On the subject of NPC dialogue, now that I'm deep into FE Three Houses, there's a random NPC nun that sounds SO out of place when you're roaming the monastery. You'll wander by someone and just get this random ultra-cheery "Oh hey, you!" No gently caress you, a fantasy nun wouldn't talk like that.

I'm there too now, hopefully I'll get workable tactics ingrained after a while. Trying to balance all the magic stamina use (especially for shield) is pretty tricky since I tend to just do a lot of spamming one thing until the system really gets set in my mind.

Once you get it, Levitate doesn't cost any energy to activate and causes enemies to miss against you way more often. There's also a ground slam evolution in the tree that depletes the rest of your energy bar for a one-hit kill melee attack, but you don't need any energy to use it. So your typical combat approach can be leaping into the air, raining down a few desklamps upon your foes, then finishing with a ground pound into gunfire until your telekinesis powers are fully recharged.

Yeah, this sort of approach gets you through basically all the main story portion of the game. The only things that really gave me any issues were optional bosses.

I'm no angel but I've spread my wings a bit. So I kicked him in the head 'til he wos dead nyeheheh I YAM THE LAW Look I played a lot of Baldur's Gate in the day, some things will be ingrained in my skull forever. Anyway I'm watching my gf play Dragon Quest Builders 2 and poo poo I almost forgot how much inane babbling every character does for each and every interaction. I love the game but whenever plot or quests are involved, people will just simply not shut up.

The convicts wouldn’t be half as bad if they didn’t respawn for some god forsaken reason. Though it was incredibly satisfying getting them stuck on a tree and destroying them with the mega man buster.

Crafts! Fiiiine Dwarven crafts, direct from Orzammar!  The worst is when NPC shopkeepers say something every time you buy an item, but they only have like three lines. I've been replaying the Fable games and every time I buy potions it's "A fine item!" "A fair price!" "A fine item!"

There's an NPC who goes to each of them, has the same conversation every time and repeats the pattern forever. Every time you stop by to get something new you'll hear the exact same thing over and over.

I recently bought the remastered version of Crash Team Racing and it seems like it is way, waaaay harder than the original. I'm trying to play on the medium difficulty and it's usually incredibly touch and go, sometimes even a relatively minor mistake can cost me an entire race. It's all still pretty fun, but they maybe could have toned it down just a small bit. I'm fairly decent after all these years but it doesn't always seem to matter much. I have to wonder what it would be like for someone who doesn't know the game trying to start on medium, I can imagine it coming off as kinda unfair.

To be fair to the blacksmith "Tink, tink tink" thing it's an audio cue that's useful because when you are in a new area it tells you when you are close to them.

But the whole point of the name is not that it was the origin, but the starting point for the person collecting examples of its usage. So it’s not really mislabeled, like Quake Sounds for example. You know, that announcer voice from an obscure indie game released long before, I think it was called Unreal Tournament or something like that!

The best suplex goes to God Hand and playing a game of reverse-em where you and the enemy switch positions trying to suplex each other never gets old.

Just Cause 3 Cars and boats are basically pointless because of the wingsuit (even moreso with the dlc jetpack) but implementing one easy change would make them more fun: the boost and jump and whatnot upgrades you get from challenges should apply to any vehicle you commandeer and not just those you order a drop for. I guess it wouldn't really make sense but who cares. Who the hell has patience to ever order a car?

Control: I just finished playing through the main campaign and while I enjoyed it (although the aping from SCP was painfully obvious in a lot of cases) the ending was sorta a wet fart. They build up all these mysteries, then end things in the most predictable way possible your brother, who has been set up as the antagonist overall, ends up in a coma. You can continue playing to cleanse the oldest house of the Hiss, but there isn't much in the way of reward after leveling your skills. Two major plot points are left pretty completely unresolved, Darling and Ahti. The two ending sequences don't have a boss or a cool new type of enemy, just a rush of the same guys you've been fighting forever. Overall, game had a lot of potential and I was intrigued by the idea of a AAA metroidvania type game, but it was disappointing on the whole.
