I'm gonna start a weekly Sunday evening thread where we all talk about what we've been playing the past week.
I have been doing a replay of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice this week. It's one of my favorite games and I was surprised how much muscle memory Ive retained for most of the major boss fights.
Murder by Numbers:
Playing through the extras. It's just picross. I think it's pretty fun.
Clannad Side Stories:
Trash, as expected. We also have some fun new reactionary opinions that didn't get covered in base Clannad: "not graduating high school means you're going to be a failure in life" and "your wife, who you admit you verbally abused, and were too busy with work to be with on her deathbed, actually always loved you and says she had a good life with you". Reading/watching Clannad is an impressive look at how much of a boomer it's possible for a guy in his late 20's/early 30's to be.
Journey
When I finished, a friend of mine I was in call with remarked that I never ran into another player, which is the one thing that really makes this game so special. I certainly didn't feel the hype, but I obviously didn't have the intended experience.
Fatal Twelve:
I think it's a good premise hampered by uninteresting prose. I played this company's most recent game, UsoNatsu, a few weeks ago, and that shows some significant improvement from Fatal Twelve.
Flowers: Le Volume sur Ete:
I picked this up because it is the absolute favorite series (the first 2 games, at least) of one of my friends, and I'm honestly a bit concerned for them after having played it. I feel like this game is pretty obviously depicting sexual harassment while not really understanding that's the territory it's in. It makes for an extremely uncomfortable read.
