Combat improves when you get some more upgrades and weapons but it never really more than functional. That was good enough for me though.

drrockso20 posted:Finally got around to trying Crash 4 since it's one of the PS+ games for July, and man I am not enjoying this one at all, the level design in this game is just plain mean in all the worst ways, and that's even with the game having an unlimited lives system as the default(ironically in some ways it feels more punishing than limited lives since the game locks content behind beating levels under a certain amount of lives per try) Yeah the difficulty is complete whack. There have been so many timed were I just lose a mask or die and I have no reason why. the ranges of where an enemy will hit you are really not very clear. I guess they expect people to go straight from the previous games to this one, which is nuts for 20+ year gap between games.

Now that I know the plot twist for Fatal Frame 5 I can't stop laughing at what an amazing 1-2 of complete character assassination and thematic and narrative vibe implosion of the first game. Laffo

Laffo I finally played 5 earlier this year, but it's been at least a decade since I played the first game (and I don't think I ever completed it), what was the switch?

Yeah I'm not even sure what would be considered the plot twist in FF5

One of the characters is a half-ghost incest baby of the first games protagonist. It been ages since I played the original so maybe my mind is fried but the ending vibe is definitely not conducive to that outcome and I recall the point being the dead brother explicitly wasn't the guy that taught the shrine maiden to love but was willing to fill his place for all eternity to make her happy Edit: Not related to Fatal Frame, but I tried playing the new DJ Max game and the tutorial tells you to push Space Bar at one point and I'll be damned I must have a defective xbox controller because theres not a space bar in sight.

That's not really a 'plot twist' it's a vaguely hinted at thing if you collect and read some optional documents in the game.

Yeah I thought it was the third game too but I hadn't played either recently enough to be sure lol

It's also super weird because the PS1 Crash games weren't super hard, and yet that was the hook they decided to hang 4's (they called the 8th Crash Bandicoot game Crash Bandicoot 4 come on Wrath of Cortex was literally Crash 4 in Japan) identity on.

Having played the remaster of Crash 1 I contest the notion that they weren't 'super hard'.

Every 3D platformer from that era was made harder by the fact that they all ran at like 20fps and the camera angles weren't a solved problem.

Messed around with Scarlett Nexus on gamepass last night and it feels pretty fun to play. I just unlocked a hideout and I guess I'm supposed to Make Friends? But I just wanna kill poo poo.

Are you serious about Live A Live overshadowing anything? I expected it to be pretty niche.

Rinkles posted:Are you serious about Live A Live overshadowing anything? I expected it to be pretty niche. It’s a Square Enix RPG that has gotten serious attention because it has never been released here before, got a HD-2D remake which those style of games has sold insanely well (Octopath and Triangle Strat have sold insanely well) and is getting high critical praise from previews. Yes, I think it will overshadow a Digimon game of all things.

A lot of times the media doesn't push back on it.

It’s pretty cool that Sekiro has pocket sand as an attack that’s hideously overpowered on the vulnerable targets. I just realized I had that as an option and just started throwing clumps of it along with fireworks to ignore the third phase of a lategame boss.
