Yeah but the game's ungenerous checkpoints made it hard to enjoy having to redo a whole section because I tried to eat my Alpha-bits during a boring talky part.

Fantastic.

At least goofy scenes like this one make it all worth it!

It's not a ghost, but probably a 'living corpse'. The 'living dead' with a hell of a lot of bloodlust...
I don't think anyone in the world hits the F or V keys with their thumb.

very important when the prompt for f + v appears to keep your thumb one button away on the space bar and instead rotate your hand around awkwardly to hit them

You will learn to hate X and C even more as the game goes on. I think I died to every single X+C prompt that appeared in a cutscene in my let's play of the game

edit: RE5 is somehow even worse because their 'alternate button prompt' buttons are F+V. At least with X+C you can just move your A/D fingers down and hit it, you have to rotate your whole wrist in RE5 which is ridiculous.

That's what you get for playing a console game with a keyboard.

Did you play RE5 with a controller? That game's aiming feels so, so bad. It feels bad with the mouse too because they add this lovely artificial sway, but at least with the mouse you don't have a locked aiming speed.

Thanks, I'm also reading about the Bulletstorm remaster which is the best news from the entire show to me. That they're adding optional Duke Nukem as a protagonist complete with full voice-acting is pretty great too as at times Bulletstorm had levels that could totally be put into DNF from an alternate reality where it was a good game.

I'm hopeful that this remaster shows a renewed interest in a game and we'll get a worthy sequel in the future.

It's one of the best FPSes ever made, highly underrated. It does require you to give all the tools the game throws at you a shot though, if you play it like a modern shooter ducking from cover to cover then you'll have a bad time.

I think that Run The Jewels performance they had on the show may have hosed with the stream because it's the only musical performance they didn't re-upload in a separate video and the main video has all it's audio muted at the moment.

So like oops.

What's everybody else up to this morning?
