have you been enjoying absurd Helldivers 2 nonsense?
multiple players have independently called my compared my satirical scifi skirmish storytelling TTPRG 🎲 PLANET FIST to Helldivers—so much as to call it "exactly the tone of Helldivers." the new Faithless Edition of PLANET FIST will be releasing this year, and if you buy it now, you get the new edition for free!
in PLANET FIST, SHOOTOUTS ARE STORIES, and they're goofy and over the top. you're an undying, unsleeping soldier who can get blasted to bits and thrown right back onto the battlefield next round. if you're looking to see how it hits that Helldivers tone, just check out some of the FACTION TRAITS below!
what's PLANET FIST about? what does it play like? read the PRINCIPLES OF PLAY here!
what are people saying about PLANET FIST, besides that it's like Helldivers 2?
"PLANET FIST is a quick-to-learn and quick-to-play system for characters thrown into FPS-style deathmatches on a world that knows nothing but war. It's a game of high-emotion, low-consequence combat, for when you're wondering what the infinite Master Chiefs are thinking during Halo multiplayer. PLANET FIST is 'war never changes' said with the same inflection as 'it's all made up and the points don't matter.'"
- Caleb Zane Huett, designer of Triangle Agency
"An absolute blast—and then another, and then another, and then another, each leaving remains splattered on a wall. Gleeful, and tactical, and winkingly tongue-in-cheek; a masterful game from top to bottom."
- Jeff Stormer, host of the Party of One actual play podcast

Not sure if anyone will read this BUT ANYWAYS! The new Helldivers 2 update is absolutely unreal, it's insane how AH Studios is able to introduce a new faction that makes the entire game feel brand new. Fighting the Illuminates is so perfectly overwhelming between managing literal zombie hordes and fighting Elites from Halo it just fucks!!! If y'all were on the fence about HD2 or waiting to come back, now really is the time. P.S. I haven't even found the vehicle yet so stay tuned to hear about that.

I know its really no secret by now that we're gonna be fighting a new faction soon, but it's funny to see how Helldivers 2 is preparing players via propaganda.
Official announcement (in game from the Ministry of Truth) saying "Its not that Super Earth hates aliens, its that aliens hate freedom!"
Currently, we're fighting bugs and bots with very strict terminology and name use around them, so the fact they would say "aliens" doesn't really feel like a mistake.

helldivers 2 is a third person shooter where you do missions with up to 4 people in the name of democracy. i would say you fight bots and bugs but they added a new (old) faction, the illuminate (squids) who were in the first game. theyre just a bit different now and that's where the lore comes in. gameplsy wise though its really fucking fun. you can choose the difficulty you play on and theres so many different weapons and shit to mess with. they recently added a car too and iys so fucking funny because its insanely hard to control and you can literally just go flying out but im getting distracted. its really pretty too and it makes for some really fuckin awesome cinematic ass moments yknow. but the lore is good too. you're a helldiver, obviously, one of super earths best soldiers (even though the training is ridiculously short and you're Soo clearly expendable) but your goal is to spread managed democracy. because that's the best thing ever. the automatons (bots) are bloodthirsty socialists who want to kill and enslave the human race and turn them into slaves or something, the bugs are just. bugs. very undemocratic, very murderous. and the squids, they used to be peaceful until we fought em and completely wiped them out because they were a threat (in the first game) now they're back and out to destroy everyone. that's what super earth tells you, because they're Always right :)))))
in reality, you're fighting for the bad guy if it wasnt insanely obvious. the bots were peaceful until super earth took their home planet (cyberstan) and basically enslaved em i dont remember. thats helldivers 1 lore m pretty sure. and even said they could end things peacefully if they could just have their planet back. but super earth is greedy as fuck and denied, so now we're all fighting ! hooray!
the bugs were being farmed for oil and started breaking out and fighting back. not much too that i dont care about the bugs as much as the others
the illuminate like i said used to be peaceful till super earth fucked it up. they were almost all killed, its been a hundred years, and they've been evolving for war ever since, even kidnapping and enslaving civilians to use as zombies basically. shits awesome
theres more to the lore but yknoww this is long. you gotta go out of your way to do research if you Really really want to know everything but thetes like snippets of lore in the game . mostly super earth propaganda
YPU COULDVE JUST SAID SUPER EARTH PROPAGANDA AND I WOULD AGREE TO BUY IT HELP OMG AND I LOVEEE FUN GAMEPLAY LIKE IDC ABOUT LORE IF THE GAMEPLAY IS BORING IM NOT PLAYING WAIT I MIGHT ACTUALLY WATCH THE GAMEPLAY RQ WILL UPDATE IF I GET INTERESTED AND FALL DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE

