I wanna play Halo Infinite and whatever the hell else Microsoft is cooking up, but I also want to see where Sony goes with the PS5
austere lance
Honestly all PS has going for it rn are God of War and Spider-Man. There's the weird interactive movies like Detroit but those aren't worth getting a console over imo
I'm sure they're good but console-sellers? Doubtful
rigid haven
Spiderman will almost definitely get ported onto something else
I can feel it in these bones of mine

yeah, ps5

shut it skipspace you have psp in your name you fuckin PLAYSTATION BIAS BITCH
I'm sorry that was uncalled for c'mere gimme a hug
I'm biased too because I own a playstaion
But I will NOT glorify those god damn pro systems

On console?
austere lance
Yee
willow crypt
Oh nice
austere lance
Xbox and PS4 get mods, tho Sony doesn't know how to play nice so PS gets less mods
willow crypt
Ha
Yeah, I played around with a few smaller ones on PS4 couple years ago
Didn't know there were bigger ones like dlc
rigid haven
Yeah, PlayStation is weird with mods
willow crypt
Figures
rigid haven
I think it was something like "No new assets" or something
austere lance
Nobody bothers with looking at Creation Club, we all go straight to the Mods section 😄
rigid haven
I can't believe they didn't even do it well
If you're gonna make people pay for mods, at least MAKE them pay
At least 76 got anti-consumerism right
austere lance
Creation Club: Has shitty ESO import weapons and skins
Mods section: Has entire fuckin DLC's and Gucci shit like mods that add 28 new unique dragons

If you get the big Immersive Movement mod and use it for awhile then disable it the game's movement physics feel like DOOM II, lol
You don't realize how bad Skyrim's movement physics are til you mod better ones in
austere lance
That quest is much more fun with True Storms and a bunch of Skyland mods turned on, lol
If you have Wet & Cold turned on with True Storms it makes getting up there hella interesting, lol. Blinded by the blizzard all the way up and having that fuckin Frost Troll sneak attack you makes it feel like you're surviving The Thing 😂

Ooo

Realistic movement physics for people and monsters+True Storms turning the blizzard into a, well, blizzard+Wet & Cold making snow blur your vision unless you're looking down+Frost Spiders and that fucking troll=horror movie 😄 @rigid haven

reminds me, The Story So Far is PS exclusive, yeah?

I'm offended by Xbox only getting KH 3 and not the big collection
rigid haven
Apparently 3 runs at 60fps which is neat but you can't play 3 without the other 11 or so
Yeah, only 3 is on xbox
Which is weird
austere lance
That big collection exists with all of em in it, why isn't it on Xbox 😤
rigid haven
No idea
I'd like for more people to play kh
The first one is so bad and then 2 is so good in comparison and 3 is neat gameplay-wise but the story is kinda iffy
austere lance
What about the other 16, lol

@crisp sparrow Idk, it should tell you what kind of mods the pack won't play nice with
I'm not an expert on mods, I just follow the directions that mod creators put on Xbox. "Put this mod at the bottom of your load-order", "This mod won't work if you have other character model mods installed", etc

Yeah.
Actually, need to sleep. Pick up again later or something
One last thought
Demons souls took pattern memorization, clumsy but precise controls, relative fragility, and a strong risk/reward focus from Monster Hunter.
But now games based on MH get called "soulslike"

I finished Bioshock 2 today, very nice story and a pretty decent improvement over the first.
I am very much looking forward to playing Infinite.
austere lance
2 is my favorite
Dual-wielding guns and Plasmids is 👌
Plus it's fun being a Big Daddy
What's NOT fun is getting your shit kicked in by Big Sisters, lol
winter yew
Yeah I almost had a happy accident when I unlocked Inferno level 3 and had a flame thrower coming out of my hand. 😩
I hate the screams of the Big Sisters but I guess that was the attention lmao
Just a sound of shit is about to get fucked up.
Usually me.
winter yew
Was basically shock > shoot > shock > shoot for me.
I ended up as Eleanor, well her conscience.
austere lance
I can't make myself get the bad ending, killing the Little Sisters is fucked up
winter yew
I was the same in first game, I just couldn't do it.
meager panther
Are they actually little?
winter yew
Yeah they're like 5 year old girls.
austere lance
Plus they give you presents if you're nice
winter yew
They;re possessed and you have the choice to rescue or harvest, harvest gives full "adam" where rescue is half adam.
Adam gives power ups and skills.
winter yew
austere lance
@meager panther They look like this
winter yew
They do end up helping you out if you rescue them.
winter yew
Lmao
meager panther
I mean look at their eyes
light cairn
MR BUBBLES NOOOOO
austere lance
They carry big syringes with em and drain Adam from dead Splicers. And they drink it. They're actually pretty adorable in-game tho, they just wanna play and they're terrified of Splicers
winter yew
Playing as a little sister for the short time and seeing how they perceive the world was a nice little addition.
meager panther
Nah dude.they better off ded
winter yew
😂
austere lance
They're not evil, just slightly creepy
meager panther
Thats the issue
winter yew
Well at least we all know that gamer would get the bad ending if he ever played Bioshock.
meager panther
I am ok with evil
I am not ok with creepy
I am dr.doofernshmirtz of evil Incorporated
Not creepy incorporated

