9 peak manga by one guy 😉
I don’t think I have come across many manga authors who have written more than 3 genuinely peak stories/mangas😭
Most of the peak anime I’ve watched come from completely different authors when i look them up
Have you guys watched multiple peak anime adaptation from the same manga author? Or read multiple manga by one author that you consider peak?
It really makes you appreciate how difficult it is to write good stories😮💨
Forget the comment "xitterslave"
The hell 😭🙏
This is exactly why Phantom Blade Zero is blowing up right now.
With the release of Phantom Blade Zero, it's becoming increasingly clear that more and more players are realizing something simple: games should be about straightforward, satisfying fun.
Those who obsess over extreme difficulty and overly complex mechanics are essentially gaslighting themselves.
Players are finally realizing that the fundamental purpose of gaming is to have fun. Enjoyment and comfort should come first.
Street Fighter 6 figured this out long ago. That's why it introduced Modern Controls, lowering the barrier to entry and allowing more people to enjoy fighting games.
We saw the first signs of this shift with Wuchang: Fallen Feathers. Hollow Knight: Silksong sparked a rebellion. And now, ordinary players are finally reclaiming their voice.
For years, developers catered to a niche hardcore audience, deliberately pushing difficulty higher while ignoring the experience of the average player. Even when players weren't having fun, they rarely spoke up.
But that's finally changing.
Going forward, I believe we'll see more and more games prioritizing accessible, fast-paced, satisfying gameplay over unnecessary complexity and frustration.
And for the gaming industry as a whole, that's a remarkable step forward.
They find it hard to articulate themselves as sometimes even they don't have an idea as to why they are miserable, and opening up to someone generally results in pushback, ridicule and lack of any genuine empathy.
So most just close up and move on with their day.

This is what came to my head reading this.
That's a really sad thing, but this individual can recall it with a certain fondness and laugh.
Man, that's something

5 hours in, way of the sword is infinitely more fun.
I just think structurally, It's not looking good.
Almost as if the game will end up being too long to it's detriment.
Other than that, I don't see many issues with the game, including the passive enemy design.
Wish we had some sort of release timeline, because having a lighter discord client would be very useful.
We've been early adopters of Rust since 2018 and a lot of our infra, voice tech, and even some of the current client is already Rust, the holy grail was getting the whole client there. That means Electron goes away, and so does React Native, mobile keeps native UI but shares app code with desktop via Rust. We hope to get it into testing with users soon™. (And it's not Tauri, it's GPUI, so good guess everyone.)
Alright, back to staring at the WoW Forever login screen.
The anime pacing is extremely dragged out so obviously find it boring.
When it drags, IT DRAGS.
Part 4 being longer than part 3 and having less episodes is a rather glaring observation to part 3's anime dragging things iut.
Fights are of varying quality.
