my favorite thing is when a game nails ambient sound. you'd think it wouldn't be too hard to make the outdoors sound like the outdoors but it's rarer than you'd think

they tried to simplify their setup this year (like by not having framemeisters and mostly using s-video when possible) but i get the impression it didn't help as much as they probably would have liked

I decided to buy it. It's actually very nice! About 3" by 3" so it's pretty substantial. The metal's a little thinner than I would have wanted, but it's about as heavy as it can get without you needing to worry about it weighing down the branches of your Christmas tree. There were a couple of nicks and marks from production not buffed out but that took a couple seconds to fix with a Dremel. 8/10 buy it if you want a Pikachu on your Christmas tree.

overwatch is a really bad and generic name for what that game is anyway, maybe blizzard realized that

Do I actually have to wait for this one person to come online to get into PBC/DKK or whichever linkshell it is

Also I'm having a weird latency issue, mostly during combat. Not sure what the cause is.

finally got a couple hours into Transistor and past the 2nd boss and the combat system is feeling hella clunky with the focus on the stop mode

shoulda kept it all realtime like Bastion

I've only gotten a bit past the first boss, but it seems that way too. I've just assumed that I am missing some core mechanic and that the gameplay really does not revolve around stop mode followed by 3 seconds of dodging until I can stop mode again, repeat forever

well that was an anti-climactic end to the super metroid race at agdq

one of the runners about 25 minutes in got one-shotted by a boss due to a fluke thing that can happen that causes 8x damage. due to how super metroid speedrunning works he hasn't saved so he'd have to start over from the beginning. :rip:

so now the last hour is just the other guy running a victory lap, pretty much
