Yeah Chibisoma at least had amusing meltdowns to go with the miserable posting. Chibisoma's exit from the Gunnerkrigg thread is still one of the funniest things posted on this forum..

Been finishing up Watch Dogs 2 and wow this game gives you almost too many options in approaching missions. I had been cheesing most of the missions with drones and camera hacking, but the stealth/combat system from Watch Dogs 1 is still mainly intact. The stun gun is pretty strong when upgraded and the stun grenade launcher is *chef's kiss* How's the season pass for WD2? I've been waffling on buying it, but it seems like in general Ubisoft's season passes aren't great value?

Just heads up Do not buy Bounty Battle it is by far the worst fighting game I have ever played and it had the biggest potential and an incredible cast but wow is this bad. Hit boxes are broken Animation is stuttered Frame rate issues Stages are uninspired and bland It is an ugly game No online multiplayer AI is unbalanced in the way that even on hardest difficulty you can stun lock them into a corner (they also won’t jump to higher platforms on stages) No story mode Crashed on menu multiple times Thankfully steam allows refunds Only good thing about it was animated intro https://youtu.be/m2DEtVcSr20

I've been playing Divinity:OS2 again; only level 11 but I'm further along than the last time I tried playing. But almost every single quest I have, enemies are 2+ levels over me? I'm getting rocked trying to accomplish anything No idea where to go or how to fix this. Am I missing something obvious? Explored most of the map but there doesn't seem to be anything easier anywhere, so far.

The Graveyard and Blackpits area (east side of the map) are the easiest places to start. Wouldn't visit the Paladins until after doing both of those. And stay da gently caress away from that scarecrow.

I found this a pretty useful guide. There's also generally easier fights at the entrances to the areas so you almost always pick off an encounter or two. I also have no idea how you came to the idea that Blackpits are low-level. Just that oilrig fight, JFC. Still, one thing I've learned after a co-op playthrough: if all the fights are too hard for you, you're not abusing consumables enough.

I'm absolutely loving Mechanicus. The way cognition points work is incredibly cool, and being able to chain actions by utlizing them correctly is very satisfying. However, I'm dumbfounded there's no way to skip/speed animations. It's a bit annoying.

If you haven't had the chance to check out Cloud Gardens it is amazingly great and chill. + nice visuals + nice sound + very chill and engaging bonus: didn't hosed up simple physics like most games do. poo poo falls properly and more relevant STAYS at it's place. Even way over 15 years after realtime physics introductions, developers frequently gently caress up the basics. This game does not (as seen below on perfectly believable object placement). Go get it. https://i.imgur.com/mH0YRRj.mp4 haldolium fucked around with this message at 20:07 on Sep 13, 2020 |

All this Divinity OS1/2 chat really makes me want to play but I bounced so hard off D:OS1 that I kept going back to try and play it for several weeks and constantly getting wrecked in combat and could not remotely figure out what to do or find anything on the map.

I just started dos1 after bouncing off it hard the first time. Somehow it's fully voiced now which is cool. the game gave me a shovel early on. in this first town someone has buried landmines. They blew up an hour of unsaved progress. That was great.

They're super fun, but there are also a lot of situations that you can get into that feel like gigantic middle fingers. They're mostly kind of charming and funny when you can just quick load from five minutes ago, but it sucks poo poo when they actually cause you to lose progress. The biggest flaw with D:OS 1 and 2 is that neither game autosaves often enough.

It's not just a mobile game port, it's just a simple enough game to work on both, neither side is compromised other than maybe the text chat. Playing with randoms is probably hell, but playing with a group of friends is great.

El_Elegante posted:Hey, how much fun can I have playing The Division 1 today? You can have fun and actually there are people playing division 2 that can still be persuaded to play division 1, including me. You may be mostly on your own for leveling up depending on time zones and availability and such but if things work out it can happen for the end game at least. Depending on how much you’re into quasi-battle royales then the Survival mode can be good fun for a while too. Though mostly as a PVE thing these days.

Division 1 was recently free on Uplay, I picked it up at the opportunity as well. I bet you could find a lot of goons who grabbed it, might be worth asking in private games. This is so relaxing to watch. Seconding Cloud Gardens (again.) It's a great little game. At four dollars, you can do nothing wrong with it.

re: Division 1 as a single-player experience it owned, I loved exploring that environment and finding all the collectible story bits. It's probably better as a team thing but I got a good 20-30 hours of fun out of it.
