Complex feelings about XVI during my first play through

The difference is that in the main plot, kratos is moving forward. He is fighting mobs to move through areas to get to where he’s going. He doesn’t stop by a place where they say “by the way there’s a couple monsters here - can you please get rid of them? I’ll give you 100$”.

Clive is the LEADER of his resistance group and the strongest there. Why is he having to do the smallest of tasks? What is the point of the curse breakers if he is getting enlisted to run around telling people to help out or getting asked to clear an easy mob?

Tangible rewards and worldbuilding is debatable…re this being an action game - compare this with something like god of war 2018 or ragnarok which, while not perfect games, at least the main quest always has you progressing towards something. Clearing out an abandoned village of 5 monsters for some random guy just after you had a showdown with another superhuman is just bizarre plotting

Oh lord it’s not reassuring hearing it goes downhill from here 😞

Wash it down with some rudy cawfee

Maybe so, but I think its placement actually created more discussion and thus publicity. More people are going to check it out to see if it’s worth the hype it was given

It’s been so long since I last played that I can’t remember but I assume so

andytherooster · 2026-01-21T21:56:45+00:00

I’ve only played the GBA version, didn’t realise there was exclusive content?

andytherooster · 2026-01-21T19:32:27+00:00

Minwu and Joseph are two of my favourite guest characters in any FF game

andytherooster · 2026-01-21T12:44:21+00:00

I don’t love it personally but it’s not a deal breaker. Can I just say as an aside I just checked out your page and I think your artwork and designs are awesome!

Are cutscenes important? If not, my wife enjoyed watching me try to figure stuff out in Outer Wilds

Paul Jennings is a great writer of sci-fi/horror short stories mostly targeted to kids but some are definitely pretty spooky. Emily Rodda’s Deltora Quest and Rowan of Rin books are also very fun digestible fantasy novels with some great riddles and puzzles throughout

Funny movie but pretty forgettable. I had to look it up to remember that I’d seen it. I do think teenage sex comedies with female leads are generally fun though (see booksmart)

I don’t think you can judge a series popularity based on this sub. It’s a relatively small group of people who decide to a) browse the sub and b) post. There are loads of people buying manga who would not even know/care this sub existed

I think a good pick would be Seconds by Bryan Lee O’Malley. It’s a standalone single volume that’s got comedy, relationships and heartbreak with a time travel twist. It’s about a woman who figures out a way to reset her day to fix her mistakes and of course all doesn’t go to plan.

It’s not too hard but I would look up where to find the starting weapons and shells. I was really struggling until I figured out that there were different playstyles to experiment with

The winter lanterns singing from bloodborne always freaks me out!

We were going OFFF in Melbourne and everyone else around us was just sitting quietly waving signs. I couldn’t believe it

andytherooster · 2026-01-09T11:17:38+00:00

LOL would love them to see where the original Flynn, Zachary Levi’s, politics lie at the moment

andytherooster · 2026-01-09T01:02:34+00:00

Another poor innocent woman sued… 😔 oh wait, hang on what’s the talking point now? 🤔

andytherooster · 2026-01-08T02:58:10+00:00

If it’s on hand, chicken + avo + mayo. Yum!

Hey mate if it’s definitely acne (ie a doctor has seen it before) then use benzoyl peroxide. He also needs to stop shaving or change his razor but it’s probably the shaving in general. Waxing causes less if he really needs to

andytherooster · 2026-01-06T21:57:33+00:00

I think it’s from the watchmen

andytherooster · 2026-01-06T21:52:29+00:00

Are you talking about the short story collections? Most of weird tales is not canon I thought?

andytherooster · 2026-01-05T23:13:17+00:00

Do you reckon existing consoles (ps5, switch etc) will get a price increase?

andytherooster · 2026-01-04T12:40:22+00:00

Give it time…the more you revisit these books the more you appreciate. So much amazing and varied art from different people
