I found using an analog stick for movement and face buttons for aiming to be a huge improvement over old Isaac.

I'm about an hour into Wolfenstein and I'm loving the gently caress out of this game. If I enjoy New Order is Old Blood more of the same?

Gameplay, mostly. Theme, no. It's definitely great, but only about half to two-thirds. e: As you can tell from the page it's set during WWII and still features killin' nazis, but this time there's the traditional Wolfenstein occult stuff. The level designs are still pretty solid but they're not as tight overall. It's still fun, DEFINITELY worth the sale price, and I recommend it, but definitely finish TNO and then play TOB. It's the straight-to-VHS sequel that's still surprisingly great. Dark_Swordmaster fucked around with this message at 19:43 on Dec 30, 2016 |

How is the Steam version of Resident Evil 4? All I want it to do is run well on my machine and let me use a controller with controller prompts.

Can someone give me an overview of what the gameplay is like in both Death Road to Canada and Sunless Sea ? Also, is there a way to win Sunless Sea? Or is it mostly just trying to survive as long as possible?

NRVNQSR posted:I think you've played most of the good ones already, but if you really want to dig deep on that genre you could consider Magrunner: Dark Pulse, The Ball, Qbeh-1: The Atlas Cube, Q.U.B.E, Quantum Conundrum and possibly MirrorMoon EP? I don't feel like I can actively recommend any of those games but none of them are completely terrible. There's also Magnetic: Cage Closed which I've never found time to try. Thanks for this list! I grabbed Q.U.B.E, the rest look a bit jokey for me but I may come back to them in a pinch. And yea I've recently played portal 1/2, the talos principle and the witness so I'm sort of digging past the big hits at this point.

Jagwires posted:Can someone give me an overview of what the gameplay is like in both Death Road to Canada and Sunless Sea ? Death Road to Canada is Oregon Trail essentially, with many more random events and top down action pieces when you visit locations and an extremely goofy, wonderful sense of humor. Sunless Sea is...different. The game has amazing atmosphere but also requires a ton of patience to really shine. Do not get stuck in the trading trap, you get rewarded far more for venturing out into the unknown and discovering stuff than just hauling from port to port. As far as I know there's no real ending, just a various number of stories and events you can encounter on each run. The game ends when your character retires (and passes on some items to the next if you wish) or dies.

I think the last game I'm going to get is Necropolis to play coop. Before I do though, I read a review that said apparently coop will sometimes just wipe characters if you lose connectivity since it's all saved on the host's side. Any input on how legitimate/significant of an issue this is?

Anyway, am I a trash baby contributing to the glut of RPGMaker trash if I pick up RPGMaker for $40? I'd like to mess around but I'm not sure what the learning curve is like, or if I should just learn how to code from youtube videos for free instead?

Dr. Angela Ziegler posted:Please do not buy Homefront it is very bad and not good at all. But if I got through the older Homefront how worse can this one be? I honestly felt like it's just not that inspired instead of outright bad, but I'm willing to hear you guys out since I haven't made any purchases yet. I was mainly expecting another okay shooter with an open world checklist to complete cause I'm empty and my life is devoid of meaning like that. Also could I just make a pastebin of my shooter library and ask for some suggestions? I really want more single player shooters but it's hard to get suggestions I haven't already heard before.

I'm itching for some more side scrolling / metroidvania kind of goodness. I apparently have a lot of them identified on my wishlist, so I thought I'd check in to see some opinions on: Shovel Knight Axiom Verge Headlander Shadow Complex Remastered Ori and the Blind Forest Strider Apotheon Salt and Sanctuary or any other good stuff that I've missed here. They all have pretty good reviews so I'll probably grab a couple, but if any are head and shoulders above the rest, I'll start there. I already have Guacamelee and Mark of the Ninja, and they're both fantastic, so any other suggestions in that vein would be appreciated.

Shovel knight is the best one on that list, but its not a metroidvania, so if you're looking for that I'd go with axiom verge or ori.

I really liked Strider, it was part of the first PS+ offerings for the PS4. It's a good bit of goofy fun. Haven't played Axiom Verge enough yet but the art style and music is great. I wonder if anyone here would consider Hyper Light Drifter a metroidvania or rather a zelda-like. Because if there's any cross over in interest I want to have any excuse to recommend Hyper Light Drifter to people, it's a great game.

Also, Salt and Sanctuary isn't like the others at all. It's literally 2D Dark Souls.

Smol posted:The Division yes or no? If yes, DLC yes or no? Do you like an endless diablo-like grind but with the chance of pubbies loving you over in the dark zone or when you have to group with them for daily/weekly missions? Don't get me wrong, I love that type of grind, but it's not for everyone. And Dark Zone can put people off instantly, and it's been awhile since I've played and I'm not sure how the game has improved with the DLC and if there is still a huge hacker problem on PC.

Smol posted:The Division yes or no? If yes, DLC yes or no? Base game is pretty good now. I'd hold off on the DLC for now. and the Dark Zone is pretty worthless now with the ability to adjust in game difficulty ala Diablo. You get better loot outside of it.

Please don't EVER give Scourge of War your money. Do not reward the lazy, bad, and offensive developers of the genre. Ultimate General is good and getting better. Scourge of War is okay and often bad.

I found Axiom Verge bland and ugly, myself. For Metroidvanias I can speak for Pharaoh Rebirth, Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, and Ori. They're all far more colorful and interesting. Odallus is also sort of one.
