played the age of decadence beta demo. i like the little ways it fucks with you for following standard RPG logic

so combat's really lethal, meaning that i want to avoid fighting, even if my character's strong. at one point i was asked by a shopkeeper to get rid of his rival, who's working directly for the local lord. he didn't care how, so long as the guy wasn't around anymore

i find the guy, and get him into an abandoned house. i could try to kill him, but instead i figured to go the non-lethal route and tell him that if he doesn't leave town, he's going to get murdered. he agrees to leave town

i eventually go to meet the local lord, only to find the guy i told to leave town. he ratted me out, and now i'm kind of screwed into being the lord's pawn, or else i'm facing execution

i kind of like the idea that he just went and told the local law about me. it goes against game convention, but it's just the obvious thing to do

Just got a ps4 and MGS V, and through some game sharing stuff I have my buddy's Ground Zereos. Worth it to play through GZ first then start V?

GZ serves as the prologue to TPP, and it's just 2-3 hours to complete the main mission, so go for it

it is not worth it to play either of those games and i would further suggest trying to get your money back for the ps4 as well

the tranq pew pew fulton floomp floomp approach is feeling so easymode that i'm actively going for a loud lethal approach now. never gonna get to use all these shotguns otherwise

having a normal pistol is actually a little more forgiving when you get reflex moded with your pants down by a dude with body armor and a helmet - where normally you'd just somehow ping the dart off the dude's face, using a silent .45 sends the helmet flying and knocks the guy off balance long enough to sprint in for a shoulder throw megaton punch

you get the full reflex mode if you bring up the scope real fast. helps for longer sprints.

i've only used it a couple times its super easy to get around most levels without getting spotted. i kinda wish you could go "subsistence" mode by in other levels because i never use my rifle ever.

If you're such a big man, turn reflex mode off and stop bragging about using it online.

water pistol is seriously the best pistol if you're trying to go for fast times on levels. its basically a quickdraw magazine and you can hold up guards with it. i never took the dogge on that level, you only ever see two guards anyway. if i didnt get laid off i probably wouldnt sperg out over mgs this much

this loving thing is $150. that's kinda nuts. at least it comes with a carrying case. If you want to use it on PC they will be selling an extra adapter, even if you already have Bluetooth (because gently caress you that's why)

it uses bluetooth now?

lol, if you're on a FOB mission and a defender shows up, you should just ALT+F4 immediately.

They can just start shooting grenades around and all of the guards go hyper alert and instantly know where you are even if you've got stelath camo + are hiding far away from everything.
