Ghost Leviathan posted:Turok Evolution strikes me as having all the ingredients of what woulda been a great shlocky game but it just all didn't work together. No there was a reason for this and that reason was that Acclaim ought to make some games with all these comic book licenses they've just bought so why not adapt the one about a Native American warrior named Turok who's lost in time fighting hyper intelligent dinosaurs?

I actually played through Dragon Quest. I don't remember which one it was but it was the most popular one because every Japanese person insisted that it was good. I don't remember a single thing about it. It wasn't even that long ago. Dragon Quest is a boring rear end series.

If you engage with new releases at all you kinda deserve to be disappointed. Especially if you are playing them on the back of other peoples hype. Its just people buying into marketing. Playing games later for cheaper outside of the hype bubble is a good thing.

If you really want the preorder bonus you can return the game if it sucks quote:Valve will, upon request via help.steampowered.com, issue a refund for any title that is requested within 14 days of purchase and has been played for less than 2 hours. Even if you fall outside of the refund rules we've described, you can submit a request and we'll take a look at it.

ME2 was the last game I bought on release until Fallout 4. I didn't even preorder FO4, I just didn't follow my "wait a year and buy it at 99.9975% discount" rule. And yeah just like you I should have kept to my principles. Never pay more than 20 dollars for a computer game.

FO4 isn't a bad game, it's just a bad fallout game. Its not a good game either, of course, unless compared directly to fo76

I assumed it'd be roughly to par with FO3. I was incorrect, but that was my train of thought. I got the PipBoy edition and everything  Took off 3 days of work, 6-8 hours in quit FO4 and spent the rest of my time off replaying NV.

i feel like the lines of preordering are much blurrier in the digital age, like i bought and paid for Dark Souls: Remastered, smash bros, and the Crash trilogy remaster for Switch the day before they came out so i could download and install them and be ready to play whenever they unlocked. i would not say i 'preordered' any of them (hell two of the games were remasters of games i already own and know i enjoy, and i was always hype for smash so that was day 1 regardless) but it's hazy does sekiro really not have any multiplayer stuff at all because i'm going into it completely blind... also the bloodstains in Nioh > bloodstains in BBSouls. seeing "oh, well a bunch of dudes died here" is a lot cooler/more helpful if you can immediately fight them and realize their gear was terribly suited to the fight or w/e

Also the two-hour limit is not a good time frame to figure out that a strategy game, RTS, or 4X is crap.

A lot of games have a vastly different feel to the first hour or so of the game, usually more overproduced and cinematic or whatever. Plus the appeal of a lot of games is in the endgame.

Most people never get to the end of most games, which is for the best because they are way too long and there's other stuff to do. Discussions of "endgame content" are a clear sign of a disordered mind.
