solar vapor
#

honestly looks like bo4 is going to have a lot of content available, which i'm quite impressed by. it's a first for cod

brisk merlin
#

yes

solar vapor
#

probably still won't be buying it though. multiplayer looks like bo3 dlc and I'm not sure how i feel about zombies

brisk merlin
#

I said that

#

Not here

pseudo dragon
#

seems they wanna improve the pc experience which good to hear

brisk merlin
#

But I said that because it does

solar vapor
#

i haven't bough a cod since bo2, and haven't enjoyed one since bo1

brisk merlin
#

I liked 2

solar vapor
#

2 was okay, but zombies killed it for me

#

bo1 zombies forever my favourite

jade lake

#

big facts

wet zodiac
#

Been thinking of getting Rage to pass the time for a bit. Whose played it?

bleak otter
#

I'm glad HG decided to give me a month with my tennis and puzzle games before releasing their update.

#

Although Octopath Traveler comes out on July 18th. Maybe I'll come back to that one later.

cinder vessel
#

@wet zodiac I've played it a decent bit, it's not too bad!

#

It drags in some parts, sorta, but the shooting's solid

wet zodiac
#

Is it similar to any other games?

cinder vessel
#

Umm, I mean it's kinda like Doom in some ways, & maybe a bit of BulletStorm?

#

It's a pretty by the book FPS, really. With some odd little driving parts from place to place, and a few mandatory-ish races

wet zodiac
#

May pick it up if it's cheap

cinder vessel
#

That's the best way to do it, tbh. I did so & don't regret it

light cairn
#

i feel like for big games like that, if you can get them for like $5 it's impossible to be mad at the price

cinder vessel
#

Mmhmm. I think I picked it up for like $10 awhile after it came out

#

Also holy shit I forgot how fuckin' long my friend's SnapMaps are when played solo

#

He aptly updated & renamed them to Attrition Logs at some point last year

light cairn
#

are they at least good? 😛

cinder vessel
#

They're alright with a group of friends

#

But solo they're fuckin' painful

#

However that's pretty much exactly what he was going for

#

Coop maps, not solo maps

#

Tbh I had to just quit out of the first because I almost know it beat for beat since we replayed it a bunch as he iterated on it

#

And also like I said, solo's not the way to go with it, lol

#

What was nice is he seems to have kept me in mind in the reworking of it, as he had the old loadout I used to enjoy still available at the start

light cairn
#

nice

cinder vessel
#

wha

primal inlet
#

Big hrrm, yes

#

Question is whether it's Destiny-like or Dying Light-like

cinder vessel
#

Yeah. If it's just DLC/expansions that's whatevs

tough heron
#

hrrrrm

#

hmmmmmm

#

i'm not sure about rage 2 tbh

#

it feels very 2009

hidden falcon
#

:honk: if it has combat like doom i'll play it forever

steel sigil
#

Yee

light cairn
#

if anyone has a vita in the US. Persona 4 Golden is on sale for $8 this weekend on PSN

cinder vessel
#

😮

gaunt hare
#

If it's like Monster Hunter World, that would be cool.

hidden falcon
gaunt hare
#

I haven't played it but I understand MHW is a game like a live service but without lootboxes

#

Only reason I haven't played it is $

hidden falcon
#

i do not like worl :honk:

gaunt hare
#

I think it looks sick.

hidden falcon
#

it looks cool but its not as fun as the other ones salsasean

light cairn
#

it's definitely the most accessible and fluid one to date imo

gaunt hare
#

But more importantly, its roadmap seems similar to what that article is talking about with Rage 2

#

I mean, you're the first person I've heard of who likes monster Hunter but doesn't like the first one to be a major console game in years.

hidden falcon
gaunt hare
#

Monster Hunter stuck to mobile for way too long, and finally making a proper AAA game was a great move.

light cairn
#

definitely

gaunt hare
#

My cousin is obsessed with those games and he dove right into Monster Hunter World

#

I've also watched gameplay and damn if it doesn't have some pretty crazy world/npc interactions

#

The way monsters can fight or fall down pits or climb or jump gaps

#

It's crazy.

light cairn
#

it truly deserves the title of world

gaunt hare
#

Ya

#

I really want to play that, kingdom come deliverance, and God of War

cinder vessel
#

Tbh the handheld games were top notch for their platforms

hidden falcon
#

yes very nice

gaunt hare
#

They definitely were.

hidden falcon
#

i dont like how it feels when you hit stuff in worl :honk:

gaunt hare
#

I've never spent money on handhelds though

#

For the most part I think the games are inferior (since they are designed to be played on the go)

hidden falcon
#

:bigthonk:

gaunt hare
#

Mostly though because I already play too much video games

#

I really don't need to also be playing games while on a bus or waiting for something.

light cairn
#

i'm pumped for XX finally coming over to the west

hidden falcon
#

yes :moan:

cinder vessel
#

XX?

hidden falcon
#

gen ultimate salsasean

light cairn
#

^^^

#

called XX in Japan

winter yew
#

I was just thinking about that one

#

MHGU

#

I don’t even have a Switch and I almost wanna get one for it

#

But I already have Generations on my 3ds

#

Still have sooo much left to do in it lol there’s monsters I haven’t even seen yet

hidden falcon
#

yees and t r a n s m o g :moan:

light cairn
#

best thing is that you can transfer your save from the 3DS version

cinder vessel
#

@light cairn i have no idea what devil daggers has going on that makes people apparently dig it a bunch 🤔

light cairn
#

i literally played it for like 5 seconds, died, then never launched it again

#

no reason why, i just didn't

cinder vessel
#

lol

#

I just read the brief description & went, "That sounds...Really boring, really fast"

light cairn
#

it's a highscore game, plain and simple

#

but you can "win"

cinder vessel
#

That's how it sounded...So I'm still confused at how it developed such a buzz

light cairn
#

🤷

stone trout
#

really crazy visuals, fast paced gameplay, and it was popular for a time

#

good game, but its hype only lasted for a few months

#

Worth a play though, from what I see

cinder vessel
full beacon
limber harness
#

@safe umbra I shut it down to conserve my resources, as nobody was playing on it.

#

I still have everything backed up and all.

#

I can bring it back up with an hour's notice without issue. exactly as it was when it was shut down.

safe umbra
#

I’ve a feeling we might get on that again, but we’ve been getting puzzles and stuff.

#

The only reason why we really got on was because of those 2 months of no interaction

limber harness
#

yeah its all still around

#

i just need to hit the boot buttons

knotty osprey
bleak otter
#

To The Moon is getting an animated feature film! 😮

jade lake
#

eww

cinder vessel
primal inlet
#

Definitely...an idea

#

Like that one service but...for only one game?

cinder vessel
#

It seems like it...It's really wild

limber harness
#

DRM gone wild.

cinder vessel
#

It does make sense though, if you're absolutely deadset on trying to push more demanding games on lower end hardware like the Switch

primal inlet
#

As if the Switch isn't already a very-precariously-placed Fort Knox

#

I can't imagine this'll catch on in the west

limber harness
#

Gamers are ok with not owning games.

