I debated whether I should buy Inquisition on Playstation, so at least I can try and play it on the sofa

Its £4.99, but I kinda dont want to buy the game again. Especially as i dont know how well playing it on controller works for me

..... Well today, thanks to something at work, I've ended up with a free £25 PSN voucher....

......... and nothing to spend it on ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

Dawntrail PSN players: DO NOT LOOK AT THE ACHIEVEMENTS

FFXIV Players on the PS - please be warned that there have been reports of spoilers in the achivements list. Recommend avoid if you do not wish to be spoiled

Every month I make it a ritual to read Yamato's "Pirate Ship Noah" again to fuel my soul with a pained joy.

If I could recommend any doujin to a new Zoro x Sanji shipper, it would either be PSN or Tiger 90113 (both contains NSFW contents though, so be aware) because oh my God, Yamato does such a fantastic job portraying these two as complex characters in a unique story that doesn't change their canon personalities or the absurdity of One Piece's world either. They're just in love with each other in the ways they know how, and I've yet to find many other doujin artists with that level of understanding towards the characters of a show they love.

If you ship Zoro and Sanji and over the age of 18, please go do yourself a favor and read all 5 chapters of Pirate Ship Noah. You won't be disappointed.

HELLDIVERS 2 STEAM REFUND REQUEST TIPS (how to maybe possibly get your money back)

IF YOU ARE REFUNDING, USE THIS AS YOUR REFUND MESSAGE: "The developers have announced that they will restrict my access to the game unless I sign up for and use a third-party service and account. This requirement was obfuscated at release and waived for three months, before it was announced as a REQUIREMENT to continue to play the game at all."

Use the reasoning "The multiplayer doesn't work" because, well, it won't, unless you make a PSN account (and give Sony those juicy active player numbers that they want so badly).

This request message was built off of some recommendations from folks on the Helldivers discord, as well as PirateSoftware's own refund request (source at 27:19), as he has WAY more industry knowledge than I do. As I understand it, the specific mention of THIRD PARTY SIGNUP is a HUGE red flag for Steam, they take it really seriously, especially since the requirement was obfuscated and waived for months so that we all missed our refund windows.

Even in worst case scenarios where we dont get money back, it'll still send a message to Valve and Arrowhead that Sony's bs is not okay.

And to think, we thought the bugs and bots were bad enough...

Okay so. Despite being a Pokémon performer, I have no clue how to make a proper introduction on this... Interesting website!!

Anyways, hello there! My name is Lune, I'm 18 and use any pronouns as long as they aren't feminine! I also happen to specialize in Pokémon performances! Which, I said that right above this paragraph. Oops.

UHM. Considering the fact that I'm definitely famous and not at all wishing I was, here's a little Q&A for my newcomers!

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

"Can we see your team?"

Why of course you can!

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

"What's your favorite type of Pokémon?"

Not an official type, but I like any and all space Pokémon! I get along with them exceptionally well! (Yes, Delcatty counts. To me. Because it evolves with a moon stone.)

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

"Why haven't I heard of you before if you're so famous?"

Uhm. Uh. Beeecccaaauuussseeee you need to go watch more performances of course!! It's definitely that!

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

"Why do you have so many shinies?"

Sometimes you have to suck it up and eat those terrible Paldean sandwiches. It works, but I did in fact get sick after eating them. I wouldn't recommend it very much.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

"What's that tiny Pokémon that looks like a galaxy?"

No clue. Showed up on my porch looking like a sopping wet Skitty. And I felt bad not taking it in.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

"Do you happen to have a twin named Solaris that absolutely dragged you on live television that one time?"

NO, I DO NOT. SHE IS NOT RELATED TO ME. DEFINITELY.

THAT'S ENOUGH QUESTIONS NOW.

(OOC under cut)

//Hello!! I'm Midnight/Castor (He/It/They) and I've been having the urge to make a non bba-related blog for a hot minute. So here we are! Rebranded a much older and inactive blog for this so :3

Follows come from @psn-stalling!!

Please no magic anons unless stated otherwise! Pelipper AND Musharna mail/malice is on! Though I might be picky, so keep that in mind!

ANYONE can interact with him! I promise that I won't get annoyed if you send in asks or want to interact as long as they follow my boundaries!!

In character hate is more than allowed! In fact, I actively encourage it as long as it's IN CHARACTER!!

Don't ask anything NSFW. If you do I'll block you immediately. There aren't any exceptions to this.

If I take some time getting to your ask/reblog, please don't take it personally! As active as I am on here I do get pretty busy sometimes, so it might take me a few. Sometimes I also get brain fog or am really tired due to medical issues, so that might be why! I also just sometimes don't know how to respond to things, so I apologize if that happens.

Thank you so much for reading this! This guy has been rotating in my brain for a hot minute so I'm excited to see where he goes!

Lune reference! (For now) vvv

Status Update: Furious.

The final 2 interviewees answered every single one of my questions the same. While the exact verbiage was different, there was zero deviation in response. There is no way to separate which of them is actually Ollie and which is a (potentially unwitting) accomplice.

