  • This is good, and I’m glad he’s being charged. I hope Norway continues this trend.

    That being said, I feel like there’s something odd about being proud of charging a rapist (granted, he is a rapist in power so him being charged is a very good thing) when there are people like the former prime minister who probably raped kids.

    Idk, it seems like a hollow victory — my sense of justice is telling me that so so much more needs to be done, and it needs to be done yesterday.








  • I don’t disagree that comparing DMC and the old GOW games is fair — they occupy the same space. Reducing a soulslike to dodging and parrying is just wrong, though. Actually reducing a hack and slash to aggression and dodging is also wrong, see Royal Guard.

    Freedom of movement, build options (you are free to turn yourself into the heaviest thing in existence compared to a gymnast, and that’s only discussing equip load), map design, the robust lore as opposed to a traditional narrative, these are staples of soulsbourne games. DMC3 has a harder parry than any soulslike in Royal Guard — does that make parrying a staple of the series? Yes, it does — Royal Guard is cool as shit.
