Turn-Based RPG Fest 2024: Official Trailer
  • I wouldn't say a big find(and not in this exact video), but I loved Warhammer 40k: Rogue Trader, which is on sale for this event.

    If you like numbery CRPGs with fun choices and great companions, give it a look. I knew very little about 40k going in and it made me a big fan of the entire universe when I never expected to be.

    I can be overwhelming sometimes and definitely still buggy since a new DLC just came out, but an absolute timeless game in my opinion.

  • Skyrim lead designer says it will be 'almost impossible' for Elder Scrolls 6 to meet fan expectations: 'Marketing departments just put their heads in their hands and weep'
  • The reality is that it's been 20 years since many of those "best games ever". 20 years is a huge chunk of your working life. It's just not realistic to keep the same people that whole time, or even a percentage of them.

    People don't want to think about the reality of it, they just want content to devour.

  • Square Enix admits Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Final Fantasy 16 profits "did not meet expectations"
  • I thought remake's combat system was great and it was my game of the year when I came out. FF16 was also great for me, but it was never going to make everyone happy, it had far too many issues and was a focused action game.

    Ff7 rebirth though- holy shit, it was just too fucking long. Too exhausting to play. So much shit to do it was overwhelming and SO, SO much filler. So many terrible, stupid story decisions undercutting emotional moments and jumping the shark on itself. I went from loving it because it was more remake to hating it because of many of the changes and the writing. Just...exhausting.

    Square just seem like they are missing hard because FF16 was too focused, and FFRebirth is too big and up it's own ass.

  • Just AuDHD life paths
  • Tbh, I was part of a very LGBTQA+ group of people, but I was one of the very few just straight people. I made out with a lot of dudes and that was enough for me to tell that I wasn't into it. Didn't feel that same heart-thumping feeling that I feel with a person of the opposite sex.

    I do still kind of wish I was bi just to see what it's like. But I'm straighter than an arrow

  • Borderlands' theatrical run grinds to a halt with just $31 million worldwide, which is barely enough to cover the marketing costs
  • Slightly off-topic: might be alone in this, but I actually really enjoyed Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. It's nice, self-contained, has some fun action, some cool scenes, and it turned me on to Jake Gyllenhaal and I've liked his work ever since. It's Generic and schlocky but it's better than the usual videogame movie garbo.

    It fits nicely into that B-movie slot IMO.

  • ‘The Rings Of Power’ Season 2, Episode 4 Review: ‘Eldest’ Is Another Atrocious Disaster
  • Yeah I feel like rings of power is just a hatewagon everywhere. I've been really impressed with the sets and costumes in both seasons. They are a beautiful treat. And while I'm not terribly interested in the characters or story it's good watching just for that.

  • Is Elder Scrolls 6 doomed to fail? I can't see how it will work
  • Starfield was garbage IMO. I didn't even pay for it and wanted my money back in less than 3 hours.

    But I AM still hopeful for Elder Scrolls 6. The weakness of Starfield is exploration is barely a thing; incredibly boring procedural generation is the cause. There is little to no value getting excited exploring the world and the incredible world of Skyrim is what makes it good.

    I seriously doubt Bethesda is dumb enough to try procedural generation with the next elder scrolls game, and if they are then it will be dead in the water just by association. But a game similar to Skyrim will likely still find a stronger audience, even if just for the return to form.

  • Are there any cartoons you watched as kid and watched back as an adult and how does it hold up
  • I've been watching Hercules: The Legendary journeys from the 90s, and I watched them a ton as a kid, too. Love most episodes still even tho Kevin Sorbo is now a shitmonkey. They honestly had really positive messages, and it's just campy enough for the costumes and ancient animation to still be fun.
