the dead space series is a lot of fun but you shouldn't expect horror. it's about shooting things into little pieces with space guns and then stomping the remainder of their bodies into little pieces to make sure they don't get up again. the writing is also terrible, but in a comically overwrought way, so if you aren't a huge sperg about that kind of stuff, you'll probably enjoy the zen art of dismemberment.

I feel like I'm missing out by not playing any survival horror crafting zombie whatever the hell games, but are there any that are even worth it?

Confusing as hell if you don't watch the first two or three LP's of it to explain what to do, but underrated.

Bobby The Rookie posted:Is Endless Legend good or is it for babies? Its a 4x game that basically said "hey man, lets make it so the races are more than just free starting tech and small +/- resource differences" but its big call out on the box feature of quests are often buggy or so inconvenient as to be unfinishable and only matter at all if you're going for the games equivalent of Alpha Centauri's stupid loving become pure light victory and you have to fuckin love really mediocre turn based strategy combat to not just slap auto resolve at every opportunity. Oh and despite having a tutorial pretty much every race has a mechanic that's core to their gameplay that's never explained nor has a tooltip telling you how to use it to compound on some other unexplained systems the game is stacked on. Pretty fun though, that aside. A solid $10-$15 title assuming you dig the genre and are not currently reliant on your mother for both mobility and sustenance.

Hoodrich posted:this sounds good. i didn't care for endless space, how does it compare to that Never played it so ??? I can say that the make or break point for the game is does the following race sound cool: A group of cultists that are a) impossible to play until you figure out some of the games semi-hidden bullshit involving city burroughs and happiness and b) an inventive 4x race because you can only ever build one city no take backs and have to conquer the globe by using an endless supply of mediocre but completely free minor factions units given to you after you indoctrinate their city to your death cult.

the AI in endless legend is pretty much dog poo poo which shouldnt be a surprise since it's a 4x. so sp is the normal 4x sp thing of you're basically jacking off your ego by building up a cool empire without any real difficulty

The early bits in the ship graveyard are cool at least, but once you head to the planet surface it all goes to hell.

This is true, but I also would not have played Yakuza or Zack & Wiki if not for goon exposure Thankfully we have the imp zone now, where proper taste reigns full time

AHungryRobot posted:how is infamous second son? is it better or worse than the first two games? I thought it was better than the first two, but it's nothing groundbreaking. There are different power sets and everything is more polished but it's still pretty much just shoehorning superpowers into a third person shooter. You get movement abilities which are pretty epic, though.

Looper posted:So what you're saying is it's not like RE4 in the best of ways the gameplay is RE4 quality, in terms of fun, controls, enemy variety, etc. the story is a joke and the amount of unskippable cutscenes are annoying and that brings it down. theres also an upgrade system for the guns like RE4's but it's stupid because the upgrades are so tiny that even when a gun is at max level it's like 20% stronger than the default.
