Reached the ending of Hades II. Yeah, that's not great.
I understant why they went with that, since it's thematically in line with the first game, but it needed far more setup to work and even then, there were other paths they coould have taken (better ones, in my opinion)

I sure love professors that just read their slides to you and call it a "lesson"
Just send me a pdf my guy, and spare me 3 hours of boredom.

The new trigun trailer is literally a hollywood action teaser, complete with the echoey piano at the beginning. I had the exact same issue with the first season, despite enjoying the animation. Anime may be formulaic but it was its own formula, at least

I've reached the infamous Last Judge runback in Silksong and I have to say, it's not that bad.
I also beat the boss in 4 tries so maybe if you're forced to do it dozens of times it's worse but I found the platforming relatively straightforward.

Sliksong is absolutely wonderful man, I'm having a blast with it.
I hope they don't nerf the economy, the commentary with the beads and faith is great. All the cheeky humor is great. More bech traps please, and thank you Team Cherry.

One of the most surprising things, besides Hornet's mobility, is the ammount of dialogue.
Even unique one, that happens if you sequence break or encounter things out of order. Very detailed.
Great game so far

This is such a stupid and superficial post. Yes Qzil.la is a bad company with involvement in Ai bu they also produced plenty of animation that has no Ai in it.
This project is helmed by a talented team of industry veterans, and dismissing their work like this with no proof is a bad look.

I hadn't heard of Qzilla, the production company behind Crunchyroll's Sekiro anime. The trailer okay, but something felt kind of off. Looked them up on MAL and they didn't seem to have much motion in terms of the thirteen things its produced. Checked the company website and lo and behold.

I've been replaying Drakengard and I have to drop all pretenses: I love this game and not only in a pretentious "The story is interesting but the gameplay is bad" type of way.
I like the gameplay too. Clunky, grindy and underbaked as it may be I like it all the same.

Been reading The Gunslinger these past days, devouring it mostly.
Baffled to think people ever described this book as slow or boring. It is many things (weirdly horny, tense, weirdly funny) but none of those two.

I was far less cynical than other people when that first trailer dropped but man, this one is abysmal.

I'm playing 9 Years of Shadows and this is clearly made by people who love old anime, chiefly Saint Seiya.
It's a mix that normally would not work, but it does. A contrast of old and new that could be jarring but isn't (much).
Volta animation did the intro/trailer

I have been playing The Great Ace Attorney and I must admit, rarely I've seen such an apt representation of the British.
Foppish, arrogant, openly racist yet somehow patting themselves on the back for being so openminded as to mingle with the lesser cultures.

First New PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT episode was... ok. Just fine.
I don't want to do a too extensive analysis, just found some things a bit underwhelming with respect to what Imaishi could have (and has already) done.

People saying BG3 falls hard in Act 3 were right.
While there is some interesting stuff, the structure of the act just doesn't work well and everything feels like a side mission.
The nice interwoven stories between side and main quests are almost completely lost.

Got my Steam account hacked, apparently because Internet Archive had a data breach some time ago and I was dumb enough to use the same password.

Been playing through Lies of P(eak)'s DLC so I'll compile my thoughts here.
'Gator - What a cool boss. All his tells are very clean, it's very aggressive and puts a lot of pressure on you. At the beginning you barely know what to do and by the end you're clowning on it.

Funny, I think I broke Cazador's fight in BG3.
I had cast Daylight on my character so when getting close to him the fight started without the cutscene playing, and he was a lot weaker since the ritual was not started.

I listened to/read some coverage of the recent game events and I must say, I feel completely disconnected from mainstream game media.
I feel a distinct lack of depth to the way people cover this stuff now, a lack of curiosity and enthusiasm, for both the aesthetics and the mechanics.

I think the reason I'm enjoying Baldur's Gate 3 so much, besides it being an excellent game overall, are the characters.
in many a western RPG, characters are wet rags with barely any sauce. Dare I say, BG3 managed to make JRPG characters in a western game.
