Fire Emblem 7 on the hardest difficulty. Probably going to (re)play Fire Emblem 6 now. My save file disappeared as I was nearing the end. I found it again but after over a year of absence I feel it'd be better to start fresh.
I'll probably emulate it on my newly hacked Vita. The screen is absolutely lovely on this thing. I'll probably end up playing 4 and 5 on this for the first times as well, hopefully they can live up to the hype.
I wonder how many people will sperg out in this thread.

I want to go back and play Dark Souls 1 but I just can't get into it anymore. I know where all the items are, I know all the strategies to defeat all the enemies, and I've seen the environments dozens of times before. I have been told that I should try and speedrun it, but that just sounds like a chore. The magic is gone, and it feels like a little bit of me has died.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Really good, I'm 80 hours in and just finished chapter 5. I've been running around building up all the unique blades I've been lucky enough to get from that stupid fucking gacha system.
Deceit
Fun game, four innocent, two infected, gotta escape. Kinda like the table top game werewolf/mafia, mixed with slenderman.
The Mummy Demastered
Good stuff so far. Controls are a bit clunky, I guess I'm just used to the smoother controls in the Metroid games when playing a metroid-like. Wayforward do some good shit, but I wouldn't call this one of their best.
Romancing Saga 2
Only booted it up and watch the main intro so far, but goddamn I hope there is an option for classic visuals. The "HD" shit is just ugly. Give me the original backgrounds. SE truly are terrible at re-releasing old games. They just cannot stop fucking up. Say what you will be about Nintendo's VC shit, at least their games still look and play like they're supposed to.

>A Hat in Time
Same. Fun platformer. I liked the mechanics of it. It ripped off Mario Sunshine a lot, but I guess I didn't care since I was getting a lot out of it. Alpine Skyline was best area. The murder mystery with the crows was great as well.
After completing A Hat in Time I realized that I had downloaded Gurumin long ago but never played it. Stupidly, I got an undub of the PSP version not knowing the PC version had a Japanese audio mod which isn't even difficult to find. The stereotypical anime dub voices annoyed me so I switched it to Japanese by copying over the English audio. I noticed some changes in the PSP version without even playing it very far. Some objects were moved and the timing meter for criticals was removed entirely; some odd choices. I went with the PC version since it looks much nicer. It still doesn't play in 60fps though nor will it go over 1080p. They probably tied the game logic to framerate as nip devs tend to do, but the resolution limitations don't make any sense because even when people tried to memory hack the game to increase the resolution it just puts the game in a corner and doesn't enlarge it.
That aside, like the game a lot. The music and cute girl reminds me of playing Ape Escape 3 as Yumi. There were a bunch of costumes. The schoolgirl costume has a cat tail but I had to buy the cat ears separately as a piece of gear which apparently reveals treasure chests on the map. To my surprise, after putting on the cat ears Parin started shouting "NYA!" when she does attacks. Cute as fuck. I discovered a neat feature: you can find pictures in the game and when you go to your desk in your room you can apply them as a windows desktop wallpaper. Weird that I've never encountered such a feature in the many PC games I've played over so many years.
Is S+ the best rank you can get in normal difficulty? I've been autistically smashing every last object, but getting plenty of money for it. Dunno if I need to smash everything though. Was saving my junk for upgrading once I had more head gear. The helmet that lowers damage taken seems like the best thing I have right now, but I like the cat ears since they make Parin do cat sounds.

Uplink. A lot of interesting mechanics built into a game revolving around hacking. Draws from some real world knowledge so I had to invest my own time into gitting gud at computer science. For example, there's command prompts in the game and you can use this to execute actions, "cd" changes the directory, etc.
Makes me feel like games with entry barriers like this should probably make a comeback, I don't mean prior skill, I mean prior knowledge. And if not that, then at least some willingness to learn.
The game doesn't hold your hand either. It marks an objective for you to do but doesn't explain how to complete it, you have to figure it out yourself using your own brain. For example, one of the missions you can get is to trace a hacker who recently broke into a company's system. You have to hack the system yourself and look into the recent logs, write down the the IP, look up the IP, find the internet connection that was routed ("bounced") through another company's system, break into THAT system, and keep following the trail until you locate the hacker's gateway. Then note down his IP address and send it to your employer for payment.
Pretty great game, looking forward to trying the mod Onlink. My only real complaint is that the storyline is way too short, there's only like 5 missions and its a good vs. evil blacks-and-white morality narrative. Also the devs coded a functioning IRC client the game so you could chat with IRL people playing the game.