Back when I still played (I got my 40 hours, I'm quite happy), I kept thinking about what this game would look like in "maintenance mode".
Helldivers 1 was designed to be an endless war from the get-go: The galaxy was randomly generated, and whenever Super Earth kicked out all three factions or failed the final defense, everyone would get the winner's or loser's outfit (respectively) and the whole thing would start over on a new galaxy. The servers are still up; you can still jump into the forever-war 9 years after release, 8.5 years after the last DLC drop.
Will Helldivers 2 make that transition someday? Can it make that transition? So much of the game's identity in the zeitgeist lies in a long, churning galactic war with a human GM directing both sides. You could hand that over to the computer, sure, but would anyone accept a Helldivers 2 where losing Super Earth amounts to getting a new cape?

so ends another year, which means Game of the Year considerations.
folding it under the read more so I can waffle at length
my game of the year among 2024's new releases is Crow Country, a game I probably should have shilled harder (the temptation to deposit it into every friend's library at Christmas was very high, that may be next year), but then I got buried in the entire release catalogue of RGG Studio. I find it to be practically flawless; it is on its own merits a top-notch survival horror, perfectly hitting that balance of creepy horror game on the first go and fast, tight time-attack action game on subsequent goes. It has a remarkably solid story, its soundtrack is perfect to the note, it's damn great to play and its visuals are a technical marvel, capturing the PS1 model and pre-rendered background aesthetics so perfectly that it stands head-and-shoulders above the many others aiming for it. In particular, its backgrounds are actually not pre-rendered but full 3D - but in stills or when the camera isn't being rotated, it looks so close and actually on-point in most rooms that it's uncanny.
It is one of a good number of games this year that are emblematic of what games should be and also what the games industry should be aiming at being, especially on the Western side, but of the ones of that sort that I played, it is the most perfect example. It is exactly as long as it needs to be, it has everything it needs to have, it uses the technology and power of today's hardware to achieve artistic splendour and it's a goddamn good game to actually play, one that actually wants you to be there and play it.
PC, Switch, PS4/5, fully Steam Deck compatible, get it wherever you can or want. Play Crow Country, it's fucking good for your soul. If I had any sort of image-editing capability I'd edit it into that Hobgoblin "What's the matter [popular game] boy? Afraid of tasting something?" image.
The 2024's new releases runners-up were:
Helldivers 2: By sheer volume of my time consumed Helldivers 2 could arguably take it, and it would be a deserving pick at that. Obviously the scorned and dismissed child of Sony's 12-active-service-games-simultaneously plans, it's now not only the only survivor but it succeeded beyond their wildest expectations by virtue of being fucking good. Underneath its Starship Troopers-nicking satire and humour is a damn good third-person shooter that borders on mil-sim with the adherence to realism in weapons and gunplay, importance of stealth in opposition to Super Earth's braggadocio, and MGSV-esque shooting/crouching/crawling controls. You can also earn all the in-game currency you need for paid new content by just playing the game (a lot, but there are no restraints), a decision starkly against the entire rest of the industry's preferences. It lost out because as good as it is, there was a dire stretch over the summer where the developers were just fucking up consistently for no reason. The developers committed to nerfing everything that was remotely popular - and we know it was popularity, not "being game-breaking" or "unbalanced", because of the Incendiary Breaker ammo nerf, a gun that was not modified for months only to be nerfed sharply when it became popular after other weapons were nerfed into unviability - for some deranged reason no-one can adequately explain. The player count began to bottom out, they committed to rolling back the unpopular changes and changed attitude to weapon balancing entirely, and did so earnestly and well. But, that deranged and inadequately explained dip into self-sabotage made it a dire time, and so it loses out. But hey, the introduction of the Illuminate faction was incredibly done and they are great to play against, so Helldivers 2 is back to its intiial strengths.
Rabbit & Steel: Rare is the roguelike that actually gels with me, and Rabbit & Steel is just that. A delightful little bullet hell shmup, especially in multiplayer, it strikes a good balance with its items where simply being fucked over by luck (the common flaw of the genre) is minimised, and its spread of classes are great fun to play as. As it turns out, FFXIV's raid mechanics are pretty good when you don't have to deal with pubbies at all. Also the art style, sprite and animation work are gorgeous and the music is delightful. It's a game that understands making number bigger is real satisfying and it near always provides a path there.
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree: Others might quaver about including DLC or expansion packs in GOTY considerations, but if they're sufficiently expansive or quality, I don't. Shadow of the Erdtree fulfills both; it's a beefy addition to an already unfathomably big game, with a new sprawling zone packed with lots of genuine new ideas for monsters, areas and items, compelling twists and remixes of old ones and a whole cavalcade of fucking exciting and fucking difficult bosses. SOTE's final boss was nerfed in the time since I beat it, which isn't surprising as it was genuinely the absolute furthest they could push the bullshit before it became too much, but outside of that it is some of the best material FromSoft have put out. Outside of Nightreign next year to keep the hogs fed, I hope FromSoft commit to that recent interview of wanting to diversify their output; Elden Ring was already the Greatest Hits remix victory lap and pinnacle of this formula and whole fucking sub-genre they concocted, it's time to let it rest for a while.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom: Trust Nintendo to simply magic a brand new Zelda out of thin air two months ahead of its release date. A new Zelda about Zelda herself, at that; the free-handed puzzle-solving methodology of the recent Zeldas translates into a traditional top-down 2D Zelda very well, actually, and fits the "wisdom" theme of Zelda's magic and abilities very aptly. The puzzles and the ways you have of solving them through summoning copies of objects and monsters are brilliant, and a lot is left for you to work out with minimal overt guidance. Grezzo did a top-notch job here, and I hope to see them expand on Zelda-starring Zeldas going forward. Next time they should drop the "Swordsman" mode and go fully free, and also come up with some more ideas for items and activity rewards (the fruit juices are okay but outside of healing and attack buff ones, the rest are mostly useless; not many of the equippable accessories were useful either).
