    The last thing we watched, cartoon/animu edition

    I'm so disappointed by this season of spy X family, not only is it doing the usual boring shift from comedy to shonen that sadly most comedy do, but it also completly ignore the fact that the thre main reason to watch this show are: Anya, Anya and Anya and for some reason decided to completely...

    I really like concept art book, but they always end up being crazy expensive and often only available for limited time (like this one). I brought one for citizen sleeper and iirc it was something like 150$ (and that was a pre order,so figure cross it'll come out good). I can only really afford...

    What are you currently playing?

    Played a bit of age of wonder 4. Its fun but lack character, you can make your own race, but the racial ability are pretty minor and the various origin (determine your starting units) all kinda come down to the same. Eariler game had much more unique units depending on what combination of...

    Well he does party there. In a vaccum, running into the Shinra gang in costa del sol who are just on vacation and don't give a shit about you is pretty funny, but its hard to stomach when you consider that the Turk mass murdered tens or maybe hundreds of thousands of people by dropping the...

    What are you currently playing?

    I don't remember the detail, but the damage the enemy do against you scale with your HP pretty much linearly, so HP just make your bar longer and nothing else. Mostly agree with the story, it felt like the least interesting story they could have done with the setting, would have much prefered...

    Game Articles and Videos Thread

    Looks decent but I wonder if every CRPG from now on will just suffer from the "BG3 did it better" curse? Star ocean 2 is great, it pretty much carry the entire franchise on its back at this point. There's a good skill system/crafting system, combat are dynamic with a lot of different character...

    tbh I'd like a remake of the trilogy, fix the awful combat of 1, and change the story of 2 so that its actually about finding a way to stop the collector rather than bum around with cerberus in what turn out to be a side chapter at best and then finish with actually implementing the solution...

    Humble Bundle Game Bundles

    It's a bit clunky, but sand of salzaar is really good once you get used to it, kinda like mount and blade.

    That's a even bigger shame, loved me some single player warcraft 3 and would gladly play another one.

    That's a real shame, SC2 single player was super fun and I went trough it multiple time. But RTS are clearly dying and I can't really say I'm surprised, MOBA offer all the fun part of it minus the crazy reflex needed.

    CG's 2023 year in review.

    My memory is so crap I can't remember what I played this year pass the last few months, so... I do remember fospoken cause yeah, could have easily been good, but yesh the writer had a vendetta against square or something. AC6 was good! imo one of the least good AC game, but that's still good...

    GRAND THEFT AUTO 6 OFFICIAL TRAILER (DECEMBER 2023)

    Honestly the only way I could be really interested would be if they tried something interesting with a massive country as a map with really well generated countryside/town (possibly using some good AI advance) and a few hand crafted main city. But I feel like old GTA, with a fun snarky single...
