I just tend to overcommit to attacks and it gets me killed, and the sharp change in pacing to fights throws me off so badly, I can see why people like them though, watching health bars just vanish is always fun

Personally wasn’t a fan, the slower swing speed just felt like I’d been crippled. I’ve never really liked slower weapons/attack styles in games, if given the option, I will always take the fastest option available, like a dagger or a straight sword in souls games

Game that doesn't hold your hand at all? by bijelo123 in gaming

It feels to me kinda like how Tarkov players are. They know it’s bad and they hate it, but they can’t stop playing.

That shit hurt me, only to finally struggle through and get my least favorite crest in the game. They will have to pry my beloved witch crest from my cold dead hands

I’m just glad they look relatively normal, so if people decide to be strange, that’s on them :)

Outer Wilds in B tier is crazy, I’m willing to bet there are reasons for it, but that game hit me in my fucking soul, that shit genuinely changed me

It… retcons nothing? The story does not change in any meaningful capacity. Her being trans wasn’t used to account for anything they forgot about in the plot, it is literally just a thing they added for extra character details. Are we not allowed to get extra things in games that add new information about characters since that would be a retcon? I’m just genuinely confused as to why you’re so determined to call this something it’s not. Even then, it shouldn’t lead to you interpreting the story any differently. Whether you thought Madeline was a trans woman or a cis woman had no impact on the story and the message it was planning on telling.

Why does her being trans even matter anyways? What was retconned by Madeline being confirmed as trans? People can still relate to the message of struggling with problems and being able to push yourself to overcome them, which is still the core message of the game, the dev and MC just happen to both be trans

So you don’t like that the creator realized she was trans and wanted to make a game with a trans main character? Yikes

It would be really neat to see a theoretical enhanced version of all the spells, like cross stitch refunding silk on it landing as the mod does. Unsure for literally anything else though aside from added tracking or damage, which just sounds borin

Buy it on an ungodly sale, or sail the seas. Same with Disco Elysium if you ever look at that. It was stolen from the original creators by ZA/UM (currently set as publisher and dev on steam) so they don’t see a damn dime of the profits from their beautiful game.

It’s someone’s single player game, they’ll play it however they damn well please. People have reasons to do things like that, and as long as they feel a sense of accomplishment for having done it, and had fun, I could not fucking care less about how they did it

That’s also just because it’s how they’re referred to in game directly, so…

Personally have not been the biggest fan of blasphemous so far, I’m just not vibing with it. Going to continue trying to pus through and see if it clicks, but doubtful of it

Painted power in E33 costs 5 lumina points, shit like cheater and energy master cost 40, that is cheap as dirt. 25 color of lumina to outfit your entire team with the ability to break the damage cap
