in fo4 they also go out of their way to frame that character as the only complex person in the entire game and then your options are to kill him madly or sadly

I agree that the branching paths and numerous side threads are what make New Vegas better than FO3 and 4. Given this it sometimes falls to pieces (in particular "I Put a Spell on You" is the most broken quest I've ever seen in any Fallout game, it's a trainwreck) but I was impressed whenever it kept itself together. I also like the DLC, except for Lonesome Road which I found stilted and self-satisfied, as well as boring to play. EDIT: jesus WEP posted:yeah lol It's after, you have to take his brain module out of his head after killing him, then give it to the android detective so you can live through his memories at the Philip K. Dick dream suite or whatever. Then there's a weird bit at the end where the android speaks in the guy's voice and it implies that his personality might be corrupted or something, but it never comes up again. I really can't believe I spent as many hours as I did playing Fallout 4. Hedgehog Pie fucked around with this message at 17:52 on Dec 11, 2020 |

I think the FO3 vs NV question is a more interesting one than the internet gives it but I think the general consensus of NV being better isn't wrong, and I base this in some part on which one lets a man in a dinosaur kill people if he doesn't like their hat.

I liked New Vegas but I am a console peasant and that game is borderline unplayable vanilla. I have tried on three seperate occasions and each time I encountered a new game-breaking bug that made me stop, cuz either a follower I liked got permanently stuck somewhere or I could not resolve a questline the way I intended to due to some issue

Spiderdrake posted:I modded it like crazy so it was the best of 'em but I'll say all the beth stuff is way way overrated. Inquisition is my favorite Bioware game easily. Great party and great relations and a great story and ending. Cyberpunk update - I just found a smart gun that started sassing me. I kept questioning its answers so it thought I was deaf and kept increasing its volume and then it said oh wait you're just dumb and started talking slower to me. It was great. I'm really enjoying this game. 2ND Cyberpunk update - I just won a deathrace that was set up after I met a Trans bartender who then rode shotgun in our tricked out SUV with a transflag bumper sticker on the back while she shot out the window with a machine gun.

My Cyberpunk update: it keeps crashing and I don’t think the textures have completely loaded once in the game. I’m bummed. Glad other people are having success with it.

It's...remarkedly well done. The modding community is the only reason to get a lot of mileage from Fallout 4.

I saw that it patched and came back to try it again and it crashed ninety seconds into character creation and the entire reaction I'm seeing online is comprised of people who previously weren't having crashes and now are, so, uh

between so many people having game-breaking problems and the game only being 'great' in small chunks spread apart it's definitely going to be considered a step back from witcher 3 even after all the free dlc and expansion(s) come out. it should outsell witcher 3 though which is nyuts. nuts. don't care

i sort of have the same experience, Mr. Cobi. but a lot of the side content is fallout 4-like. i wanted to be able to have a small meaningless conversation with many npcs, maybe with a lot of them being in factions. but there aren't any of those unless the person is part of the main story or a vendor. fallout 4 had a lot of interesting little places where you wish you could look around and talk to people but everyone in there was hostile and the place didn't mean anything and i thought devs knew that sucked and no one wanted it. but maybe i'm the only one. i'm the fucker

Cyberpunk plays like a Bethesda game from a decade ago AI wise and it’s just shooting battle to shooting battle with no real side content, just side quests to more shooting battles. There’s not a lot to see and do that means anything just areas to move through to shoot more guys and be shot at by more guys, or take them down in all the same way Deus Ex allowed you to in 1998 with no real advancement there. I think CDPR just might be comprised of really unimaginative people.

All the "Witcher 3 is like Skyrim but better!" takes baffled me at the time because as someone who played the hell out of both games, they seemed like such incredibly different things. Bethsoft tries to make fantasy immersion simulators that begrudingly have stories in them and CDPR tries to make fantasy novels that begrudgingly take place in open worlds. Witcher 3 had this giant open world, but there wasn't really anything to do with it aside from enjoy the pretty good story that happened to take place there. It makes sense to me that CDPR trying to be Bethsoft without really understanding what makes Bethsoft work is apparently just muting their own creative strengths. Like, it's kind of a goofy complaint on the surface, but legitimately, the fact that they made a make-your-own-protagonist open-world RPG in a setting ostensibly about cyberpunk tropes and body modification where you can never actually change your own appearance once the game starts is indicative to me that they didn't really think through what inhabiting a game world means, and what a world has to be to feel like it can BE inhabited.

Cyberpunk is generally an awful genre (though I've read the sprawl and bridge trilogies and loved them, so Iunno, I can think of lots of great stuff in cyberpunk but little that uses it well) so I was never all that inclined anyway

I think it's wonderful. I can't wait to upgrade my rig with a 3090 or whatever it is and really see what this can do. Plus I know CD Projeckt will keep patching away at this until everyone can enjoy it. It's my favorite game of the year for sure - it scratches my particular itch. This is also how I felt when everyone said Mass Effect 3 sucked and I really enjoyed it back in the day.

I’m just playing it with my brother on his super rig and it’s just so mediocre to me and the pseudo intellectual writing is just kind of grating, also the constant sexualization of everything from a male gaze perspective is just silly to me. It’s not a bad game to me, it’s like as good as that Homefront game from a few years ago game play wise, but I can’t see it being anyone’s game of the year when Hades, Outer Wilds, Tshushima, Last of Us, Disco Elysium, etc dropped this year.

I enjoy the aesthetic, I like the voice actor for the feminine voice for the character, I liked all the details of the character creator, I enjoyed that I was able to make a trans character, I love Keanu Reeves in the case, I enjoy the gameplay loop and stuff is so densely packed that I can easily pop between side missions and main missions. I haven't had any bugs so I can't honestly say there is anything in it that I don't like. Also all the humor has hit for me especially the sassy smart gun.

I'm going to go the opposite direction of Shard and form a strong opinion on the game without having played it. That poo poo loving sucks! Hard to imagine what they were thinking when they made those side quests and to be honest, the guns? Not my thing. Anyways, hope they fix this pile of dog poo poo before too long.

I don't plan to have a system that can play Cyberpunk in decent quality for a while, and it'll have to be pretty good when I eventually do play it to overcome the "literally has a bit modeled on a device intended to cause seizures that's story-required and at no point thought to modify it so it didn't risk killing members of the audience" aspect.

In Fallout New Vegas the writing was really good. In Fallout 3/4 it was really bad. Like the whole synth thing in 4 was just so dumb, shoehorned, and poorly done.
