RWBY is Ok, but the 3D anime program they have to use makes a lot of the clothes and hair look stiff and unreal. :/

Of course, there's a reason for Blake's stiff bow, but still.

RWBY volume 1 had awful dialogue IMO, but it was pretty to look at anyway (particularly combat scenes). Vol. 2 was better.

And the music is generally great.

Guess who finally succumbed to the hype train and bought Undertale? That's right, me. It's very... Earthbound so far, if using "Earthbound" as an adjective makes any sense.

Yes. Good. JOIN US.

Earthbound in a good way, or a bad way?

[Igor]

That depends entirely on how you play. In other words: Spoilers.

I've played the game, as my previous messages might have indicated. I'm asking Ghoti.

[Ghoti]

A good way, definitely. Everything's quirky and original without trying too hard and the unique logic and mechanics are something I've never really seen before. I'm trying to make my first run a pacifist run buuuut honestly I'm so bad at the bullet hell segments I might go neutral just so I can have more than 20 hit points. (I'm currently stuck on Undyne, who's one of my favorites so far. And yes, I've already spoilered myself rotten because I'm an impatient child.)

I think the best way to sum up Lego Dimensions is its like if you are a 9 year old kid again and have all the Lego you want.

Who wouldn't have Batman fight Lord Sauron on top of a Dalek flying saucer?

Yes that's a thing that happens. Also Saruman on top of a giant snake.

Oh the storyline Doctor Who level, A Dalektable Adventure? Middle part is a Lego survival horror game with Weeping Angels. Yep.

OMFG, I think I need the PS3 version. <3

Undertale update: I outran a fish woman with a shit ton of magic spears, got my ass handed to me by a training dummy (three times!), and now I'm laying on the floor feeling like garbage with my ghost friend. 10/10 best game ever.

Leave the first CD at the ghosts place playing,  leave the house and faff around in the save point area until you get a random encounter. It'll be great.

How did you discover that?? That's hilarious, I wish I could carry a boombox or something so I quit getting random encounters.

KH 2.5's Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix part is fiendishly difficult in some places (I am looking at you, Scar). Still incredibly enjoyable.

The original version of Kingdom Hearts 2 was pretty damn easy, but yeah, the new bosses they added were pretty tough. Especially Roxas. That was an annoying fight.
