i still think the steam deck looks very unwieldy to actually play but I've come to the uncomfortable realization that getting one would let me play way more cool indie games that i really wish would hurry up and come to switch

I'm still working from home a lot, and most of my gaming is at the same desk that I work at.
The big appeal of the Steam Deck for me is to be able to still play a bunch of PC titles but to do it on the couch away from my workspace.

yeah this is the main reason i have like zero interest in a gaming pc

i bought signalis on my switch but idk when i'll get around to playing it

i've been playing through the mgs and re series with my partner and by happy coincidence we're up to my favorites in both series, rising and 4, i'm very excited. so signalis will have to at least wait until after 4

Please update us on you and your partner's analysis of 4's "Johnny poops in a barrel" scene and its contribution to the series' antiwar message

my opinion of mgs4's story is that whenever it's just snake, otacon, sunny, raiden, ocelot, or vamp on screen the story is pretty good, but as soon as any of meryl, campbell, johnny, naomi, drebin, eva, or big boss can be seen it instantly nosedives into the garbage

A bold move to be sure but it doesn't compare to Looper putting Sonic 2006 on his GOTY list last year.

i was pretty busy this weekend so I'm only now reading the goty countdown but gotta take a break to say, 1 that wasn't me that was andrast. i put sonic mania. 2 I'd appreciate it if you call me they

i started up elden ring finally but it seems to prominently feature the worst type of video game compass and there's no way to remove it without turning the whole hud off, so unfortunately i have to say the game is fail

bad end theater is really neat. each character has a color associated with them and the way dramatic scenes will blend them when multiple characters are involved can get quite striking for a game with such a simple art style

I started playing Nier

don't be dissuaded by people saying the sidequests aren't important, the tedium is partly the point and they're the sources of some of the best dialogue and interactions in the game

also no way, brother nier owns and a lot of the dynamics as written make way more sense with him than dad nier

If you had no game consoles and were going to buy just one game console I think the current XBox offering, inclusive of Game Pass, is probably the best value.
