Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

I like so much Plaything that I think I will record small reviews of newish chapters.

And here Im watching about Koreans history just to try to bring something else in my review.

Exactly my experience, thanks for making me feel more sane about this lol.

RE9 felt very disappointing to me as a fan since OG RE2, both in story and gameplay. It was such a huge downgrade from RE4R (and RE2R). It lacked.. "identity", you know, those character moments, interesting encounters, intriguing villains, all that stuff.. let alone a new IP "face" (Grace is such a meh character). It felt "soulless", and I was amused when I learned from a friend that it was originally an open-world multiplayer project, so mystery partially resolved I guess, lol.

RE9 was an ok game on its own, but it failed to deliver the RE experience I was looking for. At least now I know I won't care much about RE10 from an IP attatchement standpoint. I only care about the Code Veronica remake now.

Will check out those videos

Never heard of it. I did hear of a spaceship one in 1962(? 61?) that took a university computer center to play.

In both cases we can state that for all practical purposes they weren't available.

I still have an Atari and I'm too old to be a boomer.

The early game with the hospital was pretty good but the later parts with the city aren't that great. I think they went a bit too much over board with the nostalgia bait and around the second half they lost me with the story.

They also went a bit over the top kind of like the movies did, for instance riding a motorcycle up a skyscraper.

I don't know, once you open the can of worms with multi verses, time travel or clones in story telling it often goes downhill fast. At that point everything tends to lose meaning cause nothing has real consequences.

All of the most recent RE entries have been heavily frontloaded. Once you get past the first act the story just falls apart, then you beat the game and there is almost no extra content. No reason to keep playing. I don't like what Capcom has been doing of late so I never even considered this game.

Whatever. I'm gunna go read yaoi doujins of Chris x Leon.

Picked up Crimson Desert. A co-worker has been geeking out over this, I guess he likes the developer's previous games. It looks cool and will be my latest excuse to not finish Nyzul to get my Burtgang.
Crimson Desert on Steam

Should I make them a variety or just stick to one look. Decisions, decisions...

The popular game journos dont like it
So it must be a banger

Shame about the 25th hour inclusion of FPS-Killer DRM

I will never understand why game companies do this.

Not like there has been video game piracy since the invention of video games or anything.

I get it, because it does slow down the process. Doom Dark Ages got cracked last week, took about 10 months (May 2025 release). Sales in that time (all prices in CAD, I'm Canadian):
Start of Aug - 67.49 25%
End of Sep - 60.29 33%
Black Friday - 44.99 50%
Winter sale - 44.99 50%
Start of Feb - 29.99 67%
Spring Sale - 29.99 67% (just started)

The problem is that companies dont remove the FPS-Killer after a while. Once you've hit the point you're doing 67% off, just patch the ***out. Though its possible that in May, on the 1 yr anniversary, they'll officially patch it out.

Then people can do the before and after comparisons to show how much it kills FPS, as has been demonstrated multiple times already.

Looks like I'll be grinding out Nyzul this weekend... I refunded this thing. I played for 57mins, 20mins of that was trying to screw with graphic settings to get it to look right. All of the presets were junk. Ended up on high, no RTX, HDR, no motion blur, and no depth of field... only then could I actually tell what was happening. This is with a 3090. Couldn't do better than 60fps, even on low I only managed 90fps. Ultra everything was like 30-40fps.

The controls are what did it. They are absolutely horrendous. If this is supposed to be some kind of open world breath of the wild type of game, they couldn't have made worse controls.

This could be one of those "oh it opens up after like 15 hours" kind of games, but those kind of reviews are from copium addicts.

Doing those Burt trials might have you buying it again

You might wish to search the history of Monopoly and reframe that statement.

Everybody. Sad news. Our protector, Chuck Norris, has left our plane of existence.

Might want to stock up on food and water, the only reason WW3 hasn't started yet has decided to relocate.

What a legend.

And yesterday I watched the fight between him and Bruce Lee.

Wrong
The Grim Reaper came for Chuck, but Chuck beat the Grim Reaper. Chuck Norris is the new Grim Reaper.

Nynja surrendered to AI.

You should never say: "from this water I will never drink"

Also, never spit in your plate.

I'm not a video game dev (or anything) making money from this AI content.
I'm ***posting on an internet forum.
