  @Sazime There's a groovy track in WA that doesn't get heard in full much - the match results screen. Some fun vocals in the last couple minutes. :P

  I'm still not playing this game, because it is a gacha nightmare hellscape, but they finally added something that should've been in it since launch: Youtube Video

  @axel I agree, but also I love it and wouldn't ever ask the devs to hold back their crazy ideas. Yoshi needed the creativity back, it is the lifeblood of those games, and even though the soundtrack was a failure, the rest of Crafted World got the franchise back on track and moving forward again for the first time since Story. Have to stop myself though. Could gush about Crafted World for ages, but this is Paper Mario town. I don't have anything that cool new to say about Origami King. Without spoiling it, Boos have a pretty cool battle gimmick?

  Yeah the opening hour of the game almost had me regretting my purchase, but once it opens up and you see how interconnected the levels are and get some new combat moves it really clicks.

  This streamer, who knows more about japanese history than the developers of Ghost of Tsushima, is worth a watch.

  Just a reminder that there is a Ghost of Tsushima topic. I think it's best to keep the discussion in there. I'll just lock this topic but if people would prefer discuss the inaccuracies in it's own topic, let me know.

  @e_zed_eh_intern Still looking into this, but they've released a new tweet, deconfirming the previously confirmed offline local multiplayer it seems? Going to try to look into this more for exactly what it means, because you should still be able to play with multiple people with Switches in person locally, since that was a big feature of their last presentation. Well, they've basically confirmed THIS works, but I guess it connects through online? This tweet confirms you can play Online with either Friends or Strangers: And this tweet claims they greatly increased the Inventory Limit for the Remaster: So yeah, it seems they've cut the offline local coop. So there's still online coop with crossplay even and offline single player (with a Moogle companion, although not what I'd recommend), just no offline local multiplayer sharing a screen or not. You can still get together in person with your devices and play together, but it seems that will be functioning through online, so unfortunately it'll come with all the usual drawbacks of playing online versus playing something locally. For sure a bummer, but I planned to play this online anyway. Hell we're in Covid times so who the heck could even play locally if it was available anyways?

  Yeah, my chair (and desk) took a couple months, but they were backordered when I bought them. So I knew it would be a while. That Steelcase chair looks like it might be worse than the Ergochair2. Seems to have all the features I'm not entirely crazy about, but none of the good ones. :)

  I'm getting strong Noby Noby Boy vibes from this and that's a good thing. Does Double Fine have Production Managers or Line Producers? It seems like they are amazing at going over budget and having nothing to show for it. EDIT: Read their EGS post. They clearly never went over-budget or over schedule because they only had one person working on it. Still though Double Fine does kinda have a way of taking a long damn time.

  @sheria I almost feel that Zero Escape and Nier don't really count since it is basically necessary. I've only played Deus Ex once, but man that does sound like a cool thing to see and something I totally believe given what I saw of the game.

  Just finished watching Brandon's latest impressions of the game, it seems to be very much in line with what I would have expected after seeing the gameplay. Sneaking in an area with the right disguise reminds me so much of Hitman, that might be my preferred approach for this game. I do like that the game has crazier options, like a literal old school James Bond-style spy complete with a car packed with guns. The first thing I'm gonna do is recruit people that look like my IRL friends, lol. Youtube Video

  @axel said in Assassin's Creed Valhalla (PS/XB/PC): it looks like another 80+ hour epic and I feel discouraged before I even get started. That is another thing also. I got bored of games usually way before than this long. Half of it is ideal at max.

  So the new story is that they're in talks about fixing the frame rate but it won't be ready in time for launch. Swery retweeting everything has gone from funny to just confusing. Edit: Added link to the Swery celebration stream where he addressed the framerate during the Q&A, so you can hear the most direct response possible on the issue. Also, the stream itself was entertaining and you'll learn stuff about the game and his inspirations for things in the game with minimal spoilers. He even pulled up Google Maps and showed you his Louisiana tour route and talked about some stops he made.
