Oh wow, there's a title I hadn't thought about in years. I got a hold of the leisure suit Larry games around the time I was 14, and probably the prime audience for that game's sense of humor. I'm sure a certain amount of my sex education came from that game too. That said, I don't really think I'm interested in anything else with that character.

And they say kids today are given bad sex ed through porn!

I played Omno and Last Stop.

Also started The Ramp, which makes a really great first impression.

I've been playing Stonefly, from the developers of Creature in the Well.

It's a top down action platformer where you pilot a bug shaped mech.  It's visually unique with some impressive vista's and you have a lot of offensive abilities to match certain types of bug enemies, adding a layer of tactics to the gameplay, but neither the story or the gameplay loop are strong enough to carry the game through.  There's a lot of repetition as you head out into the same overworld to repeat the same actions to gather enough minerals to advance the story.  Quite a shame really.

This new game is really fun so fun. Quite a few laugh out moments and a great art style. I never played the original but this game reminds of Sam and Max Hit the road in many ways. The characters and art are all on point. Switch up did a video review which is why I got it, on sale of course.

Thank you Leisure Suit Larry. I just had to Google what a queef was as a character asked for anything queef related to trade for a guitar

NOUN
an audible release of air from the vagina, typically during or after sex

The game was fairly PG for a long time then I walk into the comical sex shop that are suddenly selling a rack of diseased used dildos. I take said dildo which smells of cheese. Use it with an XL condom to catch a rat. At this point the game breaks out an Eternal Darkness style screen takeover that says: AT THIS POINT WE THOUROUGHLY RECOMMEND ASKING FOR A REFUND ON THIS GAME. And then gives you multiple choices: Ask for a refund? Yes, no, maybe? I was laughing so hard I clicked no, but I'm left wondering how far they'd take the joke if I said yes. πŸ˜‚

Gameplay consists of walking and selecting dialogue options which don't really affect much, but the narrative and setting is pretty enjoyable; the sense of humour is probably the highlight, and the characters end up being pretty endearing, or the butt of a very, very dry joke if they don't.

Nintendo's hosting a new indie world direct tomorrow.

I'm not getting my hopes up for anything.

I’ll probably check it out at least but not getting my hopes up either.

What I am excited for is that it’s rumoured that an Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is nearing completion and could be realeased early next year. Apparently it was planned for a late 2021 release but things like Covid kind of slowed it down a bit.

That reminds me, I still need to get back to Xenoblade Chronicles 2.  If it wasn't such a long game I'd be better starting over, but that isn't going to happen.

Same^. But mostly it's because of the way the game looks, unplayable portable. Skanky on my old 720p. Good on the 1080p,which I no longer have. Now Skanky on a 4ktv. But great with mclassic on a 4ktv. But it's been so long I barely understood how to upgrade poppy, or the battle system. But mostly the map, although patched is the ultimate game killer for me. You should at least be able to see which direction you're facing on a map.

Apparently there's an achievement if you choose YES. It's the "failed to get a refund" achievement πŸ˜‚

I would like to get the Torna expansion for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and play through that. Might even play through XC2 on New Game + mode as well. It is a pretty long game.

I hear all Bethesda switch games are 70% off for Quakecon. Might pick a few up. Psa the skyrim port is excellent both docked and handheld and its perfect for uninterrupted play. I sold mine for the money but may pick it up again at some point. Edit - only Wolfenstein 2 is 70% off. The rest are around 50% off. Metro 2033 is back to under 8.00

Guys you need to get in on Leisure Suit Larry Wet Dreams don't dry. I believe it's on sale right now for sub 8.00 USD. I've been playing since Saturday and I'm very impressed, it's high quality stuff. And has a lot of content. There's a love for the material too and attention to detail. For instance remember when you probably used your desktop for shady stuff and had a work window open to switch to if someone interrupted? Here if you hold down the shoulder button a fake worksheet appears. I just did an underground section using dialogue to navigate. You have apps on your phone. You use Tinder to match and meet your liked ladies and men. Which unlocks their locations. The art is really great too. It's not some digi only cheapo game it's a game that had I known how good it was I'd have bought physical. Also there's a sequel.

Watching the indie world presentation now. Jet set radio wtf?? Called Bomb Rush cyberfunk it looks exactly like Jet set radio.
Toeum Black and white game, hard sell like an isometric photographer game? If this were in colour I'd be interested.
Some retro looking game Loop hero, Dungeon pixel art. You create paths by placing cards.
I'll watch the rest later
