When I feel like this I grab an ARPG like Diablo. FF12 also served me well.

Had to make sure I wasn't repeating any news but apparently nobody has uttered the words "BATTLEBORN" in a little over a week ago. On the SNES Classics thread.

i just want to thank gearbox for their talent, their hard work, and their impact on so many people with this game

such a vivid, vibrant world, varied and interesting characters, gameplay that was constantly being tweaked so it played just right with balance and mechanics that were so well thought out

they took such a chance on this game, and while it may not have paid off for Various Reasons, it was still an amazing ride. i made so many friends, i had so much fun, i even learned a few things from the experience.

turn-based JRPGs are usually undemanding to play

point & click adventures too, as long as the puzzles aren't too obtuse

I think the underage dating simulator looks creepy.

I don't see why, it's not even a dating sim, it's just a linear story about a couple in high school. Do you think any high school romance drama story is inherently creepy?

Sorry. I'm not try to offend you here and it's okay for you to not like it but I feel like just calling it an underage dating simulator is just being purposefully obtuse and overly reductive. It's a high school romance story about two kids in high school. Of course they're going to be high-schoolers. :shrug:

e: also, I don't really like you calling it an underage dating simulator because I feel like you're trying to make it out to be a game that only pedophiles would like and I don't like the idea of someone implying that I'm a pedophile because I like a high school romance visual novel.

Obviously I don't know what they were actually talking about, but I was under the assumption they were talking about that developer's other game that seems to be an Actual Porn Game.

I'm not accusing you of being a pedophile and that's apparently a bannable offense so I don't appreciate you saying it.

Do you have an active role in romancing the one eyed girl in the game or are do you just watch? The screenshots you posted make it look like the player is an active participant in it, which I find a little creepy.

I had a hard time with the Undead Giant for the dumbest reason: He's too slow. All bosses so far have been doubling up on the speed and making quick dodges at the right moment and then comes around this loving doofus who takes a whole second to charge his blows. I'd dodge on instinct before he even swung and then get half of my health destroyed.
