Did anybody say Horizon Zero Dawn is completely over-rated yet? Because I couldn't find the desire to continue after a few hours, brought it back to Redbox, and will be happy if I never play it again. I don't get the hype.

Dead Rising 2 was actually mostly bad and tried to copy the goofy tone of the first game and failed miserably. The protagonist was unlikable, the characters were bland, and all the psychopaths just felt weirdly mean spirited instead of goofy-while-also-horrific. The crafting system was cool I guess.

While the sound design and the visuals are cool it plays exactly like Far Cry. I'm not sure why people bark GOTY when it gets mentioned. Like it is cool but not some ground breaking game.

Someone mentioned it before but the time limit aspect of dead rising is really the worst thing. Here's a cool open world sandbox of sorts for you to explore and find all kinds of cool ways to mow down zombies. By the way, you aren't allowed to enjoy it too long. Why? Can someone play devils advocate and explain why that's a smart decision?

It was designed by a company who made games for the arcade which are designed to eat your quarters and never let you relax Dead Rising had a lot of hidden overpowered weapons near the start of the game, a katana just on a ledge you could fall off and kill yourself, an uzi on top of another hidden ledge. It seemed designed from the ground up to be replayed constantly.

Oblivion was better than Skyrim for the simple fact of arrow mechanics. In Oblivion if you were good enough you could hit a monster with a sneak attack further than the draw distance of the map, so some of the more annoying monsters you could hit 5+ times before they got up in your face. Skyrim if you were more than 10 feet away from something your arrows apparently just disappeared. You could see a bandit or someone standing around staring and line up perfect head shots which alerted them to your presence but did no damage. Which made the running backwards while firing phenomenon 10x worse than it was in oblivion, and since I exclusively use bows it ruined the entire game for me.

 Stealth Archery is way more fun than 36,000 sword whacks or magic that gives you a magical sword for 36,000 sword whacks. Magic is for gays. Unarmed is swords without the clangs.

for real though majoring in stealth archery and minoring in melee combat is the crux of having fun in skyrim

I went back and played skyrim with some major perk mods that affected combat and it made everything more all around fun, but in vanilla skyrim there really is just a lot of fun to be had being an rear end in a top hat arrow sniper. Especially when you can do cool stuff like trip oil traps. Probably unpopular but the most fun skyrim build is pure destruction/restoration mage and only wear robes. Fighting another mage before you get resistance spells and stuff was crazy fun, with fireballs flying back and forth and hitting poo poo on tables and making poo poo fly around the room and look like chaos after you're done.

Beastie posted:I bought it off Amazon for $40 and am about three hours in, maybe a bit more. While the sound design and the visuals are cool it plays exactly like Far Cry. A pair of scientists in disheveled lab coats argue furiously in front of a blackboard littered with crossed out phrases. "CLOWN ZOMBIES", an earlier suggestion, has a simple strikethru, but as the discussion continued the rejections got more and more violent. "SINGING PIRATES (?)" had scribbles all the way across it, while "NINJA MONKEYS" had been entirely erased. Finally, tentatively, the first scientist reaches out with a bit of chalk and slowly writes "DINOSAURS?" in part of the remaining space. The other scientist stops nervously tugging his hair as he has a revelation - he steps up to the chalkboard and prepends "ROBOT!" to his colleague's work. They look at each other, tears filling their weary eyes. They'd finally done it. They'd engineered the perfect nerd bait for 2017.

I liked the glitch in Skyrim where you could stack those medallions that lowered the shout cooldown time. You could stack 4 using a glitch during werewolf transformation, which would make your shout cooldown time 0. Run around screaming at everyone all the time

People who think stealth archer builds are inevitable are not creative enough to enjoy a role playing game where you can guide your own character's role. Which explains how people liked being railroaded into playing a sword (with a second slightly different colored sword) character in Witcher 3.

skyrim has very little that's fun to offer that plays differently. stealth archery is fun because it basically sidesteps combat without suspending pacing or immersion. Magic? it loving sucks. It looks cool, it's not fun to play. Melee is not fun. it tries so hard to be semi-tactile but it's so, so not that at all. You're left with archery, which is fun out of stealth and its fun using archery with the intent to engage in melee too, but being a sword and board or barbairan fucker with 2 swords is so unsatisfying as to be ridiculous because it tries so hard to be. Combat set aside, you're left then with a really bad chosen one story where your combat style and choices in game factor in zero percent, a civil war that somehow changes nothing substantial, has nothing to say about war and conflict like, the only time the story gets remotely interesting is incidentally when the dlc almost just straight up takes you to Morrowind. also i like Skyrim's advanced housebuilding simulator a lot. I hate Fallout 4's city building, but I like skyrim's house building. gently caress me right? anyway Skyrim's an okay game where the combat and story are a tedium around which you explore cool ruins. And the ruins are actually cool for once. up to then this hadn't happened since morrowind.

My first run through Skyrim I played a lizard man who used war hammers. In retrospect, the hammers were more interesting than the faster weapons.

Witcher lets you roleplay in that you make genuinely difficult decisions that matter to the people involved, not cartoonish "good or evil" crap. The fact that you always have a sword and magic and potions and poo poo is incidental. What does "I murder him with my axe" vs "I murder him with my fireball" have to do with roleplaying?

Because the game is designed to be replayed instead of to be played in one swath. Capcom didnt fall into the decision by accident, or do it that way because theyre idiots, they thought long and hard about why they were putting that time limit in the game.

Im one of those wierd fuckers and it sucks. Navigating menus FTW. Time limits in games and having time pressure put on you in general is FTW as well Anyone who complains about a timelimit existing is weak, and thier opinions arent worth considering

some time limits are good like if the game is designed around them like dead rising or majora's mask some time limits are bad if it's just an artificial gently caress you, like the original fallout just straight-up ending after X amount of days (which i wanna say was originally a hack preventing a crash which is why one of the later official(?) patches removed it?) and please do not make keiji inafune and/or capcom out to be some kind of game geniuses here because holy lol you have to be kidding, right?

I've never replayed any single-player game sooner than like 7-8 years later, so anything made for replay 'value' or NG+ is just worthless garbage imo. That's a disease for 80s kids and people who had like 3 whole videogames so were forced to replay them incessantly.

Im not, im saying the prevailing attitude is "cant these IDIOTS see hwo STUPID this is" when talking about something liek a time limit in dead rising or the wierd rear end multi in dark souls They make a purposeful decision, its jsut one you dont like. These ppl arent blind idiots doing thigns randomly and youre not a genius for going "Hey FROM, ever think about putting Matchmaking into your game  "