I'm not entirely sure whether it's better or worse than BBS, but I'm having fun with it. Flowmotion is great for enhancing movement and the levels are bigger to make good use of it, but it sucks shit in combat and more often than not gets me killed because I accidentally activated it by rolling it into a wall. Spirit raising seems tacked-on and I miss being able to meld commands, but it's still the tried and true KH formula, so I can't complain too much.

Not a whole lot has changed from the first one, so I feel right at home with this game.

Currently focusing on Xenoblade Chronicles right now, just got to Fallen Arm. The combat is immensely fun, just wish there were more of those enemies where vid related kicks in (not sure what they're called).
Finished Cuphead a few days ago, been doing S/P-ranks off and on, currently at 154% completion.
Been playing through the FF games for the first time this year, started with the PS1 era, just finished 9 and I'm on 10 now. Just beat Spherimorph, iirc. I've also been going through 4 in bursts on my phone during off-time at work.

Shit story, shit framerate and shit resolution thanks to massive performance issues. Worst voice acting I've ever heard in a videogame, and even the JP voices are terrible in combat.
Gameplay takes too long to open up, there's nothing to fucking do in the world and the sidequests are the worst and most tedious that I've ever seen in a JRPG.
Gameplay is okay at end game, but until about chapter 8 it's really slow and dull. Shitty gachapon system that really ruins the game and restricts party composition. Inconsistent writing, especially for Zeke who goes from a funny chuuni to a generic dude.
But the biggest offender out of all of this is that they pulled an Infinite Undiscovery ending after all that. That game didn't get a pass for such a bad ending and neither does this one.

I started playing Just Cause 2, despite buying it on a Steam Summer sale back in 2011 and never touching the game because I wanted something to do whilst I listen to podcasts. Now I've conquered all of the territories and have a 96% completion. There's one sea port I couldn't conquer because it has some kind of glitch but nonetheless, I've conquered all that can be conquered.
I saw a map recently that compared the sizes of all the various game worlds. I remember seeing it on 4/v/ back in 2011 or so actually. I knew JC2 was big but I had no idea it was actually so big compared to say, GTA3 or San Andreas or Oblivion. Considering how much of JC2's map is just empty space to create the game's atmosphere and it seems kind of bloated in hindsight although I'm sure I would've been impressed back then.
Now that I'm done with JC2, I'll either beat the game again in Legendary for the achievement or I'll simply move on to some korean MMORPG for my something-to-do-whlist-listening activity.

Been going through Doom's TNT Evilution since it's practically a tradition for me to start the fucker and not finish it for no good reason but I think this year is the year.

Level 16 is the raddest fucking cave level I have ever seen. The midis are pretty groovy sometimes aswell.

