Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel

I ended up enjoying this one a lot more than I thought I would. I generally like the Borderlands series but I always thought this game was more of a filler story but it does some interesting things. The oxygen/boost mechanic could have been really annoying but due to plentiful pockets of O2, it just added to your movement options. Although a completely minor detail, the one thing I absolutely loved is how your own character responds to characters and quests. All the other Borderlands games have people talking at you constantly but having your character talk back makes everything blend together so much better. I'll probably pick away at the DLC for this one as I also work on finishing BL2. Safe to say, I'm going to be very prepared for the third game's launch in September.

I love whoever made this betting ticket.

@inflorescence I actually had to make this search awhile ago since I fell in love with Cosmic Star Heroine as well.

I like VR and always need new experiences in that realm, but Rick and Morty is something that really rubs me the wrong way so hard pass from me.

@tokyoslim Oh, I believe it. It's just hard to get that hyped for a series that really hasn't changed all that much over 4 games.

The placement of number 2 over number 3 is truly mind-boggling.

Lasy day of the month bump. I'll probably be updating on Sunday or Monday, so no need to rush your updates.

Slay the Spire

First run, first time even playing this game... bam, beat all three bosses, got to see credits. While that makes the game sound easy, it certainly isn't and I just got extremely lucky and had exactly 1 HP left on that final boss. Due to its roguelike nature, there's multiple characters and unlocks to try out so I'm far from done with this one but I love the deck-building aspect and truly how different each run feels. You can modify your decks to really suit different playstyles and that bit of RNG goodness will keep you coming back for more.

Godzilla 2014 is probably my least favorite Godzilla movie that I've seen. Way too much focus on the humans, nearly no focus on Godzilla. I don't watch these movies for character development or plot, I watch them to see monsters fight each other and destroy stuff. I'd even rather watch Godzilla 1998 because I can at least laugh along with it.

I really enjoyed King of the Monsters. It isn't the best Godzilla movie but it's still a lot of fun and gives the audience exactly what this sort of experience should deliver.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters

I've been an unapologetic Godzilla fan since I was a kid, staying up late on Saturday nights to watch a man in a rubber suit destroy model cities. When Godzilla 2014 was released, critics praised it for breathing new life into the beast but I thought it was utter trash - the main focus was on the humans and Godzilla had about five minutes of screen time, as each time a fight was about to break out, it would cut to something else. With this release, critics absolutely hate it... and it's exactly what I wanted. Big ol' monsters duking it out and (most) of the movie serves to showcase how awesome they are. Some of the shots with Ghidorah, Mothra, and Godzilla are absolutely breathtaking and guess what? They fight! Multiple times even! Way better than I expected, still too many human scenes though which does make the film feel a bit too long.