#

Gamers are ok with paying monthly fees.

#

Gamers are ok with not even installing their games anymore.

#

Let's combine all three!

cinder vessel
#

Gamers are also way too comfortable treating games as disposable

limber harness
#

Can't pirate a cloud game! kaz_rollsafe

primal inlet
#

coughpseudo-mmos

cinder vessel
#

I don't think this is at all aimed at being super evil corporatey on Capcom's part though, and more just them being lazy as fuck and unwilling to try & downgrade Resident Evil 7 enough to run on the Switch, lol

#

Sony's the one being evil corporatey with PS Now nonsense

limber harness
#

Can't sideload a cloud game! And now that a sideload exploit exists for the Switch...

#

(an unpatchable one, at that)

cinder vessel
#

I really just think this is typical Capcom being too lazy to make a Switch port tho

primal inlet
#

Checked out the Reddit thread and apparently this is common for Japan specifically

cinder vessel
#

Oh? Huh

primal inlet
#

like DQX has a 3DS "cloud" version

cinder vessel
#

Weeeirdddd

#

This might explain why members of Square Enix were briefly infatuated with the whole Shinra cloud service thing

meager panther
#

Hmm so games now exist solely on the cloud?

#

How much bandwidth does it need to play?

#

Star citizen can do that.instead of making people download 100gb worth of stuff

cinder vessel
#

as Kaz pointed out extensively, it's not ideal

#

For numerous reasons

meager panther
#

I know its not ideal.. but may be in five years it can become the norm 🤷

#

And for a game like star citizen ..i think it would be better that way

#

Not good if a game takes up 100+gb of storage space

#

Btw i hope one day there is a game that is like combined star citizen,elite dangerous,no mans sky and space engine

full beacon
#

Anyone going to get scum

pseudo dragon
#

Anyone who plays league here hyped for clash this weekend?

bleak otter
#

Crypt of the Necrodancer for $3 is a good deal

jade lake
#

lol

#

BFV is gonna be a BF1 reskin

cinder vessel
#

isn't that basically every big franchise sequel when being extremely reductive

jade lake
#

true

#

i really wanted BFV to be vietnam

#

the V made it seem like it

#

but

#

nahhh lets reskin the last game we made

gaunt hare
#

I dunno, the battlefield series has done really well recently besides Hardline.

#

4 became awesome by the time it was done and Battlefield 1 was great

winter yew
#

What even was Hardline

gaunt hare
#

I'm disappointed V is going to be WWII, but I'm going to wait to see the reveal before calling it a cash in

#

Cops and robbers, but battlefield

winter yew
#

And an SUV that played rap music

gaunt hare
#

In other words, a really obvious and cool idea that was ruined because they tried to make it a battlefield game

#

Haha, ya

winter yew
#

Battlefield 3 was a blast for me

gaunt hare
#

A cops and robbers game is a no brainer. That's just a classic game concept

winter yew
#

I remember one time I was trying not to get killed by a heli while the building was crumbling around me

#

So chaotic

#

And the tank play was great

#

Never did figure out how to handle the Helis or jets

#

So I just smoked other players in tanks

gaunt hare
#

I miss bad company

#

I'm always a more "boots on the ground" player

#

Never use vehicles for some reason.

winter yew
#

I just hated getting sniped from across the map

#

By a pebble

craggy belfry
#

I accidentally deleted a shitload of space engine screenshots i had

#

why am i like this

#

well time to take more i guess

bleak otter
#

I can't believe you've done this

tranquil wagon
#

Anyone played laser league?

warm holly
#

Is it battle royale?

tranquil wagon
#

no... not yet anyway 😂

winter yew
#

Anyone else excited for DayZ 0.63?

#

Been playing the stress tests and it's really good

agile raven
#

DAE Remember Quavelen

#

Whatever happened to her?

meager panther
#

Hmm i kinda remember

primal inlet
#

Laser League is great, but too small an online playerbase

#

And I think Quav left because the MC server died down and she wasn't into some of the discussion going on here

tranquil wagon
#

I played for the first time the other day, got hooked

brittle creek
#

i wish i lived in england so it was easier to get a copy of Elite 2

strong hazel
#

I think quav left a while ago @agile raven but I‘m not sure

#

Probably cause the minecraft server died down and I think some people argued with her and all that.

#

Shame really, she was nice.

???

jade lake

its not a very good game imo

brittle creek

loset

#

loser

jade lake
#

sky u make me cry

cinder vessel
#

@jade lake also might wanna make sure to patch Fallout 3's .exe so it can access more memory

jade lake
#

why

#

lol

winter yew
#

Lol no idea

silent atlas
#

that works only for a short time till the elasticity of the gum wrapper fades. you need to add a spring to retain the same movement and resistance

jade lake
#

bfv gameplay looks like a reskinned bf1

#

lame as hell

pseudo dragon
#

I mean it being another world war, i except it to be. I did like the simplistic HUD, that was very nice

light cairn
#

because it certainly doesn't for me

cinder vessel
#

is it supposed to

#

if it just shows shooting that's sufficient right

light cairn
#

yeah but what is it

#

this is the reveal

#

is this single player, is it multiplayer, is it coop. why is there a multiplayer looking hud? but it starts with a cutscene, but then it says "squad spawned on you"???

#

none of this makes sense

#

and totally tonally off compared to all the other games

cinder vessel
#

🤷

#

Looks about right to me, a chaotic mess, which is largely all it feels like in multi

#

I'm just presuming it's multiplayer because I barely know anyone that really bothers with the campaigns these days

light cairn
#

not to mention the weird pseudo-ww2 theme but also not really

winter yew
#

Holy fucking fuck is BFV a joke

#

Like honestly what the hell was that lmao

light cairn
#

i genuinely don't know

cinder vessel
#

A super high fidelity shoot'em up experience, not that hard to understand, lol

winter yew
#

It doesn't look or feel like battlefield

#

At all

light cairn
#

^^^

#

this is confusing literally everyone

cinder vessel
#

I mean honestly they can show whatever the fuck they want, you know what you're probably getting

jade lake
#

BF4 is the best

winter yew
#

I'm all for diversity and such (not getting into it) but really, a woman fighting for the british with a cyborg arm.... IN WORLD WAR TWO.

