That's one game that I think really could have benefited from an auto-difficulty setting because when you die too many times it ironically snaps you out of the tension and ceases to be scary.

I got through roughly 75% of the game on hard difficulty, then when I got stuck I tried to turn the difficulty down only to find out you can't, there was no way in hell I was starting again and I'm still peeved I haven't finished it.

For some reason role playing two separate characters felt weird to me in the original, uh, Original Sin. Obviously I didn't have anyone to co op with.

I ended up having goofy fun with that. I gave each character a personality and tried to really RP as them (instead of how I normally play which is some mixture of "what would I do here" + "what do I think gives me the most additional content from this decision?"). Because there's the weird RPS conversation conflict manager, I could even have them disagree and argue amongst themselves.

There should be a game called RPG Character Creator where you spend your playtime endlessly customizing all the little details about your dude with rich origin stories and features, then you send him out on a quest and the rest of the game is automated for you. After a few days or so you can check back and see how he did.

There's a fun board game called Rollplayer where you're drafting dice to create the perfect Dungeons & Dragons character. I won with a half-orc ranger whose parents are dead and is a lawful good reckless folk hero with 3 intelligence, 3 wisdom, and 3 charisma as god Gary Gygax intended.

The folk hero with no charisma.

I know pre-ordering is bad and I shouldn't have done it, but I just bought Cuphead off of GOG.com.

Pretty stoked for that game. Also I totally forgot Spectre Knight came out for Shovel Knight so I got that to play while I slowly die from this tonsillitis.

I didn't know what amiibos were until I went to Japan the other month and saw them and had to ask a friend what they were.

So, not really but if I can get one as well as Shovel Knight then they can join my Fry & Venomancer figurines on my desk at work I guess.

I'm surprised you didn't know what amiibos were until a month ago. I figured everyone in games just kinda knew about them by now.

I haven't had a Nintendo since the original Wii so I never was really exposed to them much. I knew what the Skylanders stuff was so when I was told what Amiibos were I understood their gimmick, etc.

Rabi Ribi is a very cute and charming and awesome game.

Edit: the only amiibo's I bought were the 2 cloud ones.
FF7 has a special place in my heart. Can I use them in Smash or something?

The thing a lot of the Kotaku/Eurogamer/etc. articles missed is that the charity stuff that the DLC is doing ($3.50 of every $5 purchase goes to the guys family) only applies to 44 US states. Worldwide. Every purchase outside the US will just be straight up pocketed by WB.
