I really want to support weird Capcom, but I don't have the disposable income rn. Of course, I'd find it if they'd give Marvel a frickin' release date, grumble grumble...

That's cool. I just want the Mahvel release date.

@Bunchesopuppies normally, if you want to make a lot of choices that affect the story and world around you, western RPGs are the way to go.

@TedSeattle you might enjoy a podcast called Running from Cops (the TV show, Cops) and a book called Rise of the Warrior Cop.

I really want this to be great, but I'm starting to worry that it is too generic...like American Fugitive. I'd be interested in something dystopian, or even on a different planet. Following procedure irl seems incredibly dull.

@Hyena_socks I saw someone criticizing a recent Star wars thing because it is "woke BS where all races and creeds come together to fight space Nazis" and I'm still in intensive care at the brain hospital.

One of the games I'm most excited about. I love tactics and I love Metal Slug.

The BFD...it's a plasma gun. Takes about an hour to reload.
Phobos Anal-maly? Meh.
I expected glory kills, not glory holes.
They should call it "The Dude Slayer."
I'm sorry.

@Bentleyma Nice! That console has a legendary library. Just the RPGs alone. I'm also a huge R&C/J&D fan. Honestly, if they just started making PS2s and printing discs again, I'd be all over it.

I don't play online MP games, or FTP games that are somehow also $40. Have a grand time if you do!
The hero shooter thing is especially odd to me, as a big fan of classic fps. You...you just want to play an fps with like one weapon? It's always seemed like a model that would make more sense as a co-op campaign where you switch characters or something. Look at Jericho! Or Brute Force! Did they not print money?!? Anyway, I'm probably just out of touch, and I'm okay with that.

@YoureTooSlowBro There are a good amount of people on here that speak a different language.

@Bentleyma nothing wrong w that. Sounds wonderful.

I'm hoping I enjoy Kunitsu Gami...cause recently I've just been sitting in front of my PS5 and staring at the screen, feeling empty. Sometimes I install something that looks interesting for a few hours while I play a Switch game? I don't think I've been more disappointed in a Sony console then this gen.

@KoopaTheGamer I hope you do. It's a great one.

@KoopaTheGamer if you dig the genre, check out Fight N' Rage. It's probably my favorite, after SoR2...and maybe SoR4 also. It's hard to parse which is my favorite.

Jeff Gerstmann recently said on his podcast that they were asking journos if they wanted footage provided and ghostwriters to do coverage for them. Pretty generous....
They were also preventing the word "gacha" in live streams. Seems like players are in good hands!!

@McBurn yeah man. Way too much to catch up on to go for this. It looks fun. Just not as fun as Star Ocean or Elden Ring or Quake, lol.

What?!? I'd given up hope on this! Rad. If anyone here hasn't played Nitronic Rush, go play that too! It is this games predecessor, made by a bunch of Digipen students, and free. Like, actual free, not post-factual reality free.
Next you'll tell me Super Indie Kart, Power drive 2000, and 90s Arcade Racer are coming out.

This will be fun to watch.

@nomither6 I thought Overwatch 2 killed Overwatch?

@nomither6 yeah definitely more a remaster situation. I would love for them to slow down w Sonic releases in general. I'm weary of all the remasters/remakes too.
...then again, Nightdive is doing God's work.

@nomither6 honest question, how do you feel about the upcoming Generations remake?

(facepalm)
That art is so embarrassing, omg...

@homelesscretin Yeah there really hasn't been much like them. Every now and then something will remind me of them (Gravity Circuit, Vernal Edge, Penny's Big Breakaway), but I would be over the moon to see something new from Treasure.

@homelesscretin I was interested for the developer and not the license. Almost everything Treasure did was legendary. If you never checked out their MD Yuyu Hakusho game, a translated rom is easy to track down. It was way, way ahead of it's time. 4 players, combo counters, cancels, supers, super cancels, different planes to fight on like Fatal Fury. Find it if you can!

Those Treasure developed Bleach fighters on DS sure were dope. Like their Yuyu MD fighter, but embiggened

I'll be catching up with 2023 for the foreseeable future, and ftp games are not for me anyway. Hope it's a good one of those though!

Wonderful. Looks like it has some vibrant backgrounds too!

Ftp is just not for me.

@Luigia Because Roadhouse? I legit love that movie
I have "Pain Don't Hurt" tattooed on my bicep with bloody brass knuckles and a straight razor. Should've done a knife boot...

@trev666 Hell yeah it could. They never quite nail the tone, but they came very close w Robocop. Like a cartoon that's dubbed and from a place foreign to me, lol. It's never spot on, but Robocop was almost there. They keep improving.

@Robocrop_Duster Holy crap Total Recall would be so perfect. Didn't even think of that.

Please be something Van Damme or Predator. Please? Oooh! Roadhouse RPG!!!
Also, yes! Rogue City is a blast!

I get the push back, but difficulty options like this in a big RPG are really exciting for me. It's a sneaky way to get my kids to read.

It misses w the 90s vibes, but separate from that it looks like a great time.

All that is fine, but if it's online only I'm out

This game is heartwarming. I don't do online games, but I'm oddly proud of this team. Just popped up and killed it.

@Silenos I can't stand any game begging me for money either. There's more to my disdain for gacha then strong-arm randomization.

@Mikey856 I'll take your word for it!

Not a gamblin' man myself.

I might try Borderlands 3. I've played about ten hours of it on my Switch. It's a great port, but you know...looks pretty rough. The tone of the comedy is not for me, but I just muted the dumb voices and enjoyed the shooting. I always start Borderlands on a high, but after a while juggling all of the weapons between inventory space and comparing stats wears me out.

Prodeus, Rise of the Ronin, and Link's Awakening (remake). Very happy with all of them.
Hope everyone has a great weekend, if you get one.

Steamworld Heist 2, The Precinct, and Astro for me. They all look like a blast!

@Cloud39472 Yeah! I don't like to see their name tarnished by greedy decisions. They're still a bright spot, but I don't have endless funds to buy the next best edition of each of their games.

...what is this "going on a holiday" I hear about in other countries?
@Cloud39472 I'm guessing this means that the dungeons are largely procedural. So you may not have technically seen every dungeon by the end, but you will feel like you have ten times over. But maybe not!
Either way, I'm not touching this until Atlus releases the finished game. So like 18 months after release or so.
Edit: OH. I just looked it up, didn't realize this game has a time limit. So, never getting it, lol.

How can anyone distrust a face like that?

@UltimateOtaku91 wait they convicted him without a trial and he is in jail now?

I'm interested to see how bad the monetization gets. I'm sure it'll be a great game, but I'm guessing things are going to get nasty on that end. They know they can getaway with a lot.