#

Idk

cinder vessel
#

I dunno, Battlefront had a similarly goofy trailer imo but you knew it was just gonna be some standard high def shoot'ems

light cairn
#

launch bf4 was crap, but after a while they vastly improved it, but then bf1 felt really lackluster to me

jade lake
#

BFV should have been vietnam, WW2 is so oversaturated to a point where i just dont care anymore

cinder vessel
#

Bagged, that's a raw as fuck prosthetic, lol

light cairn
#

i totally thought BFV was gonna be vietnam and now i'm just disappointed for other reasons

cinder vessel
#

That's not even close to cyborg

jade lake
#

Guys can we be honest, there were absolutely no women on the frontlines

#

seriously

#

this is stupid

cinder vessel
#

🙄

winter yew
#

There was but in next to non existant numbers @jade lake

light cairn
#

that's really not the thing that should be nit-picked about this trailer 😛

winter yew
#

^^^

#

For me its the feel

cinder vessel
#

What's weirder is that they have a soldier with a prosthetic out in the field, at least to me 🤔

light cairn
#

but seriously is this multiplayer? coop? why does the hud look like ass and fake

#

what IS THIS

cinder vessel
#

Typically you got sent back & then you'd get a prosthetic, & probably wouldn't be redeployed

jade lake
#

On the german frontlines do you think there were women? i have nothing against women, but jesus there were barely if not any women on the frontlines in the 20th century

cinder vessel
#

At least...I think? Ah fuck if I know, lol

jade lake
#

its just kinda immersion breaking for me

#

in the small ways

cinder vessel
winter yew
#

It legit feels like a CoD game with Bf1 gunplay, Fortnite color scheme, all with a cheesy spoofy WW2 cover

light cairn
#

i mean i'm fine with it going weird, but this is such a crappy first reveal for any of it to make sense

cinder vessel
#

Tbh it hardly looks like any "real" gunplay, lol

jade lake
#

@cinder vessel i mean as in picking up a gun and sitting in a trench for hours on end, that didnt happen

light cairn
#

the whole thing looks totally just like a cutscene

cinder vessel
#

It just looks like your usual, "Get'em talkin'" thing

winter yew
#

I mean, if they wanted to go all out crazy/goofy then just make BF2143 nmspalm nmspalm nmspalm

jade lake
#

but yeah the trailer was weird and offputting

light cairn
#

seriously bf2143 would be amazing

jade lake
#

im tellin u man

cinder vessel
#

It looked okay to me, lol

But then I wasn't expecting anything of it

jade lake
#

vietnam

#

god that would be so cool

cinder vessel
#

Vietnam would be fucked in so many ways, lol

jade lake
#

it would work so well

cinder vessel
#

Not fucked as in bad, just like...The whole situation with that war

light cairn
#

battlefield vietnam was so good

jade lake
#

from the music to the hueys, the environments and everything else. it would work so well in a modern BF

winter yew
#

I hate to be that guy but if you're going to change WW2 this much, you might as well not do it, or atleast say that it's going to be alternate or something. Dice literally said the complete polar opposite

#

Just completely not what I was expecting lmao

light cairn
#

yeah, it doesn't feel like it's going far enough if they're trying to make it weird

#

don't try and straddle the line otherwise no one is satisfied

winter yew
#

Yikes look at the dislike ratio on the yt trailer

#

I'm having cod flashbacks from 2016

cinder vessel
light cairn
#

it came from the big bridge in the middle of a field

#

WHY

#

then the enemies are right next to you and they run in front and you shoot them!?!?

#

seriously this is so weird

winter yew
#

Its so fucking stupid lmao

cinder vessel
#

it's so fun

#

I love how dumb it is, lol

light cairn
#

the fuggn

#

DUDE

#

THROWS A GRENADE

cinder vessel
#

As soon as the truck fell on him I was like, "bonk"

light cairn
#

AND HE SHOOTS IT

#

AND BLOWS UP THE PLANE

#

'ELLO OLD FRIEND

cinder vessel
#

I love how well coordinated it is, lol

#

It's all so hilariously, theatrically absurd it's beautiful

#

It's like a fever dream of war

winter yew
#

Battlefield has always bridged the gap between military sim games and stupidly fun run'n'gun games. That's the reason i've always loved the series. This really doesn't feel like a battlefield at all, more just a silly cashgrab with the current fad of games

cinder vessel
#

What even is the current fad? 🤔 It's not doing Battle Royale too, is it?

winter yew
#

It is

#

Or something like it

#

Same with skins and microtransactions

cinder vessel
#

Well at least no one has to buy it 🤷

#

the whole game I mean, lol

winter yew
#

I almost wonder if this game started out as a normal ww2 battlefield game but with the crazy battle royale craze they made last minute changes to cash in on the popularity

#

Because when this game was being developed battle royale wasnt even big at the time

light cairn
#

yeah they've had to been working on this well before BR was super popular

winter yew
#

I mean, atleast I have BF4 to scratch the itch

#

Talk about a comeback story

#

An absolute POS at launch to an almost definitive fps

light cairn
#

everyone knows hardline was the best /s

winter yew
#

I never thought i'd say this but imo it seems hardline is more battlefield-y then battlefield V for first impressions lmao

#

Let's just wait until we see proper gameplay

light cairn
#

but milk, this is proper gameplay

winter yew
#

😩👌

cinder vessel
#
light cairn
#

oh good

cinder vessel
#

Can't complain too much about free, unless it's neurojacking you for cash

light cairn
#

true

winter yew
#

I’m gonna check that out

#

It looks like a lot of fun

cinder vessel
#

It feels alright to play from the like 5 minutes I tried just now, & it seems pretty well optimized

winter yew
#

Im downloading it now

#

15GB is pretty steep for me to download 'fast' 😉

cinder vessel
#

Took me about an hour or so with it goin' up & down a bunch

gaunt hare
#

Wow that battlefield V reveal trailer was whack

gaunt hare
#

I don't care that it's a woman.

hidden falcon
#

i dont either but i look at her leg GWfroggyBlobThonk

gaunt hare
#

My God you're right.

hidden falcon
#

and her gun that looks like its her arm GWfroggyBlobThonk

winter yew
#

Claw

gaunt hare
#

She never would have passed the medical exam

#

I can't believe they went from Battlefield 1 review

#

Which blew your face off with a shotgun and glitch mob

winter yew
#

lol

gaunt hare
#

to Battlefield V, COD action movie cyborg lady

#

From "with battlefield 1 we want to get across the gritty nature of an often ignored war while still being intense and chaotic"

#

to "WWII was lit fam lmao"

hidden falcon
#

GWfroggyBlobThonk some people in one of my other discord servers are saying they're trying to make it not serious

gaunt hare
#

Mission accomplished.

#

So far I am not taking it seriously.

#

Will wait for the E3 gameplay, could still be loads of fun, but they botched that trailer

#

Triggered me a little how they tried to... make it look like gameplay kinda?

