It's my GOTY 2021! Loved it and yes I agree with your spoiler. I just never tire of that Metroidvania design, once you unlock a new ability and you suddenly think back to all the places you couldn't get to before, and it was done well in this game :)
Amazing soundtrack too.
Played an episode a day of True Colors and really liked it. Still do feel like the $60 price tag was really high for the game though, so I'm glad I waited (heard it was pretty buggy on launch too but it seemed fine now). Character wise this was easily the best LiS for me, might have an IRL crush on Alex now tbh.
Yes really enjoyable soundtrack - I was watching an actual play so I did turn the music down but could still hear most of it in the background. I wish there was a map or some way to tell what I have/have not collected, specifically because I have a really bad memory but for the most part actually navigating and playing through the levels was fine. I also just found out there is a
true ending so I might go back and try and wrap it all up before I uninstall it.
Not sure when it happens but you should see locks on the routes/rooms where the decisions happen. There's two color coordinated ones and you basically can warp directly into the convo needed, you never have to redo any of the rooms.
In general I believe you are right and that it "remembers" the initial route, but reversing and going the other directions is incredibly quick. 999 originally never had this so it made the game much, much simpler.

Really enjoyed this song, just as a nice kinda catchy tune at the breezy beginning of the game. Wasn't until I looked at the comments that I noticed the air raid sirens integrated into the music. And maybe percussion of the bombs dropping.. Damn lol...
I was like, wait there's another ending? And I looked it up, and I realized that I actually did it already haha. Maybe not the most rewarding end to doing the extra work, but it was a nice feeling to put a bow on my experience. Loved the game - though, I'm glad I played it before Tunic. I think that was the right order to appreciate both games fully.
I did most of it but this last bit is going to kill me especially with no checklist. I might just give up at this point lmao
edit: ok took me another hour but I did it. definitely not worth the ending lmao but still a fun game in the end

the xbox port of pillars of eternity 2 is extremely rough or is just me? for whatever reason until i restarted the game i couldnt switch characters, so i couldnt level them up and it wouldnt let me hold the interact button to basically do any stuff lol
If you beat the game without the true ending there's a cave where it'll tell you what you missed.
I randomly downloaded NBA Live 19 lol because I am in playoff basketball mode. Its crazy how good the game looks. Like its not even an X/S enhanced game so I guess its the xbox one version but damn does it look better than next gen 2K. Always was a Live fan just because I find it a lot more fun and less technical than 2K. Also, 2K is guttertrash with microtransactions and Live 19 for the most part cuts that out completely. Really wish EA would bring this franchise back.
I "finished" playing forager. Got all the possible gear, chests, NPCs and whatnot. The only things that remain are achievements that would only take my time and bring no enjoyment other than bragging rights.
To the next game. I'll think I'll go with Tunic, and maybe I'll try Unpacking and Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion at the same time, as they both should take 3 hours each to finish.

Ohhhh. You reminded me that I want to play that. Thanks. It is now my "Next 5 to play" playlist.
Im playing dragon age origins lol it's pretty fuckin FANTATSIC I never played it back in the day
It really is amazing. It's a game that really deserves a remake imo, as great as it is some of those graphics/textures have not aged well at all
Yeah. It has a weird vibe to it. The physics weight feels very unforgiving. And the framers chug too.
That's really strange. You don't have any other software running like ds4 windows
I finished Mighty Goose last night and I really loved that game. The post-ending bonus level is also amazing. If you like Metal Slug-style games you should definitely check it out. I thought the difficulty was perfect, so that means many of you will find it too easy, but don't let that dissuade you. It's a great game.
I don't think there's a way to 'fix' the Dualshock prompt on GotG. It didn't even seem like a bug, just looked like the devs forgot to replace the assets.
Id be surprised if that's the case as I'm pretty sure to pass certification you have to use proper button prompts even on Pc
I had the same issue with the button prompts and it randomly switched back to Xbox a few hours in. Very odd (and makes QTEs and some contextual prompts very annoying!)
Norco is great if you're into a lot of reading and flowery prose. It's got a great aesthetic and vibe to it. It's mainly reading though, almost a VN with a few adventure game type puzzles / interactions thrown in to break it up a bit.
Thanks to you, both. I actually just wound up seeing the locks appear after completing the "Safe" ending. I haven't gone through Door 7 at all previously, so I just picked Door 4 and then skipped immediately to Door 7 and will see what happens. I should get a new ending, regardless, with this path.
I had read about the DS version not having a flow chart and that must have been brutal; I definitely would have stopped immediately after one ending if I was playing that version, haha. I typically dislike re-experiencing anything in any medium, so good to know about not having to redo any of the rooms.
It looks like This War of Mine: Final Cut is coming to Game Pass in May
RESEARCH and DESTROY (by Spike Chunsoft) got added and so did 7 Days to Die
RESEARCH and DESTROY looks like an Valkyria Chronicles-like game with AI: The Somnium Files, Zero Escape, Steins; Gate, Danganonpa DLC added

Should note that the DLC looks to just be costumes with no effect on gameplay. $9.99 on the game pass store for all 4
RESEARCH and DESTROY is not the best game in the world, and first impressions are that it is very simple, but it seems well made, and probably will find an audience
There does not seem to be any voice work in the game at all, which makes it seem a bit dead, and the music loops are VERY short, but the gameplay can be fun
I only did the tutorial and level 1 of the single player campaign but I will probably play more
It seems like a cult-3DS game that fell out of time

Tried Gorogoa because of the weekly challenges... Ended up playing the whole thing with my girlfriend. Mind-blown.
Oh I just checked out the trailer, looks indeed like my type of game. Thx.
yeah agree with you there - there's some fun quirks, the weapons feel pretty good on controller and the overworld stuff looks interesting. I like that there doesn't seem to be the valkyria chronicles time/turn limit other than just spawning more enemies.
Just announced as one of next month's PS+ games so you have to assume so.
Quick note with Death's Door
If you also want to play Tunic, or have played one or the other recently, space them out a little as they're kind of similar in combat style but really different in feel, and I feel like playing both close to each other would do both games a disservice
That said, both games are fantastic so enjoy!
Good to know. I started Tunic right now and I was planning on playing Death's Door after it maybe. So I'll play some games in between them.
Yeah, depending on what you expect / prefer, Tunic has a lot better world and exploration due to its secrets and puzzle nature, but Death's Door has a more straightforward map (even if many people get lost and ask for a map) and much better combat overall. Tunic for the secrets and puzzles, Death's Door for the combat and quicker progress.
They are not even that similar in the end, but I can see the benefit of spacing them out too.
I've completed Gorogoa. Original and beautiful puzzle game. It's extremely short and that's why you should play it. Just 1 hour of art and inspired/original puzzle.
And now I am playing Lost in Random. I adore the settings

i guess we know most, if not all, of the line-up of the first half of the month
how the fuck do you call the lady Marie instead of Mary?
Larry, Gary, Mary it was right there
I think it has to do with the pronounciation. Marie sounds more like Larry and Gary.
what? no. this is how Marie sounds
Like "maree"
Mary (as in, there's something about mary, mary had a little lamb etc) is the one that sounds like Larry or Gary
