• I'll also start us off. \n\n Lately, I've been trying to whittle down my games I've wrapped vs games I own ratio. Now, to fascilitate this, I'm picking ONE system, and I'll only play one game on that particular system until I finish it, while trying to play it as much as possible. Other systems are fair game, but I should mainly focus on this first system. \n\n This, I hope, will make it so I don't fall under the "3 Day curse" where I want to play a game, drop the one I'm currently playing, and play it religiously for 3 days before I suddenly get a craving for the next game - leaving a trail of half-finished games in my wake I'll eventually have to restart (AGAIN) to get the full experience. \n\n Currently, this has begun with Tales of Symphonia, a great game to start me off with. I've been tempted with Legends of Legaia, Baten Kaitos, FF Crytsal Chronicles, but This time, I've stood my ground. I'm a little intimidated that I haven't reached the second disc yet, though ^_^. \n\n

• Hitman 2 is fucking hard as hell. It's easy to just run and gun in it, but the point, to me, is to be stealthy. I COULD run around shooting every guy I see in the face, and the missions would be relatively easy, but that's not fun. If I wanted to do that I would play doom or something. To be stealthy, and get the highest rating, you need a hell of a lot of skill. \n\n I'm actually glad it's so hard, because I can play games like splinter cell with too much ease and get by without any alerts. But Hitman presents some challenge. \n\n And Tenchu as well. I have Fatal Shadows for PS2, and it's so much fun, but also frustrating. I'm on that level were you have to fight Futaba, and every time I play it I can get by all the guards without a single alert, but when I have to battle the boss I always get fucked up. \n\n I wish I could reinstall Far Cry, that was so much fun when you tried to be stealthy. Hard as fuck to be stealthy though, but I liked the flexibility. Shame that my gaming system got fried... Now I can hardly play anything made past 2003. \n\n

Makes finding chests a lot easier at least. \n\n I want to get Demon Souls soon. \n\n >>1 \n\n Oh man, I have such a hard on for Baten Kaitos. It was my first rpg.

• To begin this possible wall of text, here's some background - I've had a Dreamcast since sometime in 2000. the RF cable, however, has been broken since 2008, and I only -just- got around to using ebay to grab the SCART cable I need. Even so, that console is fucking awesome. \n\n Shenmue is still fun to this day. Not as amazing as it looked back then, but it's immensely fun to just forget the plot and waste every penny you earned on arcade games and capsule figures (still looking for the Sonic figure). Sonic Adventure 2 aged pretty well, too, despite the writing reminding me of a generic Shonen anime (think Dragonball). The only problem I have with it is how Knuckles' stages seem like pointless filler. \n\n Also, Jet Set Radio (or Jet Grind Radio in the US) and ChuChu Rocket are probably some of the most original games I've ever played. \n\n

• The splinter cell games really went downhill. Damn Ubi. Honestly, the first two sc's were good, but had lots of room for improvement. The third one was really good, but still had TONS of room for improvement. \n\n So what does Ubi do with the next splinter cell? They clone the 3rd, and make the story 10x cheesier and the gear 10x less tactical. \n\n For the fifth: rinse, wash, and repeat. \n\n This seems to be a habit amongst major game makers today... \n\n I'm glad there are so many old games out there, that I haven't tried, that have a lot of good gameplay. \n\n

• All my characters are around level 70, is that high? I had a bit of a wander around there and Rydia turned back into a loli to my delight. I think I'll carry on exploring for now. \n\n I don't see why this area can't be entered before the boss and still be optional? To stop you from getting broken gear for the final boss? \n\n Maybe I'm worrying too much about this and being a bit of a completionist (should be a word), I feel like it would be wrong to ignore a huge dungeon they went to the trouble of adding. \n\n How do other people feel about post game content? \n\n One other thing that bugged me - I wish Parom and Palom had their personalities swapped.

