#

not like I do from reading a novel.

#

The best novels I've read

cinder vessel
#

So the character doesn't matter

gaunt hare
#

or the best movies

twin grove
#

That's a bit of a silly blanket statement.

winter yew
#

People play doom for the story? GWcorbinHolyFuck

twin grove
#

Have you read the lore?

winter yew
#

no

twin grove
#

There's a surprising amount of it.

cinder vessel
#

Any time you try to mention the story you get @winter yew's response

twin grove
#

From the Slayer's Testaments.

gaunt hare
#

If anything though, someone ignoring the lore makes them more in character as Doomguy

cinder vessel
#

I mean yeah

gaunt hare
#

Doomguy doesn't give a fuck about the lore

#

doomguy wants to rip and tear

#

When I play Doom I'm playing as Doomguy

cinder vessel
#

The game basically doesn't give a fuck about backstory

gaunt hare
#

in fact

twin grove
#

Doom Slayer's pissed because after killing demons for literal eons in hell, he got sealed away in a tomb and yeeted by the big blue-eyed robot dude Samuel Hayden.

gaunt hare
#

one of my biggest problems with Doom 2016 is that you can't just punch your way through every cutscene

#

like that scene in the beginning where the computer tries to talk to you but you throw the computer away

#

That's great

winter yew
#

It os

#

is

gaunt hare
#

so for the scene where the dude traps you in a room with screens to talk exposition

twin grove
#

Honestly, I think 2016 needed more story.

gaunt hare
#

why can't I just leave

cinder vessel
#

Lol

gaunt hare
#

Just break the screen and dip

#

cause I'm Doomguy

#

and I hate this dude talking

#

and I can't be contained

twin grove
#

What they had was good, but it needed more.

gaunt hare
#

or slowed

cinder vessel
#

More story kills Doom

gaunt hare
#

Plus it would be more fun for speedruns

twin grove
#

Have you seen the trailers for Eternal?

gaunt hare
#

the ability to just rip and tear through the whole game

#

like, if you want

#

you can watch the cutscenes

cinder vessel
#

Because Doom is the gamiest game that gamed

gaunt hare
#

but also, if you want, you can just leave

winter yew
#

Doom is really fun when you want to let out anger

gaunt hare
#

or break whatevers in front of you

#

Doom Eternal looks choice

twin grove
#

'choice'?

gaunt hare
#

really good

twin grove
#

Oh

cinder vessel
#

Doom Eternal doesn't have SnapMap so I don't give a fuck

twin grove
#

Well that game just breathes story.

gaunt hare
#

It doesn't

#

It has lore

#

it has backstory

twin grove
#

What happened to Earth? Who is this A.I.? How did they make the BFG 10k? What is it shooting at?

gaunt hare
#

but it does not "breath" story

cinder vessel
#

And it doesn't seem like there will be modding tools so it's like, owell

twin grove
#

Those four questions are brought-up in your face.

gaunt hare
#

Ya no, I remember

twin grove
#

So I doubt they'd be ignored.

cinder vessel
#

Demons were unleashed on Earth time to fuck them up

gaunt hare
#

but I still don't play doom for the story

#

and most people definitely do ignore them

twin grove
#

Proof?

gaunt hare
#

I don't have any proof, because I'm not a doom archivist

#

and I haven't taken polls

cinder vessel
#

People hated Doom 3 for one

gaunt hare
#

but hey, what are ya gonna do

twin grove
#

Well you can't just make a statement for an entire fanbase and expect it to be taken seriously.

gaunt hare
#

I can.

#

I did.

twin grove
#

Also, Doom 3 came out a long while ago.

#

And that's silly.

cinder vessel
#

Doom 3 was a low point in the series for fans

gaunt hare
#

You're silly.

twin grove
#

Yeah, but Doom 3's fanbase and Eterna;/16's fanbase are probably a lot of different people.

