drahkon

Fair warning: It's janky But once you get used to the controls, the "floatiness" of the vehicle and the grappling mechanic it is quite satisfying. The music in this game is hilarious. You go from... ...to... ...to...

Yeah, there's so much potential that's being wasted I'm playing Jet Moto right now and holy hell, it wasn't easy winning a championship Some of the tracks are very unforgiving. The rewind feature is a godsend Here's a drahkon pro-tip™: if a sign is telling you to slow down, you should slow down or you'll end up dead

True. I was lucky to get another year of PS+ Premium for a reasonable price, but if the Premium sub will continue being this lackluster in 2024 I'll definitely downgrade to Extra (which has been great value for me so far). Yup. I wonder if the rumours of them working on a better PS2 emulator (and even a PS3 one) are true, as well. I highly doubt it, though.

But that would probably result in even less games on the service. I doubt that many publishers would want to go through the trouble of adding trophies Eh, it's a shame with Grandia. If I ever want to play it again I might just emulate it on my Steam Deck for convenience

Can confirm, no trophies

Yeah, I think I'm gonna drop it too. Maybe taking a break from the Yakuza style games will help. Gonna get back to it next year (if it's still on PS+ then).

Phew, so that first chapter drags on and on and on... If this is how the detective part plays, I hope there won't be stuff like this in every chapter. It's painfully boring to play.

Awesome! I recently watched videos of Jet Moto and... This was a lie. I was thinking about Jet Moto 2 Still, can't wait to give the first one a go! Still now news since your post

Not looking at the spoilers but you guys are talking about boobs, right?

Ahhhh, it hasn't been long but it feels good to be back in Kamurocho Playing the PS5 version and it's gorgeous. Obviously a cross-gen game but the city is a lot more detailed! Runs like a charm, too! As usual: Won't give a damn about the trophies and just do as many side-activities as I want

Downloading this now! Aside from the fact that it takes place in the Yakuza universe I know almost nothing about it. Can't wait to dive in!

Nice! This game's been on my radar from the start but I'll wait for it to be 15€ or be added to PS+ Your post kinda makes me want to churn out the 22€ for a copy from Amazon.de right now, though

I see. Prices seem to be quite high for me, unless I go with a Japanese version from PlayAsia. Oh well, will wait for a digital sale then

There's a physical version of this?

Created a new Savefile on my Steam Deck for Slay the Spire. It's no secret that I love this game, and I've mentioned how awesome the Downfall expansion is. It always surprises me that I can get sucked into a run. This time I'm going to do runs with the "normal" characters for a while before going with the boss characters (they only work in their respective game mode, so any unlocks made with boss characters won't transfer over to the normal ones and vice-versa). The "normal" mode has been enhanced by a couple of new events and relics. The latter are really good. My fav: Always great when you can use a 2-cost card for one less Very interesting that my fastest victory almost crosses the "beat a run in under 20 minutes" mark for the achievement. Didn't even go for it. DAMN! Can't say it enough: for me, Slay the Spire is one of the best, maybe even the best game ever made. It certainly is on the #1 spot on my Top 10 list. I wish Downfall was available on Android

I heard that S.C.G. has one.

Ohhh, interesting. Can't wait

Done and Platinum get! 10/10. One question, as I'm not familiar with most of the Spider-Man characters:

That was surprising

Done all the side activities that were available to me. Not much left. Some districts only have one or two undiscovered activities in the map list. Guess I'll have to advance the story a bit. I assume I'm very close to the end, so the remaining side activities might actually be post-game stuff. There seems to be a lot of potential for DLC. A few characters have been introduced but their stories have left me hanging...

Definitely! I still have a few more to go. Looking forward to them Just hunted down all the remaining Hunter Drones. Caught myself swaying my head and occasionally my entire body when the flight sequences got intense This game is a blast!

Erm, excuse me? Can you not on a late Saturday morning?

The more I read about it the less I want to give it a go. Sounds like a game I would not enjoy.

Most of the upgrades are your standard "more HP", "more Mana", "more Aura slots" (Auras are passives you can equip) type stuff, but you can also unlock new skills that may appear during a run. Gonna be interesting to see whether the stats upgrades become necessary to advance. Got my first "win" with almost no upgrades. I assume there will eventually be difficulty modifiers that make permanent upgrades necessary.
