I just finished and if we are going to make an re9 comparison i will say that Pragmata is definitely a more consistent game. It sets its quality bar at the beginning and never goes below that bar for substandard sections which i feel RE9 did

I am also someone who likes really deep and complex combat mechanics which this game has a lot of so I find that appealing.

I also feel like RE9 like every RE game runs out of steam about 70% of the way through. IMO pragmata does not. It keeps introducing new things be they enemies weapons mechanics abilities to let you backtrack metroidvania style for items in previous levels you couldnt get at first that also double as purposeful in combat etc. right until the final boss
Loved that place because the thrusters were still frustrating me while i was getting used to them at that point and the lack of gravity makes them way easier to platform with :lol:

Thats probably roughly about halfway through the campaign more or less.

We are 5 games up in the division

7 above the great Mets who have lost now 10 in a row is it?

Tied with the Padres for 2nd best record in all of baseball 1.5 games behind the dodgers
Keep an eye on them yes, allow them to spread their poison no at least imo.

As I said above though the game is fricking great. Big recommend from me.

Just know going in it’s very much a capcom game of their recent era. High substance, minimal to no bloat, lean run time, big on replay ability.

This time though the combat does have objective skill levels and heights you can reach unlike say resident evil if you’re so inclined
Saw something vaguely about this earlier

We can never just have nice fun things without freaks ruining it in gaming it seems. I just tried to not look to much into it and focused on finishing the game
Just rolled credits. Made an attempt to try to get every single collectible in all areas do all red zones and get all 3 prizes in each training stage. I didnt reach all of those goals especially in training but came in at 25 hours.

The game is really really good imo, it’s not some bloated AAA nightmare and actually has a post game to it. An absolute shite ton of skins you actually earn in game and a lot more

I’d describe the games combat in particular which is the main draw outside of the story which I’d say was pretty good as very high skill ceiling but a pretty easy to land at floor that will carry you through the game on standard if you aren’t inclined to get gud. It’s got a lot of DMC inspired game design and even some souls in there.

Most importantly because it is not 200 hours long the game is introducing new mechanics or weapons and new enemies to the literal end of the game. It has a massive amount of substance to it

For lack of a better phrase it feels like a video game or something a bit more arcade and I love that.

Overall it gets an 8/10 imo which was much better than I expected due to the very long dev cycle

I think he will round into form. He might never be the power hitter he once was and we paid for. More like a 20-25 hr a year guy
League you have been put officially on notice

Riley has arrived to join the already best (rated ahead of LA) offense in all baseball

Might wnt to just start planning for next season

Apparently the story is actually good if not a bit cliche about rogue AI

I think he has been pretty amazing so far

Yes this has been talked about a good bit.

I’m in total agreement Walt Weiss has been a major upgrade at manager. Snitt honestly came off as if he was just going off the vibes and Walt comes off like a man with job to do and a plan to get that fricking thing done

Ronald and Harris should not be guys we are allowing to use challenges especially burning them early in the game. Especially Harris but Ronald doesn’t have the greatest feel for the strike zone either. Ozzie doesn’t as well so just unless it is like a must have late game I would not let them 3 challenge
Grok (so take it for what it’s worth) says FF7 had the largest marketing budget in video game history when numbers are adjusted for the time period. Expected to have been in total spend around the world 2.3-2.5x the games actual budget to make

They wanted to pierce through and enter the very mainstream culture of the USA of the latter half of the 90s and by god they did it but it cost them more than we would ever dream
I’m just stoked we are getting a story heavily troped with the older man transporting the young girl through some
Horror or another keeping her safe and usually the father stand in is always rude and gruff and just not very nice, which makes sense for the last of us which kicked this off.

It seems in this game we are getting that trope again but the player character dad stand in represents what a more positive way he can impact her life while still keeping her safe.

We’ve been needing less cynical media. The most recent game of thrones spinoff knight of the seven kingdoms proved that beyond any possible doubt.

They made an earnest show about objective good and evil and what it means to be a good man. No moral relativism. We need those stories again

He’s not as bad as Harris but Harris has been a lot better with his approach to the plate this year.

The issue with Ronald is one that has plagued him on and off at times since he came up. He struggles mightily with fastballs at times and he is getting blown away by them now

When he has his highest highs like the mvp year he was at least a threat to do damage on fastballs so they couldn’t just throw that one pitch.

We are 2 wins below our wins expected and holding. That first stretch that ended with the road series against the angels we were supposed to win 11 by the numbers and only got 9.

These things still holding more than a game or two after means it expects us to pick those 2 wins up somewhere down the line in the season.

We are a top 5 team in baseball

Happy to have been wrong.

You could see it on Austin’s face when it cleared the fence. He had some bigggg built up frustration and it all just got released at once