#

Slapped a UI on a cinematic

hidden falcon
#

ohwow they did

jade lake
#

i wish they showed a lot more

light cairn
#

i've heard interesting things about the gameplay, but they really botched this as the "reveal"

jade lake
#

the woman thing is trivial but it just kinda annoys me bcs historical accuracy and all that

hidden falcon
#

yees GWfroggyBlobThonk

gaunt hare
#

It's ridiculous. All these people complaining about a woman being on the cover as if they care about "historical accuracy". One: it's not completely inaccurate, but it's also a game series where you can jump out of a plane and shoot a missile launcher before landing back in the plane

#

Two: none of these people actually give two fucks about historical accuracy or know anything really about WWII

#

As if they are going to be combing the game trying to find inaccuracies in the guns, clothing, or armies xD

#

It's always the same people getting triggered over the same thing. It's a woman or a black guy or whatever.

#

Dudes have never read a book on WWII in their life (not that I have either, at least not in a long time)

royal mirage
#

I am so damn close to just throwing my computer out the window

gaunt hare
#

Uh oh.

#

You're supposed to be the technical support.

#

"have you tried throwing your computer out the window?"

royal mirage
#

I keep overwriting my permissions, but it keeps rewriting them back to nothing

#

So, computer, if you are intelligent enough to understand what I am typing, how about you stop before i rip your goddamn circuit board out and bitchslap all the ram out of you with it

gaunt hare
#

Can I have your computer instead?

royal mirage
#

If you want a virus, sure

#

Because this thing is in the GPU, CPU, board, and hard drive

hidden falcon
#

GWfroggyBlobThonk the people that were saying it wasnt accurate in one of my servers were talking about all the guns and stuff

#

@royal mirage are you on windows 10 and the game is in program files ?

royal mirage
#

Yes, and I think I fix

#

lemme run it

#

It worked

hidden falcon
#

windows 10 likes to stop you from doing stuff with random files in program files

royal mirage
#

I took the files for the game from the "steam/steamapps/downloading/" file and pasted them into common

hidden falcon
royal mirage
#

It downloaded the files, but refused to install them

hidden falcon
#

good job steam

royal mirage
#

And, according to reddit, this happened to almost every patch of Path of Exiles

hidden falcon
cinder vessel

they forgot how to path

Getting real salty at overwatch you guys. :(

#

?

gaunt hare
#

Not doing well in free for all

#

Even made me say "youve got to be fucking kidding me." A couple times to myself

light cairn
#

oof

warm holly
#

ok so wtf even happened in that BFV trailer

#

It's like an ADD version of WWII

#

Like, yeah I know WWII was intense and there was lots of fighting, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't like that

brisk merlin
#

No, I dont think women fought in ww2... either that or my history teacher taught me wrong

uncut bramble
#

I haven't seen the trailer yet, but some countries allowed women to fight in WW2

#

Not UK or US obviously

brisk merlin
#

I see you're back to that profile pic

uncut bramble
#

yeah keepin things fresh you know

uncut bramble
#

This is sick as heck

warm holly
#

My problem with BFV isn't about the women, it's with the trailer switching focus every 2 seconds making it hard to actually concentrate on what's happening

#

It's too hectic

gaunt hare
#

@warm holly I have so many problems with the reveal. I think it's important though to hear what they are saying the multiplayer is actually going to look like rather than that dumpster fire of a trailer.

warm holly
#

The fact that they put a fake HUD on a cinematic really is weird

light cairn
#

that was one of the worst offenders it felt like

warm holly
#

It looked kinda legit until the guy started spraying with the gun

light cairn
#

the actual stuff that jackfrags talks about sounds neat, but why the hell did they make the reveal trailer they did...

minor wraith
#

what makes me mad with the women in the game is not that there in it there in it to make the feminazies happy

iron inlet
#

No it's not lol

#

Women are in there because it makes sense?

brisk merlin
#

nope, its a british woman

iron inlet
#

Women fought in WW2 on the Home Front so it makes sense

#

it's definitely not to make "Feminazis" happy

minor wraith
#

well at least it not as bad as when they had a black female Nazis in the call of duty ww2 multiplayer gameplay

#

which makes the Nazis look like good people because it makes it look like they allowed blacks and women into there army's regularly which they dident because they hated blacks but women i can understand

cinder vessel
#

can't take anyone seriously that says "feminazis" lol

gaunt hare
#

^

#

Also I can't have this conversation anymore as much as I like talking about battlefield. It's making me stupider.

cinder vessel
#

If they had thrown out the HUD in the trailer, I think it'd be great for people like me that consider the games largely absurd at this point

#

I love how ridiculous it is, just on its own

gaunt hare
#

Well when you compare the battlefield 1 trailer, that's how you do a trailer.

cinder vessel
#

But I do understand where others are coming from, somewhat, in terms of, "But this says nothing about the game!"

gaunt hare
#

I think part of the reason this one is getting smacked so hard (besides the fact it's bad and besides all the dudes getting TRIGGERED) is that it's compared to one of the best video game reveals ever.

#

People expected that again. Instead we got Trevor Noah pretending he plays video games for an hour and then a two minute trailer that managed to show none of the cool stuff they say is going to be in the game while also being less WWII like than COD WWII

#

I bet when we see multiplayer gameplay it's going to be crazy. Some of the ideas, like a slower revive and being able to move people out of fire to revive them, sound awesome

cinder vessel
gaunt hare
#

As well as fortifying (might make more people defend objectives)

#

Its less ridiculous because there isn't a fucking katana.

#

Also, it sets the tone.

#

Battlefield is a large scale super soldier game. That's part of why the new trailer sucks. All super soldier, no scale.

cinder vessel
#

Not sure why BFV decided to basically compress the choreography into this frantic, hectic mess (even if I personally kinda dig it because it makes how ridiculous everything you might do will be)

gaunt hare
#

And so colorful and crowded and Mountain Dew

cinder vessel
#

I think I appreciate BFV's trailer because it feels more tonally in line with how people treat the games anyway, at least from my more outsider perspective

#

Hectic, ridiculous, hoping for those clinch moment kills

#

Although it is odd that they didn't show more theatres of war. I think that's what you were getting at more with the scale comment?

gaunt hare
#

Yes. They replaced it with horrible banter

cinder vessel
#

lol, that & the cheesed HUD are my two least liked things from that trailer

jade lake
#

ello ol friend

#

god that was annoying

#

they repeated the same voice line 2 times

cinder vessel
#

Personally I do like that it's colorful, but then again, I'm probably not even gonna play it so 🤷

minor wraith
#

a little off topic but did anyone understand the controversy when kingdom come deliverance came out

gaunt hare
#

Basically some people didn't think that Kingdom Come Deliverance didn't represent any people of color that would have existed in a realistic medieval setting (that the game was trying to achieve). Just how many colored people there would have been, historians disagree.

#

Game is 100 percent white people in an area that was, at the time, almost completely white people.

cinder vessel
#

Although, as indicated, historically speaking there's disagreement & recognition that it wouldn't have been out of character for people of color to be in the area/pass through/etc.

minor wraith
#

ya but i dont get how that makes warhorse racist

gaunt hare
#

The guy who runs Warhorse made things worse for himself by being... kind of racist.

