Oddworld Inhabitants are working on an actual new game as well, aren't they? I swear I've watched videos of presentations about it.

I can't tell if the bosses in DQ Builders genuinely suck or if it's just the psychological effect of them destroying the town I've built up over the past few hours. I think the bird one definitely sucks though.

I watched the ballad of buster scruggs and man, I love coen brothers films, and I enjoyed that film, but I'm definitely feeling a lot of different emotions because of it. Definitely ended up going in a way different direction than I was initially expecting. Like, drat.

The format (very short stories that aren’t connected besides thematically and setting-wise) means it’s consistently surprising

Anthem looks like it's gonna get critically savaged and not even in a "flawed but shows promise" way like Destiny or The Division.  Bioware.

It's been something of a constant wet fart, even after the initial reveal. Like I can't legitimately remember anyone being actually excited for it.

More Switch disappointments... not only does it turn out you have to pay for Nintendo online stuff to play Tetris 99, but now I can't find how to change the temperature display in Breath of the Wild from farenheiht to celcius

No. But Bone Tomahawk's director has a known history of being a racist weirdo I think, so in that case at least it wasn't surprising. Edit: Wait Tomahawk was his first movie. So I guess it was the start of the trend. Either way it's a little worse coming from directors I actually like. A Sometimes Food fucked around with this message at 13:55 on Feb 19, 2019 |

I really wish it was a black lead. There was an unspoken subtext that there was a disproportionate number of black people who escaped from the Matrix because they were more likely to feel dissatisfaction with the system they were living in and try to find ways out

The big difference for me, based on the demo, is that Anthem isn't really interesting to play. The flying sucks, the guns felt anemic, the grenades/rockets were kind of just there. Whenever anyone got more than five feet away it threw me into a loading screen so I could catch up. Destiny actually feels really good to play in a way Anthem doesn't. Not that it was godawful or anything, but it's not anything I'm not waiting for a sale for.

Barudak posted:Thank you for this post because it convinced me to look up the plot and then to never watch this film because its so explicitly not for me its not even funny. Yeah I can totally understand. By the third vignette we started to realize that this wasn't going to continue being mostly comedy and, well, it was a thing. I enjoyed it, but it was most definitely a strange kind of enjoyment since the film, near as I can tell, was more or less just dealing with how swiftly death can come and how life just doesn't always pan out no matter what you try to do and sometimes bad things happen and we just wanna watch people go through these stories and watch their reactions as we try to relate their stories to our own and blah blah blah so on and so forth

Dragon Quest Builders would be better if enemies didn't do contact damage or your weapons were longer than a millimetre or the hit boxes weren't hosed up

Or I suppose it's also possible people were just more vigilant for them because this is BioWare and EA we're talking about, and BioWare's just coming off a high-profile gently caress-up with Andromeda. RBA Starblade posted:The big difference for me, based on the demo, is that Anthem isn't really interesting to play.

Destiny actually feels really good to play in a way Anthem doesn't. Not that it was godawful or anything, but it's not anything I'm not waiting for a sale for. The loading screen thing is absolutely an issue, though I'd argue that the flying and combat are actually pretty good. The flying sucked in the demo if you used keyboard/mouse but they really did improve it a ton for launch. Meanwhile, as for the grenades and rockets, they also made the mistake of giving you a pretty boring starting loadout in the demo and making it take hours to unlock a different javelin. That was maybe the biggest mistake in the demo that wasn't just a technical issue. They started you with an extremely straightforward set of abilities that made it look like everything you'd have would be generic shooter stuff but worse. As you find more gear, Ranger gets much more interesting and fun abilities, and the other three javelins have much cooler abilities right off the bat. They really should've let players pick their starting javelin in the demo and started us with a full selection of cool abilities to try. (The guns still don't feel even half as good as Destiny, though I will say that for some reason there's a "bullet impact sound" slider in the options and turning that all the way up does improve things. I don't know why that's an option in the first place because turning it to max makes the guns feel better just by virtue of making your bullets sound much heavier when they hit an enemy.) That said, I do want to say that I think the negative reviews are extremely fair. This game was not ready for prime time, its content is too threadbare to justify the number of load screens it makes you sit through, and it has some technical design decisions that just don't work at all and that I think need to be revised very quickly for this game to have any legs to stand on.

I swear I've watched videos of presentations about it. https://youtu.be/Wh_TfJUnLVg Yes, Lanning has basically never liked the fact that his grand saga got derailed and basically stopped 2/5 of the way into it so they're remaking the second game but with the scope of the third one. This is the same presentation where he shows off that not only are all the highest levels of villains in Oddworld "Cephalopod-based" which you can see when you play the games like especially the main baddie from Stranger's Wrath. But, BUT that the third highest rank on the pyramid of global power are "Globalist Bankers" and like...when you combine those two it feels, not the best combination...

Cold take here but I just started Spiderman and moving around in the game is a blast. There's probably a good effortpost about how movement in action games overall maybe kinda sucks but it's too much to unpack for a phone post.
