Can’t imagine anyone actually making a guillotine with such a long blade. It wouldn’t be able to get enough momentum to cleanly cut through in a single motion, which is the entire point of the guillotine. Is that slop?

reminiscent of F-Zero
Pretty sure that’s because the guy is literally recycling assets from F-Zero GX. 🤣

At least they finally showed more environments than “flat desert junkyard”, and some jumps.

First that MMO, now this? Couldn’t you have done this slop after Horizon 3?

Ghost Trick was originally a DS game, so if you don’t care about HD artwork tracking down the DS version is an option.
- Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't? 2 weeks ago:
Honestly, I kinda want to play Stellar Blade to see if the gooner bait makes up for what I’ve heard about the gameplay, but I’m not gonna shell out actual money for it, especially since it’s got Denuvo.
Also, I know it hasn’t even been announced yet, because Metroid Prime 4 only just came out a couple months ago, but Metroid Prime 5. At this point, it would have to be a Switch 2 game, and I refuse to get one because fuck that game key card shit.

- Comment on Real talk, which would you rather have: Megaman 12, or Megaman X9? 3 months ago:
I was going to go for ZX3, but an Elf Wars game is an even better suggestion, which is why Capcom will never do it.

- Comment on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, now on GOG 3 months ago:
Neat. Always happy to see more stuff on GOG, even if it ends up just being a game that I still won’t buy on yet another platform.

Contextually, “late” doesn’t really work as “not on time”, though? But yeah, the article confirms that Itagaki is dead.

Can confirm, was kid in the 90s. Sadly the reality of working in the industry did not measure up. Same as being a paleontologist, strangely enough.

If you’d like to don your eyepatch and tricorn, a dev build (ie Denuvo-less) of v1.0.6 got leaked last November.

Upvote for using POV correctly.
- Comment on What would stop you from switching to a flip phone (or dumbphone) in 2025? 5 months ago:
I’ve been using a flip phone as my actual phone for a while now. I just find the tactility of being able to flip open the phone to answer, and flip shut the phone to hang up, is so much more satisfying that swiping on a screen. I do have my smartphone because I need WhatsApp and MFA for work related reasons, but I have no desire to be accessible 24/7, so if I’m out and about you can fuck off until I get back.

Fine print at the bottom says it’s footage from Switch 2 version, which there’d be no need to specify if it was an exclusive.
- Comment on Chex Quest 6 months ago:
However, we were pleasantly surprised at how good it was and played it a ton.
That’s because it’s a licensed mod of Doom. Literally, the first level was just the first level of Doom reskinned. I replayed it a few years back, along with 2 and 3 (3 includes a remaster of 1 & 2), and it holds up pretty well.
- Comment on Darksiders 4 | Announcement Teaser 6 months ago:
Calling 3 a soulslike is kinda stretching it, I think. I would say rather that 3 does exploration and upgrades similarly to 1 but has combat that’s more similar to 2. I do think they’re definitely worth getting though.

Damn, really? That sucks, thanks for the heads up.
- Comment on Darksiders 4 | Announcement Teaser 6 months ago:
2&3 are both “here’s what the others were doing while War was chained up for a hundred years”. Their stories are set in motion because of the premature apocalypse, and will probably have implications for humanity further in the future, but there’s no impact on War directly, aside from 3 implying >!how Strife lost his guns for you to get them in the first two games!<, and I don’t expect any plot points from 2&3 to come back up during 4.
As for Genesis, the main thing you should keep in mind is that it isn’t a mainline game. It’s more an isometric twin stick shooter/hack’n’slash, and the gameplay isn’t as deep as with the main games. But it’s got co-op, if you have someone to play with, and it does provide some characterization for Strife as well as showing an example of the sorts of missions the Horsemen took for the Charred Council.

I personally enjoyed Genesis, but it wasn’t a solo Strife game. You play as both Strife and War.
- Comment on Darksiders 4 | Announcement Teaser 6 months ago:
I guess breaking the seventh seal also revived Fury’s horse. But also, no solo game for Strife? Sadface.
