Interestingly, the original doujin version of Higurashi had parries. I guess Umineko is a step down after all.

I just found out that Dragon Ball: The Breakers is out now, and has actually been out for a bit now. I thought it was still in development.

the credits are such a perfunctory part of the final product in the modern era that it's easy to miss that there's small armies of people hammering these things out, and automata didn't even have a gigantic purse to begin with

I thought people would get my incredibly subtle hint but I finished Nier. I’m glad I stuck through it to the end for the story even if the gameplay gets dull towards the end when it goes all in on hacking and bad guys shooting dozens of balls. the final sequence where you fight the idea of the story ending there is insanely good. whoever told me something good happens was a loving liar. Nothing good happens, the whole point of the end is that there is potential for something good to happen but not in the events of the game.

Good thing I don’t give a poo poo about 100%ing games lol

everything is too expensive, developers expected this stuff to make massive amounts of money right away and they didnt. The online gaming bubble is pretty much bursting in real time right now.

I don't care if you're a star, the moon, or the whole damn sky, you need to come back down to earth and remember where you came from
it turns out when everybody is relying on you to make a huge time and money commitment to a single game the market for those games shrinks dramatically.
