I knew I was forgetting an obvious one! Contradiction would probably be placed higher than Phantasmagoria for me.

One day I will watch the P4 endurance run.
There's a difference between everything and everything that was well-regarded.

Even then it's near impossible seeing that everyone has a different definition of well regarded. Like, at this point I'm pretty sure I don't even want to touch the witcher 3.
Just reminds me of the arguments in the goty thread saying that they didn't complete x game thus their list is bad.

Well I gave 10 hours to Trails in the Sky but I think I'm tapping out. Maybe I'll come back to it when I'm craving a JRPG (although hopefully Persona 5 will be out by then).

it seems legit good but man I just can't deal with the pacing. it's just not for me, I think
One day you will watch the GOAT GB content, yes.
I kind of want to check out Trails of Cold Steel too because I know I like Falcom due to Ys 7(which I guess people consider 'weak' but I liked it more than Oath) but then people are like 'oh you should start with Trails In the Sky and you'll get more references'
and it's like I ain't got time to spend 200 hours to be able to more thoroughly enjoy a 80 hour game
and it's like I ain't got time to spend 200 hours to be able to more thoroughly enjoy a 80 hour game
which one's the best one?

Nothing Dan does is Euro friendly, if he ever knew something he did was Euro friendly I'm pretty sure he would change it.

Don't be. They're very minimal and not the main focus of the game. You can still enjoy Cold Steel all the same without knowledge of Sky.
You should play Trails in the Sky FC and SC because they're fantastic games, not because they're some precursor to an overall plot that's fairly minimal in the grand scheme of things at this point in the story. But if you don't to, its fine all the same.
It prioritizes world building and character building over story. The story beats eventually start hitting, but if you can't deal with slow progression, the games are definitely not for you.

I guess I could watch a playthrough of P4 in place of doing another playthrough myself this year.
We need a way of getting hold of PotatoMarshal.. Maybe some kind of signal we can project into the skies?
Weird how while Dan is playing Dark Souls, that one guy who seemed to enjoy being an asshole to everybody playing Dark Souls is mysteriously unavailable.

Well I'm not enjoying the world or dialogue either, so it's extra not for me, unfortunately. I'm gonna add the soundtrack into my study music rotation though.

Yeah, if none of that is doing anything for you then stay really far away. Its sad because while the first 10 or so hours of the game vary from person to person and I recognize that certain people definitely won't like it, the game definitely continues to improve with every new chapter and as you meet new characters. But asking someone to put in more than 10 hours into a game is unrealistic and you definitely gave it a fair shot.
The OST is real good though. SC specifically has some amazing songs.

I pretty much play it as a podcast game though, so the entire thing is on mute.

The music can be a bit repetitive, so its not too big a deal. I played it as a podcast game too for most of the actual gameplay segments of it, but the variety in boss music and the boss music itself are superb. And there's also some amazing cutscene/dialogue music.
What other game has less flaws that hurt it really bad?

Every created level in Trackmania is beautiful in its own way.
Bloodborne.
Literally the only flaws are lack of weapons and not too great PVP, and one of those things is fixed in the DLC.
Sure; and I've had fun making levels, it's more that I was just surprised to hear that I was and still am having such a different experience when it comes to playing other people's random levels.

dmc is a real great game.
It's a shame ninja theory had to go full insulting hipster ass hole when marketing the game and burn all those bridges and now I don't think they will make a sequel. I mean jeez they where trying to sell a game, not apply for a job at polygon.

That's actually a great counterpoint. Someone tell 2015 Brad.

I was thinking about playing a "real" game tonight but Trackmania is calling to me
Feel like that was only the first trailer though and that they seriously cut back after that, if i remember correctly. But yeah, i really enjoyed that game, probably the last Capcom game that i really liked.

It was ok. I had a number of issues outside of the whole "hispter edgy" stuff that game was marked with.
The Definitive Edition is a great game though and had some really cool features. Though the good boss fights that DMC1, 3, and some of 4 were known for were really bad in DmC.
Yeah, but those were made in Japan

I can't stop watching that Genei Ibun Roku #FE ending video, you guys.

You're not Dan, but you're posting like Dan. :O
Don't do this to yourself. The other great things in that series I can and will concede on but not that music.
I'm doing my best to resist watching it.

That was hilarious.
That shit is creepy.
I like his segments.

I need to pick that up at some point, I enjoyed the original DmC but felt no need to replay it because of various issues and the Definitive Edition is supposed to fix the issues I had.
