It’s hard to top the inkjet printers I’ve owned. I still can’t believe 30 years later home printer tech is not only unimproved but worse between lower quality production and squeezing people on ink costs.

The accompanying Dragon Quest I & II announcement was a surprise. DQIII is the kind of game that could sell massively in Japan, so this is likely not the last we’ll see of HD-2D remakes.

I knew putting off Investigations 2 would pay off some day!

The first one’s great. Recommended for fans of the series that haven’t tried it yet.

Lenore from the Castlevania Netflix series.

Tons of consent issues for sure, but she’s gorgeous and smart as hell.

If it is a full remake, as suggested by both the Nvidia leak and these listings, we have no idea what it’s going to look like in comparison.

People that don’t like early 3D games with super low framerate and sluggish transitions are going to struggle with the original.

The Square Enix ones mentioned in the article are nothing earth-shattering–the Final Fantasy XVI PC port and what’s most likely the Final Fantasy IX remake. FF9 was part of the previous Nvidia leak.

It’s the typical end-of-generation lull right now, but even with that, the brand is broadly, wildly popular. The Switch is approaching the PS2’s sales record. Throw in all the money from MTX now and it’s surely the most profitable venture ever in traditional video games.

That’s precisely why Nintendo can afford to burn up goodwill with trash like this move.

Still the best implementation of ATB they ever did.

Someone pointed out that there’s quite a few MC voice lines here, and that’s a big wildcard for me. I thought Alix Wilton Regan absolutely knocked it out of the park as my Inquisitor, so that’s a high bar to clear.

Ultimately it’s going to come down to the cast, though. Won’t know until I get my hands on it.

I edited the link to a Youtube channel that ripped and rehosted the video.

We’ll see tomorrow, but I’m not convinced this wasn’t all planned. Negative marketing is a thing, and if they had assets left over from earlier development, it would have been a cheaper trailer to make. People are talking about how absurd the trailer was, and that’s a far, far better marketing result than apathy.

Haven’t seen any follow-up, but if I’m being honest, what Square Enix Europe did bothers me just as much as the dev. That’s gotta be systemic over there.

I had a good time with Before the Storm and True Colors. The Expanse was less exciting (despite it being based on one of my favorite properties ever), mostly because the episodes were too short. That doesn’t look like it’ll be an issue here since it sounds like it’s a one-time release again like True Colors.

I didn’t like them as much as the first LiS but I see that game as lightning in a bottle in a lot of ways, especially for someone like me that used to live in that part of Oregon.

How Hidden Nazi Symbols Were the Tip of a Toxic Iceberg at Life Is Strange Developer Deck Nine

Depending on what you mean, all of Warcraft’s expansions are “standalone” now. You’ll get all the previous content with a purchase.

It’s the start of a three-expansion story arc.

The studio head count is under 40, so best not to expect massive production values here. It’ll be a smaller game than Metaphor, for example.

That said, absolutely the highlight of the day for me. I’ll be keeping a close eye on it.

Pretty sure I heard Jennifer English, too!

Definitely not Doom 3, lol.

I knew a new Life is Strange was coming from Deck Nine, but I wasn’t expecting a Max sequel. So that’s exciting, even if the recent news about the studio was quite ugly.

That’s my guess too. I figure this had to be just misguided marketing (or even ragebaiting) ahead of the reveal on Tuesday.

Though I suppose it’s possible this is the route they decided to go with for the game with a slave state setting…
