i had to click to do combat in DA:O and that's where i stopped playing, so that was about 5 minutes in its 2019, point and click should be for city builders and adventure games only

Wasnt dragon age origins a project that had been shelved for a really long time before they came back and finally completed it? I seem to remember press at the time talking about how it had always been on development backburner

The 7th Guest posted:what's the next trend I feel like singleplayer card games might only become more popular after Slay the Spire's success. Image & Flow is doing a card-based RPG, for one, and they're good at what they do so that'll probably just push the trend even more. Also someone's going to do something with Dota Auto Chess sooner or later.

i feel like Dead Cells will create some chasers as well, but that's because there already are 200 roguelites that get released every week

A big problem I have with a lot of modern RPGs is that even if they're not action games, they know they're not action games, I know they're not action games and yet they still feel the need to have action game controls. In Skyrim, whats the advantage of one click = one sword slash, for a game where every enemy will just go in front of you and trade blows. I dont think I ever learned anything in the Witcher besides light attack repeat with the occasional fire spell in a game that was still trying for a modern freeflowing combat system. Diablo was a series built on clicking around all the time. Managing big clunky inventories without pointing and clicking is hell. Mouses work well for placing spells and such, and to that end I dont know why they should control to far from like an RTS would.Barudak posted:RTWP is poo poo, was poo poo, and will forever be poo poo.

I had no idea Slay the Spire was doing very well, that's a cool surprise. It's fun as heck. Now where's my Switch Pokemon TCG with a single player campaign. The game boy ones were surprisingly fun

The 7th Guest posted:yeah, but I think that's mitigated by having active control over your character I only consider a game giving you active control over your character if you can physically evade attacks in game space. FF12 and Dage are both the worst offenders of this imo, where they let you move freely but most skills and autoattacks hit instantly, check vs evade, and don't give a poo poo where you're standing. Secret of Mana gives you more active control over your character because at least you can stand outside of the enemies' attack hitboxes and dodge it; FF12 and Dage will both hit you from offscreen, up a ledge, through a wall loving whatever it wants. Trash system.

Bravely Default does not pull anything that bad in its second half but it is a game where at a certain point the game assumes youve mastered whats available to you and broken it as hard as you can because it is too.

i'm basically just buying some poo poo from amazon and seeing what's on sale. i needed to get my cart to a certain amount to ship (otc medication) so I added xenoblade 2 torna, which.. i haven't played the original xeno2 but this is a prequel so i'm not worried about that i saw yokai watch at $19.. but idk if i wanna bite. i played a demo of it a few years ago and thought the combat was just kinda weird

Heads up, while Torna is a prequel its basically cut story content that would have gone in the game at around the 60% mark and as such will make playing the main game story a little weird since the story assumes you dont know these characters or their relationships. It also is better in every single way from QoL to combat so theres no good reason to ever fire up Xenoblade 2 afterwards.

To explain my thoughts on Anthem, let me make a comparison. I think Terminator 1 is a vastly superior movie to any other film in the series, and that it is leaps and bounds a better movie than Terminator 2: Judgement Day. I loving love and adore Mass Effect 2 and honestly, I think it's a better game than Mass Effect 1 - however, however, I think it is the Terminator 2 of Bioware. You see the roots of everything that has brought Bioware down in ME2. And I mean, come on. Just look at this loving launch trailer. How can you not get excited for this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjOEmHEd2XM The Star Wars MMO TOR was godawful. DA2 was a loving shitshow of repetitive content. ME3 loving killed an entire fanbase by refusing to actually deliver on an ending that was almost a decade in the making. DAI was a loving achievement in undeniably lovely single-player MMO game design that should have killed the name Bioware forever. And then ME:A happened. In which they loving killed Mass Effect, forever. I could loving do an 8 hour lecture on Dragon Age: Inquisition and why it's the worst game of a generation, on a sheer budget/talent to end product ratio. It's honestly awe-inspiring just how loving awful every. single. aspect. is - they fail on every single loving thing they attempt. The worst, honestly, was the user experience - most notably with the war table and the crafting tables. Well, not including the "urgh, punching down arseholes" and the awful transphobic comment from the same loving character just a few hours apart with zero comment from the P.C. - every single loving Dragon Age has had a single awful jab at trans people, for no loving reason. And yet Bioware offers up their woke romance options with every new game as a feature to advertise. And now with Anthem, Bioware has ran far the gently caress away from any sort of story thread worth getting invested in. I mean, even Dragon Age 2 had a neat Blur trailer. Sure, Anthem has Iron Man suits, but... it's in the same loving tight empty corridors of every other loving single player MMO Bioware game that has totally eaten poo poo. And then you go to the first person "story space" only to... see no loving story worth paying attention to? I mean, goddamn. It's clear that Bioware, for whatever reason, is never going to go back to those days of creating an exciting single-player RPG with strong story or characters. It's a dead studio and instead of EA killing them outright, they've forced us to watch Bioware's slow, agonizing death, over the better part of the past decade.

Is there any other choice based game that rewards picking the apparently worst choices as much as Until Dawn does? I mean the overall plot doesn't change much but if you pick the "good" things you get a categorically vastly more boring game than if you pick all the "stupid teenagers in a horror movie" ones. You miss out on sooo many brief moments if you don't rp every character as an idiotic rear end in a top hat. I was even gonna say "aside from Hayden Panettiere" but then I remembered she has rear end in a top hat choices that end up hilarious too

I wouldn’t say Mass Effect 3 rewards poor choices, but the game is a lot more interesting when you take the fuckup decisions that get people killed. Tali committing suicide at the end of Rannoch is the craziest scene in the entire trilogy, but most people never see it because they make peace with the Geth. Boring!
