I can’t tell how comedic this anime is intending to be, or whether the source material is supposed to be comedic, but man I find it funny. Every time I think something serious is about to happen it’s a coin flip on whether it’s actually serious or whether it’s some goofy shit that has me rolling.
Foddy is a game developer with a history of making games with frustrating control schemes. He originally got notoriety for QWOP, where you use the QWOP keys to control the runner’s left and right knees and feet and run as far as you can. Lately he’s better known for Getting Over It, a rage platformer where you play as a guy in a cauldron who moves by using a hammer to drag/throw himself around.
The description and comments on the video 100% confirm multiplayer. Honestly I’d be excited for the game either way, but I have a lot of fun playing crafting/survival games with friends so it’s appreciated.
On our trip a few years back we got some simple pastries, sandwich supplies, and snacks from Bonus to save money and I never felt like we were missing out on good food. Even as a discount grocer everything we got from there was super good.
Cheese plugs a lot of people up, especially an unholy yet tempting slab like that.
I finished the main story last night and I basically agree with you. It’s got plenty of issues, but overall it’s fun. It is neither the 9/10 game of most reviews I saw nor the 4/10 game that people want it to be.
I think my main issue is that it wants to have a story about the underworld and how you can’t trust anyone and you’re a huge underdog just trying to survive but it doesn’t want to commit to it. It feels thematically janky in places and ways that feel design-by-committee. It fills the shoes of Shadows of the Empire decently enough, but it feels like it was trying to be 1313 and failed.
I know the story isn’t really that interesting, and the anime adaptation isn’t that brilliant, but I’m still excited. Solo Leveling is good at hyping me up and the hype only goes up from here.
I have read some bad fucking Star Wars books in my youth. Still love them. Even Darksaber, where a random hutt builds a death star because it’s actually even easier to build planet-destroying weapons than Disney made it seem.
Yep, it sounds pretty much exactly like what people expected.
Honestly, I’m on a bit of a Star Wars kick lately and it’s been long enough since I’ve played an Ubisoft open world to find some enjoyment, so I might pick this up. But it certainly doesn’t sound like it’s going to blow me away.
Yeah, there was a whole kerfuffle about it because all the files were still on the disc, therefore some jurisdictions re-rated the game to some version of adults only. Rockstar definitely did all the development work to get that sex in the game, they just decided not to show it in normal gameplay.
Love this light novel. Far too relatable.
Idk if it’s just the angles but the art looks a little off. Hopefully works out well when it airs, just gives me weird vibes.
I know AI translation is improving in many cases, but this feels like it’s going to go badly.
A lot of people will barely put up with MTL on free sites, and there are more than enough properly translated works out there as alternatives that there isn’t a reason to put up with bad translation. I can see the service bombing pretty badly. But if it doesn’t bomb we then see a justification for flooding the market with lower quality works.
I don’t think AI translation is at a point where this doesn’t look like a lose-lose situation. It’s just testing to see whether the market can be enshittified in a profitable way.
On the one hand, Ina would be a great roommate in that she never leaves her room.
On the other hand, I’m pretty sure I recall a room cleaning stream in which a certain priestess basically just spent a ton of time throwing cans that were lying around into a bag, which doesn’t sound great.
I went from being glad this goofy-looking game is getting some attention to realizing I wasn’t one of those 5000 wishlists already. Oops.
Game looks like it’ll be a fun little experience, I’m looking forward to it!
I had to double take that scene. I was like cool, head flies off, hope he’s dead, chainsaw devil’s here… wait a minute…
Yeah, it’s not a no, it’s basically a “not our problem, everyone does their own thing.” Which is fair, but they normally have no problems loading extra work on public servants even though it’s not their job, so it’s a bit moot.
What makes Alberta the most unfriendly? Like, I wouldn’t be surprised, but I don’t recall any major differences between the recent legislation in any of those three provinces.
This sounds much more like the reason. 12pm-3pm, plus some time before and after to prep and commute and stuff, plus these things often run long in my experience… It easily becomes most of the afternoon. If you have anything else you need to do that day it becomes a fairly big deal.
There actually is a Rick and Morty short in this style and with this director from a few years back.
It’s not exactly peak Rick and Morty or anything, but it’s so surreal and weird that it’s kind of enthralling: https://youtu.be/-kdltv_CSHE
I read a couple volumes of the LN and it was goofy fun. Nothing mind blowing, but a fun take on the isekai formula. It got even better once it got out of its own way and acknowledged how silly it all was, because really there’s nothing evil about this dude or his empire at all.
