Video Game General 6.5: Now with more surprise mechanics

This is interesting. Michael Burry, one of the Big Short guys, recently went long on GameStop because “the majority of stores are cash flow positive”. I wonder how far ahead he’s looking.

I see it as Collectibles is driving away business
As well as GS disregard for customers

some more dark synthwave/electronic/metal/video game OST sounding music. These albums are “name your price” so you can get them for a dollar

finally approaching the end of trails in the sky 3 at first i didn’t know what to think of it being mostly a dungeon crawler but it turns out it really works for this game. it basically a greatest hits of the sky saga. the best part is fighting all the people you heard were badasses but never got to do anything. the butler really surprised me more than cassius.

Wasteland 2 is free.

A21 surprisignly looks good in Xenoverse, especially considering how fucking ugly that game is. I really hope if there’s a Xenoverse 3 they take a good look at the engine/lighting they’re using and make some changes, because by god the shading for character models is terrible, everything is super oversaturated, and it’s like there’s this weird bloom enabled around them at all times. Facial animations could also use an improvement

Naughty Dog and Sony announce that all the money from their Jax and Daxter x Limited Run Games collab that happened earlier this year is being donated to various charities

The charities are

  • K9 for Warriors
  • Child’s Play
  • Surfrider Foundation
  • LGBT Center of Los Angeles
  • Able Gamers
  • DAGERS

The only ones I’ve never heard of are Surfrider Foundation and DAGERS. So I did some google-fu

Surfrider Foundation is a charity that builds community pools, takes part in local lake/river/beach clean ups and sends volunteers to low income areas to help repair Water filtration systems.

DAGERS is a charity to help disabled gamers get their opinions out to game developers and publishers in hopes to make their games more disabled and handicapped gamer accessible

The battle system in Indivisble is straight crack. Always loved when RPGs more action oriented twist to it. Not mad the stole Valkyrie Profile’s system

Prolly why I like the handheld Mario & Luigi titles so much, they keep you on your toes