Ys Seven
God, what a fucking decline. The near-complete absence of platforming killed dungeon variety hard, with most of them being straightforward monster gauntlets, on top of always available minimaps nullifying any sense of exploration. You'd think that with no platforming that they'd place a heavier focus and expand the combat system, but the new Skill System consists of having a dozen or so superfluous skills you'll never use aside from the strongest ones. Each elemental thingy in Oath/Origin would also have an additional effect for platforming, but that's mostly gone in favor of Dark Souls rolling everywhere. On top of that the enemies here are even less dangerous, less mobile, and less aggressive than in the Ark engine games. So all enemies just feel the same, even towards the endgame.
Flash Guarding sounds cool, but all it really does is make each attack the fucking same because you can block literally any kind of attack through a simple matter of timing regardless of positioning. And you want to do it because it is the fastest way to fill up your EXTRA gauge for your EXTRA skill. This gets more retarded with persistent attacks like whirlwind attacks where the amount of EXTRA you gain depends on how quickly you can mash Flash Guard, and since Flash Guarding slows down time on hit, you will be Guarding and mashing A LOT for some attacks, which takes up a fuckton of time. A nice part about it is that after each Flash Guard you get a damage bonus (and you also receive bonus damage if you fuck up your timing), though for some reason this bonus doesn't carry over if you switch between party members. Attack-wise it makes all the bosses feel the same, what only distinguishes bosses at this point is how you deal damage to them or what status ailments they can give you, which quite frankly have no place in the game.
There's pointless item gathering and pointless expanded weapon arsenal which is in place in order to facilitate a more traditional JRPG progression of go into the wild -> kill monsters -> get gold -> enter new town -> buy newest tier of gear in shop on top of a rudimentary crafting system which facilitates more grinding. Each skill can be upgraded to LVL10, and you get 1 EXP for each time you use a skill, rather than how much enemies you use it on. Which is inefficient, and facilitates even more grinding because getting a skill to LVL10 takes too fucking long. Then you need to do this across seven different party members, and frequently juggle Training Rings in order to boost skill EXP gain. And this is necessary if you don't want to fight the final boss with underleveled and undergeared party members. Ever played a JRPG where you have multiple party members in the backburner you never use but are suddenly forced to use them for story reasons while your main party members aren't available? Then you'll know that feeling. Of course, there's a good portion of grind involved in the endgame dungeon if you don't want your party to fight the final boss with subpar weapons which take forever to kill it.
You have to do Charge Attacks constantly in order to be able to build up SP for using skills, and use skills in order to build up EXTRA for using your EXTRA skill. The thing is that because you're constantly holding down B your thumb is going to get cramped fast, Megaman-style. Also the game does a poor job at explaining any of the deeper mechanics. Just what do these EXTRA skills do? How much damage do these skills deal? How much stun do these skills deal? Why can some enemies be launched but others not? Is there any logic to enemy stagger?
I'm actually glad there's healing items in place here, because most of the bosses tend to be on the HP bloated side of things with barely any multiple phases to speak of and take too long to kill to begin with, this way I don't need to grind my way to victory either. Especially on Nightmare mode, just fuck it. Had it not been for the traditional Falcom bubble-wrap feeling combat and music and presentation, I'd have dropped it a long time ago. As it stands Ys Seven can only be enjoyed on lower difficulties and/or people who like to turn off their brains.

I ended up losing maria, my ranger sequoia and my p-90 though, which sucks horribly. But i'm happy to finally be through the quest and on the other side. Getting ready to go to the Madre and go solo operator for a bit before hand.

Brutal doom is fine, just don't stop there when it goes to doom modding. Icaruslives has covered a bunch of good mods that are worth checking out.
If you want to keep the gore from brutal doom, get the ketchup standalone. Also get ZDL since it makes running mods a lot simpler rather than fucking about with command lines to run more than 1 mod.

I never actually played the campaign, but in multiplayer the amount of niggers is pretty ridiculous. One good thing though is that most of the scout class character models are black, and I personally consider snipers the niggers of the battlefield, so that's kinda funny.
The character models of the blacks are also hilariously goofy looking. Like they made them look so fucking stupid, the german scout class niggers look like a fat nosed nigger child playing dress up, it's so fucking stupid.

Doki Doki Literature Club is the best VN I've played in a while. It's not a groundbreaking concept but it was executed well. Short enough that I could recommend it to someone who's not really into visual novels.
Main flaw is that it has no staying power. Once you finish seeing everything the game has to offer, it's completely forgettable. Still, it's a fun ride while you're on it.
Sayori's death actually caught me by surprise, even though I was waiting for something crazy to happen right from the beginning. Unfortunately, that's the climax of the whole story. Nothing really hits that peak afterwards and the stuff that's supposed to be really intense feels completely safe and tame by comparison.

Staying power doesn't mean replay value.
When I say staying power, I mean how long the experience of a game will stick with you.
I can think back to something like Saya no Uta, or Clannad, or Sengoku Rance, and those games I remember extremely fondly with lots of scenes and plot points and such that resonate with me, or I can remember a track and immediately recognize the feelings I felt when I played the game.
Doki Doki Literature Club is more like a one and done experience. In a month from now, I might remember it but I doubt I'd have that same connection to it. In six months from now, I'll probably have forgotten it entirely.

Well, the games started on the PS2 (as an aside, "Yakuza: The Wreckless Missions" has no connection), then jumped to the PS3 (with the PSP getting some spinoffs like Black Panther). Japan got the aforementioned HD collection of 1 and 2, meaning that up through Yakuza 5, the system had all the main series games, as well as a number of spinoffs. Said HD version could have served nicely out here, giving the west a chance at Yakuza 1 with Japanese audio (the original being English only out here and undub patch attempts supposedly breaking the game) and Yakuza 2 being buyable at a better price than the aftermarket at the time (for a while it was going for like $50-80, at least where I live), but Sega apparently didn't think it was worth it, so those remained PS2 only here. It took forever for Sega to be convinced to bring Yakuza 5 west, and even then only had confidence in a digital only release (not even allowing a limited print run), but now the series seems to be coming over easier again, with 0, Kiwami, and the upcoming 6 and (I assume) Kiwami 2 on the PS4. Still nothing for spinoffs aside from Dead Souls (though I've heard before that at least one of the Japan only games would never have seen the light of day here anyhow, at least without censorship).