Theory: Ollie mentioned there being a group chat with other interview targets. It is likely Ollie convinced one of them to share the questions and their responses so that they could imitate them.

I am, quite frankly, enraged. If I am correct then even during this last battle, Ollie resorted to cowardice and deceit to avoid any sort of actual confrontation.

I am 95% sure I know precisely which of these two respondents is Ollie. It is highly likely that, should I disclose their name to Director Cyrano, the person who receives this punishment will be the correct person. However, I will not ruin a person's academic career and potentially their life based on a probability.

I did everything correctly. I moved quickly and accurately, and I was creative and precise in my problem solving. This was a cheap trick which relied on dishonestly and plagiarism, and put their fellow classmate at risk.

I will not disclose Ollie's name. But know that I am nearly certain I do know what it is. I may not be certain enough to submit their identity to Cyrano for punishment. I am, however, certain enough that should I ever see them in person, I will administer the appropriate amount of justice myself. @psn-stalling, I strongly recommend you do not return to Unova.

I stumbled upon The Wanderer: Frankenstein's Creature and...oh, my heart, my heart. So so so good. So, so so so so tragic. Honestly. Loved every minute of it, heart broke so many times.

I believe it's on sale right now for PSN users, please pick it up and give it a go. If you're not a Gamer(TM) I still recommend it, most of it is simple choices and really really forgiving timing, but few and far between. General cw though for Deep depression and suicide potential in the game.

More thoughts and mild spoilers beneath the cut.

That image above is of the Creature seeing his face for the first time truly knowing what it looks like to other people. The way this game uses sound and ESPECIALLY color to convey emotion is unreal. It gives Gris a run for its money in that regard. (They're equivalent, I think, but this hit harder at times for me, but then I wrote no fewer than three papers on or around the themes of Frankenstein (or, rather, the idea of Monsters) for my degree)

Notice the tears in the reflection.

Anyway some thoughts I jotted down on twitter:

That discussion with the Creator, with all the drowning thoughts spinning...I chose, over and over again, "I have so much love" and it just broke my heart to see it all spin into despair.

When the villagers were throwing rocks I started mashing buttons because!!! Please! Get away! Protect yourself! And...I didn't know a choice was coming up. I "chose" retaliate, and watch the stone he picked up fly to the child's head, on accident both from him and from me.

I skimmed discussion after getting the Silentium ending because I had to know. If there was a calmer ending for the Creature. (No, not really. no.) In that skimming it seems you never can actually meet up with Victor Frankenstein...

But I hope that Creature found comfort in the one moment the game let me talk to him and tell him that it was an injustice that people spurned him when all he desired was love. I hope...

My brother is awesome. I hoped for a soundtrack for the game "Stray Gods" because I loved the demo but can't buy it now because I need new shoes... yeah, joys of being an adult... and he found the non-spoilery soundtrack on spotify.

I am now listening to it while deciding what to do today.

And if anyone needs a recommendation for an interesting indie game:

STRAY GODS!

It appears to be a kinectiv novel style from what I could tell from the demo, but it is a musical roleplay game and your decision influence the songs, and I fucking love Pan already because this voice.... fuck my life.

You can find it on Steam, on PSN and I don't know where else. It is just 30 Euros, so I don't how much it is in dollars, but must be roughly around the same.

Can you play Like a Dragon without knowing stuff about the rest of the Yakuza games? Your p5 comparison post made me curious

yeah!! i've never played any of the other games, i only happened to play this one because my flatmate has a psn subscription and it was one of the free games at some point lmao.

there's apparently some returning characters but more in a "oh look it's that guy, neat" way than anything plot relevant and the story is completely self-contained

i recommend it! it's great fun, and a really great example of an actually good open world game filled with actual shit to do. like, full on entire optional games within it like a management simulator and a mariokart spin-off lol.

two warnings though: the beginning is basically a cut scene simulators lmao. like, genuinely multiple hours of mostly cut scenes with very little gameplay... the story is interesting and the characters are fun, and as a persona fan i'm more immune to this phenomenon than most lol but even i was like "hey do i get to play the game at some point?" if you stick with it, it really opens up though.

aaand... it's really guilty of "for a dollar, name a woman". there is a female party member but you don't get her until way into the game and it's a total sausagefest before that. also very guilty of like. men get to have varied interesting faces and designs and women are all sameface generic pretty and feminine. i do really like the two major female characters in it but yeah... something to keep in mind

i'd still recommend it despite those drawbacks because it's so fun and goofy and legitimately some of the most i've genuinely laughed at a video game in ages. as well as the aforementioned reasons in the p5 comparison post :^)

[somechubbynerd]

another note on ac going a lil silly with every entry they were divulging closer and closer between the realm of mythology and history with orgins they took a step in the pond liked it and with odessy went full on if i could recommend a modern ac game its that one gold edition is currently on sell too for 20 bucks on the psn store

I was expecting that to happen eventually tbh, human history only goes back so far just because writing wasn't invented until we, like, needed it.

Back to the age of pure myth with Odyssey, huh?

