That music video at the end of Blops2 was silly yet enjoyable at the same time. My favorite in-game concert is hands down in Sacred 2. Blind Guardian rocking out to a hall full of ogres and grunts was so drat  https://youtu.be/JyfE55c_ZjI

Decided to pick up Frostpunk. More of a weird apocalyptic city building/survival game than turn based strategy, but playing Cities that came free w/ PS+ got me hankering for that type of thing as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mh8RGCP8MeY

Yeah it was really low budget and released at $40 but good in spite of it thanks to fox engine and people who worked on previous Metal Gear games

If you need a washed-up American comedian to tell you Slenderman is boring then I think you're beyond help. e: My experience with horror games (but applies to all games really): too often when something really bad is happening you, the player, know exactly what to do about it, but the player character dies anyway because it's not the in-game situation that's fighting you but the controls. That's not horror - that's a literal literal nightmare. ee: It's why I've given up on The Witness twice now. eee: no wait sorry The Witness is more "I figured out the way to solve these puzzles and now I'm expected to actually DO it. This sucks." 3D Megadoodoo fucked around with this message at 00:37 on May 10, 2020 |

Almost up to Bill's Safehouse in The Last of Us Remastered, it seems better than I remembered but I still hate stealth mechanics. I want to pew pew not pay attention to pathing npcs. That being said, this is improved for my experience playing for the first time with a XIM4, I can't do poo poo for headshots on a controller. No Spoilers.

Aiming gets easier towards the middle though as Joel gets addicted to pills.

Something just feels right about using the PS 20th anniversary theme and having the a folder that includes; FF7R, REmake2, and PaRappa remastered. or maybe I need to start playing new franchises

Pillars of Eternity 2 with all the DLC and updates (including turn based mode, all the optional challenges etc) is on sale for $40 That's an insanely good deal, it's a great port (runs better than on my laptop) with good controls etc. Buy it because nobody did

I should get back to that, I have been enjoying playing it with a gamepad and the turn-based system makes a lot more sense to me than the RTWP of POE1

I was in the mood for an FPS so I've been playing Destiny 2 since forever ago I bought Forsaken for like $15 in a fugue state and I heard that was the good one? I wasn't planning on doing much other than the campaigns and I figure after I'm done that's 100 GB of HDD space freed up. So I replayed the normal campaign, which is decent and probably the closest thing to playing Halo I've felt since I was in high school, then I played the two little expansions which were about 3 hours apiece and they were fine then I was like alright, here we go, Forsaken is the thing that everyone said turned it all around and made Destiny 2 great. ...except I forgot what that means for MMO players, and after the very first (admittedly great) mission the campaign is gated by mandatory grinding checklist bounties, and then you have to kill ten bosses, each with a gimmick and none of them with a fun gimmick. I'm so ready for it to be over but it just never ends. Just let me take revenge for Nathan Fillion so I can never play you again, I wouldn't even know what Destiny was if that wasn't the only model on sale when I bought my PS4 five years ago

I never ever got the Destiny 2 appeal. It's so boring. Like, literally shooting the same enemy for ten minutes.

It's fun with friends just tooling around doing missions and the multiplayer is also alright with a premade. It's a fun game to just spend some time playing but yeah once I hit max level I fell off it. A few dudes I know still play regularly and enjoy it. It's controls nicely as well, but it's no Titanfall.

If you ripped away all of the arpg bullshit from destiny and made it a normal shooter campaign it might be alright. If nothing else it’s gorgeous and the core mechanics are solid. But it’s just ridiculously goddamn boring because they structured it around a pointless loot system to try and bait people into playing it forever. I tried to get into it recently and earned a reputation of just randomly falling asleep while playing. Which is something I normally never do in games.

ZZZorcerer posted:So... having finished FF7R I gotta choose my next game, life is a bit hard now so maybe something uplifting ? Trials of Mana, the other real good Square-Enix remake that just came out in the shadow of FF7R, is fun and has the tone of a saturday morning cartoon (granted: about evil nemeses taking over the world) It doesn't have FF7R's budget and isn't as evolved of a game as FF7R but it remarkably achieves a lot of the same things

I'm pretty deep into FF7R and beat ToM fairly recently. I completely agree with describing the tone like a Saturday morning cartoon. There is a lot less story than FF7R, but I think the combat is more fun in Trials of Mana.

Yeah its annoying because with both 1+2 you can see the good game underneath, but there is so much bullshit thrown in for the loot grind that it feels designed to burn out everyone but the biggest whales. And because the loot is random I'll find an amazing pulse rifle or something only to have a lovely revolver replace it five minutes later, and then somehow not get anything better than that revolver for the next five hours. I assume it's made them ungodly amounts of money though so someone out there must be loving that poo poo

Everyone says "The shooting in Destiny FEELS SO GOOD" but I wonder if that comes from playing on a gamepad and getting rumble and having auto-aim I guess, I played it on the PC with MKB and it was fine but w/e

I think it's a sound thing? Lots of people say the shooting in Rage felt good, too, and I just remember all of the guns feeling weirdly puny, like multiple headshots to unarmored dudes to take them down.

Has anyone played ADR1FT? Looking for a game with a lot of wow moments and some atmosphere but I don't want it to be 2 hrs of puzzles before I get a sweet set piece. Looking for something to play while high tonight tbh. It's 7.50AUD right now on PSN.