Its all pretty good and fun, with a lot of new interesting content until some random hacker frames YOU and you get disavowed because you didn't hack into the Crime Database again to wipe your criminal record in the last 30 ingame minutes.

So far I find the changes to be rather nice. The increased XP is pretty much unnoticeable, it feels like I get roughly the same amount of XP as the last games. The increased movement speed is a welcome improvement too, and the increased inventory size as well.

Been playing Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 on PS4. Big mistake. Should've done more research. You can only do crazy fusion shit on PC with mods, changing lock on to the right enemy when there's three or more is terrible, locking onto a downed ally while there are many enemies is hell, and they have an online mode without stats so you can have a fair fight, but no local without stats so couch vs is always shit. They have lootbox tier bullshit where you can sacrifice two equipment pieces, and optionally an item, to make a QQ Bang that overwrites all other equipment with superior stats so you can dress up how you want. The QQ Bang you get is heavy on RNG and you can spend up to 30$ at a time to buy in game currency to buy equipment to spin the QQ Bang lotto. The DLC is overpriced as fuck. There're six DLC packs for 10$ each that are low on content. There's a 30$ season pass that only covers the first four packs.

>>she shouts NYA when she attacks while having cat ears on
>god damn that's fucking cute.
Only if you're also wearing the Schoolgirl outfit with the cat tail on it. Add the cat ears and with the full outfit she changes too say "NYA!" during attacks. I also got another complete outfit with the Chinese Dress + Hair Buns. The Chinese outfit makes her do kung fu shouts like "ATA". Pajamas + Night Cap makes her sound sleepy during attacks. Monkey Suit + Monkey Head makes her go "EE EEE!" during attacks.
There's a lot of neat details in it. There's a park where you can go down a slide, swing on bars, if you reach the top of the jungle gym (which is pretty difficult actually) you get a crown that discounts store items. I've got gold medals on every level so far, but I've hardly found any of the 11 hidden platinum medals that Motoro wants. I like that you can break so many things. When you step onto a healing platform Pariin's cloths temporarily dissolve in the healing light as she does a rotating+levitating pose like a magical girl anime transformation
Things I dislike most so far: The camera; sometimes when you are doing a jump the camera instantly changes position just after you have jumped and you fuck up your direction. Sometimes jumping doesn't quite work which may be related to the wonky deadzone on the joystick. Sometimes you can get moving from a stop other times it's sluggish to get moving causes fuck-ups. If I want to get moving it's best to either do a dodge start jumping. Hopping around is faster than running anyway.
Also, If I'm wholly honest, the voice acting with the Japanese audio isn't much better either. Solely in the cutscenes/conversations though, the attack cries sound fine but in cutscenes/conversations Parin doesn't sound emotive at all and it's not like that charming moe cliche where the girl sounds like she's drowsy because those types actually DO emote sometimes. There can be a scene in which Parin must be angry or frightened but the VA is barely emoting anything. Again, the attack cries in the game are fine and the other VAs are decent too, but watch any cutscene with Parin + jap audio and you will hear her using the same tone, no emotive range. I don't really play games for cutscenes, but it's just weird since the VA is perfectly capable of raising her voice as demonstrated in the attack cries.
Regardless, so far a pretty gud game with cute girl drilling the shit out of everything.

