I had No More Heroes 3 on Switch but barely played it because, well, it looked and ran like a switch title. Now that it’s on PS5 it’s smooth as butter and hell this game kicks rear end so far.

"Ah," Ratz had said, at last, "the artiste."
Leon Kennedy is officially safe! I'm really glad I went back to get the flamethrower after almost missing it because goddamn does it trivialize the final section

Very curious to see how much Claire's story differs, but considering she showed up to the ending with a tiny child in tow I'm really dreading what I assume are some miserable pure stealth sections

But should I do new game for Claire or new game 2nd run???

EDIT: my rank for posterity, I backtracked a LOT lol

I recently resubbed for PC gamepass (to play Grounded with friends) so I will likely play Plague Take on that, but drat I'd I'd not rather play it on PlayStation instead.

Wow the "finish the game" trophy for Modern Warfare 2019 is at 12%, and the rest of the mostly pedestrian trophies are below 1% earned.

I know most CoD player go straight to the MP, still impressive how the campaign is thoroughly ignored.

There's only a single stealth section (a counterpart to Ada's segment). It's pretty simple but probably annoying the first time

I think fomo plays a big part in this, people don’t want to “waste time” playing something that doesn’t make them progress or gain something. Even as simple as not playing with a friend can have a cooling effect on playing sp modes. I know I used to avoid sp because I didn’t want to fall behind my friends

Hope this rear end in a top hat gets Neverending Storied by the end :reject:

Anyway, question(s) for the thread: is there a reason to collect lizard tails and fruit?
I pick them up but as far as I can tell I don't have an inventory, so I'm inclined to believe they don't mean squat.
I also picked up something glowing gold near a waterfall, what was that? The game didn't give me any feedback on it.

If you just hold x or whatever button you have assigned to make agro go faster, I think once she’s going as fast as possible you can just hold x and you’ll maintain that speed, and if you’re on a windy, narrow path, if you hold x without touching the left stick, agro won’t run into anything and will make the turns correctly, etc.

thanks for all of the info on yakuza. i assume they're all playable on the ps5 at this point?

One more thing. It is absolutely worth going 0-6 for Kiryu's story. But it will take a long time to experience, it was 1.5 years for me and I ddi not 100% any of them and played most on easy, because the combat otherwise takes ages.
You could skip all side quests and activities, but then you miss out on the soul of Yakuza games.
The main thing is Yakuza fatigue though. You will probably have to play other stuff in between because it gets a bit samey otherwise, just like open World fatigue.

I played Kiwami first then 0 and I feel like if it were the other way around I would've been disappointed with Kiwami because it was a smaller game compared to 0. I'm playing Kiwami 2 now and I felt like doing a prequel between 1 and 2 made me look forward to the plot more.

With Isaac talking more in the dead space remake, I wonder if he's going to ruin puzzles like Aloy. "I should probably shoot the monsters." "I need to aim for their limbs." "Oh yeah, I need oxygen to breathe. Better display my remaining air supply as a timer."

That was my biggest complaint about the 1st game, her nonstop commentary. "Hmm, there's tracks on the ground, I should follow them". I'd like a "stop talking to yourself" option.

There are secret horse controls.

Hold back on the left stick and hit triangle (or whatever the gallop button is, forget if it changed) while stopped to get up to full speed immediately. Doing this while moving works as a brake.

If you do that but hit triangle twice Agro will do a 180 quick turn.

I think there's a way to do a 90 degree turn with like back then left/right but I might be thinking of Red Dead or something.

You can also hold the grab button and some directions to ride on the side of the horse or surf it.

But yeah, Agro auto steers a lot more than most video game horses, once you get used to it it's a lot better.

The horse is actually too well programmed. You're probably used to horses that are basically extensions of your main character and control roughly the same. In SotC the Horse is intelligent and requires very little direction. The more you try to control it the worse it'll be. Just point it in the right direction and go, it'll make the minor corrections you need and will work just fine. It's extremely different than any horse in any other game so you need to stop treating it like it's just another horse. Control it as little as possible and you'll find that you'll fall in love with it pretty quickly.

There are a couple of fights where you’ll need to rely on the horse to do the right thing while you’re concentrating on something else so may as well start getting used to that
