I’ve been playing more Lego games recently, in my chain of getting distracted from one game to play another. Most recently is DC Super-Villains which is hyphenated for some reason. In that game you can make your original character who is the star of the story and gets almost all the powers, almost as if you were writing a fanfiction where you save the day but evilly or something. It also has a fairly extensive character creator for that reason, and I figured out how to make Evil Gex, who is similar to regular Gex but doesn’t talk and may just be a guy in a suit. Gameplay-wise it’s been the usual use powers to solve puzzles and leave some for revisiting the levels later plus big hub world to find sidequests in.
Before then I was playing Brick Tales, which is apparently a phone type game but also more focused on building to solve puzzles instead of just using the right character, including some basic physics model that’s pretty forgiving. Of course there’s still the using powers to solve puzzles and coming back for the rest later on top of it but it’s done differently.
I’ve played many Lego games, of course many of which are the TT Games type, starting with Star Wars Complete Saga and eventually going through Skywalker Saga on Game Pass. I also played the Incredibles one that for some reason starts with the second movie then goes to the first and also features something from all the Pixar movies up to that point. There’s also the Lego Batmans I got from back when Games With Gold was a thing that let you just keep 360 and classic games. And of course the ultimate classics like Island and Racers. They’ve tried many sequels and successors to those but haven’t quite recaptured the spirit of those. However TT Games Lego games are fairly consistent, like Call of Duty but more interesting.
And of course I’ve played the Lord of the Rings ones, which brings me to some random thought I had. For whatever reason I’ve been thinking of the “and my axe” thing, but I thought what if he instead said “and my ASS” before booty blasting on the orcs with the dummy thicc cheek claps sending them back to the dirtussies or however that works. This idea is pretty dumb but it’s late and I find things funnier then. For all I know someone already figured out a slop video about it.
