Very tired.
From UK but lives in Japan.
Yeah, Captain Wayne is bloody fantastic! Like a late 70s / very early 80s anime with the slapstick and semi-adult humour that era brought to ridiculous cartoons. Not only is it funny, but fun as heck to play!

Possibly one of the most annoying things with the titles I got via keys off stores (legal mind) was they were mostly region locked, but English options still existed.

I find region locking odd. I guess it is to do with prices more than language these days.

Adding old keys and using the last of the gift card money that sort of needed to be spent, I think I've gained about 15 titles today. The amount of things I've wanted to play for so long is finally starting to become within my grasp. So weird having Robocop, Trepang and God of War in the collection.

If I played Captain Wayne last year, I swear it would have been a top 5 on the shooter list easily. Absurdly fun!

Don't worry, Nvidia have you covered.

Even when the AI bubble pops, they will have all the GPUs at datacentres, meaning you don't need to own your computer! Just rent it from Nvidia at the low cost of $80 a month!

*massive latency included.

Last rays if the sun if 2025 buggering off over the hill.

It is funny how much this year was in stark opposition to last year. Last year it felt like nothing changed much. This year was a whole different ball game as Japan went from anxious stability to paranoid flailing.

Yes, the anglosphere has been a bit messy, but Japan usually misses that. Not 2025.

Good: like the original and Boltgun, a very good Space Marine fantasy. Very chunky.

Bad: low FoV making the majority of the game me looking at Titus mostly.

I suck: couldn't adjust to the pad controls mentally. I kept hitting B to dodge, but that is grenade here. X being use. Odd.

Anticipating it!

Oddly enough that was one of the first stress tests I gave the cpu. Put god mode on, step on to the edge of the platform and wave my fist to wake everything up.

Lowest it dropped to was about 47fps.

I thought it was damn fun for the short time I played it.

I know folks have said it is a "kingslike", but it is way more soulsy imo.
