Ni No Kuni II is one of those games where it feels like I'm looking through the looking glass whenever I read these extremely negative impressions. I understand that not every game is for everyone, but seriously, some of the things people say about it.... u wot m8? I never played the first one (yet!) so I can't compare them but even on its own I don't see how it's anywhere near being a horrible game.

I remember playing Ni No Kuni on PS3, aside from the "Ghibli visuals", it was a very very mediocre game. Also it was way too long ( and boring ), and i love me some long games, especially JRPGs, but I was happy to finally see the end on that one.

So based on that and everything i heard about the second one, i have absolutely zero interest in playing it.

I'm pretty much in the same boat as you. With the remaster coming later this month we can finally check for ourselves. I will say that I'm not ready to be disappointed by a game that looks so good as NNK though.

Seriously, I'd much rather play an RPG Maker game than an Level-5 RPG.
(Maybe I'd give an exception to Inazuma Eleven if I was 6-7 years old)

Ni No Kuni 2 is something worse than horrible: boring and mediocre

There was local and county elections today in Norway. The leftist parties are the big winners. Red (left wing socialist/some call them communists) doubled, Socialist party doubled and the leftist-centre party is the nationwide biggest winner. The right wing party hasn't had such a bad election since sometime in in the 90s (don't remember when exactly) and the conservatives went back a lot too.

The conservatives are worried that there might be a norwegian "brexit" as the leftists parties I named are against EU and the EEA. Norway isn't in EU, but in the EEA.

Are the leftist parties against the EEA? I assume it would hurt Norway a lot, unless you replace it with some sort of free trade deal, and even that would fall short of the current integration with the EU market. I guess oil money could keep Norway a float for like forever, but it's dumb to just burn it for no reason.

Free month of gamepass from Alienware still available. It's really two months if you enable recurring payments. Stacks with whatever you currently have.

The Labour Party (socialdemocrats) went back a lot and according to the researches, they leaked votes to both the Red (left-wing socialists/commies), the Socialist party, the centre-left and the greens. I think a lot of leftist here find that the Labour party has went in the wrong direction (to the right) and are voting far parties further to the left in order to push the Labour Party to the left.

Yes, Labour Party hasn't really declared their view, which I think has hurt them. Lots of labour party voters leaked to the leftist parties that has declared themself to be against EU and EEA. The leftist parties want out of EEA and instead have a free trade deal.

A big reason for why they are against EEA is that EEA is hurting the working environmental law.

Grabbed a key. This will help me play gears until the inevitable Steam remaster collection of all 5/6 is released. Thanks :)

San Andreas is the better GTA because of swimming and bicycles. Nothing has come close to its awrsomeness since

So glad that Greedfall lived up to the hype.

My biggest gripe is that you can't pause the cutscene/conversation. I need it badly because I often have to pause while playing game to care for the baby.

OOOOOF motherfucker

those blands 3 scores


OOOOOOOOOOOOF
morningbus must be celebrating
What's wrong with the scores? I thought 85 on Meta is pretty good, actually.

Does Sony even have any form of VRR in their TVs? I mean Samsung and LG (who I think have a bigger TV market share than Sony does world wide) have VRR support in their TVs so that must be saying something. I'm not sure if Vizio has VRR support.

By the way are the Nvidia Gaming TVs out yet?

I honestly don't even look at Sony TVs anymore. I think they're over priced.

I do find it funny how Microsoft did team up with Samsung since the Xbox One does support VRR unlike the PS4 and MS used Samsung as an example of what VRR can do. Sadly it does not seem like that many people talk about it and instead they only care about "4K OLED TVs", which I think are overrated. Sure OLED and 4K can "look" nice but most of the time those games are being played at 30fps and with compromises.


oh and remember how I said that I ordered a lot of figures, well my Goblin Slayer Figma finally shipped... and I still have yet to hear about my A2 Bring Arts figure. In the next few week my Persona 5 Queen figma should also be getting ready to ship as well.

Nier A is a good game and I was able to get all but 5 ending for the game, as for Persona 5 I never finished the game and stopped playing in "Nov in game". That game did have it's moments but like I mentioned with FE 3H I can only take so much time management

I remain convinced that 90% of P5's time management irritation stems from Morgana being an annoying turd.

PS5 and NextBox cant come soon enough. Some games are just painful to look at.

I was watching the Dreamcast special made by Archipel, and it captures what made consoles special back in the day.