#

There's a big gap between them, meaning new people.

cinder vessel
#

Yeah, and those new people like the minimal story of Doom 2016

twin grove
#

The only main critique I heard about Doom 2016 was its lack of story.

gaunt hare
#

My main critiquie is literally that I can't be Doomguy and just smash through everything as quick as possible

#

that they interrupt me with cutscenes

twin grove
#

You can't just break through the game willy-nilly?

gaunt hare
#

Any time control is taken away from me in a Doom game, I don't like it

cinder vessel
#

i saw more criticism of the multiplayer

gaunt hare
#

Yes, that's what I want to do

#

Yes, multiplayer was biggest criticism for sure

twin grove
#

I mean, a game has to have some kind of challenge.

gaunt hare
#

but I didn't play it because we were horrible

twin grove
#

Otherwise it's not really a game, per say.

gaunt hare
#

You're not getting what I'm saying at all

twin grove
#

Honestly, I really liked the multiplayer. It wasn't amazing, but was still fun.

gaunt hare
#

I'm not saying I want there to be less challenge

cinder vessel
#

they want uninterrupted challenge

gaunt hare
#

I'm saying I don't want to be interrupted

#

from challenge

#

exactly.

twin grove
#

A cutscene is no different than the downtime moving from one area to the next, though.

gaunt hare
#

There's too many cutscenes I can't leave, too many times you're trapped in a room

twin grove
#

It's just a different format.

gaunt hare
#

I don't want any of that

#

just the ability to rip and tear through everything

#

and you can keep the exposition

twin grove
#

Then the game would get stale.

gaunt hare
#

What???

cinder vessel
#

Doom really doesn't need cutscenes, lol

gaunt hare
#

Its doom

#

the whole game is shooting stuff

twin grove
#

If the game is all action, you'd get used to it.

#

It's human nature.

gaunt hare
#

What?

twin grove
#

Repetition equals boredom.

gaunt hare
#

I can't

#

I can't even

twin grove
#

?

winter yew
#

man

cinder vessel
#

The action isn't all the same

twin grove
#

Yes' I'm aware.

#

But if there was no downtime, it would blend together.

cinder vessel
#

Not really

twin grove
#

You wouldn't get a break and shooting things would start to feel the same.

cinder vessel
#

Vary the enemy encounters

#

Vary the level designs

#

etc. etc.

twin grove
#

Yes, but the core gameplay would still act the same, you're still hitting demons with weapons non-stop.

gaunt hare
#

What you're describing

#

is 90 percent

#

of Doom

#

2016

#

That's almost the entire game

#

which is why its awesome

#

cause that's why you get Doom

twin grove
#

Didn't you just complain about 'all the cutscenes'?

gaunt hare
#

its to shit monsters

#

in the face

#

Yes

#

I want that 10 percent

#

to be skippable

#

thats my one criticism

#

I want it to be 100 percent

#

smashing through Mars

#

killing demons

#

never being stopped

#

always ripping, tearing, platforming

#

searching for clues

#

getting collectables

#

never stopped by a cutscene

#

never stopped by exposition

#

if I don't want to be

cinder vessel
#

Doom is more arcade experience than action narrative

twin grove
#

Getting collectables and finding clues aren't killing demons, though.

gaunt hare
#

Its not a cutscene though

#

its not lore

#

its still running around

twin grove
#

But you just defeated your own point.

gaunt hare
#

being Doomguy

#

My point that I don't want cutscenes??

twin grove
#

You said you want the entire game to just be killing demons, right?

#

No cutscenes to stop you.

gaunt hare
#

Yes, no cutscenes to stop me

#

that's my point

#

no cutscenes

#

no exposition

cinder vessel
#

see ideally finding collectibles in Doom would lead into more demon killing

gaunt hare
#

they do

#

That's why the ruins system is cool

cinder vessel
#

but not enough

gaunt hare
#

Ya, I could agree with that

twin grove
#

The only 'collectables' are just the little Doomguys, technically.

cinder vessel
#

Never enough demon killing lmao

twin grove
#

It's been a couple years, so I may be wrong.

gaunt hare
#

There are ruins, armor, those things that increase your life ammo, health

#

there are the info things

#

there are other secrets

#

ANything that involves me

#

controlling my character

#

and doing stuff

#

is good

#

anything that involves someone talking to me

twin grove
#

Can you stop this annoying post spacing too, btw?

gaunt hare
#

and me being stuck in a room

#

is bad

#

What

#

annoying

#

spacing

cinder vessel
#

lol

twin grove
#

Are you just mocking me?

gaunt hare
#

I

#

wouldn't

#

dare

twin grove
#

Okay, now you're just being a dick.

#

I'm out.

cinder vessel
#

I just wish Eternal had modding tools

#

or SnapMap

gaunt hare
#

I just am glad eternal has a grappling hook

#

any game is better with a grappling hook

cinder vessel
#

I hate the sounds of that

gaunt hare
#

How are they going dark souls approach on Doom?

cinder vessel
#

Invasions

gaunt hare
#

Oh

#

That sounds kind of cool

#

multiplayer sucked

#

so invasions might be more fun

cinder vessel
#

I just think it sounds annoying

gaunt hare
#

Then turn it off

#

you can definitely turn it off, I'm sure

#

It must be optional

cinder vessel
#

It's just there for replay

gaunt hare
#

Doom is a single player game

#

that's great!

