i was really worried they'd not release that because the Katamari Damacy rerelease sold poorly, maybe because it's a niche game and also because they released it on the same day as Super Smash Bros Ultimate

Hell yeah. But I just want a port of Katamari Forever, basically the Greatest Hits of Katamari.

Also because they didn't update the controls to be easier to use like the more recent Katamaris, so it felt really stiff to play.

Do trademarks like this really mean a game is coming? Can we take it at face value?

If so that's a near D1 purchase. I loved finally getting the chance to play and experience Katamari Damacy (the SOUNDTRACK!) that more of it is a instant-need in my heart and life.

Sometimes if they’re just renewing a trademark it means very little but in this case there’s nothing with that specific title that currently exists and if they were just making a trademark to combat trolls they wouldn’t have added that “Royal Reverie” bit at the end. This feels like a pretty safe bet to come out. I’m hoping we get a proper announce tomorrow

I'm not sure why you'd need to trademark that Tales name. I'm pretty sure those words have never been put in exactly that order in the entire history of the English language.

I just finally bought KD Reroll because I needed more rolling in my life, and We Love Katamari is my favourite of the series. I used to play the hell out of that one on my ex's PS2 like.... poo poo, 15 years ago. I was just thinking how I wish they'd port that one, too. This is fantastic!

I'm imagining it like that scene in Gladiator when he has his hand in the field while walking by, except he's in a go-kart and it's Mario he's driving by.

Dread plays so well. I'm in the 3rd area now and it's been fun moving around. I feel like I've been railroaded though, which I don't love for this type of game, on the other hand I also don't want to put much thought into it so it's ok if I'm being guided in specific ways.

I won't say I'm not enjoying it, but it wasn't the type of game I wanted to play right right now, still I'm sure I'll ease into it. Same thing happened with their Samus Returns, took me about half-way through to really get into it. The stage design is very cool, but less organic than I would've liked. I look forward to seeing different environments.

There are a lot of sequence breaks early on, but they’re not obvious on your first run. Just keep going where the game indicates and look up sequence breaks and stuff later.

There are a few areas with different environments but it’s mostly pretty similar, especially the EMMI sections, which was a little disappointing.

I have more faith in this announcement because it's not just Namco reregistering the Katamari Damacy trademark in general, it's registering the specific name "We Love Katamari: Reroll", which is much more specific. It's the name subtitle as the re-release they already put out.

I play on a projector, but often do table-top. And holy cow, does Dread look amazing on an OLED. Just incredible looking.

Beat the 2nd(?) boss it went fine. Game's fine. I'm getting into this. Took me what? 3 hours?

the final boss is probably my favorite part of dread but how long it takes to get the morph ball is definitely a contender

Love the new water area. I love stormy scenes. I still don't get why everything feels like a building though, but whatever. The animation director is brilliant. The ennui and attitude of Samus is so clear in her simple actions. It's really well done. Like as overwrought as she was in Other M, she delivered something. Same thing here. Except the delivery is perfect.

Anyway, it's NOT a chill game and I still want that so I just got Dorf Romantik and I don't give a gently caress. It's going to be a very Metromantik Christmas.

Something that's not obvious from this... if you do a team game, you can decide which team gets which items and have it totally be unbalanced

This means I can play against my kid and give me like no good items and them all the good stuff as a handicap.

The speedrun community is kinda in a tizzy about this. What settings do you allow? Whatever you decide, how do you confirm it? It'll settle down, but it's an interesting bit of chaos to drop into a group that hadn't had to think about it before.

The bosses in Dread are a weirdly steep difficulty spike, it's true. I mean, I really enjoyed them but they must be seriously off-putting for other people who aren't looking for a Dark Souls bullet hell difficulty wall, especially since the rest of the game is so much easier.

I didnt find any of them that tough on a first playthrough except for The Experiment that you see in Dairon early on before its body gets hijacked by the X and the final boss. Everything's pretty tame in this game if you did endgame stuff in Hollow Knight or played Dark Souls before. I'd still say it's the hardest Metroid by a comfortable margin
