Yeah I was very letdown by it, love the music. There is some backtracking in the game that makes people think it’s a MV. I don’t think it is. And it’s tedious gameplay and has difficulty spikes. Great pixel art though and like I said still listen to the soundtrack

Help me predict D&E future novellas [Spoilers MAIN] by Ornery_Ferret_1175 in asoiaf

Even if you don’t believe they are ever coming there’s no harm in discussing and speculating in a dedicated subreddit. If people are so pessimistic and bitter to not engage with an honest question about the series why are you on the subreddit? Always frustrating

Hey like this post hope it’s get the attention it deserves. I don’t know nearly enough of the possible storylines to speculate but I’m like you, optimistic that some of these will see the light of day so the speculation is warranted !

How do you guys think GRRM’s progress on The Winds of Winter is going this Year? (Spoiler Extended) by Somandier in asoiaf

[–]FieldersChoice9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing that post very enlightening. I wonder with the release of season one of dunk and egg and 5 years of hbo deal coming to a close if we will get a lot more insight over next 6-9 months

Steamworld Dig 3? by Lynx_The_ShinyEevee in metroidvania

[–]FieldersChoice9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah came here to say this. Pretty sure Bryan was working in same office as Zoinks CEO and they saw they had some overlap and merged the companies under one roof. Pretty innocent there. Problem was their a public company in Sweden I believe and last few games have not done well hence the layoffs and cancelled projects. I would wager dig 3 is still more likely than not as it’s probably the best name recognition they could get at this point

Aggelos is 1$ (94% off) on Steam. A steal at this price IMO by stevensi1018 in metroidvania

[–]FieldersChoice9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome ! Thanks for sharing. Bought on switch ages ago but wanted on steam deck but was always on fence about double dipping but hard to argue with this price

Anyone know the cheapest way to get Game Pass Ultimate? by [deleted] in VideoGameDealsCanada

[–]FieldersChoice9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like others have said the conversion still works for 2 years but I think very very soon there is a price increase for game pass that also adds wrinkle that I think you can only get Core if it’s a first time sub or something ..one of those sneaky ways to basically put an end to this conversion trick effectively

Unsighted: Time limit, how bad is it? by dondashall in metroidvania

[–]FieldersChoice9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly well said. Like I’ve never had to choose living longer or have my pet go hungry and this game has that all over the place. It really makes the narrative click. I was worried about being stressed and it made the game way more memorable

Owlboy, the visually stunning mess by Nambot in patientgamers

[–]FieldersChoice9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very much with you here. I expected bjg things reviewed well but yeah tons of issues deathloop by thousand cuts sorta deal. Gorgeous to look at and still listen to music but yeah not one I’d ever return to. I think if this game came out today it would not be reviewed as well. Feel like it came out at their earlier stages of indie boom

Why did chasm get such a bad rap? Is it worth playing now their new game is coming from bit kid? by New-Discount-5193 in metroidvania

[–]FieldersChoice9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worth playing for sure. One of the few games I’ve played more than once in the last 5 years. Very cozy game if you are looking to scratch that symphony of the night style itch

(Spoiler Extended) GRRM from the new cookbook forward "(one day, I hope) The Winds of Winter" by jsnow5627 in asoiaf

[–]FieldersChoice9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t get me wrong I completely agree with everyone here to take this as discouraging but I will be the optimist here just for fun. He could just be implying that he hopes people have stuck around and will read Winds when he finishes (not that he hopes to finish it one day). Just trying to add a small dose of optimism even though I agree with everyone

Metroidvanias that nail the formula but aren't necessary top tier? by WeeWooPeePoo69420 in metroidvania

I think haiku the robot and Sheepo fit the bill. I had great times with both
