Got it for $30, I have 25 hours logged and I've only finished 2/5 towers. Huge game, neat premise, extremely well done and it's amazing it's a v0.1 EA thing. 10.

Game is not a 10/10, but darn is it close :marseynoyouzoom: for being made by such a small :marseyminipixel: team and so soon in early access. By far one of the most complete early access :marsey403: games, but I'm still waiting :marseystare2: for a full release personally. This also makes me surprised :marseyopera: we still haven't got a proper pokemon :marseysquirtle2: competitor, all that tried just didn't have enough :marseyitsallsotiresome: going :marseysal3: for them.

It's a pretty solid game, finished the last boss the other day. No story really to speak of but idc. Just beat up pogeys and train em and kick butt. It also caused Pokemon to bleed which is always good. Good game. If they update it more maybe it'll be higher but for now I give it a 7. Still good but lacking in several obvious ways.

I just recently finished Horizon Forbidden West and the DLC for it. The gameplay is genuinely a lot of fun and the overall story is enjoyable, but the characterization for the bad guys in the series took a tumble compared to the first one; it's peak :soyjakfat: "aren't billionaires evil" writing. There's a character in the series called Ted Faro who's responsbile for everything in the series, and they changed him from being someone who was prone to mistakes and becomes so guilt ridden that he would commit awful acts, to a megalomaniac cartoonish villain.

Still going through Command & Conquer series.

After Kane's Wrath, I now went back to Generals.

As much I like the game the campaign is not it's strongsuit, especially base game one. I'm not sure you can even say it has any story besides oh no! Terrorist attack.

The biggest issue is how easy it is, but that may be caused by 20 years of experience with the game.

Currently downloading Dragon's Dogma. Saw it at a ridiculous discount and remembered that the sequel is coming out soon, so maybe I can join the festivities when it drops. Had no prior interest, besides knowing that it is generally praised as an rpg and has tons of people on /v/ sucking it off. Surprised that apparently it only has one instalment, as the general buzz around it made it sound like a proper franchise. If all that stuff I read about is contained within just one game, then I might be in for some good time. It is always a cointoss with japanese developers in my experience. Outside of Kojimbo and Soulslop I rarely enjoyed eastern game exports. I guess I am too west-coded for my own good

Made it to Fountainhead Palace in Sekiro. This game has some really sick fights, and you feel badass when you get a good rhythm going. I also love the ability to re-fight bosses on the same file. It helps you practice and understand the game better, and it's nice to repeat a cool moment instead of having to start the whole game over.

Enjoy the best area in the game, the life sucking nobles are meh but otherwise it is amazing. Also doubles as a good skill point exp farm if you need it

I've been trying to get into Armored Core 6 this past week but it just isn't hooking me in.

I'm at the part where you first encounter the massive worm and that was a cool moment and all, but i've decided to take a break for now as the combat just feels really simple and not very challenging. Spamming attacks and dodges seem to get the job done 90% of the time.

Now i'm back to playing Slay The Spire until I get a second wind.

It just gets boring and tedious after a while, as someone stuck with it for a fair few amount of patches and regularly 36 starred abyss. Now I just follow what goes on in the subreddits since there is a bunch of drama around it very often.

It popularising gacha is a legit point to hate on it for.

I've tried to play the game twice, but it's so far up its own butt that it's simply unplayable.

Also, the developers are the typical 2-deep-4-u hardcore neurodivergents that won't understand standard game design decisions and will instead sneed on social media that people don't "get" their game.

Fun fact: no company has ever been able to produce an AI which can consistently distinguish between monkeys and black people. Self-driving cars are here, so are universal voice translators, self-aiming guns, and pocket-computers which can recognize every single product in a live video. But distinguishing between monkeys and black people is as difficult as solving a millenium prize problem, teams of PHD computer scientists will be working on it for decades before they get a solution which works well enough to be media-outrage-proof.

When someone finally finds the solution, they won't be make headlines, but they'll be happy knowing they solved the AI problem of the century. They'll tell normies that they just fiddle around with facial recognition algorithms all day, but to people in the know, he'll be known as "Tom, the absolute genius who spent 26 years teaching google images how to tell blacks apart from apes".
