Some of the RPGs I've played didn't have difficulty settings. Others I generally start on Normal and move my way into Hard and other modes as I get experience.

Oh so bath scenes are cool when death stranding does it

but that's actually a good point there - the poop scenes in both games are emblematic of their developers
in death stranding they're tied to this complex chain of resources and mechanics that let you craft new weapons that are still inferior to basic strats
in heavy rain... they're just QTEs

Two things, not important, more for the players: 1) if possible, a version of Hermes where Chellen is hidden among other objects in his delivery bag (not unlike Hades 1) would be nice. Noticing him in the artwork and loving him immediately was a whole thing for many of us... 2) Allow Melinoë to sit (let me finish) only on the deer statue in the unlockable crossroads area where Artemis appears to sing with her.

I don't notice the health, whether they decreased or not
all I know is, if the other monster isn't tempered, it'll get wiped within 5 mins or so
that's my experience
but of course the non tempered monster is never gore

ah it's true, multi-monster hunts don't scale health
cuz in prior games it would like, halve the health if it was a double hunt

it's a fun but kinda boring game where you wait a lot to do menial chores around town and nothing really exciting happens or goes wrong 🙂
fathom juniper
exactly 
nah but seriously now
you know what i like about this?
postal 2 is an...
accidental im-sim
dense kindle
wdym accidental lol
pretty sure running with scissors designed most of the imm-sim shenanigans intentionally
fathom juniper
cause it's like...
it doesn't feel like they wanted to make an im-sim
but the general game design is so hands-off they let you do whatever and just let the AI run wild
really?
because for me it feels like there wasn't much thought in this besides making this kinda open world and giving ai basic responses to stuff
level design is kinda cool though
there's hidden stuff everywhere
credit where credit is due
it's impressive how they kept updating this 20 years old trash game
dense kindle
let's see, this would have been 2 years after GTA 3, 3 years after Deus Ex, and 3 years after Thief 2 so that's kinda the landscape they were in
fathom juniper
3 years after deus ex
but im mostly comparing this to postal 1
which is a straight up horror game with janky gameplay
dense kindle
yup lol
fathom juniper
crap so disturbing i don't even want to bring it up here
but yeah - p2 is an imsim - accidental or not
i'm in the "they just did whatever and let the AI run wild" camp
fathom juniper
and - surprisingly - i don't miss those
despite being the main "new thing bad 
" guy here
dense kindle
lol you don't miss every company having pretty ladies show off their new console on stage at E3 for some reason?
fathom juniper
yeah precisely that - i don't miss publishers selling their games purely on sexappeal of hired models that had nothing to do with the game in the first place
this is the thing that ruined my beloved tomb raider for years and the series never really recovered from that
this is one of those things im glad we generally moved past, BUT
i'm also not surprised RWS is still doing that because they just do not give a damn
dense kindle
being crass is just their niche
fathom juniper
yeah
dense kindle
helped them shine more over the decades I think
fathom juniper
also the fact that... despite having piles of offensive stuff in their games - they still have a better moral compass than 99% of AAA
dense kindle
they just make dlc expansions, like they used to
dense kindle
and also licensed their ip out for an oddly fun shooter
fathom juniper
said game now has better accesibility settings than most of the modern games out there
making a big ass expansion pack for a 20 years old game as an apology for a crappy sequel?
that's unheard of
dense kindle
I think it's just more that Postal 2 has continued to sell so they'll just do Postal 2 forever
it's kinda like Payday 2 and Overkill

most of people's complaints seem to revolve around it not being good enough as a live service, I think?
fathom juniper
on paper - i like payday 1 more
i like it's style more, the music, the clean design free of bloat
it's more consistent, so to speak
BUT
p2 made some of my most cherished multiplayer memories
dense kindle
I think most of my heisting in Payday 2 has been matchmaking with randos so I never really developed too much of a connection to it
I've still played a pretty healthy amount of it though
one day the fantasy of "actually planning an awesome heist, fighting off intelligent police, and making a desperate escape" might truly be fulfilled
dense kindle

got into that car, just said "get in" and he was right there
hit the gas, smash through the window, blow up the c4 and just floor it

they really didn't want to sign that petition
this is what i like about p2
the sheer absurdity of it all
p1 was a horror game - a disturbing look into a mind of a deeply unhinged person in a mostly sane world
but p2? p2 does a complete 180 and because of how dumb the AI is it feels like the dude is the last sane person in this completely crazy city
it's like - you're walking down the street and see one NPC getting lost and they walk into a building and another AI pulls a gun on them and they start fighting
then a cop outside hears that and runs inside and it all just snowballs and now the whole block is fighting and there's screaming and explosions and i'm like
i just came here to cash this check, come on guys
doesn't change the fact that it's a trash game

Not so, Platinum has now said in a new post on its blog. The artwork had actually been created to mark the second anniversary of Revengeance's launch, and simply happened to have been chosen by Sony for inclusion in its marketing.
It's not the first time we've heard that the "teaser" wasn't all it seemed, but this is the first time we've heard what the image was all about.
Shortly after the event, Kojima Productions was forced to clarify via its own Twitter that the image had not been a hint at a new game:"

even in the expansion i got captured and lost all my cats again
well - more "arrested" than "captured" but let's not dwell on semantics
this one was scripted anyway

Lost Paradise expansion?

