I've read that kiryu's super move in y8 basically unlocks him from the rpg system for a window of time and he gets to run around beating the crap out of enemies like normal. so folks get that

Would that I could call it progress

Trading kiryus stoic frown for poochiebans vacuous simper

Or seeking comfort in the assless boomer takayuki

I can only call it misery

I'm trying to wrap my head around the assless boomer thing but otherwise Ichiban is a good boy and a fun protagonist. I like how where kiryu has always worked hard to isolate himself Ichiban finds strength in his connection with the people around him. It's a very different theme and no less endearing imo

Ichiban is like 5 times the protagonist Kiryu is because I stopped giving a poo poo about Kiryu's stoic personality about 30 minutes into the game. With Ichiban there was a clear underdog story going on and he reacted like a human being to poo poo going on around him.

On another note, what's a good console game that isn't a Nintendo one and after the 16 bit era that people would recommend, I've run out of cool games for a few days.

good to know! yeah it looks cool, but I'm waiting for it to come out of early access (which its been for several years) before I play it. i feel like those types of games should only be played at 1.0+

Yeah vet stuff is expensive. A couple years ago it cost us $5k to find out we had to out down our dog.


I won't buy any new games due to having too many games that need to be finished. I will pick up the last dysmantle dlc, but that isn't a new game.

Lol, I just took my cats to the vet and the bill was $100 more than last year for absolutely no reason.

Every time I see Goatse, I think of Maureen. That's the last thing I saw. Before I blacked out. The sight of that man's anus.

Lol my vet cut their hours to the point where I can't get an appointment without taking a day off of work and also they're booked solid 6 months out. the vet industry is collapsing and I'm gonna just chalk it up to private equity since that seems to be the reason why everything sucks now.

while there is a task list, this is the first game to not track or rate completion - not even an achievement for it, which is refreshing even if I cleaned it up anyway. they finally established reasonable metrics for a lot of poo poo - no more playing a minigame 100 times or something similarly soul crushing, for the most part it's just do the full variety and about as many times played to achieve that. everything felt real tight and breezy and I hope that continues into y8. a real blessing after the slog that was Ishin

I don't know if it was because the shorter game length, but Object Destroyer was a huge pain in the rear end for me this game. I spent the entire first 30 hours of the game constantly running into bars to chrage my heat gauge and chain-smashing trashcans and bikes over peoples' heads which kind of sucked the fun out of combat for me.

I agree most of the stuff was better, but if I never had to play another game of Virtua Fighter or Shogi in my life I'd be happy. Shogi seems extra obnoxious because they give you an item to tell you the best next move, but you have to wait 30 seconds for it to churn out a move.

come close grasshopper, as I tell you a secret: start a fight near any convenience store, then ignore the goons and run inside. smash everything, every shelf, every rack, absolutely everything breakable because it all counts. each individual bottle on that shelf? they all count. smashing the store front windows? counts. if you totally clean the place out you'll get over 100 objects destroyed. move on to the next convenience store and repeat until finished