#

replay is good

#

I definitely like that

#

better than regular multiplayer

cinder vessel
#

But like first run sounds annoying as fuck getting invaded

gaunt hare
#

So turn it offfff

#

you can definitely turn it off, I would assume.

#

There must be an offline mode if they are doing that.

cinder vessel
#

I mean probably

gaunt hare
#

Problem solved.

#

Its better than that catastrophy of multiplayer they had before

cinder vessel
#

but then it's wasted effort seems like

gaunt hare
#

which was like boring halo

#

I might agree, but I'd rather that than the last attempt they had.

cinder vessel
#

I just want SnapMap, lol

gaunt hare
#

I agree Doom should be single player, but this idea sounds better than that godawful thing they had before

#

SnapMap would be a better idea too

#

People didn't use it though

cinder vessel
#

Like if they chose invasion over SnapMap, blergh

gaunt hare
#

They definitely just didn't include SnapMap because it is hard to implement

cinder vessel
#

I'll never be able to afford that shit anytime soon

gaunt hare
#

Ya, I think Leon wants other things

#

like food

#

and rent

cinder vessel
#

lol yeah basically Okapi

#

lol

#

lmao

#

that's definitely the way to get people buying in

#

but also a glowing screen strapped to your head

jade lake

violet oracle

winter yew

This is a close second but you’ve probably already seen this, it’s just that this planet actually has no negative things.

broken lynx
#

Forza Horizon 2

jade lake
#

is not a good game

broken lynx
#

damn right it isnt

austere lance
jade lake
#

wheres the damn gameplay ffs

#

im tired of hearing about it let me see it lol

austere lance
#

For instance, players are able to choose the gender and appearance of their characters, and the Gamescom demo offers the first look at the game with a male protagonist. Here, there's a subtle nod to inclusivity: When the main character, V, wakes up in his apartment after a successful heist and a night of partying, the person who leaves his bed is a man. This also happens to be the case when playing as a female protagonist, so it was an unexpected, yet welcome, touch.
I wonder how many people this'll piss off, 😄

broken lynx
#

In Forza Horizon 2 my first car is a freekin McLaren p1 boois

#

XD

jade lake
#

@austere lance lol its BFV all over again

#

people bitching for no reason

@jade lake Right???

brisk merlin
#

I dont think it is...

#

Not at all

jade lake
#

buddy

#

im saying in the future

#

IGN comment sections will definitely have a hostile vibe towards it

brisk merlin
#

Wha

jade lake
#

can you

austere lance
#

Sadly

jade lake
#

read

cinder vessel
#

lol

brisk merlin
#

You said it's bfv

#

Well bf v again

jade lake
#

because of the whole "oh no women!!1111"11 thing

#

similar kinda stupid argument

austere lance
#

I'm just waiting for the inevitable shit-storm of people crying about Cyberpunk "fOrCiNg ThE gAy AgEnDa!!!

jade lake
#

lol i can already see it sadly

#

but fuck

#

i want gameplay

austere lance

Me too!

Lol. That’s so funny ahahahah

meager panther
#

i dont know why people are obsesed with star dew valley

#

i tried it and it was very bland

#

and boring

#

looked so 2000's

winter yew
#

Yeah

#

I mean

#

If you enjoyed Harvest Moon

#

then you probably will enjoy Stardew Valley

meager panther
#

whats harvest moon

tender crane
#

Anyone try out Cryofall yet? http://cryofall.com
Been quite fun the alpha is free oddly enough it's young but honestly compared most survival games has more content / polish then those survival games that been out for years now.

jade lake
#

@meager panther it’s therapeutic and chill, the grind is kinda fun for that strive to become rich as fuck, but I know that it’s hardly a game for everyone. I personally love it, but it was made ALL by one person which to me is fucking crazy

winter yew
#

I really liked the harvest moon agmes

#

games*

jade lake
#

Wrong bagged bird lol

winter yew
#

they were pretty chill

#

Eh

#

But stardew valley never got my appeal for some reason

#

basically stardew valley is the spiritual successor to harvest moon

jade lake
#

yea

iron inlet
#

Decided I needed a good city sim, contemplated re-downloading Simcity for a while, but then I remembered that Cities: Skylines exists now

