Incredible video, Derek. When that CGI demon came up my jaw dropped and it did not come back up for a full 3 minutes after. Just an amazing reveal in a very in-depth rabbit hole.

That's wild. Maybe Nintendo is afraid of comitting too much to overhead? I think it's perm. The only downside to Forza H5's system is that discovery is tricky. Outside of most popular you tend to have to do keyword guesswork, where you hope people tagged their own creations properly and in English.

This might be more exciting than finding all the itansha wraps on Forza for obscure 1960s mini cars.

Such a cool video, thank you for this. Wrapped up watching last night. Made me realize that someone at Xeen must have been a big fan, and wish that it had been a bigger feature of Paranormasight. But good to know where the probable origin is, and what must have been a huge inspiration.

That's such a great line. Good reminder for all crafts.

I think in general, both narrative and gameplay elements should allow the player to make informed decisions. Not necessarily the "x will y" kind but the ones where you would understand positive or negative implications through the context of why they exist. Systems which imply a connected world.

That's an adorable Twin Victim

Like, totally.

This was, to a T, the exact experience. Improved systems (Judges notwithstanding) and a total disposal on expectations.

Like, they weren't bad changes, but as a follow-up to what came before, inherently disappointing. Which was unfortunate because it's otherwise solid! But it wasn't FFT2.

Ah, to be so content about the contents of my skull becoming soup. If only.

The one thing I can confidently say that anime legit taught me is that JP colds ain't nothing to mess around with. Sorry to hear you are under the weather.

Realizing all my favorite strategy games share the same framing device as being about historical events being retold through recovered narratives of those that were present at their occasion.
