Got to review Tales of Berseria Remastered, which remains a good game. Coming back now though the narrative feels so much more impactful... Given the state of the world.

It also feels dated in a way previous remasters don't.

It's a very long introduction.

Definitely agree.

This is good to hear. I was dreading sitting on the combat in my review cause I was afraid I just wasn't getting it. I was about 20 hours in and felt I hadat least a semi grasp on it by that point.

I will say that customizing difficulty and playstyle in options helps a lot.

Well, that's good to hear at least.

Do I want to play Marathon? Been mulling the question around in my head for a bit.

I finally have some time to catch up on some backlog stuff...

Oh, there is definitely a lot of that lol.

Such a good game, enjoy!

This is on par with his stance on the region, which is whyI got severely turned off, that and all his bad take anti-trans bullshit.

In the same vein as the Stan Lee stuff, he attacks people who really haven't done anything to him, and kinda ends every episode with some disgustingly wrong rant.

So, has anybody played Tokyo Xtreme Racer? I was excited for it but this is literally the store page on PS5, which is kinda not how you sell me your game.

I might grab it, otherwise Ill pick up JDM again, which I know I loved.

I dfd a Review for Greedfall: The Dying World which the sequel to a game I absolutely loved for some reason.

In that way, this game hurt me, right in my heart. I'm still plasying it though so I guess that is something.

Yeahhhhh... A quick scroll through the Nintendo Switch 2 eShop would contradict this...

Thats the benefit of being a reviewer. Though Shenmue kinda taught me to play everything all the them.

Play Demonschool!

Lol. This is a real image of Gang of Dragon on Steam. There is... Just no way...

07.03.2026 16:16 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

If it makes you feel any better. I am confident Gang of Dragon was never real.

Damn it. I have wanted a Victrix fight stick and this one is really nice.

Thankfully it is sold out because I do not have 500 dollars I could justifiable spend on a fight stick.

Annother awesome game getting ported to the Nintendo Switch 2.

Cannot Recommend Kena: Bridge of Spirits enough with its tons of charm and engaging narrative.

05.03.2026 18:05 ๐Ÿ‘ 3 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I just... I have never really asked why do a port of a game before but City Hunter really feels unneeded at best and pointless at worst.

Cannot recommend the 2024 Film based on the manga enough. Its on Netflix. You will have more fun watching it.

Seems like my order has been delayed but cant wait.

Just as well, I have so much to get through, Pokopia can be a zen cap off when I am done.

Finally finished a review I have been working on. Hopefully will publish soon.

Here is a hint...

You live with it.

I had a lot of fun with it, but yeah, eventually I hard hit a point where It took way too much energy. Interested to how the Offline Edition might change things.

The worst part about this is that half the people with their fingers near the button have investments in this shit.

LET IT DIE had 10 years, which is massive in Live-Service years. Also pretty happy that this is another studio not killing their game when the service dies, instead bringing it offline.

A game called LET IT DIE refuses to die, go figure.

04.03.2026 17:05 ๐Ÿ‘ 3 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yeah, doesn't seem super smart.

04.03.2026 16:20 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

You know, part of the problem here is you wait two years to port to PC then are shocked players on PC have already moved on...

Just Saying...

04.03.2026 15:30 ๐Ÿ‘ 3 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Definitely, especially if you have the friends to rock it with, you will be in for a very good time.

04.03.2026 14:22 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I can see this for sure.

03.03.2026 21:19 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yeah. The big issue was always going to be just how it was introduced.

03.03.2026 20:55 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I agree with this. I just really need to know HOW involved Tencent was and it feels very shady to hide that connection.

I feel bad but I feel like there are a lot of mysteries here I want to see if we get answers too.
