![]() Bloodborne: The Card Game came out on the heels of FromSoftware’s 2015 masterpiece. This weekend, I’ll be putting down the controller and picking up a couple of dice. I am once again using this space to talk about Bloodborne, but this time with a little bit of a twist. Play it On: A table or other hard, flat surface Kenneth Shepard Bloodborne: The Card GameĪ screenshot of a trailer for Bloodborne the Card Game shows rendered cards.Ĭurrent Goal: Screw over my friends until they succumb to Rom’s wrath I have to reclaim my honor and my title as the best Street Fighter player in my circle, or they’re going to find out I’m a fraud. I’ve been playing a little here and there, but it’s clear not only have I gotten rusty, but people I bulldozed over with a hadoken have improved in my absence.Ĭlearly, this cannot stand. I successfully convinced people I was an above-average Street Fighter player, but now that I’ve been away so long, the facade is fading. I dumped hundreds of hours into Street Fighter V while they were playing better fighting games, so I had a distinct advantage going into Street Fighter 6. ![]() With other responsibilities pulling me away, I’ve not been able to dust off the theoretical fight stick (I play controller, sorry) and get back to training.Īt one time, I was the best Street Fighter player of my friends. It’s the nature of the job that sometimes you want to spend your time doing other stuff, but Clive Rosfield’s crying about his brother, and you’ve gotta tend to him so you can write about it. Play in on: PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Windowsīecause Final Fantasy XVI and Master Detectives Archives: Rain Code pulled me away, I haven’t been getting my Street Fighter 6 rounds in. ( Check out their take on Mario Kart.) Sonic Robo Blast 2 is amazing. Yes, there’s a huge modification scene creating mods of a fan game that’s a mod of Doom. I’m looking forward to going back in to co-op the rest of the (still-in-development) campaign, and then exploring the wide world of Sonic Robo Blast 2…mods. We had a good time, though most of us got lost in the sprawling levels, and we didn’t know Tails could pick up us less fortunates for impromptu flights. We had two Sonics, a Knuckles, and a Tails, and let me just say you’re playin’ hard mode if you choose the ground-bound hedgehog. I rounded up some friends to co-op the main campaign, and we got about two-thirds through before we had to adjourn. It’s only gotten better since, and the game is legit beautiful now, in a distinctly retro way all its own. When I first checked it out…oof, decades ago, I was tickled by its weird mix of 2D characters, 3D Doom-style maps, and surprisingly satisfying 3D platform action. And it runs on the freakin’ (heavily modified) Doom engine! ![]() This sprite-based, 3D Sonic the Hedgehog adventure dates all the way back to the late ‘90s, and development is still going strong today. Sonic Robo Blast 2 (it’s free, go get it) has to be in the running for most impressive unofficial fan game of all time. Ethan Gach Sonic Robo Blast 2Ĭurrent goal: Finish main campaign in co-op But after a few weeks away to finish Final Fantasy XVI, I’ve been missing it, which is a nice problem to have with Diablo. It’s an incredibly old-school action-RPG in many ways, for better and for worse. But I hate the oppressive feeling of being on a treadmill that’s exacerbated by enemies scaling to your level, and the fact that loot cycles so quickly you never really get to lean into a coherent build for very long earlier on. I love the feel of the world and the moment-to-moment loop of managing cooldowns to hack and slash my way through dungeons. I love and hate Diablo IV, which is not an uncommon reaction and also part of why I didn’t finish it back in June. I spent a couple dozen hours on the first two chapters but really need to get down to business and try to cruise through the rest of the story, even if that means dropping things down to World Tier 1. I never really stopped playing Diablo IV, but I’m really going to be diving back in this weekend as I try to finally wrap the game up ahead of season 1 dropping on July 20. Play it on: PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Windows A player character sets their foes on fire.
