The community was mostly fine at the time. It's not that things are getting worse. It's that you're getting older. edit-- there is water at the bottom of the ocean Love Stole the Day fucked around with this message at 12:40 on May 7, 2016 |

Zombies' Downfall posted:I thought they were a cool fight actually. The music is really frantic and it plays into the fight's mechanics, which encourage you to go ham and kill the boss as fast as possible. Which fits the theme of the player in the Abyss being forced to prove they're "alive" or whatever. quote:Dark Souls was a good game.

I just learned that there are people who look for sources of Doom textures: https://www.doomworld.com/vb/doom-general/85756-found-doom-sky-source-files/   It gets pretty abstract.

It was pretty annoying to finally play a match where you wrecked people but it only lasts 20 minutes instead of those 1 hour losing games. We found out if you ask the other team to surrender because you have to go to church they will never surrender. We did it all days of the week, and no one would ever want us to show up on time for Pastor John! Tenzarin fucked around with this message at 17:24 on May 7, 2016 |

There have always been terrible people on the internet but steam wasn't one of the nexuses where all these people organized to chat. Guy Mann posted:Right now the only good thing about the community is when you give a positive review to some tiny indie game and the devs personally comment to thank you That's a good point. It does work for community tech support and actually talking with small devs and that is really cool and a positive aspect of the whole thing. Yeah I dunno maybe I'm wrong and maybe in the same way tagging has cleaned up reviews, some simple organizing of the community sections could confine the ugliness to its own ghettos. bloodychill fucked around with this message at 19:11 on May 7, 2016 |

Anyone else playing Forza Apex? I'm having an awesome time with it! I've never played a Forza game before. I'm really enjoying how I can customize how hardcore I want to drive - if I'm feeling serious, I can turn off all the driving assists and struggle to just stay on the road, or I could relax and turn on traction control and just do some laps. Of course it'd be better with multiplayer, but I find racing games to be a lot of fun alone, just perfecting lap times. At least you can compare your scores with the leaderboards, where your score gets multiplied the fewer assists you use.

I mean I'm not exactly expecting much from the dialogue in a GoW game I'm just incredulous that someone actually sat down, wrote those two lines down together then went yup, that looks pretty good.

I beat DS3 last night and solo'd every boss... except the super secret boss. Had a couple people help on that one. Overall a ton of fun and the flaws are few. The one thing that frustrated me the most was that certain elevator switches that should have made certain parts of the game less frustrating in a QoL way just didn't work. This was especially annoying when repeating the twins boss fight.

Looper posted:the karaoke place i went to place night only had like two disney songs but it did have escape from the city (sonic adventure 2 OST) The touch pads on VIVE have some interesting haptic feedback, they used the Steam controller stuff, they can click and buzz and trick your brain into thinking there's a little bit of resistance. The best experience I've had yet is Job Simulator, and when you're flipping knobs and it clicks each time the knob passes a setting, it feels like you're clicking an actual radio knob. Opening the fridge door, cracking an egg on a pan, cooking it and tossing it in a customer's face feels amazing. The only problem is sometimes when you grab a door or something and pull on it, rather than move with you it sometimes lets go and you have to do it a couple times which feels a tiny bit frustrating, but its honestly no big deal and that's something they just need to sort out in software on the controls tracking so if you pull on a door it makes sure that you pull on it. You'd be surprised by how easy it is to fool your brain into thinking its feeling something that it isn't. If you see a drawer, and you reach over and grab it and pull it and it pulls with you and you feel a slight vibration, it seems like resistance.

I'm enjoying the Overwatch beta/demo more than I thought I would. It's good stuff, and I think it helps that I'm familiar with TF2 but never got hardcore into it. All the Overwatch characters play differently enough that even small changes to a team's composition can make big changes, and the mode that randomizes your hero every death is a lot of fun. I have enough Amazon points that I can pre-order it without spending a dollar, and it looks more and more tempting after every match.

What's a good comp headset? Me playing more than two hours at a time is pushing it, but I don't want to give myself some kind of brain aneurysm due to it being poo poo garbage. A bonus would be being able to use it on my office phone, or maybe xbox1, but I hardly play that ever.

Started playing the remastered version of Darksiders 2 and it honest to god looks better than a lot of current gen games. Shame the main character looks like he's been designed by Todd McFarlane.
