I’m gonna give the benefit of the doubt to Days Gone. Sony puts so much and effort money into these that I can’t believe it’ll be bad.

I'm sure Days Gone will be cool for people who like that kind of game but nothing about it really grabs me. If they replaced the lead with a chick w/bow then maybe we'd have something going on.

That isn't something from Sony. Also launched on PC aswell so not an exclusive either.

I like the idea of Days Gone. The newts being basically kids made me a bit squeamish to be honest. The hand to hand looks very rote, the ranged weapons look ok, the driving looks slow, even on the superbike you have at the start. I'm hoping they improve those things a bit before release. But I like the environment, and I'm interested. I also thought they spent some time on the lead character's face and whatnot. he was visibly reacting very well to things, I thought. Although I could do without another strict constitutionalist survivor ruling a compound.

After playing them I believe they're both too long and have bad or very repetitive gameplay, that isn't edgy.

No Mans Sky improved quite a bit over time. I mean its not amazing, but its a solid game in its own right, now.

Buy yakuza 0 because if you like it then good news there's a bunch more yakuza games to play And if you don't like it good news there's this pretty good game called nier automata that you can try instead

The Angara are supposed to have Afrikaaner accents. Why they did this is probably to induce a feeling of "English, but foreign-sounding to most people."

JBP posted:Neither they're both boring grinds with bad gameplay. I mean, i beat both games in 25 hours so they weren't a grind and i cried playing nier and laughed playing yakuza so they weren't boring. The gameplay wasn't exactly stellar for either which is why i eventually switched both games to easy and battered through them. 2 easy recommends though.

CrRoMa posted:Have you tried spending your time playing games you like instead? Yeah but I give most games a decent chance. I enjoyed Nier but very quickly wore out on route B and never went back. Yakuza didn't click and I felt like I was just running around streets and suffering through the combat. Persona was cool, like I rate the game, but it's just long and I got tired of it. It's not long games that bug me though because I can drop 100 hours on a crpg or whatever without breaking a sweat. I feel like a lot of games have too much "content". I didn't finish HZD because I would look at the ubimap and be like nah gently caress this. I just want super tight, 15-20 hour single player gaming probably.

Horizon Zero Dawn is about the same length as God of War all things considered. Maybe a little longer if you include the DLC.

I really need to start it again, put on blinkers and just play the main story. It's just the photo ops and all this other poo poo on the map and my eyes glaze over.

Its a fun game its just i get home from work and the compulsion to play it is zero and has been since the day after launch day. I've finally got a free weekend to put some time in but lately I've been really struggling to find 3rd person charachter orientated games exciting to play.

If minimap icons are severely triggering to you then HZD allows you to filter them. Most of the time they aren't even collectibles or things you have to do, just "this is what robots live here."

The map is kind of useless so I felt like I was just wandering into stuff and being like ok I'll have a chill here and look around. I also enjoyed the gameplay a lot. Maps covered in poo poo definitely trigger me.

Horizon is another one, i had a good time battering through on easy but plenty people here had an amazing time with the story and playing on higher difficulties. The older I'm getting the more satisfying it is just to cherry pick the bits i want from games.

To add to this don't even bother exploring much of the world till about 2/3rds of the way through the story (You'll get a pretty good idea when that is) because otherwise most of the stuff you'll stumble upon and explore will be empty because it can't trigger yet or they'll artificially block your path from proceeding.

Something like Bloodborne on the other hand will bring me back to play forever because the actual game part is just superb and so much fun. I think I keep going with potentially repetitive, content rich CRPGs because I own the character and I look forward to whatever dick move or good boy decision I get to make.

That's not really the case in Horizon. The only area you're outright blocked off from exploring once you cross Daytower is Sunfall. Everywhere else you can go. You can do all the cauldrons and hunting challenges before you even reach Meridian, if you really wanted. My advice would be to just follow the main storyline and stop to do whatever sidequests you like along the way, since the game eventually takes you to every corner of the map.

I don't think I've ever 100% an open world game. At the beginning I just gently caress around and do some side quests but when I start feeling bored I just beeline for the main story which (hopefully) is more interesting and isn't as long to finish. Most of the quests in HZD did not tie in any way to the main story or anything else really so I didn't feel like doing them. However, there is one exception. I did almost if not all of the side quests and activities in The Witcher 3 because it was just that good, my dream game. I still haven't gotten around to starting the DLC though because after 200 hours I was ready to finish the main game and take a break. Can't actually wait to get back to it later. Also, unrelated but I am playing through Shadow of the Colossus for the first time and the 5th colossus is pretty much perfect: music, animation, atmosphere. I am seriously impressed. History Comes Inside! posted:Buy yakuza 0 because if you like it then good news there's a bunch more yakuza games to play I like this advice so that's probably what I'm going for after finishing SOTC. I don't want to buy more games at once since I don't have time to play more at once anyway. So many good games left to play.
