Games I'm currently playing:
I think I like it, but I don't love it yet. It's undeniably well made. The story is told well, the acting, music, and graphics are all top notch. Really well done.
But the story isn't really hooking me yet. Something about that kind of fantasy story irks me. Like, the premise seems so outlandish and arbitrary that I can't tell if it's actually good or if it's just manipulative. I've seen so much praise for the intro, but to me it's like: "Every year on this day, something emotional and devastating happens!" Then it happens, apropos of nothing, and everyone is like, "Oh my god this intro is so emotional and devastating."
Just doesn't feel organic to me.
It's also not my type of game. I'm slightly less than neutral towards turn-based RPGs, and I'm firmly against parrying. Still, the execution is good enough that I'm going to stick it out a while longer.
I just can't seem to get past this no matter how hard I try.
Getting back into my 6 year old realm. Building a big stables near a cherry grove.
I've been playing this with my wife, and it's fantastic. Never boring, always clever and inventive. Just went through a whole pinball sequence that is just a master class in game design.
One of the best multiplayer games I've ever played. Also one of the best roguelikes. The gameplay is ridiculously tight, and the new characters are awesome. I wouldn't personally describe it as a coop Hades, but I wouldn't outright disagree with someone who did.
Shit, I just realized I've been playing a lot of games lately.
Don't know how far into Clair Obscur you are, but I recommend sticking with it. I can't really say anything else without spoilers but I found the story very good.
