I played a total of 49 games this year, among them were some of the best I've ever played that easily found their way onto my favorite video games of all-time list. What follows is each game with a rating out of 10 and some of my thoughts on what I liked and didn't like about each one. Hope you enjoy and let me know what you think!

Aggelos (Switch) 6.5/10

Nice little retro inspired 2D action platformer with light metroidvania qualities. It looks good, has a nice soundtrack, and controls really well. Some of the bosses are a bit tough and dying at them can be a bit punishing. Not having an actual map really makes the backtracking and looking for items extremely frustrating.

Assassin's Creed Unity (Xbox One) 7/10

I had never played an Assassin's Creed game before but wanted to try out a game in the series. I was able to get this for about $1 and loved the setting of Revolutionary Paris so I was excited to get started. Since this is the 8th installment in a huge franchise, the playstyle is already well established and can be a bit difficult for a newcomer like myself to get into at first which was definitely true here. After wrapping my head around the controls and gameplay structure, I really got into it. Exploring the city and being put in cool situations where you have to kill someone and escape was extremely entertaining for me and never got to be too much. Highlights include the sewer mission as well as climbing the Eiffel Tower.

Battletoads (Xbox One) 7/10

Took a really dated and impossibly hard franchise and brought it into the modern world with this latest entry. I enjoy all the variety (beatemup, warioware like mini-games, schmup, platformer, puzzles, turbo tunnel) as well as the voice acting/story which is a bit cheesy but in a saturday morning cartoon kind of way. Some parts are tough but not unreasonably so.

Blasphemous (Switch) 8/10

Great metroidvania with a unique setting and themes that sets it apart from others. It's definitely on the harder side (especially for me when I went down a harder path before I was supposed to) but it gets more manageable once you get used to the combat and are able to get some much needed upgrades. Speaking of the combat, it's more deliberate than other metroidvanias so you have to be more considerate of dodging and countering which at times can slow the pace down but also supplies more of a challenge.

Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon 2 (Switch) 6.5/10

Didn't enjoy this one as much as th

#Introduction

With so many games releasing nowadays, I think it's easy for the good ones to get lost in the shuffle. I'm going to list 60 upcoming local multiplayer games releasing in the future. This is just a tiny fraction of what’s on the horizon, as Steam alone received 10,263 games in 2020. I’m going to order the games by release date. If the game does not have a tangible release date, I’ll place it in the list based on what I think is more likely to come out first, based on marketing material and communication from the developers.

Note that the platforms listed are just what’s confirmed, and a platform not being listed doesn’t necessarily mean a game won’t come to said platform. Sometimes it is difficult to find information on what platforms a game will be on, and sometimes the developer doesn’t even know until later down the line. In a lot of cases, indie games will release on Steam first and then come to consoles later. For example, Trash Sailors released on Steam yesterday, but it won’t be on Switch until February 17, 2022.

#Games Omitted from the List

O-1. Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope [NOT CONFIRMED]

• Picture: Link

• Trailer: Link

• eShop Page: Link

• Release Date: 2022

• Platforms: NS

• Genre: Party Game

• Multiplayer: TBD

• Description: The original Mario + Rabbids had a separate local co-op mode – meaning the main campaign was single player, but there were separate levels designed for co-op. It is unknown if it will be returning with this new entry, but the fact that the eShop page didn’t just default to 1 player makes me think it will.

O-2. Redout 2 [NOT CONFIRMED]

• Picture: Link

• Trailer: Link

• Steam Page: Link

• Release Date: 2022

• Platforms: PC/PS4/XBO/NS

• Genre: Racing Game

• Multiplayer: 12 Player Online PvP - Local PvP is TBD

• Description: Redout draws inspiration from racing games like F-Zero and Wipeout. The first game released in 2016 and received an 81% critic rating and a 76% user rating for the PS4 version of the game, which also featured two player split-screen support. It’s worth noting that

Do your worst!

So Specter's 2nd op record already came out on CN, was wondering what would Skadi's first record would be like - so I came up with a few speculations! Feel free to comment about what you would like as a story for Skadi Operator record #1!

My opinion :

Likely :

1. More info about Aegir as a country and the underwater cities(Bikini bottom)
2. Story on Skadi's family, maybe it'll also reveal how they are murdered(I want a sprite of Skadi's lil sis...)
3. Skadi goes on a vacation with Grani (crossed off for now, it looks awkward as hell)
4. How Abyssal hunters are born/made
5. Her relationship with Laurentina/Specter in Aegir
6. Possibly for far later(Skadi record#2) Skadi meets Anita and Irene again.
7. Skadi's bounty hunter life(before R.I.) -> info on 'rescuing' Huan, Jose's son(and also solely taking on a gang of bounty hunters and walking out in one piece)

Unlikely(My personal wants) :

1. Skadi teaches doc her homeland's music
2. Skadi sings in a R.I. band
3. Her Siesta story(regarding her Waverider skin)

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Pilot on me!!

