I really don’t like the look of the game and not just because of the over the top fantasy aesthetic, but it just looks like you’re beating up animals? And then they try to limp away while you razor spin flash hecto cancel them or whatever?
It seems distasteful. I don’t think I’d have the stomach to get past the presentation.

Same, but be careful. While it’s engaging, it’s pretty empty

If you already know some of the tricks to the knowledge puzzles then probably not long.
But if you got a good ways in (like past my spoiler) and it still didn’t charm you, it might just not be the game for you. At least not right now.
Don’t force it. Maybe one day you’ll get the urge and it’ll be right there waiting for you :)

Dwarf Fortress back in the day (I think it’s more user friendly now). I just couldn’t figure out how to do most things.
Then I just decided to like job it: watched some videos, took some notes – basically did my homework, then was able to build a base and last long enough to starve. And again. Then the next time ran out of booze. Then was doing great but eventually had too many dwarfs and starved again. Then goblins. Then a big monster. And it goes on like that and that’s the fun!

The voice acting (and writing) is some of the best in all of gaming

It’s such a vibe. I loved it. I don’t know how they made just walking fun

This is me and every Witcher game. I would probably just rather read the books from the sounds of it

I haven’t heard that take yet. Usually if you like the flying (I loved it) then that’s the biggest hurdle to clicking with the game.
I didn’t even know you could …
spoiler
leave the planet
so I was pretty wrapped from that part on. Then they just keeping revealing more and more mystery. Like it’s a game about lore and puzzles, and the puzzles are tests of how well you understand the lore. It was like catnip for me.

Yeah this reads more like a casual forum post that an actual article.
I know IGN bought RPS some time ago, though no idea if that has anything to do with it.

- Comment on Instagram is testing “unskippable” ads that you can’t scroll past 1 year ago:
It’s easy to pile on, but I know some people who still use Instagram, and the verbs that they must embody when using the service are consuming and sharing.
My guess is the 80/20 rule would apply here: a minority of the users are responsible for the majority of the content, while they rest actively or passively appreciate.
I’m just glad I don’t have the video bug, because that pretty much describes my role on the fedi - as an active consumer.
- Comment on What are you playing this week? May 27 2024 Edition 1 year ago:
Tunic. I feel it is overhyped to the point people will think there’s a huge Fez-like gameplay twist, but there’s not.
It’s just a really really good Zelda-like that uses an unreasonably charming illustrated manual to successfully spark the sense of wonder/discovery/mystery of playing games as a kid in the 90s.
And again I’ve really over sold it there. It’s not even nostalgic - it just gates knowledge in a fun/creative way
