There should be a penalty on that

Well thank god it isn’t subjective or anything.

$20, out now on PCs and Consoles. I hope that Rock ‘n Roll has the soundtrack. Lost Vikings was an epic co-op game back in the day.

Soon you’ll overtake me... soon...

Best news of the Direct was the Famicom Detective Club ports. I haven’t played the first, but I played a ROM of the second one years ago and it is a smidgen more than a visual novel, but the story was a damn fun little mystery.

So, we ended up playing Forgotten Waters for five hours yesterday, the whole of the first scenario. It took a lot of effort getting the set-up down, but once we did it was smooth sailing, pardon the expression. It’s a goofy lark with a sense of fun very reminiscent of Monkey Island, while still doing its own thing. There are some astoundingly good jokes and running gags in the first scenario alone.

About time they made another Silent Hill pachislot

It has been a looooong dry spell of gaming for us. Fiancé and I are both working regular work days and the overlay of pandemic impositions on our workplace plus commute and restrictions has us wiped. To combat this, we forced ourselves to set up a game night of Forgotten Waters this Saturday. We’re going to get the rules hammered out tonight and figure out our streaming set-up, but I’m looking forward to actual human contact beyond the two of us for a bit.

I’ve actually been using mine a ton recently. When I’m not in the man cave, I can usually be found poking away at Hades, Slay the Spire, or Shiren the Wanderer. My PS5 remains ‘machine I play FF14 on’.

I played it back in the day, played a few hours of this version and left. It’s a stellar game, I just didn’t have time for a second go - it does get easier and you learn that you don’t have to do everything as you go. It’s got some crazy twists and an absolutely batshit insane ending that I just loved.

Fuck that fucking Christmas cookie fuck puzzle fuck!

Nooo, the pic doesn’t load! I wanted to see stuff!

I just spent three days gathering and crafting to earn scratch tickets which got me a flying cat minion in a parka. GOAT!

Yeah, 0’s a fun one. I played a bit of it and it has some dynamite mini-games, no shock there. Is Judgment part of the collection? That’s a fun standalone title I actually finished and enjoyed the hell out of.

Phew, yeah, that seems like a lot :). I have kind of stalled out at 25 hours - I got distracted by Bloodstained and FF14, but I do want to get back to this. Ugh, not enough hours in the day.
