Roblox and Steam shouldn't even be used in the same comparison.

Roblox is only linterested in the kids of hands-off parents. -
Metroid Dread studio's latest is Blades of Fire, a brutal blacksmithing action game with a cruel Dark Souls coreMetroid Dread's difficulty was wack, in comparison to more perfectly balanced ones like Super Metroid or Metroid Prime 2. I had to stop playing when I was wondering what the hell I was doing with my life trying to fight this same stupid boss for the 10th time, which wanted me to deal with awkward diagonal shooting mechanics and focus on some tiny weak point, while trying to dodge whatever it was trying to throw at me at the same time. Maybe it was Drogyga? I forget. I was already not in love with the instant death mechanics with frame-perfect quick time events that purposely change the fucking timing. just to make it an RNG nightmare. -

Good job continuing the trend of Dark-Souls-ifying everything that is good in the world. -

Avowed is Obsidian's technical triumph - despite the typical heft of UE5The disconnect is real between the games "journalists" and the YouTubers who actually played the game: * [GmanLives](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VGD1qJ9a1k) * [JuiceHead](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PogNVShtE-E) * [ACG](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbDmNLF3tmc) * [Luke Stephens](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWrDkijow48) * [MrMattyPlays](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zpo4EqhF-Fk) What the fuck is up with all of these glowing opinions, just from the large games "journalists" sites? Are they getting paid by Obsidian? This is looking like another Outer Worlds or Starfield situation. Hype the shit about it, make sure the major sites give it high scores, and then months later, when people actually play it, the scorn and mid-ness of the game is too hard to ignore.
