The part he quit was right after the Vandham (I think? the big green guy) fight. Which sucked because I actually really wanted to see more of that environment!

Maybe you should....buy the game? :)

or just watch a different streamer, there's no shortage of decently entertaining streams/LPs these days

That's weird there wasn't even anything particularly tedious about that section of the game, I just did it last night.

I've often wondered what it must be like to start the series with one of the later games. The thing is that with every sequel they introduce some new poo poo and then mostly keep it in the following games. The result is that it at this point is a pretty drat bloaty series.
Not really sure if the tutorials are any good either, beyond the basics.

Is Nine Parchments like Alien Swarm just with wizards and magic? That game was the poo poo.

Frankly I found it boring as Diablo-likes go. Not enough enemies on screen at a time and they're all horrible damage sponges.
At least the three spell magic system seemed interesting and I bet it's way more fun in coop. That it also has an actual story that seems charming is also a plus.
My advise would be to wait for Titan Quest since that's one of the best entries in the genre, despite its age.

The thing I learned from playing Tales of Symphonia a decade ago is if you play Anime games very infrequently, you get to be shocked/bemused/baffled by all the tropes instead of "here we go again". That game threw every cliche in the book at you and it was hilarious.

Turning the light on the darkest places, you and I know we got to face this now. We got to face this now.

I just wish there was an updated game that stole from Dragon Quest 5, where you start as a little kid with your dad, you get married, have kids, and end up getting old. I remember in the middle of the game you get taken as a slave for years and it owned.

Paypal has some sort of promo going where if you buy $20 of eshop credit, you get $5 back. No clue if it's targeted or not, but it might be worth checking your email.

Kind of excited about what Donna Burke is working on. It would be one hell of a callback to bring her in to voice a character from F-Zero X, though I'm thinking this is going to be something Metal Gear related.

she only worked on V for that one track so i doubt it. i mean of course i would by a quaddip a full mgs legacy collection once more, no question but i think she's working on a new game.

edit: wait didn't she do the idroid voice as well? hmm then again there's nothing new the prior lines didnt cover but they did revoice all of twin snakes unnecessarily so who knows in this day and age.

They released a Metal Gear vocal album after V came out where she recorded new versions of the songs she didn't originally sing (the original versions are there too.) She's really talented.

Donna Burke also did at least one song for DDR. I'm pretty sure she works/ed in some bigger position in Konami, because she accidentally leaked on Twitter that Kojima had been fired, because she thought that information was public knowledge. I guess we'll see!

Supercar Gautier

As far as Nintendo franchises that might fit her style, maybe the upcoming Fire Emblem game? Fates' soundtrack revolved around a big dramatic vocal track, so I could see Burke being brought on for something like that.

She recorded an updated cover of Do The Mario.

Just bring your dock and cables.

Pros: it works. it's not going to cost you anything.

Cons: you eat up about the size of a book in space.

Further reporting on the wii shield games seems to be that they are delivered via streaming and arent running on shield hardware, probably to avoid piracy

Nintrndo likely licensed some games to nvidia in return for cheaper hardware rates for switch, the vc wait continues

Twilight Princess running on Shield is 1080p and has ABXY buttons on the HUD, so they're probably re-coding the games to not use motion at the same time.
