from what i remember from when i kicked it around for an hour or two years and years and years ago it was not actually that good, but it had a novel spin on the typical jrpg menu based combat and more critically was a straight up jrpg available on the sega saturn which itself was pretty much a novelty outside of utterly trash generic stuff like uh... albert odyssey

Feels Villeneuve posted:is PDS *that* good or did it just get notoriety for being impossible to play easily Not really, it hasn't aged well at all. Released at the very end of a failed console that barely anyone bought. If it's going to be remade then it needs to be remade from the ground up, but a faithful recreation of the pacing, gameplay mechanics, etc. just wouldn't hold up today. Saga literally has a 10+ minute CGI cutscene at the very start because reasons, it's just an absurd game.

I'm not sure how it's aged but one of the main things with PDS is it's really unique. It does a good job combining rail shooting and rpg combat into a battle system that was really cool and has never really been attempted again. There just isn't anything else like it

The Panzer Dragoon game i'm really obsessed with is Orta. The Xbox One X version is native 4K and 60fps, and it's really beautiful.

Its an interesting and semi unique combat with a lot of love put into its weird world down to the kickass soundtrack being sung in its made up language but its also super duper dated and short.

Art style is indie textureless and boy does that kill any interest in exploring near on immediately as you traverse the land of untextured greyness.

an actual dog posted:that's what the game is about when you watch the cutscenes too I was trolling, I did watch the cutscenes. The feather bit was neat, and the way they merged Narrative and Gameplay into ludo-narrative harmony in World 7 was clever and made the game more fun. Kudos to indie treasure of the year Celeste

The Surge falls into the trap of thinking being hard is the primary point and thing to take away from the souls games, and as such is an obnoxious slog that has some cool ideas. I did get it for free though, so I only stuck with it for a couple of hours before shelving it.

Unfortunately there are 4 enemies in the game and the bosses suck and the environments all look the same. Although I heard the DLC was better about that on all points, so I'm interested in Surge 2

Every single button in Ashen is identical to Dark Souls except Y/Triangle which is a dedicated jump button and if more platforming is the thing you thought the souls games were missing this is literally the perfect game for you.

Does anyone know where I can find a good Night in the Woods art print?? The official store has some good shirts but otherwise  Dear anyone making a video game with merch: Please have a decent poster or print with the whole cast. I don't want anyone left out. I found a great little print that had Mae and Gregg but it didn't have Bea or Angus! Unacceptable

the best sega saturn localization is shining wisdom because sega of us' refusal to localize it ended up getting the localization tossed off to working designs and the result was a localization that completely rewrote two characters from one of them explicitly not being interested in the other, to both of them being a loving couple because someone at working designs really wanted to ship that i guess and then a while later sega of europe released a completely different localization that, did not have that
