Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."

I need to get back to Bloodborne at some point. I never actually beat it and I haven't played since the Old Hunters came out.

Jesus, that was a bit over 7 years ago.

Forspoken is a PS+ game waiting to happen

I swear I've heard dialog like "that is something I do now" half a dozen times in fantasy/superhero stuff in the past five years, and it's not something anyone would say. It's the type of language that appears in comment sections a lot, maybe in reference to some Internet video of a predator like a shark doing something terrifyingly clever, but it's not anyone would actually say when meeting said shark because they'd be more preoccupied with said shark.

oh now I remember where

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/they-fly-now

No one interrupts people that much, either, they do it more than in movies most of the time, because you want to be able to understand what the characters are saying, but when movies and video games do it on purpose like this, it sounds fake.

I wouldn't be that expressive if someone told me I won the lottery, either, I'd just say "wow, this is great and solves a lot of my problems" but maybe that's just me, because I'd be turning my attention real soon to how to use it to solve those problems. Real people are more focused on what to do next and survival strategy than meta like that, and this kind of writing is all about the meta

Critic reviews for Forspoken drop tomorrow morning, so i'll see how those pan out, but I see myself just waiting until the game is really cheap. I'll at least absolutely be buying Dead Space Remake on release day though.

i got the demo because i really like the environments at least, but it's a full action rpg on the FFXV engine, which means the writing is only the start of its problems

you feel like the air is made of treacle trying to move around

DS1R is the only real game on my radar for a while now aside from wo long, which is a shame, although it does look pretty loving dope at least

Nier ending B I loving knew there wasn't anybody on the moon.

Also ending T. Doing the credits super fast is fun, but I feel like it would have been much better if they had played the credits in their full. Ideally unskippable.

presumably that's just in cutscenes, right? She doesn't have incidental dialogue?

Evil tristrat portraits (cont.)






I’m very happy with how extraordinarily xp gains scale. Like most srpgs your guys only gain xp when they perform an action, but if they’re below the map’s “recommended” level they’ll gain substantially more than the regular 10% of a level for each action (the opposite is true if you’re above the recommended level). Like, at least 50% more for being one level beneath the recommendation, up to 1000% more if you’re far below it (basically a level up every action)

So this goes a long way towards a common srpg issue I’ve always had, the “ok well might as well throw a rock at my ally’s head, for the xp” problem. It’s still KINDA there, since you still only get xp from performing actions, but ending a turn without doing anything no longer always feels like a missed opportunity.

Now, whether or not the game needed xp at all is a different question

In about 15 hours the only real anime trope I’ve experienced is a cutscene where two Powerful Warriors were fighting and they each did a move that involved jumping up in the sky and powering up their attack
