in light of me beginning Yakuza of the Caribbean: Starring Captain Jack Majima, I thought “what have I completed so far this year in terms of video games?”
So far this year I’ve completed:
• Huniepop
• Huniepop 2: Double Date
• Stellar Blade
• Another Crab’s Treasure
• Pokemon Emerald (now I gotta find a new airplane game)
• Balatro Golden Needle challenge
• GFL2 Normal Mode (so far… when they releasing new chapters?)
How about you?
(I keep this list in my notes, btw)
I asked around if there was an actually good porn-ish game and huniepop kept coming up. It was good for a porn-ish game, I imagine a moniker that genre will never escape.
I played and completed Aston: Tears of the Earth early this year. Probably for the 4th time. I can’t get enough of that game.
This might be a dumb question but how accessible is Another Crab’s Treasure for people who aren’t super into action games? I was wondering if it could be a good introduction to the soulslike genre for my gf
I finished Ghost of Tsushima and Deus Ex Mankind Divided so far, both pretty flawed but well made, dense games, had a good time with em.
Are you a pc gamer? My suggestion is Elden ring using wemod cheats like double damage and double defense. It a fun way to tune in the difficulty to how you’re feeling in the moment. It can be set to any multiplier within a .1 increment
whoa didn’t know that was a thing, that sounds fun, I would be curious to play with that myself. haven’t gotten around to playing Elden Ring yet but I’ll keep it in mind.
To begin with it’s pretty forgiving as these games go - plenty of room for error and easily exploitable moves and abilities - but the game also has an accessibility menu where you can fine tune things like damage dealt and damage taken. Would make a great introduction imo
All I’ve finished this year are King’s Field (goated) and Arzette (cute little game). I gotta get back to Terranigma.
Also I’m currently playing Ys Origins and Lost Records. Most of my year so far has been spent playing different outrun versions and recent fighting games.
I track this on Backloggd as well. Here’s where I’m at:
Attack of the Friday Monsters (2013) - 3DS
Mouthwashing (2024) - Steam Deck
Xenosphere (2024) - PC
Still Wakes the Deep (2024) - PS5
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown (2024) - Switch
Persona 3 FES (2008) - PS2 (I played most of this last year)
The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes (2021) - PS5
I have also been blasting through UFO 50 games, I am currently at 39 cherries and here’s the ones I’ve done this year (mostly in Feb, PoP took up a lot of Jan):
I dialed everything down to easy mode because i’m terribad at souls likes. I was thoroughly entertained! It happened side by side my easy mode Stellar Blade playthrough. Each had their quirks and god help me switching between those control schemes lol
