Thinking back on Village it really was strange how the game introduced a cast of Eastern European survivors each with unique perspectives and quirks ala the new Wolfenstein games only to murder literally all of them a minute later

I think I just dont like the final boss of this game very much. It feels anti-climatic and kind of tacked on, she doesn't look cool and it's completely unclear what the gently caress is going on or if I'm doing it right. She feels like an RE6 boss in so far as a cutscene eventually triggers and I'm like "oh, I guess I'm doing something right?" Crucially, no one throws me a rocket launcher from a helicopter making it unclear if she can even technically by considered a true Resident Evil end boss. Honestly, I think Miranda has Saddler's problem that I'm so focused on getting to know her underlings, I've kind of forgotten about her by the end and I never really built up any relationship with her.

I was inspired by beating this to go back and get the platinum on 7 with all the madhouse coins. Overall the bosses in 8 put 7's to shame. Conceptually the Jack fights are cool but none of them are very fun mechanically. The Lucas fight from Chris DLC was better and more akin to 8's. But the final boss is hardly even a boss... they hadn't quite figured out FPS combat for 7, 8 feels much better. The fat molded also aren't very fun as mini bosses compared to the big lycans or the later one.

Was enjoying just running around with a shotgun at hyperspeed in Mercenaries until Village 2 happened. Just straight sucked the fun out of the mode and made it tedious and too much of a difficulty spike.

So I beat the game, restarted, played through it again to grab more money, and then reloaded the Game Completed 2 slot. I picked a higher difficulty to get more funds from enemies to continue acquiring stuff, only to discover that none of my items had carried over. Does New Game+ only work once or something? Did switching the difficulty affect it somehow? Is it a bug?

When you say restarted you mean NG+? Your save file should list how many times you’ve completed the game. you start a NG+ by loading the completed file and picking a difficulty. You don’t start a new game.

I've done it 5 times now, gathering more money each time. You have to save after each time and just start from that new save (I use save slot 20 and just overwrite each time)

Captain Hygiene posted:I wish they'd added in the stronger melee focus from that too, this has punching but it's pretty basic and staggering isn't really frequent enough. On this, each monster has their own stagger criteria. On the main oozes you disable each arm by shooting them until they ragdoll stupidly and you can do your melee on them. You can get it pretty consistently once you figure it out

BOAT SHOWBOAT posted:Thinking back on Village it really was strange how the game introduced a cast of Eastern European survivors each with unique perspectives and quirks ala the new Wolfenstein games only to murder literally all of them a minute later Yea I think the original plan was to have the village be more of a hub with people to interact with, because what the village is now, some weird kind of off-spoke hub of the actual hub where Duke is, doesn't really make all that much sense to design and build and then just have as a place to punch open boxes and stab the occasional farm animal. I even think I saw stuff a while ago -- like before any of the demo stuff -- that said that they were going for that kind of thing.

I think I may have super hosed up and got ahead of myself or something. I got the rectangular thing from the slime guy and wound up in the swamp with the bridges and the giant fish thing where the windmills are but I'm road blocked. I can't restore power, don't have the right windmill crank and the strategy guides I'm looking at seem to indicate I missed the grenade launcher. I didn't explore enough or push enough objects in the lake area where the fish creature is but the game isn't letting me backtrack. I feel lost and think I went too far somehow. Made it to the merchant in the reservoir but think I got ahead of myself somehow.

The second windmill is kind of fucky about the crank. I think you have to go look at where the ladder starts around the top (Ethan will comment something like “I can’t climb it like this”) and then you can go crank it into place. That’s happened to me a couple times.

Go out the other door in the area with the merchant and you'll see boards in the water that make a path to the second windmill. It's a bit of a maze game Edit - There's an annoyingly hard to see board you have to shoot to get the ladder down once you get to the second windmill.

Beat Rev2, I absolutely loved it. It's mostly a great iteration smoothing up what I liked about the first one, with very few complaints. Mainly that the invisible enemies are kinda bullshit and I'm so sick of timed countdown sequences no matter what. Otherwise it's just consistently solid. I think my guesstimated ranking holds up:Captain Hygiene posted:Tentative ranking: 4, 8, 2make, 7, Rev2(?), 3make, Rev1, 6, 5 It was the best game after 4 up until they made the phenomenal turnaround with 7. And hell, I might even pick it over 7 if I'm in the mood for actiony shenanigans. Just good all around.  Also I'm declaring this the Official Barry Fuckin' Burton Commemoration Page, Capcom you better be listening for the next game

I'm glad you managed to get the actual ending (or were told/looked up how to get it beforehand) because the game ends on such a terrible note if you don't do it the right way that I wouldn't even describe it as a bad ending, just bad.

Actually I was mistaken, you have to fail a QTE to get to the good ending option, I managed to gently caress it up just right enough to think it was the intended path. Bad design, if for no other reason than that it locks "Go jump on a dildo, boss!", perhaps the greatest line in the series, behind a missable moment.

f#a# posted:i've really gotta wonder if there's some dynamic difficulty in this game, initial survival sequence aside There's a substantial dynamic difficulty system that, iirc, messes with enemy health and item drops. Item drops are also responsive to weapons you possess. I think datamining the details is ongoing; some bosses have ill-considered scripted health or armor changes that can lead to you unknowingly wasting ammo.

Mainly that the invisible enemies are kinda bullshit and I'm so sick of timed countdown sequences no matter what. Otherwise it's just consistently solid. I think my guesstimated ranking holds up: Barry rules in that game. I had so much fun in his segments. I should really finish that game. Finished 8 last night clocking about 9 hours. Really enjoyed it for the most part. The factory was a pain because so much of it looked identical. Also gently caress those armored Soldat. The boss fight was hilarious and exactly as stupid as I expected from the set up. The victory lap with Chris felt really good, final boss was a bit meh. Was getting my rear end kicked and was about to rage quit when the game let me go to the Duke. Seems I had enough to upgrade my sniper rifle and shotgun so I dumped my cash into powering those up and huh, final boss isn't as hard now. The reveal that Ethan is a mold dude and basically the entire back end of the story info dump was some hilarious nonsense that I loved. Gimme that good nonsense Resident Evil you beautiful mess. Mercinaries is weird. I did a round last night, I might play more but we'll see. Started NG+ tonight on standard again so I can try and max out a couple weapons and get a faster run down. Joke was on me because I walked into the village with my weapons and all the ammo I had at the end of the game (about 3 GL rounds and 9 rounds in the samurai edge). It's fine, I survived lol. Now that I've finished at least one run of the game I can go back to Mass Effect without feeling bad about ignoring Village.