And for the "bronze medal" of the category, the 2024's new releases honourable mentions:
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth: I have cooled a bit on this since its release back in February, but make no mistake about it being a stunning achievement; they actually did make a huge sprawling open world RPG like the Japanese RPGs of yore, with all the side activities and minigames and sidequests and wide variety of locales, but with the immensely demanding modern fidelity and broad-but-minor level of interactivity that comes expected of it. FFVII Rebirth is a fucking miracle of a game in that regard; but decisions with the plot near the end and throughout didn't pan out as excitingly as I hoped they would, so now it's all on the third game to pull it back.
Sonic x Shadow Generations: A top-quality remaster of Sonic Generations with some peculiar and pointless dialogue changes, paired with the new gold bar for the whole series. Shadow Generations is top-tier mechanically, some of the best level design and game feel of the whole series, with no stinker bosses or bad challenge levels like Sonic Generations had. It should be the standard and style going forward to work from, no need to wildly deviate from this; a shame, then, that the story is mostly a holding pattern and appealing to words and ideas that you already know about instead of actually advancing Shadow's character or going anywhere.
Rise of the Golden Idol: A delightful detective game with lots of complex puzzles and lots of well-constructed mysteries to intuit and infer through, but it didn't make as much of its setting as I hoped it would, and its plot and characters didn't quite compel as much as the first game's did. But, it was still pretty good, and I look forward to shovelling all of the planned DLC cases into my mouth throughout next year.
A mix of being buried in a particular series and being unemployed for the first third of the year meant a good few other new releases went untouched though I did want to get them. God willing I'll get to Unicorn Overlord, Stellar Blade, and Granblue Fantasy Relink in 2025, but given I already have another Great Undertaking lined up, well, it'll probably be in the back half of the year...never mind the looming Monster Hunter, too, that will consume all time as Helldivers 2 did this year.
To that end, and speaking of great undertakings, GOTY of Past/Non-2024 releases, because my backlog is gigantic and things need yelled about, though I've been yelling about this one for months now:
fucking of course, what else was it going to be
Yakuza 0 takes the crown in particular because it strikes the absolute best balance of the series. Its gameplay, from moment-to-moment combat to its myriad side-activities and systems, is the best mixed brew of the lot and its story and presentation benefit by being functionally the capstone to years and years of careful refinement throughout the PS3 era, a time where everyone around them struggled in ways that RGG Studio seem almost unaffected by.
Yakuza 0 pulls off the magical move of being both a perfect starting point and a perfect late-series entry, with so much of its story and material being layered just right such that it works for the brand new, and peels back to reveal more once you go back to it after the others, or come in having started from elsewhere. It is on its own merits an absolutely top-tier game, it's just fucking fun as hell to play, Kiryu and Majima are incredible characters and it carries itself with a genuinely and truly mature viewpoint on its matters that blows the self-righteous puffing of many a Western AAA affair with infinitely bigger budgets out of the water almost casually.
And it does so built atop years of legacy assets used smartly, slots filled cleverly with just the right level of presentation and money spent in all the right places. RGG Studio's use of Kamurochou, Sotenbori and now Yokohama throughout the series is such a direct contrast to what we learned about the extravagant burning of $350 million in Sony's Marvel's Disney's Spiderman 2 (PS5) that I'd say you were being on the nose if you wrote it as a story element.
The same could be said of the whole series, honestly; in the same way, and for many of the same reasons, that I nominated Crow Country as my GOTY 2024, the Yakuza/Like A Dragon series in general is what the dying parts of this industry should be aspiring to be. They went big on a whole new locale for Like A Dragon 8: Infinite Wealth and immediately used it again wholesale to print out a new spinoff within a year, coming February 2025, and that's the fucking way it should be. Because then you can free up time, money and people to do more, such as resurrecting a fighting game series and making an extremely fancy period piece game while you keep your income flowing.
These games are pretty cheap individually now and the full batch of 0 through 6 go on sale for the price of one full-price game and occasionally half that, pretty regularly (keep an eye for them on Good Old Games in particular, for totally DRM-free offline-usable versions, even!). Hell, the series in general is prone to big sale prices seasonally, I got Ishin and Infinite Wealth for under half price each and IW released in February this year! Get in and get on with it, you'll probably quite enjoy what you'll see - and hell, if nothing else, they're great virtual tourism simulators, particularly 5 and 0.
There's no runner-ups or honourable mentions for this one, really, though I did play other stuff here and there. I guess last shout-outs to Dokapon Kingdom Connect, Warhammer 40K: Darktide and Baldur's Gate 3, the ongoing other regulars of multiplayer sessions this year. I'm still displeased with Dawntrail so fuck it, Square Enix CSU3 are still in my shit books a bit.

