I got the easy (bad) ending of Castlevania SOTN. I looked up how to get a series of different endings, and I just don’t care enough to reload a save and keep going on something I wouldn’t have found without a guide. Roll credits is enough for me to wrap up a game.

Good game, the ending I got makes it a surprisingly short game though. I like how loopy the castle is, though I didn’t love the traversal.
That's not really an ending. It's more of a Game Over with a cutscene. If you're not digging the game then fair enough but you're not even close to the end. Killing Richter at that point is basically "with this character's death, the thread of prophecy is severed" from Morrowind.

It's a pretty significant chunk of content, including a lot of character upgrades and a lot of bosses

How's the 360 era Bionic Commando? I'm primarily looking for cool traversal. It's $2 atm.

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:

Which one? Rearmed is commonly considered a great remake of the original. 2009 was panned pretty hard at the time and its failure to sell tanked the studio, but it's one of my favorite games of that generation. If you wanna know, it has the best skill-based swinging of all time.
Yeah Re-Armed is great and has great traversal, it's basically the only NES era platformer to not have a jump button, instead you ONLY have your arm.

Re-Armed 2 is console only but emulatable, it added a jump button so it's not as good.

Bionic Commando (3D) tries to do the bionic arm gimmick in 3D, but doesn't get it quite right, there's a lot of instakill radiation zones you can accidentally swing into, making it really frustrating at the start. Once you get the hang of it and get some upgrades however you can really become an unstoppable terror, swinging around Federal Hall, raining death and destruction, destroying giant mechs with a couple of well timed kicks of your iron boots, etc. Once you put in the time it does feel great and there's nothing quite like it in gaming since Spiderman doesn't use guns. But it's a bit of a slog to get there.

3D also includes the single dumbest plot twist in the history of videogames, delivered by Steve Blum himself, so it's worth getting through most of the game for that.

Thank gently caress! I am glad to hear this. I had thought I saw in the Disgaea 6 thread that it was back to the new level cap.

I looked up some Pathfinder character builds for Wrath of the Righteous, just to know if there's anything I should watch out for, and of course on the internet every protag is a dragon-blooded celestial lich monk sorcerer duelist. I get that people, or at least people who post about rpgs, get a lot of enjoyment out of playing as a nonsensical clown god, but it sucks for me, the lonely, indecisive gamer who likes the RP part of RPGs but also likes the G part enough to look up character builds on the internet...
