can we talk about videogame soundtracks a bit? i've been thinking about how my speed metal prog rock loving rear end was inspired by f zero, and i will take any opportunity to praise hotline miamis soundtrack as this loving song

I'm a big buzzkill and dweeb about spoilers on movies that I know I want to see so I queue up Carpenter Brut's Meet Matt Stryker and have my earphones ready to pop in during movie trailers. I did this a couple of times recently to try to completely avoid Rise of Skywalker trailers and holy moly, if I had known what a dumb movie it was gonna be I wouldn't have bothered.

Anyway, here's a good song from HM1 or 2:

dont take this the wrong way but the souls games are like dr who to me, i dont want to play them because of their fanbase. im probably wrong to think that

I totally get this. A lot of folks like to evangelize the difficulty of them and tell new players to just "get good" if they hit a boss they can't defeat. Honestly, the games aren't extremely difficult in general, they just kind of encourage a slower more careful pace that most third person action games. It's less "holy poo poo this is the hardest game ever" and more "if you run into this spooky castle at 100mpg tilt there's a good chance that 10 skeletons are going to surround and kill you, slow down and really take in the spooky castle, bud!"

Breath of the Wild felt like they made an amazing engine with brilliant mechanics and then just didn't get to the content. Like you never find any truly unique items or cool stuff in the world, just Korok seeds, and the shrines are all really small, unsatisfying dungeons.

It's like the opposite of most open world games that have insane amount of content but crap gameplay, it's amazing gameplay with crap content.

When I played I felt like I was constantly stumbling across cool stuff, whether it was a new piece of armour, a weapon I'd never seen before (or one I'd had ages ago and then broken and really liked), new ingredients, a beautiful piece of scenery, some sort of crumbling ruin, or even just a nice hang-gliding spot. Couldn't swing a cat in that game without hitting something that made me go "oooooo".

At least BotW finally gave us female Link, although for some reason they hosed up a bunch of the dialogue.

You can play as Zelda in Cadence of Hyrule, the game like Crypt of the Necrodancer. I played most of the game as her.

this moment has been burnt into my memory, because i like to play videogames to have fun. everyone tho, finds fun in different ways.
i think this is why i would be bad at streaming because it would just be me going in and out of menus and then trying to climb something that can obviously not be climbed

that was the moment when it clicked for me, when i realised that if you took on two enemies at once in real life they would just take it in turns stabbing you while you were distracted by the pain of the other guy stabbing you, so knockback is pretty fair in that light

initially i played it like unmodded 3rd person skyrim and just swung my sword in vaguely the right direction

i like dark souls 1

got streets of rouge...one of the mutators you can get from the beginning is infinite ammo apparently. im playing a soldier with infinite ammo and it seems like its trivializing the game so far. waiting for the other shoe to drop

The Hotline Miami soundtrack is so good and the day I found out it was a collection of properly titled mp3s stored locally that you could just move to your phone was a good one.

Hey, you're not the only one!

I tried out Morroblivion and it was pretty cool but also inherited some really rough edges from Oblivion, I'm hoping Skywind has a bit more polish and maybe I'll finally finish Bloodmoon & Tribunal

(I actually got distracted writing a mod that would let me build my own fast travel network by placing portals, then stopped playing)

Pro Target

I obtained a One Credit Clear of Mushihimesama (Original Mode). its not impressive compared to a lot of other shoot em up accomplishments but i still feel happy about it.. its nice to put a lot of time into something and have it pay off; i plan to continuje to play, and progress to Maniac Mode

This is super cool! Is Mushi Futari a sequel to this? I've played that on 360 but have only 1ccd it on Easy Mode. It's pretty easy so that's not really a brag.

i wish shmups had better names so I could talk about the one im messing with on switch but i only play bullet hell nonsense when i am way way way too high to remember anything

it’s like ダダsomethingsomethingsomething and seems neat but I know nothing about shmups at all other than really liking warning forever and ikaruga a decade+ ago

Yeah futari is the sequel. id like to play it too but AFAIK theres no way to do it on PC and im certainly not gonna buy a japanese 360 so when it comes to cave games i gotta make due with what can be reasonably/accurately emulated and the table scraps they gave us on steam

it’s the one with a spaceship on the home screen banner if that helps (it doesn’t)

Id to get ESP Ra.De andd ikaruga on Switch but i only play that thing in portable mode so id need to get the flip grip to make it even remotely feasible and ive almost expended my yearly budget for Niche Video Game Hardware 2 weeks into 2020

It'll play on a US 360, but I think the game only came out in Japan.

it is so good. finished my first run with the doctor the other day. infinite ammo makes it too easy, you can just tranquilize everyone and trivially complete the big quest at the same time. started a gorilla run now and it's cool that other gorillas follow you between levels
