they should make it because I want RE 4-2!

RE2 with RE4 gameplay is not the same thing (RE5 isn't either). The goofy shlocky action horror tone is very important!

I'd love a Leon game that detailed his other globetrotting antics between 4 and 6. Hell even one that's between 2 and 4 where he's pals with the President. I'd even take a grizzled Leon in RE8 at this point, as long as he regains the personality that was stolen from him in RE6 because idk what happened there. Just make sure Mercer or Mercier voices him!

RANDOM CHAT THREAD HOLIDAY CONTEST!!!!!

Hey chat thread, because I got some extra stuff lying around and I want to thank you for letting me greedily be the OP of this thread every month for over a year, I'm gonna have a little contest. All I really want is for you to do some fan art of your favorite game you played this year. It can be any medium you want, any style and any game as long as you played it and loved it this year. The prizes I have are:

-A huge Overwatch art book (I got this from Secret Santa last year and one of my friends didn't know I had it and got it for me this year)
-A very slightly broken Gregg from Night in the Woods figure (it just snapped clean of the base. You should be able to make it good as new with a little glue or you can keep him off the base)
-Two download codes for the Switch version of Hollow Knight (I have nothing to put in the brackets here but I'm purring this here so they all have one)

You have until New Years and I'll put the winners in the OP of next month's thread. The four winners will be able to pick which prize they want and if they don't want any remaining prizes, I'll declare a 5th and 6th place until someone wants what I have left.

Shadow Hearts in particular is something where I didn't play Koudelka but Koudelka really ties in to the rest of the series' overall theme regarding life and the attempted cheating of or reversal of death itself.
Koudelka also has the best character writing in the series and it's voice acting was fantastic for its day and still really holds up. I'd say watching/reading an LP is mandatory at the very least if you want to get into the series. The gameplay is a mess but the writing and atmosphere are top notch and super unique when it comes to the genre.

It's Bowsette related isn't it?

Speaking of, gotta organise the gang for a weekend of Super Arsehole Brothers for launch date.

Extremely. It's... well, idk what else to call it other than pretty damned amazing. I wouldn't say that the story is the most original thing in the world or that the game should be given to the pope or anything like that but it really is an amazingly wonderfully original title with a solid story that is told very well in an era where voice acting in horror games was not exactly uhhh good. On top of that, it's legitimately interesting to see how they put together this horror game centered around a monastery in Wales and all of the awful, terrible things that happened there.

Koudelka telling Edward her past is still one of the best voice-acting in games almost twenty years on.