#

Or at least just kind of a dick

cinder vessel
#

Yup

gaunt hare
#

I don't know, I don't follow the dude.

#

Warhorse would have gotten much less heat if the guy hadn't have been a douche.

cinder vessel
#

The guy from my understanding has had a consistent case of foot in mouth

#

If he'd stuck to talking about the game, nobody would have cared much

gaunt hare
#

Game looks funny though and I definitely am going to play it.

#

Even if it's a mess.

cinder vessel
#

It cracks me up that it goes for "historical accuracy" yet still has healing potions or somesuch

minor wraith
#

i think there are healing potions because back then people believed in that stuff

gaunt hare
#

Haha, yes. He acts like he's taking a stand too. Like he's doing the honorable thing, or like a bunch of people want to stop him from making a historical game.

cinder vessel
#

Problem is, they literally work as healing potions

#

It'd be one thing if they were there and did fuckall, but they work, as I understand it, lol

gaunt hare
#

The game seems to have a constant case of having really cool ideas and then finding a way to fuck it up.

#

Like it's almost nonsensical where they chose to put a video game thing in, and where to put a realism feature in

#

Actually, that would have been really funny.

#

And historically accurate.

#

To have you go on a quest for a bottle of snake oil

#

Your character even believing it's working because of placebo while his leg is still broken.

cinder vessel
#

lol, right?

minor wraith
#

im highly surprised the sjw havent gone for conan exiles yet because you can have slaves

gaunt hare
#

Im beginning to see a pattern here, dragonboy

cinder vessel
#

People would probably complain too much about a thematically fitting misleading bit like that

gaunt hare
#

That's what gamers do, we complain.

cinder vessel
#

I thought we played games 🤔

gaunt hare
#

Oh goddamn it I knew I was forgetting something.

#

Not a no man's sky gamer. A no man's sky gamer doesn't play no man's sky, we just talk about updates.

cinder vessel
#

Speaking of, I returned to Gravity Rush today to try & chill a bit, forgot how silly & fun that game is

#

Also I'm almost convinced it has one of the best relaxing character idle anims ever

gaunt hare
#

Huh, never played or actually looked it up. Nice visuals.

cinder vessel
#

When you go back to your house to save, she chills on her bed & it looks perfect. Relaxed & cozy

#

Reminds me a bit of Spyro's idle anims, I think

#

Pretty sure there's one where he just plops down & starts snoozing & it's great

gaunt hare
#

Instead of in gta where they lay down on top of their covers fully clothed, shuffle slightly, and close their eyes

cinder vessel
#

lol

#

I love small details like that in games, whether relaxing or impatient, like Sonic

gaunt hare
#

I've been browsing quite a lot of game and movie details subreddits

#

A detail I noticed in bloodborne was when you get splashed with buckets of blood (as you do) when you're wearing a mask; if you remove the mask, the blood only covers the part of your face that was showing.

#

Fromsoft doesn't do too much in the animation department sometimes so that was cool to see.

#

One of the reasons their world's look so good is they are just corridors with some breakable boxes lying around

cinder vessel
#

😮

#

I hadn't realized that regarding the mask, that's cool!

gaunt hare
#

Ohhh, remember how we were talking about Prey?

#

Wait, you played it right?

cinder vessel
#

New Prey?

gaunt hare
#

Ya

#

In the beginning you're being put through a series of tests over and over (your mind being wiped each time). You go from the floor your apartment is on to the testing room. Turns out though, while you're in the elevator, the room is just changing via hydrolics. (The elevator isn't going up or down even though it tells you it is)

#

The detail is, if you drop like a book or something outside the elevator door, it will still be there when you come out

#

Effectively proving you never left the floor you're on before the twist is revealed.

cinder vessel
#

crap now I have to put off playing for another year /s

cinder vessel
#

maaan Detroit: Become Human is typical David Cage & it's sad

#

At least by all accounts I'm reading so far

#

I'd love for a more committed android narrative game with Detroit's production values, and a more interestingly imagined future

gaunt hare
#

I agree, but at the same time

#

David Cage games are hilarious.

#

Try waiting to play a David cage game until you have a group or a pair of people and some drinks

#

They become masterpieces.

#

Well not masterpieces but they become pretty good.

#

Unfortunately, (no disrespect) I lost hope at Heavy Rain he would ever truly realize what he's clearly going for.

uncut bramble
brisk merlin
#

Lmao

gaunt hare
#

Haha I don't know if this is serious or not.

brisk merlin
#

Same

uncut bramble
#

It is serious. I love the Sims lol

#

And Seasons has been a wanted expansion for like 4 years now

gaunt hare
#

Sims is great

#

but they are charging for expansions while also not giving us the expansions we want

#

I want Sims: Getting High

uncut bramble
#

Well, you only really have to buy the ones that interest you.
Sesasons has been wanted for years, and now it's here, so yay

#

I don't think they'll ever make the sims getting high. But the bubble machines in it are pretty close in the buffs it gives to sims lol

gaunt hare
#

"Jessica Sim is addicted to smack, she just sold the television"

uncut bramble
#

haha, I think they can get "addicted" to the bubble machine

gaunt hare
#

My version is much darker.

uncut bramble
#

but they have to keep their rating. hence the wine not being called wine, blood not being called blood etc ha

gaunt hare
#

Jessica's got track marks

uncut bramble
#

😷

gaunt hare
#

I haven't kept up with Sims in a while

blazing torrent
#

lmao okapi

gaunt hare
#

but are you disappointed in the expansions?

#

I gotta say, they seem pretty disappointing from a consumer point of view

#

They charge for expansions of their expansions

#

#NotCool

uncut bramble
#

not overly. it's not the sims 3 - but then I can still go back to that, for that experience.
Go to Work was pretty bad. But cats and dogs, and get together was great

#

Don't get that confused - they aren'te xpansions, there's only been 4 (including seasons)

#

Then theres the stuff packs, which you're talking about

#

It's not cool, but it's just a replacement for the sims 3 ingame store

#

Where you could micro-purchase cosmetics

blazing torrent
#

bad

uncut bramble
#

Then there's the gamepacks which add gameplay elements. They're all fairly priced

gaunt hare
#

The total price for everything is 300 dollars

#

Are you fucking shitting me

uncut bramble
#

Stuff Pack - Cosmetic - £7.99
Game Pack - Costmetic and one gameplay element - £14.99
Expansion - full costmetic, gameplay overhaul - £30

#

Yeah but it's all optional

#

The Sims 3 was the same

gaunt hare
#

That's messed up

#

Not cool

uncut bramble
#

Not really. The Pets stuff pack was a bit of a low blow as it was content that was blantetly witheld from that expansion.
But the rest of it is fair game.
Take the fitness pack for example - £14.99 if you like that kind of stuff in game. If you don't, you don't buy it.

gaunt hare
#

No human being should ever even have the option to spend 300 dollars on sim

#

That's not Christian

uncut bramble
#

Why? People spend a lot more on other games

#

Look at Train Simulator

blazing torrent
#

me and @haughty rapids have spent probably $300 on a free to play game

#

all optional

gaunt hare
#

Train simulator runs a lot deeper than sim, and I am still not ok

uncut bramble
#

.US$3061.91 for all the Train Simulator 2016 DLC.

gaunt hare
#

I'm not ok with any of this!