Hey I played Postal like 8 years ago mkay

I didn't knew weekend is even an expansion, I thought it's just a part of original game
fathom juniper
nah it was an expansion
i played the thing once - before p3 was even a thing
and dude - let me tell you
i didn't get it then, but now - there's one sequence in this expansion so absurd
so hilarious
i was genuinely crying laughing 
overall this expansion is kinda meh
but man - that one bit got me so good
it was the ||scrapped pidgeon hunter mission cutscene||

oh crap - i forgot to post the thing
you guys wanna see what i did with the 49 cats i collected in the main campaing?
austere wadi
Sure.

disclaimer: no animals died in the following clip
but one npc lost a leg... to a cat
GO FORTH AND LAY WASTE TO OUR ENEMIES!
fathom juniper
49 cats
i was one short
but then the apocalypse happened out of nowhere and i just wanted to get home
god this game is so stupid
austere wadi
So stupid it sounds like it loops back to incredible.
Have you ever played Mothergunship?
austere wadi
Longer video, but basically on either arm you start attaching barrels and other things that act as your weapons. So you can throw a lightning rod, a laser, and a gatling gun on one arm, then four rocket launchers on the other.
Also ammo/RoF/recoil/etc attachments to mod the guns themselves.
fathom juniper
kinda reminds me of turbo overkill
where you start off with a chainsaw leg which you can use for combat and movement
austere wadi
I once put two gatling barrels on one arm, then attached a hyper RoF increase, and started flying around backwards at mach 9.
fathom juniper
then you get two chainsaw legs
and then you end up having chainsaws for all limbs
austere wadi
Kinda?
fathom juniper
austere wadi
I like to put one or two railguns on a single arm then buff the malarkey out of them specifically.
Just a ton of bullet velocity, RoF, and damage (if there was damage, haven't played it in a minute).
Oh, wait, there's a rail shotgun.
6 barrels, best weapon in the game.
Man, I forgot about my baby.
fathom juniper
you know
this makes me wonder - did we run out of ideas for cool guns in fps games?
austere wadi
No.
fathom juniper
cause i'm seeing more guns that are just two things combined
thing X mixed with thing Y
like serious sam 4 which had a chainsaw rocket launcher
a rocker launcher that fires explosive chainsaws
austere wadi
But MBA executives often ruin good art to chase money, and good ideas from regular coders and artists probably get shoved to the side.
fathom juniper
which is super cool - don't get me wrong
but come on
austere wadi
If it had fired exploding buzzsaws themselves, like the Gravity Gun's really excitable nephew, that could have been a little less absurd-in-a-bad-way.

oh i played mothergunship. didnt know why i shelved it, just wasnt very interesting

That's almost like the Gun Gun from Nuclear Throne, just fires random weapons that can be picked up once they've stopped moving as a projectile.

That's almost like the Gun Gun from Nuclear Throne, just fires random weapons th...
oh dude
this reminds me
have you played Reelism 2?
austere wadi
Nah, that's why you shelved it. It really wants some teamplay to help break the monotony of the environments and enemies.
And I have not.
fathom juniper
get on it
this dumb ass doom mod was my game of the year... whenever it came out
i don't remember now
it's so much fun
austere wadi
I'm sorry, I'm tech illiterate.
Mods completely confound me.
I barely got the Nier Automata DSFix to work correctly.
fathom juniper
it has a russian roulette revolver which fires... whatever it feels like
it can fire a bullet, throw a rock
fire a swarm of bees
or fire an entire car that honks just before it hits a demon
austere wadi
fathom juniper
there's a gun gun
a gun that fires a gun
which then fire more guns
which then fire even more guns
and suddenly there's this like wall of berettas 92 firing at demons and you just pulled the trigger once
there's a gender reveal IED which has a 50% chance of just exploding violently in either blue or pink
there's a basketball which you can slam dunk and if you're not careful with it - it can yeet you off the map
there's dog hell
an endless arena that spawns nothing but hell hounds at you while midi master of puppets plays in the background but in dog bark sound font
and it's called master of puppers
seriously shpoon
try this out

Anyone else here have strong feelings on Nintendo's incredibly anti-consumer practices and is being torn up inside that they're releasing Kirby Air Riders and fleecing them out of $500+ USD?
Just me?

idrc tbh
the switch 2 runs games decently, and isn't too annoying about it
I don't think it's too bad since I think of it like a portable PS4 that runs nintendo games which are pretty decent, but I live in an incredibly privileged position as a west coast united states resident
would I like nintendo exclusives to come to Steam and have to actually compete on pricing? sure, but ngl it kinda seems like AAA studios slink off to Steam when they've given up
Blizzard, Squeenix, Ubisoft, Playstation, Xbox, are all on Steam now which is pretty neat
but most of those I wouldn't really say are in their golden ages anymore tbh
