Ratchet and Clank looks good as you'd expect. They straight up added Mega Man X air-dashing too, even with the after images.
I feel like I should have at least played the Future series before considering picking up this new one. I wouldn't necessarily worthy of my name otherwise (still keeping it, BTW). Doesn't help that we sold my PS3 for our PS4.

Really planning on getting Rise when TWEWY sequel and Skyward Sword HD comes out. I'm interested in the series now thanks to the demo.
It's definitely a great starting point thanks to some nice QoL changes and slightly lower difficulty for the monsters. Hopefully you enjoy it!

OK, going to abridge it a bit since it's late here. If you're curious about my opinion on somethin', I answer it tomorrow.

For now, let's get this party crazy.

Molly was the last slime girl of the bunch to do. Lots of puzzles in the way, and beside 1 moment where I backtracked like a fool. I had alot of fun figuring out those puzzles on my own, not spoiled here.

Still, after this was done, I......fought Robotheart.

Yeah, you can fight her in the normal route, and while she didn't pose much of a challenge. When you translate what she's saying, it's kinda hard seeing the group being so uncaring toward her, buuuuuuuuuut hey, gotta get that achievement. :p

With THAT done, the time for the Slime Girls was at last here! And oh boy, were their fight crazy.

While I was still quite overlevel. Theses crazy girl almost managed to wipe you my entire party by taking all of our juice, increasing their stats and then unleasing a big attack that killed Aubrey and left everyone to survive.

Keep in mind I had put several debuff on them by that point and even unleashed TWO All-Out Attack on them before they went down. So those girls weren't messing around!

Overall, I had alot of fun, and on that note. can I say I REALLY like their design (booba joke here)? Fanservice aside, I love their dynamic, color palettes and expression. Their themes slap all sort of asses too, but that's Omori soundtrack for ya. Really, the only dissapointing about them is that they're introduce so late into the plot, and once they're defeated, they're just gone (well, eated to be precise). While the Omori Route has more of them, like Mr.Jawsum, I wish we saw more of them in one way or the other, but that's how it is.

What come after tho, hoooooooooooooooly crap. Humprey, As the real final boss from a gameplay standpoint, while it wasn't tooooo hard. It made scared quite alot, and not because you just get vored over & over again. This motherwhaler hit like a truck & MULTIPLES TIMES in his first phase! When I saw he could deal 100 damages to me easily. I quickly realized I needed to debuff & make him angry him as fast as possible while I put everyone on Happy while healing alot. Otherwise I wouldn't make it.

Ironically tho, once he became a single being, the fight got much easier for me, but he still hitted hard, so no rest there.

The deeper we went into him, the more truly unsettling Humprey became too. He is like the perfect represention of Omori as a game: cute and funny on the surface, extremely scary & depressing the deeper you explore it. Idk if I say he is my favourite character, but I say all the dialogues with the mini-Humprey, the way his area was really fun to explore, the music and all those bosses. I say for all my problems I had with the previous area. They truly ended it on a bang.

After finally beating it by hitting it's uvula, the party is blasted from it's party and our quest is done!....mostly because no one remember Basil at all, especially once the final key is unlocked. Basil fall apart and the party now just want to explore the spooky abandonned house for fun....

Still, before I did that (I did look up the flowers and seeing them all dead is just urgh). I had a few thing to do:

1) Get into the all the floor of Dino Dig to get a item for a sidequest AND the Chicken Ball for Kel. (aka how to make Run-N-Gun broken) Which after being unaware the dino key don't despawn from your inventory if you got in a previous run. I managed to do easily after beating up some real chicken & bunnies.

2) I did the two sidequests remaining. That beign the Ghost Party (which tbh, I loooked online to find all the ghosts, sorry but not really :p ) and the previously mentionned one that require to get a item in Dino Dig third layer. Let me know if any sidequests unlock after Humprey, 'cuz otherwise, i'm done here.

3) Paid all of Rococo arts & got the achievement for it. Thanks to farming Squizzard with the Clam Coin & killing enemies while they're happies thanks to Hero dazzles. (happy enemies give more money) & solding Snowcones and the like since I know there isn't any big battle left at this point.


Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd I don't think there's anything left that is note worthy for this run. Like the sidequest part, let me know if there's still things I should do in Headspace before I go to Black Space, and if not....well, you know what's next.

Thanks for reading and have a great night! (oh and, when do you think we're getting that 1.0.8 update? Think we're going to get something special with it?)

Sony's waning presence in Japan, despite their insistence that they intend to stay, is easily the most fascinating part of this whole thing to me. There's quite a handful of companies there that have a presence on Playstation, despite restrictions put in place after HQ moved to California, which in turn has resulted in more and more games cheesing it to PC. It makes me wonder; if PS were to withdraw from Japan altogether in the future, what would those companies known for exclusives (Atlas, for example) do?
Putting most of their eggs in one basket seems like a fool's errand. Many of their first party games are already huge undertakings, so keeping their Japanese studio for A and B tier games to supplement their popular AAA titles would've been smart. Stuff like Gravity Rush and so on.

I don't know, it just sort of reminds me of Capcom in the late 2000's and early 2010's, chasing the western market harder than normal than sticking to what made people like them in the first place. Though I suppose in Sony's case, it at least garnered far more success.

If I could make a game based on any existing property I’d make a Pokémon 3D platformer.

I’ve got a lotta ideas for one. Might just doodle my concepts.

I think you hit the nail on the head there.

Thing with games like most of their Japan Studio stuff was that there were very nice compliments to the big releases to a T.

Feels like without them it's given them a bad hit on that.

Also Guh-Huzzah! Guh-Huzzah! , I forgot to answer to your earlier post about Animation Hell, but from what I read, it's looking like a awesome big crossover project!

Look forward to see it done. :)

Guy half beaten: "No matter how many fangames, no matter how many music channels, no matter how many pirates......there will always be another to fight against you!"

Nintendo: "They will fall as well!"

Guy: "The death of all this will be the death of gaming for all!"

Nintendo: "Then first! Prepare for YOUR DEATH!"

Du-du-du-du-du-di-Do PUNCH!" as Nintendo hits him in the face.

There’s this one guy who has won on turn 5 every single game and it’s hilarious how oppresive his deck is.

I’m literally playing a control deck, making him sack his stuff and discard his hand, but he still somehow keeps on getting his infinite mana combo. lol.

So I don't usually rip game music tracks off YouTube..................but with the idea popping into my head I'm taking a few off Mario Kart. Which begs the question.

How the hell has game companies not realised that the whole taking down of VG music off YouTube is literally the definition of "cutting the heads off the hydra"?

You try to cut one off and another will spring up. They should give up honestly.

How’s everyone doing this afternoon?
Getting myself ready for tomorrow's bike journey and ripping a few tracks off YouTube. Me gonna be blasting that Mario Kart music into my headphones as I speed through a park.

Then I die from a banana peel.


Sort of relevant.

Was getting back into Dragon Quest 3 and found out you can use the left and right buttons to determine how many of an item you want to buy.......

I’ve could’ve been buying medicinal herbs in bulks instead of one at a time this whole time........
