Samuringa posted:I very rarely replay games but notable exceptions are New Vegas and Alpha Protocol, both that I finished and immediatelly began another playthrough to try different routes and gameplay styles. Also Sleeping Dogs that doesn't have any of that but it's still great. Oh yeah, I've played (most of the way) through Sleeping Dogs like 4 or 5 times now. Aside from being fun as hell, the story/voice acting is choice.

I think I'm somewhere around the mid-twenties number of runs of VTMBloodlines. I don't think anything else even comes close for me.

I've replayed MGS 1-4 dozens of times each but the way Peace Walker/Phantom Pain are structured make me never want to replay them (even though I love them both)

There are a lot of games I really like that I have no desire to replay, but I do like to watch LPs of other people for their reactions during the most shocking + emotional scenes.

It's the same reason I'd never replay Witcher 3 or Persona; those games were excellent but they're like 60 to 70+ hour epics that I couldn't do again unless I was on a deserted island or something. Strangely though I'd replay Zelda again in like a year if only because I never even beat 2 of the 4 dungeons and never found stuff like Tarrytown before beating Ganon, either

Shorter games you can play over and over again are awesome. It's why I've beaten zero mission dozens of times

In the days before Youtube you had to beat Eternal Darkness three times to see the true ending which was just a 20-second cutscene with "you got played" voice-over narration.

I almost never replay games with a few notable exceptions. Alpha Protocol though I played through 4 times. There are so many games that tout how different choices can change your experience but Alpha Protocol loving went for it in a way no other game has as far as I'm concerned. Plus it's like 10 hours long so it lends itself well to multiple playthroughs. Some of these games that are like 100 hours long may have some things that can change but who the hell has the time to find out?

I think for a lot of choice-based narrative games, the knowledge that situations could have been resolved differently is more compelling than actually seeing them all play out. I'll probably never replay Until Dawn but I did have fun going to the wiki and reading up on all the possible permutations.

I'm still playing Mordheim and really into it. It's slow and stressful. Every turn feels like it counts. The early periods of fog of war are worrisome. The optional objectives are generally in direct contradiction to your main goal "rout the other team" because if you win before completing them you don't get the reward. This means you can ramp the difficulty up and down for yourself. Some missions I'm trying to keep the other team alive but contained so I can pick up the last collectible thing. This is risky because if I do it wrong I can incur long term injuries. Sometimes I'm on the knife edge of losing so I'm just trying to kill enough people to drop their morale before the finish off my valuable unit with a sliver of health. Before I said there is no strategy layer but now I'm more realizing that the game has put the strategy layer into the tactical layer and they are pushing and pulling one another. Also I went to do one of the story missions and it said it would be "Normal" and this was a lie that it told me and my whole squad got wiped. But a wipe in this game is not as brutal as a wipe in XCOM and the head of my order gave us a speech about getting back out there and trying again which was nice.

It's the whole "I'm not really a hero unless I had the option to be a villain" which is part of why it's so unsatisfying to find out that a decision you agonized over turns out to have not actually been all that significant and the person was going to die either way within a scene or two.

The saga of YouTube screwing creators to try to get a buck out of advertisers continues. You now need to enable ads to link to external sites (e.g. Patreon). https://twitter.com/innuendostudios/status/913418338507935744 I guess this is less of a problem when all your vids get tagged as advertiser-unfriendly by a robot anyway.

I like when you can read about a decision point and it remains impressive even once you know the underlying mechanics behind it. The rooftop scene in Life is Strange Ep. 2 is still impactful and tense even when you already know all the right answers because of the emotional stakes involved.

SWERY's new game will have Cat Edition and Dog Editionquote:The cat and dog versions of characters will have different abilities, meaning The Good Life will play differently. Naomi the cat can climb and explore small passages. Naomi the dog can dig or follow smells. The two versions’ online multiplayer will be compatible. When you visit the separate multiplayer world, you can scratch or leave cricket corpses for friends as a a cat or mark territory and scare sheep as a dog.

It's one of the few times in the game where your choice actually has meaningful, permanent consequences that aren't undone or made irrelevant by time travel fuckery later on (You also only have one shot at getting it right, which makes it even more impactful on the player).

There's actually quite a lot of variation among all the possible decision paths throughout Life is Strange, but it usually manifests in really subtle ways you wouldn't expect. Like for example you can get Max suspended from Blackwell, or make it from really easy to almost impossible to peacefully resolve the Frank confrontation.
