Certified foxgirl enjoyer. Weeb, but hasn't properly watched anime in ages. Gamer of incresingly niche subgenres. Aficionado of racecars, mechas, fighter jets, and any other vehicles you can think of. Lives in the wrong side of the planet compared to all my friends.
Made accounts in 278 different instances in the Fediverse after escaping Reddit, is still kind of lost. Doesn't know how hashtags work.

The last few years of remasters have amazed me with how much they HAVEN'T added emulator features even when the game is blatantly being emulated. Some of them miss save states or practice modes (particularly shmups) or proper key rebinding on the controller. I have 6x more buttons than the game originally needed, let me actually use them.

I also don't preorder, and I DO buy basically all FromSoft games on release because I know they'll be bangers. But I've been burned before with Dark Souls 3 suddenly increasing in price by 50% in my region right before launch. I'm torn. I guess I'll wait and see, again.

Emulators or just straight up portable platforms like a Nintendo Switch, are the one grace for gaming on the go. I've given up on phone games too.

Gundam Battle Operation 2. Wanted to see if they fixed the matchmaking, and it's not as bad now.
Chunky heavy robots is my jam but the netcode is terrible...

Honestly I never even knew people didn't like this term, wtf. It properly conveys the idea of an old-fashioned FPS game, with basic 3D graphics, many times based on 2D sprites. Me and all my friends play them, and we love them, and we all call it "Boomer Shooter".

You should try out Omega Strikers! It's free to play, but it's done right imo. Very fun game of ball, 3v3 air hockey with anime characters. I'm usually super averse to PvP games and ranked modes, but even I'm trying to climb the ranked ladder in this one, it's so much fun.

Mint chip, all the way!

Is it already that time of the week? Well, I'm still playing BOTW, Dead Cells on my Switch, Dawn of War Unification mod on the PC, and some Omega Strikers on the side, slowly climbing the ranked ladder. I'm thinking I can make Gold rank before the end of the season.
Also taking a moment to get back into shmups, I popped onto Mushihimesama and Dodonpachi yesterday and I wiped before even the third bosses, I'm super rusty.

I am prepared to pirate every single game I bought on that platform if that comes to happen =/