• I love "Ore no shikabane wo koete yuke".
• This is an unusual style RPG that the characters' lives are very short so that you see them die many times.
• When they die their descendants continue the adventure. Descendants are sometimes stronger than their parents. You should strengthen their DNA. I feel the game is really fun because the characters' lives are limited so that if you got a strong one you should take action until he die. Finally the great-(around 30x or more?)-great-grandson beats the final boss. The story is touching and the game itself is absolutely outstanding. \n\n

• Dungeon Defenders is really awesome, but it needs a LOT of work to make it easy \n\n I can tell just from one day of playing that the class I picked, the squire, has overpowered towers \n\n We didn't even need to fight ourselves on one map, I'd just make a bowling ball turret at the head of each staircase and crossbow turrets to kill any air units, nothing would pass.It was on medium, maybe on harder modes you dont feel it, but compared to what others were doing I got that impression.Also people are retarded and making public online games where they want to solo and kick anyone that joins, instead of just making a lan game or a private game so they are not listed at all. \n\n The game also suffers from being a console port to pc, at first I thought I was doing something wrong but you need to let your character autoaim every time then atack, shit sucks and makes you not want to fight at all especially when you can't target the more dangerous ones in the horde of hundreds that are coming to beat you down into nothing. \n\n

While the ball was in the air, I was mashing X to header the ball, when the half-time whistle blew. At half-time, all the players immediately rush towards the dugout, but since I was mashing X, it skipped the whole halftime ceremony and the players reappeared on the pitch at opposite ends. However, the ball was still in the air flying towards the goal, and after swapping sides that was now the computer's goal. The ball went into the net and I was awarded a goal before the half had started! Isn't that interesting? \n\n

• I can see why some fans of 1 hate what happened going on, I think the aesthetic and tone really did go downhill even though 2 is my first game in the series. 1 did have a problem with areas being VERY same-y and hard to remember due to being overly brown. \n\n

• Recently got into Lobotomy Corporation. My journey went something like this: \n\n Ooh, this game "Library of Ruina" looks cool. Very stylish UI.Huh, it's a Korean deckbuilding rpg-battler, but also a sequel to another game... "Lobotomy Corporation"After some research, the previous game (LC) looks like a flash game (ew) and seems to take hours and hours to finish, not to mention that it's (apparently) stupidly grindy. Pass for now, but it looks like the sequel can be played standalone.Plays some LoR \n\n wow this game rules. but definitely seems like I'm missing some lore. let's watch the cutscenes from LCok, I watched all the cutscenes from LC (that took, like, 5 hours?)... back to LoROK... this game is still great but now I'm intrigued about how the original game plays. The steam sale is still on, so let's purchase LC.before playing LC, I'm going to mod it and make it less punishing. No big deal since there's no achievements...20 hours later \n\n Very glad I decided to give this a go - not only is it a great game in and of itself, but it makes LoR that much better. However, I really wish I had played it from the get go instead of taking this roundabout route. However, I still have a lot of playtime to go...Someone on steam describes this game as "Korean Autism Management Simulation" which is v accurate & should probably indicate if it's for you or not. My recommendation is (1) unless you're a serious masochist, I would grab some mods that make grinding for stats easier, make it so deaths are not permanent, and make gifts more common, and (2) name your employees after either people you know or characters in media you enjoy. Feels like it would be a lot more fun to do that than sticking with the random names like I did. \n\n

• Got a weird urge to play FIFA '97 today... pretty clunky, but it was the first fully-3D FIFA game. Played an indoor 5-a-side tournament, as far as I know only FIFA 97 and 98 had this indoor mode, and none of the later ones did. The computer was beating me due to the clunky controls, so I swapped to the other team and hacked the goalie to get them all sent off! However, once a certain number of players have been sent off, you no longer get red cards - in FIFA 98, after I think 4 or 5 get sent off the match is abandoned and the other team automatically wins 3-0. \n\n

I only played the Tennis one so far, but it was just a basic tennis game - I was expecting some bomb element? Like in Anna Kournikova Smash Court Tennis on PS1 there was a bomb tennis mode, where a bomb is placed where the ball bounces, so you have to avoid explosions as well as hit the ball. \n\n I liked the “Home” menu on Bomberman, he is chilling in his house :) \n\n

It has some cheats for changing the size of various body parts, as well as a crazy “bird mode” cheat which changes the player models to horrifying fucked up chicken bodies with broken textures.

