Re: When Is Summer Game Fest 2025?

LikelySatan

I don't know if any of this stuff can touch seventh gen e3 (good and bad and dumb), but I am so happy that at least Giant Bomb is back and independent cause that is going to make all this a lot more fun.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give DOOM: The Dark Ages?

LikelySatan

@Fishnpeas I've played Doom at least weekly since the original release and it's pretty damned Doom. Just the culmination of the He-Man arc Hugo Martin decided to bring the series in, for whatever reason, lol. It's fun. I think the thing is that whatever happens with the series, it will always be my favorite. The original game will be around forever, and it's constantly changing w mods.

I am going with an 8 for the time being. I just got an app to run it on my Retroid, and it feels like playing on a Vita (my favorite handheld design), so that score might go up.

I don't think I have ever said here, but I have nerve damage from a combat injury, and sitting up in a chair for any longer than an hour gets pretty grueling. I've always preferred handhelds, so a light one I can play these big games on is so rad.

Re: Analytics Firms Predict Pitiful Full-Price Sales for DOOM: The Dark Ages on PS5

I like it well enough so far, but am still not comfortable w the close-up combat range. Waiting for it to click, but Eternal didn't gel completely until I beat the first Slayer Gate. It's funny, because Eternal used to get so sweaty that I wouldn't blink. Tears would be running down my face, and I would stand up during hairier moments, usually at the end of big skirmishes. This one doesn't do that. I'm not "standing and fighting." Fail.

Re: Blades of Fire (PS5) - Steely Action with Blunt Art and Storytelling

LikelySatan

@tselliot yep, it's a really special release and I want to give it the breathing room it deserves. I'd rather get into the systems in the game than have to remind myself each time I pick up the controller what RPG I am playing. I'm 43. It will happen to you too, lol.
I'm playing FFT and Star Ocean SSR ATM too, so you most likely get my meaning.
I'm looking forward to CO. But for now it's all about Doooooooooom
