as someone who hasn't played tetris since owning a gameboy as a babe, this has been an absolute trip. your mileage may vary if you're not interested in multiplayer (local, online, or just steam friends), challenges, and many variations upon the same theme. or if you're just not into the general music selection and/or 'connectedness' as a motif.

it's tetris. you like tetris or you don't like tetris. if you ever liked a tetris you'll like tetris

THEY NERFED TIFAS punches HER punches WERE SO MUCH BETTER THAN THEY ARE NOW WHAT THE heck SQUARE

Despite Sega's atrocious DLC policy and the YongYea voice that hopefully I won't hear much of (because you shouldn't be playing without Japanese voiceovers), it's still THEE promised sequel.

After spending 100+ hours on my first playthrough and as someone who has played most games in the series, I can say it's a top three Yakuza AND JRPG. Incredible this is in the same span of time that Baldurs Gate 3 and Final Fantasy 7R2, Persona 3R, Shadows of the Erdtree...we're just spoiled right now.

Although the actual game mechanics are dated and it starts as a pretty clear tribute to Misery and Twin Peaks, it does eventually become a more interesting narrative.

Fortunately or unfortunately, Alan Wake 2 makes the original feel vastly inferior, and thus was not a massive pleasure to come back to in 2023 - if it wasn't for said narrative, of course.

Metal Gear: Ground Zeroes, except about 40 hours worth of content.
Now the official best introduction to the series.

10/10 aises on my boner

What you may have heard before and is true: This is probably the best and/or most standalone Soulslike / Bloodbourne experience I've played yet, and actually has a story!

What you may have heard before and is NOT true: This game is very difficult! / This game is too easy! It's just right baby.

What you may not have heard before or may not know: This game does the whole "flashing red attack" differently than the previously few Soulsbournes so you might want to read the tutorial closely or look it up specifically online, but we're talking "cannot guard or iframe" not "cannot perfect parry or dodge out of the way if you do it properly"

What you may not have seen or may not experience: I also had a number of weird glitchy moments, achievements not popping for items received, achievements popping before gathering all the required items, quests not being able to complete because you did something slightly out of order - you know, traditional FromSoft experiences.

sometimes you're on drugs and you're like "this requires more/different drugs" and this is a great example of "whoops"

there was no post nut clarity AND it's just not a very competent metroidvania
