    Playing Game Dev Tycoon (One day I will get an 11). And finishing Dragon Age 2.

    Pity the levels/maps annoyed me so much that I put it down years ago and never finished. The combat’s okay, but the story is fun. (I particularly enjoy the framing device using Varrik and the Seeker. That’s an idea that should be reused).Report

    That soap advertised itself as being beige…..

    Now that was also one of the most 70s things I have ever seen. Kind of dirty, yet kind of squeaky clean. All the women had strangely cartoonish voices like they were trying to imitate Betty Boop if she were raised in Brooklyn.Report

      They are all affectations, none more so than Garr’s, but that’s Marshall’s real voice – or at least the one she always used as far as I can tell. Then again, she’s the only one actually from NooYawk.Report

    This might be more 70s. I can’t tell if Brian Eno is wearing an eyepatch for a costume’s sake or because he needed it.Report

    Minigames like that are just dull.
    I do know someone who wrote a good slotmachine game —
    but it had to stand on its own two feet.Report

      I’ve found that JRPGs assume a higher level of tolerance for grinding than western RPGs.

      (For the record, there’s an entire casino with all kinds of games which include betting on races, betting on fights, and a cute little board game kinda game… it’s just that the rate of return for the slots is a couple orders of magnitude higher than anything else in the casino. If you want the best whip you can possibly get, you need to play the slots.)Report
