Had my eye on this game for a while and watched a video review earlier and holy poo poo you were not kidding about the weirdness of the player character being limited to 24fps animation while the game runs at 60fps, it looks jarring as heck and I know there's an argument for stylistic choices and such but that just looks terrible in every way

You can play the Halo infinite Bot matches and firing range right now, no need to wait for multiplayer to get a feel for weapons its very much followed the MW2019 winning strategy of modernising a cult classic and it feels very good to play. Like halo but faster, without being too fast. its scaled well.

Halo Infinite feels pretty good to play! I was just playing MCC yesterday and it feels like it should feel but even smoother, I'm impressed so far.

The Grumbles posted:Oh man, I think I might be done with Gamepass for PC, at least until they revamp the app for Windows 11. It's great value and I'm desperate to complete Psychonauts 2 and the Artful Escape, but the app itself is just so poo poo. It's recently been giving me this weird bug where I can't choose an install drive for games, even on a clean install. There''s 'gaming services' service that the app installs from the Windows store, and once that's installed it just stops everything working for some reason. It's hard to recommend it to friends as 'Netflix, but for games!' when you know the whole thing is so janky and might require registry edits etc (which might not even fix the problem). It's a huge bummer because most of my time on PC has been spent via gamepass games, but I'm just so sick of fighting against the stupid app and its stupid way of managing games, certain games refusing to install for some reason, etc etc. And then you switch to something like Steam that just doesn't care if you've reinstalled Windows, swapped your drives around, or whatever else, and always just works. I really hope their promised Windows 11 revamp changes things. Windows Gaming Services got an update! It works now (for now). Thank you to one of the worlds biggest and most infrastructurally significant companies for fixing their poo poo. I got to finish the Artful Escape, which I really liked.

Getting to the end of Sable now, and I really dig that the ending of the game fits extremely well with the games theme. Its slightly a shame that its significantly easier to get certain endings versus others, with merchant in particular being extremely easy to get, while the climber is super involved and requires you to have been able to get at least one other ending first. I'm gonna try and 1000/1000 this because it is just absolutely my jam but one quest hinges on finding collectibles and right now it feels like there are significantly more on the map than what you need to get the achievement, but that could turn out to be a lie and I will curse the sky as I am short a few. As far as QoL goes for some inexplicable reason they knew the hover bike should teleport to wherever you fast traveled to last, but it will not come to you when you call it if you're outside its radius, so often if you explore and end up too far from it, it is significantly, significantly faster to just fast travel and then hop onto it and drive back to wherever you were going. I also wish (and it feels like it was intended to be a more full-featured feature) the mail system did more. Every minute playing it reminds me how much Breath of the Wild sucks in comparison.

Excellent, just started the download, thank you. Hard to believe that with all the preparation they're doing bit by bit that anyone thought this would be launching a year ago. I feel bad for the developers because they obviously knew there was no chance it was coming out last year but some executive has demanded they show that preview in July 2020.

The grappling hook is not a gimmick as I first assumed, it's a legit part of Halo gameplay now. It's really good.

Just really fun to use and opens up so many tactical options. I know there are plenty of reasons to think the single player campaign might be a problem but the F2P multiplayer is gunna loving destroy.

Sable update: cursing the sky as you do indeed need to hunt down all the little fuckers for the final achievement and there is no in game finding assistance other than noting on the map the locations of the ones you found. Well time to get all the other achievements, I guess. SUNKOS posted:Had my eye on this game for a while and watched a video review earlier and holy poo poo you were not kidding about the weirdness of the player character being limited to 24fps animation while the game runs at 60fps, it looks jarring as heck and I know there's an argument for stylistic choices and such but that just looks terrible in every way It looks so bad. The only time it ever looks good is under certain lighting conditions and outfits where it looks sort of like its running at 60. It is the most no sensical artistic choice I've seen in a long time. It just looks so loving bad every single second you're moving and anything else is moving which is all the drat time Its on game pass, but like as much as I adore this game it needs performance patching so badly
