Well shit, how long do I have until I start having ads beamed into my brain while I’m sleeping ala Futurama?

I mean… I had to use a guide to figure out how to access the DLC in Dark Souls 1 because it is rather convoluted compared to everything after it. So that I was prepared for. At least the biggest one (Ranni’s) is pretty easy to follow… Up to a certain point. Unless you rest at that one specific site of grace after picking up the mini Ranni doll, you may never know you can speak to the doll itself. It should have had the prompt appear at every site if you had the doll and not conversed with it.

I also was always disappointed with the MP. After the kickass MP of 2 and 3, ER pulled back on everything except the convenience. I do like the effigies so you don’t have to just literally stand around in a spot waiting to be summoned; but that is just about the ONLY thing I love about ER’s (vanilla) multiplayer.

It’s like a bell curve. First you don’t know but can still feel the unfairness. Then you manage to win and think “maybe it is fair, I just haven’t learned enough,” and then you learn more and go back to thinking “this shit is unfair AF.”

After 1300+ hours in Elden Ring, I have come to hate a lot of the enemy designs. So many things teleport or slide to you so you can’t maintain good spacing, have combos that never end or can be started up ad infinitum with no openings, have hitboxes that do not match the visuals of what’s going on, or have so many effects happening all the time you can’t even see what is going on.

I’ve began to wonder if ER stretched their imagination of what could make a difficult challenge because it often feels very unfair compared to all the prior games.

Cyberpunk never gave me issues, but Elden Ring has a ton of random things that cause the framerate to drop, especially in the DLC map.

I only get cadmium around Easter. I wish they sold those cadmium cream eggs all year 'round… 😔

Climb aboard. We’ll make a special trip, just for you.

“Can’t any of you see?! He’s not a martial artist! He’s a giant chicken!”

It hella looks like it could be a sequel or spiritual successor to Returnal. Is it set in the same universe?

Uniracers was an awesome racing game. I also loved how the manual had a blank page for notes, but it wasn’t blank, it was filled with a rant about how nobody uses the notes section of a manual 🤣

The only thing I am aware of being releaeed this year that I have any interest in at all is Duskbloods, and that’s going to be a Switch 2 exclusive. Which sucks because it’s MP focused so I’d need Nintendo Online. 😮‍💨

I just thought of Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game and I guess technically it has real people too. But they’re playing as fictional characters. You could still say that Jean Claude Van Dam is in it. lol

AKA “Case Closed,” here in the US.

Niether of those even have militaristic… Anything.

Def Jam New York is literally nothing but real world rappers.

The Kung-Fu Master Jackie Chan has Jackie Chan.

Samurai Showdown features a couple historical characters.

And if you wanna count them, every fight night, every UFC game, and Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! although, I figure you were asking about Street Fighter/MK/Tekken type games.

It doesn’t say how new. But Firebreak is the cited reason they hired this new guy. So hopefully that means they won’t go down that path.

Is this dude the reason Firebreak exists? Cuz if so, that doesn’t bode well.

Does that mean you go 2 out of 3 twice against both characters, or is it like Marvel vs Capcom where it’s still just 2 out of 3 once but against a team of 2?

Epic’s Garbage Store

It’s basically IRC, with 2 good features (voice, video) and a whole helluva lotta bullshit features that only exist to be monetized (Nitro, stickers, etc).
