I’m back to talk more about Steam Next Fest. I went on at length about this sub-genre of Hidden Object Games (HOGs) that is shoving hundreds of the same object in tthe background (in this case, cats), which I find to be boring unless there is some other hook in the game. Today, I tried… Continue Reading
I have more to say about games I play/don’t play/the state of the industry. I mean, there’s a lot going on there. Most of it is extremely shitty at the moment. I wrote about it in yesterday’s post, but I have more to say today. It’s pretty fucking bleak. I can’t stop thinking about how… Continue Reading
Let’s talk more about games I don’t/can’t play. Games I don’t play is easy* enough. I don’t play turn-based. Except. Ah, I just did. Kind of. And not just dipped into, but platted it. The Spirit Lift (prettysmart games), a roguelike deck-builder that was turn-based. The few times I have played turn-based games, I was… Continue Reading
Yesterday, I was intending to write about what my next game might be. I did mention the demos I’ve played in the past few days, but then I wandered very far away from the main point as in my wont. I needed to talk about what would make me turn off a game, especially an… Continue Reading
In yesterday’s post, I intended to talk about what my next game might be. I veered wildly off into brand loyalty and how I don’t think I’ll be playing FromSoft games for much longer (and why I’m OK with that. Well, not ok, but resigned). I’ve played several demos, and I immediately uninstalled several. Why?… Continue Reading
I am at a loss as to what game to play next. This happens when I get obsessed with a game. In this case, The Spirit Lift (prettysmart games). I was obsessed with it, and I want to parse what kind of games sink their claws into me. I will break down the games into… Continue Reading
I want to talk more about the games I tried out this year and did not get along with. There have been severeal, I see, as I have been looking over my Steam Replay timeline. Some of them are just the demos, whereas others are games I’ve bought. Oh, here’s the post I did yesterday… Continue Reading
Steam started doing Steam Replay a few years ago in which they break down the games you’ve played in the last year. Every pop media website seems to do some kind of wrap up at this time of year, but this is the only one I care about. It shows how many games I’ve played… Continue Reading
I normally play FromSoft games and a few indies here and there. I feel like I might play a huge chunk of ten games a year at best? And any year in which a FromSoft game is released (that I actually play, that’s a hint for later), that’s basically all I play other than casual… Continue Reading
In looking back on this year, I have been thinking about the games I’ve played. Yesterday, I wrote a post about how I’m aware of what a weirdo I am, but not how far outside of the norm I am. I can usually understand why normies feel the way they do, but sometimes, it’s just… Continue Reading
