RE: Soul hackers 2. Having seen the trailer for now the game seems to have a lot of style and music. I hope the combat system is more flexible than the persona games but we'll see.
As for the aesthetic, this game is a much a product of its time as the original was. (for better or worse).

The power of thousands of different ultra-niche fanbases amplified by hundreds of millions of potential customers with a Steam account.

I still believe part of the pandemic growth is people having a gaming-capable PC for the first time, or after several years of not having it. (WFH office workers who use the company provided laptop/PC for gaming)

I went through 30+ pages of posts so I'm all caught up, now. And welcome back, lashman! :flare_lmao:



Did you mod your games at all? It's weird for an unmodded game resulting in borked save games, but then again, it's Squeenix.
I've been playing through FFPR myself (up to FF IV as of last night) and the experience was a lot better with mods -- as it was always has been. :flare_smirk:
Ah, the only mods I have for Pixel remaster 1-3 is for Font, and I use a CRT reshade. :unsure:

This change is literally from 2017.
PCGamer lmao...

Maybe I'm biased because SMT is my favorite franchise but SH is awesome and you should check it out if you have a 3DS.
It's a first person dungeon crawler with a unique cyberpunk aesthetic which really makes it stand out from other games of the genre and it has a great cast of characters. It's relatively short and if you have trouble with any fight just keep in mind that buffs/debuffs are completely OP.

honestly, just not feeling soul hackers 2

i'd rather wait for the steam deck to get to norway so i can replace my laptop with bullet wounds
than play a game that consists of a team of an old blonde prostitute, micheal jackson and el donte from DmC

I thought it was fine but I don't want to play it ever again lol
Well I would never replay a JRPG anyways, but I really enjoyed Tokyo Mirage Sessions last year. Way more than for example SMT3 which I dropped 30 hours in (finally returned to and finished it last month). Such a great cast of characters.

Atlus, releasing a game day one on PC? Intriguing.
It really is mind blowing how random their PC release "strategy" is. Catherine gets a port of the old game, but not of the remake a few months later they put on every other platform. Persona 5/Royal never gets a port, but the pseudo sequel Strikers is here Day 1 with the console ROW release. They port Persona 4 Golden ONLY for PC. SMT3 HD Remasters is Day 1, SMTV is (so far) Switch Exclusive. What ever happened to the Persona 3 Remake Jason Schreiber alluded to?

Hmm, Soul Hackers is rated excellent in Citra compatibility list :blobeyes:
Though I wonder if the second screen is just there for the map and if it will be annoying to switch to.

the Street Fighter 6 logo looks so bland, I checked if Ive seen it before; and then I found a logo that looks strikingly similar on a Stock image site:


edit: also this one

We've seen reports that we're 'not allowed' to show Elden Ring performance pre-launch. Not strictly true: we've been asked to show performance analysis in our content based on the day one patch to show the game as you'll play it, which is a reasonable ask and nothing new.

It's worth pointing out that day one patches often arrive before launch and we're aiming to get the content out as soon as possible - but the reality of video production is that it takes time.

It's the sixth main game in the series, maybe that's why they used a hexagon shaped logo

One more chapter left in Bully. Game is still really fun but movement controls are ruining experience.

Famiboards should be cool to post here? More HD2D games are coming
The best thing about the Actraiser resurrection is that someone at Square Enix remembered that their Enix back catalog exists.

Terranigma please okay thanks.

Soul Hackers 2 looks really good. I wasn't expecting some big new game. I thought it would just be a remaster or some small thing. Steam release day one is incredible news. Would be amazing if SMTV also gets released on Steam later this year. We could be looking at SMTV, SH2 and FF7R on steam. Also Starfield for total RPG overload in 2nd half of the year.

Also 3 more days until Elden Ring :blobcheer:

Soul Hackers 2 huh, on PC day 1 huh. :thinking-blob:

Never heard of Soul Hackers before, and I'm not really interested in going back to the 3DS game now, but as long as there's no plot continuity, you have my interest.

And now port Persona 5 Royale with cheese.

So, Soul Hackers is just 10€ on the 3DS eShop. Of course, since the only way to pay is getting prepaid cards, I still had to spent 25€ to get it. Well, maybe I'll check out the back catalogue of the 3DS before Ninty shuts it all down next month.

So far the game seems very old-school Persona in its art style and presentation. Haven't gotten to any gameplay bits yet, seems like the prologue takes up a bit of time.

Why though? You can play at midnight between 24 and 25 in central Europe and it's basically a simoultaneous release
It's a week night, meaning some, if not all or at least most, of us have to work the following day...
If they wanted a simultaneous release and do things like this at least release it on a friday night (not that it would change the fact that I'm not staying up all night playing a game, no matter how hyped I am for it or how good it might be, I'm not 15 anymore...). Either way I was just venting a bit of frustration, I waited 2+ years to play DS3 and got in spoiler free, I can wait 1 more day for ER.
