the blog of a disabled mother who likes to game, and "get in the pit"
Normally I would cringe at the very idea of incorporating something that was clearly made by AI in any manner of what I do, but… for some strange reason I actually like this pic, in large part because it’s Auron.
I like this game because it’s part of the Parasite Eve series, but I also feel like this game took the whole franchise in a new direction and that new direction was not good. This is an excellent video explaining it.
Listening to music from the old Tales… games lately (how do I parse that? “Tales…”? “Tales of…”?) is getting me to want to play some of the old games in the franchise, continuing to hold out hope that a few of the older ones are remade for the newer consoles even though we continue to have a lot of our old consoles and the game discs that came off of them. I’m also taking the time to go through my younger son’s video game collection as I try to do at least twice a year, because there’s no use in holding onto too many copies of some games not able to make room for others. And I really, really want to replay some of these, especially retro.
I played the first remake of it that came out but now own it on a few other consoles, and it’s been tempting.
As much as I do wish that the planned DLC had actually been completed aside from in book form, I’m getting around to this at some point. We have it on the Steam Deck, which makes it great to play while commuting.
