In retrospect yeah. I was very excited just to see a trailer at all. After sitting with it for a while I’m kinda like, that’s it? To me it looks exactly like the recent Metroid Prime remaster (which to be fair I did really like).

I wonder if the reveal of the big baddie was intended to carry more weight than it ultimately did.

Still amped for this game anyway.

I love the aesthetic of this. I played the white label version back when it came out and then kinda forgot it existed till now. I’m not always big on rhythm games so I’m not yet sure if this will be for me. But I can already tell the OST is gonna rip.

Haven’t had a chance to play this patch yet, but I’ll say I’m impressed at how much they are reworking already. Even going so far as to throw out certain hammers for example.

I attempted Trial of Haste pre-patch and quickly realized I stood no chance, neat to see that being adjusted.

Vow of Forsaking got the nerf treatment. Probably for the best.

There was a time in my life when my friends and I played a whole lot of Halo, particularly Halo 2 and 3. I never played online but we would have essentially LAN parties where multiple people lugged over their TVs and consoles and play for hours. It was a blast. In college Halo was the de facto way to spend Friday night if nothing else was going on.

Strangely enough though I feel no desire to go back to that.

lol I was scratching my head at that choice as well.

I know it won’t happen but I wish people would stop paying attention to Gruber. I used to follow him too so I get it but man did he go off the deep end hard.

Posts and comments now have a “select text” menu action, letting you highlight text from the post/comment and quickly copy/paste it elsewhere.

aaaah thank you so much, I’ve been wanting this! 🎉

Senshi how could you??

Oh man, I love the Stanley Parable! I shudder to think what the collectors stuff will cost, but damn if the “Jim” button isn’t tempting. Also delighted at the cassette tape option.

Since puzzle games seem to be the theme overall here I’ll mention Cocoon. It’s a recent puzzler that is absolutely gorgeous to look at and did some super clever stuff imo.

This Christmas has been pretty good for cooking stuff. Got a nice peugeot pepper mill, a thermoworks dot thermometer, and a nifty little Japanese salt box.

Wow I had no idea they were still releasing balance updates for this game. That’s pretty cool. We just play offline split screen and have been enjoying the new tracks as they come out.
