Hey there, welcome back to our usual segment where we chat about the games that have us hooked this week. Bertie is feeling a mix of triumph and emptiness, Tom O is comparing his house reorganization to Resident Evil, and Victoria is mesmerized by the music in South of Midnight.
Bertie managed to beat the game on Hard mode and even threw in a Normal run for good measure. But now, he’s left with a strange feeling of emptiness. It’s not really sure why this matters, but the lack of desire to play is hitting him hard. Challenges and difficulty in games have always kept him engaged, but now that he’s achieved his goal, he’s at a loss. Maybe tackling the Unfair or Nightmare difficulties will reignite his passion for the game. Who knows?
Tom O, on the other hand, hasn’t had much time for gaming lately because his house has been undergoing some renovations. Moving furniture around to accommodate the changes has been a nightmare. It’s like trying to manage items in a Resident Evil game, but with the added bonus of a scorching heatwave. The struggle is real, folks. The HEAT WAVE has made Tom extra irritable, so let’s cut him some slack.
Victoria dove into South of Midnight this week and was immediately drawn to its Deep South setting and stop-motion art style. However, it’s the music that has truly captured her heart. The soundtrack is top-notch and enhances the emotional depth of the game. While the gameplay may not be as engaging as she hoped, the music, combined with the story, keeps her coming back for more. It’s a thing of beauty, no doubt.
So there you have it, folks. A mix of triumph, frustration, and enchantment in the world of gaming this week. What have you been playing? Let us know in the comments below. Until next time, happy gaming!
