yea that's what it looks like on a 960p restream of a 1080p youtube stream

I meant more like the gameplay, not the visual fidelity.

Although I guess sorta the visuals as well.

Anybody playing ac6 for the pvp should know that AC stands for A Clown, which is what you are if you care about pvp in an armored core game

Decided that since I'm still not a fan of Blasphemous despite having the combat pretty well down, that I'm moving on from it. Was still in the mood for some metroidvania tho since I want to see if I actually got any better playing through HK, and I've also been on the lookout for Chinese games generally since there seem to be a lot of good ones coming out of there lately, so I picked up Afterimage and so far it rules. Combat is basically instantly engaging and there are a bunch of weapons, plot is pretty standard though I'm told it gets quite vague and incomprehensible, and the world is gorgeous and the maps huge and full of secrets.

Performance on the Switch leaves something to be desired, but none of the issues are present in the combat. It's basically just some stutters when zipping around the world map at high speed, if I had to guess it may be to do with the background parallax. Haven't tried it in docked mode yet.

you can't turn off pvp because its an optional side mode like in other normal single player games

This looks terrible and just like the old Armored core games I didn't like. I will be passing and doubt I will feel fomo with this one.

More $20 DLC?

$25

less DLC per year

Still no QA team, so patches that break races may last 2 years

And a weird out of touch letter from their chief product officer

looks neat, put it on my wishlist

don't sleep on GRIME. it's one of my favorite metroidvania games. it looks like a switch port is coming out soon(tM) but not out yet if that's a dealbreaker

oh, this guy. I subbed to his youtube channel a while ago because beaglerush recommended him as someone really good at elden ring pvp. but I stopped watching him pretty quickly and unsubbed this morning because he's the kind of guy who can only ever kvetch about how X is RUINED FOREVER and what were they THINKING and look at this NOOB PLAYER and all that tedious poo poo. idk, maybe the game's an awful insult to armored core, I never played any of them so I wouldn't know, but the endless whining is so goddamn boring.

I've got my eye on it, one of the things I like about the genre is how perfect it is for the Switch so I'm holding out for the port while I've got backlog to attend to. If it never ends up getting ported I'll end up playing it on PC tho, it does look cool i just dont PC game much anymore compared to console

In theory I should embrace both worlds and get a Deck but even ignoring the price it's just too drat big

There is, you basically boost right into them and it does a ton of stagger damage

I’m sorry if you’re tired of hearing that the combat in Bethesda games is dogshit but maybe you’ll hear less of that if they fix a single thing about their crappy combat or make a game where the crappy combat isn’t 98% of the content

combat in fallout 4 was pretty good actually. Story was dogshit but everything else was cool. You should probably post in the games subforum.
