The arrogance of this dude, lordy.

@pataloon.bsky.social so cool to see Threshold on Polygon!

Okay but serious question who is flooding into America from Canada? They have all-dressed ruffles up there and it's pretty chill all things considered.

I don't know about you but even when my sleep is unfuckled I'm still on that caffeine drip because my chemical dependency might rebel if I'm not.

And then BAM! Surprise meeting with under an hour left in the workday.

That's what's really getting me, I love how messy they all are. I enjoyed Veilguard, but coming back to this reminds me of what I was missing. They're so great and terrible.

I hadn't played it in like a decade until I started a playthrough last night. I'm now nearly 8 hours deep and loving it so much. I'm glad it wasn't just nostalgia glasses making this game good for me.

Every time I eat spicy cup noodles I'm thankful for the scientific advancements we have made as a species.

If eating an entire block of aged cheddar is wrong then I don't wanna be right - sincerely, a large man with a mighty need for cheese.

That's so cool! Where did you get it from?

No problem!

Wo Long is honestly a bit harder, but I found the combat to be super satisfying.
New GoW is fantastic! Definitely worth it especially now that they're on PC, they tell a great story.
I'd also recommend the Guardians of the Galaxy game from a few years ago which was super underrated.

3/3

Similar games that I really enjoyed are: Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, Jedi: Fallen Order, God of War 2018/Ragnarok, Sekiro, Nioh 2, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. I think these all are somewhat similar to Wukong, but excel in places where I found it to be lacking.

Sorry to type your ear off!

2/3

That being said, I think it has some wonderful art direction and that the animated interludes are delightful.

I think that the game feels like it stepped out of time from another generation and I wish it had more meat on its bones. I would have loved puzzles or platforming to spice things up

Your mileage may vary:

I found the combat to be quite tedious and often devolved into me popping my buffs and whacking as hard as I could to get through the encounter. I found the level design to be overly linear and samey. PS5 performance was poor. I was expecting a real story to be told.
Cont.

I'm torn on this. I feel like Sony is generally good to their first-party devs and they pump out the most consistently good titles out there. I'd love to see what From could do with Sony's backing. Bloodborne 2? 👀

However, I think it would be a shame to have their games locked to one platform.