teal mason
#

Sim City
Good city sim
blob

iron inlet
#

Exactly itlwLul

teal mason
#

I mean SC4 ain't bad

#

but man nothing compares to Cities

jade lake
#

sim city on snes

Rapture Rejects Alpha GWahreeVampyYay

jade lake
#

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

rigid haven
#

Hey, it's a C&H battle royale-type thing

#

It's been done a lot, sure, but it's Cyanide and Happiness so it's good in my book

jade lake
#

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

not my thing

bronze wind
#

been done a lot
cyanide and happiness
Oh boy I'm thrilled

jade lake
#

cyanide and happiness was cool 4 years ago

#

now its

#

not really funny at all

cinder vessel
#

a few good jokes but then just beat to death, several webcomics have that issue

limber harness
#

Their youtube channel is just sad now

#

Most of their "weekly videos" are either straight up ads or "compilations"

inland grail
green ocean
bronze wind
#

neat

inland grail
#

yeah pretty cool

cinder vessel
light cairn
#

Sega pls get in on this

cinder vessel
#

but like in the supportive cool way

light cairn
#

yeah

cinder vessel
#

like holy shit Sega doesn't even have to do much these days, just embrace the fans, let'em dev split the money make bank be happy

jade lake
#

was sonic ever good

#

i dont see or get the appeal

#

i tried the first game a few years ago, and its just baaaaaad

cinder vessel
#

Sonic has personality & charm

jade lake
#

sonic boom 🙂

#

sonic adventure ☹

#

sonic 06😦

austere lance
#

Sonic Heroes 👌

jade lake
#

sonic forces .

#

but durr hurr abutchera sonic 2 was good!!11

#

only thing i like from sonic is scrap brain zone from sonic 1

#

the theme

rigid haven
#

Mania was pretty fun

#

I never really got into many of the 3D games

#

I thought Black Knight was pretty good because King Arthur is the best

cinder vessel
#

The classic Sonic 3 & Knuckles is solid

#

The GameBoy Advance Sonic games weren't too shabby either

rigid haven
#

Oh, I liked the DS sonics, too

#

Sonic Rush and whatnot

#

Probably an unpopular opinion, though

#

Same with Black Knight

cinder vessel
#

I've not played the DS Sonic games, so can't say much about'em

jade lake
#

i just think sonic gets a lot of undeserved praise from the genesis days

#

sonic 1 isnt that great

cinder vessel
#

Sonic is just way cooler than Mario

jade lake
#

lol hes a total cunt

cinder vessel
#

Mario is a corporate snorefest. Sonic's a freedom fighting badass

jade lake
#

chili dogs and "uh uh you're too slow!"

#

the banter i find to be annoying in the later games

#

but hey im an ad from the 90's and sonic is SUPER edgy and kooool

cinder vessel
#

Oh yeah, banter gets to be a bit much

#

But like Sonic says a lot through sheer looks & animations, something they'd do better to recognize

#

At any rate I dig the weird as fuck settings & character design of Sonic, even if the games are inconsistent as fuck

iron inlet
#

TIme to start Cities:Skylines

#

I wonder how fast I can fuck it up

cinder vessel
#

done

iron inlet
#

I fucked it up

austere lance
#

Now do it with Surviving Mars

winter yew
#

Sonic: Unleashed was pretty good imo

#

I really liked it

iron inlet
#

That's the one where he's a werehog right?

#

if yes; Yeah I had it on PS2, wasn't that bad

winter yew
#

Yup!

#

The werewolf sonic

#

Pretty cool tbh

iron inlet
#

Definitely not the worst sonic game, so that's a plus lol

#

'06 is by far the worst

winter yew
#

Werehog

bronze wind
#

Washog

#

Ishog

agile raven
limber harness
#

Sonic 06 had a decent soundtrack

#

Everything else just sucked.

winter yew
#

Any love for Nex Machina?

wispy elbow
#

that looks too difficult for me these days. 😄

winter yew
#

Yeah it is specially on higher levels

#

I raged so much

#

and it's an Arcade style game, so you have to finish the whole levels in one run

#

The boss soundtrack is rad as hell

wispy elbow
#

that does sound cool

iron inlet
#

You know what's fucking hard?

