That’s not-

Wait a minute. Ha, you almost had me, you sly dog.

I hope you do play it someday! I think it’s definitely a game you have to be in the mood for, but when it clicks it’s an amazing experience. But I also think it’s really easy to bounce off of it too

I think so, though there are some optional levels they may struggle with. If they play as Yoshi they won’t take any damage, which might help. Alternatively, someone more experienced could play as Yoshi and the kid could ride the Yoshi through some of the more challenging spots.

I’ve been playing some Mario Wonder too (both co-op and single player). I’m not the biggest 2D platformer fan, but I think it does a pretty good job. I’m surprised at how difficult some of the levels have gotten so far (4 and 5 star difficulty levels ain’t no joke). I’m not sure if I’ll finish it, but there’s fun to be had for sure.

I’m also closing in on finishing Chrono Trigger for the first time. I’m enjoying it, though I think the PS1 and PS2 era JRPGs are more up my alley. This game definitely oozes charm though, and I can see why many consider it a classic. After I beat it I’ll probably try Chrono Cross again, though last time I tried playing it the game froze twice early on just talking to people…

After you finish the witness, you should try The Looker. It’s a free parody of the witness that’s also pretty good as a puzzle game in its own right. Though, like the witness, I didn’t finish it either.

You can say someone gave a poor performance in a specific instance without implying they’re overall a bad actor.

Jelloapocalypse plays games with his friends. He also has highlights up on his main channel if you’d prefer something more edited.

39.6% of players have beaten the final boss of Elden Ring. Considering how huge the game is, and how difficult it can be, I found that to be a surprisingly large number of people. I’m not sure how that compares to dark souls 3, but Dark Souls 2 has about 33% completion and dark souls 1 (prepare to die edition) has less than 25%

In response to cyber punk though, it’s entirely possible for gameplay to be bad enough that even a good story can’t save it. Personally, I had a problem getting invested in cyber punk’s story because I just was not enjoying the moment to moment gameplay. Each person has subjective opinions on where that line is, so I think it’s fair for someone to judge it even after just a few missions (though I agree, it might be they enjoyed it more if they gave it more time)

I’ve been playing the original Quake, as well as Deus Ex. I’m not normally a fan of boomer shooters, but Quake has been surprisingly fun and interesting. I realize this might be a complaint for some, but I appreciate the simplified arsenal of weapons. It puts more focus on enemies and the level design, which I appreciate.

Deus Ex is fun, but it hasn’t had the moment where it fully clicks for me just yet, like Prey did. I’m still enjoying it, but I’m curious to see if it really grips me like some other immersive sims do.

Has it had that big update come out yet? It looks interesting, but I also am not sure I’d leave Strive for it
