I have some of my games tagged as backlog, some as played, some as maybe (stuff like skyrim and ai war which could be played forever if I have nothing else), and most of them untagged because I gave up like 50 games in.

 Ryse is a dumb, bad game, and even having received it for "free" from gifting someone FF13 in revenge, I regret the six hours I spent on it. That said, for a few brief seconds I did not regret those hours at all.

Lemon Curdistan posted:The gap in quality between the four launch classes (which are all fairly boring) and Gaige/Krieg is so huge, I really hope it was indicative of them learning to design better after BL2 and not just of designing the DLC classes better because they were DLC. Well the skill trees have been up for a bit. Athena and Claptrap definitely seem to have their own quirks. Claptrap has his own stack system (which boosts his damage with one weapon type at a time) and Athena seems to have a bunch of mobility and melee skills.

Played (no category, just the regular games category) Unplayed (everything i've not played; all installed on my machine) Persistent (Games that stay on my machine that i come back to time and time again. MMO's fit in here. Games like Street Fighter, etc) Meh (Everything that i've played and thought were poo poo. I don't use the hide games feature because i need to remind myself of my shame which stops me from buying just any old shite because it's on sale.) To play (my mini backlog. I put 4 games in here and play each of them simultaneously to mix it up a bit. Once i'm done with the 4 games, i put another 4 in from the unplayed category.) I also sort my lists by install size, and i plug through my backlog from the biggest installs to the smallest. This way you've got a good random mix of games to play which usually leaves all of the smaller indies to last.

These Loving Eyes posted:How badly will I get my rear end kicked in MGR: Revengeance, if I'm not that well acquinted with the games of that genre (e.g. Bayonetta, DMC series etc.)? I recently bought Castlevania: LoS, and had some problems with wrapping my head around activating powers, reaction-blocking and varying my combos. On the other hand, the LoS series is poo poo from start to finish, so maybe I just didn't even want to put that much thought into the game. For what it's worth, a friend of mine who's not very good at Platinum games in general (he found Bayonetta really tough and couldn't progress beyond a certain point, for instance) managed Revengeance just fine. That's not to say he didn't find it difficult, but he enjoyed it and played it all the way through.

I will probably never categorize my Steam games beyond favorites / nonfavorites because of how Steam would always delete them the next time you signed in anyway. Obviously finding stuff is really drat difficult

Because opinions change over time, and not everyone has like five hundred games off of bundles alone. Now an "ehhhh  " category and a separate "Why the gently caress did I pay dollars for this" category make some sense.I usually just hide stuff if it's third-party DRM or if a future version of the game (including discrete GOTYs) categorically outclasses it.

Morter posted:He sounds so angry when he's telling you to buy the dodge move. Why? (It's making me crack up, though Because one of the major complaints when MGR came out was that there is no dodge move, even though there totally is a dodge move and the game's tutorials are just garbage and don't tell you where it is or that it exists or how to use it. The dodge move isn't called "dodge", it's called "defensive offense", which to some people doesn't sound like a dodge move at all so they didn't buy it and thus that complaint was spawned. Parrying is also incredibly poorly explained.

The game does explicitly tell you to go and buy new moves at one point, takes you right into the store screen, and it's designed so that the only thing you CAN afford is Defensive Offense. It's laid out so that you're drawn to buy it. The game does everything short of forcing you at gunpoint to buy the drat move, and yet a lot of gamers thought they were being smart by skipping it. Turns out? It's absolutely goddamn essential. When a Platinum game goes 'Hey, this thing? You should look at this thing, right here. Now', you probably should pay attention. They're complex, but not deceptive.

I'm starting Inversion, a Gears of War clone that got a PC port. The game crashes randomly between checkpoints, and crashes 100% of the time you reload a checkpoint from the game (like after a death). I've got 25 minutes played and have had five or six crashes so far. First game I've ever had crash problems with.

DW it's going to respond by saying "well it's in the move list" but I had no idea the game even included a move list until this thread talked about it. That said, the dodge move is in no way necessary to beat the game on normal.

Yeah, there's a bunch of ways to categorize games, but just keep it simple or else you'll never utilize it. I think it's important to have a "Bundle Dump" catagory. Just dump all those random lovely bundle games (especially all those hidden-object / mobile ports / pixelart "adventure" / etc) that you have no idea what the gently caress they are in there. It'll reduce probably about 20%-50% of clutter and make life a lot easier. Quest For Glory II posted:I also created a category for "Sidelog Queue" because there are some games I played through where I ignored the side missions/DLC and I intend to go back to them, like Arkham Origins, FEAR, rear end Creed IV, etc.  Or at least I wouldn't. I've learned if I don't do everything I wanted to do / finish it entirely shortly after "beating" it, I'll never ever go back since I've long forgotten what it was/controls/whatever Xaris fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Oct 12, 2014 |
