I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

I bought Elden Ring for my PS4, and it runs fine. :shrug:

There's plenty of breaks to save, just keep in mind you're likely going to have sessions of just cutscenes at times since the game has just a much a focus on its story and dialogue choices as it does the tactical combat.

It also auto-saves frequently. I am in the same boat with time constraints and still having a blast. I actually care about the story and the characters are quickly growing on me, so I don’t mind a short session of cutscenes. I also greatly appreciate that you can hit (X) on any speaking character to bring up a portrait and description. Very helpful as I tried to keep track of who was in which house at the beginning. You can also hit (L) to bring up the chat log and then (X) on any text box if you missed someone in a scene.

The download-version apparently makes you pay a couple extra-bucks to get you both PS4 and PS5 versions. It was 69 bucks over here, which gave me a little chuckle. :v:

Anyway, if I ever get a PS5, I now already have 3 games for it! (Besides Elden Ring, two more of my PS4-games come with free PS5-upgrades.)

Same. Though I do have a projector. It still comes down to neither having the money or the space for another console. The Switch is a small console, it fits well in modern urban environments.

From has a shaky history with PC releases, I'm not surprised it had a rocky launch. I haven't had a PC strong enough for their stuff in years, so I've been over the moon that Old Jewelry runs well on the old PS4.

I distantly remember the original DS2 release on PC being kind of smooth, but that one was also the lower res version.

I didn't learn about the PS4 version for quite some time. It really didn't look like it'd have one, I'll be honest.

I never really saw the official announcement, learned about the game even nearing release through the initial wave of beta-test first impressions

You can turn the voices off, which is the right decision in 90% of rpgs with voice acting that expect you to take the story seriously.

The voice acting is fine in Triangle Strategy. The main character’s performance is a little flat though.

I have $45 in Best Buy certificates that I'm kind of tempted to use on Triangle Strategy, but I feel like that's nothing a FFT replay can't fix. I'll probably save them for Re-Boot Camp, which I'm weirdly looking forward to.

I've never been into Kirby, though. I realize this is my loss and I'm very sorry. Planet Robobot was really good, though.

I thought this once too and then I thought about it and realized I have played nearly every mainline Kirby game, turns out I love Kirby and always end up getting their games.