#

Halo Combat Evolved - Truth and Rec on Legendary Difficulty

#

you're in a small room after the intro to the level practically the whole time, and it throws like 20 sword elites at you, and you can't pick up the sword in H1

#

but honestly that's why I love halo, on Legendary it's actually genuinely hard but still fun

brisk merlin
#

ha

#

yea

#

CANT WAIT FOR 28TH

#

FORSAKEN

iron inlet
#

Forsaken is the 4th tho, 28th is just the 2.0 update

#

also RIP I can't preorder Forsaken

#

big cri

brisk merlin
#

oh no

iron inlet
#

Big oh no

#

Too much other shit I've had to pay for

#

FeelsBadMan that it's the first Destiny Content Installment that I'll ever miss, feelsevenmorebadman that it'll probably kill my motivation for Destiny

jade lake
#

lol its as if you're buying the game again

#

40$ wtf bungie

#

if this is a joke it isnt funny

obtuse dune
#

Wait you need to pay $40 to buy new content for a game you already own?

bronze wind
#

Not if u play nms 😎

iron inlet
#

$40 for a DLC that’s like double the size of the game already lol. It’s the same as an expansion for WoW. 20 new levels, 200 new power levels, tons of missions, a raid, dungeons/strikes

wispy elbow
#

I just haven't played it much.

#

I'm curious about Anthem though.

bronze wind
#

Yeah same, want to see some more gameplay leading g up to release

jade lake
#

honestly i hate D2 for the sole reason they're doing the same shit they did with D1

#

fool me once shame on you

#

fool me twice

#

fuck you

light cairn
#

all the gameplay improvements are free though
(granted it shouldn't have taken a year to get back up to speed)

jade lake
#

idk man i like D1, but i dont think bungie deserves anymore of my money with how D2 went

winter yew
#

GAMERS RISE UP!

light cairn
#

and how is that?

jade lake
#

ah gee idk i spent 110$ on D2 at launch for the season pass

#

and now forsaken is another 40$

light cairn
#

the season pass always said it would only cover the first year

jade lake
#

ok? all of that content sucked

light cairn
#

fair

#

also i'm not trying to convince you to get forsaken, i'm just genuinely curious since obviously different people have different reasons/opinions

#

i can definitely see why people feel burned

wispy elbow
#

Skip, did you say Forsaken is really big dlc?

light cairn
#

Forsaken is supposed to be pretty huge, yeah

wispy elbow
#

hmm, ok, thanks, I'll take a look sometime

brisk merlin
#

forsaken, the tangled shore place will be the biggest place so far

winter yew
#

Yes

#

Can't wait

light cairn
#

😭

jade lake
#

is MHW good

iron inlet
#

Very

jade lake
#

on PC is it good

iron inlet
#

I put about 175 hours into it in the first 2 weeks and then burnt myself out hard which I regret

#

on PC it's just as good as consoles tbh

#

looks a little better, is a little smoother

#

super fun

jade lake
#

mmm idk if i should get it

light cairn
#

are you into monster hunter style games?

jade lake
#

it look great

light cairn
#

or would this be your first

jade lake
#

i played 20 hours of the MH4 demo

#

lol

#

it was fun

light cairn
#

ok then you'd love MHW

jade lake
#

MH went through that weird 3ds phase lol

iron inlet
#

MHW is honestly incredible

#

if you need convincing, look at some youtube videos of like, Odogaron, Lunastra, Deviljho, Anjanath

light cairn
#

it's not as content rich as Generations Ultimate (XX), but it more than makes up for it imo in how it streamlines gameplay

#

and just overall quality

iron inlet
#

I logged onto it just before I sold my PS4 and I was overwhelmed tbh

#

I'd previously had everything "Done"

#

I came back and there was like 348290 new things

#

and that's like, half a year after release

light cairn
#

yeah they've been adding new stuff fairly consistently

iron inlet
#

the content stream is great

light cairn
#

do you know if PC is up to date with PS4?

#

or are they lagging behind a bit

iron inlet
#

It is as far as I know

light cairn
#

nice

iron inlet
#

I remember them saying that PC would launch with everything PS4 had gotten in updates

#

(Deviljho, Lunastra, Kulve Taroth, Arch-Tempered, etc)

light cairn
#

ah

iron inlet
#

*I might be wrong tho

#

since I haven't got it on PC

#

or PS4 anymore for that matter 😅

#

SKIP CAN YOU BELIEVE UPDATE 2.0.0 IS LITERALLY THIS TUESDAY

#

I'm gonna @light cairn you so you can hype with me

light cairn
#

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

iron inlet
#

BOI I'M SO EXCITED

#

EVEN IF I CAN'T AFFORD FORSAKEN

light cairn
#

OHNO

iron inlet
#

NEW SUBCLASS TREES aeyes

#

Void knives looks amazing

light cairn
#

Solar knives aeyes

iron inlet
#

I saw some leaked perks and if they're accurate it's gonna be fucking broken in PvE

