also IIRC the f35 can't take off normally from some of our aircraft carriers because they aren't long enough

:confused: it has a specific carrier variant?

that's a feature

along with

the stealth coating coming off in the rain

the vtol being useless on most aircraft carriers because the plane is so fuckin heavy the vtol jet needs to run hot enough to melt the deck

the oxygen system turning off when it crosses the international date line

the helmet which most of the HUD stuff is on not working

the plane basically falling apart on the tarmac if it isn't constantly maintained

the plane just kinda randomly falling out of the air

i played 1 first and stopped after like the first or second assassination when i went "hang on i'm doing this same exact thing seven more times?" because it wasn't actually very fun to do even once

DEHUMANIZE  YOURSELF  &  FACE  TO  BLACULA
1 was a cool idea
2 was that cool idea executed well
brotherhood was that cool idea with great gameplay
revelations was the same game, only different and with the only interesting protagonist (he got interesting in this one)
3 is a legit badgame that makes you trudge through like 6 hours of gameplay and unstoppable cutscenes before the world opens up. then it's still a badgame only with collectibles
4 is an awesome pirate simulator in which you don't actually play as an assassin

drank all day and played density, went from lvl 6 to lvl 18.

same game all the way through, you just go from black caves with purple highlights to brown caves with green highlights and sometimes the bad guys are robots and sometimes they're weird reptile people.

i made it to mars where the bad guys are all the brutes from halo. the jackals/sangheli/kig-yar/unggoy from halo are all the fallen and the halo sentinel/robot guys are "the vex."

like straight up ripped off they own drat game.

the "strikes" are sort of like dungeons from WoW or something, you get matched with 2 other peeps and go down through caves to a midpoint where you have to defend peter dinklage against like a billion waves of lovely enemies, and then once you do that you can continue on past a few more enemies to the final boss guy who literally has more hitpoints than the entire rest of the dungeon several times over.

seriously you just have 3 guys unloading on the dude, reloading and then doing it again until they're all out of ammo, and then they spawn more basic enemies who you melee to death and then get more ammo and keep shooting the main bad guy (who is leashed to a tiny area and you basically just play peekaboo to kill him). this has been the exact same plan for all 4 strikes I've done so far.

On FF XV’s Progress:
In terms of development, about 50 to 60 percent of the game is complete. We kind of started from the beginning of the game, so the first part is more complete than the others.

yeah this really

all the strikes are

-Start in the open world for some reason and spend 5 minutes traveling/killing the regular patrol enemies to get to the instanced area

-few big clusterfucks of enemies

-defend the dinklage from however many waves of enemies would actually be sorta fun + 5

-Big stupid HP sponge boss with gun that instagibs anyone but titans, but still sorta instagibs titans

The Venus strikes were far less horrendous than the moon strike however

the one boss that was basically a giant version of the fallen captain dudes was at least sort of fun to fight since it was fast and didn't kill you if it had LOS on you for one second

the moon strike is loving awful
