The Dunkey review of Shenmue where all the stuff he lists as baffling or terrible all sounded cool to me like having to go to work as a forklift driver for days or spent hours waiting in game to do stuff or having to wait on the bus.

I am a mindless, drooling retard who can only be satisfied by small and embarrassing/pathetic inflations of my ego. This game sucks rear end. 78/100

As a thirteen year old (but smart for his age) spy main in 2022 somehow, I find real games and experiences like Super Turbo and Quake to be, in a word, AIDS.

Man I wish I didn’t rely on Firefox screenshots when I got that one of the guy whose review of Madden 2019 was “I did not receive my Gatorade Player”.

He recently has come so far around on that game that he listed it as one of his favorites of 2021, but that just kinda shows how ridiculous and butthurt the original review was

I like his serious reviews. I don't always agree with them but imo he has a clear voice and makes his case for what he does and doesn't like. Which is why his negative Shenmue review let me know it was something I would like. I think he still does good funny stuff too

It's good he came around on it after he ended up playing it for most of the year but I don't think that means gyayayaya he was fail and aids on his initial review. You are allowed change your thoughts over time

quote:

Sifu is a game that could have been something amazing, with its fascinating premise and superbly crafted and fluid combat mechanics and animations. However, the game’s frustrating need to make the gameplay ridiculously hard just left me tired and annoyed. Sloclap really needs to think about how they can make this game more accessible, possibly by including more shortcuts, an adjustable difficulty setting, or just lowering the impact of health lost from fighting your average foe. Hopefully they will bring in some patches that will address these issues, but as it stands, I’d wait before investing time in the world of Sifu.

This review made me buy Sifu and its loving awesome. Basically a beat em up with a really precise idealized version of the Yakuza combat system

edit: First level basically has the Oldboy hallway scene in it lol

while Dark Souls accomplishes what it sets out to do, I suppose, the total absence of collectible cards or even a lockpicking minigame anywhere in its roughly 40-hour Campaign Mode is simply unforgivable in the modern age
