Yeah, don't the consoles already have the non-lovely versions? I haven't bought them on steam buecause that interface on the steam version sucks

The non-lovely remakes of 1 and 2 are on psp and mobile
All remakes of 3 are trash
The remakes of 4 for gba and psp are good in their own ways, gba mainly for party swap and bonus bosses.
GBA has the only good remake of 5 and 6.

3-4 for DS are ugly, badly balanced games. The mobile remakes of 5-6 look like cheap amateur shovel ware and it’s made all the more baffling when you see who made the lazy FFD character edited sprites.



Let’s watch these sell maybe enough to recoup costs while DQ3 HD sells probably 4-5 million copies just in Japan.

It’s called D+ because it has a below average selection of movies and TV shows.

I was going to sub for a month until that freebie came along just to watch a few Marvel movies in 4K. Which was a bad enough idea on its own. Paying month over month for it? Lucky for Disney there is a huge demographic of parents who will sub just to keep their kids quiet in the living room for a couple hours per day.

Mostly the new star wars and Marvel shows, also National Geographic documentaries.
A big reason I keep it is because my family stream shares all the big services and subbing to D+ yearly was the least expensive overall way for me to contribute.

I'd say subbing once every six months or so to catch up isn't a bad idea, I just hate having to deal with resubbing every time there's something I want to watch.

My fashionably late 5 cents:

NikkolasKing posted:

I have no idea what this current discussion or argument is about but isn't Alien one of the most important and influential scifi or horror movies of the last...what, 40 years?

I admittedly don't know much about Spawn but can it really be compared to a series that ushered in many (admittedly, all terrible except the first one) big Hollywood movies, comic books and video games, the last of which sold over 2 million copies? (at least, was Alien Isolation the last Alien game? It's the last one I know about)

Not only is the Alien one of the mist iconic...aliens ever, I have heard the movie popularized or pioneered that whole "space trucker" idea. And Ripley is one of the most famous movie heroines of all time.

I've never heard anybody brush it off as just a nerd niche thing.

Not only that, I'm fairly certain I've heard that Alien is the most studied movie ever made, that is, has the most Doctorate and Master's thesis to its name compared to any other film. I'm not a huge fan of the franchise as a whole, but the first movie isn't even remotely a cult classic or anything. It's genre-defining.

GreenBuckanneer posted:

Anecdotally, re-selling Spawn toys has been much easier for me than Alien Toys. Iconic, yes, both are fairly "mainstream popular" but, again anecdotally, there seems to be more Spawn fans willing to soak up anything spawn related (like batman or similar) more than there are Alien folk.

Oh that's easy, it's just that Spawn-fans never grew up. Kidding aside, maybe Alien is just that mainstream that the vast majority of fans don't feel the need to collect memorabilia, whereas Spawn remains in that realm of people who collect pop-culture miscellanea.

Wildtortilla posted:

This thread sure got weird.

Yes, yes it did.

What've you been playing lately? You always have such thorough comments to make.

I've been bouncing between Hades, Mario Galaxy, MH: Rise and Stardew Valley.

The first I'm down to a run a day for. It's still very good, but I'm sort of treading water after 70 runs as content is still present but the grind is starting up. I think I'll keep to this holding position for a while since I'm still beating the harder difficulties, I'm at +7, at my highest at the moment.

Galaxy is pretty brilliant and I'm slowly clearing the levels. I do sort of hate the hub, it just feels like it takes too much time to play a level. I guess that's something Galaxy 2 did away with? Pity I'll never get a chance to play it. Also, Rosalina is not an interesting character in the slightest, and I do sort of hate how she just keeps showing up now in Mario games.

MH: Rise, has morphed into a phone game, that is I talk on the phone while grinding money in it. It's still good, but I prefer to play it with my buddy and haven't advanced much on my own. Also, despite it being very adapted to short sessions, I prefer sitting down for a couple of hours when playing it.

Stardew Valley is still an incredible game and it's awful how much it hooks me. I think everyone who likes the genre knows it by now, but it's just the best. I just started Fall 1 and things are going swimmingly. I take it far easier when I play with my partner, who has shocked me but actually enjoying it, even if she still messes up her button presses almost constantly.

It is but I have trouble enjoying Aliens because it's so different from Alien, which is one of my favorite movies. I also prefer horror to action I guess, though there are some great great action movies out there.

Do movies still get game adaptations, come to think of it? I remember how much of a thing that was back in the day. With blockbusters being superhero fare these days what's adapted isn't so much a movie as a franchise I find.

Been playing Mario Sunshine. I have a love/hate relationship with it. I think it’s mostly love.

My friend got a PS5 recently and mailed me his PS4 (and God of War). I got that this weekend and have been puttering around with that. It’s a pretty fun game. I haven’t made it very far and I’m surprised at how challenging I’m finding regular enemies. My first kid is due at the end of August so between painting two rooms in prep for him to arrive and doing everything else, I’m trying to finish GoW. If that goes very quickly I’d like to pick up Bloodborne, but I have my suspicions all the prep work and nesting efforts will preclude setting aside untold hours to play a From Soft game.

Also yesterday my BIL and his family visited yesterday. My almost six year old nephew fell in love with Mario during the pandemic and really wants a Switch for his bday in August (spoilers his parents are getting him one and I’m helping select the games). Anyway he was going on and on about how much he wants to play New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe so I fired up my Wii U and showed popped in the disc.

He lost his mind. My life long heavy investment into Nintendo is finally paying off. I am the undisputed cool uncle.

Then we cooped through most of the first world and had a blast. Everyone eventually gathered around the couch and was hollering and gasping and rooting us on. It was a blast. Next time they visit I’ll be prepared to setup a four person session. It’ll be great.

Now I need to really put some thought into what to get him for his bday.

Replaying Xenoblade after 10 years, and some observations:

- It's much less anime than Xenoblade 2. I had to sell the sequel because I wasn't enjoying it THAT much. I wonder what happened.

- Really loving the exploration. Locations being so pretty makes it almost BotW levels of enjoyable

- They sure take their time with the really obvious twist of sword can cut mech, can't cut people. can't cut new mech. why?

- The boss music is pretty drat terrifying. At any moment loud guitars might start blaring but then you look around and a level 6 rabbit names Asswiper Jhonny is chasing you or some poo poo

- Riki shouldn't rule so hard, but making him a middle-aged mascot was a brilliant decision that elevates him above all similar characters

- Fashion sure is something. M100 set, in particular, is loving insane on every character
