Quantum of Phallus posted:Playing Infinite Warfare again. It's amazing. Fans of Titanfall 2 will love it. I played it when it was up on PS+ after playing a LOT of TF2 and my opinion of Infinite Warfare is it's complete poo poo in comparison. It's probably a decent FPS but the way it controls vs TF2 is badddddddddd. I was so used to just flying around levels with gay abandon that playing IW just felt dull. DrNutt posted:Eh I liked a lot of the movie suits, all the MCU ones were pretty good. I also liked the spider armor mk 4 and the classic suit is a nice "realistic" version of the comic suit. All of the suits look great (except Raimi), they've been very lovingly modelled but I just don't like the designs of the vast majority of them. They're all kinda the same thing for the most part, the shiny ones in particular. I will admit to spending time as both 2099 and Scarlet Spider though as those were both around the time when I was reading Spider-Man comics.

One thing they hopefully improve upon in the sequel is having clothing that isn't tight against the body and can move independently. Other than one little strip of bandana on the Cyborg Spider-Man costume they weren't able to do stuff like the 2099 tattered web cape or the long Noir trench coat.

VERY spoilery stuff. Wow, it's like the Half-Life 2 hack all over again. loving wild that ND went all out delaying it over and over and basically cooked up a nearly unfixable situation for themselves. CharlieFoxtrot posted:They went into hyper-crunch mode to the point that Schreier could write another article about it, then sent everyone to work from home for an extended period of time with no release date in sight. That game is going to be the death of their studio, and all because of too much crunch. Maybe instead of firing Hennig and doubling down on lovely practices they should've listened to their loving staff. What a loving disaster.

Don't have an opinion on CoD one way or the other, but EVERY fps controls bad when compared to Titanfall 2.

I enjoyed Infinite Warfare because it's removed enough from contemporary situations to feel less gross and it basically nails the style/tone of Battlestar Galactica: The Game. The first time you go to warp owned. Also realizing at the end that basically the entire campaign takes place in real time in one day lol

Yeah not quite sure what they expected after having a huge crunch period, and a delay, which made ND do even more crunch, then send everyone to work from home because of COVID, then tell them they're delaying their work indefinitely.

I'm not going to read the spoilers but I also felt like tlou was a very complete story and that ND could stand to tackle something else. I think they'd be able to make a really good low fantasy game. Their environments and pacing are awesome imo and I'd love to see them go a bit crazy. I suppose uncharted has low fantasy elements, but I'm thinking more pervasive.

i do want misery porn, and the first tlou was great misery porn! it presented an unflinchingly pessimistic view of humanity where even our most virtuous qualities merely hasten our inevitable and well-deserved annihilation! the picture i'm getting from the sequel's spoilers, to put it lightly, does not measure up

Man, this has not been the best year for sequels. Doom E comes along with about 5 games of acquired loot that you got off screen and a dumb story and not TLOU2's following right behind you with bad angry frown zombie hate story after everyone gets nuked by these mutant quadruped mushroom monsters.

il serpente cosmico posted:I think I've reached the point where I think UC2 is the only good one. 4 has OK but I remember being really ready for it to be over with like half-way through. As much as I enjoyed the story and character development, I just got so sick of the paint by numbers of actually playing the game. I agree. I don't find 1-3 to be actual good as games because the combat is terrible, but I enjoyed them on the easiest of easy modes because they are beautiful games, and I am impressed by the set pieces and what I assume are very clever technical tricks going on behind the scenes. I beat 4 recently, and it was the only one where I found the combat respectable enough that I could play the game on normal difficulty. It does still need some kind of actual "gameplay" though.

I really do like the whole "think on your feet" aspect about the combat at times, but other times I think the combat is just a bit too much. Like there is no need to flood rooms with waves of guys.

Last of Us's gameplay is stronger than Uncharted 4's imo, I put in many hours into Factions but bounced off U4's pretty quickly. Though on the topic we're on now, I should have seen LOU selling "Execution Animation DLC" as a red flag

TLOU was just too gross for me with the curb stomping poo poo and UC4 wasn't much good generally. I loves UC4 single player though. Swinging around and pinching dudes then running and gunning. Action hero stuff done pretty well.
