Question of the week:
What did you like most from the recent TGA 2024, assuming you watched it or know of the announcements?
and
What did you enjoy most from the year 2024 in terms of gaming?
Well, a lot of bad news has happened politically IRL, but let’s make this thread a good one, and enjoy ourselves here!
currently playing ys x: nordics. in the last chapter, so, might finish it soon. really enjoyed my time with it lol.
also playing some crimsonland, used to play that game a lot as a kid.
wanna play memories of celceta (ys 4) next. but might also give metal gear rising a shot, because M E M E S . i also wanna give dragon quest 3 a go too, idk why. maybe because i missed out on the classic jrpg era and was thrust straightforward into the deconstructionist/2deep4me era?
there are some other games that i have on my library that i wanna try too.
i will say however that it was nice and exciting to hear that okami’s getting a sequel. (wish they’d port okamiden to pc too though)
I got into RDR and Metal Gear solely because of memes, best decision I’ve ever made.
These 2 are like BB/BCS of games in terms of it.
what memes do RDR have?
lmao these look like youtube video thumbnails
Yea, they’re thumbnail memes with that specific letters, I think it started with video with BRAIN INJURY? one and then it went off, it was used to no end on r/okbuddychicanery.
“deconstructionist/2deep4me era?”
I wish we’d get out of this era entirely. Might be that we’re already seeing the end of it, but it can’t come fast enough. To be honest, a lot of “rethought what you think of the goody-two-shoes plot or goody-two-shoes cast” is very boring to me because it doesn’t say anything beyond “What you actually liked as a child was a lie.” What type of message is that? Some may say it’s “mature” but I don’t see it. It just promotes mindless cynicism.
