Rockman Reserve posted:no way, dx2 had a ton of missions for mutually exclusive factions and stuff yeah i played dx2 last month and despite the story itself being kinda bleh compared to 1 it seems to have a lot more variation in who you can side with at any given moment and the amount of important NPCs you can kill and tell their factions to gently caress off (until the next area where they will forgive you if you just do this quest for them) like the first game none of it really matters and you choose one of 3 endings in the final level though

Regardless of whatever are the true criteria of an RPG, I think we can all agree that JRPGs are the best of all, like Super Mario Brothers,

Rockman Reserve posted:pretty sure when I dipped into the games thread for it they were complaining about a goofy motorcycle duel/boss fight, further cementing the idea that the games subforum functions best as a containment zone for absolute freakin weirdos I loving loved that segment and hope there are more! lol. I love when games all the sudden do something totally different from the standard gameplay in the game. I feel like that used to be more common in games, interludes with unique gameplay

Here's an unpopular opinion if you go by cranky goons who hate everything: I unequivocally love the open world formula. Not every single open world game, but just in general it's a type of game I love. The freedom they grant you and the amount of content that games like this include just really do it for me.

lol, that's a no context quote from the ending. which is kind of fitting since the way the game displays text was copied from twitter (according to the lead dev) and nothing lends itself better to no context quoting than twitter. anyway, don't be scared of the asterisks op. Disco Elysium is really good if you start from the beginning. e: also, I have no clue about literature, but isn't using weird sentence structure like that a common feature of postmodern fiction?

Call of Duty's huge volume of endlessly respawning enemies until you pushed forward was super neat and helped deliver the war game concept other titles couldn't.

Disco Elysium is a game where you get a game over because you missed a 90% dice roll causing a small child to swear at you and now your character is having a mental breakdown. Alternatively sometimes you just game over for no reason, such as after examining a gear box in a car, or making a phone call to the wrong person. No dice roll required. The game also only autosaves every half hour or so so I hope you like quick saving after everything you do.

I've only ever bought one game for my Sony Play Station 4 home computer system, and it was the GOATSE release of Fallout 4, and I'm still playing it. So I guess I like open world game. (I also have MGS V TPP but I didn't buy it, it came with the system.) FE: I did "buy" Slapping Dongs for like 1,39€ "digitally" (as if games on disc were analog) but I still haven't played it. Actual E: I have played making GBS threads Cocks but not on the PS4.

The place where we can truly be safe to talk about how garbage all of those lovely games are, maybe argue with each other even. A safe haven amidst the chaos of people going "yay I preordered another garbo AAA game" where all we have is our angst. Complain not about your fellow posters, but about the lovely games they play.
