Is it already that time of the week? Well, I’m still playing BOTW, Dead Cells on my Switch, Dawn of War Unification mod on the PC, and some Omega Strikers on the side, slowly climbing the ranked ladder. I’m thinking I can make Gold rank before the end of the season.
Also taking a moment to get back into shmups, I popped onto Mushihimesama and Dodonpachi yesterday and I wiped before even the third bosses, I’m super rusty.
4·1 year agoI am prepared to pirate every single game I bought on that platform if that comes to happen =/
Yeah, over the past couple of years, the amount of AAA games that actually enticed me were very low, and some of the few that I actually got, were actually duds in the long run. I’ve actually experienced a renaissance in my own enjoyment of retro gaming instead, alongside a few select indie titles. I’ve found I’m generally having more fun exploring games that are 10-20 years old now, than anything new. There are so many good games that I did not experience back then, that are still excellent today. Things from the arcade ere, emulation of all the consoles up to the PS2 generation, and some stuff on GoG. There are so many more good games to experience today than what new AAA releases would have you believe.
The only AAA game I am hyped about, is the new ARMORED CORE 6. I am dying to play that and it looks like it’s gonna be great. FromSoftware never misses.
Yeah, only because you just spent all of your money purchasing it, and then it failed and “made” you then cancel games and potentially close down studios, huh?
LOTR was a great franchise for games, back when the movies came out. If you want it to be a franchise again, you better at least match those games in quality. And I’ve been missing Battle for Middle Earth for a long time now.
Yeah, good that you guys are making such lists. It took me a few days to truly understand the “threadiverse” but now, as in right now, I am stumped trying to understand how does everyone integrate with Mastodon (which I understand to be not-Twitter) and then what do all of the other platforms even do! What is Misskey and how is it different from Calckey or Akkoma or Friendica… And how do they interact between each other. I am very confused but also very excited.
