so far the story mode seems neat. it's totally like SCII! feels good to play too. idk if they changed the reversal edge mechanic but it doesn't bother me so far. reminds me of the GG burst. is it only part of combos for some characters? (I've only played sieg style)
-
hey this game's neat. the hand tracking feels a bit janky sometimes though. kinda wish there was... more to it...? not sure exactly what's missing but it feels a bit flat.
-
the dungeon crawling puzzle solving stuff is fun, but ehh i don't know. something about it is tiring. the story and combat stuff feel a bit superfluous. maybe i'll come back to it later.

it's beat saber. it works. i'm surprised how well the campaign works. i like it. i like the soundtrack too
-
ohhhh boy this made me feel so sicckkkk lol. but it's neat. really into the extremely FPS modding scene vibe it gives
-
it seems alright? i just don't really have much patience for this type of AAA game design anymore. all the pieces fit together just right, but i don't really feel strongly about anything so far.
update: ok i think i've done everything there is to do in the game as of now... it's alright i guess? that ending was weirdly abrupt. not sure if anything was meaningfully resolved.

ahhh shoot i messed up not playing this earlier because ape out is incredible. it distills fun things about jazz into a game. it is familiar, conversational, freeform. feeling "oh i think i'm getting what i should be doing" and then getting into a groove feels great. and then they start throwing in fun and chaotic surprises... :OOO find the flow and ape out!!!!! wooo!!! i love that it's short that i just sat down and played through the whole normal mode albums in like... 1 hour and change? gosh it's good. and i haven't even mentioned the music! OOO_OOO

forgot i played this at a christmas party. truly confusing UI/UX all around TBH. hard to read the lyrics and the notes, hard to tell who's who, hard to tell who's connected or not, hard to browse the songs, etc. Strange how unfriendly a nice-looking karaoke game like this can be.

oh yeah forgot to log this one too. huge disappointment tbh. there sure is a lot of features in this, but it barely makes sense as a whole. to say it's janky is kinda underselling it. it just doesn't seem super well thought as a game; it's more like a bundle of features barely held together by rubber band. i mean i know it's early access, but i just don't get it. the basic idea could have been cool. it is what it is.
