Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes was inarguably better than the original Metal Gear Solid.

Is there any point in continuing to level up my Lancers and Engineers in Valkyria Chronicles? Now that my Scouts are level 11 they double as good Shocktroopers, and now that my Shocktroopers are level 11 they double as decent Lancers, and I feel like I only ever use Engineers once every couple of chapters to repair my tank or... repair my tank twice.

So, that King's Quest game might be basically made on stolen money from the Homestuck Adventure Game Kickstarter.

Take it with a grain of salt, I suppose- it's at least partly secondhand info but I know this person and I trust them enough to not believe they'd lie about this sort of thing.
It's a miracle the homestuck game doesn't look like complete garbage, with this info in mind.

I'm glad.

There already has been. It's pretty much general consensus that it's a good game.
I have legit never seen praise for it anywhere

one time someone in the roguelike thread gave me purple text that said "PUTS ON +5 GLASSES OF NOSTALGIA FOR lovely ASCII GAMES"

not really understanding how that's a sick burn tbqh
Games goons get really really angry if you enjoy old games, or outdated games, or in fact anything that is not in the current top 10 Steam sellers

I once saw a megathread that devolved into an earnest discussion of how liking any turn-based game, even Civilisation, makes you a racist and a bad person. Nobody disagreed and also nobody explained why

It is also rich in hot memes. Really good game though

The memes are mostly just posters in the background, there aren't any characters going around talking about cake or taking arrows to the knee.

Another thing that HL2 did was interactive cutscenes! Meaning NPCs look at you while they are talking as you throw boxes at them from across the room.

If I remember correctly game devs were convinced traditional movie-like cutscenes were the devil for several years because of it.
I have attempted to replay HL2 several times over the years and always quit at Kleiner's lab because of this stupid poo poo.

It's good, but gets hard! I'm also dumb, so YMMV.

I've only killed the first two bad guys, but tricking samurai dudes into falling to their deaths, then swinging from a rope and kicking a guy, and leaping off and throwing shurikens at everyone in site, then killing most of them and then throwing my sword at the last remaining bad dude, feels extremely badass.
