I have it on my vita 😄 as a downloadable psp title...
just feels strange to play without the use of both analog sticks
the R&C Collection on vita runs at 30fps most of the time, and you have to use the touchpad on the back to strafe in the games that have strafing but they are pretty solid.

Now does that mean i can play DOOM relatively okay, since i mained Paladin in Diablo 3?
i sure hope so.

instead of new ratchet and clank there should be more ratchet & clank-likes
crisp sparrow
I don’t have a problem with ratchet & clank-likes, but don’t you guys think that ratchet and clank existing is kinda forced diversity? Like it’s just not historically accurate and not realistic for them to actually exist imo. I just wish games weren’t so political just because developers want to pander to the sjws.
also what's ratchet and clank

i don't have a problem with existence-likes, but don't you think existence existing is kinda forced diversity? Like it's just not historically accurate and not realistic for it to actually exist imo. I just wish games weren't so political just because developers want to pander to the sjws.

Oh you know what that is?
I got an email about it a bit ago but I dont remember signing up to anything
austere lance
It's cool af, been following it since the E3 reveal
It's a weird FPS/RTS hybrid where humanity decided to stick their brains in robot bodies to live longer, you're part of an outlaw group that wants to become human again. Romer (the main character) is trained as a hoverbike pilot, which is where the FPS/RTS part kicks in. You gotta fly around on your bike shooting shit and ordering your ground team around like Xcom (except in real-time) @rigid haven
rigid haven
Cool
I was lying about getting in but I'm glad you shared the basis with me because I honestly had no idea what it was about

Btw @tame coral I picked up DE and have played a little
tame coral
Ooo
what'd you think
It's hard to get into
But once you figure everything out
It's amazing
bronze wind
I was into it pretty quick. The dialogue is unique.
My only gripe is I hate point and click, but is there a shortcut for running?
I double click rn but if there's an auto run I'd prefer that
tame coral
unfortunately no
I also with there was something for auto running buut
idk
there isn't
bronze wind
Yeah not a huge deal
Only matters when it's a big open space, which so far is really a couple spots
tame coral
What role did you pick
bronze wind
Took me a sec to figure out how the checks worked but makes sense now
And I did custom but leaned a bit towards intelligence
tame coral
Also just wait a while, you'll have an entire closet in your backpack
tame coral
Did you find his shoe
bronze wind
I did yea
I'm not super far I don't think
I've spoken to everyone except the protestors, haven't gone in that direction much
tame coral
oh btw just a heads up, when you get to your buddy's car don't touch the steering wheel
You die because of loss of morale
tame coral
oh okay
bronze wind
Weird cause I don't remember having any other options
tame coral
I touched the steering wheel and the lever thing and he just died because "-1 morale"
bronze wind
Oh you might have just had low morale already
tame coral
I did I believe
bronze wind
I have like 4 total
tame coral
I tried hitting on the hotel lady
bronze wind
Oof
tame coral
and I think I lost morale because of that
bronze wind
I gained morale by encouraging a mailbox
tame coral
Oh my spoilers || That girl you meet when you first wake up is a mastermind||
bronze wind
Why would you tell me that lol
bronze wind
I don't know anyone
tame coral
lmao
bronze wind
Like everyone is kinda like hinting at knowing me more or less, minus a few
tame coral
btw do the side quests as well
Don't just stick to the main quest
it's a tip
because the side quests will really impact your main quest
bronze wind
I've picked up a lot, I typically do side stuff before main in games
Seems important in this so I can build up skills and find useful info
tame coral
Did you talk to the library girl?
bronze wind
I've spoken to both her and her mom yes
tame coral
nice nice
bronze wind
Gone through the curtain
bronze wind
Didn't pass the chimney check but gonna try again
I'm gonna stop talking about this lol
I'll wait until I've played more
bronze wind
Cause you ask questions with spoilers in the question
bronze wind
Nah it's cool
Normally I wouldn't mind but I'm actually kinda invested so I wanna keep it all secret

