@webbedspace This rules. Thank you so much for writing it! I'm right at the point in my runs where a few of these tips are invaluable w/o feeling too spoilery.

(watching my annual six hours of nba) Wemby is a lot like a Fromsoft boss whose overall size and lengthy attack animations can be exploited. These guys should just turn target-lock off and quick-step more frequently

@MetroidMike64 Best part about it tbh. Bold decision that pays off

[sjr @SamuelJRo]

@GtzaStudio Ristar vibes from that grab - looks fantastic!

[sjr @SamuelJRo]

@_Sheehogue_ Don’t even disagree w/ this at all and still adored it

[sjr @SamuelJRo]

@KeroKeroppi64 miserable series imo

[sjr @SamuelJRo]

More to say, but after 2x dungeons Mina (@YachtClubGames) is just an actual dream release for me. Open secret that in '01 it was Flagship (Capcom) that made the most wondrous & weird of the 2D Zelda games. Mina starts as an homage to those (w/ better combat!) & explodes. Bravo!

@stephentotilo Really commendable. Yacht Club is a special studio and their iteration in the SK sequels is very underrated & inspiring IMO

@alittleyareli If you mostly play on Steam the gateway here (imo) is ZeroRanger, BLUE REVOLVER, and Mushihimesama

@Pirat_Nation well deserved, pretty much my GOTY last year

@BenjiGameDev treating games as art doesn’t exempt them from critique, it’s what makes deeper critique possible in the first place

[sjr @SamuelJRo]

@LocalBtnMasher for sure. I have it running on Deck, which is likely why I prefer native Steam releases ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's interesting that the Sight and Sound movie poll produced some interesting results, whereas the Guardian book poll seems wholly useless.

[sjr @SamuelJRo]

@ChefVolk0 terrific picks

[sjr @SamuelJRo]

@KOMODO_Games_HI I would give you all of my currency for Steam ports of Ketsui, Mushi Futari, DDP DOJ, ESP Ra. De., Dangun Feveron, Espgaluda, etc.

[sjr @SamuelJRo]

You guys get it

@Niflheimm155983 @belkaid60858 Yep good post. It is the one i return to most often these days which says a lot.

@Osinttechnical No biggie, just our military burning up half a billion dollars doing dumb shit
