superhot would have been way better had they actually made new levels for the challenges, or at the very least changed the enemy spawns. It just felt super lazy that they made the campaign levels, which there weren't a lot of in the first place, and just recycled them. I can't imagine the very simplistic levels too hard to make either

didnt that game suck?

its a limbo-like platformer in that it's style over substance and the main story from what i played seems to be that you are helping an alsheimers grandma recover her memories or something? its very boring imo but if you want photorealistic apple manipulation in your simple platformer it might be interesting.

i'm glad that people want to be deeply personal with the games they make i just hope they make them more fun that unravel while they're at it.

There's a lot of "possibly good, but probably not" games out in may, like Battleborn, Doom, and Total War: Warhammer.

Morning Games chat, I played more Dark Souls III and Star Fox Zero over the weekend.

Very minor gripe at the moment with Dark Souls but I thought it was kinda dumb that (Undead Settlement Spoiler)Siegmeyer is basically in the game under the name Siegward. He's cool and all but he feels kinda shoved in there. It's kinda silly to clone a dude straight for that and give him a big reveal going "Hey remember this dude!"

It's minor and I know what others really wanted from DS3 was more DS1but it irks me a bit when it's like that.

Star Fox Zero is okay? The controls can be too much to handle in hectic situations but some parts are really fun. I'm willing to give reviewers the benefit of the doubt if they had a short amount of time to review the game and get used to the controls for it.

Get used to that in DS3, it's basically 'hey remember this bit from DS1??' the game.


Due to the presence of zipper hat I assume this is some Kingdom Hearts thing

Aye that is Kingdom Hearts Donald in one of the brief moments he isn't dead in fights.

I think being beat up so much in that game affected his brain

Having just seen the asylum demon but made of rock I think I agree that's what the game's turning into.

Check every recognisable dead body holding an item in the game, they're usually an NPC from DS1/2.

Take a nap for like an hour when you get back.

I've no idea what else is coming out soon, figure it's gonna be the general game drought for this time of the year.

I think May is going to be a month dedicated to Dark Souls/Bloodborne for me. Now that things are finally clicking for me in DS3 I can go back and replay the earlier games that I never managed to get into. Plus I have to play that new Ratchet and Clank game sometime because R&C is the best.

How the original Deus Ex handles it's multiple choice ending is really loving cool.

You get to the final area and keep getting handed different objectives by the multiple factions in the game, and if you start doing an objective for one faction the others start yelling at you to change your mind which you can totally do up until you finish one.

The problem with Britcoms is, somewhere between 15 to 30% of it will be done as a one-sided telephone conversation :britain:

I felt this lost its punch in Deus Ex 2 because a bunch of things didn't matter for the final ending, and unless you made all the anti-faction choices, they were on the table at the end. But then again, Deus Ex 2 :shrug:

I honestly don't remember the ending to Deus Ex 1, even though I beat it on two separate occasions.

I'm really hopeful the TMNT game is good, and that comes out in May.

Also Stellaris comes out the first week of May so that could be cool, as well as Total War Warhammer.
