I’ve been playing Soulstice, past the halfway point. Fun action game with a few weird choices.

Fixed camera gets too close in narrow hallways, which makes it different to see every enemy I’m fighting, some enemies are transparent, which makes it difficult to see what they’re doing sometimes, and startup animations for non-parryable attacks are a little difficult to spot.

I still have not unlocked all of my skills though, so I’ll be reserving judgement until I do that and play through NG+.

This is like Jared Leto giving Daniel Day-Lewis acting advice 😂

Go back in your hole, Tim.

This can’t be surprising if you’re part of the FGC in any way.

To elaborate for the uninitiated: a keyboard functions similarly to a leverless controller—a popular controller among fighting games players—minus XInput, which is not an issue if you mainly play online and won’t have to worry about plugging two controllers in the same PC.

Yes, I love campy games/movies! The Nixon impression in the trailer sold it for me 😂

Reminds me of The Deadly Tower of Monsters.

Damn, I just realized I kinda always subconsciously ignored this series for some reason. Added to my list, thanks.

Keyboard for fighting games and shmups, and controller for anything else.

I wish I wasn’t if true, but I already put all of my skill points in keyboard and controller, and I don’t have enough reasons to work on my mouse skills.

I was just looking at Remnant before posting this. Good to know it’s fun with a controller!

Interesting, I may consider picking one up, thanks.

I tried all 3, the aiming cursor is too small. I remember looking into the options, and I couldn’t find any way to make it larger. Maybe I missed the option or there’s a mod for this?

Thanks, I’ll add it to my list.

Damn… I gotta try and be diverse… as much as my narrow taste allows anyway:

1. The Wonderful 101: my choice for a PlatinumGames ambassador.
2. God Hand: beat’em up representation.
3. Ninja Gaiden 2: nonstop action and my favorite Team Ninja game.
4. Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R: my favorite fighting game.
5. Hellsinker: infinitely replayable shmup.

15 hours is my limit.

This is one of the reasons I hated Death Stranding. At 40~50 hours for the main campaign alone, the fun per minute ratio is greatly diminished.

I’d rather play a replayable 15-hour-or-less game: The Wonderful 101’s campaign is 12~15 hours, but I have close to 100 hours in the game and the fun per minute ratio is much higher than DS.

I also don’t predict I’ll stop revisiting The Wonderful 101 any time soon; whereas, I have no intention to touch Death Stranding again past the 100%.

Another example: it takes 30 minutes to 1CC Crimzon Clover, and I’ve had more fun in the ~25 hours I spent playing this game so far than all of my time in Death Stranding. Every second is fun, no filler. I love that.

🎶 Assassin’s Creed is a good franchise 🎶

Yeah, I thought this was dope.

We don’t have enough good Kaiju games, IMO. Inaba robbed us of Project G.G. or Kamiya messed up, IDK. But they need to work it out and finish that project at some point.

Maybe Clovers can buy the IP if Okami 2 is a hit, who knows. I doubt Platinum would mind.

Having to grovel to lower the difficulty in God Hand.

I haven’t tried that, but I did try Dishonored with a controller and neither movement nor aim felt right at all. I’d probably have the same concern with a handheld.

Unless I dock it and plug in KB+M, which would probably be too long of a workaround.
