Ya ha ha! (or, the video games thread)

I have Soma but for some reason never played it, are we doing a game club or something? I'd be down with that

[smashingjj]

it's worth playing for sure!

I don't know what a gaming club is, it sounds like social interaction, which disgusts me

I beat it hey-yooo

The first game is like $13.50 on Steam right now so I just bought it. Hopefully it is as good as 2. The fighting dynamics were a little weird in the game I just beat, but I think it's more classic Baulder's Gate-style in the original, so that's good. Basically in 2 you have physical and magical armor and no crowd control works until they are broken (so no sleep, poison, charm, etc) so you have to do a ton of damage to start with no matter what, and you kinda start focusing on physical or magical and not both because you have to break each armor for the relevant type of damage to work. I made it harder for myself and tried to not only focus on one, and I like that they tried something different, but if they make a third one I'd rather they either stick with something else or lower how much armor people can have because it got kind of ridiculous in the end.
