arche age is the game that will likely kill Trion after Defiance bombed and Rift vanished from the radar

it was originally a gigantic SWG sperg-tier Korean sandbox but the Koreans didn't like that since it wasn't just endlessly grinding mobs and didn't have a cash shop, so they ripped out half the sandbox poo poo and added a cash shop

western autism is slightly different though so Trion is now trying to un-rip-out the sandbox stuff while maintaining the absolutely Pay2Win cashshop

diablo 3 console turned out indeed v good for couch coop, i have found out that the wife loves smashing skeletons with bare hands and has an unhealthy obsession with minmaxing
this game literally has fist of north star skill why did everyone hate it?
designers apparently were inspired by devil may cry or god of war because it even has health orbs and murderstreaks and challenge chests. a good thing imo
skill tree is fun but so far it has been more a matter of which flash do you like more than any kind of tactical crap

i dont get why I needed to kill leoric (and listen to his dumb CORRUPTION backstory) when he got his asse boned twenty years ago; dota was forced to namechange baller king for this? there is Butcher on some ads, will i need to listen how he fell from grace of being the best baker in the kingdom?

wish there was a non-fps sci-fi diablo clone, just melting hordes of robots with a raygun and visiting cliche planets. risk of rain owns but it is its own thing

that part is really easy though :psyduck:

tip: when you're outside, look up at the window with the seagulls. follow the searchlight back, that's the only one you need to disable to get to the top. when you attempt a climb, travel the island counter-clockwise. this makes the hardest stealth section much much shorter and easier.

e: also you never need to go to the lower parts of the island where it's just hallways with moblins, if you get down there just let yourself get caught

all this wind waker talk made me install dolphin with the high res textures pack and the 360 controller buttons hud, it looks very good

HOWEVER

there's stuttering (like less than a second) when it loads custom textures (when say, i do a 180'), is this a dolphin issue with custom textures?

it works great with the "stock" textures

it's self-reported by nintendo ("over 1 million copies"), so i'd assume they included digital sales. x/y did 1.8m physical copies on the first day according to media create numbers

probably

its a fan pack so its probably just buggy. if i had to guess because the textures are a larger file size the load times changes from insignificant to not-so-insignificant.

wind waker is good but i really don't get why its so hyped, it doesn't hold my attention very well at all. i think i just cleared that island where you get the song and i have a dragon boat, that was the last time i played it.

nah the negative reviews can be chalked up to the following:

-I expected an MMO and got Halo with loot and grinding (33%)
-I expected Halo with a few online gimmicks and got an MMO (33%)
-this is a AAA activision game with enormous hype so it must be bad (33%)
-I played the game and did not like it (1%)

i cant wait for elminage gothic, then wasteland 2's official release

september turning out to be a good rpg month
don't forget shadowrun: returns: dragonfall: director's cut: standalone edition: the jame

i'm still sort of annoyed that with dead man's switch & dragonfall out of the way they hinted that they might keep making new campaigns but then instead just decided to take one of the existing ones and make it better. also that they chose the one that was already clearly better to just make it betterer. and the whole thing of making it a standalone jame i guess means fragmenting the modding scene or just killing off modding for the original, and then what happens if they do make more campaigns later, is the same thing going to happen again?

but yeah from the :iamafag:backer:razz: updates it still sounds like director's cut gon own, seems they're actually addressing some but not all of the things that i thought made it feel unfinished. plus apparently several new endings, hopefully it includes one where you can side with the badguy and sacrifice the flux state to murder all dragons :unsmigghh:.

and i'm about due for a second playthrough anyway; so far i've just played both shadowrun returns campaigns once each and both as a combo deckjanitor/pistolshooter so it would be nice to instead go physical adept and just punch mans all day. also it's good that it's free for people who already have dragonfall but otoh if they'd made a third campaign instead that might mean they'd have more money to then finance a fourth campaign :ohdear:
