The pacing for the side quests is also really weird. I've been doing every quest I can find but the game still give me quests with enemies 15+ levels above me. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if it's just classic Yoko Taro loving with me.

More PS4 console design hate - whoever decided the back of the console needs to slant at an angle and have it overhang where the HDMI and network connectors are should be shot. No, I don't need to change cords that often, but when I do I can't just reach over like I can for every other TV-connected device ever, I have to turn the loving thing around and do it that way.

If it's way too hard, it's probably one that's best taken on during your second playthrough. Or go back to the first boss area, where the grinding is easy.

That's what that time is for. Well how the gently caress else am I supposed to pay for my microtransactions rear end in a top hat But in all seriousness both my old PS4 and PS4 pro have had issues where at least the PS4 would just at random decide to spit the disks out while beeping its little heart out and the Pro does this thing where if you haven't used it in a while the next time you try to turn it on it won't and you'll have to power cycle it to get it to work again

I find damage spikey enough on normal that it's not completely brain dead, even with a couple of defensive chips active. It's not really hard, but I can't just mindlessly mash buttons and expect to come out ahead unless I'm decently overlevelled. Hard not having lock-on seemed annoying and I'm pretty sure I played through the first game on hard and it just kind of sucked until it became irrelevant so I've never considered switching.

Planet Robobot: For a game all about this powerful robot suit, it sure doesn't use it enough for my tastes. Once you beat the game, you can do an arena mode. Cool. But there's no option to do the same in the robot. You can't do any boss rushes with the robot either, and there's not nearly enough bosses where you're using it either. Plus, despite that, the final boss is a like, shoot-em-up boss? It's kinda third person but you're fighting a ship and the boss is right in front of you and you just shoot it a bunch.

Finally buckled and got Fallout 3 on steam with the intention of modding and playing it. Jesus wept. Fallout 4 has spoiled me for ease of play, and Skyrim has spoiled me for ease of modding. After battling with the potato-faced bastard for hours, I got it to run acceptably, but it just feels so janky and bad. I wanted to play through it then get New Vegas (since everyone sucks NV's dick) but ugh. I guess it's just a case of adjusting to the controls...

food court bailiff posted:E: I feel like I should go into detail on why Morgana sucks when Teddie was great. As annoying as Teddie was, he was in the characters' corner from the start. He is nearly as lost and confused as they are in the TV world, and is completely oblivious to the ways of the real world. Morgana, on the other hand, is absolutely goddamn convinced that he knows everything about the Metaverse (despite never successfully stealing a Treasure before) and sure as poo poo doesn't let you forget it. Add to that the never-ending condescension during battles ("Skull, you're pathetic." "Panther, you've got to watch them!" Shut up, you loving cat, your damage output is awful) and it's just a really grating experience overall. I'm totally the opposite. Morgana is fine for me, Teddie is probably the most annoying fictional character, maybe only second to some of the more notable ones from Borderlands. But he seriously sucks and I couldn't finish P4 or P4g because I burned out having to deal with him. That being said, the P5 characters pretty much fit the same mold as the P4/P3 characters. I mean Ryuji is pretty much just Junpei and Kanji together. Makoto has some strong Mitsuru vibes.

Yeah Morgana is mostly chill and serious and Teddie had a lot less chill I grow to hate either when they don't shut their traps but overall Morgana is a chill rear end cat (minus making me go to sleep grrr)

I wanted to play through it then get New Vegas (since everyone sucks NV's dick) but ugh. I guess it's just a case of adjusting to the controls... Yeah, there's a pretty big difference between going from 4 to 3. I really like Fallout 3, but it definitely has problems, a lot of which got fine tuned for New Vegas mainly stuff like the plot, gameplay, and characters - though there are a few characters in the game that are pretty memorable though, most of them are just like - do this quest and never speak to me again or followers not really having that much of a personality (except dogmeat and Fawkes). You also really won't give a poo poo about the main antagonist either. I do find what 3 has over 4 and maybe New Vegas is that quests don't really feel as tedious (mainly due to having a lot less loading screens, especially compared to the Strip in New Vegas) and that I personally enjoyed the ruined city feel of 3 over the western vibe in new vegas because it hit closer to home for me. I really would recommend you get a mod that keeps followers essential though, making your dog immortal is one of the biggest boons new vegas brought to the table.

I use FO4 followers as meat shields in big fire fights so I'd end up with a trail of corpses otherwise.

Teddie was the best waifu. Also even with mods and whatever to fix the gameplay, I just can't go back to FO3 anymore, any time I've tried the writing in general still makes me groan and the gameplay itself is at it's worst, so I end up thinking why not just play NV again or screw around on 4 instead.

Action Tortoise posted:Koromaru is the best Persona mascot My P5 protagonist is named Koro Maru, as is my Persona tradition. While this isn't really dragging the game down, there's a cute bit in the Persona 5 Day Breakers animation that acted as a preview for the game where it's shown Morgana (the cat) has to basically articulate cat sounds because he really has a normal voice. So there's a bit where he just starts yelling "HISSS" at some bad guys so they don't catch on that he's not a normal cat. It's charming and a funny way to make Morgana more than a simple cat mascot. I guess they dropped that trait early on in the writing because it never comes up in the game. Actually, aside from when you initially meet Morgana (and in one very specific instance later on), Morgana being a cat is weirdly underutilized- the fact that you are carrying this cat with you literally all the time, having conversations and appearing to take orders from it like an anime Son-of-Sam is apparently perfectly normal.

One of the ways like half the cast show that they're supernaturally inclined is that they understand the cat talking and do something to indicate that yes they understand the cat.
