Omori is the best game that none of you seem to be playing.

Haven't kickstarted anything in awhile, but this game has my attention. FPS metroidvania

I recently bought the Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light. I don't have any pictures because its currently at my parents house. Like 20 minutes after I opened it I remembered that the game came out on DS awhile back and there was no reason for me to open it. I could have just kept it closed and kept it as a collectors item... Oh well.

As far as fast food goes, I usually eat my fries first. Fries have a very short time frame of when they are good, meanwhile I can let the burger or whatever sit for a little bit and still tastes just as good. I cannot stand turkey anymore. I advocate for a small ham on Thanksgiving for this reason.

Yeah I'm looking forward to that big time. I'll probably replay God of War and FFVII remake if it ever gets a patch.

I've watched the speedruns for it, I'm not sure the theme(?) of the game vibes with me at all, but its on my radar. I always hear good things about it.

I bought myself a Secret Labs chair. Didn't really want to get a new "gaming" chair, but several friends have them and love them. Specifically the new cloth variant they came out with instead of the usual p/leather.

PS5 should finally be arriving today. Can finally dig into Demon Souls and play Ghost of Tsushima. Well I could have played Ghost earlier, but didn't want to go to my parents to get my PS4.

I enjoyed Ori more than Axiom Verge. I haven't played Guacamelee though. $15 seems like a steal. I had no issues running Nier, but yeah the mod should fix anything that comes your way.

Watched Shroud play this for awhile, looks pretty good, got awhile before it releases though.

Enter Shikari - Nothing Is True & Everything Is Possible Notable Songs: Satellites, Dreamers Hotel, Crossing the Rubicon I really feel Enter Shikari hit their stride with this album. Granted there are some songs on this album that I will never even attempt to listen to again, but so many good, catchy songs that I found myself listening to on repeat throughout the year. Machine Gun Kelly - Tickets to My Downfall Notable Songs: Forget Me Too, Bloody Valentine, My Ex's Best Friend I was not digging this album at all when it first came out, but once I finally sat down and listened to it, took me straight back to Jr High. Back when stuff like Good Charlotte and Green Day was everywhere. I found myself enjoying the album more and more the more I listen to it. Bring Me the Horizon - Post Human: Survival Horror Notable Songs: Dear Diary, Kingslayer, Teardrops Half of this EP came out as singles well before the album was put together. Ludens was for Death Stranding, Obey and Parasite Eve came out months in advance of the album. While I wasn't huge on those songs Dear Diary, Kingslayer, and Teardrops were pretty solid songs. Kingslayer in particular was stuck in my head for a long time. Its so hard to not sing along with babymetal. Plus Mick Gordon produced parts of the album and you can definitely tell the influence. System96 - Memories If you need a solid synthwave album to listen to while cruising look no further. Notable Songs: Emerald, Unbound Singles List (because good songs shouldn't be ignored): Caleborate - Clicquot Shower System96 - Dream Project AER, WYS - After Sunset (technically on a compilation album)

I can't really pin anything down that would surprise me with the amount of time I put in. All of my high time games are for the most part expected, unless you count amnesia where I have some ridiculous time spent. I think it was from a friend not quitting the game and it stayed on for a few days. From memory though I spent a good chuck of time playing Battlefield 3 back in the day, which is surprising because I'm not huge on modern combat games. I also got all the achievements for Battlefield 1943, man I miss that game.

BK has worse fries than Carls Jr imo, especially if you get the waffle fries. Plus BK doesn't have fry sauce in Utah (a must have) at least around me.

Not sure I could name the absolute worst. I don't understand the hype for In n Out, has lines that are just not worth the wait because there is always 20 cars in line. I really don't like Wendy's burgers all that much, I don't know if its the bun, the burger, or what. Burger King is super mediocre, but I wouldn't list it among the worst I've had. There isn't a jack in the box in Utah so I can't comment on how bad it is. Unpopular opinion, but a double cheese and hot n spicy is like my go to meal when I'm trying to get something quick. I don't mind McDonalds at all.

Is it really that hard to timestamp long videos. It seems rare that youtubers do this and it makes viewing experience so much better

I loved Olive Garden as a teenager. I've grown to hate their food now though, even their breadsticks are just mediocre to me and that was the main attraction as a kid.

So far just spiritfarer and roboquest. Haven't touched spiritfarer, but if you enjoy gunfire reborn I highly recommend roboquest. Combat is way more fluid and faster paced.

Soon Xbox Game Pass comes to iOS in spring 2021 WWW.POLYGON.COM Coming to the Xbox app and browsers, too

I've started Hollow Knight for the 5th time due to a friend playing through it and wanting to talk with someone about it. Also picked up Pathless on EGS with the $10 coupon. Reminds me of Ico honestly. Camera and aiming takes adjusting to, but its got a solid soundtrack and a good atmosphere.

I guess this kind of correlates to the last thing said in here, but one of my buddies linked me a video/podcast with Max. I guess it’s not much of a theory anymore, but basically the game isn’t a remake at all, it’s a sequel. It’s Sephiroth trying to “remake” the games events in a way that favors him. Not a remake in a sense that they are remaking the original game. Thought it was interesting to think about it that way. Doesn’t really make me feel any better about the ending or the fact that we aren’t/won’t get a faithful remaster/remake of the original game. It does make the future for the series seem slightly better I guess?

Thats too bad. Halo 3 still doesn't run anywhere near OG despite being the best experience on MCC.

I assume I’m on the cusp of what I just asked for then lol.

I feel like this got blown out of proportion. I simply stated that its doing nothing special at this point and feels sub-par to many other FPS games on the market. I don't hate the game, I just am struggling with pushing myself to get to the good stuff. I, like Legend, have put down games only to come back and appreciate them a whole heck of a lot more after the fact. This might just be one of those games. I feel that more could be done to combat the early game lull in RPGs. Give the player a cool gun up front and have it taken away or not able to upgrade so I have to use other guns. Have a big plot development upfront, dangle a carrot in front of my face so that I want to chase it. Right now I feel like I have to find the carrot in the first place. I'll chug through another couple hours and if nothing sticks I probably will give it up.

good reply. Destiny’s core mechanics are better than 99% of any shooter outside of high competitive e-sports titles. Granted they don’t get super crazy mechanically or do anything special, but that foundation goes a long way. It’s a fair assessment, I’m just a frustrated player who isn’t having a good time yet. I get that RPGs take time to develop, but with nothing to make me want to play the game it’s hard to keep coming back.

Again it’s not bad, it’s just not special or standing out far enough from the crowd. What does the early game do to differentiate it from Borderlands, Fallout, Far Cry, Bioshock, Deus Ex, Stalker, Alpha Protocol, Prey, or even my gold standard of Destiny?
