I haven’t tried it on monsoon, so I can’t say. It’s possible–testing is the thing that bigger companies seem to like to cut corners on to save money and get things out faster, so it’s entirely possible. But at least it sounds like they’re taking the feedback to heart, so it could still end up pretty good with some rework.

That’s the thing–it’s more than bug fixing. They’re reworking a large amount of the content. I’ll probably pick it back up in a few months and see how it’s coming.

For me, outside correlates with an open world, and underground correlates with a linear progression. I generally prefer the vibe of open world stuff. Underground stuff can sometimes have a lot less variation as well, which can get tiring. The general vibe is often designed to have a somewhat oppressive feel.

Another difference is the sense of being cut off from a safe place (whether real or imagined)–outside feels more flexible with retreating to safety or restocking supplies while dungeons can limit your ability to “return to home base” as it were. I disliked dungeons a lot more when I was younger, turned out to be a generalized anxiety disorder. I enjoy a wider variety of games these days.

Out of curiosity, have you played Baldur’s Gate 3? There’s a large area that would be interesting to see what you think of it.

Will they be canon with the original Dave series?

So I’ve heard. I’m avoiding it for the same reason I avoid analog crack cocaine.

Mobile gaming is like dumpster diving–there are a handful of good ones among the utter trash.

One of the good ones I found is Exiled Kingdoms–it’s an homage to 90’s RPGs, and it’s good on mobile.

Hydration levels vary wildly by the moment

I imagine both groups expect to recruit from the other

But what’s the statue made of?

This is a great illustration of Chaotic Neutral

The $50 dickbutt DLC isn’t scheduled to be released until a month after the launch, but for an extra $70 you can get the limited edition collectors edition at launch, that comes with a cheaply made Mario-with-a-butt-instead-of-a-head limited edition figurine.

And for $40 you can also purchase the “getting started” pack–that includes a save file where we beat the game, so you don’t even have to play it. Your name, email address, and SSN will be on our first-to-finish list!

I’m gonna release a AAAAA game. It’ll cost $95 and when you install it, it’ll just be a romhack of Super Mario World changing all the enemy sprites into butts. There’ll be a link to file complaints that just points to a terrible image made in ms paint that says “lol f u”.

My stock prices gonna hit the moon.

He’ll make you two sandwiches, but he’ll take three bites out of one of them.
