I think the patch we were on broke the button mashing so it was near-impossible or something

spring cairn
#

especially the gunner and their increased FOV mask

opaque coyote
#

Like there's only the Civil Protection who are essentially just beginner mooks.

The Combine soldier.

The Combine shotgunner.

And the Elite.

Half Life Alyx has way better enemy design. Although it's partially because... VR. It's also due to there being more variety.

spring cairn

which is inspired by prey animals

#

fun fact

that one animation was peak

it's good but it's bog standard

Yeah if they kept the cut baton it would've been more unique.

But it would've also been hard to actually have it be used in a VR game.

Maybe HL3, if it EVER releases, would have them use the Baton.

#

I just like how the HL Alyx combine Soldiers are more specialized in general

vagrant fox
opaque coyote
#

The Combine soldiers in HL2 were fine. But after a while, they got boring because they pretty much just

#

Had zero variation

storm jungle
#

tbh

#

its a game from 2001

#

so like lol

spring cairn
#

let the goat rest

opaque coyote
spring cairn
#

HLX soon

heady rivet
#

HL3 better have a sequence where Gordon Freeman comes to my house and sucks me off in real life after a wait this long

opaque coyote
#

Have more enemy variety with unique tactics based on their specialities

opaque coyote
#

So he's likely busy with that

vagrant fox
spring cairn
#

i'd hire that guy

#

instantly

opaque coyote
opaque coyote
#

And that's the lore reason why the specialized soldiers in Half Life Alyx are gone

heady rivet
#

HL3 is gonna come out and be only available on the game sphere and you die in real life when the Combine shoot you

opaque coyote
#

Also why they're much more human in Alyx. Although I like how the Ordinator explicitly has zero emotions even compared to the rest. With the Grunt having the least modified voice and still with visible emotions.

I still think the wildest part while playing it for a bit at a friend's house was like...

The Combine grunt whispering out an apology to Alyx.

#

When they die

#

Which was just kinda fucked up. Even with constant memory erasure, they still build up enough guilt.

#

In some ways, I wonder why would somebody volunteer to become promoted? Since they do mention promotion as a reward.

#

Or do the Combine just choose random Civil Protection to become soldiers?

#

I do not see a remaster coming

languid meadow
#

I know what the countdown is related to

#

but 3 remaster was leaked over a year ago with the obliv one

hallow saddle
#

its 100% show related right?

#

cause its an amazon thing & nothing to do with bethesda

spring cairn
#

the ep is on thursday tho

#

Fallout 4 never had GOOD balancing.

But the next Gen update with it's content kinda sucks

#

Why is the Enclave here?

#

Also getting Enclave PA and Plasma weapons at like level 10 clearly isn't game breaking in any way, shape, or form!

#

The miniscule semblance of ""balance"" that Fo4 had basically got shattered

#

And the worst part is that downgrading is a hassle

#

And unable to be done on consoles

#

So if you're on console, good luck having half of your mods broken

winged jacinth
#

fo4 locking crafting behind level gates way higher than the guns you can craft are useful at lmao

opaque coyote
#

I am worried over an inhouse made remaster because of this

#

Because most remasters are complained about for being mid or being glorified bug fixes

#

I'm fucking worried that Bethesda will add new bugs to Fo3

#

And make optimization even worse

#

Because Fallout 3 and NV wasn't exactly friendly to lower end hardware on their release.

And the PS3

#

The PS3 basically got the short end of the stick for Bethesda games in general

languid meadow
#

Bethesda doesn't do the remakes/remasters

opaque coyote
#

||MR.HOUSE???||

#

Hopefully this isn't the case though

#

Although the Oblivion remaster is also kinda bad

#

Same engine just with UE5 overlayed

#

But at least it looks good

#

Minus the classic UE5 motion blur. Always turn that shit off

#

Why do people think motion blur looks good

#

Just fucking erase it

opaque coyote

Oh

Is she better now

arctic talon
#

she just didn't get executed

#

idk she's got new voicelines

sacred ginkgo
#

Is she more or less brainwashed

vagrant fox
#

There's some lines about being strapped into chairs and staring at powerpoint or something projections for hours

#

she's fine

sacred ginkgo
#

Only character I care about in the entire game

#

Our silly little technician

arctic talon

mostly

she was pretty brainwashed already

not much they can clockwork orange into her lol

rose thorn

Well the blacksmith side of them at least

opaque coyote
#

Honestly I wouldn't put past Super Earth that the PowerPoints actually are some like

UltraMK type shit

Where there's subliminal messages that you unconsciously read without really reading them.

#

And it gets burned into your head as a result. Unable to be forgotten

vagrant fox

I should play Outlast you're right

opaque coyote

I haven't played outlast

Is that an actual plot point

It’s weaker then HD1 bcs this game is 3d rather then top down

jade holly

Y’know, there’s a Salamander or IW type of leader model I wanna see someday but idk how lore accurate it’d be

the fact that the only thing bringing this tank down is you having a proper crew is ironically extremely balanced lol

jade holly
hollow lantern
#

Yeah I absolutely would not use the tank with your average HD2 random tbh

vagrant fox
#

There's no chance my friendgroup can figure out how to crew one of those tanks competently

jade holly

But idk if that sorta tech is in 40K

Tech wise, there are weapons tbst use extreme temperatures, but they're for thr most part still physical, just imbued (Sollex Power Sword being an exception)

Do Necron guns even use ammo

Not really

Yeah so I'm thinking the reason why they're so heavy is because they have what's basically

A generator shoved into it

So basically imagine carrying a rifle attached a electric generator

And you have to carry both

once again

#

When the grand armies of the Astra Militarum open fire, it is apocalyptic. Lasguns in their thousands fill the air with searing fury and crew-served heavy weapons spit streams of bolts, tank-busting salvoes of missiles and whistling mortar rounds. Plasma blasts and thermal detonations gouge craters in the opposition's lines, while rockets and shells the size of tanks scream down on the foe, their explosions hurling spumes of bedrock and broken bodies high into the air. Relentless and merciless, the bombardment annihilates even the most resilient of rivals. Enemy assaults are blunted by counterstriking armoured spearheads, or overwhelmed by the expedient of hurling Imperial Guardsmen into the meat grinder. It is a horrific way to make war, an impersonal slaughter that explains why most Astra Militarum soldiers do not expect to live out their first fifteen hours in combat. Yet, it has won countless wars for the lmperium over the millennia, and if Humanity has one strength above all others, it is a near limitless pool of fresh recruits to feed its rapacious war machine.

#

Casualty rates amongst the Imperial Guard are beyond horrific; if a freshly recruited soldier survives more than their first fifteen hours in battle, they are considered an accomplished veteran.

That’s weird

My OC were a league of assassin warlords who would attack planets based on visions of a prophet in order to try and affect a future only the prophet knew (so they’d hit a planet to kill one person who’d become a revolutionary member of the Eccelsiarchy and rally a different planets defences 40 years from now, or an adept who’d find a tithe being skimmed that would lead to a cult being wiped out)

I went really heavy into how Astartes would each when all of the rules were removed, and how some factions would ritualistically treat cannibalism, whilst others would treat it like a KFC

No sex slaves though, that’d be weird
