Slime posted:Roxas would also be lagging along with the simulation so really it doesn't matter how slowly each frame happens, from his point of view it's going to be happening in real-time. If the real world started moving at 3 FPS you wouldn't notice, because your perception and thinking speed would also be slowed the same amount. You clearly haven't tried edibles.

I can't decide if the townsfolk or my Minions in Overlord II are my favorite thing about this game. The NPC's have a TON of funny lines for both the Destruction and Domination lines, and the Minions have so much character now. I could not stop smiling after they got into Legionnaire disguises and started whistling as we marched.  Also, for having very rudimentary physics, the boats in this game control surprisingly well!

These include a gnome hat complete with fake nose, a yeti's intact head, and even entire dead peacocks.

One thing I like with Prey is it doesn't over-rely on Jump Scares, but it does do one or two hidden away just for what's clearly the fun of making one. Test the Looking Glass Screen by tapping here... here... here... BLAARRGGHPHANTOM!! Oh, and now an actual one's coming along, have fun sucker . I also appreciate the fun little surprise when you go up in the Lobby Elevator. "Why's the power going out in the lift?... the lights have gone out and I hear a phantom...Crap."

Something in Viking: Battle for Asgard that I'd forgotten about that I liked, is that the completed areas count as completed (they turn blue) not just when everything is done, but when every part of that quest possible on that island is done, so the arena doesn't stay red just because you haven't learned all the moves yet - it turns blue when you have learned all the moves that the first island gives you even though you can see the rest of the list. It's a nice way of saying "OK, you can move on now. You should be good to beat the island, so good luck!  " It keeps the player from obsessing over it, let's them know that they can forget about it for a bit and it's generally a nice Quality Of Life thing. I also like the voice acting, because all the NPCs make an effort to sound like they at least have a vaguely nordic accent which is cute.

I'm replaying Medal of Honor: Airborne and I really like how the ammo is handled. Instead of picking up ammo for a specific gun you pick up ammo for smgs or rifles. This allows you to run any mix of weapons without having to worry about ammo types.

I like that Uncharted 3 pretty much showed Nathan Drake was raised by Bruce Campbell. And Sully's entrance in Uncharted 4 is appropriately pimp

FFXV Prompto has the best lines, either when he's singing "I want to ride my chocobo all day" or The final fantasy X (memory is shady on that) victory theme whenever they successfully come out of a fight. I'm only on chapter 7 or so, so I hope nothing happens to that little blonde-haired-poor-boy-done-good.

I thought each game had a different victory theme, but they all start with the same fanfare. I know IV is different from VII, at least. I can't remember most of the others, though.

That picture sets an unrealistic standard of people living in Montana. There are way too many of them, all of the men appear to have used haircare products recently, there are no land vehicles present going 90+mph, and I don't see any piles of Natural Light/Big Sky IPA cans.

I'm totally okay with a Far Cry game taking place in the rural US. I probably would've gone with Appalachia but hey, Montana's good. e: Unrelated, but I'm replaying the new Wolfenstein games and I've never noticed that in the opening cinematic for both The New Order and The Old Blood, GET PSYCHED! appears for like 3 frames before it starts. Cute. RyokoTK has a new favorite as of 18:54 on May 24, 2017 |

I wish they'd stuck with the original idea of Jason Brody being the protagonist in 4, then doing that for every game. Each time he gets more ludicrously overpowered, and frustrated at how any holiday he takes turns into a war. Far Cry 10 has Jason nipping to the shops for a pint of milk only to be embroiled in World War 3. He starts out invulnerable and able to fly, by the end he turns into a ball of pure thought energy and leaves to start the next big bang.

I really hope its not just Far Cry 3: The Third Time (I guess Primal was a little different? Haven't played it yet) For content, I liked how the use of different weapons to kill animals in FC4 gave you different levels of pelt loot. Highest return for using a knife or arrows (2 pelts from one kill + bait), basic return from using guns (1 pelt), and using explosives or fire would get you just a worthless (for crafting purposes, anyway) wrecked pelt.

To make up for my recent bitching about Mad Max, I got into the Magnum Opus through the passenger door and Chum said "Have you no remembrance of where the steering wheel is located? It cannot be alien to one sent by the Angel? Surely you test my faith?" I like that crazy little guy.

I like the Far Cry 3 format and I wouldn't mind it if FC5 was just FC3, The Third Time, but all I ask please is that we can skip cutscenes this time around.

I got to the Madagascar level in Uncharted 4. The huge driving segment up to the volcano was a cool hub area. You could drive straight to the objective or explore little sites and pick up treasure along the way while your boys trade stories. Stealth got a huge improvement. Still kinda clunky and simple, but I appreciate the game offering choices to every encounter. Your buddies will take guys out too if they're close enough.
