Some Darkest Dungeon update came out today, apparently offers a sort of Short Mode to make it less of a grind. It'll be good to cross if off my backlog...

I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.


I am worried about the upcoming castlevania series because last I heard Warren Ellis had replaced the whip with a sword, so there would be zero point to any of it.

Alwa's awakening is a cute little metroidvania that's more on the puzzle/platformer side of the genre. It's a bit short, but absolutely worth playing if you don't mind paying :10bux: for a game that's only 5h long.

Does the ludicrously slow movement of the player character ever change 'cos I got through the first boss and just gave up

I remember trying to get into fighting games a while ago until I realized that it was going to take me as much time and effort as I did getting good at playing the piano.

Learning to play an instrument is a pretty top tier way to spend time tho

That kind of slavish devotion to the content of the source material regardless of how well it actually works in an adaptation is how you get the 90s Mario movie.

That is NOT how we got the 90s Mario movie.

And there really is nothing to castlevania besides a man whipping monsters, if you don't have that, it's not castlevania. This is not a controversial statement.

castlevania is not about monsters being whipped, but rather, our minds, whipped into a fervor that is. "what is a man".... :hai:

I wouldn't trust the Cory Doctorow article but on the other hand, Steve Bannon did try to write a film adaptation of Titus Andronicus, Shakespeare's torture and rape play, (but in space!!), with writing that rivals "It is the heat death of the Universe" in terms of bad sci-fi dialog, so I definitely wouldn't be surprised if he invested millions of United States dollars in orc gold.

If it comes out tomorrow that Steve Bannon was the one who wrote the "four balls on the edge of a cliff" thing, and it is proven to the point where there is no denying it, I will probably laugh a whole bunch but not be terribly surprised.

Konami asked Nintendo how they can revive interest in the Bomberman series like how Fire Emblem was revived.

Nintendo told them to just fill it with fictional women and/or girls.

And so we arrived here.

So what I'm getting from this Activision Earnings Slide is that Skylanders is not...entirely dead. It's only somewhat dead. They deliberately mention there's gonna be more seasons of the TV show and there's a mobile game development while also deliberately not mentioning whether or not a console title is in development as well.
I feel like they've painted themselves into a corner by maintaining backwards compatibility with all the older toys with each new game. The number of toys you can now use with the newest one is staggering. Sure, they can reuse assets to some extent, but not entirely, and reusing things traps them in certain ways.
IGE was once pretty big poo poo and dealt in a lot more than just WoW gold, it's not all that shocking to me.
