Just revisited the part of Red Faction Guerilla with my favorite voice line: "The thing about explosives is, any moron can blow up a building. Don't you want to be that moron?"

In The Long Journey Home you can talk with aliens you meet about a variety of topics, including all the other aliens you've met. One exchange with a pair of religious pilgrims tickled me the right way.quote:Talk -> Humans

The actual game is largely unchanged since they already did a Steam port to take out all the GFWL years ago but at least it's free to people who already own it which is always appreciated in an age when Gearbox wants people to pay $40 for Bulletstorm with up-rezzed textures. Also they did the right thing and officially canonized Space rear end in a top hat as the game's theme in the marketing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3b10POrNXw

I do understand the complaints about Dead Rising 4 (lack of Psychopaths, no time management aspect), but I'm running around in lacy underwear, with a terrible fake tan, punching zombies and hurling lobsters at soldiers. The change of Frank Castle's voice actor is annoying, but the new guy does such a great dumb dad joke line of humour - and is treated appropriately by survivors - I can't help but enjoy him.

I bought A Hat in Time after it was recommended in the GDQ thread, and it's absolutely wonderful – probably my favourite game I've played this year. One of the neat things you can do is collect tokens that you spend in a slot machine to get new skins for your hats, dyes for your clothes, and remixes for the game's soundtrack that you can replace the in-level music with. One of the dye colours, Forest Critter, reskins your character to look like Link from Wind Waker. It's pretty adorable!

I really liked Dead Rising 4. I had a great time with it, despite the changes they made. Sending Frank back West to Willamette was cool, too, especially with it being Christmas time. I liked the goofy Christmas poo poo you could find laying around the city.

I just started playing Wolfenstein The New Colossus, and after going back to Terror Billy's childhood home I had to take a break and go tell my kids that they can be/do whatever they want and I will always love and support them, except support the systematic extermination of minority groups, that poo poo's not cool.

At least you got to rightfully murder the poo poo out of your own Dad. I did like that they put effort in to make him a proper well-rounded deadbeat father, with the rare brief moment of being a good parent sometimes rather than just total one-dimensional rear end in a top hat.

In Super Mario Odyssey, Bowser's voice is just low, grumbly monster noises. The actual dialogue is provided via the subtitles. However, I recently noticed that, if you listen closely, you can make out proper nouns. Apparently that's just what his native language sounds like! Listen carefully.

In the original Odin Sphere, all characters had the same skills, which were very lame and pretty much useless. In Leifthrasir, each one gets has a unique array to choose, from physical skills to magical to support; following the usual model of this kind of game, you get to bind five of them to quick actions, 1 to Circle and 4 to Circle+Direction. Of course, that isn't enough to fully use your arsenal, so they have a couple of additions to help the player: First, you can select if you want to activate the Skill with the D-Pad, the Stick or if they're going to be activated only while you're in Mid-Air. In this one I put one that I like to cast while jumping into a mob of foes as a Mid-Air skill:  But if even that isn't enough for you, there are the Special Commands  which basically turn the entire thing into a Fighting Game scheme. Everything is optional, I prefer the simple Circle+DPad system but it's very neat that they thought of the people that wanted to go guns blazing into combat. Now, something that was also in the original game; when you beat enemies, you get experience points, loot, and Phozons. These can be used to upgrade your skills or to "feed" seeds you plant, which bear fruits that restore your HP and raise it's max level, while also being ingredients for recipes that are even more effective. Most of the fruits are your usual selection, grapes, berries, (n)apples...and then you have the Baromett: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wr1_gX-Yf4g That's still vegan, right?

OG Odin Sphere had you just hoping enough were floating around after a fight or that you had a Rosemary seed onhand (which generates 12 phozons). You can also opt to play original-style Odin Sphere as well from the main menu. It's about as definitive an edition of the game as you could ever hope to have.

Leifthrasir was a game I was not expecting much out of, but drat did it blow me away. I did everything available in that game, it was just so good.

muscles like this! posted:IIRC the devs said an issue with the whole Geomod 2.0 destruction system is that your buildings actually had to be architecturally sound because otherwise they would just fall apart. I recall an interview with the THQ or Volition people during development. They said something like, "We made the technology first and had a blast smashing apart cubes and such. We then build a house, plopped it down and the whole thing crumbled instantly. None of us have ever built a building correctly before. We had to hire and architecture consultant."

There's some text that implies that the Doom Slayer from 2016 is the same as the Doomguy from Doom 64, as both are described as having gone into Hell, killing the leader of the demons and remaining there to prevent any further uprisings. Personally, I like the idea that it's the same dude from Doom, Doom 2, and Doom 64, having ended up on an alternate Mars and finding out that some fuckhead scientist has done the same poo poo that hosed up his own Mars/Earth.