Freaking Death Stranding....that's some heavy shit.
willow crypt
I can't believe I put 100 hours into a 50 hour game
reef storm
Why's that so hard to believe?
austere lance
I approve of the Disintegration devs saying this
willow crypt
Personally, I usually start getting tired of the formula of a game over 30 hours. Like even with Outer Worlds, which i still loved, it started getting repetitive. But I had a constant urge to keep exploring in DS. Kojima knows what he's doing.
reef storm
Thanks Soul, was about to ask which game.
I get that, Zug. Outer Worlds did get repetitive. Yet, I enjoyed searching ever nook and cranny for things. I think that's why Elite held me for as long as it did and how I think Star Citizen (don't @ me) will hold me. The exploration aspect.
willow crypt
Same
Haven't played Elite or SC
I ain't one of the ones who think it's a scam though
reef storm
Neither do I
full pivot
that is the point of a beta tbh
reef storm
I'm enjoying SC for that right now. A buddy and I spent 2 hours searching for a single cave today.
reef storm
Beyond vast. And the whole system isn't even in yet. 3.9 is hopefully releasing 3 new moons around one of the planets.
So more searching
willow crypt
Cool. Even though I don't have the ability to play it, I like to keep up with it and see what they do cuz everytime they do add an update it's pretty substantial
Voice to text
And I have a feeling, once they do add fauna/aliens, they'll be pretty awesome
reef storm
Oh absolutely. I would love for them to make an optimization pass at the current state it's in, but I know that won't happen.
willow crypt
Huh. That sucks
willow crypt
Probably down the line once they're wrapping up on content, they'll improve optimization

this stupid panic shit is getting old now tbh
austere lance
I can't believe so many people are downloading the damn game cuz of a virus 
willow crypt
Bleh.
reef storm
I mean, the whole panic thing is getting a bit old. SARS (2003, I think?) was similar. Not the virus, but the panic, and we're still around. 17 years of advancements in medicine as well. This'll eventually pass as the others did and society will be more aware and prepped.
full pivot
it just shows how we've fallen as a people that we look for solace in mobile games

I'm not saying don't worry about it either, because it IS something to worry about for sure.

I swear getting the Phantom and/or Pelican in New Alexandria used to be so hard, or maybe I was just an idiot.

i play nms so....
i wish someone would literally come out with a game called Walking Simulator

In terms of gameplay with no spoilers, you take stuff from point a to point b and manage inventory.
It’s pretty to look at though. 
tame coral
I want to play DS
idle saffron
It isn't
tame coral
It looks fun
brisk merlin
how do you destiny x halo when destiny is like,,, half halo
raven frost
@iron inlet looking at gameplay it is very much not like that
brisk merlin
from what ive seen of it
it looks nothing like them
but all i saw was a guy in a floating chair with guns?
didnt look anything special to me
brisk merlin
lmao what
raven frost
it looks a lot like a mix of a strategy game and forsaken
austere lance
It's nothing like Destiny, lol. It's an FPS/RTS
raven frost
forsaken being the hoverbike game, not the expansion
it looks fun but I probably won't buy it
austere lance
The only relation to Titanfall is that you........have big guns? You're a robot with a human brain flying a hoverbike. You have a squad of ground troops that you order around too. So you fly around in first-person shooting things and telling your squad what to do in an Xcom-ish way
@tame coral Not remotely like Titanfall
austere lance
@iron inlet Not like Halo either, lol
austere lance
Open tech test is on Friday
tame coral
ah alright
austere lance
Can try it for yourself!
tame coral
Will do
austere lance
Tech test is just pvp, the full game has a campaign
I've seen a lot of people saying it'll be big in the esports scene cuz of the mix of FPS and RTS. Gotta kill other players and their ground teams while defending yours and ordering them to do objectives. And there's a few different pilots to choose from with different teams, bike loadouts, and I think abilities. Definitely gonna be interesting
iron inlet
I broke the timer lmao
brisk merlin
i'll remove halo and destiny and... replace that with xcom titanfall

@idle saffron There's a reason reviews say this game stands alongside Hellblade, I think you'd like it

Hmm. Maybe i'll stream that one later
austere lance
Do it, it gets wild! I'd say what chapter I'm on but that would spoil things, lol
tame coral
I wanted to play the game but I ended up spoiling the entire story by watching gameplay on the interwebs
I was really intrigued by Joe's stream
I had to check it out
It's great
willow crypt
OH CRAP
we're going to the USA in the next Metro Exodus Expansion
why that link so long
tame coral

