    > The First Berserker Khazan. Another soulslike game, but in a style of nioh. Hmm, I wonder why I stopped playing? It's a great game and all. I heard it's hard as shit. People killing it in Niohs and Lies of P getting slaughtered in that one. Ugh, count me out.

    Tiny, insignificant details in games that really bother you

    After spending about 80 minutes with Bloodstained Ritual of the Night I was already able to see into the future into all the stuff that turns me off of so many metroidvanias- bullshit checkpoint spots and klugy jump mechanics. This one has a sort of 2.5 or 3d art style that looks nice sometimes...

    Discuss and Rate the Last Thing You Watched (non-movies)

    I'm continuing primarily because each episode is so short- the perfect work break or thing to watch with a snack. And I'll take any promise of fleshing out Anakin's character to make up for the travesty of the prequels. And I'm a little curious about Ahsoka because while she's not interesting...

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars: the movie, some of season 1, some of the 2003 Cartoon Network show Since 7 old-school TV length seasons of a cartoon show is way too daunting for me but I have some interest in more Star Wars, I found a reddit post where someone listed the best episodes to watch and...

    Your Personal Greatest Games of All Times And/Or Personal Greatest in Specific Genre(s)

    I'm still workshopping a name for this specific category of games that are like my favorite games now but it's basically: Games Where You Can Chill But Also Still Have To Pay Attention, Are Pretty Easy But Also Have Challenges And You Can Finish It Without Looking Up the Answers On the Internet

    What are you currently playing?

    Dungeons of Hinterberg (again) After discovering this gem via GamePass, I bought it on Steam at a discount so I can do a completionist run. Basically this just meant looking up on youtube where the treasure chest with a collectible was in each dungeon. Then doing a bunch of grinding/farming for...

    Why Derivative Game Design Doesn't Matter

    "pretty much" is not the same as actually. I hope Duskbloods is good and I'm glad it'll be there for Nintendo players but I'm also glad it doesn't interfere with the lore, experience, and legacy of Bloodborne. Some video game sequels are great because they take the core ideas of the original...

    Why Derivative Game Design Doesn't Matter

    I don't want a Sekiro sequel for the same reason I don't want a Bloodborne sequel,

    Onimusha: Way of the Sword (2026) - The Return of PS2 Samurai Action

    I'm definitely interested in this one. I never played anything in the series but the trailers look cool so it's a wait and see with the review cycle and sale some day.

    Dude... just... f'n... YES. To all this. Agree, 100%, right on.

    Discuss and Rate the Last Film You Watched

    Prey: Killer of Killers Animated film set in the Predator world. I have become just really bitter and jaded about IP fatigue. You know: remakes, sequels, reboots, etc. And with Predator, I only liked the original. It's such a great premise that never felt like it need "world building" to me...

    Star Wars- The Phantom Menace Star Wars- Attack of the Clones Andor has revived an interest/nostalgia in Star Wars so I want to watch the Clone Wars animated series, but first I figured I'd hate re-watch the first two prequel films that lead into the actual clone wars. I say hate-watch because...

    SGF 2025 + Other gaming showcases thread

    > At Fate's End. Okay, a visually stunning 2d action game. cool. From the studio what made Spiritfarer! I loved that game to itty bitty pieces. And now they're doing a sick looking action game, which, like Spiritfarer, merges the gameplay and serious themes better than really any game I've...

    Why Derivative Game Design Doesn't Matter

    As you know I've played a ton of Souls and they are infamously hard but do not feel like roguelites because once you kill a boss it stays dead. There is real immediate progress. Going "back" to areas is open world stuff, not going through levels. Sifu and roguelites are repeatedly going through...
