Just tried Alabaster Dawn's demo for 5 minutes and I can already say, this game animates and controls like a dream

Also I personally don't count it as a metroidvania since each chapter takes place in a different area and there's little backtracking unless you're getting all the secrets.

@patstaresat.bsky.social Hi Pat, just watched the podcast and wanted to mention that while the original Astlibra uses bought/free assets, the art in Astlibra Revision has been redrawn by Shigatake (of Vanillaware).

Wasei-eigo

A single panel comic where three stickmen are reading manga on a monitor, with the currently visible panel depicting a nude shot of a female character alongside a narration reading "Even her style is good..." This makes no sense as you obviously don't have a "style" when you're naked, and the reason for this is a mistranslation borne from assuming that the Japanese word ใ‚นใ‚ฟใ‚คใƒซ (sutairu) is just the English word "style", when in fact its meaning in Japanese is actually "figure", as in "Even her figure is great" - the actually correct translation for the line in question, as it actually makes sense for a comment about a naked body. The first stickman understands all this and is going "Argh!" in response. The second stickman is unaware and is just saying "What?" The third stickman, slightly offscreen, is going off on a rant about how ใ‚นใ‚ฟใ‚คใƒซ is CLEARLY the English word "style" because they've learned just the exact dangerous amount of Japanese where they think they know way more than they do, resulting in confident proclamations about things that are very wrong. There is text under the panel, which says "If you really hate someone, teach them to recognize wasei-eigo mistranslations." The comic is titled "Wasei-eigo", and it was created by Daiz (of daiz.moe) and modeled after the xkcd comic strip number 1015. The manga panel featured in the comic is from a series called Goodbye Isekai Tensei.

I really don't like how the new DLC weapons handles but maybe it's just me.

I play Sciel in act 2 by giving her turn to the strongest damage dealer in the party (Dualiso can easily break chapter 2). I play Sciel in act 3 by giving her turn to the strongest damage dealer after she doubled their damage.

Try out the demo of Absolum (From the makers of Streets of Rage 4) and Ball X Pit (Breakout x Vampire Survivors), these two are my highlight of the latest Steam Next Fest

I do feel SoP's DLCs feels really weird to play on PC/when you have all the DLCs at once instead of getting them realtime on their release date because I just farm some good mission and then just skips a whole difficulty level. Feels way too quick compared to Nioh's, but maybe it's my fault as well

It'll rotate back in like a week. They only rotate the newer ones while the older ones are always available, so you'll see them in the store more often.

It's so goood. They evolved what made SoR4's dlc so fun and built it into a whole game. I can't stop playing the demo even though progress won't carry over to the full game

It's about the skill ceiling, especially once you start using Flux II and the postgame armor set bonus that buffs you on how much unique special attacks you do

My go to Nioh content creator (and Team Ninja in general) is PooferLlama and he said on stream that he's feeling very positive on it. He also has some concerns but also knows that it's an Alpha where TN had a history of not putting all the weapons & skills in them.

I definitely felt like it didn't add much from the NDS Igavania games. The RNG drops for the food materials also drove me crazy, but that's mostly just my OCD

The dev said that they believe the new price fits how much new stuff they added in, so I'm looking forward to more of your opinions on this game.

Man, I was interested in the game when it was in early access but decided to wait until full release since it was close at the time. To my surprise, the price has more than tripled on full release.
