Oh, thank you very much! Always nice to meet a kindred spirit. And even better that you loved MediEvil too! That game is so dear to me as well for so many reasons, so I always love to find other people that enjoyed it just as much as me.

Ah yes, another Souls fan! Awesome. It's been one of my favourite series for a super long time (hence the name I guess!), just can't be beat. Are you looking forward to the Elden Ring DLC next month?

I understand about your soft spot for RE5 and 6, I definitely think there is some appeal there even if they weren't for me! I was really excited to see a lot of the old characters in RE6, and it was nice to see Chris get his own game in 5, too. I completely agree about RE3 though, I was surprised to find that there even was Choose Your Own Adventure elements; the pressure certainly mounts when the important decisions are very life or death feeling. RE7 was much scarier than I was anticipating too, like wow. Talk about a departure! Ethan as a protagonist kept making me laugh with how seemingly unbothered he was for most of it, haha.

And yeah, I totally agree about FF2, it is unfortunately quite a boring game. Which is a shame because everything around it is great!

Hi there, thank you for the add! Nice to meet you. You've got some great choices for 5-star games! I hope you enjoy FF2, that's a game that I know people have a lot of thoughts on; for me I couldn't gel with it, but I do think it has one of the best OST's FF has to offer lol.

Now I know you have good taste since you like the Shrine od Amana, we are like, five? Yeah, among like five people who like that place, the atmosphere of it is unmatched in my opinion.

Bloodborne without question, I like all Fromsoftwares games, but the more unique the title is more I will find it interesting I believe. Got myself Dark Souls III recently and, it is definitely fun, but it feels very safe in a weird way, like we saw this five times before, sure, it is much more polished, but safe nonetheless. Most people like a safe and clean experience from the beginning to the end, but there is a certain beauty in an inconsistent and flawed experience, it is a weird thing to appreciate, for sure, but hey, I am just weird like that sometimes.

I see you gave Demon's Souls five starts so that also tells me that your taste is 🤌

Che figata la versione arcade di Super Contra, sarei tentato di dire molto meglio della versione NES ma in realtà mi piacciono allo stesso modo perché l'arcade ha dei controlli strani e un po' rachitici, mi ha fatto un po' bestemmiare ahah ma i livelli alieni spettacolari! Comunque molto più difficile della versione NES.

Mi piace eh, ma non mi dà l'hype animalesco del boss theme di Contra 1 ahah sarà anche valore affettivo, quel boss theme l'ho sentito un miliardo di volte da piccolo nella versione GB di Operation C (o Probotector che dir si voglia).

Per ora ho giocato la versione NES americana, ma devo dire che l'ho trovato molto più semplice di Contra, tieni conto che l'avevo giocato solo una volta su Switch... tre anni fa tipo, quindi lo conosco molto molto meno bene di Contra NES e Operation C, però tra extend generosi e poche trappole da bestemmioni è stato stranamente "facile".

Contentissimo di ributtarmi in questa collection comunque, quando la presi su Switch feci in tempo a fare solo Contra e Super C NES, poi vendetti tutto, quindi sono felice di rimediare soprattutto coi titoli a 16 bit.

That has gotta be one of the most positive opinions on Ds2 I have ever seen, glad you found some enjoyment in it!

I've yet to beat it, and also have never played Elden Ring, but I do like Dark Souls II and besides the "you need to pump points into this one stat to be able to have ANY i-frames at all" bullshit, I think it's a pretty fun time. Loved building Majula up.

I quit at Drangleic Castle for ??? reasons but if I play again I'll probably start from scratch.

So I was practicing the infamous Malenia boss fight.
One of my proudest achievements in From Software games is the fact that I never used any kind of summon, broken weapons or weird exploits. But just for once, while practicing, I was thinking about the doppelganger summon that EVERYONE never stop to talk about that you can use in solo.

He... He... He fucking stoled my victory. I feel so let down that I can't believe that broken stuff like this (without any specific setup) could've actually stun locked most of the time a super boss like this one.
Remember kids: winners don't do drugs.
Just practice and you will get good at anything.
I feel so sad that I cannot reload a save pre-Malenia with my stats and gear.

I listened to Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band as you suggested, and it is really good! Hard to go wrong with the Beatles tbh, I think I liked "Fixing A Hole", "She's Leaving Home", and "When I'm Sixty-Four" the most, but the whole album is great! I will have to listen to the individual songs you recommended soon, along with those Genesis songs too.

Oh also, I'm thrilled to hear you liked Demons and Wizards! I really like those songs too. It's a great bunch of music, that's for sure.

Hi, please let me know what you think of the music I recommended! I will let you know what I think of what you recommended.

Sicuro! Io il fumetto non lo conosco proprio, è sicuramente molto godibile. L'atmosfera è veramente bella e in generale il gioco fila liscio, però è veramente infame nell'esplorazione, bisogna abituarsi a perdersi ahah

As far as Uriah Heep albums, I'd recommend checking out <i>Demons and Wizards</i> and <i>The Magician's Birthday</i>. Demons is their most iconic album, either that or Look At Yourself or Sweet Freedom.
For individual songs, I'd recommend "Lady In Black" (from Salisbury), "Stealin'" (from Sweet Freedom), "July Morning" (from Look At Yourself), and "Sweet Freedom" (from Sweet Freedom), "Easy Livin'" (from Demons and Wizards), "The Wizard" (from Demons and Wizards), and "Sunrise" (from The Magician's Birthday).
And that's just their Classic Era stuff. There's tons of great music from beyond and around that time too, but I don't this to turn into an essay .

For Styx, I'm less familiar with their discography, but they have had a much smaller output than Uriah Heep at least. <i>The Grand Illusion</i> is the Styx album I'd recommend checking out. "Blue Collar Man (Long Nights)" and "Renegade" from Pieces of Eight are great too. "Lorelei" was one of their first hits. "Suite Madame Blue" is great too.

And just for fun, my fav Heep albums are Salisbury and The Magician's Birthday, and my fav Styx album is Equinox. Very unconventional picks. but I think that says something about my tastes haha

I really need to listen to more of The Beatles than I have. I think Genesis is a band my mom likes, actually, though I'm not familiar with them, tbh.
