I know it’s silly but I’d legit consider getting a print subscription again.


It’s kinda weird. I loved the first 30 hours of it and liked the idea of the job system they had. But something hit me and I just dropped it. I kept going back to the same classes and that just ruined the fun. I may go back and try it again at some point.

Doesn’t help that the story isn’t as good as P5 or P4.

It’s still fun. I’d just wait for a sale if you’re on the fence.




I’m still rocking a 6800. I should see what the improvement is. The VRAM would be nice for genai stuff


The only time graphics bothered me is with Violet where everything would slow to a crawl and windmills got super choppy. Otherwise I don’t necessarily care that much.

I wish more time was spent getting rid of cutscenes and story. Pikemon is never going to have anything interesting to say because it needs to appeal to everyone on earth. But they keep shoving more cutscenes that say nothing into the game. Just let me wander and catch pokemon dammit.







Works well! No crashes or anything.

I think I got more fps on windows but I haven’t really spent much time tweaking and I don’t have actual measurements so it could just be anecdotal.

EDIT: I use Proton + Steam to play.


My friends and I used to do weekly apex nights.

Then they blocked linux. My desktop runs fedora and my other friend ran a steam deck. Ended up moving to Helldivers and DRG.

We played Apex for years. Oh well.



The good news is those games aren’t as popular as they used to be. It’s not 2010s anymore.


Triangle Strategy was a lot of fun.

Square Enix’s 2.5D games are my favorite output from them in a long while


Probably just means they didn’t test it on anything else.


I think the problem is reddit tracked all sales to a T and ruined it for everyone else.


It’s nice for trying out games that you’re not sure about.

I dropped it when they increased the prices but for a bit it wasn’t bad for the price.

It’s not a replacement for owning games. Just an extra benefit


I thought the title was just made to take advantage of trending searches on Google.

This looks like a cash grab article.




That sucks.

Apex was the game I played with my friends to keep in touch long distance. Guess I gotta find something new now. Sure as he’ll ain’t installing Win11 for it.

I guess it’s been a long time coming. The dev decisions and priorities the last few years have really made it feel like I’m the last person they want playing their game.


I have a feeling they’re looking for more revenue streams and need to generate more user engagement


As long as the base game justifies the price I don’t mind as much. I thi the practice is worse when you don’t get a full story and it feels like “pay 40 dollars to see the end!”

I usually catch these on sale anyway. I’m the worst type of customer for Owlcat for sure.


I’ve been wanting to check out Rogue Trader now that that’s out. I loved Kingmaker and Wotr from Owlcat (with the caveat that I always disable the crusade and kingmaking modes…)


The extra 20 minutes telling you to buy shit and like and subscribe is necessary I hear.


Nah you gotta play it IMO.

Just go and do it now and don’t read anything else.


I’m surprised they’re still doing multiple seasons.

I thought it’d pull a Concord by now.


Me personally I’d rather have the loading screen. It’s being honest about what’s happening rather than trying to hide it.

I don’t find constantly moving through tight corridors immersive at all.


Started playing LoZ Oracle of Seasons. I never played the oracle games and so far they’re great. Never realized how much I like the GB Zelda games.

Afterwards I think I’m gonna revisit the Golden Sun games.


Xbox series X Elite controllers. I’ll never go back. They have a good weight and feel.

Sorta on topic, what do people use for N64 emulation? I can’t find a 6 button controller that I like.


It’s explained in a battle but it’s easy to miss. I completely missed it my first playthrough


I think Avowed is the only thing I’m kinda excited for and that’s more of a “This sounds kinda promising” than “Oh shit I can’t wait!”




Yeah like the default is 1 dollar for 20 or something pathetic.

And there’s a mandatory humble bundle tip that used to not be there.


I agree about Xenoblade 2. I played for 10-20 hours and had to drop it. At some point I would find a horde of enemies and go “dear God not ANOTHER fight” and just start running.


I didn’t realize they took away the apex coin option. That sucks.

I used to top up to unlock the next pass and bridge the gap when I play casually with friends.

Not sure I’m gonna be paying anymore towards this.


Case of the golden idol is such a stellar game.

I figured out the twist pretty quickly but it’s excellent how they build it up.
