Verho - Curse of Faces being played on the console pc.

This is quite good. Of all the throwbacks in the past few years, this one seems to be trying the hardest to feel like the Field. I had to lock the framerate to 25 as everything else felt wrong.

WHY DID I BUY THIS?!?!?!?

Frigging jalapeño infused beer.

値段が高すぎる!
ヤバい!

Just gave Queen's Domain demo a run.

It is, as the kids say, a vibe.

Easily one of my favourites.

Finally sat down to play Chop Goblins fully after owning it for about a year.

Super short, but absolutely the kind of thing I love. Reminds me of a PS1 demo game with the vibes. There needs to be more short, very silly and varied (location wise) games out there.

Oh! YouTube is now recommending me "Chinese perspectives" on the current debates over Taiwan and Takaichi's take.

I mean, how bad can these opinion be...

Oh. Oh, no!

The ramen store, but only with about 15 people waiting just out of shot.

Painted in Blood is such an odd fish. I wouldn't call it a boomshoot, but more like a mid 2000s Slavfps. It felt like it was more console coded on my main pc, so I switched up to my pseudo-console setup. The result? Zero pad aim assist and a goofy feeling input.

Seems cool, but needs work.

Ok, after about 18 hours and me being very dramatic about it yesterday, I finished it.

As a game, it does take Doom in some interesting directions. As a game full of modern stuff...
Eh...
I think I'm going to stick to my guns and say this may be my last ID game.
Good, but flawed.

While I have my issues with it, the fact they reference the beginning of Doom 2016 and then follow it right up with "and then John was a zombie" is fucking brilliant.

You vs the guy she told you not to worry about.

Testing both, the Xbox thing feels nice in the hands, but I can't really comment on it much beyond the two minutes I used it.

I do think it is stupid it is considered an Xbox, considering it can only play the PC versions of the game's.

I've not been to Tokyo since the midsummer.

I actually like Japan during colder months way more.

I got to the second world.

This game is so pretty it is absurd. It feels like a FromSoft and Bethesda crossover.

The more I play this, the more bananas it becomes.

It started as a weird extraction soulslike with Elderborne combat, then as you go along and upgrade things, the weapons add abilities from others and it becomes like a high-level Diablo 2 where everything explodes with poison and fire! I love it!

I grabbed Voin with the bundle as it was on offer as well. I saw an @alphabetagamer.bsky.social vid a year or so ago and it looked interesting so I took the plunge.

Fuggin hell! This is really cool!

Gotta love the packs on Fanatical. This is one of the better lots I've got in the past year I think.

Well, I hope it is one of the better packs.

Spinning bird bite!

I came (sic) for the jiggle
I stayed because it was a fucking great game and made me appreciate 3D fighters

RIP in titties big man.

I wake up and autopilot onto my phone, despite me telling myself not to do so.

GZDoom on the timeline.

I swear Typhoon alerts are my main form of entertainment.

They are entertainment because they rarely hit.

Are you sure about that price Fanatical? That is about $1000.
