@LegoKingo I much prefer playing on the higher difficulties where you're actively discouraged from using dozens of bullets like this. It feels antithetical to the strengths of the game

Functionally the same as watching a horror movie and saying "why don't they just leave at the first warning sign of danger." The relatively limited movement tech in these games is a feature! Also this clip is genuinely sickening to watch, super sweaty way to play lol

Might be a hot take but I need a Resident Evil game in which the characters actually knows how to run like this 😭

@ashronaut15 I'm liking it much more than RE8 personally. It feels like it's capturing almost everything I love about the series as a whole, and the segmented story is a big part of that. It also lets them go more extreme on the horror sequences since you get periodic breaks from the tension.

@SpaceCowboy207 I'm very intrigued by its concept of segmenting survival horror and action through two very different protagonists with interwoven stories instead of hybridizing it into a streamlined 'action horror' experience like 8, which I liked too but didn't find it as thoroughly compelling

@LinguistReborn Not exactly, and this guy is also presented as a miserable out-of-touch old man who thinks he's the only truly moral person left in the world. He's right about a few things, and is very moving in a sad way, but people often post quotes from him like epigrams for some reason

is all the dialogue in this game this annoying and on-the-nose?

This show is largely disinterested in Tolkien’s themes, how he built his worlds, how he wrote his characters and his dialogue. Most of the characters could have been from any generic Fantasy show on Prime Video, the lore is largely ignored, the names are generic fantasy names.

We’re getting shit instead of a a good director tackling something like Children of Hurin or the Fall of Gondolin

Meanwhile, Sam’s daughter, Elanor, has discovered a long-buried secret and is determined to uncover why the War of the Ring was very nearly lost before it even began."

Very cool co-op horror game from the Little Nightmares devs, though much more viscerally upsetting in its imagery than their earlier projects. The implementation of co-op worked really well too, I'd like to see them explore it more in the future.

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach
Mixed on this as a sequel, unfortunately. Lots of stuff I really loved, and I was still very drawn into the methodical nature of the gameplay and the meditative mindset it puts me in, but I found it much less impactful overall than the first game.
