I probably wouldn't recommend it. The game has a cheese strat where you can just stay back and shoot charged projectiles till the enemies are dead. This works on most bosses too. And obviously this strat kinda ruins the point of it being a beat 'em up.

I used to play the Sailor Moon beat 'em up for the Mega Drive as a kid, but I cannot remember if I ever 1CC'd it back then. So I revisited it today and got a 1CC of normal difficulty with Sailor Venus whom I also used back then.

I haven't practiced shmups/STGs for two years. I revisited Crimzon Clover World EXplosion hoping to beat my PB of Arrange Boost mode with Type-I.

Started Stage 5 with seven extra lives, started chain-dying at the hell of hall, and ended with a choke at the final boss.😆

This game from 1983 does better at teaching positioning and thinking about potential threats before they show up. If you remain stagnant, you get snowballed on.🤣

With the availability of arcade games via modern ports and emulation along with tools to help a player practice, dismissing arcade games for having "cheap" and "unfair" design now speaks more about a person's taste and/or refusal to stand up to the challenge than a game's design.

I bought #FightingEXLayer. I haven't played any 6-button fighting games extensively, so it's gonna be a big challenge getting used to it.

If I'm gonna whiff a dashing attack, at least I'd want to look like I fully committed to it before I eat the punish.

I'm not really into the parry-centric gameplay that you see in Sekiro or Lies of P, but if I will play such a game, then it's going to be Dinoblade.

Since it's spooky month and there's a second remake in the works, I've decided to replay Fatal Frame 2, one of the three survival horror games I cleared in the late '90s to mid-2000s alongside Dino Crisis and Kuon.

Now that I finally own an official copy of Doom, I revisited the Dino Crisis 2 weapons mod and "Carnivore Disaster" dinosaur enemy mod. It was tough trying to get out of the starting room in E1M3 on hard mode. Luckily I was able to purchase the dual SMGs after getting some kills.

I've been having a lot of fun playing @deathgroundgame.com on single player, and I wish it would have its bug fixes and updates soon.

Despite my Acer Nitro 5 laptop's GTX 1650 Ti not meeting the minimum requirements, I am still able to run it around 60 fps on the lowest settings.

Finished the last two episodes of Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders. It's nice to finally clear the game that scared me as a kid back in the late '90s.
