I finished Wooly World with my little brother. Its a very cute and fun game but playing the more difficult levels with two people will lead to a lot of unintended team killing. Lost count of how many times an egg bounced back and knocked one of us off a cliff.

There are a handful of levels that flat-out shouldn't be played in multiplayer like that curtain roller coaster one. Otherwise, it's pretty fun to run around eating each other and having a silly time. It reminded me of playing the Lego games and destroying each other when we'd be thinking through a puzzle.

I'd like to play either Xenoblade game but $$$ and it seems like whenever people say they're awesome they can't qualify it. Like wrt the first Xenoblade it was all just "this is the best JRPG in years!" without further explanation than that and it's a statement I really need explained bc JRPG people think a lot of weird poo poo is great.

in the case of the first one the combat is really good and snappy without sacrificing too much depth, the characters are pretty cool, the crafting/loot system is interesting, and there's a lot of really awesome big areas that are like :aaa:

One of my recurrent nightmares after seeing the population statistics of Elite: Dangerous is to wake up as a gaming nerd inside the Elite: Dangerous world and having to choose between videogames produced by several thousands tech worlds with competing hardware standards. In that world megathreads about each games last minutes.

I was skeptical about FAUs role as a mod but euthanizing the miiverse thread while it still had dignity made me a supporter of his policies.
