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.

RDR2 at this point. I love everything about it but I just don’t have the energy or time to play it properly

There's still a scene with Dutch in his longjohns that I saw in a Dunkey video but didn't see in the game

that's because it's from RDR1

Ah, well. Thank you. I was kind of dreading that there was some post-game interaction I'd have to hunt down. There's a swath of the south west I never bothered to explore so as far as I know anything could be down there. I appreciate you clearing that up for me.

i really want to know 1) who the person is that was responsible for the decision to give sonic the hedgehog human musculature, and 2) what their reaction to the massive internet backlash over it is

As long as his (sonic's) arms aren't blue I won't have to get violent.

This isn't exactly what you're asking but: I am no good at Splatoon and don't really enjoy playing it. However I think Splatoon is one of the most fun stylish IPs Nintendo has come up with in a long time. I'm glad it exists because I just adore the style that game has, the music is cool, Pearl and Marina are cool, what a cool game Nintendo has made that I don't play. I hope Splatoon continues to have success

I honestly 100% agree (except for the bit I changed). I really like the idea of the game but when I play it, something just doesn't fully connect and I lose interest.

I mean, yes, it's a shooter but it has unique mechanics and a cool style and world.

It's a 4v4 competitive shooter yeah, which takes the somewhat nebulous/invisible concept of map control and actualizes it as the foundational mechanic.

Its a really inventive shooter with great mechanics that I cant maintain any interest in for more than 2 hours.

Also it has motion controls and those dont work for me

Splatoon 2 is a good game. The mechanics are a lot of fun and unique. There are also a lot of great cosmetic options that have no real money cash shop attached to it (and no lootboxes) and yet the game still gets constant free updates with new maps and cosmetic items added.

I like it bc it's a fast shooter and matches are 2 minutes instead of 15+ like in every other game. It's a better Quake game than Quake champions
