It's been a while but from what I remember the old guy is about to do something important to stop the great evil from appearing, but then he hesitates and suddenly the wind blows his beard to the side and reveals the great evil's icon on his chest. Something appears out of portal, old guy enters portal himself, boss fight with the something, portal is temporary closed, setup for sequel that never happened, the end.

If he could disguise himself to not look like a blue cyber evil thing why did his human disguise have an "I"m actually evil, FYI" tattoo?

I don't think he was one of those things. He probably was just an agent of the guys in the other dimension. It's probably not explained in detail because you know, last minute plot-twist.

D4  Imagine if you were watching Memento and then 30 minutes into the movie a background extra tore off his clothes revealing a superhero costume with JG emblazoned on the front, yelled out "LEONARD SHELBY I AM THE JOHN G WHOM YOU ARE LOOKING FOR, I AM THE ONE WHO KILLED YOUR WIFE ALL ALONG" and then they dramatically leapt at each other only to freezeframe right before their fists collide with a "TO BE CONTINUED" flashing on the screen and then the credits rolling. That's what the ending to D4 is like.

The No More Heroes ending was pretty good because the game was farcical and episodic by nature, having the last-minute twist and bizarre ending worked to that. D4 was a murder mystery built around trying to figure out the identity of a murderer based on clues that just had a bunch of stuff...happen and then ended right when the  was starting to kick in. Considering that Deadly Premonition had the killer driving around with a "HESTHE1" license plate for the entire game I wasn't really expecting a masterclass in suspense but you can tell that the Kinect being such an obvious sinking ship that everybody was rushing to get off of wound up effecting the developmentIf you don't care about spoilers here's the game's ending, even with context starting around 2:30 it doesn't make much more sense: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp-2eJLR8Ms Leal posted:Supposedly it sold well enough on PC that they're working on season 2.

I still really enjoyed the game and will totally buy a second season just for all the crazy dialogue and puzzles and collectibles, the ending just kind of put a damper on the whole experience.

Speaking of the connection I know you're alluding to here, I feel I can best describe MH4's controls as 'like if Dark Souls controlled like poo poo'. It's legitimately the only game I've played where, actually, stealing unrepentantly from Dark Souls definitely would improve it. I'll grant that I wasn't playing it with the New 3DS, which apparently helps the experience a lot by hefting the camera onto the second control stick-nub-pad-thing, but I honestly found the camera came lower than I expected it to on my list of issues.

When I bought a New 3DS and played Monster Hunter 4U on it, it made so much of a difference that now I can't play it on the original 3DS. Too uncomfortable. As for things dragging Monster Hunter down, I'm a huge fan, but they really should let people join quests after they've started. It'd make things so much easier for everyone.

So I'm seven years late to this one but holy hot drat the last five minutes of Fallout 3 are about as dumb as they could possibly be. The game ramps up really well until that point, too, which makes it a real shame. The final sequence where you're walking Liberty Prime over to Project Purity is loving awesome and a great capstone on everything that happens after meeting your dad. Then you go into the chamber and OH NO you have to do this RIGHT STAT NOW. Fawkes, I thought you were my bro, what the gently caress is this bullshit about my destiny being to die on the floor like a bitch? I even have the GOTY edition which I thought solved some of these problems but I couldn't figure out a way to make either of my companions actually do it. What a lovely, stupid ending. I didn't go out of my way at all to get Fawkes to join me, you run into him on the main quest literally two or three steps before the finale so it would be almost weird NOT to have him along. gently caress Bethesda's writing team.

But that's the best part of the games themselves you gently caress god damnit I'm not going to pre-emptively say that their attempt to give the protagonist in Fallout 4 a voice and personality is going to drag that game down, but I'm not optimistic.

Pretty much that though. Not like you got a ton of choice in 3 either and the thing that will most likely drag the game down the most will be who made it. I'm hearing so much conflicting poo poo but it's probably a good idea to wait for release and then another month to pick it up. Just like any Bethesda game and if it's poo poo then I can wait for a cheap GOTY.

Its honestly not, its just for whatever reason most people never use the touchscreen pad. Which is silly because its super loving useful. In 3U you didn't really have an option, in underwater battles you had to git gud with the touchpad. But in 4 those are gone again so most people just use spam the lock-on button and get by that way. The c-stick is super nice but I'm still livid that Nintendo couldn't include a second proper control stick. I don't care if you have to make the N3DS like 50% fatter, give me another stick!

Ryoshi posted:So I'm seven years late to this one but holy hot drat the last five minutes of Fallout 3 are about as dumb as they could possibly be. With the Broken Steel DLC you should have been able to talk to Fawkes or Charon and get a conversational option to tell them to do it. They still give you poo poo for it which is terrible writing because neither of them are harmed by radiation, but the option should have been there. Were you using a mod to have multiple companions, maybe that was somehow messing it up? I played it on the 360 and the option was there for me with BS installed. gently caress, even without radiation proof companions by that point in FO3 I had enough radiation resistant gear and drugs to retire to chernobyl without any ill effects. And there is an obvious easy fix for it too; Just dont have the danger be radiation. Have the water purifier run incredibly hot (or super cold) or something when it starts up, and you now have a reason for your companions to balk at the request, none of them are immune to extreme termperatures. I assume its because they always planned post-game DLC and figured "surviving supposedly lethal radiation" was more plausable than suriving a massive fire wihout any burns. Still lovely writing though, and I say that as someone who really loved fallout 3. Edit: Ryoshi posted:No seriously how am I supposed to pass this poo poo off to another person and do the GOTY poo poo? This blows. Silly question, but you definately did install the DLC from the game of the year edition? All of the DLC should be available before the post-game aside from Broken Steel. You should have radio signals on your pip boy that lead you to the start points for the Pitt, Operation Anchorage, Mothership Zeta (which is by the way terrible) and I think Point Lookout (which is intended as post lvl-20 content, but you dont have ot have finished the story).

Call me a cynic, but I'm more inclined to believe that they added the "Fawkes, do this becaues it wont kill you" option due to backlash but that broken steel was always planned in one form of another as longas the game and its other DLC sold well. If I was releasing a game with hazily planned postgame DLC I'd also claim that the end of the game was the end because then I dont have to deal with people complaining that they were being sold an "unfinished story" or whatever.
