Unfortunately, the game's interesting concept is not carried out in a way I would consider "fun." The combat is extremely boring and severely lacks depth, with a system that only lets you attack when an enemy is close to you that can get really janky depending on enemy and player positioning, especially in conjunction with enemies that can't be attacked with physical attacks. All of the enemies are damage sponges even on the easiest difficulty, which I switched to in order to spend the least amount of time in the dreadful combat as possible while I trudged through this game. A lot of enemy types revolve around needing to use specific abilities, which require you to either wait for them to recharge or use specific combos to recharge them faster when you're attacking fodder enemies. It's an interesting idea for a combat loop, but like everything else in this game, it is extremely poorly executed and just ends up making everything feel like a slog.

The puzzles and platforming don't fare much better, and the segments where you're altering people's memories are extremely obscure in a way that is reminiscent of old school point and click adventure games. I had to look up guides for most of them due to how nonsensical and arbitrary they were, as if you were meant to arrive at the solution through either sheer luck or by the process of elimination

There were a couple moments where I genuinely could not wait to play again after a session. Some story hooks really intrigued me, and the atmosphere could be really great at times. However, most of the story is quite poorly written and it gave me the feeling of it being a rough draft that was written in sequence with whatever the writers thought was cool to put in at the time instead of getting multiple passes. Tons of characters sprout traits out of nowhere, some characters leave the story as quickly as they entered and never make another appearance which makes them seem wholly irrelevant, and holy hell... so many character and location names are the cheesiest, cringiest things I could have never come up with. It really feels under-cooked, like the writers wanted to make this world that was equal in size to something like the world of Cyberpunk but just could not cram it all in the scope of this game despite their best efforts.

At the end of the day, ironically, I wish I could forget ever playing Remember Me. It wasn't good. It had enough there to hook me initially into wanting to play it, but I was severely let down with the gameplay and story nearly every step of the way and I just cannot recommend anyone play this game over pretty much anything else they have in their backlog.

I found out last night that Varg Vikernes has made not one, but TWO TTRPGs.

what the FUCK

👀

TIL that Nintendo bred their own plant so they could call it Pikmin and ship it with 1/100 copies of the game. Absolutely insane!

holy fuck this is cool, it's just waaaay to expensive man $270 wtf

when bao is talking about choosing the bear over the man in the woods i think she's using it as a joke but y'all are way too caught up in just reacting super viscerally to it to take it that way. i'm absolutely certain that there is a problem with male content creators being cretins too, i mean you only have to look to people like mizkif, hasan, vaush, destiny, etc. to understand that. what about the dude who ran that one vtuber agency that was trying to get in all the girls' pants? that's what bao was talking about. i think shondo was calling the dude who made the callout tweet against bao a groomer because in her mind, she sees the guy as siding with and defending people like that because that's the context of what is being said. this whole thing seems like a massive miscommunication in an online society that is getting more and more abrasive of anything that even remotely addresses women's concerns due to how much toxic feminism shit has been piled on us for the last decade.
