — more than the Plaza or the St. Regis. I remember that half a…

I really want to give James Marsden a big hug, because with the exception of Westworld, he’s made some truly baffling career decisions for an actor who’s always so likeable.

I’ve played every major (and many, many minor) platformers since the first Super Mario Bros. at the local bowling alley and arcade back in the 83 or 84. With that in mind, I can honestly say Super Lucky’s Tale — I played it on the Xbox One X — is one of my favorite 3D platformers ever. There - I said it. And yes, I…
