Agreed!

AndresPlays🎮🦇 @andresplays.bsky.social · 4h

I love to hear that! I really vouch for all of these games :)

I've had my gaming laptop for a couple of months now. And I have to say I love it. The flexibility it provides is unparalleled. There is some tinkering to do and not all games perform as well as they should, but in regard to the endless library available, I couldn't be happier. Now I just need time.

A Souls...borne? 💀 you win lol

AndresPlays🎮🦇 @andresplays.bsky.social · 7h

Thanks for sharing! It was indeed an idea I had been thinking about, and just as it is difficult to describe a game in writing, it becomes a little bit harder to describe in a podcast haha. You can have 40%.

AndresPlays🎮🦇 @andresplays.bsky.social · 7h

I'm sure he's writing it down somewhere 😭

AndresPlays🎮🦇 @andresplays.bsky.social · 7h

When I first played Journey it also changed the way I saw games honestly. But there's so much out there as well that should be described by their own merits! Well said.

AndresPlays🎮🦇 @andresplays.bsky.social · 7h

Thank you so much for reminding me of Europa. I still need to play it and it is definitely a peaceful experience from what I played in the demo. Love your vids.

That's always great to hear man thanks! And yeah I always make an effort in whatever it is I write.

Proud of you!!

AndresPlays🎮🦇 @andresplays.bsky.social · 7h

Haha anytime bud thanks for gracing us with such top tier content as usual!!

AndresPlays🎮🦇 @andresplays.bsky.social · 8h

But ManchildMedia you loved Herdling 😭 tho yes, I really loved your comparison. It's essy to fall back on well known phrases, but are they actually useful, or setting us up for failure? Thanks for reading.

Oh god yes!! So glad you got the point quickly. To make sure I wasn't making stuff up I googled "Journey-esque" Journey-like" and wouldn't you know it, found several results.

It's possible to mention if a game has metroidvania elements, but we should try to be as descriptive as we can.

AndresPlays🎮🦇 @andresplays.bsky.social · 8h

Bruh yes! I wanted to write a piece called "In Defense of Jin Sakai" but then I was like, nah. I do agree with you tho.
