Even so, it's a grindfest. I'm halfway convinced the only reason there's a (bog standard) upgrade system is because the letter selection algorithm is a bit shite. And the dictionary database it uses is extremely questionable. It feels like a phone game they just removed the IAP for but didn't change anything else.

Akuma posted:I just looked up the context and that's pretty funny.  Really, you'd THINK tDToM would have local multiplayer from looking at it, based on the kind of game it is, but it doesn't, because it was cheaper to make it the way it is. I played and beat Letter Quest in about 3 hours. It was a pretty OK 3 hours but I liked Bookworm Adventures 15 years ago, so there's that.

I even own Boggle on the PS4, so I'm not big fan of these types of games, but Letter Quest is just SO uninspired. It feels like someone's senior year programming project.

Unfortunately one 20 minute play session was more than enough for me, it just isn't very fun to play. The VA for the protagonists isn't as good either. The VA for the woman's fine, but the male VA misses the mark. e: I like that the bad guy has an interocitor RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 15:55 on Nov 5, 2016 |

Considering how tired I am of zombies I gotta say, Organ Trail was a very good choice at like $3. I'm sure a lot of it is nostalgia but there's something incredibly relaxing about watching an RV endlessly trundle along as your friends/family/the cast of Frasier/the current presidential candidates die off one by one thanks to your bad decisions, all in 8-bits. I think the music helps.

Awesome! posted:pretty sure they patched it into the pc version By the by, finished Steamworld: Heist, and it was pretty good. One thing I did have wrong is the water loss if you abort/lose a mission. I didn't realize at first it's a percentage of the total currency you have banked, so at higher difficulties it really is a big hit. Also, I had assumed it came with the DLC but it didn't. Oh well.

Just curious, for the spend 100 get 15 back promo, we should get that 15 by the 15th, correct? I haven't done it in a couple of years so I can't remember when exactly it shows up in your wallet.

Just saw a PSN notification message dated 11/4 that I've got a free $10 credit to spend by November 30th. Anyone else get this? Or could it have to do with me buying/registering a PS4 last week?

It also helps that, as tired as zombies and zombie parodies are, Oregon Trail's theme of the hardships of survival is a perfect match for a zombie re-skin. Pretty much every situation in Oregon Trail has an apocalyptic analog that doesn't feel forced. Also the little cameos are fun.

Thanks, folks. Any suggestions for an online place to buy one that won't try to gently caress me over? eBay seems reasonable but I don't want to overpay.Our local shops are...expensive, used or new.

It often goes on sale for less than that but I wouldn't recommend it unless you enjoy games where even after you've figured out all the not very well explained mechanics you still have to plan out every stage entirely in your head before you even take the first turn.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Is it fairly safe to say PS3 isn't getting many more games at this point? No but there are a decent amount of games that are still locked to the PS3 and never came out for anything else. El Gallinero Gros posted:Thanks, folks. Any suggestions for an online place to buy one that won't try to gently caress me over? eBay seems reasonable but I don't want to overpay.Our local shops are...expensive, used or new. Honestly I would try to buy direct from someone. I know a good portion of my friends are all trying to unload their PS4s at the same time for the Pro and there will definitely be people settling for much less than they're worth after release. Most likely once the pro is out the price of a used old PS4 will plummet.

Sony just tried to auto-renew my PS+ even though I have a year left. Now my PS4 has lopped off a year and says it expires in a few days. What the gently caress is Sony trying to pull here? Thank God I have auto-renew turned off. If they'd successfully charged my card I'd be super pissed.

Are the Sword art games any good. I never watched the anime it's apparently based off of but I enjoyed most of the dot hack series which is by the same company.

Depends on which one. Hollow Fragment Vita was pretty fun once you got a hang of the systems and building yourself into a monster with zero attack delay and basically infinite SP. The PS4 version made a bunch of changes though so skills didn't take SP but had a cooldown, meaning you couldn't buff yourself into spamming them infinitely. Lost Song is an incredibly vanilla action RPG thing, but isn't terrible. Just bland at best. Hollow Realization is Hollow Fragment style gameplay, but I don't know anything more specific beyond that.

What the gently caress is Sony trying to pull here? did you buy the year recently, and are you sure that the one year left wasn't pending while they were trying to charge for the auto-renewal? Schroeder91 posted:Awesome, Bloodborne DLC is finally on sale! a week ago, I would have considered getting this, because I've enjoyed Bloodborne a lot (last time I played, I had just beaten The One Reborn), but World of Final Fantasy is taking up all my time now, and with FFXV coming out this month, I don't know if I'll get back to Bloodborne any time soon. morallyobjected fucked around with this message at 18:05 on Nov 8, 2016 |