Let me to tell you about them! \n\n Let's get the golf games out of the way: Cyber Tiger, PGA Tour '98 (both PS1) and International Golf Pro (PS2). They were all pretty shit. Cyber Tiger is a cartoony golf game featuring Tiger Woods, and you can also play as Teen versions of Tiger and other characters. It seemed a bit creepy tbh. PGA '98 I got because I loved FIFA '98, and the box art was similar, so I was curious to check it out. It's kinda interesting how the annual wave of EA Sports games have a common look each year, I guess. It was only a pound and not that good. International Golf Pro was also pretty boring. \n\n

I know absolutely nothing about cricket so I was just mashing buttons to throw the ball and hit it. Didn't know what any of the numbers meant for scoring. It had something I've noticed on a few PS1 games I've played on the PS3, where the sounds stops working and just plays a high-pitched EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE noise for a while; then when I hit the ball it changes frequency. I wonder if this is some sound glitch related to the PS3 handling sounds differently than the native PS1 or something? \n\n Just for a laugh I wondered what would happen if I swapped the game out and put the platinum version in while it was still running. It carried on playing no trouble. \n\n

I remember it got a good score in the PS magazine so I thought I'd pick it up. I also got the demo it was on, disc 49, which also features the pre-release demo of THPS1, Um Jammer Lammy, and EVIL ZONE which I am currently trying to get a hold of! It also has a pretty fun Net Yaroze game, a multiplayer tank battle game. \n\n Like a lot of PS1 games I buy for nostalgic reasons, Speed Freaks wasn't as good as I remember.

• After talking about arcadey football games with power-ups earlier, I came across a Lego football game for PS2 I'd never heard of called Football Mania. It's actually really fun! It's lego, but there's no building aspect, just the players are lego men. \n\n It has a simple shooting system with aftertouch controls, so it's fun curving shots in or chipping the goalie from the halfway line and stuff. One of the power-ups turns the ball into a rocket that aims for the goal, so you can chip it up in your own half and rocket in above the goalie. \n\n The story mode is kinda mad, it's just a football game but the story has you chasing a guy who stole the trophy, and he escapes into space so you need to beat teams to get the parts for your own spaceship, eventually playing on Mars. The teams are themed lego men like cowboys and skeletons and aliens and pirates. It has various pitches of different shapes and sizes. It also has a normal Lego Cup mode with a range of national teams, and some minigames where you can unlock special players. \n\n It was a fiver! \n\n

I think most people were flabbergasted that it had something resembling a storyline and AI allies that weren't 100% dead weight. \n\n Some gamers also had a complex about vidya games being widely rejected as Real Art at the time, and a game depicting a "realistic" "cinematic" "war story" seemed like a step in the direction of being accepted by the cultural elite. \n\n

• MGS 1 feels overrated. Don't get me wrong its a great game but whole sections of it are just rehashed from Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake. The chase sequence at the end, the ninja boss, female love interest etc. Meryl is just a rehash of Holly and Otacon is Dr. Madner. Then you realize Kojima does this with a lot of his games. They all have a situtation where your captured and have to endure a button mashing torture sequence that will give you arthritis. They all have a scenario where you have to save a guy who's captured and knows a bit of the big dark secret but never enough and also happens to be on the other side and in disguise. There's always a diguised female helper (Holly, Gustava, Meryl, Eva) whose cover gets blown and a an ally/friend Snake knows from way back ends up betraying him (Miller/Liquid, Campbell in MGS2, The Boss etc). When will we stop heaping praise on this man for reheating the same damn story multiple times? \n\n

• >>201 I always took that as a deliberate idea of history repeating itself, the same events playing out in different contexts with different participants, as time spirals out. Each iteration has certain roles taken on by different characters, as you say - I always felt we were supposed to notice that events repeat themselves in each game, and the characters dutifully taking on their roles mostly don't realise their position in the bigger picture. There is an overarching story of the "deep state" Patriots orchestrating the events that unfold, each character playing their part. Snake and Otacon think they're stalking the Patriots, then find out they behaved exactly as the Patriots predicted they would when they lured them in. Raiden takes his mission seriously, but it's made obvious to the player that it is a simulation based on Snake's previous missions, and he is a puppet playing his part. \n\n It makes me think of in the Bible how Judas betrayed Jesus for seemingly selfish reasons, but he was just playing the part he had to play for Jesus to be arrested and executed, in the divine plan to save humanity... or in the Bhagavad Gita when Krishna tells Arjuna that all humans are born to play the part He intended for them in his grand plan. \n\n There was something else in the Japanese version which to me suggested the repitition of ideas and characters was deliberate. Certain characters are voiced by the same voice actress, which isn't the case in the English version, but my memory is a bit fuzzy on which ones... \n\n

