I would love Darkest Dungeons 1 & 2 if the combat wasn't so painfully slow.

I said come in! posted:I would love Darkest Dungeons 1 & 2 if the combat wasn't so painfully slow. I get that totally. I kinda like it being slow but yeah - there's a snappier version that could exist. I've been enjoying Warriors of the Nile 2 - do the Disgaea games play anything like that? Tactical turnbased thing? I haven't played much of that kind of game before and I already own some Disgaeas from bundles and such.

Bad Seafood posted:First I've heard of it, not that I doubt it's less popular than Higurashi. The anime bombed, but the anime adaptation was pretty poor. Do you have a link? That's because it's a low-resolution screenshot, not because of how the game actually looks. Just getting rid of the dumb bobblehead proportions alone makes it look better.

Never heard of this game but I wish impulse bought that instead of Riftbound this morning - a sort of Plants VS Zombie deck builder ish kinda game. The Roguelite mode feels way too hard, Campaign is okay but features become inexplicably active/inactive on random missions so far and in general the game just lacks a lot of polish. Like sometimes you can Evolve your plants, sometimes you can't and I have no idea why. Only 3.5 hours played but I'll give it a little longer but I'm not eager to get back to it.

Foul Fowl posted:i would include marketing game features that aren't in the game under 'exaggerations and/or lies' (bethesda tends to be guilty of this for all their games) but maybe that's just me. i got burned by black & white 2 and fable 1 & 2 by the original bullshitter peter molyneux way back when so i learned my lesson early. Ironically I don't think any of the Molyneux games had a big blow up on release, it was always a slow realization to disappointment. The fastest way to an immediate angry reaction is to break fan expectations. Metroid is a shooter now. Instead of playing Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney you're playing Apollo Justice Ace Attorney. The next Supergiant game is not a beat em up but Magical Basketball. Should the fans be ignored sometimes? Probably. But pissing off the fans is always going to get this kind of backlash.

It can only be called Darkest if it comes from the Darkest region of France. otherwise it's just sparkling blackness

Was going to make a joke about the sequel to Lord of the Fallen being called Lords of the Fallen but then I looked it up and the original was already called Lords of the Fallen and the sequel is going to be called The Lords of the Fallen which is even dumber? Best of luck to that studio. The first game was forgettable, hopefully they can blunder into making something good.

I just played through Outer Wilds for the first time. The base game is very good, despite somewhat disappointing ending. The DLC on the other hand, had also pretty good story but the gameplay was loving atrocious.

Hexworks previous game was the 2014 release of Lords of the Fallen. What have they been doing this entire time?

I still wouldn’t be too potentially excited for The Lords of the Fallen because I also seem to remember them giving it to one studio initially and then eventually taking it away from that studio. That said what they’ve shown in the last couple months does actually look kinda cool so I hope they get it right.

More like Peter Folie à Deux (in this case representing the shared psychosis between his creative overreach and the consumers who still believe in him)

it was not considered good journalistic practice to conduct the interview that way, but Peter deserved it for the absolute megalie that was the Kinect Milo demo

It definitely violated decorum and Walker will never get to interview anybody again but Molyneux deserved it. IIRC the first winner of his cube game was supposed to get a cut of its profits. Some kid won and Molyneux never paid out.
