“Well, it’s important to always remember one’s roots,” I say to myself as I spend time reading through the ACF Encyclopedia Dramatica pages. Also I read what I could find of the academic article. I was on ACF for pretty much its whole drama-filled existence, but I mostly kept to the gfx...

Yeah, Friede is kind of a slog. Not a bad fight, but I feel like it’d have been better if they separated out the second phase into its own fight or something rather than giving her three health bars and making it be Lady Maria again>Ornstein and Smough again>Lady Maria again again. I also have...

Yeah, BB is fantastic and the DLC is even better - every DLC boss fight is a banger, the added weapons are all really cool, and it expands the lore nicely. I also found Laurence to be the hardest, along with the final DLC boss. Ludwig is my absolute favorite boss in all of the games I’ve played...

That scene was better before, IMO. Jack consciously looking at his phone to put the music on was funnier. Reviews should dock points accordingly. :monster: Didn’t play the other demos cause I only have a PS4, still kind of curious about the gameplay (and …whatever this game is trying to do...

I've been taking it slow and exploring as much as I can in the first area (and I played the network test, so I'm probably being exceptionally slow in making progress lol). This is the first time playing a game in the series on release, not years afterwards, so I'm trying to go in as blind as...

Not sure quite what to make of the 4 minute gameplay trailer. Like the traversal looks like it could be fun, but the world shown looked kind of empty/bland, so it kind of seemed just like... running around in an open world but fast? And the magic looks visually really cool but the mobs being...

Dang, very impressive. Isn't pretty much everything a one shot on Very Hard?

This is hilarious. I mean, sorry for your predicament, but I'm picturing Fierce Deity Link bonking his head on door frames and it's funny.

I ordered a physical copy of SMTV but it got lost in the mail apparently :(. It was through Amazon so at least getting a refund was easy, guess I'll try again. :monster: I'm really looking forward to playing it, it's been a long time since I've played SMT and I think it's been a really long...

Yeah, Automata's difficulty modes aren't very well balanced, unfortunately. Easy is sort of the plays itself mode, normal is more reasonable after the prologue. As the others said, you can always switch difficulties, so there's no shame in switching if something's annoying you. I wish there...

Mob Psycho 100 season 3 is happening! The first two were GREAT, really looking forward to this.

Yeah, I'm kind of getting this vibe from the teaser. Kind of reminds me of the Scott Pilgrim movie, too. What it does with the transitions and stuff is interesting and looks good, but I'm still not sure how I feel about it overall. Not that the anime was always super serious, but this seems...

Happy TLS anniversary, Fangu! I know I don't post all that much, but I'm genuinely grateful that this forum is still around. It feels like the internet has changed a lot since this place started and it's so hard to find communities like this nowadays.

I honestly go back and forth about the game's level of self-awareness. (Granted, I've really only seen the two trailers and the infamous "bullshit" scene.) Like, in the "bullshit" scene, I do think the game seems to be riffing on the usual emotional speeches that are often in JRPGs. However...

Honestly, the gameplay looks pretty fun (wish I could try out the demo but I don’t have a PS5), visuals look better than before, too (though the art direction is still all over the place). Holy shit at the scene with the phone. So the game really is some sort of self-aware parody? Either way...
