Someone else like me!
I’ve always had long fingers, and The Duke was perfect. I remember getting one of the revamped controller models down the line, and it just never felt quite as good.
Still prefer X-Box style controllers on the overall, these days. Still not quite up there yet, but still better than PlayStations style, and while I think the JoyCons are absolutely adorable and clever, actually using them is just uncomfortable after awhile.
Both games were pretty damn brutal, but memorable, experiences. I wish someone would come up with something like it, because that was the closest I’ve felt to my childhood dream.
You don’t have to tell me to get in the robot, you have to stop me from hijacking it just for a joyride.
I guess this is “weird” in the sense of “unique”.
The Steel Battalion Mech controls. The size of a table, it was an appropriate recreation of the control panel for a mech, requiring you to go through all the steps from firing it up to ejecting in case of danger. You had pedals, sticks, knobs, switches galore.
Still Pokemon Red. I’m beginning to regret my choices. The choice to include Blue-exclusives, and trade evolutions, because PKHex makes it so easy to do. The choice to try to keep a selection of various typings caught up in level, so I’d have some decent coverage versus brute forcing.
Having the trio of starters. I think I’ve grown to hate Bulbasaur, at this point. Every time I go to drop him into my party, all I can remember is “Not very effective”, over and over again. Well into the 20s, still taking 2-3 Vine Whips to take out a level 6 Kakuna.
I backpack it. Mines not exactly huge, but it’s enough, and easy to lug around. If you hunt around, you can find some fun ones. I picked up mine from a metaphysical shop.
They can also be a fun way to express yourself a little, hang things from the zippers(I have a Sword-mode Kirby on one of mine), pins.
Hell, I’m an oldass, I remember seeing people talk about Linkshells with certain interests on the forums and in-game. FFXIVs sense of community has been awesome for a long time, and they’ve only improved it from what I’ve seen.
Slowly grinding my way through a Pokemon Red Professor Oaks Challenge(Yay, switch-training Magikarp…), and when my brains to the point of melting from that, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. Kitsune Bladebound Magus, happily traipsing her fluffy way down wherever Desna may guide her.
May the Gods have mercy on the crusade she’s going to lead.
Eh, if they can, why not?
I know it’s a longshot, but given the sudden remaster of Tomba, and now Tomba 2 following behind…
Is someone prepping to actually do Tomba 3? It looks like the rights to the series went to Sony after Whoopee Camp closed down back in 2000, and what little work there was on the alpha of Tomba 3 was lost.
Just so you know, if it’s been awhile, Crate came in and did a pretty big overhaul on Grim Dawn, and are prepping for the “final” expansion that’s supposed to come sometime this year.
Dodge roll mechanic, potions are now a recharge resource versus pickups that take item space, the next expansion is adding potion customization, prettied up the old world to be more in-line with the quality the previous two expansions brought, tons of little tweaks.
It’s not exactly a “whole new game” experience, but it’s much more smoothed out!
Depends.
Is the uniform still banned?
Jauwn is a treat, and he makes such cool intros. He adds a nice perspective to the crypto games market. Open about his views on what it’s used for, but still willing to give it an honest try and look at it as a game alongside everything else.
Aren’t there external Workshop downloaders floating around, or has Valve closed that gap?
Sounds like a neat concept, but I’m hoping it’s something more than Eternal but in the Middle Ages. I was kinda excited when they said Eternal/TAG was the end of the Slayers story, wouldn’t mind seeing the world through someone else’s eyes for a bit.
It’s not fun.
Like, legitimately. It sounds fun, but then you sit down and do it, and realize there is little, if anything, redeemable even as a joke. By the time you’re done, everyone will hate themselves.
And that’s without playing an actual game. I think we made it 3 sessions before we figured out it just wasn’t a fun game to play, even with tongue firmly punching out of our cheeks the entire time.
I feel like GOG deserves at least some respect. They don’t have a perfect track record, by any means, but I find them at least reliable, decent sales, have gotten some fun freebies out of them in the past.
And, hey, shopping cart. Which shouldn’t be a selling point, I’m fucking flabbergasted that it came to this on any platform, but that’s another point above EPIC.
Oh yay, my Sim can watch real ads in-between in-game TV shows while listening to Katy Perry in Simlish, wearing their official Diesel clothes, and putting on their MAC makeup.
Can’t wait to be blasted with a stuff pack full of vintage Pepsi-Cola™ merchandise next!
“We understand we pissed you off, so here’s some crumbs. Be happy with it.”
Damn, I had my heart set on Bimmy’s great return.
NYKO were a decent third party, back in the day. Not great, but a step above the competition. Downside, I don’t think they ever really changed their plans that much. I swear I saw PS3 controllers with the “air cool” marketing still on it, just now with RGB through the controller!
