fwiw, revisiting botw shortly before tears held up well for me and also bounced off of tears early. Think they're much more fundamentally different games than the way most people talk about them.

Breath of the Wild

Did a thing with friends a while back of looking through your favorites on lboxd and see how long it takes to find a movie where none of the top 3 reviews are one-liners, it's insanely difficult to find. Site has gotten so much worse about that in recent years

Skin Deep did seem from the demo like it will finally be the Blendo game that actually has more expanded mechanics, really need to stop putting that off.

about focusing more on the weevil and autocase and having some more demanding puzzles at the end. I do think it's pretty unique theme-wise as well, haven't seen many other games that capture the vibes of heist movies in the way this does.

presentation of their games, and putting together overly complex solutions for what the game required was a ton of fun. I'd take slight issue with the "too rigid to feel open-ended" comment, because they were open enough for me to have fun experimenting, but I do agree with your suggestions

I loved this game and it's a bit disappointing how few people seem to get a similar experience out of it, while at the same time I totally get why. The puzzles really aren't that demanding and it is a pretty short game. I wanted to get the most out of it though due to loving the vibes and

Would be interested seeing some kind of writeup on how you did this, sounds cool

Really curious what this is even if it's a spoiler, could you dm the name?

If you've got anything android-based connected to your tv, SmartTube is a really good solution for this

This convinced me to try out the demo, picked up the full game today and can hardly put it down. Thanks for the recommendation!

The Pokemon Company doesn't realize the PR disaster they have on their hands by killing this thread

Obsidian *can* do a lot. But you can very much just use it like an improved notepad with checklists and markdown, and it's very good for that. It doesn't force any of the complex stuff on you, very lightweight by default.

You an assassin's creed multiplayer guy? (that one was actually kinda cool)

Think the combo of covid into llms everywhere has done massive damage to people's critical thinking skills

Same. Also just doing +1 and seeing how high I could get without turning it off. This might be a game for me

why are there always droves of people saying "no but this one is actually really good" like they've never seen a normal video game

@shaunvids.bsky.social hi, any chance of putting the Blue Prince streams up on your youtube vods channel? Been slowly making my way through those and they're getting old enough that twitch is starting to delete them.

Could be cool to see some Quick Looks for games getting major updates like this, particularly if it's a game that didn't get featured at launch (I checked and saw there was a GB stream of this though and will probably check that out)

I've had coworkers when I ask them a question about their code literally tell me they're turning around and asking the question to chatgpt, and then when I ask them about the validity of a chatgpt suggestion they send back to me acting confused that I would question it.

Clair Obscur

started it last night and thought that was hilarious and for a second thought it might be a bug, but was very pleasantly surprised I could run that fast too

The mod is called that because it *does* fix a lot of things that are pretty objective problems with the game, and just also happens to (have an option for) removing cutscene letterboxing.

Will the difficulty of this be accessible if I played some of but didn't finish the original, or is it expecting you to come in with knowledge from that?

You were a major part of creating a new era at GB when I didn't think that would be possible, truly embodied the site in the best way and always admired your work ethic. Will absolutely be following game mess and anything else you do next <>

Really nice surprise that this is coming out soon, liked the demo a while back

Add the Gary Bowser situation to the list. #1 reason I've been avoiding buying from them

I missed this? I know about MLB erasing stuff from their site but what did the dodgers do?

Rewatched it last year and it's crazy how extremely literally the finale spells out that "they were dead the whole time" is not what happened, but I guess people just stopped paying attention.
