Phase, please tell me in your own words what DEI is. You keep using this term and I am convinced you have no idea what it means. Please stop falling for the grift. Perhaps you’re right, my understanding of it is that it’s a push for marginalized groups to be represented more. Of course that’s not a...

I dislike when localizers change dialogue in western versions of Japanese games to make them more “Americanized”.

It comes out tomorrow, but it’s digital only for PS4. It’s also $50 which is more than I was expecting it to be, I thought that it was going to be $30-$40 since it’s an indie game. I’m going to wait to get it when it’s on sale for $30, or less.

Perhaps it won’t, but the pushback that it’s been receiving could lessen it.

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 328: 4/13/24: No Rest for the Wicked Edition

I fired up Resident Evil 3 (the original PS1 entry). I hadn't played a game in the classic formula in years, and I was in the mood. Still a great game, even if it's showing its age a bit. If you’re interested in playing a new old style Resident Evil type game then I would recommend Alisa. https://m...

I started playing Raging Bytes, it’s a 2D top down view pixel art zombie apocalypse game with 3D turn-based combat. It has a retro style charm to it.

Re: The Uglification of Female Characters in Western Developed Video Games

This has got to stop, because it’s getting ridiculous at this point. Now even female cartoon characters are being made androgynous, frumpy and unattractive looking. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sM7nmFMTuZw&pp=ygUKcG9rZW1vbiBnbw%3D%3D https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Bz5lWL5Vp0I&pp=ygUKcG9rZW1v...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 328: 4/13/24: No Rest for the Wicked Edition

I finished Avengers, it was a decent third person action beat ‘em up platformer that could have been better if they focused on the single player experience instead of on the co-op/multiplayer live service stuff. The single player story campaign feels a little half-baked, but it offers a decent amoun...
