I'm playing Control. I dunno what it's like on console but on PC it allows you to launch the standard version or a version with DX12 enabled. I chose DX12 even if it is a bit janky still and HOLY SHIT. I can say 100% without any doubt that this is the first truly next-gen game to release. I have never seen graphics anywhere close to this in anything before but it's a damn resource hog as such. I cant turn on the ray tracing but to think the full experience is better than what I'm already seeing is unreal.

It also helps that it is a really awesome and totally creepy af game. It's as if you are playing something like Stranger Things/Fringe/X-Files. Also very similar to the game Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice in terms of some of the narrative devices. It's not an outright scary game....but it's seriously unnerving at points. It's the kind of horror that wants to mess with your head and leave you feeling like you're always being watched.

Just completed Fire Embkem Three Houses to do all 4 routes took 230+ hours. Worth it. Easily my game of the year so far.

In another bout of nostalgic goodies, I'm in the throes of River City Girls. With both that and Bloodstained a bit ago, methinks this is a good year for 9 year-old me.

Picked up a Switch Lite in turquoise flavor today - first time in nearly 18 years since I owned a Nintendo system at launch.

Also got a copy of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate - amazing and addictive game.

Bloodstained Ritual Of The Night.

Amazing game, its pretty much a castlevania clone in the vein of the DS games, but it's incredibly fun. I love those kinds of games, too bad Konami practically gave up on making games and the 3D castlevanias have all sucked.

Went through God of War, thought it was pretty good. The story is better than the gameplay though to me personally, when it camr to the end game challenges a lot of the enemies just felt unfair with their bullshit (The burrowing dog things that never surface when you're on a time limit, the perma dodging witches, the Valkyries, that fucking Dark Elf Pricklord). I like the new Kratos, he still a dick but at least hes not completely unlikeable now.

Put a few hours in to Dragon Quest XI, just got my 3rd and 4th party members. Feels very old school, the menus are so basic and unpolished that it's as if it's a SNES game. I heard murmers about it being too easy so I added the Draconic Quest to make the enemies harder and it's pretty tough so far, wiped a few times before I got a full party and then again at the latest boss. Combat is pretty fun though and the monster designs are great, i'm liking it. The beginning really reminds me of Ni No Kuni 2 (Evil King, escaping through the sewers, overtly Japanese town) but I get the feeling this is the better game. I guess they're both just going hard on the tropes.

Borderlands 3. Needs some performance issues ironed out (supposedly coming in a patch next week) but I am having a good time. I dunno if it's me or I'm just rusty but this game seems much more difficult than the previous entries which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Playing Ion Maiden (It was renamed Ion Fury because of some dumb controversy), it's an extremely fun old school shooter that runs on the build engine (Same as Duke 3d, Shadow Warrior, Blood). So refreshing to play this. Modern FPS games can take their graphics and "storylines" and shove them. I'd be content with FPS games just using the build engine for the rest of time.



So good...back from a time when life was good!

Welp, after years of faithful service, my second 1st gen DS has bit the dust (my first one was one of the launch ones; my second was a refurb). No more Advance Wars Dual Strike for me for awhile.

If they would release them on the Switch (yes, I'm aware of Wargroove), I'd happily buy them all again and rock an updated system. Instead, I will have to purchase a third DS from some shady backalley eBay merchant and hope it is up to par, after other obligations are fulfilled.

So good...back from a time when life was good!

Heard all about DQ11 being too easy, but I ran into a very solid wall in hard mode.

A lot of bosses wiped me without any prep but they were manageable. Slayer of the Sands? That was rough but keep him dazzled and he will fall. Arachtagon? Had to level grind and set up Sylv's multi heal but he's a fair fight. Tentacular? Another grind and mastering all the gear I could do survive long enough to dazzle again.

But then...

SPOILER: show
FUCK DORA IN GREY.

Absolutely unfair. Her moveset 100% chance Beguilement, a high chance ability seal, 3 moves per turn, high agility, non elemental magic AoE (un-mitigatable), high damage single target physical, HP drain and also 100% critical physical attack. She can pep up. You need to stack all of your accessories to resist Beguile (which got me around 40% resist each because mastering them at the forge is not easy) and hope she doesn't get any procs off on the first turn. Also you need to hope she doesn't kill any of your team on the first turn and since she usually acts before you there's a good chance you've lost before you even get to make a move. Took me like ten tries, eventually managed it with Gublet (err… Hero? Luminary?) / Jade / Serena all pepped up going in, do the defence / attack buff Ult and then use Serena to use status immunity on everyone, starting with herself then Sylv, because he needs to acceleratle & multi heal pretty much constantly and until you get your 4th person buffed there's a good chance she will lock their abilities and mess up your run. Then hope a decelerate lands on her before she peps up and has the chance to do 6 actions in a row. Even after that it's still tough because you need to be dealing damage to prevent her HP drain healing her all the way back up, while managing Sylv and Serena's MP because if those run out you're fucked. So much RNG bullshit. That has been the only time so far I've considered turning hard mode off.



I've fought bosses since and beat them on the first attempt and I've been assured nothing comes close to being that hard again. So that's good. I'm heading for an important location at 50hrs and level 33, I think there's probably some way to go yet.

Also, Jade best girl.

Lol don't forget Cyberpunk is coming right after those. Doom Eternal now as well. There's about a 6 week period there where it's looking like a second (and way better imo) holiday season for games.

Finally went through Undertale and I have to get this out of the way: Undertale is incredibly overrated.

I mean I liked it, it's pretty great and a unique game and has an almost perfect cast (Looking at you Alphys) but as a video game or even a piece of media the story isn't strong enough and it's surprisingly short. It's a good little game, I'd even say very good if Sans wasn't so ridiculously OP that I can barely last six turns against him and have given up on Genocide, but that's all it is. Kinda disappointed I didn't like it more.

SPOILER: show
Accidentally killing Toriel on my first run, because I didnt realise you should never use Attack, was pretty upsetting though. Felt bad about that. Probably worse than I did about killing everyone on the Genocide run. Being a dick to Papyrus was not cool either.


Also Sans is overrated. Wouldn't even break my top 5 Undertale characters. I'm not sorry.

Night in the Woods is still a piece of shit.
