Except for the very loud and angry minority that sends death threats to reviewers for not giving perfect marks to their favorite multi-million dollar franchise, does anyone really read or care about reviews?

Ideally they would provide more exposure to lesser known games and help people know before they went in stuff like Cyberpunk being a bugfest (though i think people expected that? not a game I cared much about)

It also does lead to situations like that one review of fire emblem fates where the reviewer complained about how it was too hard when he put it on hard and classic mode.

i'm not saying videogames make you violent but i am saying i wouldn't trust someone who is good at fps around my kids and wouldn't hire them and they shouldn't be allowed to vote, but i'm not calling them monsters since that would be rude to monsters. is killing someone in a videogame as bad as doing so in real life? anyone who isn't abjectly evil would agree there is no difference, and especially in the eyes of god where a thought about crime is equivalent to doing it. all im saying is if people who are good at shooters want to be treated better maybe they should take it easy on me and let me get a few kills now and then, is that so much to ask?

If you get enough kills with the piano wire you unlock a special new mission where you have to break into a prison and assassinate a special target, but it's kind of easy, you can just totally ignore the security cameras because they dont work right for some reason

Gal Gun of course.

Also, Receiver 2 eventually reveals itself to be that, explaining all the things it has told you about fighting depression and suicidal thoughts in yourself or others can be applied in a plane of existence beyond the game's universe, before booting you out of the game.

"My brain is amazing! It's full of wrinkles, and... Uh... Wait... What am I trying to say?"
i need to spend a bit more time with fatum betula but playing it i spend a lot of time thinking about how much more i like the flatter/more abstract spaces of old games. this is assuredly from decades of soaking my brain in them but i can more clearly recall the little clearing with a pond and a cat person or the lake island house in FB more than the extremely detailed areas of modern games i've played equally recently. this isn't really a judgement call saying that they're better, and more saying that i'm glad stuff like FB/the modern 'boomer shooter' renaissance exist because they trend toward looking more like how i want a video game to look.

related, though i think i like a couple of other battle royales better as games, i don't think any have put out a map with as much charm as erangel. for me, at least, the map has (had if they changed it i guess) the right mix of kind of looking like poo poo while also having a fuckload of memorable and interesting locations. i can't quite put my finger on why exactly i think the map works so well. erangel feels like a map you have to play pubg around, while stuff like apex has maps that were made to play apex in, if that distinction makes any sense to anyone else.

i think part of it is the people interested in making those kind of throwback games now probably just have a bit more interest in making weird spaces. esp in fatum, thats clearly the thing the dev wanted more than anything

I saw the comments about Danganronpa (sp?) earlier and I agree: I did actually play the game and stopped playing after the second or third execution in which someone got turned into "delicious butter" by going around and around very fast, and then was eaten on toast. I didn't like it, it was gross and the plot didn't seem like it was worth playing to see.
