fridge corn posted:First person games are generally garbage compared to third person games wtf is wrong you people Doom Eternal has better combat than 90% of third person games and the last 10% is pretty much just From Software, Platinum and the Devil May Cry series.

Tuxedo Catfish posted:tank controls are a war crime and any game with them should be buried and forgotten The pedant in me has to point out that HZD doesn't have tank controls by any definition I know- if you press left you... move left, and so on. You don't swivel around and then press forward to actually move.

In DS3 I made my own Covenant, the crab protectors. You just went to see if the giant crabs were alive and if they were well the person you had invaded could live. Dead crabs, dead player. I hope ER lets me do something similar.

They gave me an early copy so I can stream over Christmas and it turns out that is the best FromSoft game. I thought you would all like to know.

I don't know how I feel about the moral-choice dialogue tree options though. Feels like they're leaning a bit more Bethesda than Breath of the Wild in their open world approach

I wanted to do a Souls game before Elden Ring and Ive played Demon Souls and 1 through 3 so much I decided on the Dark Souls 3 convergence mod. I cant tell if I'm no longer any good at Souls games or if Convergence is hard as hell

From a French video game rag: "Finally, if you were wondering if Elden Ring will be beautiful, the 20 minutes of gameplay confirmed to us that it does. If technically, everything did not always seem up to the task an the animations such as certain textures sometimes look like Dark Souls 3, Elden Ring will be a real aesthetic slap. The environments are varied and detailed, the display distance is a credit to the new generation of machines, and the character design is once again excellent. The silent and heavy atmosphere of the open world will again contrast with the epic and bombastic tunes of the boss fights (again impressive, for the little that we have glimpsed), and all will be served by a high level artistic direction, with what it comprises massive and intimidating architectures or fields, and forests which could almost have a bucolic charm if they were not so disturbing."

Yeah it was originally announced for PS4/Xbone. PS5/Series releases were just confirmed this year. And each Fromsoft PC port is better than their last. I'm sure it'll run OK on last-gen hardware.

Sum Gai posted:Does your definition of "third person shooter" not include Resident Evil 4? Because it sounds like you just dismissed one of the games that justifies humanity's existence. Resi 4 is an absolute slog to play. Some of its design innovations have been welcome in specific ways and in certain genres, but it also initiated the rapid decline of its own series and helped festoon the industry with quicktime events and bad escort missions.

Resident Evil 4 on my initial playthrough and subsequent replay was very good. Trying it again recently revealed a game that was quite engaging and graphically pretty great, but very tiresome to play at times even when your muscle memory kicks in around quick turns and etc.

Volte posted:drat, where are you getting all the parts other than the GPU for free? I mentioned I wanted to build a new PC to my boss awhile back and he asked if I had and I said nah because a graphics card would still double the cost so he just gave me one from inventory. I'd probably be fine with my current machine but I was using Elden Ring as an excuse to build a new one.

My first and only time with RE4 was on the Wii and it was tonnes of fun. I think the controllers were a big part of that.

 I personally am of the opinion that all we barely deserved was one quasi-gameplay trailer. We aren’t worthy. We must be kept in the dark to see it’s true, blinding splendour all at once. Eblen ding

I'm aware that 98 days from now the (lack of) marketing is just going to be a weird footnote, but still, basically going back to the information drought after the reveal trailer honestly feels pretty cruel.

i've purchased every from game physically eventually (i own like 3 different copies of DS3) and elden ring will be no exception, but tbh, i don't even want any reason for lending it away or even removing it from my console to crop up in the first 6 months.
