  That seems pretty reductive IMO. Like RE7 and RE8 are genuinely good returns to form for the series. The RE2 and RE4 releases are remakes which by most standards improve the original releases and bring them into the current generation.

  Then throw in the Phoenix Wright games, Monster Hunter games, Dragon’s Dogma games, Street Fighter games, DMC…

  I would argue Capcom has been on a tear of very good games especially in the last 5 years.

  So you don’t like turn based games? Unless I’m misunderstanding

  You might like FF7 Remake, the combat is sort of a hybrid where it’s mostly realtime but you can give commands via a turn menu mid combat too

  Highly recommend Millie Holton’s other stuff like the animated Long Head shorts, especially if you’re into weird Adult Swim type stuff

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Portal pinball table may be the closest we’re gonna get to Portal 3⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I recommend Portal Revolution too. It felt closer to a genuine 3 story.

  Portal Reloaded was great but also quite complex compared to the first two games and I think most people who liked 1 and 2 would find it frustratingly difficult at times.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Split Fiction sold 1 million units in its first 48 hours⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not.

  I’m still pretty early on but the dialogue is awful, and the two main characters are authors whose best ideas for novels amount to trolls and cyber ninjas. Not exactly unique or inspiring books guys. (Maybe this is some sort of point or satire I haven’t hit yet but I doubt it)

  At least, like It Takes Two the gameplay is reasonably enjoyable, particularly if you’re playing with someone who doesn’t play games a lot. It’s flashy in that Uncharted sort of way that will make them go “whoa cool”.

  Sidenote, are these frames any good? Aura seems to advertise on a few podcasts I listen to but I’m curious how people in the real world feel about them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what was the last game you played in 2024?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Finished Metaphor: Refantazio right before the end of the year. Fantastic game which is shockingly relevant to so much going on at the moment around the world.

  If it looks like a developer made a mistake, it was actually the product owner. Or the user. Or cosmic rays. But never the developer.
