Oh, what could've been...

If ever there was a game — regardless of genre or console — that I wish we could collectively go back to & properly restructure from the ground up, it'd be Destrega.

I simply cannot remember a game/concept that was so on the cusp of being something great, but was hobbled by "playing it safe".

Wholeheartedly agree

Yes on all of that, plus... y'know, Big Blue

That's basically the same reaction I have to "Mount Gagazet"... 😏

Blessing & a curse... trust me, I know.

I can see the future and already know that I'll be repeating the following phrase ad infinitum:

Ballad of a Small Player

One could only dream...

That moment etched it in stone... and all flowers & praise to Brian Tyree Henry because he breathed life into that performance in a way I doubt anyone else could have done better.

For me, it was even earlier...

When his arm canon appeared for the very first time, that was the proverbial "point of no return".

I audibly gasped when it happened.
