DunkagIn what I guess is now a series of posts about random games I've picked up, here's Dolls Nest. Not all that far into the game yet, but I do really enjoy what I've played. Customizable character is a plus, and actually surprised me when I realized I need to collect customization items. A lot of cute designs overall, and fanservice outfits too (also that "thickness slider" is hilarious, the two extremes are looking anorexic or like she's in the final month of pregnancy). The mecha combat is fun even if it's a little jank. There's intentional jank decisions like having turn speed be a stat, often leading to me flying off a cliff because I can't turn a corner fast enough. Then there's also just jank in general, like the game running poorly and nearly freezing every time a destructible object explodes. The game actually plays like a proper mecha game though, which is weird to say but I feel important to mention. Feels like there's a lot of modern RPG or open world games where the combat isn't supposed to be reskinned generic fantasy, but it is. Swords are there, but they need wind up to actually do damage, so running in for a stab isn't always a good move. I don't really know what else to say, it looks nice and I've had the chance to hear a grand total of one music track so far. Something about this game though just speaks to me, pure jank born of desire. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1839430/Dolls_Nest/

DunkagAlright, I just want to talk shit at this point. Tower Unite has released out of early access. The big release features? Practically nothing. Most minigames are still untouched from their barebones, unpopular original versions. Sure, there's a few bug fixes and extra maps added here and there, but that's about it. The game's not underrated like reviews may say, but instead overrated for the playerbase it has. It's like there's this cult of personality around the dev team since some of the original GMod Tower devs were there at some point in development (though I doubt any of them are still there). As a game it's just missing all the charm of being a source engine game, running in GMod, which practically everyone using steam owns. It feels like the full release is just a tagline to try increasing playerbase. The reality is, the only players who join will all end up doing the same stuff since most of the game isn't interesting. Watching youtube videos in a virtual space, and people gambling in a virtual casino. This is all to say, I regret spending money on this piece of shit even if I did get to play with friends for a small bit. Not even daring to bother reinstalling the game, it's just not going to be worth my time or effort to do the same mind numbing things as always.
@SuperSnekFriend When a girl like this says she can go all night, she doesn't just mean drinking. You should consider yourself lucky if she lets you stay conscious for the entire breeding session. :flan_embarassed3:
@MK2boogaloo Yuuka latching onto you like this means no escape, you will be a father and help her tend to the sunflower fields with your many children. :cirno_happy3: She may not be good at expressing herself, but once she's decided on something nobody can stop her.
After a great many bouts, the Hero of Ice is finally finished. Didn't expect to actually be able to power through it all like this, but I did. That is all bosses cleared with a no-hit challenge difficulty run, and a few misc accomplishments. It's all thanks to the Rose Idol. Now to wait for more DLC releases.
@hj@coolboymew@vertka This is such an oddly specific set of jokes I never expected to see here (I do wonder about the person who took the Super Ghostbusters CD, assuming someone did). Now make the cat sing Robert Cop. :cirno_dance: https://youtu.be/sG5FPnpbF20?t=451
@SnugSmug We can't do nuclear power here though, it's scary and made bombs and look, 1-2 whole major meltdowns in nearly 100 years (wikipedia only notes 5 total large scale incidents since the start of nuclear power)! It's so scary. We can't dare expose anyone to nuclear power, my friends running a coal plant said so. :flan_tired:
@rlier23@YeetLibs Vinny only pulls out the facecam when he has the GameBoy Camera setup, or when doing some really silly shit like V-Dub playing CoD. Not that he's gross to look at honestly, man still looks like a horror game protagonist.

DunkagCheating Detective Satori finally actually getting into backstory, and to no surprise it's a little darker than usual. Can't wait for people to use this to justify their grimdark fetishes for the next few years. :flan_tired: Outside of that the newer chapters have been slightly fun, but a bit too shounen-like, and Reimu's actually here to prove she's a menace. Really, this revenge or whatever is far too absurd and slightly misplaced. Time has passed and both people and youkai are happy with the peace, overturning it for selfish reasons related to the past isn't going to make anything better. Can't wait for Reimu to genuinely one hit the dumbass spirit, it's what she deserves. Maybe everyone can drink together when the anger clears as usual.