Metro 2033 gave me a headache
That one mission underground that you had to turn on computers
and honestly
Metro gives me anxiety
It's so hard but so good
winter yew
I haven't even tried Last Light yet cause 2033 pissed me off so much.
tame coral
I honestly love it but ugh it's scary as hell
willow crypt
it is.
i don't like horror games, but Metro and a few others that combine horror with other genres are exceptions
tame coral
I didn't think Metro was a horror game when first going into it
I expected a dumb DOOM like shooter
but hell no
willow crypt
hehe
winter yew
I'm in a library IIRC and keep dying.
willow crypt
huh. not enough ammo?
tame coral
You know what I hate? Those flying guys
willow crypt
maybe you can just run through and try to survive
tame coral
They scare the onions out of me everytime
willow crypt
oh yeah they're annoying
tame coral
I never finished the game tbh I got stuck at the computers part
I kept dying
and I never figured out what to do
willow crypt
honestly looking up the solution doesn't hurt every once in a while
winter yew
Abloane actually did help me pass one part I was stuck at for a while.
Corrupted station, have to blow up the tunnels but the hoarde was endless and I was trying to take them all out and running out of ammo.
willow crypt
oh yeah, when there's hoards, i think that's a good sign you're not supposed to fight back
can't remember much though
winter yew
Dude it was such a dumb mission, it didn't explain anything.
Here's ammo, there's monsters = Assume to shoot.
tame coral
Right??
willow crypt
what was the solution
winter yew
Ignore them.
winter yew
Lmao
willow crypt
just gotta do that
winter yew
Accurate.
willow crypt
sept faster
winter yew
I might actually go back to it this weekend and suffer through it so I can start Last Light.
willow crypt
oh yeah. Please beat them so you can experience Exodus
I feel some of the open world sections are reminiscent of Fallout
winter yew
Tis my intention tbh because Exodus releases on 14th February and I really do want to play it.
willow crypt
oh PC right?
winter yew
Yes Sir.
willow crypt
woowoo
winter yew
Steam is +12 months behind.
willow crypt
oh right I completely forgot about that situation
winter yew
I don't mind it tbh, my backlog is ridiculous cause I have no self control buying games.
Decent excuse to actually play games I already own, lik in this instance with Metro, sit through the series so I know what's going on.
They've been sitting in my library for so long.
willow crypt
ha yep. sometimes it's a good feeling, making yourself beat a game before buying another

Alright, out of time for today but I've gotten 7/12 of the Reach missions done under 15 minutes, happy days

@idle saffron You need this game if fucked up story-driven games like Senua interest you, Jesus fuck that was an adventure and a half

It's on sale on Steam rn for $20

austere lance
That too, lol
reef storm
Yeah, definitely give it a go, dude
idle saffron
To me, it seems like the smaller studios are trying harder to put complete games out then a lot of the AAA devs
reef storm
Because the smaller studios have more to lose, imo
idle saffron
3/4 of them seem to ship out needing a day one patch, and then multiple afterwards
austere lance
The quality of it in general is bonkers. The graphics, the optimization (it runs damn good on my crappy One S), the voice acting, and the rat AI is nuts. And the music is 😩
idle saffron
Oh, you sold me on it - I started the download and will play tomorrow
reef storm
Music and voice acting for me is what did it. Story is amazing (as far as I've gotten)
idle saffron
Story driven games are far and away my favorite types of games
austere lance
Ohshit, Disintegration tech test downloaded. I can only do the tutorial cuz multiplayer servers go up tomorrow but I'm hella trying this 😆
Well that was certainly interesting. I don't think I've ever played anything like that before!
idle saffron
Cool!
austere lance
Also, I can 100% see it hitting Esports no problem. Interesting crews and pilots plus first-person shooting, giving ground squad commands, and attacking/defending objectives all together makes it a helluva thrill
I told the devs in the Discord that the in-game text is way too small and they said they're already working on fixing it 😆
idle saffron

anyone get into Journey to the Savage Planet yet? I've heard good things

cinder vessel
But Nova Blast had something in the back of my head telling me there was a little more going on graphically
austere lance
I don't even have siblings irl and the little brother in the game hit my protective instinct hard, I can't imagine how it feels to play if you do have em. Or kids 😱
reef storm
TBH, it didn't with me, at least so far, but I understand the feeling
cinder vessel
btw Joe or Gleam, was the game audio coming through?
reef storm
It was not
idle saffron
Nor for me
cinder vessel
idle saffron
I heard you clear your throat
cinder vessel
That wasn't me

That was Acey

It's weird, audio isn't coming through in preview either, but it is capturing in recordings...Will have to look into that
idle saffron
I believe in you
austere lance
Fuck it, I'm gonna start a second playthrough tomorrow. See how the story changes for me now that I know things 👀
cinder vessel
I'm half-thinking I may literally have to set up a mic and capture from the tv speakers to capture the audio for any sort of streams, lmao
Huh, no, it's just OBS...Weird.
austere lance
Tfw you realize they got an actual five year old kid to voice the one in the game
cinder vessel
Nvm i'm a dumbdumb
wait. does this mean that brief Grabbed By The Ghoulies stream I did awhile ago wasn't outputting audio either?
Spirit why u no tell 👀
austere lance
Grabbed By The Ghoulies 🤣
austere lance
Man, I played that again on Rare Replay last year and it's soooooo bad but also stupidly entertaining
cinder vessel
yeah i realized as i was testing streaming the old version that that was kinda silly, considering you can easily stream HD version
but it was closer to top of stack so 🤷♀️
I don't care what anyone says, Grabbed By The Ghoulies is a good, silly game

