this is like 2 years too late. microsoft couldve done something to salvage the xbox brand by competing with the steam deck around when the rog ally first came out. “this device is 100% compatible with windows games because it IS a windows machine!”

steamOS and bazzite are now in a really stable spot and the enthusiasts are already settled in.

memorize monster movements in order to anticipate next potential movement… I hate it.

this is literally the cornerstone of monster hunter combat

this is beside your point but nioh 1 had a white samurai based on a historical figure. i bet the chuds werent upset about that when it came out.

that was extremely poorly communicated

i think the characters and story are a definite high spot. the game is saying something about pollution and capitalism and how the two enable each other. it’s a little hammy but i really respect the devs for going for it.

but… the game feels really janky to play. it doesn’t have the tightness of the fromsoft souls games. it feels like a souls game was shoehorned into the default unity physics with no finesse.
