    Jason Schreier did one of his what went wrong articles. https://archive.ph/5Xq7M (non-paywall link)
  3. Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer is tied in with the Hypnospace Outlaw universe. It's gone full-on pastiche of the era, like Hypnospace did. I don't have huge nostalgia for shooters like this, but I'll give it a go.
  4. wrong thread, please ignore me.
  5. I backed Double Fine Adventure, Pillars Of Eternity, Grim Dawn, Banner Saga, Hyper Light Drifter and Torment: Tides Of Numanera, which all turned out pretty good. There some failures, too (Godus).

  7. Pentiment (PC) Case Of The Golden Idol (PC) Hidden Through Time (PC) I looked at some pleasant 2D scenes and found some hiden items while listening to some podcasts. Not quite as humorous and felt less interactive than Hidden Folks, but an enjoyable diversion. There re a few theme DLCs that don't cost much, so maybe I'll go back some time.
  8. I might give it a try, but wish it was a regular action game and not based around synching up with the music.
  9. Pentiment (PC) While I enjoyed it quite a it when playing, it was one of those where I really had to be in the right mood to boot it up, especially during the first act.
  10. I just ticked over 70 hours playtime this week. I played quite regularly in early access, a few hours every couple of updates. I tailed off a bit as it reached version 1.0 and it became something of an occasional podcast game. I've gotten back into it in the last couple of weeks, working on the collection and unlocks. I beat the reaper who turns up at 30 minutes yesterday to unlock them as a playable character, unlocked the weird meatball-looking thing from the Gallo Tower, and unlocked a Secrets menu on the main screen. I bought the DLC, but haven't tried it yet.

  12. Lil Gator Game is really cute, reminds me a lot of A Short Hike.

    Random News II

    This looks pretty sweet
  15. I didn't get around to buying Monkey Island yet, so that's a result.

It's a silly entertaining story mode, the action is as you'd expect of a giant monster game, and the destruction is great fun.

It's fun and silly.
  18. I've never been able to progress far past medium in rhythm games like Guitar Hero/Rock Band. A few songs into the hard level you reach a tier where I just can't visually process the patterns coming at me.

Run around, fight stuff, collect things for people to get things to help you progress further etc. you know the drill. Fun and short enough not to outstay it's welcome (about 6 hours maybe?). Generally it kept you progressing at a decent pace, but might have benefited from some extra pointing in the right direction or just a reminder where I'm supposed to be heading next, because I wasn't particularly observant and missed what turned out to be the entrance to the area I needed to proceed with the story during one session. My one complaint would be there's too much backtracking. The different areas aren't large and there are a couple of shortcuts eventually, but a way to fast travel would have been appreciated.

I imagine it hits a bit differently now in 2022 than it did in 2018 when the game originally came out. Great art, good writing and voice acting.

  22. I played this on game pass, having tried the demo during one of those Steam events and liking it. Beacon Pines is a cutesy storybook adventure with darker undertones. The big conceit is you find "charms" through talking to characters, looking at things in the environment or overhearing other characters etc. At certain points in the story you're presented with the option of choosing from 2-3 of these charms to decide what action take in that situation. The story branches off according to the choice you make, you might die a grizzly death or head off on a completely different version of the story. You can go back to any of these branches and try the other options, sometimes you'll find another charm down one branch that lets you make a different choice in an earlier decision. The branching thing is more superficial in the end than how the game initially presents it to you, you end up exploring most of the decisions on the way to getting the ending anyway, but it's fun and engaging. It's about 5 hours or so in length, which is just right. It doesn't overstay it's welcome. The presentation and art style are top notch.
  23. I had a go on the demo this morning, then bought the full game.
