I wish we'd gotten a remaster or remake or whatever for Sly Cooper and all the R&C games. It's such a shame that they're all locked on PSNow.

Am I the only one who wants Fall Guys season 2 to consist entirely of the plinko game that obviously happens when you lose and am already tired of waiting for the gamble? Do you think you're cute, teasing this poo poo? My rejected corpse shall bounce through pegs and I will be rewarded maybe. Make it happen.

Maybe just more music.

You tell me I didn't build that?

I'll have you know I worked my fingers to the bone to get where I am today.
I gave Fall Guys a shot and I just can't get into it, it doesn't feel good to play. It looks like fun, and seems like a really good alternative to your standard shootmans battle royale game. And I mean I get that it's not Ninja Warrior, it's Takeshi's Castle. It's not a showcase of skill, it's a series of dumb minigames with no real pressure or expectations. But it feels really loose and floaty to me, it doesn't feel like I have any control, which is pretty much the worst thing a platforming game can do. Jumping and diving doesn't seem responsive enough. Even walking around and turning feels off to me. Anyone else get that feeling, is it any better on PC?

The game with the revolving cylindrical platform where you have to skip between the segments, dodge obstacles and not fall through the holes, should not be a difficult game. But I played three different rounds and failed so quickly in each of them, I didn't even end up trapped or knocked off by players, I just walked off each time because I couldn't be where I wanted to be. I don't know if there's like a delay, or something in the physics that I just need to get used to, but I can't get more than a couple rounds in because of how it feels to play.

I just want them to drop Perfect Match and Seesaw from the lineup. Perfect Match does nothing but waste everyone's time, and Seesaw is just miserable watching everyone get bottlenecked at every step. Let alone if you respawn in the wrong spawnpoint while everyone else gets to progress.

The point is that the music is bad. The game needs better, more variant music. It'll fix so many problems.

Nioh is a lot of things but janky it is not. It's one of the best combat systems in Soulslikes, if not the best. The game is also designed to run at 60 fps on base consoles.

I agree. It's a tight game and the combat stuff it borrows from Ninja Gaiden slides in well.

Actually this was my biggest issue with Nioh 1, not letting you use controls the same as Souls.

That's kind of the fun of it. It's fairly low pressure but just high enough that you can get into it without it ever being too frustrating, at least I can. It's a nice break if you play sweaty rear end MP shooters a lot. There is some degree of skill though. I'm not going to pretend the ceiling is super high but we all do pretty well consistently but maybe zoomers are just terrible at platformers idk. Theres honestly probably a lot of literal 4 year olds playing tbh lol.

This I don't agree with. I think it feels good although it might take a few rounds to get used to the feel but the controls are very solid. The netcode on the other hand...

Man I'm so glad I don't have this problem. I mainly play twitchy action games on the face buttons though so I find the souls trigger attacks are the ones I need to adapt to when I pick up a from game.

E: it has an absolute shitload of buttons which I like but yeah it's probably be super irritating to try and come at with no warning

The funny thing is that you can totally custom map all of the buttons in Nioh 2 except O for some inexplicable reason. And I decided I didn't really care about them loving around with the Souls controls but the one thing I could not get past was using X for dodge and it was the one single thing I couldn't change.

I find custom mapping Nioh fucks you up for stances and stuff a bit because the three make sense on the face while holding a trigger. No idea how you'd remap that to feel good.

I'm sorry but this one of the stupidest things I have ever seen someone get worked up over. If pre-teen quality user made jokes that suggest a character with huge boobs, in fact has huge boobs makes you want to stab people, it's probably time to see a therapist or something.
