Finished the Netflix Cowboy Bebop show. Thought it was kinda nice, all in all. Weird how much I had forgotten about the original show.

Depends on how slow it is. Is it as slow as Punisher, which makes you fall asleep? Or is it just more "down to earth" slow?

I mean, if it's an Urban Mech, it was just a joke anyways.

Big props to the writing team who always manages to top their last stupid from which we thought it's already as stupid as it gets. I watched ep1 and 2 from Cowboy Bebop and tbh, I like it. Haven't seen the anime in a million years, but I remember a few details here and there. So far I'm not upset about it, even though it feels really cheesy at times.

Maybe I can get you a free copy of my project, but sadly not of the base game.

I mean, do we care about the others?

Is it really a cliffhanger, though? I thought it's pretty obvious what's happening next. Lots of boom, but all the characters there are essential, so once the next show (season? chapter?) comes out, it'll continue with that civil war thing. Oddly enough, I could swear the last 3 episodes were a lot shorter.. but after checking the timestamps, they are still 40 mins. Sucks there isn't more now.

What does that mean?

Watched the first episode of Wheel of Time but fell asleep in the middle of it. : x

A little bit, but also not really. We are "external contractors" of sorts. That said, 82% positive on Steam. So yay, I guess.

Wish it were that simple. Lots of people qq already over the current price, and IMO we low-balled it already specifically because of that.

I couldn't even make it through season 2 episode 1. Still can't believe that they keep cranking out this garbage.

Sadly there is not. But depending on how well the sales go, we might add more camel related stuff in the future. We'll see.

Today is release day.

More Bloodborne yesterday. Finished the Living Failures - wasn't really good, wasn't really bad. Made it through the fight with barely any hitpoints left. Did Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower right after and man, that is probably one of the most fun battles I had recently. Really nice, and I was actually sad to finish this one, because I really like to replay it. Also, awesome new clothes, probably going to roll with them till the end of the game now.

Them not mentioning who is working on the game is not a good thing in my book. They probably fear some huge backlash .. why else hide it?

The best thing about covid is that you can blame almost every delay on it.

I'm in episode 4 right now. After the first episode I was a bit meh, but it has gotten better now. Truth told, I already expect some weird / odd ending, because that's my experience with K-Dramas so far. Then again, Because This Is My First Life felt pretty good all around and it didn't had the need to add in some OH MY GOD twist in the end.

After 20+ attempts I finally managed to beat Ludwig, The Holy Blade. Was a huge pain and it cost me at least 15 insight. In the end I kinda just won by accident, because for some reason I've managed to land 2 visceral attacks on him before he was able to burn me to the ground (a matter of seconds). Thing is, the game can be easy if you are able to manage all it's mechanics ... parry and visceral attacks make it *a lot* easier. The problem is just that I am often unable to perform them in time. It's not even the input lag, but some actions don't want to trigger or trigger with delay. Example: I need to heal asap, but I also need to gtfo. What am I doing? I'll jump back quickly and heal up.. but the healing didn't work (I was still in the last frame of the jump probably) and in this split second I realize the boss will hit me again, so I try to jump once more, but then suddenly the healing triggers and I'm stuck in place and get hit ... Happens all the time. Kinda wish there would be some extra training mode, where you can just do stuff like dodge and parry without loading times and long walkways.

My project was just announced for release on november 18th:

I thought the drawing style is really good in JoJo. One of the fav things about it for me, even.

I mean, there is a reason why MS bought Bethsoft.

Yeah, I raged about it a lot when I started playing. Often the generic mobs are tougher and a much bigger deal than the actual boss fights. Then you suddenly have a boss that just keeps wrecking you like hell. The worst mobs are probably the brain suckers, right up there with winter lanterns(?). Really making me angry.

I mean, this version of Heresy is also more a throwback to the early days of Pretty Hate Machine, which were very different than the later stuff. Now I really wish he'd be going back to some of that, because the last few releases didn't really wow me anymore.. and I was a huge NIN fan who bought pretty much every release, even the weird Japan stuff.

I think they outsourced it to some whatever studio and then didn't bother with it anymore. The management in charge of overseeing the project and then handling the QA either had no experience or simply didn't gave a damn about it. Looks to me like a way too common pattern when it comes to big studios. Kinda doubt they had big deadline pressure.. Pretty sure their management thought this game is good to release and now it backfired.
