You might - Shenmue is just a lot more laid back than Yakuza. Instead of the hustle and bustle of Kabukicho you’ve got much larger area and stuff is more spread out, you spend more time just walking around, there’s relatively a lot less fighting and the mini-games are yes, more sedate.

Wow, remember these from being a kid - often these were just inflicted on us, like Computer Who Wore Tennis Shoes was shown at school during an assembly for some reason I can’t remember. I fell asleep.

Probably not - I figure MTV is rich greasy old bastard Boomers with GenX managers telling Millenials what to do to market to Gen Z

I know it’s overdone, but... OK, Boomers seems perfect for this one.

I think this is going to be impossible to enjoy unless you’ve already played Shenmue and Shenmue 2 - in which case you already know what you’re in for.

This is some bad game design. If you’re only going to allow a single save game (or even if you allow multiple saves, some guy will just use one of them), always allow restarting the mission or even mission select.

It only lasting for 50 pisses (pees? pissii?) makes it dead on arrival.

Thanks, Juul.

Anthem needs a Naoki Yoshida to do what he did for FF14 Reborn.

“Most of Anthem’s biggest systems—its mission structure, its loot, its world—will change drastically, but the developers have not yet figured out exactly what that will look like.”

Then I might give it a shot - if it’s only monthly subscription cost then I don’t really lose anything when it shuts down.

So most of these are ‘This crossplatform game is also coming to XBox’, which is nice, but not thrilling, but...

They must be doing one of their staggered rollouts.

I never signed up, but was able to install both:

They already are at independent coffee shops.  Though they’re self-inflicted.

We’re gonna need Firefighter Geralt to put out that four star Fahey burn.

That Stadia Founders Pass is looking better and better, huh?

Dogg I cannot brook the gossamer bloatee

First thought: Oh it’s just Kojima being Kojima, I doubt he had any intent.

The worst thing is that any insurance company that spends a ton on ads is doing it because they’re shitty insurance companies with terrible payouts that have to keep advertising to pull in new suckers.
