I made Seitan once by hand, just to get an appreciation for it. Really time consuming for a product I wasn't particularly fond of eating, but it's nice to get the experience. Now on I'm just getting the Gluten from Bobby Redmill though.

yup it sucks and it's ruined just being able to talk about poo poo you like all over this forum, i feel like this is the legacy of the whole koala's march drama - it's a bummer that everything has to be black or white

anyways i have another complaint about the game, the tutorial is extremely long - not sure yet if it's ff13 long but at least five hours, on the other side of things they keep introducing new characters and opening up the world which is pretty great

Ack, I loving hate Reddit, browsing threads there is cumbersome and their up/downvote system is garbage. But then again you might be correct that attempting to get a good-faith discussion of just the game itself based on its own merits might be difficult here, unfortunately. Would the people that have decided they want nothing to do with the game not be able to just ignore the existence of a thread, the same way I completely ignore, say, the Sports forum, or FYAD? I mean, it took hundreds of people to make the game and I'm pretty sure it's a safe bet that the vast majority of them don't share the lovely views of the series' creator, is it fair to dismiss their efforts to create what seems like it might be a surprisingly decent product?

That said:

After struggling to complete single player games last year I’m being a lot more intentional and focused on what I play. And it’s working out, I completed three games in January.

I have been doing this too and I've finished off 10 games so far this year! Even with being quite busy with life and work. Feels pretty good.

please don't bother replying to the posters who have appeared and started posting here alongside the release of hogwarts game, though I'm sure it's a coincidence


mildly related but I've never really understood the reverence for Bully. not to say it's a bad game - I liked it at the time - but I'm just a bit surprised it stuck around as a cult classic.

I think it's because in it you can see the DNA for lifesims which were extremely novel at the time while still retaining the arcadiness and stylings of classic videogames

all you need to do is slam your feet into the air that it turns solid

it turns out air is non-Newtonian fluid when you punch it hard enough

I like how every character is named and you can encounter them anywhere, even in town. It genuinely feels like playing through an old 80s kids on bikes film.

skipped it because i didnt like gta3 beyond a few hours of loving around in the sandbox. watching an LP of Bully right now, and I don't think I'd enjoy this today, but I'd definitely play a Yakuza game set in a shady yakuza boarding school.

edit: was so hyped for jade empire but didnt get it for christmas and never bought it with my own money later. i mostly heard it was meh so never felt compelled to go back and give it a shot

I remember about a year after Jade Empire launched, Bioware sent out some surveys that indicated that they were considering a sequel in the same universe but far into the future and turning it into a Cyberpunk style setting. I thought it sounded really intriguing, but it clearly never went anywhere.
