This was fun to read, comes off as a little unhinged, but in a good way, if that makes sense. And yes, of course all this stuff sucks, the only thing we can do is vote with our wallets and hope other ...

The Warfarer implementation does seem really disappointing. It would have been a really cool class if you could have a discrete set of skills for each equipped weapon, even with needing to sacrifice y...

I'm definitely really looking forward to Hades II, but I think I'm also in a place where I may want to wait for it to be more complete before diving in rather than begin by playing a half-finished ver...

@efesell said:On the subject of loot though Ronin does have a very funny "Yeah, we know" option in the menu that I don't think is in any of their games but you can assign a rarity and tell the game t...

@ben_h: I have been known to on occasion like what I'll call "miserycore" stories (I Googled this term just now and actually it's a metal band, because of course it is), but in general, yeah, I like s...

@atheistpreacher said: @efesell said: Rise of the Ronin notably ditching the loot system, last I heard. Unless that was just rumors. I thought it was a recent announcement though.I hadn't been keeping...

BTW this Hard-drive.net article is both on-point and features a *chef's kiss* fake Keighley quote.

Boy, I wish I could help, and I certainly recall running into this in multiple games, but in a vague way where I can't actually remember the game. Seems like a thing JRPGs often do.

There are many great games on the PS5 but the vast majority are multiplatform. Even Returnal is on PC now. Closest thing I can think of is the Demon's Souls remake, but of course only if you're into t...

Yeah, I definitely don't mind them taking their time with it if it means it'll be the game they want it to be. And I have confidence that it will be.Still never actually finished that first game. I th...

@thatpinguino: Congrats. I've also been using the Checkered deck since it makes going for flushes so absurdly easy/simple. It might be the single easiest deck to play.Only cleared the blue stake so fa...

True, it could just be overpriced. I guess I just tend to assume it must be pretty beefy if it's 40 bucks and took them more than two years. We'll see!

I think most people will have heard by now, but this DLC recently got a trailer and a release date: June 21. In addition, IGN interviewed Miyazaki about it here. Probably the most significant...

@glots: Speaking of the asking price, at first it wasn't clear to me how easily farmable the premium currency ("super credits") would be, or how worthwhile the +$20 "Super Citizen" upgrade/edition was...

FWIW, server capacity seems significantly improved since a patch hit in the wee hours of this morning that added a 15-minute AFK kick. That's led to something like a 10% decrease in concurrent players...

@zombiepie said: @atheistpreacher said:Second issue. At the end of long stage, you can fight a tough boss, lose, and when you try again it will be harder because your morale has gone down (fortitude t...

I put Wo Long on my 2023 GOTY list at last place, just like I did with SOP a year earlier. I've already said a number of times and in a number of places that I found them both to be lacking follow-ups...

@noboners: Yeah, the bugs and server errors are pretty intense, for both PS5 and PC. I've been playing in a group in which I'm the only PS5 person, but we all experience crashes and errors. If anythin...
