Destiny is a terrible loot based game.
Gameplay is good, but the game gives you poo poo loot, you are unable to get to the max power level by yourself alone and there is not that much variety in top level weapons. And there is not that much variety in the single player, except the days when the game decides to hold your evening hostage.

Are there any good loot based action games, for PC, PS4, PSVita or PS3? (I already have borderlands: the handsome collection, I might also play that again).

Fallout 4 is a great action based loot game.

Yup, good choice, but I already decided I'm going to buy that when a few patches drop, had already played skyrim on pc with funny bugs on launch.

Great almost everything on that direct I want now.

I'll get Twilight Princess cause I actually liked that game despite a lot of bad poo poo in it.
I'm getting Star Fox Zero cause it looks fun.
Getting that Paper Mario & Luigi game.
Gonna probably get Xenoblade X despite being unsure about it.
Pokken Tournament because it looks ridiculous and fun.

Really unsure if I want DQ8 though, I might just play the PS2 version.

GUYS HELP I"M STARTING TO GET HYPED FOR GAMES AND I THINK I HAVE FAITH THAT GAMES ARE GOOD AGAIN.

I think aside from the lovely fishing thing the motion controls were fine. There were never any real need for precise slashes so you never had to do a full motion swing like Skyward Sword.

Aiming controls were fun in TP for obvious reasons.

Help I feel like 99% of games are boring as gently caress lately. The only game on the horizon that I'm positive I'll have a ton of fun with is Just Cause 3. I sort of enjoyed Arkham Knight and MGSV but ended up not finishing either because by the end they both became too tedious and repetitive. What am I missing.

Sounds like you need something with crazy action like Just Cause 3.

Good luck.

The Just Cause guys made the Mad Max game, which I sunk about 60 hours into with no regrets. Maybe that'll tide you over.

Wasn't hyped for anything this year, it's actually kind of great.

Like I forgot about MGSV this year until five days before release and I enjoy the crap outta it.

Less hype is good.

At least with Skyward Sword, my enjoyment went up a lot when I went in and hacked out a lot of annoying crap with Ocarina. I don't think it's a great Zelda but enjoyed the experience overall more than say Twilight Princess or the awful DS games.

I just realized that the Steam release of ADOM is coming out in 3 days. Anyone know what the release price might be? I've never played it before and am interested.

I'd buy a Steam version of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup in a second. Support roguelikes, folks

I wonder how well would I be able to play the 3ds version, considering most people playing it online are most certainly not from near me since I live in a starving 3rd world country, they would most likely go for the filez solution, so maybe ppsspp is actually my best option forever

P3rd is your best bet since Tri is actually missing several classes of weapons (gunlances are missing entirely for example). Also it's the only one where they did bowguns in a weird way where you build them out of several pieces.

I am playing Fallout 4 and it is kind of bumming me out because when Bethesda makes a lovely broken fantasy game, it's like "yeah well that's exactly what you'd expect" but every time they make a lovely broken Fallout game it just hurts a little more.

I really genuinely wish they would just retain publishing rights but let Obsidian be the Fallout devs forever. It has so much potential as a franchise but every other game stinks. :(

Yeah, I'm aware of it, I played 1000 hours if you combine my mhfu and mhp3rd saves, I've been playing since the time it was only possible to play monhun online decently with an actual psp, xlink kay and a usb wireless card
