This Month's Games
  • Twin Mirror - December 1st (it's dontnod's new game, for those of you who love b games like I do).
  • Empire Of Sin - December 1st (John Romero's about to make you off his snitch)
  • Immortals Fenyx Rising - December 3rd
  • Fire Emblem 1 - December 4th
  • John Wick Hex - December 4th (I'm really curious about this one tbh)
  • Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 - December 8th
  • Cyberpunk 2077 - December 10th (holy gently caress it's actually coming out?!)

I got distracted while I was making the thread ;~; It should have been "unwrapped and preloaded". I messaged a mod to fix it.

e: tbh like, actually thinking what game would qualify for game of the decade is kind of hard, especially in terms of like, impact. Dark Souls and PUBG both shifted the landscape of video games in an incredibly tremendous way. DOOM was the rebirth of the boomer shooter; Journey was one of the really big 'art' games, gone home was the birth of the walking sim, xcom was the rebirth of turn based tactical games.

Suddenly all those people we ignored and bullied and gave swirlies to for insisting that actually 2020 wasn't the start of the new decade are sitting pretty high on their horses now that we are in the market for a do-over on the roaring 2020s

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
I went through the first stage of the Doom Eternal DLC and I’m tapping out. The combat encounters are just more and more, it sucks to fight in a holding pattern for 10 minutes then die because an archvile spawn on the other side of the and summoned a bunch of buffed enemies. The first stage culminated in two marauders followed by two tyrants with plenty of toxic mancubuses for flavor, and I get the feeling that by the end their big trick will be *three* super enemies at a time.

You did not message me??? I fixed it though :)
And stuck it. And closed the old one.

And now I continue making the new GOTY thread while thinking about going ham with the great club in Dark Souls.

I had a lot of free time last month for some reason, so I started checking out this dudes videos

Even if you don't like Minecraft they're a really really solid watch as the dude tries to survive.
Lots of really impressive plays as well.

It's been a hell of a year, gamers.

I'm looking forward to having a couple of weeks off soon and playing some new videogames the entirety of Death Stranding again.

P.S. I bought Kiwami 2, so I'll either start that or use it as motivation to finally finish Judgment AKA Judge Eyes.

I know there's the left joycon drift thing that happens a lot but is the SL + SR buttons on the right joycon not working a thing

I can't switch the right joycon to horizontal mode because those two buttons have stopped working (and in the button input test thing nothing happens when you press them but every other button works fine) I've tried resyncing/updating the controllers etc but nothing seems to work

I've had the joycon drift thing too for a long time so maybe I should finally just get them fixed

Yeah, I’ve been watching some of his videos while working from home. They’re really good but I have two criticisms.

1) Dream (the one really good player who sets the videos up and has to survive or beat the game) can hear the other players discus their plans which gives him a pretty huge advantage.

2) Some videos have the premise of “If these four players can kill me they’ll win $20,000” which seems like rich people toying with poor people. Like “haha I have so much disposable income wouldn’t you like to pay off those loans lol? Come and find me!”

One of my OG joycons also has this SL/SR failure. The lights also stopped working.

We have a bunch of spares due to reasons so I've not bothered to look into fixing it, but it's annoying.
