Shoulda had Griffin review Nioh. Sometimes I get the impression he's the only one on staff who actually enjoys that kind of game.

A Polygon writer walks into a bar. The bartender looks at him and says "Get the gently caress out of here"

Something like 2% of people who own Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN on PS4 have never even launched the game.

I'm among them because I just haven't had time. And that's on top of physical copies of some games I haven't even opened yet. One of these days I'll stop buying things that look cool but I know I won't get around to.

I'm guessing stats like that come from the monthly free PS+ games that people download and never play.

I got the game yesterday and have been playing nonstop and I'm still in chapter 2 cause a buttload of Kiryu's substories kick off there.

I'm the quick and the deadly
I finally finished Kiryu's real estate side content and moved on with the story, and now I got to Majima's cabaret club stuff and the story has come to a halt again so I can't finish it.

I'm not sure I'll be done in time for Nioh :sweatdrop:

I didn't know you lived in Austin, I totally would have.

So I'm playing D44m for the first time and it's really good and fun and I see why people love it. Like my only criticism is that it could use a better damage indicator, but that's pretty small.

Battle Brothers is game kind of like Darkest Dungeon although it has a mortality rate just as high.

They were talking about the stupid nazi punching back and forth that has been going around recently because Austin Walker posted about it on twitter, instead of video games, so no actually steer very clear of it. Instead go to the Imp Zone thread
