they also said not to expect too many new characters this time so my expectations are thoroughly tapered

I like that they said that and then introduced way more new characters than I was expecting. tbh I thought it was just gonna be Ridley and Daisy

also pokefloats and big blue are like my favourite smash stages ever and also the ones with different modes like the pokemon stadium ones

also also items are the best. sometimes the game just spawns a bob--omb on someone's head and that rules

Every good PS+ indie game is one I already bought and beat. It is the rule of PS+. I do play multiplayer on there a lot and use the party system so I get my money's worth (still riding one year cards I bought on decent discount). Yeah, I'm one of the people who wants non-wonky voice chat on Switch too.

I would like to play a turn-based resource management game for the personal computer.

Should I get Scythe, Egypt: Old Kingdom, or other

I didn't even know Scythe was available on Steam. Great, now I have to get it. We've been playing the board game a ton over the past two months.

Yeah, my view on it is pretty much this. That's like trying to play Mario Party or Mario Kart competitively. They're party games. Spontaneity is kind of part of the proceedings. Who the hell wants to play Smash with restricted items and stages? That sounds so lame to me.

They've been adding more features to accommodate that play since 4, so

MUGEN is an engine, not a game. It's like saying Unity is the game that has the biggest character roster.

it's not my business how someone else wants to play smash but for me it'll always be just a great party game. get a bag of weed and a couple beers and you can't go wrong with that

Same. Playing it competitive-style is unfun for me so I tend to just have everything on but if people want to FD/Fox only/no items, they can do whatever they want.

That's why I'm excited for the new Final Smash meter option, since it means people get to use their Final Smashes more often, and honestly that just sounds like a goddamn blast to me. I'm in Smash to have a chill fun time

My college roommate used to play Kirby exclusively back in Melee and he was so drat good at eating people, then jumping off the stage, shooting them to the right, and floating back up. If you knew what you were doing it wasn't impossible to recover but most of us didn't so he would fuckin clean up with that poo poo

There are a lot of xbox 360 era games that run at full framerate on my intel gpu laptop, but guerilla is not one of them because of all the physics.. though it does run at 30fps

i wish the red faction games had a little more visual flair to them, because it's mars they just go with the red/brown and very industrial/utilitarian facilities, which is TOO grounded for me, for a game where you blow everything up. i wish they had more fun with the design/aesthetic

also i should mention that the game after guerilla is completely average in every way and dials back the destruction to specific stuff

yeah red faction definitely dipped itself deep in some of the more overwhelming and dated trends of 2000s shooters and open world games, if thq nordic makes a new one like they are for darksiders i'd like to see them shake things up a bit without losing the core of guerrilla

i'd like to see one that takes place at a point in mars colonization where it becomes more tourist-trappy and has gaudier flashier attractions, especially because I feel like those would be fun to see wrecked apart with the destruction physics

8 also doesn't have any kind of HD port yet, unlike 7/9/10/10-2/12.

If it ever gets one I'm sure it will pop up on Switch too.

it had a lot of good game announcements and confirmations and luigi's mansion 3 looks potentially closer to what i like about the first game than dark moon did. daemon x machina looks fun and starlink actually looks sort of alright maybe

but

they kind of completely failed at justifying paid online in any way lmao
