Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (11th October)

Continuing with Silksong. I don’t know whether to beat the final boss and start a new 100 percent or speedrun playthrough, or collect everything I can to still try to get 100 percent.

I’ll also continue to grind Abyss Mode in Rivals of Aether. The only characters I have left to get to level 10 (outside of Workshop characters) are Clairen, Etalus, Ori, and Shovel Knight.

Re: Fantasy Roguelike 'Absolum' Isn't Out Yet, But It's Already Getting An Animated Series

@OorWullie I do like how this game looks, and I plan on trying it out eventually since I like Dotemu. That being said, I’m getting a little tired of every game (especially indies) trying to ride off of Balatro’s success and be a rougelite or have elements from them. Heck, the new Donkey Kong game now has a rougelike mode with its DLC!

I have nothing wrong with simple, straightforward arcade action like Shredder’s Revenge. Again, I’m excited to try this game, but I just feel like the indie games market is becoming really oversatirated with rougelikes. And this is coming from someone who likes Dead Cells, Enter the Gungeon, and especially Balatro

Re: Poll: Ahead Of Silksong's Release, Are You 'Finally' Playing Hollow Knight?

I tried Hollow Knight in early - mid 2021, but I didn’t quite click with it. Went back to it later that year, and since then, I purchased the game on Switch (both digital and physical), and got all Steam achievements. I recently started a new save file to test out the game when I got my Steam Deck this summer… I probably should go back and replay the game, just so I know what I’m getting into when I inevitably play Silksong.

I will get it on Steam, but if there are physical copies coming for Switch, I will get it in a heartbeat!
