I think a lot of people did once they found out you could.

All I had while recording this was sighs.

I had to watch a YouTube video to know they want you to jump on those things from below and the blue guy to do it from the top. I was just getting the hang of things too.

My least favorite thing about point-and-click is the randomness of what items I'm supposed to fuse, use, etc. 

Question: How complex are the controls? Could I reliably play this with just a keyboard, like I can with games like Sonic the Hedgehog and VVVVV? 

I'm curious what past picks of mine you would base that on. 

I was always partial to X2, mostly because I rented it the most of the series and I loved the look of it and the motorcycles. 

I'm excited to see what X4 has in store for me when I eventually buy this. Only ever played the first two games. 

If a quote is copyrighted or comes from a copyrighted work, they might have to at least ask permission first. However, the fact it came from a review of yours, they only used a small piece of the review, and properly attributed the quote to you means things like fair use come into play. It's always good practice to ask first just in case, but they're probably in the legal clear in this specific instance and, as you said, it's not like you're going to fight it. Neat concept though.

I think I'd like 20XX to an extent, but as you said, memorization is kind of part of the bargain for me. I'm currently working my way through VVVVV anyway.

Pool Panic sounds like a neat concept, but I kinda figured the pool balls reacting unexpectedly would get frustrating.

Anyway, I dig that there are so many retro games, but they're always a bit too pricey for me. Something like that I wait for a $5 or less sale. The $30 Tempest is a definite no-go.

Aside from some of these cringy naming conventions I'm reading, this sounds right up my alley and I'm glad you brought this to my attention. Now the question for me is PC or PS4?

Consumption Junction Reaction:

I found the YouTube video of Obama discussing receiving Witcher II and how it speaks to Polish innovation even though he can't play it or something. Wild. As someone with a super Polish last name, I should really give that series another shot. Same with my Bloodborne copy I guess.
