What, people expect actual gameplay changes from remaster editions?

When has that even been a thing in the recent past?

Not that I’m expecting anything even slightly on that level, I’ll be shocked if it’s more than just improved graphics and maybe stable 60fps if we’re lucky

You can wage combat with other people/animals/dragons, by throwing weaponized poo poo at them very hard and that poo poo will also collide into other objects going at mach 10 to protect you from harm. Furthermore, because of elemental resistances, it may be better to use poo poo as a weapon than swords that create floods.

What he said. AOE 2 doubled as a remaster and the next expansion

C&C did use the old code, which is why your own harvesters can still be your greatest enemy, but they are still doing changes. So Remasters CAN have new stuff, it just depends on the company.

Does Code Vein have flashy fast movements and allow me to dodge cancel or is it like dark souls where a GTA protag starts using a sword, with all the concrete that entails?

Essentially the latter. Playing Marvelous' other game, God Eater 3, it is an extreme contrast.

It tends more to the latter, but it's overall faster. The devs that made Code Vein also made the God Eater series, so if you're familiar with those games, you can probably spot the influences. The game is very much not a Devil May Cry style spectacle brawler, though.

Any recommendations for Terminator: Resistance? I consider Terminator 2 to be one of the best movies of all time, and have disregarded every single sequel after that. Does this game do better with the source material than the sequels is what i'm asking basically.


If you like the first two terminators you’ll love it, it really feels like the movies in a lot of ways. Terminators are properly threatening and you’re scavenging and desperate. It’s a bit janky but if you like classic Terminator I can not recommend it enough.

I think it was ME2 criticism where I first saw the quote "what exactly about an inventory management system makes it a good role playing game?" when people argued it was a worse game for dropping the inventory UI from ME1.

Just got to a mission in Desperados III where one of your characters wakes up after a massive bender with no idea where he or the others could be, he has a price on his head for loving the sheriff's wife, and he's misplaced his usual bear trap so he takes a rake as a replacement. Game Good :clint:

Depends on your build, of course, but assuming you're using a quick mobility build with lighter weapons, then yes, it can be quite fast and cancellable. Though, obviously, that depends on your frame of reference: if you mean as fast as Hades combat with nano-second dodges and cancels, then no, but if you mean as fast as Bloodborne combat which is a bit lighter than Dark Souls, then yes.

Here's someone using a quick mobility build for bosses, maybe check out some of the early less-spoilery fights to get an impression https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVyAAjB_-_E

There are also some skills that will let you upgrade to quick-dash on medium builds, so you're not limited to the just the lightest builds as long as you maintain your resources so you can keep the boost active. If I remember correctly I used a giant claymore and quick-dash for most of the second half of the game.

The quickdash in Code Vein is pretty much literally the Old Hunter Bone dash from Bloodborne, so yeah, the game does get at least that fast.

I dislike Mortal Shell, but Code Vein is fairly competent. The level design is utter garbage, though, to the point where one of them is so oversized and confusing to navigate that I literally gave up on the game when I couldn't find out how to actually get to next boss. That's something you'll need to learn to tolerate if you want to get very far in it.

According to this Reddit thread it basically works like purchasing a year's worth of vouchers for monthly bundles in bulk. You start with twelve and use one every month. If you skip one, you will simply not use that month's bundle credit, so you basically get an extra month to pick from.
