It's a super solid dungeon crawler, I got way more into it than I expected (even beating the Dela story) though I will say that some of the later floors are complete horseshit.

the best episode of big o is the one where the villain tries to destroy big o by creating a perfect replica of roger's upper body that just shouts "BIG O! BIG O!" constantly and putting it on a tiny set of wheels and driving it off a cliff
the best thing to come from big o is the stage in super robot wars z where a bunch of gag villains and mooks are trying to hold off the actual bad guys and a heroic theme kicks in and a voice in the distance shouts NEVER FEAR! THE TABLES HAVE TURNED! and everyone thinks its someone important but its just beck in the beck the great rx3 and as it rushes into battle it immediately falls apart, and cynthia from king gainer just goes "Holy crap. I'm going to die here."

Its not amazing but if you like d2 and want a reason to play several of its maps again its pretty ok. The final missions are real boring linear gauntlets tho

The D2 DLC being the standalone Death of the Outsider, right? Didn't realize it reused levels.

Yeah iirc its five missions and two of them are remixed levels from the base game.

To add to that you don't have any powers in the first mission.

It's still decent and worth a playthrough though.

DBZF is very fun and VERY newb friendly in a genre (and sub genre) that I never thought was newb friendly at all. If you want in on wacky anime tag fighting better get while the getting is good. If you can shoot a fireball in street fighter you can do like 90% of the special moves in the game, and I'm pretty sure the next ten percent is just half circles. Seems like they wanted people to start learning anime/tag style combos and movement asap and did away with anything bothersome that you have to learn before that.

I loving loved Dishonored 1+2 with all my being and yet was incredibly underwhelmed by Death of the Outsider. I felt way too restricted with the powerset. While the facesteal and callback powers are neat they have nowhere near the same utility as the locomotion powers Emily and Corvo had and that soured me a lot. Felt like ghosting a lot of the game would have been waaaaay more difficult than previous games.

Yeah, I'm not sure exactly what action people are expecting the ERSB, a ratings organization, to take outside of rating things. Now the ESA on the other hand...Is also pretty toothless, actually.

The combination of autocombos and a dedicated homing dash button does a great job of getting beginner people to a place where they feel like the have tools that they can accomplish something with. Even if you're still getting bodied, knowing that when you get a hit you can easily dish out some damage is infinitely more rewarding than loving up your tri jump and eating another combo before you even landed a single hit.

Witcher 3 is so good but I can't sit down and play it. I feel like I have to take a week off to get any progress.

I don't know what it is, but it's not a game I can play, like, an hour at a time.
