Certified foxgirl enjoyer. Weeb, but hasn’t properly watched anime in ages. Gamer of incresingly niche subgenres. Aficionado of racecars, mechas, fighter jets, and any other vehicles you can think of. Lives in the wrong side of the planet compared to all my friends. Made way too many Fedi accounts

  • Always online even in singleplayer is already a non-starter, but other than that (people literally not being able to play the game on release due to congested login servers) the driving is subpar, the city map looks nice but is empty like a ghost town, the driving is subpar, the soundtrack is terrible, the radio inserts sound AI generated, and progression seems bad too.

    Oh, and apparently this was the best they could do after several delays of over a year. I hear the entire dev team went on strike against their publisher immediately after release too. And to think they also trashed their last WRC title for this, too. Just an absolute drawn out shitshow.




  • Although I grew up with Playstation controllers in my hands, ever since I tried an XBox 360 controller I never went back. I’ve been using XBone controllers on my PC for years now, and I just love the ergonomics of them in my hand, the clicky D-pad, the rounded buttons. I’ve always hated the PS dpad, it hurts my thumb. Now, I probably won’t keep buying “original” XBox controllers, but anything with that shape and feels that comfortable in my hand, will be my choice.











  • Armored Core 6 is pretty easy to 100% and it’s really enjoyable the whole way there. Just don’t bother with PvP.

    And my favorite 100% grinding game that I keep playing just because I enjoy it so much, is the Earth Defense Force series. The game encourages you to play each mission with each of the 4 classes in each of the 5 difficulty levels. Even though clearing Hard also gives you Easy and Normal completion too, you’re still looking at over 200 hours of gameplay, easily. The games have over 100 missions, tons of weapons to gradually improve, and at higher levels become true combat puzzles to solve with said weapons. Cheese is a way of life, in an enjoyable way.


  • I have been having an absolute BLAST with this new version since yesterday. The news of this and the subseauent drop as a free update for the versions I already owned on GoG and on the Switch just made my whole week, where I was bumned by the Helldivers bullshit.

    A solid new port by Nightdive, implementing most of the modern mapping techniques, able to run a LOT of custom content that was created over the past 30 years. Plus extra artworks, bonus IDKFA soubdtrack by Andrew Hulshult, addon downloads on all platforms (with user sent ones on the PC), and 16 player multiplayer?

    This is now the immediate response to anyone who wants to get into Doom nowadays. No need to fiddle with sourceports or go chase obscure mods, they’re ALL there. If you get more into Doom modding after that, you can go after all those things later. It’s great!
