Small heads-up (also to raocow if he has it in Canada): Amazon Games will be offering Yoku's Island Express free starting May 3 for those with Amazon Prime

Any idea what the other Royal Suggestions were that Spyro beat?

Thought I'd bring this up since raocow was noting it in last night's vid: The President was voiced by Maddie Blaustein. Might explain some of the peculiarities of The President's voice (though I wouldn't say it was the only reason, voice direction is weird in this game). (She also voiced a few other...

Incompetency is his defining trait. We've seen his rule from shovel knight and spector knight's campaign. He doesn't do squat.He doesnt know a thing about actually ruling and thinks his servants will do everything. the pre-fight lines in specter of torment is him being called out on doing literally...

And it really is kind of a sudden jump to me. From wanting to be king because of an inflated ego to being a tyrant just because? I'm curious: How do you think a person of King Knight's disposition—emotionally stunted, vapid, inflated ego, detached from reality—would rule as a monarch? Discount any ...

A good explanation was a lot harder to find than I thought. https://www.romhacking.net/games/819/ Allow me to go over some of what you said. This is the best I could find and it's not great because of how "embellishing" the writer is. Basically the new sound engine that was written for th...

Well, I dunno if this'll get as much traction here as elsewhere, but still. Apologies for the length. I would like to counter your thoughts on the narrative, raocow. I think one thing Yacht Club Games did was deliver an incredible narrative with King of Cards, in the sense that it really defined Kin...

If you're not the ingot, you're part of the precipitate (...or something)

and yes it's a known problem that FF4, 5 and 6 on GBA are pretty shoddily put together. Do you have any proof of this beyond your own anecdotal experience? I haven't had a problem, I watch multiple streamers during Fiesta season who play the game unpatched and didn't notice any issues. Like this is...

sonic 06

was bad. they should do that, but make it good

That's never going to happen as long as you keep claiming you never played a video game in your life

Cyril wrote: ↑1 year ago adventure 2 is the best sonic game so idk what y'all are talking about

literally they could just make an adventure 3 that brings back the same three playstyles as adventure 2 with minor polish in the controls and level design and they'd be printing money for years

That was Sonic 2006.

Agreed. I feel like this is my problem with Modern Sonic in general. Everybody says they want a whole game with 3D Modern Sonic sections, but that would be the blandest game ever from a gameplay standpoint. Because of his speed, literally the only thing you can do with 3D Modern Sonic is have super...

I got to Chapter 2 of Bully, with the Town of Bullworth opening up. Not sure how I feel about this setting yet. There's something about it that makes me think this is a second draft of the things they were working on GTA San Andreas in terms of the things you can do in an open world setting. Having ...

Okay

The GBA version could be okay if it was actually stable. My saves got corrupted so many times :(

I've never had a problem with saves. You sure you didn't download a bad ROM or a ROM from a bad source?

(And has anyone else dealt with this?)

Which makes it extra frustrating that there's no good definitive version :( I dunno. I think the GBA version fits the role. The translation's pretty good, there's enough QOL updates to make the game not tedious, and it plays well. The only real issues are the music (which, honestly, is super subjec...

Absolutely god awful, like it's theorized that it's just the Pebble Beach Golf Links engine, but. It kind of works in gameplay? Wait what Like, do you have some proof of this? Not because I doubt you but because that on its own is batshit absurd Haven't been playing much, despite my birthday weeken...

Playing Bully again. I want to clear all the classes before I really continue the story (I think I'm at the end of Chapter 1, I just finished Halloween). However, I've hit a massive brick wall with Biology 5 and Music 5, which happen to be on the same day. The latter I think I can pull off, but I'm ...

I mean, they did pull away from Archie due to some IP issues, but yeah

I remember the Sonic Twitter making fun of Nintendo's cease-and-desist-fans strategy a while back, they don't care that much

I've heard good things about Free Enterprise and seen a couple good streams. I know Career Day (the FFV rando) has similar concepts in play, but it's made more complex by having to hunt down Crystal Shards (so you can acquire jobs) and the tablets so you can have a team to work with. Still, Free Ent...

here's the link for those curious, anyway

I like how no rougelike elements and no Souls shenanigans are considered features.

But does it have "Touhou-unlike normal projectiles and movement, no bullet hell nonsense"

(also thanks)

Firefox won't allow Steam embeds :(

Same :(

Sorry for the double post, just woke up, but Spectre Knight does outright call him "a child in the guise of a monarch", which does suggest he's supposed to be pretty young. "Talented but inexperienced teenager with big-fish-in-a-small-pond syndrome" seems to be the vibe they're g...

Tenlade wrote: ↑1 year ago Honestly, with how they write King Knight, I start to wonder if he's literally a child or teenager.

I mean, the games kind of suggest he's a manchild. So you're not entirely wrong.