I finally got a new computer that can actually handle Tekken 7. I never touched a Tekken before and I have no clue what I'm doing but boy is it fun. I wish I got into the series way earlier 'cus I really like the character designs and music.
Xenoblade 2 is RPG of the generation for me. An RPG has never really sucked me into it like this one has. It makes me feel like what I imagine other people felt playing Final Fantasy 6 or Chrono Trigger back in the day, and I'm not even an impressionable retarded kid anymore. The field design and pretty much all of the mechanics are so much better than Xenoblade's; it's a lot more complicated but everything is connected in logical ways, so I still feel like I understand it better than Xenoblade's stuff. The story is a bit slower, but I like it this way. Xenoblade felt like a crazy ride I got to go on, but Xenoblade 2 feels like a world I get to be a part of.
I don't think I have anything to say about Breath of the Wild that hasn't already been said, but I've been playing it. Having to restart for Master mode has actually been a lot more enjoyable than I expected. I'm trying to limit myself on food but the rules are a little arbitrary. Basically no special effects but temperature stuff is okay, maybe. I was originally doing a low heart run, but it's just so easy to get yellow hearts and defense buffs and not even care, so now I'm doing the opposite. I also went after Ganon without doing any of the divine beasts, which was fun, but now I'm kicking myself because the new DLC requires that you do all of them. The game became a lot more fun when I realized you can parry EVERYTHING and that it actually has advantages over the dodge jump.
Finally, I got Wild World off of the Wii U eShop and I've been playing that. I had no idea how much I had missed Animal Crossing until now. Not much to say, one of my neighbors caught a 275cm tuna for the fishing tournament last week, I built a snowman… I hope the next game has online towns, 'cus I'll actually get it despite how badly they've ruined everything else. I never got to have a town with other actual players in it.

The controls in Gurumin are lacking or maybe suck and the towns need to be fleshed out more. That and Falcom seems to be quite late to the 3D platform market, but it's a damn fun game for sure.

I have nearly 20 hours into it. I have gold medal rank on all levels and a lot of the pictures, but not many platinum medals.
I beat the end boss which was easy, saw the ending, very sad. Now I'm trying to beat the optional boss at the top of the map but I can't beat Blackbean. Once you get his health low enough you get 3 Blackbean running around doing 3 elemental attacks with a large Area of Effect which stunlocks Parin to the point of being unable to get many hits in at all. To top it off, the three Blackbean clones are only weak to one of three elements so you can either keep swapping over and over or stick with one element and try to find the one that is weak to it in a clusterfuck of unending attacks. I think I need all the platinum medals. Motoro said I would get special drill parts if I found 11 plat medals, so that probably amplifies your attack power or something. If I had something like that I could probably beat Blackbean. Right now I have to use the helmet which is upgraded to negate 65% of damage. If I got 999 junk I could upgrade it again, but that's a tall order.
I bought all the gold medal items except the Sleeping Cap. I think the last gold medal I need is obtained through the railway section at the end of a level. If you manage to kill every enemy while flying down the tracks you get a gold medal, at least that's how it was in the other level with a railway at the beginning. Hopefully there's another minigame that would give me a gold medal since obtaining the one from that railway would be really aggravating since it's one chance and if you fuck up you have to redo the whole level to get to it again.
I will probably give up on 100% completion since I already beat the end boss and saw the ending. I really doubt I can find 11 platinum medals without a guide.

Playing the latest build of Factorio right now, with Bob's and Yuoki's installed as well as some other assorted stuff. I wanted to try Angel's as well, but it's not updated yet.
It's just as well, though, because I only just had my first successful and complete vanilla runthrough last week after learning better fluid management practices.
I'd heard that Bob's added some complexity to the game, but holy mother of fuck. I was having trouble tangling my production lines of the ~6 fluids in the base game, and now here I am with tanks of Ammonia, Nitrogen, Chlorine, Hydrogen Chloride, Oxygen and Sulfur Dioxide, and I'm trying to work out proper pipelines and production chains to split and mix all of these to make even more of them. I don't even know what the fuck they're used for, I'm just doing industrial-scale chemistry because I can.
Feels like a job sometimes, but it's also fun as heck.

I did manage 100% completion for A Hat in Time, but they don't give you enough rift tokens to get all the cosmetic items so you have no choice but to use cheats to spawn rift tokens for the slot machine. I still think shit is missing. After winning all the cosmetic gear you can't use slots anymore and I can't help but think there were more remixes available even though I got the completionist hat.

Given the speed at which it's gone down (having been released here last month), I have to question if it's a temporary markdown for the holidays, or a permanent one that's only liable to get lower due to availability outstripping current demand at this point. Still, at current prices, that's like $7.50 per volume which certainly beats the prices the PS2 versions have seen for years up until now by a long shot (especially given the whole release format of the entries prior; "one game for the price of three" and all that). I'd just hope that the English scripts of the prior volumes simply got typography tweaks and that the new Vol.4 might have a good English script/not-phoned-in voicing, or changed VAs. Haven't heard much on those ends yet, aside from the additional lines the English PS2 version of Rebirth having been cut from the rerelease (JP fanbase got asspained back in the day about us getting more voicing, resulting in no additional line work for the western versions of Vol.2 and 3) and "IXI"/"Ichida" apparently having his cameo removed.

