So anybody with a bit of patience would be able to S-Rank the stealth bits of Peace Walker easily. This naturally presents a problem. The vehicle boss battles remain a slog though.

Aithon posted:Kingdom of Loathing is full of little things and absurdist jokes. Such as the alliterative main stats (Muscle, Moxie and Mysticality) and the million item descriptions. I think my favorite little thing in Kingdom of Loathing was anticheese. It works like antimatter in that if you put antimatter and matter together they annihilate each other. Only in this case anticheese annihilates the cheese from something if you combine it with some cheese-related item. Whatever word is left over is what you end up getting. Combining cottage cheese with anti cheese gets you a cottage. Yes, an actual building. You get the goat pet by combining goat cheese with anticheese. I think it had a few other uses as well. It wasn't a huge part of the game but I thought it was pretty clever. Probably the moment I laughed the hardest was when I realized how that worked.

I'm normally down for waiting on games that are confirmed to be coming stateside but it doesn't look like we'll ever actually get DDO so I bit the bullet and dove right in. DDO owns.

You can solo the entire game except for Grand Missions which are for 8 people/pawns and they're basically big retarded raids and they own. As for how friendly it is, well, there's more than a little grinding but it's not too bad since the game controls basically the same as DD:DA so it's still fun to actually play. And higher level pawns can get kind of expensive rift-crystal-wise, since you don't get to rent lower levels for free anymore.

F.E.A.R.: I like the heat-distortion effect coming from the exhausts on helicopters. Overall they did a pretty good job with lighting and effects in that game, even if the models and textures are clearly 2005-era.

XCOM2: I love that specialists, when successfully hacking into a robotic enemy will sometimes shout, "Hack the planet!" Also, I'm not sure if this was coincidence but I got a random rookie named "Arthur Dent" and he was from the UK. Poor bugger got reduced to 1 HP by a Berserker on his first mission. "Shaken" may have been classic British understatement.

MisterBibs posted:Maybe I'm just playing the wrong games, but I wish this sort of thing was replicated. I generally avoid thief classes in RPGs since 90% of mobs are generally all about getting up close to hit, and I think I'd play more of them if they were less "You're a dainty archer that hides in the shadow with a bow and arrow because one hit will kill you" and more "You're an dodgesassin, and you're just naturally going to have, like, half of the sword hits and arrows not hit you because you're trained to dodge poo poo". During the first expansion some guys figured out how much agility and buffs they had to stack on a rogue so that with some debuffs on the boss, the rogue could dodge-tank. Only worked on Gruul and Illidan as they did no direct spelldamage to their main target. I think you needed 4 or 6 people. Rogue, paladin and druid, forgot the others.

I know Payday 2 has a good dodgebuild but I never go suit only because I'm a gozy rear end in a top hat who can't shoot straight so I need to bullet sponge.

There used to be a bug in Payday 2 that I believe has since been fixed, where when you were crouching you got the same intrinsic percent chance bonus to dodge bullets or not be seen, no matter how fast you were actually moving. So a common tactic was to break into a mad dash, jump, and then bunny hop while crouched. You'd be moving at sprinting speed but without the movement sound penalty caused by sprinting and with the dodge bonus of crouching. Imagine being a cop, one of a few operating as the guards at a museum in the dead of night. You hear movement on the roof and go to check it out, only to find a band of merry assholes in clown masks practicing their olympic longjumps so that they can, somehow, infiltrate quietly.

It has been patched, but the way it worked was that there's a perk that gives extra dodge while sprinting as well as a perk that gives extra dodge while crouching, and there was nothing stopping you from combining the two to look so ridiculous you couldn't be hit by bullets. On the flipside, any time I come across a Super Pro 1337 Payday 2 Spec-Ops Ultra Kill Clan 360 No-Scope stealthing video, they still do the crouch jump thing and it still seems to work. You don't actually make any noise just by moving in Payday 2. I think the idea is that you're getting the reduced detection of being crouched while maintaining a higher velocity, which aside from the obvious benefit of getting around faster while being harder to spot, it also reduces the overall amount of time you spend within anything's line of sight. Frankly it's annoying to watch since it's not actually necessary most of the time.

See, that just reminds me of that one jackass friend who would always play Oddjob in Goldeneye. He would crouch-strafe and it was virtually impossible to hit him.

I'll keep this spoiler free just in case, but near the end of Witcher 3 you walk through a military camp set up in a place you've been to before, back when it was an abandoned village. Obviously there are tents and soldiers and barricades like you'd expect. But also, walk into any of the ruined huts and you'll find they're filled with officers' bunks or crates of food or weapons. Even the holes in the roofs have traps drawn over them on the inside and out. All this for something you walk past for a minute before hitting the endgame.

A strategy that's necessary to stay alive in SUPERHOT is to throw guns that won't reload fast enough in the face of enemies to stun them and make them drop their own gun. Little thing 1: If things line up right the enemy can accidentally shoot the gun out of the air.  Little thing 2: This doesn't come off as bullshit because the gun shatters and the pieces can still hit and stun them.

Superhot is the most innovative shooter I've played in years. My favorite thing is if you're a bad enough dude you can shoot other bullets out of the air.

Share on twitter (as in the button, you don't have to post the tweet) > get youtube link > imgur's video to gif > embed as gifv. Probably not worth it except that my clip is short enough to work as a gif.

The cyborgs in helldivers have big super armored human tanks that only show up on the hardest difficulties. There's an achievement called "stick it to the man" for using the "No!" voice command while in melee range of one.

Devil May Cry 4 has a protagonist named Nero who has a demonic arm, which you can use to climb ledges, suplex demons, ect. But as I found out while fighting Credo, it can also do things like grab massive spears out of the air and either destroy them, or fling them back. My fight with Credo devolved into a high speed tennis match that would put Ganondorf to shame.

The Devil Bringer is like a proto-parry from Revengeance in that it works on a surprising amount of attacks, and countering said attacks with it is usually key to getting a good Style Ranking though quick kills/not getting murdered.

I swear this is why so many people came away from DMC4 hating nero and not liking the game, because they never bothered playing around with the devil bringer and just sat there hacking at everything with their sword.
