Cod is fun! I wish there was more in the two maps to show off the gameplay changes. The sort of shoulder cam view when watching teammates when you’ve died is very cool.

Second Sekiro update: I suck at this game. I get that each boss tries to teach you something eg Lady Butterfly taught me to learn which of her moves allowed get a counter hit in and which I'd have to just block, the blazing bull taught me that attacks you wouldn't expect to be able to parry can be parried, that dude before Genichiro taught me to dodge left but hosed if I know what Genichiro is teaching me beyond "git gud lol".

I'll give it a few more goes but I've had a dozen attempts and have got to his final stage once. I even watched a video to see what to do and I've got no idea how to hit the intensity enough to stagger him, I'm always the one that needs to back off due to poorly timed parries.

Looking back on it I think Genny is there to teach you to stand your ground and memorise his moves. No unnecessary running or spamming dodge. Just walk up to him like you’re the terminator. Remember blocking negates all damage so it might be worth blocking until a move comes along where you know you can parry

Would it be a dull streaming game? I genuinely do not know. I know part of the fun is my reactions to things but it feels like a lengthy dialogue game is not quite as funny as watching me try to jump between platforms in super mario 64 rainbow ride, or avoid birds in FFX.

Sorry, Inscryption is next. I promised :)

:dukedoge:
OKay that's fine

But when it comes to 'is it a boring streaming game':
1) the game itself is funny
2) you will hecan'tkeepgettingawaywithit.gif your way through most of it which itself will be a spectacle and
3) also completely forget what you're doing and invent characters/storylines/motivations all on your own, again giving the viewer much to laugh about

:yeah:

Although 99% of what I listen to is from souls games.

I’m hoping the sound quality on my incoming Pulse is up to scratch! I have a paid of DT 990s but after two and a bit years the sound’s started cutting out when the cable is in the wrong place. It’s fine for the laptop for some reason where I may have to twiddle it every hour or so but is unbearable on the DualSense when I have sound crackling or cutting out in one ear every two and a half seconds.

Also playing Tunic which I’m enjoying more than Death’s door, although it doesn’t feel quite as responsive. I’m trying not to look up anything about it but it seems even more opaque than all the from games put together.

In other news I got my Moderna booster and feel only a bit poo poo rather than incredible poo poo.

The disco Elysium soundtrack is great in game but I did try to listen to it on YouTube absent context and it just doesn’t work. Also @BP good choice on the mirror’s edge soundtrack that rocked.

Shout out to Majora’s mask for having one of the best soundtracks of all time.

I was suddenly struck by how Nintendo’s soundtracks have gone way down the drain ever since Mario’s music turned into that weird incessant BWAH-ing and Zelda adopted free form Jazz. Go back!!

Absolutely sucks about the Disco people but they’ll have no problem either making their own company or being invested in by another (hopefully with a bit of due diligence for their intentions). Allegedly the sequel is still well on the way, and I would assume there’ll be quite a few gently caress you’s to their apparently dreadfully criminal investors hidden in it.
It is all, however, extremely thematically appropriate.


Giving Overwatch a go on it’s last day. I used to play it every loving day for like two years then I suddenly stopped and can’t really remember why. It might be good for the Tourist crew to try overwatch 2 this week if anyone’s interested? (????)

I’m watching the Veeg Inscryption stream after the fact because he’s been playing the final fantasy graphical excel plug in for what feels like seven months and then moved on to the next game way after his bed time so I wasn’t prepared.

Already some good moments:

- gets almost instakilled by a bear and says “okay that’s fine”
- is told to go get the thing by the safe, immediately looks at the safe, and says “I don’t know what that is”
- is generally not paying a lot of attention to the rules and library, leading him to invent his own rules, which is equal parts frustrating and funny
-lvg says “you won’t die in the next five minutes” exactly five minutes before the stream ends

In my defense, I had just played 7 and a half hours straight of FFX including the end and my mind was still in that frame of reference for video gaming. The whole experience was amazing and I am glad.

Also card games are not my forte. There is going to be a LOT of me putting the wrong thing down or misunderstanding, based on how a few of my slay the spire runs have gone. But also, I live by my own rules - you know this ;)

It'll be fun to watch your own first few goes again once you've beaten the game, because it'll look like some sort of mad idiot man throwing cards in the bin and down slits in the floorboards and needlessly gouging your teeth out in comparison. Slay the Spire is a huge guilty pleasure but I would say quite a bit (a lot) harder, although it will feel like you're making progress faster than Inscryption

I also thought I just “wasn’t good” at deck games but fundamentally, apart from the mental arithmetic there’s not too much difference between balancing damage types in souls games or picking the exact attachments for a gun in COD. Maybe that last one is a stretch.

But ironclad is solid fun - and probably the easiest to win with, if you go all in on block

I remember every day because it was the best game released this year and probably ever.

Imagine not sitting down on December 12th or whatever and coming to the conclusion that no game came even remotely close to the almighty triumph that was Elden Ring, this year at the very least.

You can’t, it’s impossible. Unless you have spiders on the brain making you believe some nonsense interchangeable final fantasy game came out this year and that it wasn’t garbage
