lets hang out posted:

Be nice if they changed the rune/arcane requirements to make it a little simpler. I think I read somewhere that they did remove the recruitment cap, and they made similar little changes in the RS2 and 3 remakes.

My tip would be to not put off buying magic for a long time. I did that the first time I played, foolishly denying myself some very helpful and very cheap buff spells.

Yeah, given that there are characters who join as part of the Rune and Arcane side quests, it'd be really nice if they got rid of the "you have to be there for every rune/card to get the gift" thing, because you have to go pretty far out of your way to get those characters the gift. You have to like go and start multiple branches of the side quest before you complete any of the branches if you want those characters to be able to get the gift themselves. It's pretty awkward.

Did either rarity and the other person (razzledazzle maybe?) who was playing DR at around the same time get to DR3

It seemed like they both stopped before playing the best one??!

Might've been me? I was playing DR/DR2 at roughly the same time as Rarity and I made a few posts about it.

Frankly I burned myself out on it super hard mid-DR2. Think I beat the 3rd case? The one where Ibuki "hangs" herself and Mikan goes kookoo bananas from despair disease or w/e

My biggest complaint about being in my 40's is I will wake up with a random pain that persists for days. Like my shoulder has been hurting all week but that's because I slept wrong and it will be fine by Saturday.

Holy poo poo the fight Orochi is amazing with the sake and taking the heads down one by one and all the different elements and then Susano delivering the final blow WITHOUT ANY HELP now that's how you do a final boss fight (yes I know it's not the final boss)

the thirteenth final boss is too linear, but some say it's worth it for lightning returns: final boss xiii-3

There are about three or four final bosses in Okami due to how the story is structured.

okami threw a lot of people on release because we all thought it was a cute little zelda-like, and it turned out to be a sprawling four-act epic

I saw that Yakuza 1 & 2 were ported to the Wii U and got really excited until I realized it was never localized. Yet another reason I need a PS4.

I should point out that I'm not upset in the slightest, this is a very fun game and I'm in no hurry to finish it. I'm just amused the storyline shot its load so early

i think i would like the build-a-haiku spots in sushi ghost more if they just...straight up removed the haiku. these are beautiful vistas but being asked to choose one of three options for each line of the poem really messes with the vibe

My enduring memory of Okami is that Demon Lord Ninetails is such an insanely cool boss fight and battle theme and I wish the actual final boss was anywhere nearly as cool and satisfying.

it's a pretty good ruse. you think you're done and then... the game just opens up with tons of new stuff to explore and see.


and then it does it again later.

After finishing Vanquish, I was in the mood for more fast paced Platinum weirdness, so I started Bayonetta. I am really bad at these kinds of games so I'm dying a lot and mostly getting stone trophies at the end of acts, but the game is whole lot of fun. I am playing on the Xbox one x and it looks good for its age, but it moves so fluidly and controls so well.

I just finished act 7, so about halfway through according to the trophies, hopefully the difficulty won't get too impossible.

1. If I could give up the rest of my life so I only had five years left to live in exchange for not remembering a single thing that happened to me before 2020 I would absolutely take that trade, man I can't even imagine how cool it would be to live in a world where I did not have to constantly remember all the lovely things I did and said every single day

2. I got my first vaccine dose today and I think it's funny how Cyberpunk 2077 is still less dystopian than real-life where I'm getting a possibly life-saving vaccine at a Walmart

3. I think I'm gonna play P5R again, did they ever change the rules on streaming the game directly from the PS4? Or do you need a capture card to bypass their weird rules
