What am I currently playing:
Iesabel
A not-Diablo game that is most certainly not Diablo. It's weird because this one scratches that particular itch, but does so in an irksome, ham-fisted manner. For instance, you have to occasionally go to great lengths to reposition yourself just to destroy a barrel. Targeting is wonky, walking is a slow process, and even the story is kinda weird. You start out as one of four chosen warriors foreseen by a shaman, but your carriage is destroyed en route and your partners are murdered. The shaman who foresaw your coming apparently didn't foresee this event and now believes you murdered your friends to swipe equipment off their corpses. Not exactly a Danny Torrence, this one...
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Continuing my replay. I'm currently inside Jabu-Jabu. After all these years, I still love this one. Yes, its camera is sometimes a pain in my ass, but the game hits so many high notes despite that tiny hiccup.
Resident Evil (remake)
I'm trying yet again, this time on PC instead of GameCube. Thank every god ever that it finally has a moderate difficulty setting. See, that wasn't so hard, was it Capcom?
Tembo the Badass Elephant
As predicted, I'm having fun with this silly take on mascot platformers. There's a good balance of cautious play, destruction, and exploration, with a touch of old-school "to hell with any sense of realism." I dig it so far...
On the horizon:
