Which one of you jizz cabbage enthusiasts didn't like Little King Story? Was it you Robio? I've been talking to someone about the community and your name came up as someone who did not like the game. I reviewed your top 100 list and it was not to be seen. We need to get to the bottom of this.
Yeah it was me. I was not a fan of it. Admittedly, I would give the game a second chance if a version of it was available today. But if I didn't like it again, I would probably spend the next decade talking about what a shit show it is.
That would be entertaining. It was such a fun and charming game.
Isn't Little King's Story a Pikmin clone? Or was there more to it?
I don't know what a "jiz cabbage" is, nor will I be Googling it to find out either, lol.
Little King's Story includes more traditional RPG-style combat and kingdom-building mechanics. It also mixes real-time strategy, life simulation, and RPG elements, whereas Pikmin is more focused on real-time strategy and puzzle-solving.
So this weekend I subscribed to PlayStation plus give myself a chance to test out some games I was looking at. So far I haven't been overly impressed.
I first checked out Returnal. I can't decide the game is either genius or just fucking terrible. Either way, I'm not real good at it, but at the same time I can't tell whether or not that is by design or not. But after 4 hours, I haven't really progressed the story much. So I've decided to write it off. Really happy I tested it, because I have had that in my shopping cart for a while, and it just doesn't seem like it's for me.
I also tried out Dredge. It's supposed to be a Lovecraftian fishing game. The idea is neat, and it's got a lot of elements that should be drawing me in, but it's just not happening. I think it's a little too light on direction. Part of me feels bad because I really haven't given it a fair shake yet, but at the same time I need more out of a game than the town mayor saying, "nobody knows how you got here, but why didn't you go out and catch some fish? Oh and don't go out at night."
Oh, and one last gripe. While I was going through the catalog on PlayStation Plus, I saw the Last of Us PS5 remake. I wasn't really dying to play the game again at this point in time, but the idea of playing Factions was extremely appealing.
Unfortunately, I quickly learned that they did not remake Factions along with the main game. And that still pisses me off. Next to splatoon, I think factions was my favorite online gaming of the past 10 or 15 years. I'd say it's hard to believe Sony fumbled that, but then there was the whole Concord fiasco, and Factions looks like a minor bump in the road compared to that.

Tried the demo, fishing on a grid seems tedious.

Wouldn’t bother me to be honest. Would find it pretty hilarious though playing an Indiana Jones game as an old Indy.
Not saying developers have to age their characters just that I don’t mind if they do.
I wouldn't mind it if there was a vast selection of grandpa complaints I could blurt out whenever I wanted at the press of a button.

That's why I bought all of their classic costumes immediately after purchase. I don't buy DLC, but it was worth it on SF6.
Depends on the game but I prefer classic characters to mostly be timeless.
How much did that cost? I've been seeing clips of Sagat coming to SF6.
I assume paid for dlc? I had the expectation that all the old faves would just be there day 1.
It would be neat to see a game, say Uncharted, where aging affects the character. Maybe its more difficult to climb or they have less stamina. So the gamer may have to get creative in going from point A to point B.

You can unlock all of the classic costumes for free by playing the open world RPG mode; I didn't like that mode at all, so I bought the costumes. I don't remember how much I paid.
This weekend I played a lot of Mario Kart World and a lot of Tears of the Kingdom. Just like every weekend since I got the Switch 2. But now my wife has rediscovered Animal Crossing so I don't always get to use the Switch when I have free time.

I enjoyed LKS myself though I never finished it for some reason.
Little King's Story is, by an order of magnitude, superior to the baby's first RTS that is Pikmin.
And I say that as a mental baby who is a big fan of Pikmin.
most of my news posts were done via my phone too
I post exclusively from my phone. I haven't logged in on a desktop or laptop in years.
I'm a bit put off SF6 when I see Ryu, Ken, M.Bison and Sagat in their older form.
Capcom seem to think making characters older means hairy, unshaven, slovenly dressed, beat up and scared and generally looking like hobos.
It feels like an insult to one of my fondest memories, playing SF2 in arcades in the 90s.
I’m fine with ageing video game characters myself. Like the Street Fighter 6 older designs of the legacy characters.
If Indiana Jones was 80 in the last game, would that be fine or is the one in his prime better?I think videogames are one medium where you can keep characters eternally young.
And fuck it man. I'm getting older and more broken down. They should too.