• Kojima just likes recycling scenes. Now that I think of it a lot of games from that era were the same. The first three Resident Evil games share virtually identical sequences too. Like the way all Star Wars movies have signiature set pieces. The real problem is how messy and convoluted the plot becomes. I took it as the Rashomon effect and postmodern hyperreality. Since the story is always revealed through different characters explanations and monologues, they are all just explaining their own subjective point of view and interpretation of what they think is really happening instead of objective reality. They are all more or less unreliable narrators. \n\n But MGS4 is where things go wrong because it contradicts all the previous games on factual grounds. Solid Snake was killed off at the end of the tanker scenario in MGS2 and all the characters Raiden meets are revealed to be a simulation. But suddenly in MGS4 they're all back again and all of them are real and they're all related to people from MGS3. That one game just screws up the entire lore of the series. \n\n I always thought the Patriots were basically a placeholder for the US shadow empire (the way Godzilla was used to represent nukes) and its schemes to manipulate and control the world rather than a Godlike entity that controls everything. Its more like samurai movies where there's this overarching idea of fate and humans (even powerful groups like the Patriots) are all foolish creatures playing games of power with each other that are doomed to fail while Heaven or Buddha silently watch. The only good guys are noble samurai regardless of whose side they are on. \n\n

• At the end of the tanker chapter. Ocelot/Ray tears up the the tanker hold and sinks it. Snake was in the hold as it went down and made it to the surface but he couldn't have survived. Huge tankers that displace thousands of tons kill sailors by dragging them down as they sink. As they go under, water is sucked into the empty spaces of the ship dragging down anything nearby. Even the strongest swimmers can't resist those forces. Theres also Otacon screaming at the end. Snake couldn't have survived. Remember, the Plant chapter is a simulation. The Snake in the Plant sequence could just be simulated.
• >The characters he meets are simulations of the real ones we meet in MGS4?
• I don't see why they'd do that though. It would make sense to simulate Snake because in previous Metal Gear games, Snake has always been helped by a mysterious insider whose legendary identity is revealed at the end. Raiden looks up to him the way Snake looked up to Big Boss/Grey Fox. There isn't really a reason to simulate anyone else. If Solidus or Vamp were real people and the whole thing is a training exercise, what happens if Raiden runs into them IRL? If Snake really died during the tanker incident than it wouldn't be a problem. There's no chance of Raiden meeting him outside the simulation and freaking out. But if Solidus is a real person and he's really the President then that would make Raiden dangerous to his own.
• > I really liked that about the MGS series, it makes you re-evaluate what you thought were “factual grounds”, and story is often told through the characters' own subjective interpretations.
• MGS4 kinda does away with that. It gives you answers. There is a big master narrative that explains everything. Character arcs are resolved and there are clear conclusions and endings. Its a lot more traditional whereas the first three games were more postmodernist. They don't give you clear answers, everything is subjective, there are no simple fairytale endings, and its all left up to the player.

• > >he couldn't have survived. Huge tankers that displace thousands of tons kill sailors by dragging them down as they sink.He's Solid Snake! He's built different! I believe he did, and he was Pliskin. \n\n The tanker really sank, and Big Shell was really built around it. The events and participants there were planned by the Patriots to recreate Shadow Moses, not so much as a training exercise for Raiden but to test the S3 plan, and how an individual can be manipulated with misinformation. This is done to Raiden and the player (even before the game was released, like how all the previews hyped up the return of Solid Snake, then it turns out he's a side character you only play as for a couple of hours). I think there's ambiguity around the word “simulation”, it's a simulation in the sense that it's staged, like how police might train in a simulated terror attack - not a computer simulation. \n\n > >>The characters he meets are simulations of the real ones we meet in MGS4? My bad I was referring to the Colonel and Rose... they are AI chatbot versions of the versions we meet in MGS1 and 4. But Solidus, Vamp, Emma etc. are real and playing their part in the simulation. Remember Solidus raised Raiden as a child soldier and later orchestrated the events of MGS1 (getting Ocelot to convince Liquid to highjack REX). Raiden and Vamp are the same as the ones in MGS4, and Solidus's real body was recovered to rebuild Big Boss.
• These Rose and Colonel chatbots predicted what we see today with AI chatbot versions of famous figures from through the ages. If the S3 plan (as Ocelot understood it) was to refine the perfect soldier like Solid Snake, you can see how each soldier having a personalised AI version of the Colonel and a save game lady that Snake had could be incredibly useful on the battlefield.
• Do you think in the near future, real soldiers will be using AI to help them in battle the way the Colonel AI does for Raiden? \n\n > >MGS4 kinda does away with that. It gives you answers.I agree, I think the misinformation was deliberate and interesting in MGS2, and then I remember how exciting it was the first time I played MGS4 getting those cold hard truths! And I think those rehashed situations and characters were a deliberate part of the master narrative of the series. \n\n

