I tried playing Blasphemous recently and had to drop it in a couple hours. I might’ve stuck with it had I tried it when I was younger but I’ve discovered that nowadays I don’t have the patience to play games that require you to beat your head against a brick wall until it breaks. So many frustrating enemy placements and insta-kill spikes, the movement is slow, the combat is unsatisfying, I just didn’t feel like I had much incentive to continue playing (minus the art style which is absolutely gorgeous).

I use YouTube all the time and was legitimately thinking of subscribing to premium. Guess I’m sticking to ReVanced lol

oh jeez, didn’t realize it’s been that long!

I’ve been out of the custom ROM scene for a while, is Cyanogenmod still a thing? that shit was like magic on my Galaxy S4. I remember it getting really slow like a few months into having it only because of how damn bloated the OS was before flashing CM onto there.

Exactly!!! How are people just giving him a pass all the sudden? Have we forgotten who’s behind these apps and their track record with dealing with user data?

I still can’t make it through any of The Witcher games. Smooth and satisfying gameplay is super important for me to enjoy a game, and The Witcher has always felt slow, clunky, unintuitive, and super menu-heavy. I’m sure the story is great! But I just can’t get past its gameplay.

This might sound weird but Dark Souls 1 does give me a certain level of comfort, not sure what that says about me lol. I haven’t played it in a while but back then, creating new builds and trying out new weapons was really fun, and I got very accustomed to the game’s mechanics and it’s general progression and pathing. I could run through the whole game without even thinking about it. I’ll still go back to it every now and again and it still gives me that comfortable nostalgic feeling.

I really love That Trav Guy, he makes super interesting and entertaining videos on the history behind and gameplay of games and game series, his MegaMan X6 video got me to finally finish the game after struggling with it since I was like 6. I also follow him on Twitter and he just seems like a swell guy!