#

one of the leaked perks was like, Headshots whilst crouched turn you invisible

#

or something

#

and then kills whilst invisible charge super

light cairn

yiss

iron inlet
#

now imagine that with graviton

#

extend invisibility duration

#

(Forfeit not Lance)

#

It's gonna be mad good if those perks are correct

#

Yeah no we're not making that analogy

light cairn
#

👀

iron inlet
#

Skip what class do you main 👀

#

(Oh also Saint-14 buff is gonna be sweet, Blessings of Light and Armour of Light with bubbles that blind enemies fuck yeah)

light cairn
#

hunter but i got my warlock legendary triumph armor so

iron inlet
#

if the sword buffs that Dylan talked about are substantial then we'll be good

#

Hunter 👏

#

I switch between all three TBH

#

Warlock is probably my least favourite to main though, Titan is probably the most fun

#

Wait skip am I blanking or did Arcstrider and Sentinel not get new supers?

#

I know Arcstrider got like the spinny deflect bullets for extra damage thing so I guess that sort of counts

#

what did Sentinel get?

light cairn
#

every class got new supers

#

uh

iron inlet
#

Wait did they get like a Reinhardt shield

#

I think that was it?

#

Big shield block that allies can shoot through but has the strength of a defender bubble otherwise? I think you could move with it too?

light cairn
#

yes

#

Super - Banner Shield: The super is still the shield, but now it creates a wall of light that blocks incoming damage when the player is in the guard position — and yes, allies can shoot through this barrier. Allies firing through the barrier will extend Banner Shield’s duration.

iron inlet
#

Yes that was it

#

I could see that being crazy in like, Mayhem

#

I'm concerned that sunbreaker's new super might be trash

#

BUT Sunbreaker's OG super is amazing so I'm not too bothered

#

also Thundercrash looks crazy, gonna skip ALLL the jumping puzzles with that shit

#

this looks crazy good too

#

also GAMBIT on Saturday which is super cool, gonna play the shit out of that

light cairn
#

gib pls

iron inlet
#

Anime Void Super is my favourite for flavour

#

but Kamehameha Arc Super is pretty good too

#

Along with ICBM OF HAVOC

#

Gonna pop my super on Earth and fly all the way to the fuckin' Tangled Shore

We all went different ways with that

#

#

also yes Kev, Helm of Inmost Light must return for Thundercrash

#

but give it Aftermath and Headstrong instead

iron inlet

iron inlet

in a cinematic way

jade lake
#

why

#

did you really think that up in your head and say, "yeah thats really funny"

winter yew
#

We Happy Few is a major disappointment.

#

it had so much potential

#

The combat isn't at all satisfying at all, it's all just melee weapons with basic

#

block and

#

attack

#

no variety or anything

#

all weapons handle the same with the shovel being the strongest

#

The AI is fuckluster, if you're in a town, and one guy

#

attacks u

#

the whole fucking town

#

will follow

#

and it's full of glitches

#

The AI is dumb as fuck

#

as long as you're crouching in long bushes

#

they won't detect u

#

also the takedown animation is so poorly done

#

it made me not wanna take down enemies

#

compare it to something similar, say Far Cry Primal, the takedowns in Primal were visually satisfying, it made me wanna takedown enemies

cinder vessel

Can't wait to play big surt without vanity pack

winter yew
#

vanity pack?

#

btw it includes all the DLC cars

#

so the only cars you have to unlock are the ones that are in the main game and I guess Surf Island has some you can unlock too?

teal mason

Vanity pack is how you get unavailable dlcs including Big Surf for the OG burnout paradise on PC

Anyone in here into Metroid?

winter yew
#

I like 'em

vast quartz
#

Have you been keeping up with AM2R?

winter yew
#

eh not so much

vast quartz
#

Well, they're on version 1.4.2 as of today. It has a Fusion Mode with X Parasites and Core-X phases in three boss fights. They've added a New Game+ where the lava is lowered to the second-lowest level and opens up the structure of the game to free exploration. You can also use three different flavors of item randomizer that can either just shuffle expansion locations, item locations, or mix the two together. All of these features can be used individually or together in one playthrough. It's basically the most feature complete remake of Metroid II now.

