If you must blink, do it now.
I enjoyed the original Odin Sphere - button mashy framerates and all - so the prospect of playing a tuned-up version with actually involved combat mechanics sounds like my bag.

Gonna wait for a (Black Friday?) price drop though cause $60 is a bit much to pay for a game I technically already own.

They didn't just improve the combat, they redesigned everything. Like it's two completely different games with the same story and characters, it's really crazy

A friend alerted me to a utility that can fully uninstall programs, freeing those remnants from my registry and allowing me to have a full Sims 3 experience once more.

Maybe there is hope. :unsmith:

Bloodbourne is cool, the quickdash is so much better and it's oddly nice that they just removed my usual options to cheese Souls games.

I spent the day after the election plowing through rhythm heaven megamix and daydrinking with my radically liberal gay best friend who is going to halt her coming out of the closet because she is terrified of the future of minorities in this country.

I enjoyed Axiom Verge for a while but the bosses get really terrible and exploring becomes really not fun, even after you get the cool traversal abilities. I really wanted to like that game but it just becomes sort of bad as it goes.
Yep. I like the look and feel of the game but have no real desire to go back at this point. The story was also hot garbage. Conversely I went through AM2R a second time almost immediately after finishing it, that will absolutely go down as one of my personal GOTY contenders.

Nah, just the same name, completely unrelated and likely unintentional on the dev's part to use that name

Well with the combat it isn't just a simple overhaul. All the characters play completely differently and can combo for days with ease, they now have skill trees full of spells and abilities and hot key assignment for ease of use of said spells and abilities. The crafting system has been completely overhauled to be much easier and friendlier as has the restaurants, that are now at every checkpoint instead of the one local, though the one local still exists and just takes money instead of ingredients. The graphics have been completely HDafied with wide screen, sharper looks on everything and a (mostly) silky smooth 60fps framerate (the game can hitch a bit when things get really crazy). They also added new areas and new bosses as well as optional challenges where you fight multiple bosses at once. There's probably more but as mentioned it really is a complete overhaul.

So is there a hard cutoff age for knowing or caring about Pokemon? It was my everything as a kid, but I'm listening to an animation episode of We Hate Movies where they're talking about an episode from the show and they barely even know that it was a game first, and only have the slightest inkling of what a Pokeman even is. The WHM guys are only about 5 years older than me, 32 or 33, but they're completely ignorant about something I'd always assumed had fully entered the collective unconsciousness.

I just got it on GOG since it's a little cheaper converting from $ to € at the moment. I'll play it tonight after training.
