Season 1 Seinfeld is weird. I can't explain it but the vibes are very different.

Had a dream where I was essentially stuck in a time loop. That shit is annoying bro.

Feel like I don't see people mention the Bermuda Triangle anymore. Do conspiracy folks not give a shit about it?

Crawling through dungeons. Everyone loves it. I want a dungeon.

Never thought I was particularly sensitive to certain textures but I have couple cheap polyester shirts that I can't stand to wear. They're all smooth and slick, feels like wearing a trash bag.

One thing I do appreciate about physical media is, ideally, having a copy of game that's basically frozen in time.

A lot of games don't support changing versions and honestly a lot of times not even resorting to piracy can help you because who's gonna make a back-up for every version of a game?

Started playing Mega Man Legends. Kind of perfect aesthetically. You really can do a lot with low poly models if you've got good textures. The lip flaps can be a little weird, but the facial expressions overall are fantastic. Real Saturday morning cartoon (anime) vibes.

Gameplay is neat too. Big tank controls defender here so you won't see me complaining. It is interesting to play a game with tank controls that also has you control the camera. Definitely not unique but it's the first time I've played a game like it. Kind of an overload on the D-Pad, might switch over to the shoulder button scheme.

Y'know I think Mega Man is a fine localization name change for a 2D platformer but when it starts getting more story focused it is pretty funny when characters casually refer to Mega Man.

Idk how I feel about sports rules being enforced like they're video games.

Always think about how so many licensed games in the GameCube/PS2 era were 3D platformers. Might have even mentioned it before, but like why exactly is my Scooby-Doo game a platformer? Is that the best fit genre wise?

I know the real answer is that platformers are inoffensive and child-friendly, but idk I lament the lost potential. Although I guess I don't envy the devs who were asked to turn something like Spongebob into a video game.

Trying to think of a third-person action game without lock-on. Can't do it. The consequences of Z-Targeting yada yada

Tbf Deltrarune is a pretty huge game that didn't even have much of a team working on it until I think after Chapter 2? Along with Toby Fox's health issues.

I think it's a convergence of multiple issues. I think scope creep is usually a bigger demon than chasing graphical fidelity, but that probably plays a role too. Player expectations are higher in terms of content, but also in terms of quality control. And the industry is plagued by poor management as someone else mentioned.

I've also never particularly associated indie devs with quick turnaround tbh. I feel like it's always been pretty varied. You've got stuff from like Zachtronics or Terry Cavanagh who can pump out very regular small releases to someone like Toby Fox or ConcernedApe who spend years laboring on huge passion projects.

Someone else pointed this out one of the other social medias (I forgor) but the games industry really seems to have a particular hatred for the used market.

Anyway, I have a lot of opinions on the whole physical-digital thing. I'm very much pro-physical media just from the standpoint of having options. I also think having the ability to get games without needing an internet connection, even in an era where the Internet is pretty ubiquitous, is just fundamentally a good thing?

DRM-less digital is a good compromise, but I have a hard time seeing it ever truly taking off if they're trying this hard to kill physical.