@winter yew I haven't played the Bioshock remasters, do the Little Sisters in Bioshock 2 still look like this?
winter yew
Yes sir.
fallen notch
I just saw this on another server... https://gfycat.com/somberunluckyfruitfly
austere lance
Good, I've seen pics of the ones in the first game and I'm definitely not a fan of how they looked, lol @winter yew
winter yew
Are they in Infinite?
fallen notch
No... Infinite is very much a reboot/reimagining rather than a sequel.
winter yew
That makes sense since it's not underwater.
austere lance
It's linked to the first two games through Burial at Sea
I just did some research on Big Sisters and now I'm traumatized
winter yew
Nice, I'll make doubly sure to sit through that one.
Hit me with the research.
I'm curious
austere lance
You finished the first game, right?
winter yew
Yes.
austere lance
So you know that there's a time gap between it and 2
winter yew
Yes sir.
austere lance
Well there were a few Little Sisters that didn't get saved by you in the first game that grew up a bit and hit adolescence, which is a VERY bad thing. Apparently puberty+the gross Adam slugs implanted in them+all the brainwashing they went through=them going feral when they turn into teenagers and turning into superpowered monstrosities
I ain't kidding about feral, there's a reason they screech like that
full pivot
i drew this a long time ago; since we're on the topic
full pivot
i mean its not great haha it was a long time ago
winter yew
Better than I could do. 🤷
full pivot
anyway sorry for interrupting haha
austere lance
Then that bitch who started up producing Little Sisters and Adam in the second game kidnapped the feral not-Little Sisters and brainwashed em even MORE so that they protect the little ones like Big Daddies do
winter yew
Not at all Aethena.
austere lance
She designed the new suits for em to wear too
winter yew
Oh damn.
Wow
Makes sense why they hate us as the player taking them, more than likely assume we mean harm.
austere lance
And then (there's always an "and then" in Bioshock) that evil bitch Lamb hit the Little ones with MORE brainwashing so they'd treat the Big Sisters like protectors. Which I'm sure would have made the little ones turn into seriously fucked up Big Sisters in a few years. Lamb probably thought that was a good thing tho, smh
Big Daddies and Big Sisters (Big Sisters more so) are mentally programmed to think everything that's not one of them or a Little Sis is a Splicer. So yeah
@winter yew
winter yew
Huh that makes perfect sense.
austere lance
Fun fact: Lamb programmed the Big ones to.....retrieve Adam she classified as "stolen". And they can sense Adam cuz they're Sisters. Basically turned the Big Sisters into serial killers. Oh, and she trained them to kidnap little girls from the surface so she could make Little ones out of them
austere lance
Cuz after the first game most of the little ones left had hit puberty and turned feral, but Lamb still thought Adam would save everyone and needed a source of it. Aka more Little Sisters.
winter yew
I did pick up a diary that she was saying something similar that Adam is amazing but it needs repeated doses or it corrupts the mind without further Adam.
So in a weird way, I kinda agree with her intention albeit twisted.
meager panther
What games are coming to steam from Windows store?

cinder vessel
you should moonlight as a thief, stealing from the locals, inadvertently realizing that they're the thieves you've been encountering, so it's a neverending loop of thievery, of them stealing from you as you steal back from them

anyone that's played games for awhile knows better than to trust talk over just showing you stuff
although one also knows not to trust shown stuff, ultimately a recording over the shoulder of someone playing at a convention is more trustworthy, lol

I would absolutely leave that part for release lol
Or just show it in release trailer
cinder vessel
lol good job i'd have written your game off and possibly only have picked up on that stuff months after its release

This way is best way tbh, can't over hype and under deliver.
Now this is over deliver.

I had genuinely just about written it off as Uncharted Star Wars snoozefest

I can't believe it's a friggin Metroidvania game, I like it way more now

I'm very much looking forward to playing.
I'm not a Star Wars fan at all but the game looks real fun.