• Kojima got his idea of simulation from Baudrillard who was popular in Japan at the time. The idea is that simulation isn't a fake version of something real or a lie that hides the truth. Its a representation of an object that claims to be faithful but has no real connection to it. A simulation replaces the thing its supposed to represent. Porn is supposed to be raw uncensored real sex but nobody used to have sex like that irl. People end up modelling their meatspace sex lives on internet porn so it ends up becoming real or more accurately replacing what was real. Our ability to distinguish between real and artifical has broken down. The Big Shell incident is a staged event based on myths about Shadow Moses. Its designed to take rookies like Raiden and turn them into replacements for Solid Snake. All of the bosses, the bad guys, the mission profile are rough copies of MGS1. Its a meta commentary on gaming i.e. Konami will just pump out soulless Metal Gear clones that rehash the first game and the military will turn warfare into a game and use gaming to recruit mindless soldiers. The breakdown of our ability to distinguish truth and falsehood will make us easy to control through manipulating content. \n\n This also means we don't know where the line between real and staged is in the game. For all we know, Snake/Pliskin, Otacon, EE etc are all actors and the big reveal at the end is part of the exercise. Its one of the what ifs of the game. Do Snake and Otacon actually interfere in the Patriots' simulation or are they just actors too? \n\n > >Do you think in the near future, real soldiers will be using AI to help them in battle the way the Colonel AI does for Raiden?They already do that. Usually it means taking metadata and demographic information to generate kill lists for drones, death squads, or the air force.

In real life, a human commanding officer can command his troop as a whole, but can't give every soldier his full attention at all times; if all of that officer's expertise and experience could be stored as an AI entity and each soldier had their own personal Colonel guiding them in real-time in battle, military operations would be more efficient...

• The average soldier is pretty worthless. Politicians and top brass just don't like troop deaths making the news but aside from that they treat infantry as a statistic. It wouldn't be worth the cost to the fit the average grunt with AI chatbots. The last thing you want are your guys fucking around with their phones in battle. I can see a case for spec ops using something like this. Israel has this secret "ghost regiment" that integrates AI. Exactly how they do it is a mystery though. Where you'll see AI decision making is at the command level, at the unit HQ, and remote unmanned weapons. i.e. AI robots that can carry satchel charges and AI suicide drones or have an AI that designs mission plans or handles mission data and processes intel during a mission. You could also see it being used in training simulators and war gaming software.
• The most dangerous thing is using AI to speed up WMD research. AI applied to biological design could speed up the R&D of new bio weapons and generate new design concepts faster than any human. There's also the risk of military putting a strategic weapon in the hands of an AI. Imagine Russia's Perimeter system but worse.

• I just got the platinum trophy on maybe the second-worst football game I ever played. It's called Super Arcade Soccer 2021, and I got it for about £2 in a PSN sale. Everything about it is shit, but at least it was entertainingly shit. Here's some funny things I found: \n\n Player stats seem to have a huge effect on shooting accuracy, but not pass or lob accuracy. The best way to score is to use high-powered passes instead of the shoot button.There is no point aiming penalties for this reason, the best way is to aim straight ahead and press shoot, the game will decide which direction you're shootingGoalkeepers seem to either have lighting-quick responses, or have been lobotomised, when reacting to each individual shot in the game.You can often chip it from halfway up the pitch and the GK will watch it bounce past him into the netGoalkeepers seem to have a thing that causes other players to fall when they come close. I think this is for when they dive at an attacker's feet and save the ball, but it means you can run up the whole pitch with your GK and opponents will fall over when they try to tackle youGKs don't have tackle animations, but it still plays the sfx when you press the buttonLike many football games, there is a radar view at the bottom showing player positions. There are no walls around the pitch, so you can run forever away from play, and watch the radar marker run across the screen. I got my player markers up on the scoreboard at the top of the screen.Usually in football games, just like real life, a game is abandoned if too many players are sent off. Not this game. I am currently soft-locked, because I got all 10 outfield players sent off, and when the other team scored, the goalie is taking kick-off, but he has no one to kick it to, so now they're just standing there with time paused.

