Control felt like System Shock + Parasite Eve + Deadly Premonition and it was cool. Definitely interested in the sequel.

Control is cool. The ashtray maze and the final encounter were sick balls.

Did they ever say what they’re doing next? I feel like I remember Alan Wake 2 getting announced. Or are they gonna do like an Unbreakable/Split/Glass interconnected trilogy kinda thing? That might be cool.

I don't think everything in Assassins Creed is memorable but I'm glad you enjoyed it Mamkute.

Control is good but I found the combat especially the bonus challenges in the quarry got really annoying on hard mode. You get nearly wiped out by one shot from a guy who spawned in behind you at some point. I think one of the few games that would benefit from respawning hp instead of health pick ups dropped by enemies. A nightmare when you get nearly one shotted and your only option is to sprint at at the remaining bunch of enemies

Not really because you’re very weak in the game and enemies dropping hp usually means tou have to run in to try pick it up. Doesn’t work that well when you are dealing with the guys doing 90% damage with rockets who just backspawned behind you on balconies or flying guys or the super psychics with shields etc

I play games on hard usually but I think you're right that it's a single difficult game.

I thought the combat was good in the early going but I think it just ends up being a chore for me by the end. Just too many incredibly tacky enemies with huge return damage. I think what' I'm thinkiremebring specifically of where I stopped and found the combat very annoying was the combat challenges rather than a specific story game encounter. I remember those being super punishing but wanting to get all the medals.

I also hate when games have rare components and stuff in an offline single player game, that stuff sucks. Other than that though it kicks rear end.

Xenoblade chronicles: good game. I started it awhile ago and got bogged down around the time you find Melia and Riki and didn't play it for like 6 months, but pushing through that it starts picking up steam again. The last third or so was great, really made me want to play xenosaga again which I'll do after xenoblade 2 and 3.

Yeah I didn't like the "mod" upgrade system for the guns and your abilities. It's a pain keeping track of all the % upgrade mods and at the end of the game I would constantly have to go into the menu to delete old ones and look at each one trying to decide what was best to keep. They don't even make much difference anyway and of course + health and + damage mods are way better than others (as always.)

56) Murder By Numbers The concept of 'solve picross to gain evidence to solve a murder mystery' is really cute but as you play the game you realize that a) it doesn't actually work that well as a concept b) the murder mystery is pretty boring and c) the puzzles aren't particularly good and you don't even get the satisfaction of making a cool pixel art thing because the end product is gibberish that just magically morphs into whatever it needs to be. 4/10

haha perfect!  But yeah, I agree with Emmy on this - it would've been nice if you could get one of those perk/upgrades that lets you slowly regen HP when you use a slot on it. Since if the devs were concerned about balance, this way there would at least be a trade-off; you're getting slow HP regen so you don't need to rely solely on pickups, but on the other hand it'll mean that you don't get some variation of a damage/range/RoF upgrade, etc.

Plebian Parasite posted:57) Stray (all memories, all badges) Nice! How long (roughly) does Stray take, if you don't mind me asking? I think I'll probably get it after it gets a slight discount, since I'm curious about it. Still have plenty to play at the moment so I'm not desperate for a new game, but it's certainly on my radar

It's not very long at all, I did a 100% run over 8 or so hours, even going back and replaying chapters to pick up stuff I missed. I think a no frills playthrough would take you a little more than an hour.

Metal Gear Solid 3. Code name: Pigeon, meaning I successfully finished a no-kills run which feels nice after not getting the low-kills trophy despite my efforts towards it in the first game. Like MGS 1 and 2 this is my second time through the game, and I don't think I appreciated it well enough the first time I played in college 10-ish years ago--I definitely liked it a lot back then but I don't think I realized that it's one of the best games ever made, which I definitely do now. Everything about it is fantastic, the characters and their codec conversations, the art design, the story, the atmosphere of the jungle that most of it takes place in, and they all come together in a completely incredible experience. I'm definitely not going to wait another 10 years to replay this one. Also I think I'm going to make a project to watch each of the movies that Para-Medic talks about when you save, she talks about a lot of my favorites from the 60s and earlier and some of the ones I haven't seen are classics that I could use the excuse to finally watch.
