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.

got a show tonight, wish me luck!

@Traitorb I wanna be able to customize my profile like I did my MySpace back in the day. I loved having a song that would play right when you visited my page. I think misskey might be able to do that?

I remember that Facebook used to be able to do that too because you could install custom widgets. Good times.

Building a high lethality ttrpg, cyberpunk themed. Any suggestions?

@Amongst_The_Ruins kenzie is fuckin awesome

@Hyperhidrosis @Fullmetal2255 clearly you've never heard of red vox

They have only gotten better since then too. That's just a great starter song.

I was looking up my city on Twitter and saw that an artist I follow lives here too. It's a pretty small city, I wonder if I know them irl lol.
