I would also recommend Code Vein to people who like the Soulslike formula and also like anime. The game’s got a few problems, but I enjoyed the hell out of it. It’s also not too difficult as the entire game was designed around having an NPC follow you around (who you can dismiss if you wanna ramp up difficulty), and…

Was coming to the comments to recommend Nioh 1 and 2. Those games play a lot like “What if Dark Souls had some fighting game DNA in it?”

Anyone else hate how the forward and back buttons on these slideshows change position now? As if we needed more reason to dislike list posts...

You know what I’d like to see in Halo? Gun Game from CoD. It’s a really dumb but fun time, and I think it’d be super fun with all the weapon variety that Halo has.

Ah, thanks for the info! I guess I’ll just play something else then until Bungie comes to their senses (if ever), haha.

Hey, that’s me! This article made me go, “I should reinstall Destiny 2 and see what’s up...” but comments reminding me that the vault is a thing make me second guess that.

Oddly enough I am excited for it, but I wonder if I’d be MORE excited if these Star Wars properties just had some damned room to breathe lol

I remember the GTA manuals also came with a map of the city! At least they did for GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas.

Tip from me: Don’t be afraid to look things up. YMMV with this one, but in my opinion and experience, it doesn’t detract from the game to look up a build that someone else made and work towards replicating it. Or look up a list of all spells in the game and say “OH that looks super cool, how do I get that?” Or same…

Was it God of War on PS4? I remember hating that for a while but they patched it after a few months.

Man! Game manuals. The last cool game manual I remember getting was out of my Halo 2 steelbook collector’s edition. It had controls, sure, but also it had weapons, enemies, vehicles, and even tips on how to play multiplayer! They used to put effort into manuals...but alas, manuals cost money to design and print, so…

Yeah I’ve been an AssCreed apologist for a decade now, but we’re gettng too much too fast. It’s like Star Wars. I liked the movies. Okay now we’re getting a neat spinoff or two...Oh! Clone Wars is great! The new trilogy is okay (YMMV)... The Mandelorian is great! Then we get to Boba Fett, and I feel like it should be…

I’m really enjoying Slow Loop, though it’s not anything particularly special. It’s your standard “cute girls doing cute things with X theme” formula, with the theme being fishing this time. There’s some nice moments where they ask and answer questions around “What does it mean to be a family?” but they never go too…

Haha yeah, no big deal! There are a couple of fake PvP scenarios here and there, and there’s usually a bit of side story with it. Fortunately Elden Ring only allows real PvP when you opt into it. It’s a change I really like from previous Souls games, where it could happen any time you had “humanity” (an old mechanic…

Schreier: What made you and the team decide to make a sequel to Breath of the Wild as opposed to a new Zelda game?

The same thing happened to me and that wasn’t a PvP scenario, that was an AI “invader”. Was part of the story. At least it was in my game.

Yoshi-P’s got a lot of good faith from his players and a good head on his shoulders. It could just be me, but I’m thinking there’s a pretty good chance that Squeenix’s President asked/forced him to start breaking the ice on it, and that Yoshida himself has no actual interest in NFTs.

I was just thinking that lol. It’s like they did the storyboard with voiceover and then someone just said “Wait, this is great. Just color it in!”

I didn’t mean to say it’s an afterthought. More that I bet they didn’t spend a whole 3.5 years porting it. 

The female characters in this game also have a REALLY bad case of “comic book spine”. But at least my character has pants!
