Yuru Camp S2E1 with the comfiest first two minutes of anything in existence < 3

1) God of War (2018/Platinum/98ish%) I ended up having a lore piece glitch on me so I never bothered 100%ing. Platinum wasn't needed for it anyways. I prefer the old-school style of gameplay, the over-the-shoulder view leaves you a little too open to being easily hit (Valkyrie fights especially could be pretty bullshit because of this). I played on Easy so it wouldn't be a problem but it'd probably be aggravating as hell on harder difficulties. Otherwise, what a great game. I was expecting the reboot to be a huge departure from the series and instead it was pretty much the same formula but expanded. The setting was fucking awesome, mostly good characters (Atreus had some nice moments but mostly came off as Anakin-in-Episode-1 to me), satisfying kill animations. I'm pretty hype for Ragnarok/whatever the sequel is now

EVIL is fucking bizarre. LIJ was the perfect spot for him because he's great when he wrestles crash-and-bangers and not so great when he wrestles "skill" guys, and LIJ was full of skill guys that he'd maybe wrestle once in awhile in the G1 or the NJPW Cup and spend the rest of the time crash-and-banging with Ishii and Shingo and Goto and all of them. The turn forced him to feud with a bunch of skill guys Him and MJF are #1 and #1a best heels to me, and the gun-to-my-head choice is more based on which promotion is putting on a show that particular night. (Jericho and El Phantasmo are 2 and 2a because they're a special breed of obnoxious prick on-screen and man do they rustle my jimmiejams)

Asta's post-timeskip design upsets me

Oh, also also

Oh also, once you're finished Night 2

Of the Gods

Probably on STARDOM's service But yeah, Okada/Ospreay blew the rest of'em out and it was always gonna be that way. I think Ibushi/Jay White was way better than it had any right to be for a match that long. I think Jay's very good in the ring but does nothing spectacular, but his heel shit is where he's spectacular. Multiple times in that match, I'd say "This fucking prick" at the heel shit he did :nono: Him or MJF are the best heels in wrestling

Shooby dooby doo Shooby dooby doo Da doooo

Dr Giovanni sure became a top-tier creeper

Ospreay/Okada

That fucking Missile Dropkick, holy shit

I like the double dome because every match gets to be a huge feature (and it's probably going to get mashed together with STARDOM eventually), but I hope if the double dome becomes a regular thing, this two-day-tournament deal that they've run two years in a row now goes away. IC Title gets one night, IWGP Heavy gets another (which I think they might also be working towards, we'll have had the IC Title contended for two years in a row now in three of the four main events)

Tana vs O'Kahn

TBH I don't know if we're gonna get to "great", the fans are still in "scream inside your heart" mode.

KENTA vs Koji is about what's expected of the two at this point in their careers. Probably better for the Japanese audience because Kojima's a bigger star.

Shit, did I spoiler that part?

TO-KYO PREEEESON I'M GOING TO RELIGHT YOUR FEE-RING

I popped in just in time for Dangerous Tekkers vs GoD. I'll have to go back and watch the NEW JAPAN RAMBO and the Hiromu vs ELP later Also I'm super impressed with that tag match because they made a Heel vs Heel match work.

Bought/Received: - 1 TB PS4 Hard Drive en route to replace the one that failed on me (it was nice enough to wait until I'd Platinum'd Horizon) - Nier Automata Game of the Yorha Edition: Tossing that on the backlog pile because I want to replay Nier Replicant first and that's not even out yet - Nioh Season Pass: Just because it was on sale and it's almost never on sale - Rise of the Tomb Raider: Loved the reboot, def want to play this eventually - Doom 64: Also mean to play the old-school Doom games eventually Playing: - :SNES: Mario Picross: Only have a few sets of puzzles left. Tired of the late-game puzzles so I'm gonna use FAQs from here on out to finish it off (it'll bother me if I don't complete it) - :nes: Fire Emblem - Shadow Dragon and the Sword of Light: Turn Rewind and Bookmark functionality makes this game playable (and I still managed to lose the opening 5 rounds of a new map because I re-loaded a bookmark and it was near the end of the previous map ) . In the DS version I did end up losing some units, gonna see if I can make it through this OG game without losing any - Genshin Impact: Or I was playing it before the PS4 exploded ;_; The new region expansion doesn't look like it added any new trophies, though. - Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride: Monster recruitment might be addictive

God of War (2018): Easy-moding because the combat doesn't feel as good as the OG games (it's probably the behind-the-shoulder camera angle tbh). I'm really surprised at how much the levels do feel like next-gen God of war, though, they're built so well and it's so fun trying to explore every little nook and cranny

Oh shiiiii didn't realize Season 5 was already going First 2 eps

Shingeki My Keki

Yeah, but it also leads to a situation with one night where you get a 6 hour show and go "Man, that should've been longer because half of these badass matches didn't get enough time"
