when the american dream is "make youreself rich no matter the cost" it feels pretty much baked in. I appreciate my criticism is rich considering the horrors my country has done.

@abcbtommi.bsky.social Saw this and thought you'd appreciate it.

What you want is the genuine intelligence of a thinking brain rather than the current form of google which will "yes and" all your questions.

Perfect, just the kind of answer I was looking for. I keep eyeing up the original to give it a try but the ps5 ver just aint dropping in price much.

I need to ask, is it fun? I tried to watch someone playing it (which I know is not the same thing) and everything they were doing which was not combat seemed really tedious in an Ubeesoft way so I thought I'd ask you.

It's a bad ending but you're right in that it's satisfying. They're all satisying endings in their own way but the true good ending hits really well. Looking forward to you're thoughts on the others!

So we've learned the victim has signed a new life insurance policy and the wife has a gun and is the sole inheitor. Maybe this means!
And you fill in a sentence with keywords that completes "maybe the wife killed him for the insurance!'.
That's a simple example though.

No no, it's more all the conversation bits of AA. Where you do all of Y's talk subjects which then unlocks some new dialog for X. Or you examine the 6-10 different interactive objects which then does new dialog. It's functionable just not overly taxing.
The summation at the end is where it goes-

Well the investigation angle is very much a "have you talked to everyone and hit all the talking points available" and ends in a short "fill in the missing words to find a motive" puzzle so don't expect something too complex.

I'd maybe say watch until the first case is done and see if you're down with it and the characters/ideas. I would say that the ending really makes it for me while for the rest of it I was muddlingly ok for what was basically ace attorney meets scooby doo. You might find it irritating.

Read with the intonation of someone polite from a period novel who has, for example, dropped something and doesn't want to use overt profanities.

The actual gameplay feels like it needed a touch more to it but overall a fantastic experience. Could also do without the main vocal track but minor quibbles.

Urban Myth Dissolution Center. Initially I was not overly taken by the game aside from it's great visuals and music since my tolerance for occult things is low and the cases proceed with slightly baffling unrealness. That said its conclusion was very well done and completely sold me on the game.

I thought there's something on the main menu that tells you vaguely what to do?

The Long Walk Home. Personal artwork from the archives. Created in 2013. Was it a good year? Cant really remember.

Malicious as in torture porn saw type vibes I was meaning.

That scene with the mask and the arm in sh:f done from a western dev would either be a scene done by someone malicious or the person would be ridiculous oot brainwashed/religious fervor.
It's fucking horrible in sh:f because Hinako partly allows it to happen albeit for bad reasons.

Reading your takes and then waiting for noi to come along and post "goty so far" and you to lose your mind.

(I know this is unlikely as you two are broadly in sync with each other.)

Still watching playthroughs of sh:f and the voice acting especially for Hinako are absolutely superb.

@thetitsofmio.bsky.social Happy birthday! Hope you have a great big day.

Yeah that's the one. Pleasingly it has the same moves from before just adds more of them and quicker. But then by phase 2 it starts adding enviromental attacks as well.
It hurts most when dodging and you run into the boss who has just moved to your new dodging location.
Intense but satisfying.
