holy gently caress MGSV is amazing

that 40 min gameplay must have been some custom poo poo because when I was getting the interpreter it was a hut with 3 guys

he even had D-Dog which you don't get until that mission and it's a puppy

can't wait to sink more time, I'm playing really loving slow but it's worth it sneaking around and causing poo poo

I gotta stop killing guys after I get their info tho, reduces my nokill score :3:

Got home, MGSV still had 5 hours to go. Updates were queued that required a restart so I paused the dl and restarted the computer.

When Steam restarted again the dl progress was 0% and remaining time: 1 day 8 hours. :cry:

It's a fun game. I love upgrading my magnum opus.

I'm glad I played a bit of ground zeros today. It kept me from buying MGS5. Just not a fan of the series

say what you will about the oblivion zoomcam, it was way better than skyrim's tendency to have the npc you're talking to get roasted by a dragon mid conversation

mad max is real fun

i kind of don't understand the magnum opus/archangel thing though. I'm driving the Jack now. so it uses my additions on the magnum ops screen and adds them to the base bonuses of the jack that also had to buy? What happened to my MO, why can't I drive that anymore?

i started playing type 0 again last night, that game suffers from its silly timer system, but the fighting is fun. the plot is the same dumb camp i've come to expect.

might start mgs 2 or 3 tonight. glad i skipped on mad max, it'll be available for 30 bucks in like 2 months, so that seems like a fun deal. nov/dec gonna be hard game months for me with persona 5, xenoblade, and a few other jrpg releases.

games journalism is corrupt as gently caress and we all know it and it's never getting fixed because a bunch of fedora wearing creeps decided that the best way to fix it was to attack a woman for maybe having consensual sex

this has nothing to do with corruption, i think it's that the game is really generic and derivative and as a critic you're going to be playing it in that context

incidentally metacritic tracked 14 games last year that scored 90 or above. of them, a grand total of one was not a sequel or reissue, but even that played heavily on nostalgia (shovel knight)

game critics love stagnant bullshit
