Trust me on this. lol all this means to me is "gently caress I'm gonna hear a major spoiler at some point in the next couple weeks" im too terminally online that they won't get me one way or another. although an extra special gently caress you to TVTropes, btw. When I heard that weird little Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog game came out, I naturally googled "murder of sonic the hedgehog" to see what it was, and the sixth hit was TVTropes, and their google summary quote starts out with "Sonic was killed by XXXX using XXXX"

VideoGames posted:I am a HUGE fallout 4 fan - said this all over the place multiple times. Yeah I feel like despite the usual complaints and the fact that there are roughly 500 open world games released every day somehow none have successfully captured that 'wander around aimlessly completely ignoring the main plot, get really fixated on decorating a house you stumbled into owning, become the head of two guilds, whoops its been 100 hours maybe I'll try to do the main quest on a new character this time' gameplay that Bethesda has going on. I think its because it's one of the open worlds where most objects can be interacted with; picked up, stolen, thrown around, etc, instead of just being a static area with a couple of action prompts (or a destructible area that resets when you leave the zone, or whatever). The fact that the game has to keep track of the fork you shoved into a barrel 30 hours ago is also probably the reason all their games are buggy as poo poo, but that's the price of a strong design ethos  Fallout 4's main quest and voiced protagonist are both pretty bad, but the fact that it's the only Fallout game with remotely good combat helps overlook that. They also do a few funny things with the VA that also help (slurring dumb poo poo when they get drunk and screaming like a mental invalid with the Idiot Savant perk mostly). They also made power armor interesting for the first time since....Fallout 1, I think? Ignoring the fact that New Vegas exists and is one of the best RPGs of all time for a minute, 4 is basically a huge improvement over Fallout 3 in every way that matters.

Spoiling Zelda’s plot is like spoiling a Miyazaki game’s story. Yeah the land is dying because the ruler got too greedy for life/power and now I’ve got to link/snuff out the source of that power. But if you spoiled the elevator down to the subterranean ruins I’d be pissed. Anyway, in my first play through I’m totally gonna link the fires of rubicon. Another cycle of destruction is worth that sweet coral.

Jedi Survivor didn't really need to steal the stupid shrines from BoTW. They are kinda tedious.

Yeah, I liked the meditation chambers. There are only a handful and they're completely optional. You can skip them if puzzles aren't your thing and still have a character strong enough for the end game. It's not really new to the series either. Fallen Order had the much bigger puzzle ruins that were mandatory, and they were copying the Tomb Raider reboot's ruins initially. So, if you don't like them, then good news, they took them out of the critical path for the sequel. Bugblatter fucked around with this message at 01:22 on May 2, 2023 |

Wow I had no idea Rogue Legacy 2 didn't get a PS release. Weird. I'm guessing MS did some sort of exclusivity but it also got a switch port so... Anyways this game rules hopefully it comes to PS soon.

I looked it up on the Switch store but from the gameplay video I think the low res would kill me. e: Apparently it just hit its first anniversary and they released their last content update. Maybe if there was a year-long exclusivity thing then the port might be announced soon? Phenotype fucked around with this message at 05:38 on May 2, 2023 |

Finished the Coruscant mission in Jedi Survivor. Screen tearing in performance mode has been pretty outrageous, which is a drag because all of the stuff whizzing around everywhere is really cool looking. This stuff never used to bother me that much but I've been spoiled by the last few AAA games I've played on ps5 running really well. I can tell this game is going to be a lot of fun, though.

Jedi game's good so far, I'm near the end of the main storyline got all the traversal tools and abilities. biggest complaint is performance. it'll run fine, mostly, but drat it takes so long to load into the cantina and the texture pop in is pretty absurd considering its on PS5. second biggest complaint is the goddamn map. hated that stupid rear end holo map in the first game, it's still utterly dogshit in this game too. other than that the characters are great still, the story is solid if a bit weaker than the first, i shockingly love the drat cantina especially once you get dj robot to spin some beats and little scottish fisherman to make you a cool tank of fish, and oh god do i loving love the blaster / saber combo. its sooooooo satisfying, god how did i play the first game without it. there's a move you can unlock in the skill tree for it where if you shoot right as they attack (ie shoot instead of parry) you'll shotgun blast their rear end 10 yards away. gently caress saber parries, gently caress perfect dodges, perfect shotgun parry's are the light and the truth now oh also some sick fits in this game, they got a lot better at making cool clothes for cal. its a good sequel. i hope they make a 3rd one and really go wild with it Relentlessboredomm fucked around with this message at 07:04 on May 2, 2023 |

They put his offspring as a trap in this one and then there's a loving tear thing where you have to fight both the OG evil frog and his offspring at the same time. Few things more satisfying than killing both of those assholes with a blaster/saber combo but also i hate them and would prefer to see them no more.

the other thing ive liked about this jedi series is the first one was actually my first full soulslike game. i rented sekiro on launch with zero knowledge of From or the souls formula and bounced off hard (gently caress that horse general). getting through the first jedi game is what got me up to speed enough that i tried out elden ring at launch and that was the best gaming decision ive made in ages. ive since beaten ds3 and i started bloodborne but really thought there might be a patch for it so i pausedJBP posted:Are you referring to Rick? I laughed. lol yes i used my trusty blaster right as i read the boss name and heard his warcry and i just could not stop laughing. it was almost exactly the scene from Raiders where Indy just shoots the dude doing crazy sword stuff Relentlessboredomm fucked around with this message at 07:36 on May 2, 2023 |

I bought Dredge because Huber was so overwhelmingly hyped about it. Fishing mini-games crossed with advanced Resident Evil puzzle shape inventory management. Really, really quick loop, with a fun ship upgrade system. There's this Chthonic mystery happening, and I am afraid to touch it and mostly stick to day fishing and not relying on that engine for too long, but I'm pulling up more pulsating weird fish and I am hallucinating more rocks the longer I spend time in the fog. I really dig the rhythm of this game so far, still in the unspooling, exploratory phase. The rate at which they're rolling out new information is really strong over the first few hours. Let's see if it holds up over the game's reported 12 hour runtime.

I feel like my brain must be broken since I find the map pretty reasonable in Jedi Survivor. I've been using it to find collectibles without any trouble. I thought the one in FO was completely illegible, but Survivor's is more or less the Metroid Prime map, no? Separating zones by color might be a good idea, but what's there gets the job done.

I played Fallen Order all the way up to the point of no return part and then just stopped. I felt like I had played enough, which is weird because I spent a good amount of time grabbing stuff and I was enjoying what I played I just did not see it through to the very end. I am not really into star wars though so maybe that is the reason why. I have seen the 9 main films which are fine, and really liked the droids cartoon. However, I tried to watch the mandalorian a few times but fell asleep

Hmm, I incorrectly assumed I was at the end and only had a denouement left. Turns out this game is bigger than I thought. It has a lot of spectacle then, not yet sure about its ending.
