I finally got Joker last night, 30 pulls away from a spark. I have 7k left and two freebies to hope I get Ann. :(

Alright played through the batch, except for Pronty, which wouldn't launch at all. >_> The highlights for me were:

Shady Knight - 1st person action/platforming/parkour. Felt so damn good and satisfying to play. The levels are score-based, on how fast you are, the variety of moves you do, mid-air moves and all of that. Usually not my cup of tea but I can see myself getting invested in it this time

Foregone - A 2D action platformer. Animation, combat, music, environments were all surprisingly good. It has a lot of loot going on if you aren't a fan of that, where you salvage the others and can upgrade the one you like, and some rarer types can drop with added bonuses and damage

The others I tried and thought they were pretty solid are Potion Craft (make your own potions and run a shop!) and Graven, a first person immersive sim. I'll throw Hidden Deep in as a rec, since I felt it wasn't for me but the game itself felt decent for those into that style.

Through the 9th. Highlights upcoming games, their demos, live streams, dev chats, that kind of thing. I'm mainly interested in the demos. I have a small list of ones I'm keen on I can update the topic with later. Thought other interested people could do the same and could have some fun chatting about it.

Ones I'm trying:
Graven
Hidden Deep
Pronty
Hazel Sky
Potion Craft
Trail of Ayash
Sands of Aura
Shady Knight
Foregone

PriConne players should at the very least be doing 3 stamina refills a day, if not 6, for the early part of this game's life. The first 3 each day only cost 40 jewels and they're absolutely worth it if you want to progress quicker, then the next 3 cost 60 jewels and are worth doing early on as well. I did 6 every day during my entire time in the soft-launch and the first couple days of the full launch, then 3 a day since then. Trust me, the extra progress you can make (especially in the Arena) and extra grinding you can do each day make it more than worth it.

Mmm I'm not sure about that for myself, at least while there's not multi-drop event going on. It's been drilled into me to never use gacha currency for stamina.

I honestly don't get how some mfers have 5* characters already, other than spending all their gems on stamina and hard mode refills, or pulling like mad lads and spending all their amulets.

Probably soft launch players. They got a super head start. :(

I dont know why you guys are gear farming when events are your gear farm.

To make progress? o.O We're not going to chill in the same spot in the main story/missions waiting for event, especially when the game beats us over the face with stamina every day anyway.

I dunno why but I feel like I can't play any no-name gachas anymore. It's gotta be from an Anime or Video Game.

All the ones I've really gotten into have been fresh IP ones. Not sure why

Oh man, I can't imagine getting every achievement on that. Grats though lol.

The two Persona 5 banners are detailed in Dragalia Lost now, will definitely go all in on Part 1. Sucks that Part 2 is just Ann on her own, but hopefully it works out. Arsene looks TASTY, though. Goodness.

if you build a game around getting all the mods compatible with this, you've already got like 350 mods...

is that the museum mod? I really want to put that in next time I play Skyrim. I'm wanting to retry Morrowind and replay Oblivion first though, and actually attempt to learn all this ES lore first though.

I don't see what's wrong with being years behind, the servers aren't shared. We get steady content still, I can actually read it for once, and I prefer that over speedrushing to catch up and having no time to do most of the things they're crashing through.

Playing: Ys VIII

I just finished it, that episode was amazing and retroactively makes the previous eps even better.

The Snap opening was great. I could legitimately watch an entire TV series just revolving around Snapped people coming back and the effects of that on everyone's lives. I'm also getting the impression that Wanda didn't just whip up a Vision out of thin air, but that she's...using his actual body...jesus lol.

My favorite is, by far, Oath in Felghana. Superb game. After that it's Seven.

Blasphemous looks right up my alley, how's the difficulty?

It can be challenging, not a walk in the park. I wouldn't put it on the level of the Souls games though, personally.

I can vouch for Cyber Shadow, great game.

I had an eye on it but the reviews today put me off on it. I was going to get it via Game Pass so maybe it's still worth an attempt, but I dunno.

Aah I'm rank 4290 in the Arena! I know for you more experienced folks that's still pretty bad, but for me it's great and I'm happy lol.

I also finally ran out of the stamina for the first time since launch. It was actually stressing me out lol.

It feels like they're just making him into a scapegoat? The creepy pedo account is one thing and it's good they removed him, but the stuff in the game is stuff the whole team gave the greenlight for. It's all of them, not just one person. I think it's more of an eyebrow-raise thing to use the game to get up on their political pedestal. Or at the very least, do it in a very blatant fashion.

---

Playing: Ys VIII

Yeah, not to have you guys misled, like MordecaiRocks said, Yacht only publish this game. The developers are someone else.

How long is it if it's too short?

I beat it in 7 and a half hours, but didn't get all the collectibles. I was 60-something% done.

---

Playing: Ys VIII

It's a short, really fun game available on Game Pass, and I think it's just $15 otherwise, dunno. >_> It does start up fairly easy but in the latter half of the game it had me wanting to tear my hair out, felt really good to finally beat it.

It's compared to Ninja Gaiden, though I've never played those games so I just take everyone else's word for it.

You get to raise bond higher for more story, with more stars at least, but the main story/guild didn't have any stat boosts I could see. Those level 7/8 bond stats are hefty bois.

Oh phew, I was about to go spam the main story like crazy lol. I know what you mean though. Only 2 of my girls have 3* and they finally got their 8th bond yesterday, that was a NICE stat boost. Slowly working on farming others, but I don't have a way to get Miyako's yet. Still only on the 6th set of missions.

Also started the anime back up, I forgot about it after ep 3. I'm very much in a Priconne mood.

I hate shards if they're part of a mechanic where you have to keep pulling the character in the gacha to get more, but the way Priconne does it I don't mind at all. Especially when I can farm shards to get characters without the gacha. That's pretty based imo. I'M COMING, SAREN!

I liked her in Crazy Rich Asians but I'm not sure how I feel about her so far being in this one. I don't think it'll ruin it for me or anything like that so I'll go in open-minded.
