Replaying Splinter Cell Blacklist a bit, I forgot how much like Mass Effect 2 it is. Hub based, loyalty system, all in an episode of 24. A really great game no one played :/

Shima Honnou posted:You can do it non-lethal. You have to be quick though, there's too much fire to take it slow or stealthily. Better have a bunch of candy bars/protein powder on hand because you're going to be punching a lot. You also have to make sure if you use an EMP grenade on the box-bot that soldiers, conscious or unconscious, aren't anywhere near it or they'll be killed by the explosion.

I did that plane ambush thing with a loving taser prod. I didn't have any actual guns on hand, so I was sprinting around like a motherfucker. It was pretty intense. I saved her  PrinnySquadron posted:I'm reinstalling Torchlight 2 again: what are the best mods for it? uninstalling it.

The Kins posted:Yeah, in early 2008 Turtle Rock became "Valve South", so L4D2 was entirely under the Valve umbrella. Later that year, Valve South was shut down - a bunch of people moved to the main Seattle studio and a bunch stayed behind to reform Turtle Rock independently, where they helped out on the L4D2 DLC while staffing up and seeking out publishers for what became Evolve. This always was a little weird to me. I remember Turtle Rock because they know how to make a fun AI to fight against, so how did they go from L4D and its swarms of zombies and specials to a 5-player game with little-to-no AI?

bowmore posted:Question for the guys who have played Dues Ex Human Revolution, what are the most useful Augs to get at the start? Go with the augs that facilitate exploration and further communication options - better hacking (just levels, not the other hacking augs, which range from the situational to the completely useless), punch-through-walls, pheromones...

Lots of dialog and cool branching conversations, tons of world-building reading. Kinda lovely shooting (there's not too much, thankfully). It's a really dope game. Worth getting if you like read-heavy rpgs.

Fenix Rage is half off this week. It's a really good plat...well, I hesitate to say platforming since for the most part you're jumping and dashing infinitely through the levels, ideally without ever touching the ground. It's a fun Meat Boy kind of game where you can finish levels really quickly if you move in the right way.

Look up "respec potion" and "draw distance extender" so you can respec more than the last 3 points you spent and so enemies don't pop into view inches from your face. Haven't yet played enough to know about bigger mods but those are definitely good.

Awesome! posted:does this make it actually good or just less meh Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. For some reason the TL2 never grabbed me and the various mods did not help. I will say the game held my interest the longest when I was playing with the Far East 1 & 2 Packs but that might have been more of the various class/armor flavor that was added in.

razorrozar posted:How is this? I saw an early video on it a year-ish ago and it looked pretty neat. It's a shined-up student project, so it's thin, short and rough, but it's got a good grappling hook and some cool floaty-rocks environments to swing through. That's a good price if you want to be jetpack Spiderman for a couple hours.

razorrozar posted:How is this? I saw an early video on it a year-ish ago and it looked pretty neat. It's okay. It's only a few hours long to get through the narrative and any replays you get after that will be for getting the speed/perfect run achievements. Some of the puzzles you do with the laser grappling hook can be neat as the game gets harder and the landscapes can be quite pretty but the characters and their models, the voice acting, and the story itself are all fairly mediocre at best. I guess if you want to play a short puzzle game you could do a lot worse than that one for $2.50. Kibayasu fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Apr 20, 2015 |

I really wish Crypt of the Necrodancer would add UI prompts for an X360 controller so I don't have to actively think about what items are mapped to what combos and can instead just see a big colored circle and know.

nekoxid posted:Or you could just throw all the barrels at him (gas -> explosive -> repeat). I was playing on the PS3, but I was trying to do this and there was something preventing it from coming along. I did see some footage on youtube of people using crates for the entire play through, even the boss fights. 2 hours of tossing a crate to beat the one boss. I would have lost my patience or screwed up and died at some point.

Torchlight 2 took everything that made Diablo-likes good and decided to make every aspect boring. I don't know if mods fix that part or not but the core game is pretty bad.

I guess the bar was just set so low with the majority of EA games. Nah, it's always been early access, because it hasn't been a finished game. It has still been a shitload of fun in the state it's been in for the last months, though, and the devs have put in a ton of work updating, tuning, and polishing everything in it. This is seriously one of the best indie games from the last few years for me, I can't recommend it enough.
