Yep. I got P5 Royal but haven't started it AND P4 Golden just came out on Steam. There's LOT of levelling up in my future.

I know HZD uses a custom engine (which was then used by Kojima for Death Stranding as well) rather than Unreal like a lot of games use these days. (Apparently Death Stranding using the engine is the reason HZD is getting a PC port. Not sure of the specifics, but the deal meant Guerilla games could convert the engine for PC use.)
FF7 Remake is also very pretty, though there's issues where the textures don't load in properly in some instances so you'll have things like flowers and doorknobs that look like they're from 20 years ago right next to super-detailed textures.
After playing FF7 Remake I really want a remake of Chrono Trigger using the same graphics style as the current Dragonball Z games (since it's Akira Toriyama's art in both.)
Oooh, cel-shaded 3D Chrono Trigger. Yeah, that would be cool.
Wouldn't it, though? My brother loves the original as much as I do, but thinks a remake would be a much harder sell than FF7, because it doesn't have nearly as much name recognition. I'm thinking now is the best time to do it. Dragonball is hot again because of Super and I'm sure you could rope in those fan boys with "You get to play as a red-headed Goku with a katana who can also blast people with lightning."
Played a little life is strange today. I like it! I have it in steam but will likely mostly play it as a phone game using GeForce now.
Finished episode 1 of life is strange. It's interesting. I have never played any of these narrative interactive novel type games, but I'm digging this. I think when I'm done I will maybe check out Kentucky Route Zero and play it the same way if I can.
Oh, I've heard good things about KRZ. Never tried it though. I've played all the way through the first Life is Strange - I liked it a lot, although the last episode and some intense stuff in it.
I think this was suggested before and now it seems a bit awkward, but would there be interest in playing an in-thread game of Pandemic? I could run it and provide links to screenshots after each player goes. It wouldn't be a fast game.
I'd be interested! A little irony is good for the blood.
Awesome! A couple more and I'll do it.
