Finished Dying Light, it was great up until the last ten minutes, what is it with games having to end on a lovely QTE? Is it a Warner Bros thing?

It's a Western AAA thing, you'd be hard pressed to find modern Western AAA games that don't end in a QTE final boss fight.

Resident Evil Zero is surprisingly tough, I actually get killed by enemies, whereas in REmake I can easily run around 'em. Mostly 'cause there's way more enemies per room, like bigger groups of zombers.

Also there is a slimy leech monster and I thought that I could kill it with fire but I guess it can't be killed!!!! Silly me.

The new control scheme for REmake fucks its difficulty hard, it sucks.

I love Long Live The Queen and Magical Diary feels very much like a freshman effort. I'm glad it happened so they were able to shake out all their more cringeworthy fanfiction-level stuff before making LLtQ.

I agree, but I do really like that style of control for RE and hope that they build a new RE game in teh style of the classic series, but built and balanced around movement that fluid and smooth. It'd be a smash hit.

Boy, the moment I get my sixth party member in Pillars of Eternity is always the moment I lose interest in the game. I hate micromanagement. I'm going to set the game to Easy and just let the AI fight, I think.

I hope Obsidian can forgive me

I played through the whole main campaign on Easy when it first launched and then when the expansion fully came out I played through that on the Casual difficulty added.

I've never been a fan of traditional WPRG combat, but I enjoy their writing and roleplaying, so I'm glad Obsidian accommodated everyone.

My take has always been that JRPGs tend to have better combat while WRPGs have better roleplaying and writing.

I honestly think it's because they cared more about their bad story than their rad gameplay.

I've been looking for an easy way to turn damage off in Planescape: torment. I don't know if I built my party wrong or if I just am not pausing to spam spells and items enough, but it's a loving chore to keep these fuckers alive. The combat in this game is so horrid, it drags down what would otherwise be perhaps the best CRPG I've played.

I actually really like the combat mechanics of Pillars of Eternity, they're very well-considered, I just have trouble managing the amount of verbs you get when you have a full party. It's the same reason I can't play Starcraft 2 multiplayer.

Just play on Easy or put in the cheats. Also you gotta roll Mage if you want to get the most of the story. (Which you want to do.)

Cheat Engine is perfect for this. Just search for HP at All Values a few times and then lock it at full health.
