    That's pretty much the whole game. I enjoyed it but its certainly not for everyone.

    I did get more drawn in so I did invest financially. I was thinking more of buying hundred heroes for PS5, so is it confirmed what will pass on from rising? I'm guessing it'll be something along the lines of how built new heaven-spelt-backwards gets?

    What battle system does it use, turn based?

    Hopefully you and others here leap at the chance to play the first two when that remastered collection releases :peace: though their silence on the re-release is a bit deafening 

    OR FACE THE WRATH OF BEING ADDED TO MY IGNORE LIST 

    (I'm kidding)

    (maybe)

    Murayama never would've done it because of his good relations with Konami after leaving, but the thought of it saying "108+" instead of just "100+" gives me a good chuckle :laughing:

    Possibru, I may not mind another RPG to plow through.

    Did you give the game trial a go? It's light on the metroidvania and heavy on the fetch quests. Overall, it's decent enough if you know what you're getting into so the game trial is a great option.

    I did a couple of hours on it yesterday and fucks sake is it fetch questy. I'm not even sure I'd fork out the £4 for this on offer.


  3. I don't even remember heading about Hundred Heroes, but I did like the look of the Rising trailer, which appears more Metroidvania than Hundred Heroes which looks more RPG-y. I am intrigued about the stuff passing over to the other game, but then I'm worried about how much that'll cost, even with Rising being a bargain.

    I finished Demon Slayer, well, up until the point released on Netflix. I thought there were more seasons than that - i'm left wanting more!

    There was something so compelling about it, i'm not sure what it was.

    Maybe they have more on the Crunchyroll app, you may have a few ads to slog through though.

    What's the hurry, MURRAY? I didn't expect Origins to be on the docket this soon. Looks like I'll be playing catch-up. Don't know what the deal is with the battle system in it but I'd expect it to be refined in some way after the first. Glad to hear there's been a few battles inside the first 30 mins.

    Refined my anus, it lets you know who is going next, and you can discard from your hand mid battle, but the moment where you can actually select cards remains a mystery.

    The missus didn't bother buying Peach Showtime, and I completed Jedi Fallen Order, so I decided to fire it up 😎


  6. I started Baten Kaitos Origins yesterday. About 30ish mins in and had a few battles and I'm the battle system is weird... There hasn't been any tutorial on it and the help menu is bollocks. There doesn't seem to be a highlighted specific window to pick cards, so I'm not sure if I'm picking attacks to attack or whatever. I picked a leather vest for defence during an enemy attack, then used it during my attack.


  7. I got the demo for The Pedestrian and blasted through it. I'm not sure what drug the person who wrote this was on

    "Enjoy this textless journey, where all ideas are shared in icons and your powers of observation will be put to the test. You play by rearranging and reconnecting public signs in order to explore and advance through each engaging environment."

    There certainly is no text, but there isn't really any journey either. It's a simple puzzler (from what was on offer) where you connect entry points between sections, which was quite linear and little variety for experimentation. The "environments" are engaging in the sense that they are graphically very nice to look at compares to the black and white stuff you have to focus on for the puzzling, but have zero impact on the game. Going between "levels" requires you to hold whichever direction you were running to keep the game going, otherwise you're stuck looking at a nice pipe, you can even make the quasi cut scene go in reverse and run back the way you came, but there's no need to and something that would just flow better if you didn't have to hold the stick and it did it via cut scene.

    It was an ok experience. A couple of levels had me thinking, but not an interest to invest. So I was out 

     


  8. Finished playing Fallen Order last night. Story was good but I had to take it down to easy mode because the combat is an absolute mess. Blocking/parrying seems to work only when it wants to, which is rarely never, as opposed to your opponent who seems to have a guard meter going all the time, and this is when they're gangbanging you with attacks with multiple opponents. That aside the metroidvania-esque exploration I quite enjoyed, although some fast travel points in the worlds.

    When it gets a bit cheaper I'll delve into Jedi Survivor

    Started watching Death and Other Details, halfway through at the moment. It's a bit like Only Murders in The Building, this time on a boat. With the link between the 2 main characters it'll be interesting to see if they could carry this onto later seasons.

    But you're guaranteed to see some tits at least once an episode, which is always a plus.

    Watched the final last night. The latter half of the season does ramp up the mystery at the detriment to the nipple count, but on the whole a recommended watch

  11. I can confirm that the new Ghoustbusters and its associated bustin' did make me feel good. If you liked Afterlife you should enjoy this. 

    Yet they seem to have deleted the scene where someone bursts onto the scene and beats the shit out of Patton Oswald, which seems to get cut out of everything he's in.

    Spoiler

    They seem to have confused this with destiny

    Yeah, easy pass for me. Developers have yet to get the most out on the standard model never mind an upgraded version. 

    I generally don't bother with such mid generation upgrades anyway. I got a PS4 Pro due to my normal one eventually sounding like a jet engine and I never upgraded my Switch to OLED either.

    Same here, the only exception is going for the 3DS XL. But I wouldn't bother shelling out for the home console  "pro" versions. The Switch is on the TV anyways, I've not had the need to pay for extra screen quality etc.
