Yeah pass and playing it with the wife its perfect for that. Not much of a game really and probably overrated but cheap and original. Wonder when the inevitable pupper game comes out.

$30 for 8 hours is about as expensive of a game as it gets, if it was a full fledged game Iā€™d probably buy it.

The price point is too high. I like that the studio is producing a quality indie game experience but gamers are pretty demanding and $30 should get you more gameplay than that.

I kinda want to go back and replay the goose game.

Compared to movie tickets its fine imo. $20 probably more appropriate though.

If you sign up for a month of PS plus its 15 instead of 30

Multiversus is a ton of fun! The potential for different characters is exciting.

A20 Heart kill with Silent complete. 2 down 2 to go.

Ha, I always find myself comparing the price of games to movies for some reason. Full game price is like 4 movies, but a good one lasts for like 50+ movie lengths. Then you do something idiotic like order Far Cry 6 when youā€™re high, but it was only $15.

So playing some more Tekken 7 for some reason. When you go into a game it gives you an option to start on the left or right side, I prefer right because uh I can giant swing easier that way.

Iā€™ve never been forced to start on the left side i.e. my opponent has also picked right and Iā€™ve lost the coin toss presumably. Yesterday I finally figured out why.

when i played sf4 semi competitively i ended up picking characters that liked to do crossover mixup attacks (whatever its called where you jump over your opponents head while attacking to make them guess which way to block) because I was so so bad at being on the right side attacking left. my first 100 hours of playing left was the only side i played.

Into the Breach apparently just had a massive update, time to dive back in

anyone playing street fighter 5 champion omegawtfbbq whatever edition?

I played SF IV pretty religiously. loved it, even at the end of its run when a few characters were ridiculously OP (cough, cammy, cough).

Then V came out and it was pretty meh at first. theyā€™ve had 6 years though, clearly, and I got it again last night after someone told me to give it another try - bit salty that my main, dictator, lost his psycho crusher spin move but the game feels and plays great. I miss ultimates still, but the V trigger system is far more flexible and gives a lot more
options so itā€™s obviously better.

canā€™t decide who I wanna main. dhalsim looks like he got a complete overhaul, wanted to be good with him since I was a kid but heā€™s either complete ass or just sort of OK in every SF iteration. I won a few games with ryu last night somehow after I realized that super smashā€™s entire ryu moveset is 100% identical, which means I accidentally know how to play ryu.

Iā€™m waiting for 6 and I need a stick so playing tekken on a pad poorly

Iā€™ve always used controller, never felt limited by it. in tekken i might though.

you might be waiting a while, they typically only do major street fighter versions about once a decade

I would feel really bad about what Iā€™m doing to 12 year olds in the silver ladder with dhalsim cheese but then I remember how many names these same kids always call me

Whenever I play Fortnite or Fall Guys (or any multiplayer online game, for that matter), I always assumed Iā€™m getting pwned by middle school kids.

Sometimes I like to play Impostors, the Among Us mode in Fortnite, as a change of pace. There are two version: voice chat and no voice chat. I always play no voice chat because Iā€™m afraid of shit like this:

hereā€™s a review of a game that came out in 2016 LOL

man SF V is sick. Iā€™m really kicking myself for sleeping so long on this game. season 1 and 2 was so bad I just completely forgot about it for half a decade and now it looks like a really solid title. the elimination of the ultra bar from SF IV means matchups are less about finding a big hit confirm into a massive damage combo and more about spacing and smart footsies, which iā€™m good at and like. you have to actually make decisions around your EX meter now, whereas previously youā€™d just sort of use it as you got it.

they got really creative with a few character mechanics and i absolutely love the v skills even though thereā€™s not quite as much customization as it would initially appear, most chars only have 1 good v skill.

I got a 10 win streak on my old main, blanka and climbing faster than I thought I would. they nerfed the shit out of him but heā€™s still interesting and annoying as always. itā€™s pretty hilarious popping his v trigger and chaining specials with electric spam, Iā€™m not sure how you counter it but people seem to just die. one rant tho - EX ball doesnt go through projectiles anymore? LOL. that was his only approach on some zoning characters that spam fireball like ryu/ken. who the fuck at capcom was like ā€œyou know what, blanka is too powerful, nerf his best punish.ā€ they also nerfed the shit out of his slide too, that used to hit full screen and now itā€™s barely a quarter.

was watching some old pros I used to like, daigo obv, and it looks like heā€™s playingā€¦ guile??? wtf is going on in 2022 yo.

overall at least at low levels the thing Iā€™m very impressed with is every character in the roster (except dan lol) feels strong, and the difference between S tier and B tier seems far less than in previous titles.

also @grue i looked it up, lots of pros use gamepad, a few have won evo with them , no excuses

I have 2000+ hours of rocket league and thereā€™s a lot of squeaky kids on there so yea. theyā€™re usually pretty nice until they turn 12-13 and then the hormones kick in and they become monsters.

shit like that video used to happen to me every other stream lol. ā€œwhat are you like 20?ā€

ā€œ33ā€

ā€œFUCKING BOOMERā€

I got voice banned in rocket league for a year because one kid was talking shit really bad and said I was old enough to be his dad, and I was drunk but I remember saying something like ā€œthats right, so shut up before i beat you like yours doesā€ and he got completely quiet. not my best moment. he said some vicious and racist shit, in my defense. because of my screen name i get the n word thrown at me a lot.

fuck you fucking turtle akuma just chilling right out of range of all my crap and spamming sweep on me the whole game. i got pissed and went goblin mode

Diamond tourney winner! LFG.
