Waffleman_ posted:I just wanted to solve a loving murder and the game didn't even let me do that until the DLC comes out. Lol I forgot how frustrating that game was as a whole. Loads of cool concepts but in the end completely unsatisfying. There was one quest I really wanted to do but you had to farm like 200 really hard to find objects so I just gave it up

How many people knew about the funky Cait Sith theme, it has replaced Jerma's Enemy as my earworm of choice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRY9GxTYrz8

IMO Outer Worlds is a victim of hype and timing. It came out after the disastrous Fallout 76 and was advertised as being made by the OG Fallout guys so everyone online had really high hopes for it. Could this be the long awaited New Vegas 2? Then Disco Elysium burst onto the scene two weeks before the release date as one of the best written RPGs of all time, The Big Communism Game. Outer Worlds came out and it was wacky and silly without anything to really say politically beyond "what if capitalism but worse and in a funny way?" If Outer Worlds hadn't been released right at that time and wasn't an Obsidian game it would probably be just a weird little 7 or 8/10 game with Fallout vibes. Also the whole name confusion thing. Of course people are free to dislike things, feelings are weird and the gameplay systems aren't super amazing either. One scene that I liked is in one quest when you are trying to bring a big mothership thing into the solar system that the game takes place in. The navigation computer is broken so you gotta do rpg stuff before you can do a hyperspace jump. If your character is low intelligence you can decide "nah, I can wing it" and slam the button, flying immediately straight into the sun.

Jay Rust posted:Has every major game released in the past month featured performance issues? The Unreal Engine 4 curse, but it's mostly an issue on PC due to shader compilation. Consoles are easier because the shaders can be precompiled before the game release.

homeless snail posted:I dont think it means much at all, there's really no reason for luminous to exist anymore. tabata's vanity studio founded to do the ff15 dlc, lead on whatever his next game would have been, and support the luminous engine. he's no longer with the company, the ff15 dlc got axed, and the luminous engine is a dead end that isn't going to be used again after forspoken that's a fair read of things, and i'm glad it's likely just gonna be a merger and not any house cleaning

Yeah, presumably they're just gonna get absorbed into CBU I or something.

before the reorg they were division 2, they probably would have ended up at cbu1 had luminous not got spun off yeah I always kinda assumed the scheme with spinning them off was to get into the third party engine licensing business, which seems like an insanely bad place to be

I was just assuming because they seemed to have spun off from XV's production and CBU I was where most of the mainlines were made

At the end of the day, it's still not a great look being reabsorbed back into the company due to how poorly your game sold.

thinking about how when they cancelled the ff15 dlc and wrote off the expense everyone was like "square lost $300m on ff15", which, wasn't really what happened there either. same vibe

Waffleman_ posted:I mean, the 2013 Tomb Raider is the best-selling game in the entire franchise and Square still considered it a failure I think we need to finally accept the truth that Square made this declaration as a sacrifice for the greater good, so that Hitman Absolution selling well couldn't be used as an excuse to keep making Hitman games with that kind of terrible story/hosed up atmosphere, which created the Hitman 2016 reboot trilogy. Which was a sign of a kind and loving God existing.

It has a perfectly functional bridging story between levels that largely just set the scene for the murder puzzle fun of each level. It's a masterpiece by comparison to the appalling dreck that was Absolution, plus it does a good job of building up the friendship/reliance that Diana and 47 have (which it manages to pull off without any weird nude shower scenes!).

Aside from the bad final train level, which I do agree sucked, I think the story was a fun framing device for all the other very good levels.
