welcome posted:Got the month right but didn't account for it leaving on the 15th, thought I had two more weeks. At roughly 3 whole hours in, don't think I'm going to finish it. I just started XII today and it holds up really well. LB lets you speed time up which is extremely handy because the early game battles are really basic as you only have autoattacks, and there's a fair bit of running from A-B.

It seems 100% likely, even if Rockstar somehow implodes before then.

Once you start using the time skip you won't ever go back except maybe for boss battles, and wonder how people managed to play through the original version being so slow.

I have no doubt FH5 will be fun but isn't it basically just one new big map DLC? Are there any modes/features announced that are actually new to the franchise?

Roman posted:there's been a fresh bunch of new rumors that it's in the works, for whatever that's worth The rumors seem to be mostly about RDR1 which is reportedly in development. I just bought RDR2 anyway and I have to say that the 30fps doesn't really bother me for this one. This game looks amazing on a 4K OLED.

Yeah, there’s a 5 in the name instead of a 4. Duh. Joking aside, the new graphics engine looks a whole lot better than 4. There’s probably a new mode or 2? I can’t wait.

What is the best fight stick for the series X? I have a PS3 Street Fighter 4 tournament stick but I don’t think it would work. Preferable would like one that works on X, PS5, and PC but that may not be a thing.

Preferable would like one that works on X, PS5, and PC but that may not be a thing. Off the shelf, there aren't any sticks that do both PS5 and Series, but I think you can get some universal boards that you can swap into most sticks that'll allow it. For Series X specifically, I think the Fighting Stick α is the only stick that's fully certified for it. I think regular XB1 sticks will also work fine but there aren't a whole lot of those because tournaments were all PS4 except for Killer Instinct (Hori has one and so does Razer, not sure what other options exist).

I got a Brook adapter from amazon for something like $18 from their warehouse sale a while back. They work perfectly. Not sure about PS5 compatibility since I don't have one of those monstrosities.

Qaanba drone is the best entry level stick right now. Their obsidian is among the best top of the line ones too. May need a xbox adapter to make them work tho.

It’s a ps3 version but a guy that I worked with at the time was a huge fight game guy and he said he modded it with some type of parts that were better than stock. Just want to make sure it will work in my X, I would be more worried about the PS5 if it had any games. Edit: I have the Mayflash Magic NS, any chance that will work on the X? I know I could just try for myself but I’m at work and wondering about this stuff helps get me through the day. loudog999 fucked around with this message at 20:00 on Nov 2, 2021 |

Is there a German word for the feeling of satisfaction you get from finishing a game (or anything, really) that you love but you're simultaneously sad that it's over?

The Forgotten City is such a pleasant surprise. It reminds me of the Journeyman Project series in a lot of ways, and now I'm outraged that they stopped making TJP games.
