I dunno. I have a hard time properly rating villains because I end up generally disliking them, but at the same time, I'm supposed to, so how much credit should I give them for "succeeding" at making me dislike them? And how can I differentiate between that and them just being bad characters?

lol

but it is so satisfying to come back and effortlessly one-shot them all

Fair enough though!

Though if you're willing to play around with it a bit more, I'll also add in that while I called it an Action game with RPG elements you uh... don't want to treat it like say, Tales of. Getting hit hurts so you often can't just run up and attack something and just tank the counterattacks. The dodge button is your friend and it's usually a good idea to keep distance, bait the enemy into starting its attack animation by creeping into its melee range, and then dodging by either manually sidestepping/backing up with the stick, or using the dodge button (Circle IIRC). Which, speaking of, operates differently depending on what you're doing. If you're stationary it executes a backstep, if you press it with a direction you'll roll, but frustratingly if you're dashing and press it you instead try to leap which will get you hit 9 times out of 10 so be wary of that.

Lock-on is R3 (press the right stick) it's toggle and can help keep you focused/aim your attacks right. Though at times it's easier to not lock on depending on what you're doing.

tl;dr: A usually safe strat on most non-boss enemies is to get its attention, stay out of its range until ready, then get close/let them get close just enough to start an attack animation, then either backup/dodge to make them whiff and wail on them while they recover. To be extra safe try to get to their side/behind first.

So I decided to play What Remains of Edith Finch. It's a short game you can finish in a couple hours or so, but it was a really cool experience with outstanding presentation. I kinda wish they'd given me a little more, but I guess that's part of the mystery!

But yeah, if you enjoy video games for the unique cinematic experiences they can offer, this game is good.

<3 Bloodborne. Think I'll move on to Dark Souls 2 in my slightly-broken-up-by-other-games-for-a-break playthrough of Soulsborne that Bloodborne inspired in me. soon. ish.

That said, I always feared that it just wasn't going to be a game for Leon. It's just, since it was there because of PS+ I had to shoot my shot y'know? maybe one day there will be a triumphant return

Yup! It was worth the attempt for sure. I can't quite see Leon ever truly taking to that game (or the Soulsborne genre in general) BUT it would be wicked cool to be mistaken.

I might give it another shot sometime soon. I just had a really bad headache and I wasn't in the mood to play a difficult game last night because I get easily frustrated when I die a lot in games.

also this new post box is weird bro

I can create bullet points and numbered lists like it's nothing

  1. Final Fantasy VIII
  2. Final Fantasy X
  3. Metal Gear Solid 3
I can also upload images

AA5 beated!

Can't say I expected that kind of ending! I appreciate they tried something new with that kind of character as the big bad, but it also didn't give me many feelings beyond shock.

Athena and Simon were cool with me. I guess I can see people getting annoyed with Athena's inconvenient passing out at the worst times but I really don't mind the convolution when it leads to interesting debates and puzzles in trial.

Like even if this was my least favorite game so far it still wouldn't be too far under 2 and 4. I wish they could recapture some of the greatness of the von Karma and Godot arcs though. They really had it all and turned the AA concept into something better than just good. At this rate I guess I don't see that happening again.

Will probably get around to the DLC case within the next few weeks or months, and then I guess there's just 1 more game to go!

5-6 is really good! It's a lot of people's favorite case in the game. I thought 5-5 was excellent myself, even if it couldn't quite reach the heights of the OT's epic cases.

And I love Blackquill. Top ten character in the series for me. I thought he had a little bit of everything.

I think it was just a little too obvious he was a good guy from the start. But his story was probably the best in the game.

I think the "dark age of the law" bit is hard to get behind though. Especially when it seemed to have an entirely different reason for existing in AA4. But even more than that...wasn't Edgeworth known for using fabricated evidence in the first game? Wasn't von Karma a prosecutor that went to jail? Heck even the police chief took a fall for corruption but people weren't talking about mistrusting the system then!

The thing that annoys me most about the new posting box is that your text is indented from the left side for some reason. Like, why? What's the point? I'm mostly happy with all the other changes.

What Remains of Edith Finch is very good! It's my favorite of the walking simulators I've played. Has great variety and compelling stories.

Ori has some similarities to Dust, yeah. I prefer Ori, though.

I completed the prologue of Hitman! Or at least I think I did! The navigation menu of this game is so unclear. It seems like there's more I can do at the ICA facility, but I guess they're just optional missions...? Not sure if I should do them or not.

Anyway, the gameplay is fun and not too tough. I died several times, but I'm bad at stealth games, so I half expect it! It feels like a cross between MGS and Assassin's Creed. Also, it's lots of fun to sabotage a jet so that the dude kills himself via ejector seat.

Personally I'd try a couple and move on when you feel like it. Doing assassinations different ways is a big part of the game's draw.

Yeah, I redid the first prologue mission a couple times to see the different ways I could do it. Trying to rack up those achievements for doing all the optional aspects of the mission is what ends up getting me killed most of the time...! Thankfully, they don't reset after you die, at least!
