Fire Emblem: Three Houses, every character has their own color scheme they wear with every outfit, more visible with some classes than others. Heading into the final pre-timeskip mission, for kicks I have a crop of five Swordmasters who together form a goddamn power rangers team: blue (Dimitri), green (Felix), orange (Leonie), black (Sylvain), and red (Manuela).

I've just done the penultimate level in Medievil, the Time Device. I liked how bizarre it was and hope the sequel gets equally weird as gently caress once I beat this game.

bony tony posted:There needs to be a Simon Stålenhag game. There's two of them! Tales from the Loop is your 'kids on bikes investigating weird 80s tech and robots' stuff. Then the sequel game, Things From The Flood, is about playing teenagers and is darker in tone (the kids can't die in TftL, for example). They're both full of the art, though gameplay-wise I've heard better things about the former than the latter.

While the Blue Lions and Black Eagle outfits are mostly variations on their team uniform/colours, Golden Deer instead decides post-timeskip to go maximum power rangers and they all split into different colours. Linking as a spoiler to a lovely crop but it's pretty funny the first time you see them gathered. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ECqsnYhWkAEZuz7?format=jpg&name=900x900

The first boss in Medievil 2 was way cooler than any in 1, at least how you fought him. Better than just spamming attack til it died. I also love the dismemberment mechanic, that's fun.

Playing Dragon Quest Builders 2 and I really appreciate the help from NPCs. Having someone help with the basic combat is a huge help, and having them automatically attack and gather whatever resources you’re getting (if I break down a tree for wood my buddy will find a nearby tree and do the same) is like a resource doubler. Plus the townsfolk automatically making food and tending to fields, as well as building off of blueprints, is great. I just finished the first island and already like it quite a bit more than the first game.

I just started playing Monster Hunter World yesterday, and I'm genuinely impressed by how good it is at teaching you its weapons. It doesn't even do that much, really; there's a training room with a few targets to wail on, a two line description of the weapon itself, and some on-screen button guides and example combos. It's actually less than 4U had, which is the last Monster Hunter game I played, which had you fight a sample boss and gave you a couple paragraphs of a guide. And yet it's so much better at giving you a feel for the actual moveset and how you're actually meant to play it. I've ended up loving the Insect Glaive, which is a weapon I'd usually never touch, just because the weapon introduction did so well at showing how it can play.

bewilderment posted:While the Blue Lions and Black Eagle outfits are mostly variations on their team uniform/colours, Golden Deer instead decides post-timeskip to go maximum power rangers and they all split into different colours. It fits the Deer, too, being a disparate collection of weirdos united only by being against everyone else. The Lions, on the other hand, not only almost all wear blue or teal, they visibly are all dressed for the cold climate of their home - every single one of them wears heavy clothing, typically a long coat or fur cloak. And the Eagles, being from the wealthiest and snottiest part of the world, all dress more fancifully and less practically than their peers. FETH is really good about the visual details and themes in that respect, enough so that I suspect some characters were kind of meant to be poached to other houses when their post-timeskip outfits adhere closely to another faction. Sylvain post timeskip wears red and black - Imperial colors, and he's a natural fit for Edelgard's crusade. Marianne, in turn, wears the colors of Faerghus and a similar style of heavy robe, fitting for someone whose family closely supports the Kingdom (and, in my opinion, has the most touching support line in the game - with Dimitri, which leads to her becoming Faerghus' queen).

I almost never go with the slow weapons in action games, but getting the chance to go to the next room, pick any weapon and give it a go for a few minutes and decide if I like the way it feels is such a great thing.

Getting the "Amazing, mission complete. See that right there is why you're the best boss, the one and only" VO in MGS V makes my brain give me all the good chemicals. Also the enemies sometimes assuming Quiet is a bloke is a nice touch, too. And DDog's stun animation is pretty good, as well.

DD is so good, there's probably some interesting psychological insight into why I keep giving him pats on the head months after our relationship level has been maxed out.

Medievil 2 doesn't get as much attention, which is a shame because Mechanically it feels more rich, even though I don't find the comedy as natural. Dan's new voice is too goofy. My god, speaking on Medievil 2, I just started playing a real copy, and there is a great touch in the first level. In the museum level, the boss is seen breaking through holes in the walls, and in last one you can see and get to the start of level 4, Kensington Tomb (as level 3 ends with returning to the museum through a different entrance). I never noticed there was something back there before, let alone something that neat. BioEnchanted has a new favorite as of 21:07 on Mar 11, 2020 |

Something I appreciate about Assassin's Creed Syndicate: Very few of the missions give out an extra reward for doing them undetected, so my brokebrain doesn't make me want to just reload when I'm spotted (like in DX:HR). Also I like that, unlike various other games with stealth, enemies don't have a long period where they've given on actively searching but are still on high alert. It feels like I can get quickly back into business after being spotted and hiding, instead of waiting ages for guards to settle down.

The Jacob missions are also all written as if you did it very visibly and sloppily, as Evie has to clean everything up at the beginning of the next chapter.

Something fun with Medievil 2 that I missed out on on the emulator, is that it has strong lighting, so the Tomb, which was fine to navigate without a torch on emulator, on the actual ps1 is dark as gently caress, forcing you to have the flaming torch equipped. However, you wouldn't have thought to get it out as a weapon if the game hadn't made you, so it's also teaching you that the flaming torch makes short work of the relatively tough anubis monsters, setting them alight and rendering them panicky idiots.

As it happens I play that way. If it's not immediately obvious how to get past undetected, with Evie I look round and think harder, with Jacob I go "gently caress it" and wade in.

I always appreciate when games do unusual settings. Like Medievil's setting is fairly fun but a little basic, it's a medieval village, they're everywhere, but I like Medievil 2's setting more because not a lot of games do the 1800s london occult scene. All I can think of that do it are Nightmare Creatures, Bloodborne, and Medievil 2, Maybe the Jeckyll and Hyde nes game at a stretch and I think one Assassin's Creed game may play with it too. It's otherwise underutilised. I like that Medievil 2 references a bunch of things from the time period too, like the Dan Hand power may be a lovecraft thing like Herbert West, the villain is the same kind of guy as Alistair Crowley, and you also have Frankenstein in building the body and the classic Freak Show level.

The other thing to keep in mind is that this isn't just a case of using the combat animations for enemy soldiers and stuff on fight club guys. You don't really fistfight in the game, they made them for this.