I'm not pre-ordering (that is most likely reserved for Cyberpunk and maybe Vampire the Masquerade) but I'm definitely more interested in it

I'm not gunna day one purchase, very few games I do.

I was sold on the last gameplay that isn't even part of the game anymore.

They've only showed us Night City so far, that's not the entire map.

My BONES tell me "oh no" and they're vague and I cannot speak to them so I am assuming their assumptions

On the grounds that the pre-alpha gameplay they've completely changed by now looked better than 90% of the shit I've seen in the last few years, I'm pretty sure it's gonna be good 😄

Holy crap old Naughty Dog Narrative guys are working on the story for the new CoD MW
I didnt really care about this game, but that's cool news
full pivot
it was on special on switch so I got it for that; i forgot how much i wanted to finish Okami since my original copy was stolen and sold
i think i'll also try bloodstained; but i've actually discovered how awesome Enter the Gungeon is too haha
austere lance
@full pivot Okami is godly (pun not intended xD)

I don’t think I told you that I have the OG 360 version of Halo: Reach.
I haven’t played it so far, because I have to wait for other stuff to download.
winter yew
I just grabbed this https://store.steampowered.com/app/400020/Atari_Vault/
omg it has a lot of the Atari 2600 games I used to play at my grandparent's house x)

I've had regrets over replaying games from 8bit and before
vernal ruin
hello
anyone tried black mesa its a remake of half life with the half-life 2 engine and better graphics
my fave was miss pak-man and gauntlet
winter yew
who wanna play minecraft
winter yew
eh @charred badge I'm 33, and I could play the hell out of the old-school arcade games and Atari games
visual snow
Niggato?
winter yew
If I could have ANY arcade game remastered today it would be SmashTV. Total carnage in a violent game show where you cleared out waves of enemies and you collected guns and power-ups and money. It was a dual-stick shooter and it was FUN, and two-player mode was a blast as well, seeing who could get the most points at the end. https://youtu.be/j0JhD7Zehvc
charred badge
Great game, but 16b
I was talking about the really old ones like Dizzy
They're just... Unpleasant after a lot of exposure to modern controls
And flight games with dpads
winter yew
oh yes
I'm surprised they included Star Raiders in the collection
because that game required a separate accessory to play it properly
see that button pad on the right there?
charred badge
Mmm physical overlays
winter yew
yesss
I wonder if it can be mapped to the numpad
I'll have to look later
I know you can customize the hell out of the bindings
its just weird playing some of these games with an xbox controller lol
when a lot of them were originally experienced with the Atari joystick
charred badge
You think that's weird, try the n64 games on rare replay
Oh, in my experiments combining things in weird ways, I learned that a Titan 2 device can also apply to a numpad or full keyboard for remapping/macroing

