I wonder what game stories benefit from a bit of challenge.

Like, I feel like The Last of Us benefits from a little bit of challenge to drive home the anxiety and cleverness of the characters.

I love the combat in the game. I think I played it on normal. I wouldn’t recommend anything easier. I feel like everything would die too easily.

Early Resident Evil games were essentially horizontal Metroidvania. Open world makes sense.

The US had virtually no one staying home.

Can you explain what you mean by this? I assume you mean people forced to stay home by the federal government.

That’s huge information and explains the recent news. Thanks.

It was 3. But IIRC, it was the first 360 game to have multiple discs.

It seems like podcasts are their main product now. And that should be staying for the moment. That’s what I listen to. I don’t watch their videos anymore, and I haven’t in quite a while.

I have no problem with them standing by that it doesn’t need any sales and is already a reasonable price. But saying it’s out of respect for those that already bought it is just a bs excuse.

I just finished Spider-Man Miles Morales. So I’m gonna be starting Spider-Man 2 soon.

I’ve seen ADL referenced way too many times as a legitimate source of information. That’s gonna stick with me for a long while.

I believe the original is just PS5 enhanced, similar to running it on a PS4 Pro. But it’s still a PS4 game running on the PS5.

I don’t know the ins and outs. But most games like that have an upgrade that makes them into actual PS5 games (like you can only play it through the SSD for example).

No

It seems more like a PS5 Upgrade which it never got before. AFAIK you can even upgrade for $10 if you have the original.

It’s not even a puzzle! It’s just waiting!

I mean, aren’t they just saying they have to promise bribes aren’t impacting their decisions while confirming they can definitely use official resources for unofficial reasons?

Seems like it’s just codifying the wrong things.

I’ve been play Theatrhythm Final Bar Line since beating Final Fantasy 16. Next I’m either playing Spider-Man Miles Morales or Stranger of Paradise.

Final Fantasy VIII, Half-Life 2, and Halo 4 were those games for me. Absolutely blew me away.

ABSOLUTELY! I do want to clarify that when I say that I question how severe it is, I don’t mean to minimalize it.

ADL has pretty consistently exaggerated numbers. So when I see 4000% increase, I don’t believe it. They absolutely include Israeli government criticisms.

But I do expect that there’s extreme increases, in the same way there has been increases in Islamophobia. Probably more. The incidents are real and cannot be ignored.

I just do not trust what the news is putting out when it relies on subjective information or an outside source. This has honestly been the sloppiest news I’ve witnessed in my life.

I’ve seen a lot of reporting on antisemitism increasing. And I’m sure it is. But shit like this and the fact that I’ve seen ADL referenced twice now makes me really question how severe it is.

So do I. Why? Because I can.
