Pretty spot on video.

I just ordered the plushy because it's on sale and I love Chewnic so much. I love the fox.

Third Eye Blind - Self-titled

Leonard Cohen - Songs of Leonard Cohen

Deftones - White Pony

Tool - Aenima

Gorguts - Considered Dead & The Erosion of Sanity (dual album re-release)

There could be a lot more, but these ones in particular all stand out from key moments or periods of growing up.

I haven't played very many, and these might not be pure Metroidvanias, but I recommend:

The Messenger

Pseudoregalia

Tunic

Bloodthief

I followed the dev logs on Youtube and learned a few Godot tricks from them. Got this on day one to support the dev and indie scene and just started playing. It's a blast. Fast paced hack and slash parkour action. It feels extremely satisfying to clear a room of enemies as you whip around.

I'm sorry, I don't make the rules

Every time you switch you have to peel off a layer of dead skin line a cocoon.

The only gripe I have with the game is that it's, once again, stuck on a platform that probably won't be releasing its clutches from it anytime soon

This. I, ahem, found a way to play the original, and it was good. If I saw the remake was available on PC I would gladly buy it.

From what I've seen of the remake it looks great. Maybe because I'm new I don't have nostalgia to get upset about due to the changes.

Lunacid. Just finished 100%ing it and I'm impressed. I wasn't expecting to get so much out of it, but it took nearly 40 hours.

Might help to specify as there's more than one artist called "desired". The Sailor Moon enthusiast?

The website whosampled might help you in your research. For example, https://www.whosampled.com/Desired/Wake-Up/

Which songs were sampled in "Wake Up" by Desired? "Wake Up" contains samples of "いつかゆられて遠い国" by Mioko Yamaguchi.

Still working on Lunacid, trying to get the 4th and final ending. Some of the loose ends I was wondering about are kinda coming together in the end game hunt for each ending, which is great.

Dex has some cool weapons, but it's gotta be STR as the favourite. No STR, no bonk.

We have Scholar at home

Serial Experiments Lain. So good, kinda bittersweet, lots of fever dream mindfuckery.

Trying to understand the question, I'll try my best.

I don't really write except for out of necessity at work, maybe taking occasional notes, and writing my meal plans and grocery lists. Most of that is not by hand except for the meal plans on a whiteboard on the fridge.

My mind says what I want to write, slowly enough for my hand to keep up. If I'm typing on a keyboard then it's closer to a natural speaking speed. My mind doesn't really wander because I'm either too focused on the physical handwriting, or whizzing through typing up an email.

I don't really pay attention to how it looks in the moment, but always notice when I'm done writing by hand that it looks almost exactly like it did when I was 5 years old and first learned to write. Bonus if a few letters or words turned out looking accidentally more adult-written, but it's a fluke. I do pay attention when typing and catch typos in real time, then correct them when I'm done the sentence.

Writing isn't my outlet. I have other things for that.

Ergonomics aren't usually a thought unless I was writing something long by hand, which is rare since finishing school.

Yellow cat red cat.

I think this one is about a blue cat

Jumping.

We have the technology.

Elden Ring set the bar for every soulslike after it. Sekiro too, but it didn't have as much of a reach.

It's a whole nother dimension to combat and exploration. It's the clear evolution of the next generation of soulslikes. It's even kind of weird to think about how popular these games are without a jump, while jumping has been in other genres for decades.

I'm all for it. A more experienced player told me it can be used to climb and it kinda blew my mind.

I just went and added to a few!

I'm working on Lunacid. It's not really a soulslike imo, but it is inspired by Shadow Tower and King's Field according to the developer's description on Steam. I'm also seeing a lot of other fromsouls influence, especially Demon's Souls and DS1. Having a blast and recommend it.

Least favourite optional boss is DS1 Demon Firesage. It's a rushed filler reskin of a boss where a boss isn't needed. The arena sucks because of the branch collision. It's not even much of a challenge otherwise.

The Final Fantasy Tactics remake. I never buy new games, but this one is special to me and I wanted to vote with my wallet to praise them for finally releasing it for PC. They did a good job with updating it, too, so I'm happy.
