It makes sense in that manner but it is still a very odd concept.

I always thought it mostly made sense from an in universe perspective. It sounds obvious to place the controls for the turret behind the turrets away from the people who'd want to get past said turret. Of course if it's all automated, then there's the problem of "how do we get back inside" if something goes wrong and now the guys who are supposed to be behind the turrets are now on the wrong side of them. So having a manual bypass would make sense, and could give a justification in game play for why it's out of the way. You don't want to put it somewhere obvious so any jack hole can find it.

@@MegaZeta This is a very "No, but yes" situation. Like, the PS1 and 2 had a bajillion games for example, and I love that about it. And that doesn't compare to AAA gaming.... That compares to having a sea of indie games, honestly. For two, it always depends on what games you're comparing anyway, and your own tastes. Like I replayed Rayman 2 and didn't like it as much as I used to. But I replayed Tomb Raider 1, and yeah, I WOULD play that over a LOT of AAA games, and that was AAA at the time. There are all sorts of classics that hold up. And as far as those bajillion PS1 games, that's like gambling on not high-visibility indie games, and it's really fun, and I would also play those more often than some AAA games. But not all of them. Yahtzee clearly has a more pessimistic view of some of the non-memorable games maybe, in this case PC games, and that's fine, it makes sense to feel that way. And as far as new devs retreading old games, a lot of the time they do a very good job and see the things that made it great. So no issue there.

John Wayne Bobbitt (born 1967) and Lorena Bobbitt (née Gallo; born 15 May 1969) were an American former couple, married on June 18, 1989, whose relationship received international press coverage in 1993 when Lorena severed John's penis with a knife while he was asleep in bed; the penis was successfully surgically reattached. Lorena, an Ecuadorian immigrant, claimed that her husband John, a bar bouncer and former U.S. Marine, had raped and abused her for years. John was charged with rape later that year but was acquitted and, subsequently, starred in two pornographic films. The next year, Lorena was acquitted of assault by reason of insanity and went on to start a foundation for domestic abuse victims and their children. The couple divorced in 1995.

This would not be the end of JW Bobbit's fame, however, as he would later come to the rescue of Val Venis on WWF Raw, where Wally Yamaguchi attempted to castrate Val, only for the lights to go out, enabling Val to get away. John Wayne Bobbit had turned them out, informing Val that no one should have to go through what he did.

Just a heads-up: Phantom Fury is not really a sequel to Ion Fury, that's just the marketing because the latter was fairly well received. Ion was developed by Voidpoint and is the prequel to the earlier Bombshell. Which in turn wasn't received well and was developed by Slipgate Ironworks who also made Phantom. There's a pattern here.

I played the demo for Yellow Taxi several months ago and very much enjoyed it. Plan to pick it up eventually. However, I do feel that it doesn't entirely stick the landing on its stated premise of being a platformer without a jump. It does have a jump. It's just a multi-stage wind-up jump that is finnickier and harder to use than your usual jump.

This set of reviews flipped my expectations upside down, not unlike Benito Mussolini's... ankles.

I'm working on a game with a title that I personally think it's kind of generic. It's "the eldritch monarch". The title I would have prefered is "A Trap For Moths". However, as a completely unknown dev, there is an argument for more explicit titles. In my case, the final title says "lovecraftian horror, ok? you don't know me, never played anything I made, but it's lovecraftian horror!". It's kind of like "Amnesia: The dark descent". Super generic, right? but once they made a name for themselves they released "SOMA" and "A machine for pigs". Enticing and interesting titles.
