To clarify, I meant that I’m fine with multiple things not being 10/10 (I was thinking of Metaphor as a 9/10 across the board, assuming a 10/10 is something I say about things very rarely) as long as some one thing is, like just the ending or just gameplay. I’m not consisent with that though anyways, I thought that Dark Souls 1 really does have 10/10 world exploration early on, yet I don’t like it because of a lot of other problems. It’s all really just gut feelings in the end, it was the best way I could explain why Metaphor feels like it’s missing something.

Personally, I actually gave it a negative review. The exploration generally is very fun, but so much of the levels, activities, combat ranged from unimpressive to infruriating. It’s basically carried by just being open-world Sonic, which is a formula for success.

I actually enjoyed the open-world HUB of Shadow Generations, and the game as a whole, much more. In fact, that game probably set my expectations too high, even knowing Frontiers was infamously janky.

In order, from the first? I have only played W3, but I do have the classics on the backlog, or at least W2.

Continuing Metaphor: ReFantazio. It’s the most consistently polished game Atlus made (that I played) in years, though maybe SMT VV has a chance once I get to it. The only ones that come to mind are Persona 5/Royal (however much I prefer P3 and P4), and Etrian Odyssey V. Both of which had longer development times compared to their series, who knew?

My only complaint is that it doesn’t have any 10/10 aspect that I’d love, most of my favourite games are somewhat flawed anyway, as long as they have that special aspect that clicks. But then, Persona 3 had nothing like that until the endgame, so there’s still time for it to surprise me.

I started reading casually, currently Harry Potter to see what the fuss was about.

And I guess TV shows and anime too for years, but I usually only watch these while eating.

Wait, you mean North Korean soldiers were bought by Russia?

Do they allow that there?

Can’t believe a quarter of my playtime was The Witcher 3. I don’t know if I would’ve even finished it if I played on PC, it’s so damn long. I don’t play much AAA though I guess, but JRPGs are long too.

Also, it just occured to me that I spent plenty of time emulating too though…

I specifically want turning the Deck rather than moving it left and right, and I only know of the latter, but I didn’t look around much.

Good to know, I figured that maybe it was such common knowledge that nobody mentions it online. (Or I phrased the search wrong)

Yakuza 0 goes through all the emotions with its storytelling: you start by singing karaoke, then become a fugitive, you go bowling, lose a friend, watch a dirty video…

Also, holy shit, most of you guys missed the point. Edit: Wait, did I miss the point? I thought this post was about wrong games for funsies

Though you DO actually fight a god in Yakuza 5 as a sidequest.

We had a whole subject dedicated to economy and taxes, and yet most of the people voted for the conservative party promising tax cuts out of thin air. (Though it seems they are growing out of it…)

And as for biology, we have people who don’t know how vaccines or genetics work, either, even though we definitely covered those, so I don’t know if this is the problem.

Back then a lot of communities died after a week or so, including mine because I’m lazy, so if it kept going for more than 10 posts then it was something already

Chuck Norris, back in 2010s. I thought I heard of a heart attack before that.

According to google, they need to birth one calf a year after a 9 month pregnancy, so they are pregnant 3/4 of their adult life, that sounds close enough to constant. Also, did you need to make 5 different comments?

This sale, only Sonic X Shadow Generations. I have a big payday in December though and will be buying a lot for Christmas.

Maybe Sonic is good again. I’d hope. I’ll buy Frontiers since I’ve tried to avoid spoilers for too long.

Good on you, you’re innocent, incredibly so

Edit: But for a genuine answer, getting stuck in washing machines is an infamous part of porn “plots”

It says the oligarchs were losing power for the last decade, especially after the start of the war and some “anti-oligarch” laws…

How is Ukraine a corrupt oligarchy? Seems to be as much as every other country in the world, probably less than the USA and Russia

(Edit: Using the definition that it’s just a government controlled by a small group of people)

Started Trauma Center 2 and 7th Dragon 2020, both sequels to games I played last year. The first one I only played for 10-20 minutes so far though, the latter would probably be unbearable without turbo mode via emulation. Actually, 7th Dragon DS already was, but the story and setting is mildly neat, and I might be hungry for games with more party building. If you fast forward to the dragon/boss fights it’s alright.

Hard pick because I listen to a game or series for a while, then another. Just today I went and listened to a lot of Sonic tracks, which I do once every few months. I guess Atlus games (SMT, Persona, EO), Metal Gear Rising, Ace Attorney, TWEWY are in the lead off the top of my head, but after a month I might give a different answer. My relaxing music playlist is mostly the official classical arrangements of Etrian Odyssey 1+2, so let’s go with that.