Been playing Red Rescue Team and getting my ass whipped 😩
Ngl I thought it'd be harder to play GBA stuff on my phone, all I had to do was download an emulator from the Google Play store and find a good ROM site 👌

I had Blue Rescue Team. It was a fun game
I have never gotten past the Rayquaza dungeon though

try Mother 3 as well!
austere lance
There's an English version of Mother 3 on the site 👀
lavish obsidian
a sequel to a quirky SNES rpg (earthbound) that retains a lot of the quirkiness but has a killer soundtrack with a deeper story
wet warren
Do you know where I can play the English version?
austere lance
Can download a ROM for it from a website I use
You'll need an emulator

so, are there any games out that any of ya know of that are just like, chill out, collect outfits, take shots to earn cash to collect better outfits/take shots in different locations & keep that loop going?
lavish obsidian
outfits? err.. mario odyssey perhaps?
cinder vessel
you see a lot of folks doing that sorta thing across games, typically MMOs/online games, you'd think there'd be games out there that are just that loop
that's definitely...one kinda possibility
lavish obsidian
also animal crossing doesn't really go to different locations but it does have clothing collection as a large factor
cinder vessel
for sure, and i do like it, but besides location part, it also doesn't really have much of a photo mode to it

My most anticipated game is a little indie game called Cloudpunk.

it would be so easy to make a good BR game now
willow crypt
I don't know
Because there are so many, youd need to innovate to get peoples' attention

Mhm
everyone has pulled off at least some genre of BR
I think a solar system wide BR needs to happen

Lol, I found out A Plague Tale had a pre-order bonus that came with 3 different-colored outfits with their own coat of arms. Then they sold the pre-order bonus for $1 later. Which I totally didn't get for my second playthrough 😆
Ngl I think A Plague Tale is my favorite story-driven game of the decade. Or ever actually, I don't usually play story-driven games xD

Hopefully Watch Dogs Legion will trigger a wave of games based in London.

Ah ok, my bad.

I didn't know there was this much gameplay for Legion out

If the game doesn't actually play like that on release Ubi is gonna have a bad time, lol

Is why it got delayed for more than a year.
Breakpoint really shook them up. Which is great tbh, it was looking amazing already so that means it'll be doubly amazing.

The combat looks damn good, ngl

London doesn't have guns, zombies win ez 😬
austere lance
About London not having guns?
idle saffron
Yeah
Most citizens do not have weapons and they have stiff penalties. The police and various military branches have access to firearms though
Plus, I don't think shotguns or rifles are regulated like handguns are, but I don't know that one for sure
austere lance
Well yeah, figured that was a given. Not very many for a zombie apocalypse tho
idle saffron
Maybe a survival one
visual snow
I guess hunting firearms are easier to get
idle saffron
Not like state of decay, but in that direction
More emphasis on silence - so melee, but you can find guns

Brock is the saddest excuse for a gym leader I've ever seen, fought him in Fire Red last night and he only had two pokemon and they were both below 15
Who tf chooses who gets to be a gym leader

oh yeah. for anyone wondering about Yoko Taro -> he requested the porn of his games
not just 2B (from NieR: Automata), but also Kanye (from NieR)
There's a reason that some people go around saying "Yoko Taro is a national treasure and must be protected"

