RIP to anyone who didn't get a PS5 in time to try the weird and rarely used cards that let you jump to specific levels sometimes. I never trusted them.

I tried the new resume session thing on Steel Rising and it popped up a warning that if I used it I'd lose all my soulsanima lol

Finally getting around to ff7 remake
Anyone here see an issue if I just set the combat to easy?

Other than being too easy I guess not

Maybe I’m just an idiot but I can’t seem to figure out how combat is supposed to work.
Granted I’m not far along in the game but does anyone have some general rules for combat in this game?

Always switch character, enemies automatically aggro the character you're controlling also your other characters won't do anything other than auto attack and build up ATB much slower.

Really? I always found 2 to be much easier than the first one in general but I can totally see why you had trouble with it.

I always found 2 harder since it doesn't really have anything as game breaking as mini chainsaws + extension books. Iirc the wolverine claws plus one of the smoothies was close though.

All Dead Souls needs to be decent is a control revamp and even without it was worth it for Majima with a shotgun

So something I’ve always wondered about suikoden since reading about it back in the day in PSM. If you have over 100 party members how the hell do you even manage that? Do you maintain their state, equipment and level ups? How do you even keep track of their abilities?

Most of the 108 stars are people that hang out at your castle doing stuff, there are probably 30-40 actual party characters and equipment is pretty basic, characters don't have different weapons you just use a blacksmith to make them more powerful, catch up exp is huge so it only takes a couple of fights to get them around the same level, abilities are dependent on what rune they have equipped and you can just swap them around etc. Basically everything is as simple as possible lol
Party size is relatively large too, six people instead of the usual four.

You usually just end up with a few favourites you use all the time for their team up skills or whatever + what the game forces you to use.

Wo Long seems really cool from the demo despite potentially being a little bit too familiar. Seems like they've toned down loot which will probably satisfy a lot of people after Nioh's dumptrucks full of swords.

Seemed about the same as Nioh to me but less than SoP vomiting loot at you constantly lol

Oh I misread the instructions on the Dragon blood tear and used it straight from my inventory instead of at the rest site. It restored a single resurrect symbol and so everyone is still all sick and wheezy. Kinda hoping there's more soon.

Beat the Wo Long demo and then got a “failed to send clear data” error. Guess I’m not getting the hat.

Could be worse the Xbox version was unplayable til this morning and still have error messages that wouldn't crash the game but were extremely likely to get you killed after that lol

Tried the Wo Long demo and it's OK I guess. Is there really nothing you can do about red dot attacks other than parry with correct timing? I keep getting my rear end kicked by a tiger

You can vainly attempt to mash the dodge button then go 'oh yeah this doesn't work very well' for the 50th time

Make sure when the ghost festival appears you get caught by it, there's a certain amount of souls you can only get from there and its appearance is random.

Also I don't know if this is a balance issue or just the demo, but I chose the "debuff" element to start with. 3/4 spells completely sucked and none of them were debuffs. The two offensive spells were poison damage spells that did little to no damage. None of them were worth casing except the one that applied poison to my weapon, which was amazing, but still not a drat debuff. Not sure if the other tracks you could choose where much better where offensive magic was worth using?

You don't have to stick with the spells you start with, there were about 20 unlocked for the demo and you could change them to anything at the rest place. I found the fire DoT spells extremely useful and carried me through the boss.

I've been playing Scarlet Nexus lately and been finding it surprisingly enjoyable. I thought it'd be a fairly simple action RPG with an anime plot with psychic powers all over the place, but the combat gives you a ton of options to play with and the story gets bonkers in interesting ways. My only complaint is that there are two storylines to play through, but while they each experience their own stuff, they (the characters, that is) share information with each other so I don't think playing through the other one will give any interesting revelations.

It's not too bad until they meet up at the halfway point, then it's basically just the same unfortunately.

You almost have to admire SE’s commitment to mediocrity for the next generation of console and PC gaming. It’s a good thing FF14 is beloved because otherwise I do know what they have going for them. A couple more remakes of the last decent DQ title maybe?

I'll take SE's throwing poo poo at walls to see what sticks approach rather than AAA western gaming releasing two games a year which are all the same any day.
