I was just randomly thinking: what's everyone's favorite game that they don't think they'll ever actually beat? For me it's probably Thumper. I pretty much adore everything about that game but it is so god damned hard and so amazingly intense that I can't see myself ever actually finishing it.

towerclimb is my favorite roguelite ever but i'm pretty confident i'm never going to beat it. it's really hard! got to the final boss a few times but beef it every time

I'm trying to think of a game hard enough that I couldn't beat it but also not frustrating enough that I still like it and coming up blank. If I stopped playing something it's gonna be because I stopped enjoying it.

Sometimes people get exactly what they deserve, although ideally the guy should have gone to jail

i have actually played The Guy Game before. One of my friends was a fraternity member around 2004 and thus, was the target audience and he or one of his friends bought it, and after it was killed for being really mild child porn he kept it as a curiosity to show people.

It is, unsurprisingly, loving awful

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

I think Smash Bros. Ultimate is the Dark Souls of platform fighting games, in that I think I might start keeping track of how many times I've died (currently around 80 or so I think)

In the story mode I tried playing other characters but have gone back to Kirby, who is Powerful and Good

that one early mission on the left side of the map where everything is constantly exploding took me a bit

though not nearly as long as my first encounter with Dread Secretary Isabella

battle chef brigade is a surprisingly good game but why have an in-game map if you only go to like two locations (I thought you would go to the skyworld with Kirin at least). You never even go into the darkrealm to cook (available only in the daily/free play I guess? :psyduck:)

it's good but the mechanics are a bit too simple so battles start to wear out their welcome near the end since you're just repeating the same attacks a lot without much meaningful variety
