BaldDwarfOnPCP posted:I have opinions about a game that's probably been talked about to death but is new to me. Rad Dad 2 is loving infuriating in story mode, in camp mode, town mode. By the time you get to the big city there is a fairly hilarious bit in a square where you can run and then forced to walk and then run like 4 or 5 times in a row as you go through. Arthur looks like he's walking in to the wind drunk stuttering and falling. this is incomprehensible are you trying to say it's too slow or something like that?

I'd play Rad Dad 2. Just renting some sweet ninja movies, getting a pizza, everybody allowed to pick their favourite junk food.

Cracker King posted:BOTW was frustrating. I heard all the stories of ‘go anywhere and explore.’ Nah you didn't play the game wrong, though BotW is also happy to let you stumble into something you really can't handle yet/don't have the resources to fight successfully, in which case it's probably best to wander in a different direction and see what's over there instead. The game does feature some degree of enemy difficulty scaling based on how much you've completed but it isn't quite so much that you won't run into things you're probably better off running away from early on. Though it is possible to walk right from the tutorial plateau into the final boss fight, you're probably not gonna win if you don't stop to pick up some good weapons on the way.

JollyBoyJohn posted:This is a subtle but biting dig because while botw is a good videogame i had a bad time with it because i need a bit more direction Yeah that I can definitely see. I've experienced that with open world games before, though in my case I think it ends up happening with the kind of open world game that scatters a ton of icons on your map. I end up getting lost in the weeds and end up not having fun and putting the game down, where I might not have if it was just a linear story game with the same premise and overall gameplay. Not sure what made BotW work so well for me but I can very much see it not working for everyone.

It’s frankly amazing that Rockstar is a billion dollar successful company and their business strategy is: put out garbage lovely games that sell solely on the residual fumes of people remembering that time they killed a prostitute in middle school. That’s it that’s all they have. The gameplay isn’t good. The mission structure isn’t good. It’s just people snickering that they’re playing a game that says gently caress and disrespects the police and mom doesn’t know.

In general if anyone starts saying "you can <x>" as a selling point of a game I automatically think they're dumb and the game is bad. "Lol you can spray poop on a house!" "You can have sex with a prostitute and kill her and take her money" "You can kidnap a mob wife and put her in a trunk lol!" "You can totally dress as a clown and flash your dick at the police!" Because I'm not six and doing play-pretend with my friends, and I need actual gameplay and mechanics if I'm to be engaged. Saints Row 2 was good because under all the spectacle and juvenile bullshit there were some actually pretty solid gameplay mechanics, 3 and 4 were dogshit because they traded that all in for "stand on the spot and press Y to do a wacky zany You Can thing!" Every GTA game since Vice City has added successively more "Do as you're told and stand on the spot and we'll throw you a nice canned You Can animation as a reward" and so they're all poo poo. Sleeping Dogs was also utter poo poo, every mission being "drive to the place, wait for the incredibly obvious COUNTER ATTACK button a few times, stand on the spot and press Y". Don't even start me on Red Dead, that and everyone involved with it is a loving disaster. The absolute nadir of this were Mafia 3 and the new Wolfensteins. Terrible, shallow, repetitive games that got a free ride from goons because "YOU CAN SHOOT RACISTS" .

I think they (Bungie) were told you’d make more money by making it free to play online but didn’t really consider why that works. Some games make absurd amounts of money by catering almost exclusively to whales and then having the whales compete against each other like a war in the heavens sort of thing, and also making a good game for the rest of the people subsidized essentially by those whales. Other games make absurd amounts of money by charging everyone a sub. Other games are just fine being free forever, with a handful of micro transactions (GW1, and maybe 2). But instead, whaling does basically nothing for you (or bungie) and instead they gently caress with the common man with battle passes and poo poo that end up seeming WAY more aggressive and rude than a sub, even if they’re technically cheaper. I absolutely would love a good subscription MMO that has you do gun things instead of hotbar poo poo.

I'm assuming Destiny 2 isn't actually responsible for starting this trend, but I saw them do it first so I'm gonna talk about something I DO NOT LIKE in the video games nowadays. I really DO NOT LIKE how like every PvP mode in every major video game now has to have a extended sequence at the start and end of every match where the camera has to pan over your squad/team/whatever (or worse, cycle every single player solo) while they do dances or emotes or whatever. And that the only reason this really happens is to sell cosmetic bullshit.
