Yeah, when I was writing music reviews for an actual column it was tremendously dull trying to come up with novel ways to describe the sound of Godsmack/Three Days Grace/et al for like the 50th time in a row. So this sounds... exactly like their previous album. Same guitar tones, same song...

He is, literally uses remixes of FF music. Culex is also a type of mosquito and Golbez was a fly, although that might be just someone reusing their source for "exotic" names lol. (The sprite is also not dissimilar from Kefka's final form, though the crystals would imply he came from an earlier game)

IDK about live service. They mention "ongoing support" but Arkham had that since City and all it really boiled down to were challenge maps and costumes. Seems like relatively inoffensive super-hero open world (with the classic excuse of "This one bad guy has turned everyone into zombie-expies"...

Yeah but no time for that because this Sephiroth dude is bad news. We know he's the bigger problem because this anti-social awkward grumbly guy we met 3 days ago said so. Sure, all he seems to have done is impaled the cackling megalomaniac villain we were planning ot ahead of us, and killed the...

Long rambling prior post aside. Sea of Stars was the top pick, Age of Wonders 4 as the runner up I was adept/sane enough to avoid the absolute drizzleshits so I don't specifically have the bottom feeder pile. Wild Hearts and Darkest Dungeon 2 were probably the disppointers. Everything else...

Eh, there is the two factor gate. And while bots are sophisticated enough to do that via email, the current iteration isn't a thousands posts/users message board to target

Yeah running a forum is pretty painless, but if you were here, remember when they stopped paying even loose attention to the old Escapist forums and almost every section was overrun by thousands of bot posts.

Though if the game was cross-gen, you usually have to get the PS5 version (though you should own it, for the most part it was all dual-sale) if you want the adaptive triggers (Idk why anyone would, but people initially raved about them, to me it just feels like the controllers broken) or the...

Well of what I recall playing this year: I know Evil West and MH:Rise were older lol. - Well, to quickly rundown, Evil West was fine. Neat concepts but never really seemed to popoff. Kind of clunky in boss fights too. - Monster Hunter I'll save time and just hit the only negative I had, which...

Kind of the problem with using Discord too. A community of any size will basicaly blaze the feed fast as you can type (IE the only time you can have an actualy conversation on the Wayfinder (a single game that has currently a pretty minute playerbase) is like, 1-4am. There are comparitively...

Between the stubborn insistence on clinging to the 2005 controls and the complete abandonment of the singleplayer game features in GTA 5 (only to sort of add them years later in Online, after buying a whole new version on the next gen, where most late era/cross gen games allowed an upgrade code)...

Despite being generally enmeshed in that, he never really comes up in my radar. Back when I still watched AngryJoe I know he had a couple of crossovers or whatever, but nothing significant. And then just hither and thither mentions, usually cause he was in some controversy or another (I forget...

And yet, as my friend eloquently commented... Also I didn't actually read the article further but implied by absence is it was not the best selling game on Xbox/MS Store, which is hilarious