#

This is all bad!

uncut bramble
#

People do it because it's their hobby, and maybe they don't play any other games

gaunt hare
#

You are all trying to corrupt me!!

uncut bramble
#

If you get 300 hours out of a game you've invested 300 quid in, it's £1 per hour. Cheaper than the cinema.

gaunt hare
#

I won't fall for it!

uncut bramble
#

Then you look at another hobby - say photography. One camera lens alone can cost £300.

gaunt hare
#

@blazing torrent what's the free to play game?

knotty osprey
#

how about the hobby ‘Space’
one rocket = few million, maybe more

uncut bramble
#

hahaha

gaunt hare
#

It's damn confusing to try to keep up with what's appropriate pricing

#

because I'm so goddamn broke constantly.

knotty osprey
#

one space station = few billion per year

uncut bramble
#

I guess it's all value in the eye of the beholder, and where your interests lie/what your budget is.
I've no issue in spending money on Sims expansions I like.
But I'm never gonna guy a dark souls game. Even if it's £2. It's just not a game I will enjoy.

#

Where some people might spend £60 on dark souls, no issue

#

Value in the eye of the purchaser

gaunt hare
#

So when I say "5 dollars for a sandwich?? Y'all are crazy!! I'm going back under my bridge" then everyone else is chilling with the price

#

Jesus...

uncut bramble
#

haha, I'd pay £5 for a sandwich with nice tuna. But not with onions.

gaunt hare
#

You and I are polar opposites, mate

knotty osprey
#

I would spend €200 on Elite Dangerous accessories if I had the money lying around tbh

gaunt hare
#

Dark souls beats sims black and blue

uncut bramble
#

Haha, if we were the same it would be boring. And one of those poor devs would have nobody buying their games :p

gaunt hare
#

I guess I've come around to elite pricing...

#

At least they stick to cosmetic

knotty osprey
#

mhm

gaunt hare
#

I used my free coin to change the spaceship voice

uncut bramble
#

Yeah! There's a big difference between cosmetic/gameplay additions, vs witholding stuff that should have been in the game from the beginning and charging for it.
The Sims has handled that well. There was no swimming pools in TS4. But there was in every other generation of the game.
IT was a free update, not a paid addition

knotty osprey
#

got the base game + DLC and the one solid colours pack that only works on the sidewinder for €26,49 via Humble Bundle

gaunt hare
#

Oof. I don't know man, Sims really seems to be pretty damn anti consumer

#

When you compare to what you get with other titles

uncut bramble
#

They've supported the game with free content/gameplay updates for 4 years now

#

I don't know many other devs doing that

gaunt hare
#

I don't know if I'd call it free if there's 250 dollars of content to buy..m

uncut bramble
#

But that's all cosmetic/optional.
It doesn't take away from the fact they've added core gameplay elements for free, for 4 years

#

Pools, nannys, new build types, glass roofs, toddlers

#

and supernaturals

#

things that have been paid for content in previous generations

gaunt hare
#

I don't man, it sounds like you've drank the koolaid, but I'm over here playing NMS so I'll wait and see until I play Sims 7 in five years when I have a PC

#

But it doesn't look good from outside

uncut bramble
#

NMS doesn't look so good from the outside either

#

But inside we know the truth

#

Same with most games

gaunt hare
#

That's my point

uncut bramble
#

People who play = know the best
Everyone else = skewed view of what's happening

gaunt hare
#

I'm saying it's hypocritical for me to judge when I'm playing nms

uncut bramble
#

haha it's not hypocritical at all - nothing wrong with a bit of discussion 😃

#

if anything, you can learn stuff from each other

gaunt hare
#

I have a couple friends in the Sims 3 community who fucks around with mode

#

mods*

uncut bramble
#

And if you're interested at all, this is the free content that's been added in the last 4 years, withotu needing to spend a penny beyond the base game

#

Some of the mod creators out there are 👌

gaunt hare
#

Sims 4 just doesn't sound worth it, and really sounds pretty cheap...

uncut bramble
#

It's worth it if you enjoy the franchise/will get gametime out of it

#

If you won't, then it's not worth it, I'd agree

gaunt hare
#

How many hours you logged in Sims 4

uncut bramble
#

not on this computer, it's on my laptop. but I think around 400. That's not all me though - my sister plays alot if she comes over lol

#

And that's not including my PS4 version either lol

gaunt hare
#

I've never paid more than 60 dollars for a game and I hope I never break that

#

I'm poor!!

#

Rarely paid 60 dollars

uncut bramble
#

Lol; your situation may change though, and then your views on pricing of things will too.
When I was 16/17 I'd never have been able to get the sims expansions etc. I'd have been lucky to get the base game.

gaunt hare
#

But that's also why I'm not pc master race

#

Are there porn mods on Sims 4 yet?

uncut bramble
#

I'm sure there probably are. It's not something I'd be into so I've never looked

gaunt hare
#

Sims begs to be modded.

uncut bramble
#

Of course, they make it moddable because they know what a great job the community does

gaunt hare
#

I guess my favorite part of the sims was always how different a town looked after dozens of hours of play

uncut bramble
#

yeah for sure. that was most noticeable in TS1 with the isometric view I think

gaunt hare
#

When youve got five families with three generations each things can get pretty interesting

#

Makes you feel attached to the Sims because of history and stories you've made.

uncut bramble
gaunt hare
#

I mean more with generations

#

Like you'd see a granddaughter of your first character you made five months ago marry a character you made two months ago

#

Sims was never simulation enough for me.

#

Is funny though

uncut bramble
gaunt hare
#

My favorite was a guy who trapped sims in a sweatshop

#

And made them all work for one guy

#

Yeesh!

#

Ya that's pretty cool

blazing torrent
#

@gaunt hare the game was maplestory

cinder vessel
#

just glanced above a little to see what was up & I'm with Okapi for the most part. $60 is my cap on games, & I only ever really spend that when I have spare cash, special occasion, or really want it.

Otherwise I wait for sales these days.

#

Like, even sales on DLC

cinder vessel
#

Btw friendly heads up, don't get Dishonored 2: Limited Edition until ya start seeing people saying that Bethesda sorted itself out in regards to the Dishonored 1: Definitive Edition codes included

#

Apparently they expired pretty quick but the packaging says nothin' about the expiration dates

hidden falcon
#

thanks bethesda

cinder vessel
#

🤔 wat. Retail copies for a couple games I'm looking at (Dishonored 2 & .hack//GU Remastered) are cheaper than the digital PC copies

royal mirage
#

I'm going to be honest, I like FarCry 3 & 4 better than 5.

