Rolled credits in Elden Ring. Game good.

Now I can get back to finishing off the Malazan books. Halfway through book 9, really excited to see where this whole thing is going to go :D

Me too, about one hour ago. What a game, it's been a long time since a big game has held my attention for the entire thing, I truly never got bored of anything. In an alternate reality to yours, I'm 11/14 books through Wheel of Time and also having a good old time.

Gave the demo for The Planet Crafter a shot, and I think it may genuinely be the worst game I've played since Starforge. Somehow it has Overwhelmingly Positive reviews, and I have no clue how. The whole game is an incremental idle game made with what looks like Unity public assets, running ridiculously poorly for what it is, with zero meaningful gameplay beyond "go gather random rocks that spawn on the ground, make our poorly-described machines to slowly tick up unlock counters, repeat". The game looks and feels like the developer's first and only video game was Subnautica and then they heard of idle games and decided "I want to make one!" in the only engine they understood.

I wish time refunds existed, because I didn't spend a cent and still feel cheated for my time. God, I haven't been this unhappy with a game in a long time.

Lol. Also I didn't realize they were decoupling the PvP and PvE to get the PvP out first, wasn't the whole point of it being a sequel that it had the PvE?

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

New Monkey Island!! I loved the original so much as a kid. My friends and I used my moms tape recorder to make a “film” about it. It was just a line by line recreation of the 3 pirate leaders in Scumm Bar scene.

The Maxter Gundam makes sense as a character in the game, he's very punch but also has revolvers and a surfboard. So he's a close range threat with some midrange options and a great movement gimmick

I think people still have it in their minds that Overwatch is the same outrageous phenomenon it was when it launched without realizing just how terrifically Blizzard's mismanagement has sunk it. It's not proper dead, but its foothold is so tenuous after Valorant's launch that anything that intrudes on its remaining market share could butt it off the ledge completely.

Alright just gotta beat the last Ultimate Coliseum Cup Z or whatever and then I'm done with Kirby and the Forgotten land, which makes me sad- not disappointed with the world remix postgame bosses- decent bit of challenge as always for Kirby postgame stuff

of course Kirby games aren't really about challenging you but it' a fun little bonus at the end to really let the gameplay/combat stretch its legs

Maybe there'll be a little DLC sometime down the line or maybe I'll come back to it for a bit later on

or just another game built off of this new 3D Kirby framework
