I'm interested in it but I'm not particularly rushing out to buy it. I find the concept less interesting than ICO/SotC.

This is how I feel, though I think the concept means I'm going to feel more ~emotions~ about it than I did in ICO. I'm definitely going to get it at some point but I'm not in any way hyped.

An old internet friend of mine did a subcomic on bob and george that he hand-drew most of the sprites for it himself. It was nearly 15 years ago, but I remember it being pretty decent, and I can't remember the guy's name but he had a ferret for an avatar. Don't remember what it was called, but it told a story following the games in order. I remember it being way better than anything else on that site.


yo if you still talk to disgruntledferret tell him I thought his webcomic was good

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
I don't give a flip about The Last Guardian. Yeah, I said it.

But if it has a song like the save couch theme from Ico someone should post it.

There is no couch music because the game just autosaves. The soundtrack is pretty amazing though.

I dunno, I loved the teams other two games as in their two of my favorite games so I was still pretty hype. The creature in this is just such a big lovable goof that I'm finding it pretty much impossible not to be loving this so far.

Gonna download it when I get home because it seems right up my alley. I've wanted some turn-based tactics stealth for a while and I'm a sucker for anything with even a veneer of cyberpunk.

Pro tip for Invisible Inc: Keep an eye out for weapons and upgrades that have an armor piercing quality. You can develop a great strategy for the first few stages and have it all go to poo poo when some guard with 1 point of armor is an unstoppable juggernaut.

Also: Peek, open, peek. Never not worth it.

Also also: Don't make characters into all-rounders. It's okay to have a bruiser who's computer illiterate. The exception is Speed (or whatever governs movement); it's good on anyone for at least a point or two.

Finally, the original Knack also received some flak for its storytelling — Knack’s dialogue in particular. For Knack 2, Sony Japan Studio has brought Marianne Krawczyk, the BAFTA award-winning writer of the God of War series, onboard to write the script.

For some reason, up until about a month ago, I thought TLG was a nintendo exclusive. So I had never paid any attention to it assuming it would never be on a platform I had. So when I realized it was not that at all and that it was on PS4, which is my platform, I didn't have any preexisting hype at all.

Not being hyped for a big release is fine. There is no law saying that you have to be hyped for a game others are hyped for. Still, just sort of stating that you don't think a game looks interesting doesn't really add much to the conversation and often just comes across as making GBS threads on others enthusiasm

Oh yeah. I'm actually happy that I'm not hype. It's extremely my poo poo, but I certainly can't afford another game right now.

The thing I think that is oddly neat about The Last Guardian so far is that, though it's a bit of a simplification, is that you're essentially playing Ico with the roles reversed

You cheated not only the game, but yourself.
But most of all, you cheated BABA

I made the mistake of googling the maker of Fez and now I'm bummed when I look at the title of the game in my library - but I won't let it ruin an otherwise chill game. I'll give it a while and play something else, then return to fun exploratory puzzling.

....Which reminds me!

I think Hyper Light Drifter would have been perfect if the bosses were left out of the game, as they add nothing but tedious stress when I want to be exploring and finding more weird things.

Ah yes the new console smell

It's probably just post-manufacturing plastic/PCB solder smell and maybe cancerous but I can't get enough of it

I can still remember when I took my original grey brick Game Boy out of the packaging for the first time when I was a kid... that weird but intoxicating new electronics smell...

There's a documentary i think called 1up that follows him, the super meat boy guys, and some pretentious french canadian dev. The fez dev was hilariously childish. I recommend watching it.