#

Mostly because the villian is overly charismatic in both.

#

While 5 is just purely insane

#

And the fact that you had to skin animals for crafting resources, and not just for selling

hidden falcon
#

:honk:

cinder vessel
#

As time goes on, & even now really, I think you'll find many saying about the same.

#

Although I think some critics are warmer to 4 than 3 or 5

#

Oh btw, if you were putting off buying Dishonored 2 on PC due to concerns about compatibility, it apparently has a demo now, so that's good!

cinder vessel
#

In other news, my PC can only somewhat run it. More open spaces with multiple people going about really drop the framerate for me

😮 Bethesda is gonna hate me

why

@cinder vessel

cinder vessel
#

I'm prodding them about Dishonored 2: Limited Edition still being sold with expired game & content codes

jade lake
#

lol

#

lemme know how it ends

cinder vessel
#

I'm really curious too. If they go all, "Ah sorry can't do anything," I can go around saying Deep Silver is a better publisher 😮

jade lake
#

that'll tell em

#

lol

cinder vessel
#

But seriously, Deep Silver pulled a similar thing & I got in contact with them & they were able to reenable their codes, sooo

jade lake
#

bethesda is kinda weird with customer support, my codes didnt work for my FO4 season pass and instead of getting me a new code they just refunded half of my 40$

cinder vessel
#

O_o

jade lake
#

yup

#

they suck

cinder vessel
#

That's weird as hell

#

What platform was that on, PC?

jade lake
#

ps4

cinder vessel
#

wat

jade lake
#

ik even weirder

cinder vessel
#

I didn't even realize they could do something like that

#

What's really gonna baffle these guys is that I sent my support prod in the day before I bought the game, lol

jade lake
#

im not sure its legal at all, but i just decided to move on ya know, other things to worry about lol

cinder vessel
#

Yeah, I get that for sure

jade lake
#

the only good customer service ive ever gotten in the gaming industry was nintendos

#

the new 3ds didnt come with a charger, so i complained to them about it. they sent me a 20$ eshop gift card and a free charger with free shipping

#

it was really neat

cinder vessel
#

Ah damn, I shoulda done that

jade lake
#

maybe the guy i was talking to that day felt generous

cinder vessel
#

I just used my friend's charger until they restocked 3DS chargers

#

Picked up a New 3DS around holidays, so of course everyone else was too, and the chargers were all pretty much outta stock in the regular shops I'd think to go to

#

But I also knew ahead of time that it didn't come with one, so I wasn't too upset

jade lake
#

lol, thats my only gripe with nintendo, the weird decisions they constantly make

cinder vessel
#

Yeepp

jade lake
#

they make arguably the best 1st party titles ever soooo

#

lol

cinder vessel
#

They obviously just thought everyone would be buying the New 3DS as an upgrade to their existing one

jade lake
#

i got lucky with the majoras mask one at launch

#

it was pretty neat

cinder vessel
#

Oh speaking of weird decisions, Bethesda support had me resend my proof of purchase stuff as individual images instead of a pdf.

#

I mean, ookaayy

#

PDF is much more convenient imo, but whatever

jade lake
#

thats really fuckin odd

winter yew
#

@cinder vessel If shipping wouldn't cost as much as the price of one brand new, i'd send you one 😛

Haha, I've one now, so is all good

oh good:D

Bethesda out here tryin' to convince me all these Limited Edition copies of Dishonored 2 in circulation are leftover preorder copies, despite their own marketing saying preorders of standard editions would be the ones to come with Dishonored: Definitive Edition, pfft

@light cairn did you see the great news about killer7

it's so goooooooood

the only suda51 game i've actively played is Let It Die

i'm so glad it's being made more readily available

I still hope that somehow, some way, they convert Let It Die to a game you can simply buy

light cairn
#

it's a really good game underneath all the microtransactions

cinder vessel
#

Yeah, I enjoyed what I played of it at the time

cinder vessel
#

lol, support teams probably hate my pedantic ass, but...
"Both codes were preorder codes that have since expired. Regrettably, we are not able to replace expired codes."
It's not that you're unable but that your upper management won't allow it.

light cairn
#

they lost the keygen /s

cinder vessel
#

I still love how 9 days after I'd written Deep Silver's support off on being able to reactivate my expired codes, they come back & are like, "Yo btw we got it working give it a day or two tho."

cinder vessel
#

So the conclusion of my Bethesda support adventure amounted simply to an insistence that, "No, we cannot replace/reactivate expired codes included with new copies of the game [despite them being a selling point]."

This is funny. I have Pokemon GO loaded up on my phone and I lured the two stops across the street that I can reach from my apartment and I see this guy out there looking around all paranoid because he can't see me lol. I made it worse by attacking the Pokemon Gym xDDDD

pc GWnanamiRemThink

winter yew
#

it's locked to 60fps

#

if that means anything to you

light cairn
#

nope

#

60hz monitor only 😛

winter yew
#

this is a direct gameplay recording from my setup

#

so can see just how well it runs and looks compared to the ps3 version

light cairn
#

is it kinda monster hunter-y in terms of progression?

winter yew
#

no no

#

its more arcadey than anything

#

you kill enemies, they drop boxes of health / armor / guns

light cairn
#

ah cool

winter yew
#

you pick up weapons that are relevant to your class (there's 4 classes)

#

and they also vary depending on what level you play through

light cairn
#

"attack the giant insects and save the citizens"
well i guess it's direct 😛

winter yew
#

so there's easy/normal/hard/harder/inferno

#

Higher levels, at higher difficulties, drop higher level weapons.

#

i'm gonna quote someone on this next bit

#

'To get Armor, play every level on Easy, Normal, and then move to the next level. I have over 1600 Armor and I'm only on level 30 or so in the flow - but I've been replaying lots of early levels, at Hard, Hardest, and Inferno if I can. Some levels, even on Easy, drop a ton of Armor. Leave a few enemies alive so you can run around collecting it all.'

jade lake
#

that game looks fuckin neat

winter yew
#

it's a blast to play with people

#

4 player co-op

#

ONLINE even

light cairn
#

it looks really fun

jade lake
#

oof

#

it does

light cairn
#

on sale for $30 on humble right now GWnanamiRemThink

winter yew
#

is it? 😮

light cairn
#

yeah, was just looking if anywhere had it

winter yew
#

cool

#

looks like it doesn't include the DLC

#

but dont worry about not having that just yet

#

the main game itself has TONS of content

#

80-ish levels, hundreds of weapons to unlock

light cairn
#

do the weapons actually feel somewhat different or are they more just stat boosts?

winter yew
#

they feel different yes

light cairn
#

neat

winter yew
#

like some of the wing diver's plasma cannons you have to be careful with or you'll blow yourself up

#

or the air raider's airstrikes can also kill you if you aren't careful

light cairn
#

i didn't know there was building destruction GWnanamiWOKE

winter yew
#

ranger class is mainly infantry

#

and yes

#

90% of the levels have fully destructible buildings

#

there's some special case scenarios that wont let you for some reason

#

and some underground levels

light cairn
#

dang that's a bigg monster

#

lol, all the text chat bubbles that just say "EDF! EDF!"

