  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Dragon's Dogma 2 discussion. on the Dragon's Dogma II board

    Considering how awful it felt/feels to stumble onto a cabin encumbered by, uh, Norse gods determined to end you for disrespecting their property rights, it's equally and oppositely awesome to see som...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Dragon's Dogma 2 discussion. on the Dragon's Dogma II board

    @atheistpreacher:I'd just recently said this on a post about "the sorry state of Bloodborne" on the BB sub.-------For me, I remember a huge shift around the time console ports to PC starting running m...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Without spoilers, what's the last most impressive feat you've seen in a video game?. on the General Discussion board

    I love how the DualSense has been implemented into most games this generation, specifically and obviously Sony first-party games. But there's a thin line between love and obvious, or admiration and s...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic What is the most overrated but beloved game so far this year?. on the General Discussion board

    I've definitely played significantly less Helldivers 2 than I'd like, and completely left Infinite Wealth to rot, because I simply have to know. The plot of this game is pretty scattershot in a genera...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic What is the most overrated but beloved game so far this year?. on the General Discussion board

    Yeah, by the parameters of the question, FF7R2 belatedly takes the crown. I'm in Chapter 13, so right near the end, and with the Gold Saucer date out of the way I'm not sure exactly why I still feel c...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Why does Superman [64, which isn't really in the title] have such an enduring legacy?. on the Superman board

    More than anything, Superman was Having a Moment in the '90s. He was the boyfriend du jour on TV (Lois and Clark), he died in the comics, and the people who couldn't believe he'd died were also the pe...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Ranking the games released in 2023 that I played. on the General Discussion board

    @bigsocrates: All very fair. Except…I’m always fascinated by how game players perceive value. I spent $30 to see Poor Things in a theater last week. It reminded me that even if I didn’t get Baldur or ...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Ranking the games released in 2023 that I played. on the General Discussion board

    @bigsocrates: On Peter, you got me. I did not and will not go nuts over it, but the original Peter seemed much more expressive to me. The performance seemed robotic in the remaster, but I'd hoped it'd...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Metal Gear Scanlon saved my life. on the Off-Topic board

    Incredible story regardless of context, but it also made me think...for many of us, our first experience with a game will be our only first experience with a game. It's so easy to share albums, movie...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Ranking the games released in 2023 that I played. on the General Discussion board

    Normally I'd say something like I look forward to taking these first two months of 2024 to check out some of your lower picks. Primarily Venba and Jusant - unfortunately, I've only got a couple weeks...

    Nodima Comments on a Nextlander Reddit Thread, Then Shares It Here for GotY 2023

    Alan Wake II without much reservation. My only knock on the game would be that it isn't any fun to play on Normal difficulty, but then I found Story mode to be challenging enough on its own (I still d...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic After a ending you disliked, do you find fan endings (reinterpretations) better?. on the General Discussion board

    Indoctrination Theory from Mass Effect is the only one I ever took seriously because it sounded very plausible that it was just somehow written around or forgotten about in the rush to get ME3 out th...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic The old "Mt Rushmore" question. on the Wrestling board

    Don't have any knowledge of Japanese wrestling other than the handful of guys I know made names for themselves over there before or in between WCW/WWF runs. Also fell off wrestling incredibly hard rig...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Baldur's Gate 3 Full Release Discussion Thread. on the Baldur's Gate 3 board

    Finally trying to return to this because of all the "well obviously Baldur's Gate 3 is the best game ever" talk across my various podcasts. Hell, even my sister whom I'd convinced to give the game a s...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic RE4 vs RE4: A gameplay comparison and retrospective. on the Resident Evil 4 board

    Curious how the tone of this thread has held up. As I said in the Black Friday thread, I held true to my promise earlier in this thread that I'd wait for a sale because of the impression the demo gav...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic 'Tis the Season of Capitalism- what's your haul?. on the General Discussion board

    I waited until the day after the PSN Black Friday sale and then finally bought Resident Evil 4 at full price instead of $20 off. I also kept putting off taking my tips to the bank so I could cover my...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Alan Wake II Gets Glowing Reviews. on the Alan Wake II board

    Now that I finished and have been digging into some behind the scenes stuff, one of the more stunning accomplishments of this game is how seamlessly they integrated the original voice actor (Darling f...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Microsoft Ends Its 'Hands-Off' Management Of Zenimax; Bethesda, Arkane, id, and Tango Must Report Projects To Matt Booty. on the Zenimax Media Inc board

    What little I know about Booty comes from the various times he came up in anecdotes from Giant Bomb staff over the years, some E3 @ Nite appearances and his late cameos in the PsychOdyssey documentar...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Alan Wake II Gets Glowing Reviews. on the Alan Wake II board

    As a total "please don't scare me bro", I'd say the horror is generally at a Resident Evil level. It's mostly driven by lighting, level design, art direction and sound while the game itself is more of...

  • Nodima posted a message in the forum topic Alan Wake II Gets Glowing Reviews. on the Alan Wake II board

    Edit: Before basically just repeating myself to echo later comments, I do want to mention that I love how thoughtful the back end of the game's pacing seems to be. Without saying much about why, a lot...
