finally picked up cassette beasts and ive been having a blast. the gen5 pokemon look isn’t my vibe, but it scratches the itch that the last few pokemon haven’t
Against the Storm. Sooooo good. City builders are not necessarily my favorite but ATS is for sure one of my favorite games.
Great game. It reminds me of Warcraft 3, but without having enemy armies destroy my base - I was never good at the fighting but enjoyed base building so this is just in my wheel house. And it’s great that you can use multiple strategies to win. I’m more into satisfying everyones needs as opposed to exploration based run. You?
I would have disagreed with your last statement/question until playing ATS. The way you discover the glades - which opens up large building areas - is more than enough exploration to fulfill that need. At first I was a little disappointed in no combat, but I found that strategy plus relaxing (but with excitement) was a very viable combination. Especially since achieving a relaxing gaming experience with excitement is so rare. And in 99% of games I turn the music off either right away or once it’s repeated enough times which is usually within 10-20 hours. But I leave the music on in ATS, between it and the rain it’s quite relaxing for a video game. Shit I want to play it now haha
I’ve finally sat down and beat the first Psychonauts game, in anticipation for the sequel. What a gem, I’m glad I did! Can’t wait to dive into 2.
Side note, I know Steam got the easier, patched version of Meat Circus and that still kicked my ass for a good handful of tries. Hell of a difficulty spike for a game that’d been really forgiving right up to that point, apparently failing either the escort section or the platforming gauntlet used to mean losing a life? I’d probably have watched the ending on yt at that point lol. As it is, I found it needlessly frustrating and mildly annoying but definitely doable.
I loved the first game, but didn’t try the second one yet. I don’t really know what I’m waiting for 😀
