I doubt I'll bother after this gen because we've reached the point where they can't see much more improvement without being completely remade.

Their last ps exclusive was a half baked C- of a platform game overshadowed by GOAT nex machina that launched 3 weeks earlier on pc/ps4 and the one before that was a diablo clone nobody bought.

What was the Diablo clone I don't even remember it

E: oh Alienation I forgot that was them, I got it on ps+ and played it once I think

Dragon's Dogma is my most owned game at four copies but one was from PS+.

The interesting thing is that they were quite happy to dub the Fist of the North Star game so it's possible that Yakuza not having an English dub is an artistic choice rather than a monetary one.

Love it when games let you start them up but you can't do anything but stare at the title screen while it finishes installing.

Man, Dead Rising 4 isn't even amusingly bad it's just bleh. A cautionary tale of being focus grouped into nothingness.

it's weird that both ni no kuni games got such massive praise to the point that it drowned out anything else when it seems like general opinions on both are pretty divided in general

They have a good first impression that carried some people through the crappy everything after the first few hours

i've determined that wily tower is the best classic mega man game

it's a shame that it's locked behind completing 1-3 and it's in a genesis game that most people will never play, cause it genuinely has some of the most inventive level and boss design in the series

I discovered only recently that it straight up doesn't exist in the US because Wily Wars was only released on the Sega internet thing and you didn't get the stuff that unlocks after you beat 1-3

Decided to play through ZoE1 for the first time since 2002 before I started the new HD ZoE2, I remembered it being short but playing through a whole game in one go is something I haven't done for a while lol.

There's nothing wrong with ZoE1 that having a bunch more missions and more enemy types wouldn't fix, fortunately ZoE 2 exists for that

Despite how old it is, the combat system in ZoE is surprisingly good.

They got the control system pretty much spot on first time, which was no mean feat in 2001.

Needed an inverted aiming option, but manual aiming isn't something you really use often anyway

I was kind of expecting the xbone to come around as people realized that it was a fine console despite the marketing shittiness like what happened with the ps3 but it never happened

I'm never getting an xbox though so whatever

It's a completely pointless console if you have literally anything else that plays games

Good morning friends. Today I am going to play Wolfenstein: New Order and probably Etrian Odyssey Untold, because games where you have to draw maps are extremely cool and I love them. With Wolfenstein I have gotten into the trap of getting all the collectibles and reaching Platinum/100% Completion, because those things satisfy me immensely and they seem easy enough to do. I am tired of the dumb cutscenes which have to play at least partially to cover up loading but I am at 74% and I have unlocked a mode with infinite ammo and absurdly overcharged health on the hardest mode so I am pumped to see what else unlocks. Solving even a cheap math puzzle to get the unlocks is actually pretty cool and feels sort of like you’re actually breaking a code. Unlocking Perks by doing cool poo poo is also really satisfying. They really went out of their way to make you feel cool for accomplishing stuff, I like it.

I have Old Blood and New Colossus queued up and then I actually have a PS2 Wolfenstein and one for 360 (apparently just called “Wolfenstein” :geno:) and maybe I will play those after I get all the sidetrophies in Arkham City. If anybody read all of that and somehow has opinions on those other Wolfenstein games, please let me know.

Thank you for reading my video game opinions blog.

Do not try and Platinum The New Colossus, it has the single worst hard mode/trophy I've ever seen
