Probably the closest I got to a real "shut the fuck up" take is that voice acting is too good in games. Voices are too clean and pleasant, tone and delivery are always perfect, just takes me out when the rest of the game is very grounded and naturalistic.

Another weird thing about Marathon. They got an enemy that is essentially those baby flood things from Halo, and I have to admire the confidence of putting them in the game, considering any sort of indoor environment makes them bug the fuck out.

Tarkov is a pretty shitty game, but it still might be my fav extraction shooter. Purely because the "boring" runs where you just load in, loot for 10-20 minutes, and leave are still pretty enjoyable because the maps are fairly unique and immersive.

Played some more Marathon, stumbled into a random duo and we just did a bunch of quests together. Didn't really change how I feel about the game after playing more, but it highlighted one of the issues with how it does storytelling.

Gonna tell my kids this was Marathon

There are gonna be so many butthurt Capcom and IOI fans when Damon and Baby wins GOTY.

4 years ago in the Telltale Games Alumni FB group, Michael Parsons was asking if anyone had advice for helping his 15 year old son Kane achieve his dreams of being a filmmaker. Turned out alright.

I'm not sure how much of it is current software/hardware vs intentional choice, but distance haze has been one of the worst things about modern 3D games.

Kinda surprised how much defense Onimusha is getting. Like yeah the original game was ahead of its time with a parry that could negate 99% of enemies, but that's probably why it made it pretty risky and put more emphasis on endurance with no checkpoints, you still had to engage with the game.

laying in bed and laughing bc I joked about an evil version of nasa that names their rovers after negative emotions to olya and it suggested a rover called ignorance that they just smash into the moon on purpose

This is real btw

Illucia video now up! We delve into the now almost totally lost world of online "Final Fantasy Town" websites; personal projects built around the concept of a clickable 16-bit JRPG town. We talk to some former mayors and dredge up some ancient screenshots of "Illucia", the genesis of the concept.

Gave Marathon a more thorough try, will probably play more, and it's generally ok, but anyone calling this shit the best FPS of however many years is giving

I think I've softened up on the aspects of Hitman C47 that I really hated when I first played this game. Namely, it's by far the most "free form" Hitman game they ever made because the intended ways to complete missions are pretty much never as clean as in later games.

One of my favorite things about early Hitman games is that 47 is a freaky ass guy when you look at CGs, but his game model screams Slab Thundercock

Graceful hit as ever, 47

On its way, thanks to all the gamers for your support.

Hyper Bun Buster: Rocket Hammer Action's demo is out on Steam! It's top-down arcade bump action game where you play as a bunny girl who uses her huge hammer to hit enemies into other enemies! store.steampowered.com/app/3605570/...

Kinda got an itch to replay some of the older Hitman games. I might do a level a day at most to make sure I keep the pace up on reading.

this is my kind of company motto right here

but it is trying to kill the butterfly.

well i think that worked

Amazing micro-drama going on in the TF2 community. "Yeah this guy is a pedophile, but why did you have to remove his rocket jump tutorials as well, this is cancel culture."

They know me by name.

Can't help but feel like this would've looked a lot better if this game wasn't so washed out.

New Onimusha's controls feel surprisingly responsive even though they're going for more grounded presentation. As long as you avoid sharp 180 turns, you get full control over your direction. The only shitty part is that Musashi always takes a few steps after you stop to slow down.

Oh thank god

Well, glad I didn't pay to try it

I'm looking forward to Rockstar fans doing little side by side clips, and showing how truck nuts in GTA6 are a lot more detailed than horse testicles in RDR2.

I thought that trailer was gonna be Smash Bros. Death Race

12GB for a demo, 2010 should've been the last year of video games.

There are so many games that visually offer you something that looks hype, but then you get your hands on it, and it turns out it's another "press i-frame button, then attack, repeat-like"

I don't wanna do too much debbie downer posting, but first showcase being a stealth crouching Wolverine doing takedowns from cover really sets the stage for AAA brilliance to come.

Destiny fans heard that the support is ending and thought "let's show everyone how annoying we are one last time"

Maybe there's something else to it, but mood's just swinging like a metronome from "going through motions until my time is up" to "life is beautiful no matter what" when I go a few days without sleeping longer than 4 hours.

How it must've felt to release the TESVI teaser 8 years ago before even a single asset for that game existed

Had to pay basically the price of a new toilet for a plumber to fucking replace the flush valve kit that we bought and two fasteners APAB

Royally fucked my sleep schedule last week, but getting back on track now so I should start doing more fun stuff with reading and drawing

Not even a fan of BG1, but remaking 2 before 1 would make little sense. So much of emotional and narrative payoff for that game relies on you experiencing the journey of the first game, even if it's pretty light on storytelling overall.