#

They even made an official Android port with Bluetooth controller support.

hardy oar
#

@vast quartz I am!

vast quartz
#

Let me know if you want direct HTTP downloads for the latest AM2R version for Windows and Android so you don't have to bother with torrents.

hardy oar
#

I already have it.

guys, anyone from here plays Magicka?!

thorny coral
#

I beat it, but man you have to be fast at the keyboard

#

also dlc are impossible to beat without help

violet oracle
#

@burnt fox looks decent for a 1 day project

#

you should make a game like "Every Mans Refund"

#

that would be cool

#

^thats the game

#

you should make a game like that, i would totally play that

iron inlet
#

Slowly, very slowly finishing my solo LASO of Halo CE

#

2 days in, today I finished Truth and Rec, the 3rd mission of 10

#

i feel like cyberpunk is almost taking some notes out of bethesdas book with quests and character customization

#

maybe more so bioware

#

but still 🤷

@iron inlet RIP, LASO is hell

LASO...?

For sure it is, Iron hurts. Solo it means when you die the entire level resets

@violet oracle thanks! I want to expand on it since it isn't much of a game yet : )

Anyone know how long is left on the Star Citizen freefly?

winter yew
#

You mean that game that will never get released?

fossil monolith
#

oh lol I forgot about that freefly

#

I was gonna check it out too

#

Criticism of Cloud Imperium Games intensified earlier this month when the developer opted to remove the cap on in-game currency that players can accumulate in Star Citizen.

While the amount you can purchase in a single day is limited to 25,000 United Earth Credits (UEC), the limit on the number UEC you could store—150,000 UEC—was removed.

Co-founder Chris Roberts responded by saying that removing the cap did not make Star Citizen pay-to-win because there is no "specific win state" and "you win by having fun, and fun is different things to different people".

#

lel

#

ah it ends on the 27th

#

not worth it

cinder vessel
#

it's also still just in alpha, so like double not worth it

fossil monolith
#

nah it's 1000% not worth it

#

the game is shit

#

barely works on the best of hardware

#

I've been following the development, and they've barely made any progress in likw 6 years.

cinder vessel
#

yeah, their priorities are totally off

fossil monolith
#

you can buy tanks and land claims

#

both of which don't exist in-game yet

#

neither do their mechanics

#

at all

cinder vessel
#

let's get all this minutiae in everything and then maybe build a game, lmao

fossil monolith
#

you can also buy every ship for $27,000

#

it's crazy how gullible people are

#

by this point, anyone giving money deserves it

meager panther
#

Idk...star citizen finally seems to be taking shape

#

It will be popular in like 2 more years

#

Like once they start working on stuff like procedural planet ecosystem ...it will look finished

#

Currently they got cities..space..the planets terrain,ship stuff etc running good

#

Now they need to focus on "on planet stuff"

#

Like biomes,creatures etc

#

Then it will be done and be ready for alpha

#

And in two years the whole star citizen requires a monster machine to run will be done with since gpu and cpu will become powerful enough to run that even on a mid tier system

cinder vessel
#

Too bad it still kinda just looks like a generic space game

meager panther
#

Yeah thats cause the planets are still empty

#

No creature ecosystem....no biomes(so far only three biomes were shown in their vlog?)

#

Once they get those working it will look like something for once

brisk merlin

im looking forward to this game sooooo much

holy shit that looks good

#

blade runner/ghost in the shell

#

fuck yes please

drowsy beacon
#

i hope there is going to be an option to play in 3rd person. its not a super big deal if there isnt but for rpgs i enjoy playing in 3rd person more

#

i only really like 1st person in fast paced shooters similar to battlefield/cod

light cairn
#

it's confirmed fps the whole time

#

except for driving

drowsy beacon
#

oh well, still super exited

echo hill
#

idk tbh i really like fps rpgs

#

although yes it would be nice to be able to use 3rd person

#

is anyone else hyped for WW3?

sleek shadow
#

We love you worms

#

I mean

#

Bye

drowsy beacon
#

kind of like how no man's sky has the option for both

#

either way, im super excited

jade lake
#

i hope it releases next year by winter or at the very least summer 2020

echo hill
#

CP2077??

