Few questions:

1. So MGSV is somehow still alive enough to get released, despite, you know, Kojima having pussed out like a bitch?(#sarcasm)
2. Is the Oculus Rift either 1) ruining the eyes of thousands already, 2) Not living up to the hype (What hype was there?), 3) Going to suck as badly on XBONE as the Kinect did, or 4) all of the above?
3. Are there any earlier E3 threads of past years here?
4. How popular is Witcher 3 by now?

MGSV is going to be the best game of the decade

Decided to check out Soul Blazer because I heard the company that made it consisted mostly of ex-Falcom developers, so far it's pretty enjoyable.

I dunno what Falcom is but I love me that Soul Blazer "trilogy" (aforementioned, Illusion of Gaia, Terranigma). Soul Blazer was one of my favorite games ever as a child and I still think it's better than the other two. The gameplay is simple but fun and nothing drags on and on like its successors (especially Terranigma) tend to do with some plot segments.

Good game. Keep playing. Step on gumdrop cookies and restore the world. If you enjoy it now you probably will continue to do so. It's pretty consistent.

Soul Blazer is hella good, you're right about it being the best of the trilogy. Terranigma is really good but it turns into an unfun slog as soon as you reach the second world or whatever it was.

I think Illusion of Gaia was the best, although I do really love Soul Blazer. I'm still saving Terranigma (and the other Quintet games) for a rainy day. I have like 160 IoG screenshots that I like to post sometimes.

Illusion of Gaia is pretty good too, going into the dark space and turning into other things and catching fish to save your waifu. Actually one of the things that owned hard in the 90's is that a lot of games let you transform from a wimpy little human into better things, and every single one of those games was memorable even though without the transformation they would have been mediocre.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
So I opened up TWOM to discover it apparently only saves at the beginning of days and nights, and so Arica hadn't joined me yet, and this time the survivor knocking on my door was stupid fuckin' Anton, who turned out to be desperately ill, has eaten all my pills, and is lying in bed dying. I'm going to try and see if the hospital will take him tonight. Oh, and winter has hit. Lovely. Luckily I built a heater already so I can keep the house not freezing, but the firewood's gonna run out at some point.

On the bright side I sent Roman out to knife a bunch of bandits and steall all their poo poo, so I have a gun now and we got to upgrade a bunch of our stuff. If it wasn't for Anton taking up a bed and not contributing and the freezing cold, we'd actually be doing quite well.

I played it on classic and hard mode with no retrying battles because people said (rightfully) that the challenge and permanent character death made the game more tense, but towards the end I hosed up a couple of battles and lost most of my decent story characters and lost my drive to continue. Cool game though, almost makes you think that anime can be good.

I ended up playing in Lunatic/Casual because Hard/Casual and Normal/Classic were too easy and "anything harder than normal"/Classic is too frustrating without a "restart battle" option ingame.

ffv is a great game. i have spent years saying ffvi is the best ff game, but i was wrong, it is five.

ffvi has a way better story and characters, but v is more fun and has way more replay value. both are great, though.

Dark Souls 2 SOTFS is a lot more fun than I expected. I'm playing a dex + hex character so far and dex weapons are actually good now! I bought it mostly because I haven't played any of the DLC yet but the rearrangement of enemies makes it feel like a brand new Souls title in a lot of ways.

It owns, I can only imagine how I would have felt about it if I'd played it between 4 and 6 instead of more than 10 years after those came out.
