No its not. Unless Japan released a Hook copycat I don’t know about. You can easily use the imdb link above to check yourself. Why lie?

Takayuka Yamada is not Dante Basco.

Doki Doki Literature Club is the GOAT. Can any VN gamers recommend something similar? Every other VN game I’ve tried had me wishing it was just a book and quitting before the end.

No, JD Vance has the face of a feral human stranded on an island for wayward kitties. Watched this episode of Metalocalypse immediately before the debate and it made the whole thing far more enjoyable

Please sell it to EA. Sell all the garbage game making companies to the undisputed king of shit so I can have an easier time avoiding shitty games.

If you enjoy turn based rpgs, you really should give them a try. Infinite Wealth is especially good and you don’t need to have played previous games to enjoy it. Not only do they do an amazing job of being funny or dramatic in all the right places, but there is such a wealth of content that you’ll regularly get lost in side quests and minigames on your way to completing story tasks.

Seems like Michael Scott is suffering from pinus envy

Pretty sure The Most Unwanted Song takes the cake on that front. It has bagpipes and opera rap! Good luck listening all the way through. https://youtu.be/-gPuH1yeZ08?si=NRXK7GH9qnDbGt3H

Look up cordyceps instead!

Not only do they look pretty, they sing pretty too. I did a lot of tree planting in my twenties and these beauties would sometimes appear to hang out and sing with me while I worked.

I appreciate the reasoned response. Maybe by the end of the game the pay items don’t feel limited, but they did in the first 20 hours I played before returning it.

If I was disappointed solely at the sales compared to my dislike then you’re right to think its nonsense. What I’m disappointed in is a business I have loyally and regularly purchased from for over 30 years compromising their product and making it worse to try and fleece more money. I also worry deeply that the game selling well despite the flak means every major developer will find their own way to follow suit and refine the tactic until it becomes the norm.

I was pointing out the idiocy of your petty assumption by stating I was at Battahl. Pretty sure its impossible to get there in only two hours.

Sure if 20 hours in isn’t far. I was at Battahl when I returned the game

Didn’t know you can get Battahl in 2 hours. You may be a speedrunner, but don’t assume others are too.

It absolutely is. Wakestones are limited without microtransactions and there are plenty of poorly explained quests where one could easily kill something they shouldn’t. It happened to me. I even saved right before to try and be safe only for the game to autosave over the second the npc attacked me. The only save you have full control over is your second save tied to the inns, which are expensive and inferior to camping due to the buffs camping provides.

This is really disappointing. The game does give off GOTY vibes until you realize big issues like only having one save file you can fully control, intentially vague dialogue for key quest details, and bad AI. All of which just happens to encourage mistakes that can only be fixed using items which are very limited without microtransactions. Its like an MBA took over in the final phase of development and made it a sleazy moneygrab. The fact that it is a hit means we can expect more developers to adopt this tactic and take it further. Capcom has become EA.

Thankfully I was able to get a refund on Dragons Dogma and used that money to buy Rise of the Ronin. Was not disappointed. They are very similar games but Rise of the Ronin has all the QoL features gamers have come to expect like unlimitted fast travel and saves.

Endometriosis is more common than people without vaginas realize and it often goes undiagnosed. My wife was gaslit about the pain of gyno procedures for two whole decades until the a doctor finally diagnosed her. A diagnosis which only came due a tubal ligation procedure forcing the doctors to physically see all the scar tissue inside her.

We should call them prawntatoes instead

They can tease all they want. They burned players bad with the first game and had a terrible attitude about it to boot. I doubt any of those issues will be fixed.

The saddest part is the idea and mechanics are amazing despite the poor execution. If they had a good attitude and listened to the devoted players who pay them, Temtem could blown up more than Palworld.

You mean a new Onion movie? If it is anywhere near as good as the first one, I’m all for it.
