This is one of the few sequels I’m genuinely excited for. Constantine was such a good movie.

Still trying to get through Animal Well. The cat disc keeps tripping me up as I need to make it to the final flame with the fake disc.

Also picked up Tears of the Kingdom again, trying to complete all the shrines.

What can they do? How about making the cellular models modular? 3G goes bust? Swap the modem for a 4G one next time the car is in for service.

Solasta actually plays pretty well with an old Steam Controller and the right controller mapping, but I can see where you’re coming from on a controller without a touchpad input.

Not here to comment on whether you are right (because you are) but more to report the whiplash of realising 20 years ago is still in the 2000s. Mentally, 20 years ago puts something early nineties to me.

Personally, I think the first golden age ended with the decline of the shareware model that was used by many of the classics in the nineties.

Sure, it wasn’t the decline of shareware that ended it, but de decline of the model went hand in hand with the rising cost of development and longer development timeframes that ended the games boom of the nineties.

That’s my take at least. Might just be an old man with rose tinted (shareware) glasses.

HORI has been around for a good whole, and they make what are arguably the best aftermarket Nintendo switch controllers.

I think this is still the most played game on my Switch. I need to stay far, far, away from this if my productivity is to survive.

I’m looking forward to this. Lego games always seem to deliver on capturing the spirit of the original work while adding some (often much needed) levity and charm. Having played HZD and having struggled to get through Forbiden West, I am looking forward to their take on the franchise.

Wasn’t the original quote by Nigel Powers about the Dutch?

The video also includes this spin. Sounds like they tried to do an interesting retelling of her recruitment into the Carrington Institute, making her a double agent or something. I’m intrigued.

“Fighting solves everything” - These guys are really out there thinking they can punch the genie of social progress back into the bottle. If this were a parody people would say it’s too ridiculous to be true.