It's just that the jump down seems pretty sudden if you ask me. There's some PS3 compilations that have continued to hold value rather well (the Ratchet and Clank one on the PS3 is still just short of the full $30 launch price where I live, and that came out over five fucking years ago), yet the G.U. PS4 one's already down 40% after two months? Not necessarily saying it's a bad thing, just questioning what's going on. Walmart seems to be following suit as well (though maybe just their website; their brick and mortar isn't known for price matching their online), while Fucking Gamestop is still at $40 preowned and Best Buy is full $50.

Assassin's creed origins.
Quick rundown:
So I haven't beaten it yet so I don't know the entirety of the propaganda angle so bear with me. So far it WUZ the jews that were KANGZ and ebil whitey and darkie dat be oppreshun dem. The protagonists rally around cleopatra as their true leader of egypt but i'm sure she'll backstab them later in the story.
As for gameplay the fighting mechanics are pretty solid, that's about it. Just lots of sand and the few iconic landmarks of old egypt, also speaking of which, apparently according to the game many of the ruins are actually ancient in relation to that time period, ya know, (((ancient aliens)))
anyways I'm 20 hours in, about 45 percent completion, this is considering the game forces you to complete many side quests to gain the level you need to complete the main quests, yet if you are a good gamer you can easily beat enemies 3-4 levels above your own.
The boss fights are sort of epic but nothing you haven't seen before. As for the rest of the game it's mostly an appeal to altruism and whole lot of repetitive kill this kill that.
tl;dr
5/10 Sand, fake history, and muh strong womyn.

I played Ys I and beat it in one long sitting. I really couldn't decide on using the Complete or Chronicles art throughout. Often Chronicles art would look better for the contrast while Complete art was washed out but had a more 90s anime aesthetic. The Chronicles art would often make characters look younger as well which, depending on the character, either worked or didn't. I also had to pick between the Complete and Chronicles music. I mostly liked the Complete version of the music, but occasionally the Chronicles would sound really good. The final boss is a fucking faggot, bouncing around the screen and destroying whatever you're standing on when you hit him while requiring so many hits and shooting fireballs everywhere constantly, My god, what a prick. The demon that turns into a huge swarm of bats was no picnic either. And all this was on Normal difficulty so the tryhards on Nightmare difficulty must have been really sweating from this shit.
Dunno what the fuss is about the Ys series. For some reason Ys I kept making me think back to Alundra which IMO has more content. Maybe I'll play Ys II. (or finish Alundra)

I tried Examina. I had an older version downloaded, but never installed it so I got a later version and gave it a go. I'm really not good at the combat. My character has a perk that allows you to do two swings back and forth, but it doesn't seem to be working. The devs talked up the AI in the description of the game, but the AI is honestly retarded. The easiest tactic for survival is to get an aggro enemy to hit a non-aggro so they'll start fighting and hope the aggressive one is killed in the fight. I can't find armor so I usually put a chair, bucket or a ladder over my character and just hope it blocks attacks. The most I got was a shirt, vest, jacket, pants, boots and I managed to find one key to the a prison section which didn't really contain anything of interest other than a jacket which was very slightly better than the one I had, but was aesthetically inferior. I like using the torch with a one-handed weapon so II can actually see around. But, when I find a shield and make the secondary equip shield + one-handed weapon I have a hell of a time switching to that second equip with the shield when I'm being chased and forced into combat. As far as I can tell you have to come to a full stop, hit R, then wait for your asshole character to change equip, all while some maniac is chasing you down at top speed. Kinda ridiculous. I can't help but think this game would be much better if the combat worked more traditionally instead of using Goat Simulator meme physics (even if it does add a level of uncertainty and sometimes humorous outcomes).

There's so much to learn here that you have to be a masochist or younger and more talented than I am to get all of it, and I always fail at least one out of antiairs, real pressure and matchup knowledge/proper footsies because none of that is autopilot for me yet and I can't focus on more than one thing at a time.

Surprisingly decent, probably the first game Arkane's made that genuinely fits the description of an immersive sim.
