Add Iconoclasts to the pile. I remember really liking this game but I got tied up in trying to get all the secrets before the end. Coming back to it, the end sequence and credit roll just served to remind me about how much I had forgotten about the game. I don’t know if I was on a good end or bad end path, and since you can’t see the whole map at one time I really had no clue where anything would be. Luckily my save was close enough to the final zone and I made the right call to go left instead of right to get me there.

Iconoclasts only has the one ending. Going left is the point of no return, going right lets you explore the world one last time.

It's a real gem and one of the best solo act games

this is the guy that thought egg whites were the shells, and that he'd never eaten an onion before until someone pointed out to him that he was eating them on a buger. he thought they were "flavor crystals"

well, they are flavour crystals in a way? they really do make a lot of dishes so much better and salt and sugar are crystals so crystals is sometimes good food. the way they aren't crystals is in most ways though.

It's MISSEL! Or SISSLE!
I confused myself...



I got through the third trial in Danganronpa V3 and I was enjoying it, as well as the implications of the kind of dynamic it could lead to post-trial but then they went and ruined that and went with the most boring answer they could think of for Angie's killer, the guy we already proved killed Tenko. I think it would have been more interesting if someone else killed Angie and got punished for it, and by the newly established rule, Kiyo just continues living with everyone else and now they have to deal with that. I don't even want to talk about all the reveals about Kiyo that came about after the trial was over...

over the weekend i played sonic the hedgehog 4: episode 1, and i don't really think i have anything unique to say about it. the game is a hollow nostalgia grab more concerned with reminding you of elements from sonics 1 and 2 than being its own game on top of being somewhat unpleasant to look at and listen to. the first two zones are okay, i did like the card-centric act in not-casino night, but there are some dire acts in the latter two zones and the final boss is just the final boss of sonic 2 but like three times longer. i'm curious to see what changes in episode 2

but before that, it's time for colors! and colors is really good! it's got a back to basics vibe story-wise which is kind of a bummer as someone who loves silly sonic stories, but what is there is super cute and the gameplay is top notch. there are rumors of an upcoming remaster and i hope they're true because i'd very much like to see what this game looks like with a fresh coat of paint

Last Celebration
Mar 30, 2010
I beat (base) Dark Souls III, my first soulsborne (I just have the last boss of BB but gently caress, that means I beat the best Soulsborne). It was a fun ride. Imho the levels are bette put together than DS3 since they have this winding mazelike feel to them. Ironically I felt like most of the game had an inverse problem versus its reputation; enemies generally attack faster but they still have gaping openings while even with a “slow” hand axe/battle axe I could bait an opening and R1 them to death even with a late bloomer pyromancer build.

The last fight was super depressing though because it’s how I found out that sorcerers get a literal kamehameha but I’ve heard sorcery sucks so :(

Re: Streaming

I haven't found a stream or YouTube commentator I like yet. I never used to consider myself some kind of audiophile but I've found that a poorly miked stream will hurt my ears more than nails on a chalkboard ever could and most streams are not miked properly. And the ones that are miked well are usually run by puffed up douchebags and with all of the recent scandals coming out about YouTube personalities just kind of turns me off of the whole medium.

So you don't like a single thing about a medium hundreds of thousands enjoy. Cool

I'm really bummed I missed this, but it was my birthday weekend and I spent it with my gf doing super cool and fun things so I can't really complain too much.

I'll have to watch the replays! Although sadly I'm not nearly as interested in watching a stream of Last Guardian... so I guess let me know when you play Demon's :)

My final run in the moment I felt was sloppy and bad, but rewatching it I felt a lot better. I did have some cool moments and all in all it took me about 2 and three quarter hours over the course of two streams to beat the final boss. :D Feeling pretty good about that. 180 hours in total to beat Bloodborne, DS1, DS2, DS3 and Sekiro.

And yeah, I did have a pretty huge worry that me finishing the From series was akin to the phase 3 end of the MCU. A kind of 'now what?' moment and would the games I play next be as entertaining, but there will be many other ridiculous things to watch me flail at. TLOU is coming soon, and I will buy Demons Souls on June the 1st.

Plus I have the Surges and Nioh 1 so there will be times to watch me wail on the lesser souls. The last time I played either of those three was right after Bloodborne. I now have the DS1-3 and Sekiro training :)

Beating games is the goal of streaming for me and it is working well :D

raditts posted:

Awww dang, I missed VG finishing Sekiro? Really wanted to see that one, I even went on Twitch yesterday but I didn't see you on :(

I did a short Sekiro stream and then when I finished I took at ten minute break and then started Last Guardian. It might have been during that break. I honestly was not expecting to beat Sekiro so early. I started at 2:00pm and it was 3:45pm when I got the ending.

I kinda get where they're coming from. The few streamers I watch are people i've followed for years that have migrated from youtube to twitch and they very much aren't the GAMER types most associated with streaming. If I was trying to get into it fresh and going through the stuff twitch puts forward as representation? I think i'd give up and assume I wasn't going to like watching streams.

I have no advice to give people trying to find content they like other than to say twitch will absolutely push the worst people and content at you because loud obnoxious people make them the most money. Capitalism baby, success is completely divorced from quality.

Nioh is great and the random loot can be totally ignored. If anything it kind of makes it easier because armor has a pre-determined weight, so you can assemble a clownsuit once and then just replace the individual pieces with stronger versions as you get them just looking at the defense stat and ignoring all of the other random bonuses. You will eventually unlock a transmogrify thing to make the armor look like any other armor piece so you can play fashion souls, too. Just make sure you aren't going above the lightest weight bracket, not getting hit because you have a million iframes is way better than +10 defense or some poo poo.

For weapons you can literally just ignore every stat except attack and maybe whether or not the weapon is blessed because thats just more damage. Plus, all the best weapons are blessed anyways.

What mix were you playing at the start of your stream yesterday?

Mad Max stories have a mythic quality, his character is entirely "man drives the last of the V8 interceptors and helps tip the balance for a faction and carries a weight from the old world". Max knows what things are because it lets him better mourn the loss of the old world, even if time wise he would have aged out and died long ago (see Fury Road and his age versus the old women).

My theory is that the "apocalypse" as seen in Mad Max is localized entirely to Australia, and the rest of the world just accepts it as The Way Australia Is.
