"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

For the record, The Castle of Cagliostro looks amazing. I'm just annoyed with myself for not simply typing out the title of the show in full.


Everyone went crazy over anime for a couple of pages, it's ok buddy.

Push through this, the end boss and final sequence are both amazing.


:stonk:

It's just that for every two stages that I get to have fun sliding around and messing with enemies, there is one where I'm in some sort of transport or enclosed space. The game is crazy awesome but there are times when it seems like the devs wanted it to be like a normal TPS and it blows.

I started getting into PUBG again and I started playing FFXII for the first time ever. The combat seems okay thanks to 4x speed but I've been getting the urge to give FFVII another fair shake since I prefer turn based systems.

Can anyone tell me if the steam release of VII is any good?

It's pretty jarring in Call of Duty Ghosts when I cut twenty throats per mission and regularly blow up complexes operated by civilians but if a single dude without a gun gets caught in my grenade explosion I instantly lose and get a "DON'T KILL CIVIES YOU MONSTER!" message. gently caress you Treyarch or whoever made this, why the gently caress do you care so much. The virtual man is dead, reloading my old save doesn't change the fact I blew him away.

I feel like we can only answer this with a discussion lasting several pages and ending with people yelling at each other on what a chat thread is.

But anyway, What new games are people playing this week?

I've been playing Dead Cells. I like how it feels very close to what a legit roguelike Castlevania would be like, the abundance of weapons and random loot is really cool and I like how every weapon has a unique feel to it and the random side properties that some of them have. Which makes it hurt more when you lose everything when you die, but that just means finding new weapon / item combinations to play around with.

I do have the same issues with it as I do with Rogue Legacy though, which are that enemies randomly hit way too goddamn hard and health items are way too few and far between (although you get an unlockable health potion item in this one, so I guess there's that), and I kind of hate the boss design, going by the one I've reached in DC that randomly generates a shield that freezes you in place and damages you until the boss lumbers out of range, that you can't break and can't jump over or roll through and can't do much of anything if he walks you into one side or the other of the boss room.

Hopefully they could adjust that since it's in early access, but I'm not holding my breath.

I've also been playing Furi but I'm not sure I really dig it that much.

Not gonna lie, the one thing tempting me to get a switch now rather than waiting another year and a half is that I need Splatfests back in my life.
Also kinda want to play Puyo Puyo Tetris and I'm kinda miffed that it didn't get a PC release.

That not SEGA's fault, Ubisoft has some kind of exclusive license to release Tetris games digitally. It's also why the PS4 version is disk only.

A reminder that Ubisoft's last Tetris release could not hold a stable frame rate, had multiple severe crash bugs, did not correctly model piece behavior preventing you from slotting pieces in circumstances where they should have fit, and required you to log into UPlay

As long as you're not doing Rank V ones or the elite hunts from the free company they're all doable when you get them, at least so far.

Hey it's ok, sometimes google just unfortunately does that kind of poo poo and I just want you to be able to feel better from all of this. Jackasses have turned triggers into a joke but if something is legitimately bothering you, you don't need to feel bad for being bothered by it. It's perfectly normal to feel hurt by things you don't like and I'm sorry that you ended up feeling bad as a result of circumstances beyond your control. I just hope you continue to feel better and that it doesn't happen again, or that if it does happen again, not anytime soon. I have PTSD and KCB has PTSD so we both know what it's like when something just sets you off and you just feel ill and awful and dreadful afterwards.

Stay well, basalt.