Banjo Kazooie works fine on Xbox, lol

I've been playing Empyrion today, it's pretty nice.
I got a motorbike to ride around but haven't built a ship to doot about yet.
cinder vessel
I tried playing BattleTech last night but only finished the first mission before it crashed on loading up the second 😔
winter yew
Oof.
I've had my eyes on BattleTech for a while but just can't bring myself to buy it, there's something about it that I can't quite put my finger on that is holding me back.
cinder vessel
I picked it up on a bit of a whim when it was half-off during GOG's latest sale 'cause I've been wanting it but was holding off in hopes they'd fix issues I'd read about
The little bit of silver lining to it though is that the game has a proper crash dump I can try to sift through to figure out what's gone wonky
winter yew
Hopefully something easy to fix.
cinder vessel
Yeah, sad thing is there are loads of threads with a wide variety of issues, so...Uh...Yeah.
I shot an email over to the devs hoping maybe something will come of that, but will have to see
Only just found out that apparently there's a tool packed in the game files to send crash logs without having to do that, lol
austere lance
Why am I hooked on Dauntless today, lol
cinder vessel
Oh wait, Dauntless is free to play, right?
cinder vessel
If so that would mean I could play with friends on PS4 regardless of plus junk 🤔
rigid haven
Is it even called a selling point if it doesn't sell
cinder vessel
lol
austere lance
Idk how pc peeps add friends but if you guys play it you should add me, my Xbox tag is the same as my name here 😄
echo hill
which game?
winter yew
Dauntless
austere lance
@echo hill It's basically f2p Monster Hunter World with less grind and easier combat, lol
austere lance
It is, has cross-play between all platforms too 😄
echo hill
OH MY GOD MY HALO ENCYCLOPEDIA COMES TODAY
brisk merlin
austere lance
Jesus, Bungie ain't stoppin the "We're gonna fix D2 or die trying" train, are they? 😄
echo hill
any word on destiny 3?
cinder vessel
Hmm, played some more BattleTech without issue just now. Booming mechs is fun
echo hill
damn i gotta get back into d2
cinder vessel
eh
willow crypt
i think i might at the end of the year when there's new content
echo hill
its a great time killer
austere lance
Dauntless got me fucked up, just fought a huge owl monster and the bastard was doing wild shit like tossing tornadoes around
We beat his ass hard enough that he tried to run away but we hunted him down and slapped him silly 😄
rigid haven
There are two owls
Which weapon do you use, Soul?
I happen to be an expert at being an amateur with a warpike
rigid haven
GOOD CHOICE
austere lance
@rigid haven @brisk merlin You poops should add me, lol
brisk merlin
I played it for like 3 days then got bored because it felt too repetitive
rigid haven
If you shoot the shrike as it's flying towards you, it'll go down
brisk merlin
and killing things takes wayyyyyyy too long
rigid haven
And you can tell when the shrike and Skraev(?) are gonna fly because they do a move before it
I forgot what though
austere lance
So uh, I figured out why I haven't (supposedly) seen any PS4 players in Dauntless 😄
JUST PUT A DAMN PS SYMBOL
rigid haven
Huh, weird
austere lance
Can't fight fire monsters without my friggin GWAR outfit 😂😂😂
rigid haven
Say, have you fought a Kharabak yet?
I think that's the name
It's a pain in the ass
austere lance
No, I'm still doing Patrols and whatnot
Oh god, RIP my social life (what little I have, lol) when Cyberpunk comes out
austere lance
Probably
charred badge
I'd say Morrowind-style
Were you around for blood moon?
Now that was a beefy expansion
austere lance
I started with Oblivion
charred badge
I'm sorry
Well, at least you started with the dulcet tones of the true immortal
The Morrowind intro narration... Isn't as good
winter yew
Dunno why, but I'm downloading The Talos Principle again.
Guess as good of a time as any.
never finished Road to Gehenna so might as well I guess. 😄
charred badge
Heh
Gungeon is very good
I'm enjoying moonlighter
Oddly for a roguelite, it lets you retry runs.
Looks like you lose consumables anyway to balance it, but man.