• I like to play Jet De Go nowadays. It's fun to have a civilian airplane game that focuses more on the feeling of flying than on making sure you spend 20 minutes going through checklists before you're allowed to move the plane. The physics are so simplified it can actually be disorienting when you're used to flying games (even Ace Combat), and you don't have to remember too many buttons since most functions are just outsourced to hitting triangle, so it's a fairly simple game. The gameplay of Jet De Go 2 is odd, though: it's basically an arcade game, but a large part of your time playing it is spent flying basically straight and level without doing anything for 100 mile segments because you're in control of the whole flight (unlike the first game which fast forwards automatically until you need to make a course adjustment), so you wind up having quite a busy arcade game during takeoff and landing, followed by 30+ minutes of not doing very much. It's like if Ace Combat made you fly the plane across the map to get to the combat zone before you were allowed to battle. That doesn't bother me personally, but it's an odd design decision to put so much waiting in an arcade title. Maybe you're just supposed to enjoy the super low-resolution satellite photo scenery of Japan passing by - though that doesn't help much if you're doing a long overwater flight to Okinawa...

• Working my way through the main quest in Custom-GX with a Pianist. Just today, I finally grinded out enough small medals to replace my pet little girl with a catsister. \n\n I'd like to try out the Omake Overhaul mod, but it can't upscale the window like Custom-GX which is annoying, and there's also some kind of locale issue on newer versions of Windows that results in JP text randomly not being displayed. You're even more screwed if you don't know any Japanese, because while someone made a translated version of it back in 2017, all the links for it are long dead. \n\n Funny thing, while looking at Japanese wiki comments I saw people bemoaning that Custom is the most popular mod lineage outside Japan (apparently they feel that the mod creator disrespected Noa), unable to comprehend why it wasn't Omake. Maybe translate it for starters? \n\n

• Some furry on Youtube did a pistol only run of STALKER: CoS where he absolutely refused to get in their faces to make the most out of his low accuracy, so I didn't feel bad for him when it stopped functioning all together. How the fuck do you struggle on Agroprom? There's ample cover all throughout the map, just let the NPCs cover you sprint to the closest cover low-crawl and go for headshots; don't hide like a faggot in the back and fight at the medium range mercs want you to.
• I appreciate how tight the movement in CoS feels for lack of a better word. Just that simple difference in the crouches makes you feel like you're hugging cover for dear life, popping out hoping to get a second's opportunity to move. Little things like that. \n\n

• Me and my friends were talking about a game but couldn't remember what it was. It's a game like GTA or Driver where you drive around a city, but instead of getting out of the car and running around, you change car by sort of possessing them, like a spectral orb flies to the new car. I'm going to play The Getaway on PS2 for the first time today, I can't think of other possibilities. Can you? \n\n

Looking at it now, it looks like the camera goes up to a bird's-eye view when you leave the car then comes back down to the ground. The one I can picture in my head, when you possess another car it just travels along the road directly to the other car. This Driver one looks fun though, I bid for it on ebay, thanks! \n\n I tried the Getaway but the controls were too bad to really enjoy it. You can't control the camera! So if you run into a building and a guy starts shooting from behind, you have to run in a circle to get the camera to see who's shooting you. It was kinda cool driving around London. The one thing I remembered about this game when it came out was the real-life businesses and vehicles in it, like Royal Mail and Parcel Link vans driving round. I stole a double-decker bus and went on a rampage in first-person view, and felt like I was in the Spice Girls movie. \n\n

• I've been playing around on a friend's Minecraft server. It's the first time I've played the game in years, and there has been some serious feature creep in that time. That being said... I've been surprised at how much I like the new features, once I've given them a chance. Beekeeping and archaeology are ridiculous things to add on the face of it, but they are actually quite fun and satisfying, and some effort has been made to integrate them into the rest of the game. The biomes in the nether and underground add some much needed variety and reason to explore (although it's true it is at the cost of a certain austere beauty these places used to have as well). I also have to say, as someone who primarily plays the game to build stuff, I'm a big fan of a lot of the new block types. Copper makes excellent roofing, the new tree/wood types are beautiful, and there's a lot more interesting unique decorative blocks for accenting. I don't really care about the new mobs or combat stuff, but that's fine, not everything has to be for everyone, and you aren't forced to engage with them. It's heartwarming to see that the game is still good, even without the blinders of nostalgia. \n\n

