Dead Horse Interchange

Its the only one on Switch I have - any of the others I have to dig a bunch of crap out and I'm feeling lazy.

But if its not great that must explain why I'm getting bored.

Wait until it comes to PC (post-Denuvo crack) with mod support. Pirate that shit.

SMTV is unironically either the worst mainline SMT or tied for worst with 4A.

I miss the day when all we knew about SMTV was some short clip of some badass blue/yellow samurai.
Then I found out what the main protagonist actually looked like, and I have been scratching my head ever since.

Btw, i don't give a fuck about Touhou shit, i just like this game and the Metroidvania with the maid that stops time.

Team Ladybug are the only ones who "get" Metroidvania. I can't wait for their new title Blade Chimera (even if that one isn't about a waifu).

MechWarrior is the gold standard in damage displays.

I thought that honor went to games where waifus took clothing damage.

Sadly there aren't many mecha with stockings and skirts.

He Naruto runs too.

I'd be amazed if they make it farther than the Lady Freeze DLC before abandoning this money sink entirely.

Oh, also Gay Joker has a prosthetic leg for no reason other than to check off some diversity checkbox.
You can really tell they were lazy af, as any proper disabled Joker ought to have a clown-car-shaped combat wheelchair.

A prosthetic leg? Man Batman really beat the shit out of him that time.

Dead Cells, but with the characters of BlazBlue.
Moves to unlock and upgrade instead of equipment, less platforming and more combos.



Galaga with dodge and muh roguelite mechanics.
It has the aesthetics you can only find in bars that serve vegan finger food instead of booze.



Nigga Gaiden + Strider. Harder than this video makes it look.

I need to go for the 1cc in Blazing Chrome. Blazing Chrome is a really good Contra-like and most people agree it's the best of Joymasher's games.

I can't remember what difficulty it was, but I did get the 1cc for Final Vendetta a while ago.



I'm not iconoclast, this is just here so you can see what the game is like. It's a proper SoR2-style beat em up but using the neo-geo graphical style and engine. I THINK this runs on the same engine limitations as an actual neo-geo game, and it also steals a lot of sprite animation sets pretty much wholesale from other beat em ups and SNK fighting games. I remember hearing speculation that the reason this was done is because the Final Vendetta devs used placeholder graphics during development which were copyrighted, and then they realized later on in development that they couldn't easily change the placeholder graphics with how they had already designed hitboxes and frame data. So they would have had to make their animations *extremely similar* to the copyrighted placeholder graphics. Leading to shit like the girl throwing out hao-shokokens like Yuri Sakazaki. Can't say for certain that's what happened, but if the animations look suspicious, it's because they are very much "we have those at home."

Final Vendetta's music is excellent. Definitely worth a listen if you like the Yu Suzuki music in SoR 2.
