Ok, I'm approaching the end of Horizon Zero Dawn and I don't think I have much RDR2 to go either. Please recommend me something kind of similar so I can continue mainlining dopamine directly into my brain. I've tried the various flavors of Souls games and find them extremely stressful.

God of War seems like a good follow up to HZD if you haven't played that yet.

Does Spider-Man sound interesting to you? If it's an open world kick you're on

Do Japanese distributors get mad when sweaty coke hogs like Nolan North are the English VA in everything?

Spider-Man is also a very good game.

Sekiro is loving sick but I can’t get the parry timing down. I’ve perfect parried a couple of dudes but I can’t do it consistently

Did you have to do something to collect the coins or were they drawn to you automatically? I don't get why in games you have to run around to all the enemies you've killed to collect your orbs, loot, money, etc. Especially if the game has no real inventory management to speak of.

Placed items in the environment have to be picked up manually, but you hoover up dropped stuff by holding the pick up button for a certain radius. It’s a nice balance, you don’t have to chase every corpse around, but you do have to remember to do it.

The windows were covered in Sekiro banners and the place was packed, everyone there was buying it. A mom who couldn't say the name (kept asking for Sicario lol) was next to me in line. Felt like the first day of a COD release or something. I couldn't help but feel a little bit of second hand pride for my boys at From. Seeing how far they have come without ever compromising their games at all. Feels like not long ago that we were all talking about importing Demon's Souls from Asia. Dark Souls was all anyone was talking about at launch!

On the forums and in certain circles. The general public certainly wasn't where they are at now with Fromsoft games.

So a source of mine just let me know that Sony is no longer going to be giving download codes for full games to third party resellers like gamestop and Amazon starting next month. I hope this means that they are instituting some kind of gifting system in place of this.

The Ultimate Alliance games maybe?

I finished SOMA, it was pretty okay but that kind of slower paced Amnesia style game is kinda ruined for me after the superb Alien Isolation. Hollow Knight is really excellent. Really enjoying the zone variety and atmosphere, and the combat feels good even if simple. I did get completely lost for a little bit - hunting down every possible branch across every zone I'd been in got a little frustrating without a clue as to which direction to head, but not so much that it took anything away from the game for me. It was buying the lantern that I had missed, anyway. Now I'm well on my way! Best boss so far is Poop Beetle Warrior because he's just so drat enthusiastic! Worst boss so far are the one or two Generic Bug But Bigger fights. Hardest boss so far is Hornet Round 2. While I'm messing with Hollow Knight in shorter bursts I'm going to start Red Dead 2! I'm very jealous of all you ninja (I need to play my already-bought copy of DS3 before I drop the money on Sekiro) but am also very excited to be a cowboy! Bang bang, Dutch!

Welp, this is another knife in gamestop's torso. AFAIK they still do a loooooooot of digital preorders and they make a huge deal out of selling full game codes poo poo, when I worked at gamestop the free game codes sony gave to managers every now and then was one of the few perks anyone had for working in that shithole.

You can't summon your ship when you find yourself on an island in the middle of nowhere in Odyssey, can you? I know you can do the reverse, fast travel to the ship.

I thought it was quite a bit of overreacting when I thought he got busted for weed, until I found out it was cocaine. This is a big Holy poo poo Piss incident. One of my college roommates left for Japan a few years after we went our separate ways via the JET program, and got caught with his "tobacco pipe" at the airport. Last I checked, he is permanently banned from entering the country.

The reason this face is unsetting is symmetry. I believe. Example of famous person with withouth symmetry.  The error, the mistake, the uniqueness, make faces beatiful, where perfection make faces horrible. I like bad games.

Well I played and beat Shadow of the Tomb Raider and it was aggressively... okay. There's really nothing outright-bad about it, and it's frankly gorgeous, but it just feels like the developers are really sick of making Tomb Raider games and have run out of ideas. Half the upgrades are just bought from merchants for side-content (the rope ascender and lockpick), and there's really not enough variety in the weapon stats to realistically make using anything other than the defaults interesting. Save maybe the LMG. The option to change your gear might as well not exist, considering how much time you spend in Paititi and need either the Blue Heron or Serpent Guard outfits. The story's at least more engaging than Rise's and Lara has a fun dynamic with Jonah. The rest of the cast don't really get to do much aside from move the plot along, but they're okay for what they are and Domingez is actually a decent self-deluded villain. It's pretty clear by the ending though that the writers and developers just want out, because not only are we dealing with the head of Trinity, somehow being a man born in a hidden city who was inducted into the Not Illuminati as an essentially-abducted child rather than surely someone they'd have groomed or old-boy's-club elected in, but the entire ruling council turn up and get slaughtered offscreen. Dealing with Commander Rourke is also just completely unsatisfying after the buildup from Rise and into Shadow; I didn't even realize it was him manning the APC turret until the Yaax'il tore his guts out and, well, guess there goes any kind of closure for Lara but we gotta get this thing done and wrapped up so moooove along to the final boss fight and don't worry about it please!
