The Excavation of Hob's Barrow is good. It's on the easier side for an adventure game but I think the folk horror stuff works pretty well. Fatal Frame holds up decently imo. I'm generally sympathetic to the idea the survival horror can be amplified by clunkier controls and enemies that sometimes feel mismatched to them a little but FF doesn't quiet get it right every time. Several of the later game ghosts end up being more annoying than tense or scary. Please have a nice rest of your Sunday.

Isn’t the easy reply to this to mention something about how wages have barely increased so if anything folks are “under-charging” for their labor or something to that effect? Like, yeah it sucks but don’t attack across/down like a garbage tier human being. Pathetic.

Shindragon posted:Yeah that dude can gently caress off. Bad enough 70 dollars to charge for ports/remasters. Woooo. It is interesting to think about because adjusted for inflation yeah games and consoles cost less, but on the whole more discretionary purchases are required for their full functionality. That said, most games are a lot more involved, full-fledged experiences than the arcade fare of the PSX gen, but microtransactions leave a bad stink and overall human quality of life is so much shittier than it was 30 years ago. I dunno, I guess it's hard for me to look at something like Elden Ring and not see it as one of the best videogame deals of all time, along with Uncharted 2, Goldeneye, and Super Mario World. I feel like games are better than they ever have been, but there is a lot more trash to sift through as well, so Sturgeon's Law.

I wouldn't mind paying 70 bucks for an AAA game if they didn't have any microtransactions, lootboxes or battle passes Pretty sure that no publisher is gonna take me up on that

Maybe there is something wrong with my eyes but I remember getting kind of irritated with the brightness and color scheme of Mirror's Edge. It's a fun game but it made my eyes sore after a while. Super Mario Sunshine has the same problem. There's only so many bright, primary colors I can take. I found it funny that in SMS they included a sunglasses mode but only after you beat the game. Thanks, Nintendo.

I thought AAA just reflected the game's budget  , it's a pretty expensive game, and Housemarque is no longer an indie studio. Returnal is considered their first AAA or 'prestige' game.

Whoops, I'll take your word for it. To be fair I've never played returnal or watched more than like 15 seconds clips of gameplay, I just had a vague understanding that it was some kinda roguelike run-based shooter (which is a genre which usually screams indie or mid-budget to me).

Returnal is amazing, don't sleep on it like I did. If you have the PS+ Ultra Hyper Deluxe Omega sub you get it as part of the game library

I remember shortly after Mirror's Edge first came out I saw a few posts online complaining about how if you mess with the game to look at it in 3rd person, the animations are weird. Like, yeah no poo poo the animations are weird, they designed it for 1st person not 3rd person lol

Infinitum posted:Mirrors Edge was a lot of fun. I love both Mirror's Edge and Catalyst. Catalyst suffers a lot from mid 2010s AAA bloat, but running around the city was a ton of fun. Catalyst also had a really cool combat system that encouraged keeping up speed and momentum, and it would be great to see another game incorporate those mechanics. But really, I want another Mirror's Edge game, but I don't think it'll ever happen again.

After shouting "gently caress you!" at my tv more times in the last two days than in the entire previous year, I have decided to put Circle of the Moon on hold for a while. As a palette cleanser, I have moved on to Harmony of Dissonance because why not, it came with the bundle too. Oh my God it's like night and day, I feel like I can breathe again. I had forgotten that controls could feel snappy and that there are enemies that can actually be dodged, and whose attacks don't loving petrify you or send you flopping across the screen like a hocked loogie. It's all so garish and acid trip colorful, it's like playing the videogame adaptation of Creepshow, or some old EC horror comic. Music's more forgettable though, I kinda miss the surf rock

poo poo I missed Mirror's Edge talk? Adored that game and I'm Still Alive still comes into my head unbeckoned at least once a month. Also Silent Hill reveals October 19th, Suikoden remakes around the corner, Fatal Frame slowly but surely getting re releases, I'm really enjoying this period.
