I enjoyed Fort Condor more in Intergrade, but the gameplay is immese. I hope this wins game of the year, it is outstanding.

I think it is pretty good but there are a lot of games I am looking forward to or enjoying this year. I have been enjoying Unicorn Overlord more overall but realize it isn't for everyone and really isn't on the same scale as a game. As for straight RPGs I can't wait for Eiyuden Chronicle and then we still have the Elden Ring expansion coming up.

The mini games are fantastic, i'm able to get the highest score in each one, but the piano is a nightmare. I can't even get close to B 🫠. No platinum trophy for me 😭

I found the Piano bullshit at first, but I don't know what changed; I killed the Piano session in Costa Del Sol with 100% and I have not had any trouble with them since then. It just clicked with me.

Hmm that gives me hope! Maybe it's one of those things where you eventually get better with enough practice.

Fort Condor was quite easy for me. As opposed to say the Piano mini game.
The shooting one I could probably do eventually but I'll never be able to do any of the piano ones.

I don't have the rhythm for it. To see the color. Understand what to do and THEN respond is hard.

Practice. I felt the same way as you at first. As of now Stars on 2 out of 3 and last one a very high A(missed it by like couple of 100 points.)

I may practice I may not. I watched one video of an S and it was insane.

Plus there are so many controls and a huge hud. I'm not sure I even know the controls yet lol.

Now these are solid updates. But it's funny when other updates come out for games I read the article and it feels like i am reading a novel at times.

Nice to get these updates. I can't see a difference between Sharp and Soft Performance Mode.
