She revives all fallen allies and they can participate in the chain attack. So heals are garunteed. Soul hacker is def legit once you get the high lvl skills

SMT5 seems extremely weird and I am totes mcgotes here for it.
Again I would like to praise the ease at which you can rip switch games to PC. SMT5 and XC are clearly held back by the switch. Its really noticeable in SMT5. The shadows and the jaggies made me go straight to ripping this one as well. Now instead of 720p/30fps I am playing in 4k/60 with upgraded textures/shadows and increased LOD. Also scaled back the ambient occlusion that made some things look...weird. Honestly all of this is making me think about a steam deck so I can still kick back elsewhere and play but also get better settings. |

About to be heading to Bayonetta 3. So the breakers is finally gonna get a break.
Also is the steam deck worth it. Been considering it even if only for Fire Pro. |

I purchased the steam deck because i wanted to be able to play steam ttiles on my tv. For that alone i think its worth it. As far as the handheld devide its very well built and has all the functionality youd expect from what is essentially a gaming laptop. If you play exclusively on desktop there's no need for it but i love the device a lot.
@figgy I have the latest fire pro but i havent had time for it. Huge backlog atm. @seph you should be fine with smt5 then. QOL alone make it the best in the series for my money though the super boss is more cheap than difficult. |

fyi wait for a sale on fire pro dlc. They are definitely overpriced, but worth it if you can catch them on a discount.

SMT5 is fun and is scratching my completionist itch in that I have to have every monster in my compendium. I will catch and/or fuse them all damnit, just like I did in Persona 5.
Wonder if they have the giant dick riding in a chariot again lol |

man i was at the store to get it as soon as they opened and these fucks dont have it out yet and wouldnt go get it from the back. Too busy standing around looking at their phones.
I wonder if they'll like it later when one of their bosses gets on their ass about it because they were behind schedule and refused to take 60 seconds of their time to help a customer that just so happens to be her husband lmao. I told her not to worry about it of course because it's not a big deal but shes the kind of person that will use it to go make a point lol |

Star Trek: Prodigy- Supernova.
Simple game. Full cast audio though and a good story. It's not Pizzarific but it's not bad. |

No clue how late to this dance I am, but Godfall.
God damn, how did I NOT hear about this game before now?? This shit is AMAZINGLY fun and I find it rather unique when trying to compare it to similar titles. I get a lil bit of Destiny, Elden Ring and World of Warcraft//Diabloish vibes from it. The combat is so fucking fast and furious and GORGEOUS. Only gripe thus far is the main characters voice is so LOUD compared to every other voice in the game. Seventh Sanctum nearly whispers in comparison. |

Godfall was my first PS5 game at launch.
The reason you haven't heard about it was because it was pretty universally considered to be trash. That said, I thought it was OK. But just OK. |

Hmmmm, not going to watch//read reviews right now as I just want to "experience" whatever is thrown my way.
So far though, it's a pretty good looter chase game. Without reading//watching, I'm sure the complaints are: * Not enough content * Too much of the same grindy stuff * More variety and other such generic complaints that always hit 99% of looter chase games (like Diablo for example). Got the game and expansion on sale for $40, so not terrible. If the endgame grind is too damn boring, I feel as though I have my monies worth already. |

I think it was just over hyped with expectations. I will pick it up though once I get a ps5.

Expansion helped it a lot is my understanding. The vanilla game was super thin in content. I never got back around to it to play the expansion though, other games had my attention by then.
Really, it seemed like one of those games where they cut a lot and kept it simple at the time in order to make the console launch. 6 more months of polish and padding out the content/endgame would have done WONDERS for it. But that can be said for a shit ton of games these days. |

And yeah it was definitely WAY overhyped as it was, if I recall, the ONLY new exclusive game at launch this generation. Every other exclusive and launch title was already available on the last gen consoles.

I don't own a Playstation, maybe that's why I never heard of it.
Oh well. It's mindless fun for the time being, and I can PAUSE the fucking game (for now) |

Oh yeah, that would explain why you hadn't heard of it for sure. It was exclusive to PS5 (and PC, but games really get lost in the shuffle there) for like the first 18 months. By the time it came out on Xbox there was not nearly as much attention on it.

The only reason I even knew about it and was hyped for it was its status as the lone PS5 exclusive at the time. I wanted something to show me what my shiny new console could do and it was the only thing available. I played the absolute shit out of it that first 6 weeks until I got Immortals: Fenyx Rising and AC: Valhalla for Christmas.

Currently playing Microsoft Minesweeper..... Expert mode 30x16 board, 8 spaces to go, 4 mines left.... near as I can tell there is no logical way to find out where the mine is... essentially have 4 50/50 chances.... Well, I guess 3.... one of them if I pick right would help me find one..... nothing to do now but just go for it....
Phew... chose right, 2 mines left.... but now it is legit two 50/50 percent chance.... Can I get lucky two times in a row.... The answer is no... RIP Lock Jaw.... died on the last two mines in a minefield.... |

If the OG game ended when you kill Macros, yeah, short AF. Did that last night. Fun fight though, took me 3 attempts with a greatsword and hammer.
The soulflame stuff is fucking cool though. Dude came in and just fucked up seventh sanctum like it was a gnat. Looking forward to the new shit |

I finally beat it but yeah, required 10x the strategizing that other fights (including Shiva) did. Farmed some essences to increase by resistances, primarily for the mobs he summons and grimoires to max my party levels. Resists don't seem to matter with the demi-fiend itself because it'll either use almighty attacks or put impaler buff on to negate your resists before hand. I tried to ignore the adds so they would bounce attacks off me and end the enemy turn faster and only really focused on taking out any healers/buffers he summoned. Had someone to dispel debuffs and apply buffs and 2 people at all times to be able to cast full party heal and use mana pots on each other. Made sure to have a whittled goat item and enduring soul on everyone for the auto save/full heals in case he did some dumbass move that would wipe everyone. Finally got it handled with Main, Shiva, Vishnu and Sandalphon, popping Baal in when someone died.

Immediately fused his essence in for the cheater ass skills he has, ie Gaeas Rage and that one almighty AOE attack as well primarily. Went back and whacked him again with the same strategy after that and then fuses his essence again for the resists to everything except almighty.
I considered farming him a few more times to give everyone those resists but fuck that, I don't feel like doing that grindy ass battle any more after the first 2 times. |