[paranoodle]

btw i haven't really posted anything outside art here in a while but if you like murder mysteries i strongly recommend giving process of elimination a look, it's the best one i've played in a while and i had a great time.

there's a free demo on both the eshop and psn that's around 1h and covers most of the first chapter of the game (and a full gameplay loop) and it's very indicative of what the rest is like. the art is really nice, the music slaps, and the character writing is great

[davekat-sucks]

Completely forgot the homestuck games were coming to consoles, so when I opened the PSN, I got a jumpscare AND took psychic damage. So thats fun.

Can you really call Pesterquest or Hiveswap Friendsim games if they are just Western visual novels? Have people finally accepted visual novels as video games like they do in Japan? If so, it is about time. Now to recommend better visual novels like Clannad, Steins;Gate, Full Metal Daemon Muramasa, The House in Fata Morgana, Saya no Uta, Hatoful Boyfriend, Katawa Shoujo, Paranormasight, You and Me and Her: A Love Story, The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog....

I have a decent collection of physical PS4 games, though some are digital, these games are most prized ones. I decided that 2023 will be my last year of buying PS4 game (now that I have a PS5). This is my PS4 Hall of Fame.

----

Resident Evil 2 is my favorite game for the PS4. (Along with Final Fantasy VII Remake. But I got that digitally.)

Yakuza: Like a Dragon is more sentimental, as it was a Christmas present from my mom. Most of my games I buy for myself, but this is one of the few she got me.

Trails of Cold Steel is my favorite JRPG games besides Final Fantasy VII Remake and Persona 5 Royal for the PS4.

Klonoa is a precious game that sadly never got a physical version in North America. I imported the PAL version.

The Digimon games are very, very good. However, Cyber Sleuth is rare for the PS4 and it's not even on PSN. If you want to play the games, I recommend getting them on the Switch, as they are more accessible.

Aegis: 13 Sentinels is a surprisingly fun game. Highly recommended.

Crystar and Blue Reflection are my rarest games that are not Special/Limited Editions. I guess of low print runs and/or not that popular.

Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened

And within the same day, I beat another game. When my friend watched me playing, he commented how he recently read the breadth of the works and could not recall any scene in which Holmes walked on invisible rocks in a nightmare world, and that is because this game is melded with Lovecraft. It starts with Holmes and Watson investigating a missing servant and ends up with a cult set on resurrecting Cthulu. I think Chapter One remains as the studio's magnum opus, partially because The Awakened is actually a remake, and judging from the wikipedia article, they remained rather faithful to the original. Chapter One was pretty open world and there were tons of investigations to the point I felt I was stumbling upon a new one every block, whereas this has a linear and relatively short plot. I haven't played the original 2007 game so I can't say how they've updated the gameplay or clues, but I would put this on par with Chapter One in terms of difficulty. I didn't like how they dealt with the mind palace with the neurons dealing with small issues. I prefer all the clues laid out at once to show the overall picture, but I guess this game was just one case (as opposed to Crime and Punishment and The Devil's Daughter having a different case each chapter), so we would be left with one mind palace screen the entire time. There was also a lot of Watson action in this installment, and he wasn't a pain in the ass like in The Devil's Daughter so that was pleasant.

I'm willing to cut them all the slack in the world though because the developers reside in Kiev. I supported the Kickstarter for this and occasionally they would send apologetic emails about delays due to cut power from airstrikes and I'm like... it's OK. You're OK.

One interesting note is, judging from the wikipedia article, The Awakened deviates significantly from the original in chapter III, when the pair travel to the insane asylum. For one, Watson was supposed to be waiting on the outside whereas here he stays as a guest doctor and provides pivotal help in Holmes' plan. For two, the wikipedia article states, "Holmes unexpectedly discovers that his nemesis Moriarty is a patient, though a weakened shadow of his former self having survived the fall at Reichenbach. Using Moriarty as a distraction, Holmes extricates himself from the asylum." That is very different from what I played. Moriarty wasn't there at all. I'm bringing this up because of an interesting sidequest. In Chapter One, you can solve a bunch of crimes organized by this individual named "M," whom the player can easily deduce is Moriaty. In The Awakened, Mycroft asks Watson to investigate an agent of his, who is found dead and an M is written in his notebook in different handwriting. Upon reporting this to Mycroft, he immediately orders Watson to forget about everything and do not mention it to anyone, again hinting Moriaty. Considering this remake The Awakening takes place immediately after Chapter One, I'm wondering if the studio is leading us somewhere with this and there'll be another addition in the series where Holmes and Moriaty go head to head.

I did like playing it, but it's my least favorite in the series just because I'm not a big horror fan. I still say go for it, but I would recommend playing Chapter One first because they make lots of references to it, particularly when Mycroft talks about Sherlock's mental illness. (I wonder if that was in the original? They hadn't made Sherlock's dissociative disorders with Jon yet in this universe.) Just as I finished it, I saw they released The Testament of Sherlock Holmes on PSN, so I guess I gotta get that next. After, you know, Diablo IV, Tears of the Kingdom, and Final Fantasy XVI. Too many games released this year, man. Spider-Man 2 and Super Mario RPG is coming out later too.
