anilEhilated posted:How is GTA V? Does it still allow for fun rampages and police chases in all sorts of vehicles? I say this with all seriousness, even if you ignore (or even enjoy) Rockstar’s writing, the single player for GTA5 is pretty bad for an open world game. The only heist mission that acts like a heist mission is the first one and the rest are just shootouts maybe with an incredibly obvious “choice” to get a slightly better outcome. Franklin, the only potentially interesting character, is completely sidelined by the halfway point in favor of Trevor/the developers yelling at you and Michael’s hilarious mid-life crisis antics. It feels like a quarter of the missions are driving across the map while listening to people talk and then driving back while people talk. You never feel like you have enough money to do random fun poo poo much less buy any of the map’s properties without some really dumb and unexplained meta game involving the in-game stock market (or maybe you could just buy the Convenient Time Saving Money Cards!). The cops are now actually effective for some reason so the second you get out of a vehicle at a higher star rating you’re already dead plus you lose health and armor way faster anyways. By the time it was over and I thought about it for a bit I honestly hated it.

The new EA play desktop only shows me as having 2 games. But Origin shows me having 6. Starting off great.

hemale in pain posted:does it work for anyone? everytime i try to install a game it just loads up EA Desktop and tells me to buy the game Edmond Dantes posted:Is that GoG Galaxy? EA Play titles are not showing up for me there. I just tested it and it works - I'm downloading Need for Speed Heat as I'm writing this. You have to link the Xbox Game Pass with the EA Desktop first (this can be done by clicking on the big EA banner in Xbox Game Pass and then following links from there). Once you're inside EA Desktop and you have an account set up (either a new one or your Origin account also works) you can install any game that has EA Play written in the corner. NOT EA Play PRO, NOT nothing, ONLY games with EA Play, you can filter for them. If you click on anything else EA will ask for money.

Also here are screenshots of all the games available from EA Play via Game Pass, there are far more titles (and some indie ones too) than initially shown:

Even considering Sega's renewed interest in porting stuff to the PC, getting the Nocturne remaster on Steam is really unexpected. I wonder if this helps the chances of SMTV on PC as well or if that's always been destined to begin its life as a Switch exclusive.

Speaking of unexpected ports, I wish Sony would give an actual release date for Days Gone already. I’m guessing 4/26, since that’ll be the two year mark for the PS4 launch, but I’d like an actual day.

rt4 posted:Might get EA game pass. I've been meaning to give FTL a try If you're not going to be playing games outside EA's app, you should probably get EA Play directly from EA themselves. It's only $5/month (or $30 for a whole year) while the full Xbox Game Pass is $10/month. And you get to launch the games through Origin, which is a lot less buggy than the new EA Desktop thing. You can't use Origin with the Xbox-connected EA Play which is quite dumb. EA Play is also on Steam, but that one has EA games only so it will not give you FTL.

You realise it launched without online, right? It's also not all that hostile, given it gives you so much poo poo in terms of raw assets over the course of the campaign. It's practically no different to GTA 4.

GTA 5 single player was always stingy with money. Though I remember that at launch it did NOT have an airliner falling from the sky every time you drove up to Michael's house. The cries of neglect of single player comes from the fact that NONE of the cool content from Online has been moved into single player, and the single player expansions that Rockstar claimed they worked on got dropped/transformed into Online content. Orv posted:The idea that they would backport the MP stuff to SP has always seemed completely nuts to me but I will admit them scrapping SP expansions in favor of making them MP content is a poo poo move. I'm not talking about the heists or poo poo, I'm talking about cars and stuff. How hard would it be to backport a car into single player too? ymgve fucked around with this message at 00:01 on Mar 20, 2021 |

I had way more fun playing GTA4 and could actually get into its story. NPCs interrupting you to go bowling or whatever was also way overblown.

GTA V is meh. Even outside all the nonsense about the online mode, it's much harder to have fun messing around causing mayhem and running away from cops. The AI is too deadly and the effort to make the game more "realistic" makes it kind of a chore.

HerpicleOmnicron5 posted:You realise it launched without online, right? It's also not all that hostile, given it gives you so much poo poo in terms of raw assets over the course of the campaign. It's practically no different to GTA 4. The game is designed such that you're always bleeding money, with the intent that if you do the typical GTA messing around you'll run out and need to go play MP. There's also very little to do outside the story besides collectibles, prior games had a lot more engaging side content. In V all that stuff is moved to online, especially anything repeatable that might keep a player coming back. It's a shame because TLAD and TBOGT are easily the two best pieces of DLC/expansion ever, taking a mediocre base game and making something great out of it with both better content and new features. Rockstar will never make the mistake of providing that kind of value again, they're all about optimizing how much they can monetize every moment of your time at this point.

Also that thing about some random guy improving the game's loading times by 70% by fixing Rockstar's lovely coding is loving embarrassing.

It's funny because both Sega and Atlus USA were really early adopters of steam as a platform. Sega put a bunch of old Genesis and Dreamcast stuff on there really early on, and Atlus USA was publishing stuff like Zeno Clash and Rock of Ages. It's only the Japanese branch of Atlus that has been dragging their heels.

I thought that the single player campaign in GTA5 was fine, the main gimmick was being able to switch between 3 protagonists and let me tell you, you won't guess what Trevor was up to etc. Sure that if you compare it to something like Episodes from Liberty City which was elevated by The Ballad of Gay Tony and The Lost and Damned then it doesn't look that good but imo it was as solid as base GTA 4 and I didn't feel pressured by online content at all. I played on the PS4 though, way earlier than the PC release.

I mean it would (probably?) not be that hard but it'd also be AFAIK unprecedented and worth nobodies time to do. I don't think it would be bad if they did or anything I'm just not surprised they don't.

I wanted to replay GTA V, having beaten it on PS3 at release, but once I started I remembered all the frustrating bits with never getting paid in the campaign and ended up bailing. If it had shooting as good as Max Payne 3 I probably would have stuck it out, but it doesn’t. You’re way too fragile.

While it's great that Nocturne is coming to steam, what the hell is going on with that price? I could probably live with paying 50 euros for the remaster of a (really loving good) 17 year old game, but 20 euros more for the dlc is really pushing it.

I've got a sneaking suspicion that the lion's share of that cost is Dante and the OST DLC since it involves paying out other parties.

After being spoiled by all the other better open world games over the years, GTA V was the first one I had fun with since San Andreas. I got it free and expected I'd do a mission or two and be bored, but I totally got sucked in.
