I think I’m done with Lords of the Fallen (HexWorks, CI Games). You’ll notice I did not say I had finished the game because I haven’t. I don’t think I’m even halfway done. It’s just that when I think about playing the game, I become lethargic and unhappy. Like, I ‘should’ play the game, but… Continue Reading
Lords of the Fallen continue to test my patience. I mentioned in the last post a few of the positives that I found in the game. The ease with which you can summon is one of them. At the beginning of the next session, however, I was in the same boss room and about to… Continue Reading
In my last post, I said I was done with Lords of the Fallen (HexWorks/CI Games). I wasn’t. This is like Lies of P in which I feel done with it, but I keep going. A funny note about the latter. My nibling messaged me asking if I’d heard of a game called Lies of… Continue Reading
I think I’m done with Lords of the Fallen (Hexworks/CI Games). The last time I played was day before yesterday, and the last hour or so was me running from checkpoint to checkpoint. Here’s my last post on the game. I did take some time to try to learn the asshole enemy–oh, excuse me. I… Continue Reading
Many moons ago, there was a game called Lords of the Fallen. It was developed by Deck13 Interactive and published by CI Games. It was one of the first if not the first soulslike, and it was slavish in how close it adhered to Dark Souls. In both a good and a bad way. There… Continue Reading
*MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR END GAME* I legit beat Lies of P (Neowiz Games/Round8 Studio) yesterday. Before this, I had beaten the purported last boss, but then had to make a choice. With one choice, I would have ended the game. That involved giving something to Geppetto, and no way in hell I was doing that.… Continue Reading
I’m frustrated. I’ve been a minority all my life in several ways, the most obvious one being race. I’m Asian. I live in a state that is predominately white. It’s gotten more diverse over time, but it’s still pretty damn white. So me being Asian is a very defining feature. I’m fine with that now,… Continue Reading
One of the things that frustrates me in the RKG Discord is how people keep saying that the From games aren’t hard. This has become the new mantra: The games aren’t hard; you just have to be thoughtful when you play them. I want to say right up front that this may be true for… Continue Reading
There was one game I was really looking forward to this year. It was Mineko’s Night Market (Meowza Games) which was announed some time ago. It looked really cute and cozy, which was rigt up my alley. The style reminded me of Night in the Woods with the big eyes, but more cartoon-y. I wasn’t… Continue Reading
Ok. I’m hoping this will be my final post on Lies of P (Neowiz Games, Round8 Studio). I want to put it to rest so I can move onto other games.Like Mineko’s Night Market (Meowza Games), which was released a few days ago. I had been looking forward to it and bought it immediately. But… Continue Reading
