once you're on new game plus you understand the whole game mechanics and can manipulate drops rates etc, you're supposed to see all the endings

started disco Elysium again while I wait for the Witcher 3 turbo edition and also because I never played the final cut version, can't remember what I played as before but I've gone max empathy/purple points and crap everything else initially so let's see

I'm gonna see how long I can go without going near the corpse at all, but I can't decide if I should become a revolutionary communist or not. Probably should else I'll get "the worlds most pathetic centrist".

the important outcome here is not accuracy, it is that it managed to get to you enough that you care about what it counted.

which is also a good reason to on a replay be willing to take up more unsavory stances, it is not like it'll reward you so it can be worth reading.

I've already internalised measureheads race theory so maybe I can pull off some sort of crazy "highly empathetic racist"

e: I am 100% gonna see if I can avoid ever going near the body at all. I assume Cuno just stays there forever though?

Crossposting my own poo poo from the No Man's Sky thread:

NMS has occasional tornadoes on crazy weather planets that throw your character around but the game doesn't quite know what to do if you're seated near one.

EVERY MORNING I WAKE UP AND OPEN PALM SLAM A WHITE WHALE INTO THE PEQUOD. IT'S HELL'S HEART AND RIGHT THEN AND THERE I STRIKE AT THEE ALONGSIDE WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER, ISHMAEL.
finished bloodstained. it is a perfect re-injection of sotn (barring some minor glitches). enjoyed it and felt it was the right length. won't be doing the bonus modes anytime soon but they're a neat idea while being true to form

next is probably ac valhalla just because it's rolling off ps plus extra in 2 weeks and i was to see if it's any deece

sounds like it could be fun. i've also heard it's kind of tediously long but... we'll see i guess! haven't played odyssey yet but doubting it's a big deal to skip

the core games are standalone, but the modern storyline that started in origins finishes in valhalla

there’s like a 1% chance you’ll care at all about the modern day storyline instead of just rushing through them to get back to your historical stabbing simulator
