I am so torn on a FF6 3D remake. On the one hand I think it has huge potential - and is way more interesting than an FF9 remake (does anyone seriously think that game actually needs to be remade? It’s fine as it is!). But on the other I think FF6 is so spectacular in its current iteration that I also don’t want to fuck with it. The desire to remake FF7 was obvious - early 3D games have aged horribly and look like ass with modern eyes. But much like Chrono Trigger FF6 is in that peak era of pixel art and as so many indie games keep demonstrating year after year: pixel art is timeless.

Tbh I’m not really all that into the way he sounds either, although I don’t know how much of that is related to how he’s written and acted. If we’re just talking about the tone of voice I guess it’s okay. But I’ve never really been one to go for the hunks, you know. A swelling bicep is nice and all but doesn’t really move me much.

Now, a lanky tortured poet on the other hand… Something like Finn Andrews is a bit more my speed.

Any day now, right? Surely…

I can’t believe you’re into Halsin haha. I don’t know how you manage to make a sex crazed man-bear insufferably boring but by gods, they did it!

Yes, and to add: hetvägg is the precursor to the modern semla, which is probably pretty much a national dish here now.

The traditional hetvägg is equally if not more delicious though, although quite a bit more involved to make.

Those are actually beautiful. Would sell like hotcakes during the Art Nouveau period I bet.

The DLC truck will forever be parked in that backalley, never to be moved 😭

Anything you make in a cheap filter drip coffee machine is going to have an upper bound of how well it can taste. It’s a convenient method to brew larger quantities of coffee at once, but not really an ideal way of getting the best tasting coffee.

You might want to try a more medium roast instead of a dark roast and see if that tastes less like dirt to you, but a lot of cheap coffee is going to be dark roast because it hides the taste of the (shitty) beans used.

Curious, the premise of this joke seems to be that only FromSoft games exist and yet Tenchu is strangely missing from the “Do you have taste? - Yes” section.

Bullet Hell is a thing already, Bullet Heaven is the new genre pioneered by Vampire Survivors. It replaces "Vampire Survivors-like’.

Some of the removals are great (you shouldn’t be able to tag your game “Well-Written” or “Masterpiece”) but some I don’t understand. But I can’t say I have encyclopedic knowledge of all the tags that exist so maybe most of the removed ones are already covered elsewhere.

Also yes, Bullet Heaven is a great genre name.

Love the turned over orange basket giving some life to the composition.

Don’t feel and about it it’s a common mistake, all based on the fact that the second game was also just called “Most Wanted” - to every fan’s great chagrin. It’s why I’m always (to the point of annoyance) making sure to spell out Most Wanted (2005) whenever I talk about it.

Most Wanted (2005) is a masterpiece for sure. On the one hand it’s one of the games I most want (hah) to see a remake for, but on the other it’s so steeped in early 00s that maybe a remake can’t possibly recreate the magic, regardless of how faithful it is.

Still, playing it with modern graphics instead of that yellow piss filter would be amazing.

Coffee and Cigarettes is so damn good!

Hey it’s, his words not mine. He talked about it as recently as February.

Expected, but man. Still hard to believe. Somehow he’s been there a decade, and yet it feels both like he just arrived and that he’s been there forever. Very weird feeling, I guess COVID being smack dab in the middle of his tenure would do that.

I assume an international job is up next? I get the impression he’s not got another long megaproject in him and he always said he wanted to do international football before he retires.

Have fun while playing Soulslikes?

What are these strange and unfamiliar words coming out of your mouth hole?

Yeah it’s a very funny game, despite also being serious a lot of the time. It’s an impressive balancing act in the writing.

The music is by a band called Sea Power, which Robert Kurvitz managed to convince make the OST! Some absolute bangers on that soundtrack, every time those horns hit when you step out of the Whirling…

That’s the way to go about it for sure, I haven’t been on /All for like two years I think. A carefully curated /Subscribed as home feed is the best way to do it.
