Pretty weak May. I'll definitely be playing Multiverses again, but yeah. Nothing all that crazy this month.

I'm still working my way through rebirth and haven't even started Unicorn Overlord, Dragon's Dogma 2 or Stellar Blade so slow months continue to be appreciated

Animal Well looks cool, though I'm a bit worried the puzzles will be too intense for me.

Getting TTYD day 1
It's tempting to linger in this moment, while every possibility still exists. But unless collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than possibilities.

I'll get TTYD at some point in the future. I'm also interested in System Shock, maaaybe Endless Ocean, but none of them for this year.

Animal Well is going to be free so I won't count that.

TTYD was on the docket but it's 30 FPS so that's been cancelled.

So I guess nada.

Is System Shock Remake only just now getting to consoles? That's a bizarrely huge gap, it came out a full year ago!

Curious about Animal Well but Senua is the easy highlight in an otherwise pretty quiet month of catch-up for me.

down to pick up endless ocean/animal well/ttyd hd/lorelei on sale eventually

but the only ones I think I'll actually pick up any time soon are Touhou Gensou Wanderer Foresight, Shinjuku Soumei (assuming it doesn't get delayed again) and maybe Until Then on pc, and Touhou Mystia's Izakaya and Rainbow Cotton on switch (well the latter is a multiplat launch but i've only been getting cotton games on switch tbh)

yeah even for me after checking the whole month, there really isn't that much this month tbh. i guess there were like, maybe 10 other games on my wishlist i didn't mention but i don't see myself picking those up before a sale either. (i will say that the most noteworthy ones in that regard were Tempus Bound, Gift, Read Only Memories Neurodiver and Umbraclaw btw)

It's going to have some pretty massive upgrades. Kinda feels like the PC release was a beta (it's getting the updates too, of course).

Endless Ocean but I'm also interested in Animal Well and Lorelei. Pretty strong month, usually I don't vote for anything in these topics (mostly because indies don't usually make the poll).

Oh, right, I didn't recognise the name but Animal Well was in the Nindies showcase and looked really cool there. Lorelei had a very well made trailer too, but no idea how it'll play. Hopefully they're both future Game Pass games.

And I see Endless Ocean isn't reviewing well, oh well.

by the way jokes aside it's surprising how many releases (at least on my wishlist) are coming out specifically this week

just to recap there's these

https://vndb.org/v50674

of this list i'm still most likely to pick up rainbow cotton personally but i admittedly didn't know that plushie in the sky and rabbit & steel were this month too and honestly i hadn't even seen this trailer for Gift until now and i'm considerably more interested than i was before lol

as things stand i'm probably going to pick up all of them eventually besides pacman/corponation and maybe the vns

So Animal Well is coming to Switch, PS5, and PC. Not PS4. Will it run okay on Switch? I mean, it should if they properly optimized it... but no PS4 is worrying in that department.

Metacritic has way more reviews for some reason (and a 91 average).

got curious how the other games are doing so far

https://www.kakuchopurei.com/2024/05/gift-2024-review-kkp/
feels like a miracle i even found one review of this given how unsearchable it is. plus shoutout to bushiroad for doing almost the worst job possible marketing the game's release (i'm saying almost the worst because i know devil girl has literally zero to the point that the dev hasn't even used their media handles even once in the past year)

https://gameluster.com/plushie-from-the-sky-review-huggable-heartfelt-honestly-insane/
https://www.gaming.net/reviews/plushie-from-the-sky-review-pc/
nice

https://opencritic.com/game/16667/rainbow-cotton/reviews
unfortunate to hear that even after remaking the game explicitly to avoid the jank and bugs of the original, it's still a victim of jank and bugs

Those qualifications must be stupid if they're not allowing Eurogamer, PC Gamer, Destructoid, IGN, and NintendoLife. They don't allow Edge Magazine either, which is even more ridiculous. Maybe OpenCritic's going down the tubes nowadays?