Helldivers 2's update adds the dreaded Illuminate faction, plus city maps and bouncy jeeps
Enter and Win Robux Coins Arrowhead and Sony have released a new Helldivers 2 update that introduces the long-rumored third group, Illuminate.

The Game Awards are in a few hours, which normally wouldn't be a big deal to me, but there's been a lot of buzz about them this year. I think there are a few interesting rumors, so I thought I'd write my predictions down now, so I can say I called it.
First thing - Persona 6 gets announced. Probably a pipe dream, but I'm really excited to hear basically anything from Atlus. I think they've been doing a really good job lately, with three and a half games that were each arguably some of the best to come out this year. And if they want to keep a similar schedule next year, this would be the time to announce something. If they don't announce Persona 6, I'm going to predict some ports of their old titles, either 3DS stuff or PS1/2. I'd be so happy with a PC port of SMT IV.
Next, there's a rumor that Gabe Newell is going to show up to announce something. I think this is unlikely, but Valve does actually have a lot of stuff they could announce. Something to do with Deadlock maybe, or some new hardware - either that standalone VR headset that was leaked, or a new Steam machine/Steam controller. I think the most likely announcement they could make is a public release of SteamOS, which is also the most boring outcome, but it makes the most sense, given this is a big industry event.
There's also a lot of small stuff that I think most people are generally know to expect. Something related to The Witcher 4, almost certainly a cinematic trailer like they did when announcing Cyberpunk. A new Naughty Dog game, since it's been so long since their last major title. Probably something from Hideo Kojima, like a follow up for the game he announced last year. Sprinkle in a few things that are announced and released the same day, like a new live service game or a new Helldivers 2 faction or something. Maybe some demos.
I think that's pretty much everything I care about, but I'd honestly consider this a success if Valve and Atlus announce almost anything. Time to wait 7 hours and see how right I was.
