He was allegedly trying to meet up with the minor at Twitch-Con, so you may be right.

Yeah, that really brings me back. I had like 4 tokens on Steam to give the game away when they were trying to get more people to play. There was some other hero shooter MOBA a little after that too, by Epic or something. Didn’t last very long and wasn’t all that great, but I still played the shit out of the falcon character that could “fly”. Man, I need to jump into another one of these games.

Oh shit, I hadn’t heard of that. I’ll definitely check it out; thanks for the recommendation.

It was a hero shooter MOBA but with some verticality, so that’s about as far as the Overwatch comparison goes. I had a great time with it. I like traditional MOBAs but don’t have the skill/patience/time for them, so hero shooter MOBAs are the perfect way for me to be able to play them more casually. In my opinion, of the few I’ve tried, Paragon was the best implementation of a hero shooter MOBA; the core gameplay just felt really tight to me.

Or Paragon even. That game was so fun back in the day before it got killed. If anyone can make something that fun again, it’s probably Valve.

Cool system; thanks for the run through!

Is it here in the post? I’ve looked all over and can’t find mention of that. There’s the video of the author clearing it, but that doesn’t imply that all levels are beatable.
- Comment on I'm announcing a new game today, please let me know what you think! It's a mix of Kingdom and Shadow of the Colossus - GHOSTHERO: Shadow of Vengeance 7 months ago:
Cool idea! I’m not really into survival or tower defense games, but I like the theme and the look of the whole thing. Survival games seem to be getting a lot of attention these days, so I hope you’re able to attract some of that because it seems like a cool idea for those into it.

But just because something existed before the Internet doesn’t mean it doesn’t still exist now. You say you’re using pre-90s expectations, but it’s a modern object still - so why would that help at all?

Ah ok, gotcha. Who knows, I might agree once I actually pick the game up. I just don’t want a map filled with what feels to me like filler.
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion 1 year ago:
I just started this too! Agreed on all fronts. It’s gorgeous, the combat is refined and a combination of a lot of great old-school JRPG mechanics, I like all the winks and tongue-in-cheek mentions of classic tropes. I was just really hoping the story wasn’t going where I thought it was going. But now that I have gotten a certain bit in, it feels like it’s going exactly where I think it’s going. But it’s such a self-aware game that I hope I’m wrong. Because you’re right, the characters are actually likeable and do at times subvert tropes, blatantly even like they know we expected them to behave a certain way. Fingers crossed.

That’s really great to hear. I heard an estimate of the game length elsewhere too. I’m really glad to hear that overall it’s generally a tighter experience rather than including a bunch of collectathons.
- Comment on Lies of P | Review Thread (83/100 OpenCritic) 1 year ago:
Yeah, I’m surprised there’s so much praise of the combat. There was a lot of feedback on the combat after the demo, so I wonder if they tightened it up before release.

I understand a large number of apps request phone number to log in, but that doesn’t explain why it’s a weird line to draw to not engage with that.

What makes it a weird line for them to draw?
