Played some Hyper Light Drifter last night. It was in my mind from seeing the Solar Ash trailer and then I discovered I already owned it on Steam and had apparently played like 15 minutes and I guess bounced off it? I don't know why because I knocked out the east and north sections last night and am finding it super fun and satisfying, though I find myself wishing the response on the dash was just a touch snappier as I keep dashing myself directly in to lovely situations.
I have zero loving idea what's going on with the story but it's certainly moody and evocative and the art is stunningly beautiful.

I've also been playing Ghosts n Goblins on the NES Online thing on the Switch to scratch an itch I feel to run out and buy Ghosts n Goblins Resurrection even though I suspect my interest in the game won't last. Finally cleared the first stage yesterday but game overed in stage 2 pretty quickly afterwards - I can feel myself slowly improving though which is satisfying.

Red Arremers can go gently caress themselves.

I just got to a bit in AI: The Somnium files where I accidentally ended the game because I flirted with the big titty receptionist too much and my character decided to stop everything, quit the police force and live a peaceful life by the seaside with her.

Hell yeah

I don't care if you're a star, the moon, or the whole damn sky, you need to come back down to earth and remember where you came from
There's a part of me that wishes Heroes of Might and Magic 3 would get the Age of Empires 2 treatment, where some random company just starts releasing expansions for it that do a pretty decent job of expanding on the base game.

I've been enjoying your darksouls streams so far, and I made some fan art in your honor



Hahaha This is incredible! Holy moly it is so true. :D The amount of deaths I have because I forgot to heal.

Thank you. And thank you to those who joined me for five hours of dark souls 2. There were some amazing moments tonight.

Accidentally hitting the wall next to lucatiel and not actually aggroing her despite taking off a sliver of health.

A pretty fantastic parry in some swampy waters under a church.

Laughing as I get murdered by piglets before even getting a weapon.

Meeting the fearsome dragon rider and knocking out the clown almost immediately.

Running past some big iron dudes into the face of a dragon.

Losing some pretty easy battles including doing the last giant first time because I forgot to heal.

It was amazing fun and I am really, really enjoying myself in Dark Souls 2. And most importantly I loved having you there watching and laughing with me :3:

I want a new Gundam Breaker game. Making your own Gundam OC but also being able to make the actual named Gundams in GB3 was great. Also how the battles were framed as basically kids playing with their toys owned.

I'm still mad the only one officially released in the west fuckin sucked rear end.

New Gundam Breaker was just incredibly bad.

I played the Gundam JRPG (MS Saga A New Dawn) for PS2 like a year ago and it was pretty fun. I liked how the parts had like, big character changes as opposed to some of the other Gundam games I tried where the actual mix-and-match component was kinda weak

its surprising there is no "build-a-bear" for gundmans/mecha game. Just seems like something that'd be easy to bash into an MMO or looter-game mold.

Also what happened to lightguns? I wonder if FPS could be made into a fun genre with the use of such a controller.

Is there any media that depicts something like this? Usually there's the pilot and then they have a crew but not all on the same mecha.

Does cruelty squad get better the more I play it or if I didn’t like playing the first level and refunded it then I shouldn’t think about it anymore? I think it was a general confusion about how to play and the soundtrack being too loud is what turned me off it.

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.

Horrifying how? I did an image search for it and it certainly doesn't look particularly unusual.

They tried that on the Wii with one of the many attachments you could slot your wiimote into.

It wasn't fun. Except for Metroid Prime, it was good with that.

Battletech is my favorite, but Front Mission, and Gundam have my favorite mecha as well. Two games I am looking forward to in this genre:

its an ancient god robot that the protagonists are barely in control of and are constantly discovering ever escalating new abilities throughout the series, accidentally destroying multiple planets along the way. the ideon movie ends in a battle where every major character dies violently one after the other, before ideon destroys earth and the aliens' planet followed by the entire galaxy
