I get that, but you’re also not quite getting the full picture with this specific instance. The community on Reddit has been waiting for Silksong so long that they have been over-analyzing every single game convention for years to see if we’re going to get a release date, and had a heated debate over whether or not a blood sacrifice of a member of the community would bring the release. They’re a little crazy over there.
Kate. It’s a movie on Netflix where an assassin is slipped polonium on a job in Tokyo and has a night to track down the ones responsible before she dies. It’s a fun movie.
It kind of felt like the game was trying to tackle language as a barrier to entry in the same way that Tunic did, but ultimately failed to properly teach. The first language is learnable, but most of the others had extremely frustrating attempts to get the last few words. It fortunately tells you when the word is correct in your pocket dictionary, but if you haven’t encountered the item it references yet, you have to assign it what you think it is, rely on it, and figure out what exactly is wrong.
I get that it’s a puzzle game, but there’s supposed to be a moment of “Oh, that’s how it works” euphoria when you finish a puzzle, not a consistent “Seriously? I got it this wrong again?” and an encouragement for random trial and error due to frustration. It’s cool that there’s different languages, based on different existing language structures, but it felt like the execution of unraveling it fell flat.

I picked up Monster Train to scratch my Slay the Spire itch, and it’s good, but it still hasn’t quite done for me what STS has. I’ve got (apparently) 400 hours between two different platforms, and no other deck builder has quite measured up. I’d expect you could pick it up for dirt cheap on the 19th, and I’d strongly recommend it.
I got the first game for free and was blown away by how good it was for such a simple premise. I can’t wait for this one, I’ll probably be picking it up day one.
4’33" is intended to be the length of the song, four minutes and thirty-three seconds. But if you read it instead as notation for feet and inches, it’s four feet, thirty-three inches, or six-foot-nine. And 69 happens to be the funny sex number.
It would require a customer queue. Honestly, I’d settle for even just a system like Potionomics, where you have external factors that affect generic prices for supplies and sales, and can try to haggle for a higher price. There’s no roadmap for the game though, so we don’t even know how much of it’s going to change aside from “more trinkets” and “quality of life changes.”
I had this on my list up until it released in early access. The concept was what caught my eye, but there’s just not much there.
There is no fail state. A customer appears, says they want something, and if you don’t have it in your inventory yet (or even if you just don’t want to sell to them), they will wait literally forever. You can’t haggle with them over price, even though you can say no to their price. They just say they’ll wait, and they will. Forever. No new customers will come.
The game has a set amount of time slots per day to clean and discover new items, but because you don’t have any requirement to sell, customers never leave, and you have an endless supply of trinkets to work with, the time slots mean nothing.
And the game’s gameplay of uncovering trinkets is fun at first, until you realize that you won’t get anything really different. It’s going to be the same repetitive puzzle over and over, and then scrubbing every inch of it to clean it until you finish. It could have been somewhat zen, but it takes so long for each one that it’s just frustrating.
I know the game just came out and it’s unfinished, but it’s in a state they feel comfortable asking for money for. It’s fun for maybe the length of the demo, but I didn’t even make it to the end of that without uninstalling it. There’s just not enough in the game, and zero pressure or management.
I like collecting achievements, so if it’s a requirement, I usually do. The last one was Silent Hill 2, which kind of doesn’t count. You start with nothing, and the only difference is that items appear when they weren’t there on the first run. I’ve done the FromSoft Soulsborne games, but Elden Ring had so much content that I had to take a long break before going back. The ones I’ve enjoyed most though are games that have upgrade systems that you can’t complete without a ton of grinding, like Ratchet and Clank (plus NG+ has the RYNO). They just can’t be super-long. I’m probably never replaying Persona 5, just because of the time commitment.
Nier Replicant is a remake of Nier, which came out in 2010. Nier Automata is a sequel to that 2010 game.
Serious answer, I’m not sure why someone would run a VM to run just a container inside the VM, aside from the VM providing volumes (directories) to the VM. That said, VMs are perfectly capable of running containers, and can run multiple containers without issue. For work, our Gitlab instance has runners that are VMs that just run containers.
Fun answer, have you heard of Docker in Docker?
It’s kind of wild that I’ve seen trailers and posts for Lollipop Chainsaw’s remaster, but the first time I hear about a Shadows of the Damned remaster is buried in the last paragraph of a dev interview.
The DLC is a prequel. The history of Krat is told primarily through flashbacks, so it’s possible the DLC adds additional context. That said, the game definitely didn’t feel incomplete. Full story, complete world, and fleshed-out gameplay. If you like soulslikes, you’d probably enjoy this one too.