#

or WW3?

jade lake
#

CP2077

echo hill
#

ahh

#

yeah'

jade lake
#

WW3 looks like shit

echo hill
#

😮

#

I take it youre not a fan of Battlefield?

jade lake
#

i like battlefield 4

#

the other ones kinda suck

#

except for BC2

echo hill
#

Hmm

cinder vessel
#

RPGs without third-person miss many opportunities for player expression

jade lake
#

idk elder scrolls and fallout i play 1st person only and i fucking love those games

#

i really want cyperbunk to be as good as i think it is

cinder vessel
#

I would possibly like those games if they didn't crash to desktop left & right

jade lake
#

zing

#

but very true

old kelp
#

Trust me, Ive played a decent amount of cyberpunk 2020 and mike ponsmith (the dude who made this universe) has been verry involved in the making of the game. You can trust at the verry least it will be a god teer RPG

#

It will "play like the tabeltop feels"

austere lance
#

The gameplay is 😍

cinder vessel
#

Looks pretty standard to me?

jade lake
#

everyones a cynic huh

cinder vessel
#

I mean the most standout thing is way towards the end with hacking the guy

jade lake
#

cmon man if you watch all 48 minutes you cant tell me that wasnt at least pretty cool

austere lance
#

I hope the environmental destruction stuff happens all the time

cinder vessel
#

Up to that point it's pretty typical RPG fare. Run through some dialog options, shoot some folks, etc.

#

Not saying it's bad, mind, just that it's not something I haven't seen before in some way

austere lance
#

Also, judging by the lethal/non-lethal takedowns it's gonna have stealth gameplay

cinder vessel
#

Oh yeah, and bullet time via some drugs, so a dash of the ol' shooter stuff comin' in

jade lake
#

just knowing cd projekt im sure its gonna be killer

cinder vessel
#

Yeah, it looks like they're going for some bits of immersive sim stuff, which one would hope they would given hello Deus Ex is right there for inspiration, lol

#

Knowing CD Projekt I'm sure I won't have a system to be able to run it for like another few years until after its release, lol

austere lance
#

It looks like your dialogue choices can be affected by your stats. Like when she hacked into the girl's biomonitor she selected a highlighted dialogue option that looked like it could have been affected by her Tech level

jade lake
#

lol @cinder vessel if that game can run on my old busted ps4 it can sure as shit run pretty well on my moderate to ok PC

cinder vessel
#

Thing that I hope they'll sort out by release is matching the dialogue options with what's spoken, noticed that's currently not the case

#

Man, you just know that thing's running on a PS4 Pro/Xbox One X if it's running any current gen hardware, if not simply a high end PC

austere lance
#

It'll be on current consoles too, worry thee not

jade lake
#

if cyberpunk can at least get 30 frames on the original PS4, i can run it lol

cinder vessel
#

lmao I don't expect it to look that great on standard PS4/Xbox One

#

They'll have to pull some sorcery for that shit

jade lake
#

call in panic button for the switch port lol

austere lance
#

It'll look fine, companies are good at making stuff run on the older consoles. I play Witcher 3, NMS, MCC, and For Honor on my old Xbone no problem

cinder vessel
#

Eh, I'm not too concerned about the visuals anyway personally. If anything I'd be a little more concerned about potential performance issues

#

Same time they still haven't really provided much of a hook for the game yet

bronze wind
#

Yeah I mean it looked cool enough, not very much that blew me away or anything though. I like the setting so I may pick it up if it does well.

#

Also I know it's still an early build but the dude getting his head blown off in slow motion while talking, then still finishing his sentence, was hilarious lmao

@iron inlet you seeeeen? 👀

iron inlet
#

I seen 👀

winter yew
#

I still dunno how I feel about it being $40

echo hill
#

Do you know if you will get it if you bought the season pass?

#

when d2 originally came out

#

cause i preordered the $100 version

winter yew
#

I got the season pass too

#

But I don’t think it includes Forsaken

echo hill
#

Fuuuckk

wispy elbow
#

gasp

winter yew
#

Can someone confirm this? Lol

echo hill
#

To be fair though I haven't played since like october last year

wispy elbow
#

I heard it doesn't include it.

winter yew
#

Lame

echo hill
#

H*ck you Activision

#

Think it'll be worth getting on PC?

#

Or should I wait until there is a $60 version that comes with all the dlc

brisk merlin
#

no, the season pass was a year one season pass

#

included CoO and Warmind

#

forsaken is a year 2

#

and the year 2 pass comes with 3 DLCs

winter yew
#

Oh okay

#

Thanks for clarifying kev

#

I will grab it if I have the extra funds

echo hill
#

However the year 2 pass does not include forsaken

brisk merlin
#

I know

#

forsaken is like TTK, the big dlc

#

with a big story and alods of new things

echo hill
#

Yup

#

but there is a legendary edition with all 3 dlcs

#

I might cop that

brisk merlin
#

100% worth it

echo hill
#

Have they fixed a lot of the issues from release?

#

I've heard its a bit better

brisk merlin
#

yes...