MASTERFUL FLOOF

@austere lance @iron inlet @fluid hare ITS HERE
echo hill
Holy fuck
echo hill
343 Guilty Spark is a composed human known as Chakas. Chakas was the human that lead Bornstellar to find the Didact on Earth.
That's wack
cinder ferry
oh I forget that people dont know that stuff and that im a halo nerd
I was about to be like, you didnt know that?
wait till you read about mendicant bias
echo hill
Yeah dude he was tasked with interrogation of the primordial but then started agreeing with him
And they worked together to fuck up the forerunners
cinder ferry
mendicant led all the events to happen behind the scenes in halo 2 and 3
echo hill
Yeet
cinder ferry
hes the only reason chief got to requiem
cinder ferry
halo 2 was when he got involved with chief
echo hill
Gotcha
cinder ferry
hes always been there
echo hill
I'll keep reading haha
cinder ferry
if you read the terminals in 2 and 3 youll see him mentioned
but if you never look for them like most people youd never know
fluid hare
Look at my profile.
echo hill
Queue?
Wait
Que?*
I wish they would talk more about the precursors
They're so fucking cool
cinder ferry
yeah
fluid hare
I’m playing Reach. The 360 one.
echo hill
There's none left right? As far as we know
Or is the gravemind technically a precursor
fluid hare
Just the Flood.
cinder ferry
well the primordial
echo hill
He ded I thought
fluid hare
Yup.
cinder ferry
not technically
echo hill
Oh?
cinder ferry
the flood cant really ever die because the spores exist
echo hill
Right
echo hill
I thought the primordial was something separate from the flood
cinder ferry
he was
echo hill
I mean I know he controlled the flood
fluid hare
I’m on Long Night of Solace right now.
echo hill
👌👌
cinder ferry
but their a hive mind, they carry on the consciousness they absorb
fluid hare
I’m also looking for some people to play alongside me to up my ranking.
echo hill
So like they started out as their own thing then kinda became the primordial?
That actually makes sense
cinder ferry
It would make sense that before they used the halos that the primordials knowledge and body wouldve been absorbed to retain it
cinder ferry
yee
echo hill
I live for this shit
cinder ferry
Im hoping cortana is being controlled by the flood or working with them like mendicant in infinite
echo hill
Yeah I saw some theories about that
cinder ferry
why would they drop the flood in halo wars 2?
like theyre canonically back
hella faraway but that dont mean much
echo hill
Also saw some theories that the new AI is like a new version of Offensive Bias
cinder ferry
we also dont know where this new halo is
echo hill
Pretty sure it's Zeta
echo hill
Idk where that is tho haha
cinder ferry
theyre the same arent they? or is the lesser what was on earth
echo hill
I'm pretty sure there were two separate arks.
cinder ferry
the one in halo 3 wasnt completely destroyed they repaired it
echo hill
One deployed 33k KM halos and the other made 10k KM halos
And one was destroyed around when the forerunner capital was destroyed (I can't remember how to spell it)
echo hill
Holy fuck
Even the lesser halos we're about as big as earth
And the greater halos being almost 3 times that
In diameter I mean
cinder ferry
yeah the I think the greater one is gone
echo hill
I think so too cause the lesser halos became the standard
cinder ferry
isnt offensive bias guilty spark
cinder ferry
yeah
iron inlet
Offensive Bias is installation 07, no?
cinder ferry
offensive was created to counter mendicant
echo hill
Right
cinder ferry
I think mendicant is on 7
echo hill
Yes
echo hill
Que?
cinder ferry
yeah wot
cinder ferry
031 exuberant witness
iron inlet
Yeh
cinder ferry
I dont think shes particularly important
iron inlet
She's cute tho
echo hill
Ur cute
iron inlet
I have the big gay for Exuberant Witness
cinder ferry
echo hill
:o
cinder ferry
cinder ferry
I might loose friends when that comes out
echo hill
Already got a few preorders in 
cinder ferry
cinder ferry
I just went for cyberpunk
echo hill
Fair enough
cinder ferry
I dont like preordering
echo hill
I'm a sucker for preorder bonuses
cinder ferry
but D a Y u M <_<
echo hill
I know it's bad but still
If it's a game I know I'll end up buying anyway, then I might as well
cinder ferry
I might buy a new pc just to play cyberpunk at max
echo hill
Though you better believe I'll be buying the Infinite collector's edition the day it drops
Do it
Upgrades are fun
cinder ferry
yee
echo hill
What're you running now?
echo hill
Ah not bad
cinder ferry
but cyberpunk would kill it lol
echo hill
If I do it'll be an RTX 2080ti cause I'm finna go all in
cinder ferry
gamer 1st world problems
echo hill
No kidding
cinder ferry
RTX 2080ti sounds like a damn car
echo hill
Yeah fr
I'd prolly try to find a white card tho cause it matches my build
White case, cables, lighting etc
cinder ferry
I have a an all black set up
without lighting
I like it to be dark when im playing
cinder ferry
qtie
damn I need someone to play rust with lol, I got the games before my friends did and im excited to play but i dont want to alone
cinder ferry
lit
echo hill
I'm not any good but have a pretty good idea of what I'm doing most of the time
cinder ferry
lol yeah Im still watching people to learn
echo hill
You watch Welyn?

on Fallout 4:
have the critical bugs been sorted or do you still basically need an unofficial patch just to play the game without it crashing or hitting some stupid progress blocking bug that should have been fixed years ago?
austere lance
It's Bethesda, if Skyrim Special Edition needs the Unofficial Patch than Fallout 4 definitely does 😄
winter yew
I had a weird bug that each time I went inside a structure at my camp, I'd kinda vibrate around the building.
cinder vessel
Bethesda
winter yew
Ohhh
meager panther
cinder vessel
that's how i feel when i go to play more NMS, lol
austere lance
I avoid that by only buying games that are <$20, lol
winter yew
Hahaha, same.
austere lance
Ngl, most of what I play is on Game Pass so I don't have to buy it anyway. Besides Okami HD, but that was $14 and absolutely worth it 😄
cinder vessel
change it to like $25-40 game i bought and same vibe
winter yew
I have to really talk myself into buying games.
cinder vessel
yeah you don't have to buy'em you just have to stay subscribed...for life
austere lance
I doubt I'm gonna play the games I'm interested in on Game Pass til March, lol
Which is when it expires
The only games I might buy at release anytime remotely soon are Vampire the Masquerade 2, Outer Worlds, and Cyberpunk. And 2/3 of those are very much maybes
Actually, if Outer Worlds is on Game Pass at release I won't have to buy it 
winter yew
I pre-ordered Cyberpunk 🤐
austere lance
Boi don't tempt me

The only games library I wanna sub to is my local library 😤

My most played game is Eurotruck Sim 2.
austere lance
I'm gonna do my fourth playthrough after I finish the books

Witcher has Vikings, those don't really count as pirates tho 😄
