Not in Binary Domain. One character's behavior is affected by it. But there's like, ten different loving characters you can get friend ship with. So why not just give me a binary choice at some point earlier in the game that decided which of the two outcomes I get, rather than a useless friendship system that prevents the game from being one of the best co-op games ever, which it could have been!


That's retarded.

Hostages is like ultra proto tom clancy/modern tactical shooter game and actually pretty cool if you can find it anywhere

the first gameplay is a stealth mission where you have to sneak your guys into position against enemy patrols

then you have to clear the outside walls with snipers making sure to protect all the hostages

then its a proto 3rd person maze shooter where you clear the building floor by floor and accomplish the rescue!!!

biggest problem is just that thats it, the entire game, so you can do it all after like an hour or two of practice and then you have no real gameplay left except doing ita again on a harder difficulty

Maybe we can convince from to port it, so that true patriots can finally play the most American game ever made.

One time I went to an anime convention and the con was running a maid cafe that was just a sports bar with wallscrolls hanging over all the sports stuff and all the tvs playing anime instead of sports

idk what anime they played but it was some girl with a robot she invented and I guess she was his sister or something and then he's just like "man I can't believe I just found out I have so many sisters now....huh"

That was just how poo poo worked. Most games were balls hard to stop you from doing that.

Sonic 2 got a lot of poo poo when it first came out because people finished it in a couple of hours because it was so similar to the first game.

I never finished most of my Snes and Genesis library because I was bad at games and they were all hard. Also my Sonic 3 battery died so it never saved, which wouldn't matter much considering I got stuck on the barrel like everyone else. I was very consistent in getting to the 2 or 3rd to last level of a lot of games before finally running outta lives. Except Gunstar Heroes, which I actually beat multiple times, but it's not that hard of a game.

The Capcom Disney games were all fairly balanced though. Course it's Disney, but I actually saw the endings to those. It's a drat shame we didn't get Mickey and Donald 3 though, though at least it eventually came to GBA over here.

My current best is halfway through the third stage. Back when I started I never even thought I'd get that far.

Last stage is gonna be a nightmare though, for sure.

I Failed At Anime 2022

I haven't been able to bring myself to start playing Tales of Hearts R because I feel like it'll take hours to get to the actual beginning.

Bad memories from Tales of Graces f. Which I haven't beaten.

Which is another reason for my hesitation.

Tales of Hearts is relatively short and doesn't take long to get going, I don't think.

tales of hearts was originally a ds game, it gets going pretty quick.

that said, graces' problem is pretty unique to itself even among the console tales games.

Tales of Graces F was fun as hell, and despite how unimaginative the story was I really miss the hijinks of its cast.