• Watched a bit of the network test.
• It's mechanically kinda like a battle royale, except three player PVE instead of all shooting each other.
• You all get dropped into a spot in a Limgrave-ish sized map, and go around fighting minibosses for random loot and leveling up.
• Then a wall of hurt funnels you into where a big boss spawns, and you fight that.
• Make it through a few rounds of all that, and you get a bigger boss. Beat that too and you win the run. \n\n So basically, if you liked co-oping boss fights, this is more of that with less of the exploration in between. \n\n

• I just found something so obscure I wonder if anyone has seen it before... \n\n I was playing Three Lions, a PS1 football game by Z-Axis and BMG Interactive. There are hidden cheats to unlock secret teams, mostly classic year or all-star teams, but you can also play as Z-Axis or BMG Interactive, and there's even one for the band Ocean Colour Scene who did the theme song. \n\n Anyway, I was playing against BMG Interactive, and on the team are Sam and Dan Houser, who went on to become co-founders of Rockstar Games. Usually when you score a goal it says GOAL! on the screen, but when Sam Houser scores it says SAMGOL! \n\n ?? \n\n

• It was 2-2 in injury time, and I had a corner. A funny exploit in this game is if you place the marker right on the goal line and chip it, the AI doesn't really know what to do. It will always either go straight to your player to finish with his head, bounce off a defender's shoulders into the net, or the goalie dives in with the ball. This time, the computer decided to hit me with the old Intentional Foul elbow to the face. For some strange reason, instead of a penalty, I got a free kick from where the ball was - 1 yard from the goal line, basically between the keeper's feet. It got funnier, all 10 of BMG's outfield players decided to make a wall 10 yards from the ball, which meant they all stood in a row behind the net. And I STILL managed to hit the post, thanks to the game's sensitive aiming system. I managed to scoop up the rebound and blast it in while the defence rushed through the net at me. \n\n After that I played against Z-Axis. Another funny unique thing about this game is that when you play your goalkeeper in outfield position, he keeps all his goalie gear on. You can put your #1, sub and reserve goalies all up front, like I did with both teams. One of the Z-Axis goalies is a green alien man! How many people have found that? It's so weird to think how much I played this since it came out, and I'm still finding new things almost 30 years later! \n\n

• I've been playing it! I'm only a few hours in, but I'm enjoying it a lot so far. The movement and combat feel really nice and fluid, you can tell they put a lot of care into refining it. It's also a lot harder than the first game, but still staying the right side of "harsh but fair" vs "complete bullshit" for me so far. \n\n I do have one or two nitpicks. I don't mind the periodic mini-arena fights, but the fact they all seem to take place in plain rectangular rooms seems a bit of a missed opportunity. The first game had these too but it also had ones in rooms with platforms, spike pits, etc. Also the "kill ten bugs" type quests from the quest boards seem a bit generic and uninspired, but I suppose they're optional so I can't complain too much. \n\n

• Spyro 1 for PS1. It's my first time playing it, and I'm about 5 hours in. The game would probably be way too easy if I were just trying to get to the end quickly. But since I'm trying to collect most of the items (gems, dragons, eggs), it's more difficult and pretty fun. It means that I get the chance to explore the open world, solve the "puzzles" of finding hidden areas, and familiarize myself with the level / make sure that I strategically traverse it without skipping areas.
• However this also gets tedious and boring. Maybe I'm just being too meticulous about collecting and not having enough fun--even though I'm not trying to 100% it, I'm still trying to collect as much as I can in a reasonable amount of time. Not sure if I will finish the game (currently at Beast Makers world). \n\n

• Played a few hours of Soulestination.
• It's a "magic tower" game (named after the game that established the genre, Tower of the Sorcerer).
• They're technically RPGs but fights are fully automatic and boil down to sacrificing some HP to defeat each monster - the actual gameplay decision is choosing which monsters to defeat in what order, to get access to the HP potions and buffs that they're blocking the way to. (Selecting and switching equipment based on the situation is also important.) So they're actually more like puzzle games.
• I wasn't a big fan of how optimal play requires maintaining an exhaustive mental catalog of which monsters and items are located where on the multi-screen maps, and running around long distances between them. \n\n Even though I stopped playing it seemed like a well made game, if you don't mind that it's built in RPG Maker and google translated into English, and it's kind of fascinating how this niche genre of "magic tower" games exists only in China for the most part. \n\n