stark palm
just finished Jedi Fallen Order. what was there was very good but it was far too short. needed to be 5 times as many worlds and should have had more control over who you are.
game should have been about the war between the Empire and Rebellion on a bunch of different worlds and you have to choose which to back. the storyline was good but it should have been a thread running through the game, not the ONLY thing in the game.
idle saffron
I liked it, I agree it should have been longer - but it is their first go
cinder vessel
also given they already had quality issues with what was there, i imagine trying to go bigger would have only made things rougher
stark palm
i feel like i've gotten all the enjoyment out of it that i'm going to and it lasted 30 hours. pretty disappointed by that.
cinder vessel
wow
austere lance
If you'd told me 15 years ago that people would think 30 hours for a game is too short I woulda said you're nuts, lol. Yet here we are 😩
idle saffron
Shouldn't be, that is a better value than just about any other entertainment medium
cinder vessel
exactly
austere lance
Meanwhile, I'm replaying an 11 hour game cuz of how much I love the characters 😆
stark palm
compare that with the 400+ that i've gotten from Fallout IV, 1300+ from No Man's Sky, 1600+ Space Engineers, and the fact i feel like i am still going to get further enjoyment out of those... yeah 30 hours is pretty disappointing
cinder vessel
if it had been like 30 minutes, okay, I get being disappointed, but hours? nah
those are all open world or sandbox games
cinder vessel
mmhmm
austere lance
I like Metroidvania games that aren't a big empty open world
stark palm
to me it's question of value. i play games to get enjoyment. the more enjoyment i get per dollar the better. Jedi Fallen Order fell short in that regard. what's there is very good, there's just not much there.
cinder vessel
if every game was asking for several hundred hours people would only probably play a game a year, lol
austere lance
30 hours is plenty, lol. Definitely more than "not much". This is just a you thing
30 hours is damn impressive for a non sandbox or open world game
cinder vessel
hell i played Control, Left Alive, & Death Stranding this year and only finished one of the three because they're all asking for double digits hours of playtime, if not more
austere lance
I think you'd like A Plague Tale btw @cinder vessel
That's the 11 hour game I was talking about
Gameplay is solid, the characters are 💕, and the story is 😱
cinder vessel
Control is roughly a 30 hour game for just the story and it's excellent, one of the best qualities of entertainment out of a game I played last year
I'll take quality of entertainment over quantity any day
Which is why Frog Detective is also great, even just being maybe a couple hours at most
@austere lance also yeah, I've been meaning to wishlist it
stark palm
guess it's just a matter of differing perspective
cinder vessel
pretty much, i know you & i have had this sort of back & forth before
austere lance
It's $18 on Steam rn 👀
stark palm
i definitely think Jedi is something people should play, just not sure i'd recommend paying as much for it as for something like NMS
cinder vessel
it's so easy for games to just pad out playtime with bullshit that i don't trust games trying to sell themselves on hundreds of hours of playtime
stark palm
not just playtime, no. it has to be enjoyable
austere lance
$18 on Steam and it's on Game Pass
Now I just gotta get @reef storm to finish it 😆
reef storm
Lol. Maybe tomorrow
idle saffron
stark palm
with the massive construction underway on Ilum, i feel like they could have easily done with it what they did with Zeffo. there could have been so much more to do there
cinder vessel
that's a nice doggo @idle saffron
idle saffron
Ty, but Senua had to put him down
stark palm
imagine getting to adventure around in the early stages of Starkiller Base. revisit some of the locations from the movies in less finished form.
you get to see one glimpse of the massive construction underway, and then that's it.
bronze wind
I think it did a good job focusing on its own story rather than relying on references to already told stories.
stark palm
it was a missed opportunity though. why bother making Ilum one of the planets you visit in the game and then not have you adventuring inside starkiller base.
bronze wind
To tell their own story
stark palm
it would be like setting Fallout in New York city but you don't get to go to Manhattan.
bronze wind
I think that's an exaggeration. But in the end something like that doesn't detract from the game for me personally
It was fun and had plenty of content, especially given the little amount of time I have to spend on games lately
stark palm
no, the game was good. just puzzling why they didn't do it
bronze wind
Combat was very smooth
stark palm
maybe that will be a DLC
combat was good, would have been nice to be able to pick up a blaster though
it kind of pissed me off when Cere gets to use one
bronze wind
Eh I dontplay a Jedi game to use a blaster
Focusing on saber and force is better imo
stark palm
except they have almost no range
bronze wind
Yeah and you can deflect lol
austere lance
Ilum doesn't have to involve Starkiller Base, it's literally the home of Kyber crystals. Of course Cal had to go there to rebuild. Cere gave up being a Jedi for years, it makes sense she messed with blasters during that time. Cal's life consisted of being a Padawan then hiding on a scrap yard planet, when would he have picked up blaster training
bronze wind
You don't need range to play the game
stark palm
the game presents a LOT of situations in which they are across a canyon and the only thing you can do is wait for them to shoot so you can deflect it back
bronze wind
Deflecting is fun so I'm ok with it
idle saffron
Force pull
bronze wind
And most of the time you can just autodeflect and approach
Or that yeah
Or throw lightsaber when you unlock that
austere lance
Or move towards them and Pull em towards you. Or yeet em with Push
Yeah, and the lightsaber throw
stark palm
force pull and saber throw are very short range
idle saffron
