I thought Armored Core was basically Mechwarrior clunky robots but this looks more like Zone of the Enders and I am DOWN

AC games since their inception have been fast action games compared to the sim style of Mechwarrior/Battletech, it's just that 'fast action' on the PSX looks quaint to us now. But if you look at where the series went with speed after AC3, they are blindingly fast even by 2023 standards.

AC6 actually looks like it's splitting the difference here which I think is reasonable.

ZoE plays more like what I guess we’d call a “character action game” now but with free movement on all 3 axes.

Really no words for how much I hate the enemy ai design in HFW it’s so loving bad

Having really liked HZD, HFW was such a disappointment to me. I got to SF and always just put off playing the rest. The fights are overly complicated with ennemies chasing you over the whole map (and then you need to trek back to pick up the broken parts), Aloy gets knocked down way too long, the only mode they have is in your face while you juggle with the infinite weapon wheel that never has quite what you need to deal with the mix of ennemies they put in front of you. It really feels like they took one step forward, but two back. I hope they course correct for the third and make the encounters more fun and less sweaty for the sake of being sweaty. I complained to my friend about it and he gave me a huge blank stare so it is good to see I am not the only one feeling that way!

Thanks for all your comments on the TVs. It seems sub 16 ms is fine for FPS. The Sony has 17 in 60 hertz, it seems negligible but I need to check more data on that. The Sony tax is a good argument, but seems a non-issue with the current prices of the models I'm eyeing here in Quebec. I decided to steer away from Samsung since they apparently pushed firmwares that made the s90b worse for some obscure reasons and I can't trust a company that would do that.

People keep saying this but, like, you can just run away and they disengage and go back to what they were doing. Or, you know, you can just get in there and gently caress them up and not get chased or whatever.

That's fair. I should probably try using more smokes. I stand by my other criticisms though.

I remember that one fast travel point in HFW that had a good chance of spawning 3 kangaroos right next to you as soon as you load in

The first time I found it very funny, the second time it was much less so because I just wanted to use the bench and not have to deal with all of this poo poo

Also in the era before patches games were just released bugs and all and occasionally later printings had fixes.

Didn't FF7 Remake spend something insane like 7 months not getting any patches when it came out?

Square is really bad about post-launch support. They abandon their games very quickly, except for FFXIV. Final Bar Line has been another exception too.

Finished The Legend of Dragoon. That ending sequence sure was something. Final credits track was pretty good. Overall a completely dumb game that I'm glad I played so that I never have to play it again lol. Oh, did I mention i got the plat??

Iirc the takeaway was that FF7R didn't have any serious bugs that needed patches, it was a pretty high quality release relative to what's normal these days. There were some low res textures including the meme door but that was a questionable optimisation decision rather than a bug that urgently needed fixing. Game pretty much worked and performed well at launch.

i started citizen sleeper on PC and then it got announced for PS5 so i stopped playing, because id rather play it on console but i just sort of forgot that it came out, good call.

Just finished it and cried my loving eyes out, genuine masterpiece imo, absolutely loved it and felt such a connection to the station and its inhabitants.

There was a really common softlock bug in a vent in the Shinra building that cost me (and many others) about 30 mins since the last save!
