Video Game General 6.5: Now with more surprise mechanics

Alternatively, go with a shirt that has Winnie the Pooh on it.

Contra Rouge Corp is sounding like the hottest of garbo. Eh, I’m not too surprised. I didn’t have high expectations to begin with since this is modern day Konami. At least I got that dope Contra Anniversary Collection to scratch my Contra itch. Goos job on Konami for getting M2 to handle that one.

September is looking like a pretty chill month for game releases. At least for me, anyway. I could hold off Luigi’s Mansion 3 since I already have way too many games to handle as it is. Maybe if I finish Astral Chain before October 31st, I’ll pick it up. Since Link’s Awakening is done, I really should get back to that game.

Think you mean October. September had a laundry list of heavy hitters drop. A lot of them days apart or same day.

October has some low key big releases as well. I don’t think any of them are quite on the scale as the shit we got dropped on us in September but still a good amount of quality titles.

I’m personally excited for Concrete Genie (getting it next week when I get paid), Digimon Cyberslueth Complete Edition, MediEvil remake, Aladdin/Lion King Dual Pack and Luigi’s Mansion 3.

I forgot to list it but the Yooka-Laylee sequel but not a sequel came out on the 8th as well. So far it’s getting rave reviews as well. I have YL on PS4 so I’ll likely get the sequel on PS4 as well.

Whoops. Yeah, meant to say October. September is still so fresh in my mind. That month almost killed my wallet.

Downloading my Digital version of Indivisible, i totally forgot that beside my physical copy, i had access to the digital version due the amount i pledged.

…and very few aside from me care about it, but Vampyr hits Switch in October as well; 10/25 if I recall and hell yeah I’m double dippin’ on that one… PORTABLE vampire action, folks…you know I cannot resist that.

it would be nice if that Tokyo Ghoul game comes to Switch as well… that game looks far more entertaining and action-packed than the show it’s from…and finally a ā€œkinda vampireā€ game that matches my taste in terms of more fast-paced action… one problem I see with Code Vein (even though I am still getting it) is the speed just seems slow…vampires should never be slowly moving around like regular people; fuck that. :disappointed:

Only bad part about the Indivisible campaign is I forgot I got a digital Steam copy as I am waiting for my Physical PS4 disc.

Blizzcon is going to be something else this year, I can’t wait.

Don’t think we’ll see much of a attendance drop cuz it’s the place for their biggest fanboys to suck blizz dicks for several days in a row

Personally not expecting much in terms of actual announcements

  • StarCraft is still in limbo, only gets minor updates like announcers and skins
  • HotS is basically dead
  • OverWatch will be same shit every time, one new Hero and one new Map
  • HearthStone always gets reveals of the final expansion of the year with some new card showcases, no surprises there
  • There were no news about WarCraft III Reforged since like last E3 despite release date still saying ā€œComing 2019ā€, so probably a new trailer, beta announcement, release pushed to 2020
  • World of WarCraft should see next expansion reveal and Patch 9.0, let’s see how much worse they can botch this shit after BFA
  • Diablo Immortal sounds like vaporware at this rate, iirc it was supposed to launch earlier this year but again dead silence about the project
  • Diablo IV being potentially teased/announced this time is what both interests and worries me the most, especially after that Kotaku story with project being rebooted like twice, and Josh Mosquiera, the guy who arguably salvaged Diablo III with Reaper of Souls, is no longer at Blizzard. Who knows what the fuck are they going to do with the series, but wouldn’t be surprised if we’ll see heavy influences from Path of Exile

Twitch Chat will be most entertaining for sure, unless they start heavily filtering the streams or straight up disable the chat across the board

Where is @Akhos ? That new Pokemon would be right up his alley.

Galarian Ponyta is cute af. I know it was revealed almost a week ago during the Galar ā€œlive streamā€ but nice to see a full video of it.

My main gripe: Why did they not show what type or types it is? My guess is it’s going to be Fire/Fairy but PokĆ©mon is dumb with typings sometimes.

Warcraft 3 Reforged is all I care about from Blizzcon…