#

the most useful communication 😛

winter yew
#

yes

#

they are quick shouts

#

think like Rocket League's quick shout system

#

only this has a full array of communications

light cairn
#

yeah i'm quite aware with all the japanese games i've played

#

especially when they work in single player and just make me sad GWnanamiKonataCry

winter yew
#

and also you can 'sing' the EDF anthem

light cairn
#

oh nice

winter yew
#

and the AI soldiers will sing along with it

#

its hilarious and gets me amped up every time 😛

light cairn
#

oh my god

winter yew
#

XD

#

there's a variation i heard in another mission that this guy was singing by himself

#

something about his family getting killed by the aliens so he had nothing left to fight for

light cairn
#

oh my god

#

(oops i said it twice GWnanamiCoconaSweat )

winter yew
#

oh oh its at 1:30

#

'stop singing that depressing crap!'

light cairn
#

holy crap, lol

winter yew
#

the end of the song is basically referencing EDF 2017 on the Xbox

#

Xbox 360 I mean

#

that was the first EDF game I ever played

#

from good ol Blockbuster

#

was just a random pick, I was like 'lets find the crappiest looking game and try it'

#

15 hours later I had beaten the game through twice alone, and with a friend.

#

and I wanted more

#

they ported EDF 2017 to the Vita so I can relive that game any time I want but EDF 4.1 is my main jam

light cairn
#

heh

winter yew
#

also Personal advice

#

Do NOT get Insect Armageddon

#

it was made by a Western developer and it's a poor excuse for an EDF game

#

they tried to give it a storyline and a more serious feel

#

with actual mission objectives

#

and the ending is such a shitty cliffhanger

light cairn
#

i was wondering why that one was only $10 lol

winter yew
#

you dont even get to take down the fucking mother ship for fuck's sake

light cairn
#

that's some bs right there

winter yew
#

the team just bails and runs with their tails tucked

#

"WE GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE!"

#

total shit

#

yeah dont bother with it

#

I made that mistake

#

because it was the first EDF I saw on PC and I jumped all over it

light cairn
#

sounds kinda like what happened with Dead Rising, where once they gave it to the western devs they ruined it 👀

winter yew
#

then regret lol.

#

yes

#

someone is making a 'sequel' to Insect Armageddon that's called "Iron Rain" that looks like an EDF game with higher production value

light cairn
#

huh 🤔

winter yew
#

as far as i know it's not out yet

light cairn
#

the monster hunter world of edf? GWnanamiIllyaThink

winter yew
#

lmao

#

no

light cairn
#

😛

winter yew
#

EDF will always be an arcade shooter

light cairn
#

yeah, something like this i feel kind of has to be campy to work

winter yew
#

and then EDF 5 just came out in Japan

#

and was confirmed for an English translation

#

still no word on a US release yet or even PC for that matter

#

looks pretty much like 4.1 to me but probably more variations of monsters and weapons and stuff

#

that fucking K-Mart Discount Godzilla

light cairn
#

oh dang that hellfire

winter yew
#

yes ;D

winter yew
rare coral
#

I love a lot of game albums

#

destinys specifically

jade lake
#

anyone here play starbound

#

im thinking about buying it

brisk merlin
#

i do

jade lake
#

is it good?

#

i heard its like terraria but sci fi and it kinda reminds me of stardew in a good way, so it looks neat

hidden falcon
#

yees

#

i played it for 95 hours but then i deleted my base with a mod on accident and i stopped playing it GWcfcThonk

jade lake
#

oh man

#

rip in chat

#

that sucks man

hidden falcon
#

salsasean i was getting bored so i would have stopped playing soon anyway

jade lake
silent atlas
#

starbound is A+

#

and yeah you described it perfctly

#

terrarria is like training wheels to get into the genre

#

starbound is the actual game you wanted all along

#

frakking universe mod is the patch the devs wish they thought of

brisk merlin
#

ehh

#

I think i like terraria more

winter yew
#

Have you guys played Dark Souls remastered yet

jade lake
#

its out?

winter yew
#

Yep

#

2 days ago

cinder vessel
#

Given it's the same game as before, can't say I've felt the urge to get it right away

rigid haven
#

It's like, hmm

#

Pokemon Ultra S&M

#

Well, not quite

#

But what I mean is, if you've played it before, there's no real need to buy it again

light cairn
#

it's not even

rigid haven
#

Ultra adds very few new things over the old one

light cairn
#

it adds nothing

rigid haven
#

but if you haven't played before, woo, buy buy buy

light cairn
#

DS: Remastered has like 2-3 minor quality of life improvements, and a ton of very questionable visual changes

rigid haven
#

DS R has switch portability soon, right?

#

Oh

light cairn
#

yeah, i'm waiting for the switch version

#

it's a slap in the face to PC owners

rigid haven
#

Ohh, so they fucked up on the remake?

light cairn
#

it's debatable at the very least

#

and there's still practically every bug of the original

rigid haven
#

Ahh

#

Just like Skyrim

limber harness
#

but can we spare sif

rigid haven
#

Uh, every skyrim release

light cairn
#

Skyrim did way more with their enhanced or whatever

cinder vessel
#

except for fix bugs

rigid haven
#

Yeah, but same bugs, which was kinda weird in my opinion, but ah well

#

N. Sane Trilogy did wonders for Crash, but I only really noticed that because the old one looks like ass

light cairn
cinder vessel
#

I still like the old look of Crash in some ways

rigid haven
#

I've always liked remakes for the fact that they let players play the game on current gen consoles

#

If, uh, that makes sense

#

For lack of a better example, look at KH HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix

cinder vessel
#

I wish they had done more to blend Crash's eyes into his head/overall look

rigid haven
#

Yeah, Remaster Crash looks a bit weird

#

Slightly more traditional than other Crash games, though

#

Didn't Crash of the Titans or something change him drastically?

cinder vessel
#

But also yeah, I generally appreciate rereleases/remasters

swift shuttle
#

So only allowed to talk about other games if you have a server rank or something?

cinder vessel
#

Uhh, I dunno tbh, re: Woop's comment above

swift shuttle
#

I may be a dev but I’m really still only a player lol

#

And it is my favorite game.

#

I like it better than final fantasy games which is saying a lot.

rigid haven
#

Hmm

#

Really?