Kaga has recently begun work on remaking the Sacred Sword of Silvanister so it can be up to date with the latest version of SRPG Studio. The remake is currently going through the play testing phase. You can download it here: https://ci-en.net/creator/11872/article/570288. I encourage you give Kaga some feedback to improve the experience. Here is a list of all the changes made in each version. Apologies if the text is a bit vague. I don't speak Japanese and just used DeepL to translate them.

Update: Kaga has said he also plans to remake Vestaria Saga: War of the Scions as well with similar changes.

General info

The game has been renamed Vestaria Saga II: The Sacred Sword of Silvanister as it feels more like a true sequel than a side story and to avoid confusing western players. Dangan Entertainment has confirmed the remake will be the final product for the English translation. Vestaria Saga II will also be renamed Vestaria Saga III to accommodate this change. Vestaria Saga III is stated to be the final chapter of the story.

The screen has been increased to a 1280 x 720 resolution.

The title screen art has been changed.

There is only one difficulty and there have been many adjustments made to accommodate this change.

At the end of the game, a screen will appear showing the number of battles a unit has fought, won and their EXP gain. It also shows the same for NPC units who have helped you throughout the game as well.

The game is overall easier.

You can now save anytime instead of every five turns.

Most of the music has been changed.

Battle lag is fixed.

EXP intake has been increased by 20.

The sound that plays when gaining stats during level-ups is the same as in VS1.

HP bars have been added to the map sprites. There are two types of HP bars to choose from and you can turn them off.

Untradeable items will no longer be sent to the stockpile if a unit's inventory is full.

Enemies can now use Canto after attacking.

Enemy AI has been adjusted so they no longer attack units if they calculate that they are unable to damage the unit. This has a significant effect on Chapters 12 and 20. For Chapter 12, the Distance Archers who use Flame Bows who are meant to be taken out by Bennett will target Laurec and the others stuck behind the cliff if Bennett's resistance is higher than 4. In Chapter 20, it is a lot more difficult to use your armored units to defend the walls.

Zade no longer starts with a Sh

Based on my advanced calendar analytics, the new story should be this week or next so let's recap!

And yes, I'm still doing this for Season 4 but now with new formatting!

Season 3 Recap

Let’s start this!

#Chapter 1

##Prologue

Rain has a recurring dream of a burning city. The same dream he used to have as a child. He’s been scouring the world looking for damage done by the Hollow while also searching for clues about Levonia.

Then a distortion appears near Rain’s airship and he goes to investigate it.

##Unknown Lands

Rain wakes up… in an unknown land. Apparently, the airship pilot did not listen when told not to get too close to the distortion. A cactus monster with regenerative powers forces Rain to use his blood aids to defeat it. Two more monsters appear but Rhus and Nelikka appear (the two from the end of S3) and kill them. Turns out Rain’s earlier blood aids on the airship opened the portal to Levonia… conveniently.

Airy from Bravely Default got a new job as Niini in this game. I trust her. The group heads to the Republic of Sherna.

##Gamlasta Way

Rusty and Nelicker have a power stronger than blood aids (blood covid?) and they need that to stand up to “them.” Rusty and Nelicker then directly and succinctly tell Rain who “them” is and what the new power is… Nah, I’m just fucking with you. He has to take an examination before they will tell him anything.

What does get explained though is the new monsters are strong because of the Omega cores which have been attaching to creatures. It’s R/N’s duty to collect these cores. Not much is known about Omega itself besides being a superboss from FFV an unknown lifeform that came from the sky many ages past. cough Lavos cough And get this, an ancient civilization tried to control the power of Omega and led to the nation’s downfall. cough Zeal cough

>!I just got lost on the map for like 30 seconds. The new area opens up a mile and a half away from the previous one but I wanted to go do the EX battle. You can’t zoom out either, trying to pinch the map just makes things worse.!<

##Trail to Yorte

We now switch our main character over to Taivas.

Taivas and his robot sidekick Runde are on a mission from God to safeguard a girl, Lehftia, in Yorte. Some of the townsfolk believe that Lefty might be a witch. She even turned one into a newt… he got better. So they are more than happy to

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

What did 0 say to 8 ?

" Nice Belt "

So What did 3 say to 8 ?

" Hey, you two stop making out "

When I got home, they were still there.

I won't be doing that today!

i know there is a gen 5 and 6 mystery dungeon but i don't like them as much.

Think about it, every single pokemon up to gen 3 has a walking/attacking sprite (from 4 different angles) a sleeping sprite, a damaged sprite, and this game came out in 2005...how is that possible? The sprites aren’t even low quality so I don’t understand how they did it
